    Yes, "Rock A Bye Baby" must be renamed because Rock and Roll was culturally appropriated by white people from black people.

    Henceforth, "Rock A Bye Baby" shall simply be called "Bye, White Baby".

    Where in the **** do you find this kinda stuff? Thanks. Links to links to links to finally see this is just a group of performance artists that are most certainly enjoying the hype.

    Will they all be allowed on a debate stage?

    Okay, I'll answer that. "Yes, if the debate host is CNN."

    Maybe Corn Row Joe and the T-bone Corn Pops could release their new single "Hairy Legs, Swimming Pools, and Roaches" at the same time. That would be an instant Honky Rap hit!

    Wow. "Hello. My name is Navild Acosta, formerly known as Niva Acosta. I am transgender, gender non-conforming, first generation, Afro-Dominican-American, born to my HIV positive and teenage mother, Gesenya Acosta."

    Now that is some impressive identity!!! I bet she needs at least two pages for a job resume. Oh, wait. Resumes are probably racist, since jobs are only a social construct invented by oppressive capitalist white supremacists right?

    O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
    Deny thy father and refuse thy name.
    Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love
    And I’ll no longer be a Capulet.
    ‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy:
    Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
    What’s Montague? It is nor hand nor foot
    Nor arm nor face nor any other part
    Belonging to a man. O be some other name.
    What’s in a name? That which we call a rose
    By any other name would smell as sweet;
    So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call’d,
    Retain that dear perfection which he owes
    Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
    And for that name, which is no part of thee,
    Take all myself.

    Pure genius. "We need a financial strategist and producer to help us make this project solvent. We need galleries to store and to display the objects when they are not touring. We need accomplices to help us commit the crime of paying black communities to sleep (for photo ops). We need a film crew to follow us as we negotiate and navigate this project with white institutions. We need a long-term production and research residencies and warm locations with strong black diasporac presence. We need engineering and tech consultancies. We need brand partnerships to create a "Black Power Naps" lounge-wear line and sleep fragrances. We need "Black Power Naps" to be installed permanently in every state in America. We need to work with city commissioners and urban planning to impact public space as well as policy. We need a house in the Caribbean to make "Black Power Naps" a retreat center. We need more money. We need reparations. (Other girl: "PERIOD!")

    Good grief!!! These girls are seriously geniuses at using U.S. capitalism to market a product concept. I studied marketing in college and feel so humbled at how these young gals excel at capitalism and entrepreneurship in the 21st Century. Bravo!!!!! I wish them success. They'll probably be millionaires in a year or two (and share very little with any poor people they leave behind).

    America works! Capitalism is unbeatable! All you need is an idea, a marketing plan, and a financial backer. :applause::applause::applause:

    If Shakespeare lived today, it would have been:

    Romeo (them/they), Romeo (them/they), Romeo (them/they)
    Deny thy/them/they father (he/him) and refuse thy/them/they name.
    Or if thou/thee/them wilt not, be but sworn my (she/her) love
    And I’ll (she/her) no longer be a Capulet (she/her).

    ...and so on.

    They are walking stereotypes.

    If the paper is white, its racist.

    Krane, I really like you but you can't be serious if you really believe that ALL ideas are worthy of consideration. There's some out there that are just plain dumb and worthy of being laughed at, and this idea is worthy of mockery. Blacks today suffer from spiritually-based insomnia passed down thru the genetic timeline? More likely they're just staying up too late. Or almost as likely, this is a way to score some free/paid nap time at work and getting away with it because of white guilt. Thank goodness I ain't white, maybe that's why it isn't working on me.

    I mean, if I took every idea that the kids at school said seriously ...

    Speaking of Shakespeare, Biden used the term "shylocks" a few years back.

    Look around you, we're having race riots and now apparently a secret police in the US. Maybe the issues dealing with race are worth taking into consideration for at the very least pragmatic reasons. Remember, it's not one or two issues that leads to violence. It's a movement of ideas, not necessarily spoken that leads to these movements. If we're talking about how black people lack access to healthcare, then we should look at why they lack access to healthcare. Stuff like sleep is a new idea, but it's one worth looking into and one that seemingly so far is backed up by stats.

    I'm not saying - and never have said - that there aren't ideas worth considering. I AM saying that some of them are ridiculous just on the face of it. And in this case probably worth a lawsuit. "Okay guys, only the black employees get a paid power nap at work because 140 years ago their ancestors were slaves."

    I'm telling you - that's gonna go down faster than Paris Hilton in a men's locker room.

    Portland. Unidentified federal officials (from DHS) are arresting "protesters" on the street and taking them away in unmarked cars.

    Now. If these people are "protesters" who have been identified as some of the Antifa, or other anarchists, who have destroyed or damaged federal property, then the federal officers arresting them are justified.

    We do need an explanation though, and soon.

    Following the lead of a LW poster, I am here to inform you that those were actors paid for by the Biden Campaign. Also, false flag operation. And something about a needle not moving.
