“No one deserves to die”

1. Pedophiles
2. War Criminals
3. Rapists

Explain why they don’t deserve it.

The community isn’t a monolith, but ok.

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 18h

When and where did i tell black people to protest? Idk. I didn’t even imply that’s what we should do.

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 18h

Who tf said anything about protesting dude?

The comment is asking about people who claim this isn’t black people’s issue when it’s now literally sitting on our neck. you’ve even pointed out that it’s always been our issue.

Leave me tf alone bro, you’ve succeeded at nothing here.

And if the plan is inaction, and sitting around waiting for ice to come to us and fuck with us, then point me to someone actually doing something.

Or just continue the inaction and don’t reply to me. Both are fine.

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 18h

Instead of berating me over some shit you’ve seen other people say. That would be way more helpful than anything you’ve said so far.

If there is a plan on organizing to counter or defend from this, I’ll find a way to pass it on for black people to actually benefit. If not, then just say that.

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 18h

For some reason you think I’m enticing black people to go out and get shot or hurt by ICE and nothing I’ve said has been even remotely close to that sentiment.

We still have a chance to have an actual conversation and come to an understanding about how we’re moving different / organizing.

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 19h

But i do read bro. I know what “peaceful protests” are for as you say.

When are you gonna have a conversation with me instead talking at me and assuming what i think and what i know?

I haven’t done any of that to you.

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 19h

[What is this guy cussin me out for?🤨 fuck i do to him?]

So if this has always affected us, then has it always been our fight? cause I’m talking to the people say it’s *not* our fight.

If only white people can fix it then what we been fighting for this whole time?

dj.jams 🎧 @dlvlotus.bsky.social · 19h

But black folks are outside and it doesn’t really matter if they are or not because ICE has already started raiding people.

Can’t say I’m a fan. Brockhampton birthed some sons and they’re just not living up to the sound. The quirky, distortion heavy production is fine. The multi layered vocal stems and back and forth verses are cool. These guys need to…

Where’s the “this ain’t our fight” crowd?

“Why you running?” the federal agent asks the young Black man underneath him.

As the young man attempts to answer, a person can be heard in the video screaming, “he’s a citizen!”
