Joe Biden – Self Equanimity http://selfequanimity.com Current Affairs Sat, 18 Feb 2023 06:15:40 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.4 https://i0.wp.com/selfequanimity.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/SE-Copy.png?fit=32%2C32 Joe Biden – Self Equanimity http://selfequanimity.com 32 32 176655959 Boy????? Really???? http://selfequanimity.com/boy-really/ Sat, 18 Feb 2023 06:13:27 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=2024 I want Biden supporters to tell me this,  I may have misinterpreted this, but what did Joe Biden mean when he called, the newly elected Governor of Maryland, BOY????  I would like to know. How does Joe Biden keep getting away with this?  I want to know his secret!!!  I would like to get away with a few of these myself, clearly, President Joe Biden never gets in trouble when he says things like this, I mean the author of the 1994 crime bill, the man responsible for over-policing, the man who didn’t want his kids growing up in a racial jungle, yet he keeps getting a pass. I wonder why??.   I don’t see the outrage, I actually don’t see anything.

Some may say he is talking about something else or trying to give More a compliment, but then I should ask what would have happened if this was said by Trump, even if he didn’t mean it in a racist way. what would have happened?? This is why  I need some of his supporters to explain this to me, OUTRAGE !! OUTRAGE!!!!! but of course, I’m sure he didn’t mean it.  We will do what we always do, forgive Joe Biden, Oh another law Biden created is the 1986 Anti-Drug Abuse ACT. This specifically punishes black people for minor offenses, I’m not advocating for drugs here, but I’m pointing out the hypocrisy, it is amazing how we have a Fentanyl epidemic and no laws or Acts have been enacted to address this problem when black people do it however, laws have to be written and we have to be thrown in jail. Oh let us see who were the co-sponsors of that bill,

Oh,  Sen Robert Byrd, and Strom Thurmond, if you don’t know these 2 ,I will advise you to do some research.

“You got a hell of a new governor in Wes Moore, I tell ya,” Biden said, eliciting applause. “He’s the real deal, and the boy looked like he could still play. He got some guns on him.”

A$AP Rocky vs Brittney Griner http://selfequanimity.com/aap-rocky-vs-brittney-griner/ Sat, 18 Feb 2023 05:25:04 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=2011 After watching the Superbowl, this idea came to me, it is an interesting idea but I do believe in the world of cause and effect.  I also came across a nice picture of a couple with their cute baby.

in the past months, we have had a few things happen that might be of interest but one has to wonder, or let us say I asked the question what if?  I saw a picture of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky and their baby and couldn’t help but smile. This is where I started to wonder what if, you see in July 2019 A$AP Rocky was arrested in Stockholm Sweden because his entourage got into a fight with someone on the street. Silly him, he recorded the incident and posted it on Instagram. He was arrested and detained in Stockholm.  The interesting thing is that Al Sharpton was initially contacted by Rocky’s family to help with his release, yes the same Al Sharpton who is always first on the scene to talk about racism, Police Brutality, etc. The same one who didn’t know Trump was racist. You would think he would be able to do something (Ha ha).  we all know how that turned out.

Then-president Trump Tweeted his support for A$AP Rocky, the former US Ambassador to Sweden asked the US government to do something,  well after a few days, Rocky was released and was given a  suspended sentence, although he was asked to pay $12,000  in damages. Then deputy Prime Minster of Sweden said that President Trump threatened Sweden with sanctions if Rocky wasn’t released.  I thought Whoa!!!! but Trump is a racist!!!!!!! , he couldn’t have done this to help a rapper who kept getting into trouble, could he ?? Moreover, he didn’t have to……….  Up until Today Trump hasn’t said anything about that, much like he didn’t say anything about what he did for Jennifer Hudson, they came out to say it.   As much as Trump is blamed for everything, even the balloon that was shot out of the sky a few days ago, he has been out of office for a few years and still getting the blame .. interesting!!!!!

I couldn’t help but think, had Trump not done this, A$AP Rocky wouldn’t have been released, and the union between Rihanna and Rocky wouldn’t have happened. When it comes to Biden, only God knows what he would have done. The women Biden chooses have interesting similarities.

At the end of the day, I don’t demand love from my politicians/representatives,  for I don’t know them  I only know what they show me or tell me, I only ask that they do right by me.

