New Black Panthers Turn on Obama in an N-Word, Uncle Tom Tirade (Content Warning)

He got you to watch him.

This racist idiot needs to stay home and continue to pick lint from his navel. We don't have enough problems in this country now without Shabing or whatever running his hate filled mouth.

Cut to what point? This man is very simple minded, ignorant, uneducated, and racist. He makes no valid point and speaks gibberish.

Which would explain the 2000 views, 250 comments and 42 FaceBook likes at this point, right?

It clings to the front page because people vote it up. That's how Current works. It's known as democracy, a foreign concept to Americans.

Promotion of censorship is not cool

Actually, that is not how current works.

First of all sir I am not even American. Second of all you are an idiot if you actually believe that there is anything democratic about this site. I guess you didnt get the memo... your vote doesnt count!

Underground organizations aren't written up. It's easy to call people fools with nothing to back it up.

Based on all the vitriol against this post, it's safe to assume most, if not all of it, is from right wing nuts, paid operatives, and political sell outs. The video makes a lot of sense, unlike any of the opposition to it.

The evidence I have is that this story was voted up by a lot of people, has over a thousand views, and tens of FaceBook likes. People find it something worthwhile. It's obvious it is anti-corporate and flies in the face of the American corporate oligarchy and so it "is safe to assume" the opposition is as I say. Yes, that's opinion and assumption, but based on reality, truth, and the democracy of public opinion. My opinion is no less worthy than yours.

I voted it up so people would see this idiot. It is simple. The more people who see this the more discredited this man becomes Just watch the video. If you give this guy any support you are as ignorant and race driven as he.

Let me get this straight. You voted it up to discredit it and I'm the idiot.

Defending this crap does not make you progressive, on the contrary, it is strong evidence that your judgement is not to be trusted.

Voting up a story does not mean agreement - it means the story is interesting. I post stories and vote stories up that I do not agree with, but that I find interesting and deserving comment and attention.

I thought you knew how Current operated. Apparently you are clueless. Pay attention, and try to figure it out.

It's amazing that you want to discredit this story and yet you vote it up. It seems it's not that you abhor or disagree with the story, you just want to see controversy.

When you vote for a President do you also not necessarily agree with his stands and just find him interesting and worthy of attention?

If something deserves attention it has merit of some kind. So the issues brought up by this video are important and worthy of attention even by your standards. So really we agree on this. Glad we cleared that up and you can see my way of thinking.

The lunatic ranting on the video discredits himself without my help.

Voting a story up on Current is not the same as voting for a presidential candidate. One votes stories up on Current that are worthy of note and comment, whether or not one agrees with the position(s) being taken is secondary.

For example, I would also vote up a story with a terrorist ranting, but that would not mean I agree with the words or positions being taken by the terrorist. And that does not mean I would support that terrorist in a presidential election.

I am surprised and sorry that you are so ignorant on these matters, given your extensive history here at Current. Also it seems to me in the past you were a reasonable, if not cynical, progressive Democrat. I don't remember you being on the crazy train. What happened?

I am surprised you would defend the rantings of this idiot. He shames the good name of the original Black Panthers and is really no more than a clown and a stooge reinforcing racist right wing talking points.

Look, it's not reasonable that Obama relentlessly plays both ends against the middle. He spews rhetoric to the effect that he is genuinely concerned about the people (and he may well be), while at the same time having been elected by Wall Street, giving them what ever they want at every turn, reneging on health care by ignoring both the public option and single payer (in favor of corporate insurance industry profit), expanding the Bush regime war mongering military industrial complex for eternity, and continuing to support the very corporate criminals, even in his own administration, who brought down the American economy in 2008 and even now continue to implement the very same practices with no reprimand whatsoever.

I'm sorry, but as unnerving, distasteful, immature, and moronic as it may sound, in light of these facts, "uncle tom" is more a compliment than a term of hate or ignorance. I completely identify and agree with the man in the video. He makes perfect sense. I feel his frustration and have no qualms to support his harsh words as his last refuge from the political impotence imposed on our country by this new American corporate oligarchy, which is riding the wave of Obama's rhetorical subversion of the american people. You are being taken for a ride by this skilled Chicago politician. Wake up and smell the nuclear waste.

By the way, Obama has said (as did FDR I believe) that if the people want him to act on their behalf and not that of private interests, they must MAKE him do so. In other words, before Obama does jack shit, we have to take to the streets (or maybe FaceBook would work) and revolt like there's never been a revolt before.

It's the truth, something often hard to swallow. Without it we are nothing.

Freedom of speech. A foreign concept?

A “buck” is a healthy and strong black male slave. Buck dancing often occurred at the slave masters/auctioneer’s request; it was a dance done for the entertainment of the master.

boooooooooo SPAM. -Vd !

never-mind. I thought it was funny, but I'm morbid.

How bout this one ----- Thats a man who can read the WHITE - ing on the wall.

