I read most of his speeches and I think there are a lot of conservative strands of thought in there (self-reliance, self-defense,etc).

But let’s be clear, he would totally agree with CRT, 1619 project type thinking.

I think Malcolm X would describe the fundamental points of the social justice ideology (to which you subscribe) as the epitome of white supremacy. The idea that blacks are too weak, stupid or inept to make their own path without the guidance and help of their white leftist allies is much more paternalistically racist than anything emanating from the political right. Even HBO's "The Wire" touched on this topic. Bunny Colvin (a black cop) told white liberal Carcetti he had more respect for the lone segregationist in the neighborhood than anyone else, because "he always knew where he stood."




Malcolm's words for white allies were to offer your advice, but then step aside and let black people lead. And who am I to tell him otherwise?

White self-proclaimed moderates/liberals can be foxes for sure, and often are, but I do find it fascinating though how conservatives have wrapped themselves in this circumstantial alt-narrative where they are really the torch-bearers and protectors of Civil Rights via....denigrating Black Lives Matter, passing laws to minimize the teaching of America's slave history in schools, having meltdowns when a black person gets cast in a former white role, mocking other whites who claim to care about black issues, and spend most of their days whining on places like here, Facebook, and Nextdoor about black people in their communities.

It's an interesting form of "support," I'll say that

Anyways, this got moved to the tard board, so I'm out

He was blinded by hatred and consumed by collectivism. Very smart but not wise.

I don’t think he would agree with CRT. That is exactly the type of mindset he walked away from. He was intelligent & bold enough to realize the damage, & stand up against it.

As far as revisionist history, that would’ve made him irrelevant.

I'd be happy to replace Kwanza or Juneteenth bullshite with Malcom X day



I'll give you Kwanza, but why Juneteenth? Is it bullshite to use a day to celebrate liberation from bondage? Really?

It seems like that would be kind of a big deal. Do you think it's bullshite that Jews celebrate Passover? Or that Americans celebrate Independence Day?

I don't know. They both seem like silly hastily created holidays.

I bet 99% of the population doesn't even know what Juneteenth is.

I do know Kwanzaa is complete BS.

What the...?

It took over 150 years to establish a day to celebrate the end of slavery in America. You find that too hasty?

Conservatives hated liberals/moderates cause they wanted no change to Civil Rights laws


Yeah, you are FOS. The Civil Rights Bill was passed because of Republicans. The opposition were racist Democrats.

Malcolm and King both fought for the same goal, except Malcolm saw no issue with violoence if necessary.

You can point to opposition of both, but it's clear the majority were from the Democratic side.

I’d vote for Malcom X over any UniParty® establishment drone.

He correctly identified the real cause of many of the black’s societal woes.


Who was a bigger proponent of Liberty & Empowerment for the black community? MLK or Malcom X?



Malcolm X:

“….Well, any form of integration, forced integration, any effort to force integration upon whites is actually hypocritical. If a white man puts his arm around me voluntarily, that’s brotherhood. But if you hold a gun on him and make him embrace me and pretend to be friendly or brotherly toward me, then that’s not brotherhood, that’s hypocrisy. And what America is trying to do is pass laws to force whites to pretend that they want Negroes into their schools or in their places of employment. Well, this is hypocrisy, and this makes a worse relationship between black and white, rather than if this could be brought about on a voluntary basis.”

“….Instead of the negro leaders having the black man begging for a chance to dine in white restaurants, the negro leaders should be showing the black man to do something to strengthen his own economy, to give himself an independent economy, or to provide job opportunities for himself. Not begging for a cup of coffee in a white man’s restaurant.”

“….When you are equal with another person, the problem of integration doesn’t even arise. It doesn’t come up. The Chinese in this country aren’t asking for integration. The Japanese aren’t asking for integration. The only minority in America that’s asking for integration is the so-called Negro, primarily because he is inferior, not inherently inferior, but he’s economically, socially, politically inferior. And this exists because he has never tried to stand on his own two feet and do something for himself. He has filled the role of a beggar.”

“….The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros, and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked, or deceived by the white liberal then Negros would get together and solve our own problems.”

A white pastor moved to the Delta and started a meeting of all pastors in the area. Both white and black. One of the black pastors thought it was a great idea, but he also shared that many will not come and could not come because promininent black agitators would discourage any unity


Interesting. Where and when did this happen?

This, but the reason why Farrakhan had him murdered was his insight he saw at Mecca.


Two men convicted in 1965 Malcolm X assassination set to be exonerated….

The FBI has been implicated in the coverup of exculpatory evidence that would have helped the case of the two men originally accused of the murder.

Was this because the actual assassins were FBI assets?

Putting that aside, anyone else note that any knowledgeable discussion about the assassination of high profile political figures from that era invariably involves Deep State intrigue?

My god, have you people even read books about Malcom X?
The foremost reason he was assassinated was that he was a threat to the Nation Of Islam and Elijah Mohammed. Before he was killed, they put a bomb in his car, tried to have him evicted from the house that the Nation owned, and then burned his house down. As soon as he exposed Elijah M. as an adulterer and rapist of young girls, he started getting threats. Stop super-imposing modern day villains like the FIB and white liberals as the main reason he was killed. By the way, there is a high probability that Farakan (sp?) Was involved in his murder.

Malcom X was not a puppet for the Dems like Dr. King was.

MLK was no puppet. That was a great man and a great leader. Sure, he was a philanderer, but so was John F Kennedy and he is considered a national icon.

BTW, MLK wanted to make common cause with white people. Malcolm X hated us.