Black People built America, Trump said it out loud!!!! http://selfequanimity.com/black-people-built-america-trump-said-it-out-loud/ Sun, 12 Feb 2023 01:16:12 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1992 This will be a short one,  I was surprised this wasn’t a hit on the mainstream media,  this wasn’t repeated over and over again, just the narrative that he was a racist.  if we are looking for any proof that the mainstream media shapes the narrative by using very emotional arguments.

The fact is that not even the Democratic darling Joe Biden has said this, coming to think of it not even the first black president said this, he said he wanted to be the president for ALL  Americans. it’s been two years since the election and I’m only finding this out. if we all are, to be honest, it was us black people who help Joe Biden win the election, even though Joe Biden openly insulted us, and he chose a confused lady to be her vice president, one who kept black men in jail for big business, oh Biden did the same thing, I guess everyone was more emotional than factual.

For anyone who doubts this, I have attached the audio, you can listen to it yourself.

Now the difficult question…… Who is more likely to pay reparations?? Biden or Trump?????

What is really going on ? http://selfequanimity.com/what-is-really-going-on/ http://selfequanimity.com/what-is-really-going-on/#comments Sun, 29 Jan 2023 21:24:41 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1947 I’m sure everyone has heard about the unarmed black man by the name of Tyre Nichols who was severely beaten by 5 black police officers.  People are protesting now as we speak.  This has an interesting twist to it, the twist is that everyone involved in this was black.  I’m not here to judge, but everyone knows that they (the police officers) were too harsh on this individual.  I’m sure most people have seen the body cam footage. I don’t think the intent was to kill him. In the video, there was a white officer who initially tased  Mr. Nichols, but he didn’t partake in the brutal beating of Mr. Nichols. He died a few days later in the hospital.  This whole situation is a sad one, but I’m here to ask questions.

Tyre Nichols

What is this, Police brutality?  I don’t know if anyone can qualify this as white supremacy or is it?. we have to keep in mind that everyone who was responsible for brutally beating Mr. Nichols is black.  Wasn’t the argument made that we will be better off policing our own people? what happened ?? Let us not forget that 2 of the 5 police officers who shot and killed Sean Bell in 2006 were Black. 2 of the 5 police officers who were responsible for the death of Freddie Gray were also black. 58% of the police force in Memphis are black. I don’t know about anyone but what’s worse in this crazy world is dying at the hands of our own people. Maybe it is time we start looking at black-on-black crime, and black-on-black killing,  after all, most of the rappers if not all of the rappers have been killed by black people.

These police officers belong to a unit known as the S-C-O-R-P-I-O-N unit. (Street Crimes Operations to Restore Peace in Our Neighborhoods )and they are deployed to high-crime areas. That unit has been dissolved.  

Another very important question, this is a controversial one, if people really believe that some communities are over-policed, then we should question the people responsible for that, in this case, it is none other than our current president Joe Biden, people should have read the 1994 crime bill and every bill he helped pass or passed during his time in the Senate. Why aren’t people asking him to fix the problem he created?  I don’t believe this is a no justice, no peace situation, because the justice system was swift to fire them and charge them with second-degree murder.

The only thing I will say to this is that maybe it is time for us to look at the mental state of individuals before hiring them as police officers, regardless of race. After all, we are all trying to live as long as we can in this world!

The World Economic Forum just ended? http://selfequanimity.com/the-world-economic-forum-just-ended/ http://selfequanimity.com/the-world-economic-forum-just-ended/#respond Sat, 28 Jan 2023 20:32:11 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1936 Every day, I hear black people brag about how intelligent we are, not to mention how informed we are, coming to look at it seems most people are spewing the same rhetoric. Oh it is so easy to know one thing or the other, but to have sophisticated thinking abilities, well that takes certain skills. .. Moreover  I don’t think we care about the things that really matter. if 2020 has taught us anything at all it has taught us that politics is a very emotional affair Friendships ended because of politics, families stopped talking to each other, etc. This tells us that politics have very little to do with facts, besides if we want facts, we would have to read and reading is boring.  The whole thing is based on who likes who. You would think that in this age of information, many of us would be a little more informed than usual.

Condoleezza Rice
Condoleezza Rice

This brings me to my topic.  Today I’m talking about the World Economic Forum. an event that takes place every year. Let me enlighten you. The World Economic Forum is a meeting of the most powerful people in the world, of course with power comes influence and money.  This event as I stated already, happens every year at a place called Davos, in Switzerland. They meet and decide world policy. Every influencer be it an actor, people in positions of power, or just plain rich, etc has been to the World Economic Forum in Davos at one time or another.  Arent we curious to know what happens there?? This isn’t a conspiracy theory, and it is hardly a secret at all,  they release a report of their meetings every year, and this year’s report is about 100 pages.  .  Anyone can get a report of these yearly meetings if they so choose, it’s no secret at all.  The World Economic Forum even has a website where people can go and read whatever information they want.  Again these people shape Global policy. 

Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Thabo Mbeki, Tony Blair  Bono Olusegun Obasanjo

my question is if these people are the ones responsible for current events in today’s world. why arent we more informed about this??? informed enough to ask questions ??

Bono & Angela Merkel

At the end of the day we are more concerned with things we cannot control, and those things become our natural opium, we are not concerned about policy and where these people are taking the world, some of these powerful people were elected by their nations.

People like

Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie

Jeff Bezos

Jack Ma

Donald Trump

Will-I AM

Matt Damon

Richard Gere

Condoleezza Rice

George Bush

Joe Biden

Hillary Clinton

Bono

Leonardo Dicarprio

John Kerry

Pharrell

Forest Whitaker

Bill Gates

Barack Obama

Just to name a few, just anyone who is someone in this world has been to Davos, our own black billionaires have been there, these people shape global policy yet we hardly know that this meeting takes place. I think we should do a better job of being and staying informed. I’m not here to give anyone a history lesson, I’m asking the question of us being more informed about world affairs. Today we have no excuse.

As black people we say we believe in so-called White supremacy,  well the first thing about white supremacy is that it is Global and international, if anyone thinks I’m lying all they have to do is look at the institution of slavery, slavery was international, it is almost as if there was an international coordination,  and also an international coordination when it was abolished. Other examples are Wall Street, trading, etc. Everything happens globally, the world is too vast and broad for us to limit ourselves to one country. International Affairs is a must.

Student Loans forgiven, Now we all can be rich!!! http://selfequanimity.com/student-loans-forgiven-now-we-all-can-be-rich/ http://selfequanimity.com/student-loans-forgiven-now-we-all-can-be-rich/#respond Wed, 21 Sep 2022 03:28:06 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1883 Man!  That Biden ,he is just a good guy and feels for the common man doesn’t he ???? He is the best president since Barack Obama!!!, the closest we can get to a third Obama term. He has forgiven student loans up to $10,000. If your loans are only up to $10,000 then you are completely in debt FREE!!!!. WHAT AN HONORABLE GESTURE!!!!! it will cost $300 billion while we have $1.6 trillion in student loan debt.

Hmmmmmm not so fast, there are many moving parts to this. First and foremost, we are not asking how long this loan forgiveness is for?,  is it for new borrowers???. If we are honest with ourselves we should be asking how we even got here in the first place and what we can do to solve and prevent future generations from suffering a similar fate. 

     The economy is an interesting one, there are good sides to it like any economy, before we understand what is going on we need to consider history.  To start with, the loan industry is made up of bubbles, and as time goes on bubbles do burst. 

Once upon a time, you could pay for college with a part-time job,  college wasn’t that expensive and with a little discipline, that dream could be achieved. This started a long time ago. Well, some say it was during Ronald Reagan’s era others say it was earlier than that,  as far back as world war 2, but all of the politicians from the 50s have contributed to high college tuition costs. This was all due to  Certain policies that were put in place even   Barack Obama put in a few policies of his own a few years ago.  This all started with the best of intentions I must say, well Russia had just launched something into space, and there was competition, America needed to educate its population,  This was in the time of Dwight Eisenhower,  So in order to have a more educated population than the Russians, in order to beat them at the space race, the National Defense Education Act was enacted in 1958 and that was the beginning of all this.  As time went on there was the Higher  Education Act of 1965  which freed up more money for higher education. By 1970 more people went to college than ever before, but like I said before it was the beginning of all this student loan madness that we have today. The long and short of it is once the college loan industry was in full swing tuition costs rose up because of course anyone can borrow the money and go to school, so colleges say hey even if we charge more anyone can borrow the money, that is what loans are for ….. because of this and other sources of revenue colleges have large endowments funds which are managed by hedge funds managers.  interesting .  Now for time purposes, i will summarize a few things about how we got here. Most people don’t remember 4 presidents ago so ill start with Obama,  According to Mr. Obama, he didn’t want to stand with the banks so he cut out the banks allowing the department of education to become the largest creditor/Bank then outsourcing most of the work to private companies. Wow who could have seen this disaster coming huh??? 

