Well well well. You said it all and I agree with every word.

I receive so much gaslighting on my articles about Blacks supporting Blacks, that I can take a rocket to the moon. As you’ve stated, we need allies that bear fruit but we will not see that. We also need to stick together but we Blacks can’t even get on the same page of what we clearly see happening. We divide ourselves up because of politics, religion, lifestyles…but the fact of the matter is we are all we have.

In a recent article, I wrote about how I spend too much money on Asian products, from beauty to anime to food. Do you know what some commenters told me? They gaslit me by saying, “what makes you different from them if you generalize every Asian?”

All I was saying is that I need to pull back my support since I don’t see them supporting us.. at all.