I am Anglo,....I can say that and still be PC,.....I think.

and a supply of people who think that because they voted for him that he was gonna change everything about being president he has not put us in war f gadafi this guy should have been gone years ago rapist murderer hater of us f him

Calling the kettle black is not hate. It's calling him out. That's what America is based on. Freedom of speech. Ever heard of it?

Just like any other used car salesman.

and what thats the presidents fault no its the teachers i imagine you have no children in public schools when i went to school you could walk back two hours later and still talk to my teacher now if i dont get up there by four they are all gone.here in cleveland we have had two supers that took a half amillon when they left and schools are worse than ever i get paid to do my job wich i do to the best of my abilitys not relying on the pres or anyone else to do or help me with my job statistics mean nothing without the human element

Me too, Misti.He is damned if he do, and damned if he don't.

i don't know about other people, but I voted for him, because I didn't want to take a chance and end up with another Bush..I would much rather have an educated president that is brilliant and calm, opposed to an old, mean war-monger, and a complete idiot..

Lol. That's exactly what I am doing..Exercising my right! I just happen to disagree with the man on this issue..This man is disrespecting our president for doing what he felt was necessary..In the grand scheme of things, Malik Shabazz is ignorant, and irrelevant..

I have three children, all who are or have been in public schools, which are pretty much useless, seeing how I obtained a gainful career to support them all through self study alone.The point is that Obama, as a President, makes education a non-priority, as well as health care. Sure he pays lip service to these issues while selling out to Wall Street.

Brilliant and calm to lull you into complacency, just as his Wall Street backers wanted. I see he has succeeded. Another Bush would be worse, but at least people would be motivarted to get off thier asses and demand action from this poor excuse of a government.

Nothing is ever pure or simple, except maybe people who think things are.

HAHAHA!! Stop looking for answers in fortune cookies, RACIST!

Right. Wall Street can't make a damned thing on these guys.

Enjoy your new reputation as a racist. You're in the same hell as the idiot in the recording.

Anyone who criticizes Obama is a racist?

Uncle Tom's cabin was actually a damned good book. It is a shame it has become a label for those who betray there own.

That wasn't the story at all.

It would be better to be asking where is Obama's Fredrick Douglas. Your points are well taken.

lol i hate to get into personal attacks, but my oh my arent you an idiot.

go away racist scum

No, only those that think racist terms lend weight and credence to their argument.

If god ,loved an idiot, he would squeeze you to death...

That's the best come back you have? Calling people names? With no logic or documentation to back it up?

That would make you a masochist.

"Uncle Tom" is not a racist term. It's an ethnic colloquialism and much easier to use than five sentences to explain how Obama is a corporate kiss ass self serving politician like most of them.

actually i am a schizophrenic sexually sadistic sociopath

but i aspire for civility

uncle tom is a pejorative intended to shock and insult, nothing more or less. the hallmark of a small mind that cannot use subtleties to get attention or a point across. it cheapens the discourse and makes anything else you have to say extremely ignorable.

Says you, world renown scholarly authority on what is what. What's makes your statement anything other than pure opinion?

because, silly plebe, I'm Batman.

How much logic or documentation do you need to have the term "uncle tom" explained to you, RACIST?! Do I have to explain to YOU what your own words mean? Let me teach you a new word: I-G-N-O-R-A-N-T. For a definition, look in the mirror.

Give it up, RACIST! Seven syllable euphemisms only make the rope you're hanging yourself with tighter.

The term “Uncle Tom” is not an “ethnic colloquialism.” I am not sure where you got that. The origins of this term are from the novel “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” written by Harriet Beecher Stowe and she was a white woman.

Interesting, thanks for the input. Still doesn't make untrue what he said about Obama though...

Gaddafi is no Berber, and to the best of my knowledge, there are no Berbers in Libya. He's Arabic, with possibly some Turkish blood.

Who gives a shit?

The honest.

People die every day so the American corporate oligarchy can continue to make CEOs the richest assholes in the world. In the bigger picture your trivial truth means jack. It's like arguing whether it's 1 million or 1.5 million innocent Iraqis that died in our preemptive racial genocidal war.

The panthers are right on. Obama is funded by Wall Street, was elected by Wall Street, and continues be their boy. If anybody ever deserved to be the picture in the dictionary under "uncle tom" it's him. America is going down the toilet and Obama is flushing it.

smarty pant ! ( just kidding,....I did not know that, and find it interesting. +^d )

I never heard that one before, Qadhafi being Jewish that is. Could be .

Truth is truth, it is never trivial.

That sounds profound and altruistic. But you are wrong. You can count the freckles on Julianne Moore's right knee and cite that as an arguement as to whether she is beautiful or not. But it is trivail and useless information.

Fighting for the liberty of the fruit tree tastes nothing like the glint of Sagittarius rounding itself around your uvula. I know the time will soon arrive when we will see people manufactured in crates and sieves of glass.

You should systematically take whatever Crystalman says not just with a pinch of salt but with several tons of salt.

correction - they were NEVER MEMBERS OF THE BPP.

Exactly.

Oh no! You don't mean this is all about oil? Say it ain't so