        Well so this is a brief history of how we got into this mess, so if this systemic structure is not fixed, well the loan forgiveness would mean a bandaid on a problem that goes deeper than a mere blister. This may surprise a few people but we have 9  presidents who never went to college, 

George Washington,

Andrew Jackson,

Martin Van Buren,

Zachary Taylor,

Millard Fillmore,

Abraham Lincoln,

Andrew Johnson,

Grover Cleveland,

Harry Truman.

Also some of these schools have large endowment funds, so I would say the schools can make more scholarships to students can’t they? $300 billion will come from taxpayers…. while their endowment funds are intact, Harvard alone has over $50 billion dollars in assets….. and it is under management, like a hedge fund …. Interesting!!!!!

Britney Griner, Jan 6, Abortion Laws, Gas Prices, and the coming recession, The Hypocrisy!!! http://selfequanimity.com/britney-griner-jan-6-abortion-laws-gas-prices-and-the-coming-recession-the-hypocrisy/ http://selfequanimity.com/britney-griner-jan-6-abortion-laws-gas-prices-and-the-coming-recession-the-hypocrisy/#respond Tue, 23 Aug 2022 21:42:59 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1867 We all agree that we live in strange times but what I don’t understand is the hypocrisy, is almost as if we protest what we are told to protest on, let us start with January 6th, Frankly, I don’t understand why we even mention this, but let me say a few things, these are facts, 

  1. Democrats did say Trump stole the election. Hillary Clinton went around saying this, somehow everyone has forgotten about that, people like Maxine Walters and others did go to congress that day asking, Vice president JOE BIDEN, who is our current president, not to certify the results. (Trump’s Win).
  2. Trump heard about some people planning to start some sort of violence during the protest, she asked Nancy Pelosi to deploy the National Guard to keep the protest orderly, well she refused. well, they say there is no evidence of that like there is evidence of every conversation they ever had between one another.

I wonder why they want to keep this going, during  Trump’s presidency,  everyone claimed they had evidence of  Russia collusion. That Russia helped Trump to win the election. That turned out to be false and a waste of Tax Payer’s money.  Now let us come to the FBI raid.  When it comes to these things people don’t even remember a month ago let alone go into research and read some history.  There is the president’s records act, enacted in 1978.   the short version of this is that presidents do take some records home, when they do, the national archives can request these documents back, depending on what they are.  They couldn’t him on that act so they are trying to get him on espionage, saying he sold nuclear secrets to Russia, if i didn’t know better I could swear, they were obsessed with Russia, first, there was Russian collusion, which turned out to be false, now this… the public shouldn’t be believing this, in fact, we should be thinking of the future and our survival for that matter and how to combat inflation. 

 This brings me to the Britney Griner case, why do people believe Russia is being harsh when it is a sovereign nation and has the right to enact its own laws? People in our country don’t understand that you cannot do anything you want in this universe!!!!!!.  if you do, there are consequences.  Every country is different, marijuana has been legal in Europe, and the Netherlands for a long time, but they don’t just put it in their pockets while travelling to some other country where it might be illegal. There are some countries that have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to anything considered a narcotic, and they have their reasons for that.  Therefore when travelling one should do their homework before travelling, here are a few countries that have to impose harsh penalties on offenders,  we have North Korea, which everyone would suspect they do, Japan, Vietnam, China, Iran, Indonesia ( in this country, you can face the death penalty by firing squad) why you might ask, well they are struggling with a severe drug epidemic, so they enacted a zero-tolerance policy. Sweden also did the same thing since too many people were developing drug addictions, we sit in front of our TVs thinking well we should be allowed to do what we want everywhere, even in some other countries. This has nothing to do with. before you go to other countries, read their policies, and their laws,  even Sweden has a zero-tolerance policy therefore if you have anything with any narcotic in it, you need to throw it away before going. For example, I will never take hemp seed oil to any of these countries and that is that.

Now gas prices,  when this began, we were told it was because of the war in Ukraine, which was totally false, although prices have gone down a little bit, we still haven’t been told why this happened, One reason is inflation, but there are other factors that we are not being told. if you ask me, this deserves a protest, but no one is protesting these things…A recession is coming, we don’t know how bad it is going to be, yet we are being told all these lies and that the recession wouldn’t be that bad because the job market is still strong, but a recession,  is a slow process that is what people don’t get. The funny thing is they just signed the inflation reduction act, which is supposed to combat inflation, it is $400 billion, how do you combat inflation by printing more ?????? …These are interesting times.
