If anything it adds to his sincerity since he is lecturing against something that benefits him personally, but is detrimental to society as a whole (hes looking at the bigger picture).
Like if I was a multi-millionaire and a democrat. Personally the policies of Republicans are in my best interest (tax cuts) but I vote democrat because it is best for the majority of the country.
I really dont want to derail this thread tho. We'll agree to disagree?

You serious? The BPP is nothing compared to the Tea Party movement today.Originally Posted by fac3 tak30v312
Instead of bringing race into this ...... let me ask you guys a serious question why? Why is it that a party that is portrayed as being out of control and all out racist, being given this stage of power? The poster who compared the Black Panther's to the Tea Party is on the right track but derailed themself by attempting to bring in race.
.
.
One group had a consolidated power structure within and of itself, thus since the foundation of that structure couldn't be bought away, it was gunned down and poisoned .... So if that's the way America has continuously treated movements structured like the BPP, throughout the world why would it allow something like the Tea Party to survive and flourish?
.
.
All this "discussion" of white power and white privilege would make sense if we were still under the cloud of the 1900s ...... but in today's world the only privilege that matters is blood and money.. everything else is an abject on class warfare and race divisions ......... "that which cannot be controlled or manipulated will be destroyed" ........ Now one truly has to ponder on why does the Tea Party exist in this mutation of it's former self and for what purpose?

ya'll need to do your home work, and study the systematic racism this country has been perpetuating for years. We've always held the colored man down.
