His COMMENT isn't the focus.
His lack of foresight that this day was bound to come is. 8 kids, 3 women and the dude said he wanted more a few months ago.
So yea, of course he has to change his financial habits.

More discussion needs to happen about Black people - worldwide - and their affinity for/attraction to strongman figures.

Now do you think that is more of a Black thing than it is a human (nature) thing?

I wouldn't call it a Black thing. After all, South Americans have their own love affair with strongmen.
It's just that we appear to be very quick to embrace solutions offered by authoritarian personalities/attitudes, despite the fact that they have seldom worked in our favor.
This (specifically, the way Shady refers to HU players as "dumb and young"), what is happening in Burkina Faso (military guy took over, expelled the French and the US militaries, is having trouble controlling the islamist expansion and Tuareg rebellions, and is sending all dissidents and critics to the frontline while mounting endless PR campaigns to make folks think he's being effective), Dr Umar, and Snoop/Nelly participating in Trump's inauguration are some of the things that made me make the observation.

not to take away from your point but it is a captioning error, he says ‘them young brothers’ that social media auto-caption be giving folk fits if not double checked
regardless of phenotype, when it comes to how we generally interact at scale humans are humans across the board, sure there are cultural overlays that flavor the ting so it doesn’t always look the same…but it’s really wild knowing all that we do, that folk still want to ascribe difference, even if is negative, to our different groups…but i guess that’s just how our machine/software works

I lowkey want to see what happens if folks start pushing for the Holocaust to be removed from textbooks since they want to get rid of Black history teachings.

In September 2024, Terence Sutton Jr was sentenced to 66 months in prison while Andrew Zabavsky was sentenced to 48 months in prison over "an unauthorized police pursuit that ended in a collision on Oct. 23, 2020, that caused the death of Karon Hylton-Brown, 20, in Northwest Washington D.C.," the Justice Department said last year. The officers remained free pending the outcomes of their appeals.
The Metropolitan Police Department said Sutton, in his early 40s, and Zabavsky, in his mid-50s, were on "indefinite suspension without pay, pending our administration process."
Sutton was found guilty by a unanimous federal jury in late 2022, after a nine-week trial, of second-degree murder, conspiracy to obstruct, and obstruction of justice. The same jury found Zabavsky guilty of conspiracy to obstruct and obstruction of justice.
The jury had found that Sutton caused Hylton-Brown's death by driving a police vehicle in "conscious disregard" for an extreme risk of death or serious bodily injury to Hylton-Brown.
It also found that Sutton and Zabavsky conspired to hide from officials the circumstances of the traffic crash leading to Hylton-Brown's death.
The DC Police Union had sought a pardon for the two officers.
Sutton's attorney, Kellen Dwyer, said in a statement cited by CNN that while he and his client were "confident that the D.C. Circuit would have reversed this conviction, we are thrilled that President Trump ended this prosecution once and for all." Zabavsky's attorney, Christopher Zampogna, also thanked Trump.
Hylton-Brown's mother, Karen Hylton, told CNN before the announcement that she was shocked and cried when she learned of the potential pardons.
