Chuck weighs in on Kyrie Irving's situation with the Brooklyn Nets via NBAonTNT last night at the primiere of the nba 2021-2022 season saying  "First of all, you don't get the vaccine for yourself. You get it for other people,” Charles Baclay. You may view the video link here I disagree with Chuck for he can only speak for himself. That’s why he got vaccinated.  And that’s not the point CHARLES BARCLAY. The basis of your argument does not speak to the issue. It is one thing to get it done for family & self but that is if you believe that getting the #vaccine actually helps & you’re not suspicious of the science concerning its efficacy. Don’t be mediocre and surface level #charlesbarclay. You fail to understand the basis of some not wanting the vaccine and prioritize the Ends. You are changing the reason why we are told to get vaccinated to satisfy your position in it. There are those who doubt the science If I believe that the vaccine is spurious or that there is s...

I was thinking recently about the #GOAT conversation & concluded that we have gotten it completely wrong. To talk about an individual GOAT in a sport that’s purely based on teams is an illogic & minimizes & discriminates against the other team member’s efforts. The fact is that Michael Jordan and “KingJames” don’t play & cannot play without a team. To talk about them as the goat belittles the impact of the other teammates who are necessary for game play, & game action. When we talk about GOATS in @NBA it should be about the team NOT A person. NBA is not tennis or an individual sport. We may talk about @serenawilliams as a goat because she is part of a team of one & doesn’t share her titles. #MJ & #LBJ rings are not their own, it is only representative of the teams title/s or championship that they played on or with. Yet we belittle the team by obfuscating— Singling out the few over the many.  In effect, The mentality of elitism & status finds it’s wa...

#Capitalone is the worse #creditcard anyone would want to have. This is according to a very disgruntled former customer who came to me at The Neoliberal in an effort to share his story which we find credible after our investigations. Indeed, the customer stated that they’re unscrupulously strategic in terms of how & when they report to the bureaus & will freeze your account so that you have zero utilization if your credit improves which lowers your score new score & eventually continue to keep you as a customer with them. When they get wind of your improved credit position, they become nervous as customers usually leave to take advantage of better cards with lower interests and breather benefits or they usually have to lower their rates and offer more benefits so as to not loose you. But they’d rather not offer benefits but continue to take advantage of keeping you as a dependent customer.  He reiterates that Capital One is the worse company ever! He then started to sha...

The events of 2020 have ushered in a new norm. The world is shifting in terms of how it works. The "COVID-19" pandemic, "Black Lives Matter Movement" marching for equality and against police brutality and the rise of "White Extremism" in America culminating with the US Capital attack by "Domestic Terrorists" have created new fears, health and security concerns and highlighted economic disparities, which have resulted in tectonic changes that is defining the way companies conduct business. Further this has led to a rise in American individualism and creativity in terms of how they are responding to the structural changes in American society that has largely disadvantaged the poor or working class.  Years ago Hilary Clinton said that “leadership at the center is softening”, in that there isn’t any prolific dynamic or power that makes all the decisions and control activities and drive success given the realities and anxieties of our century...

Video Link Re Haiti's History of Foreign Penetration  Black people are among the poorest and most impoverished peoples of the world today. Why is that so? And there is no example of any country today that’s govern by black, brown or (Latin) African people where there is no instability or underdevelopment. In the book Neoliberalism Globalization Income Inequality Poverty and Resistance, we look at international bureaucracy as a strategy that continues to benefit some groups and countries at the expense of others and the countervailing forces within systems that mitigate and dilute any “ineffective” strategy of Resistance for change.  Black people today continue to be ruled through military or economic force even after they have achieved independence! This is in addition to the fact that many New World Black and Brown people are not inherently free but live as people whose freedoms are granted as a privilege by their former white masters who continue to benefit from Their white...

It’s ok for the dispensaries to sell weed, because they call it Medical Marjuana which is legal. Taking advantage of the law that allows them to do so as they work in concert with politicians to kill the competition or Black and Brown people’s economic activity which is called street weed that they have criminalized and “illegitimatize”. Thereby, affecting the lives of those who can’t obtain ownership of dispensaries without having to meet criteria that the politicians in back rooms with lobbyists and capitalists, bankers and the special interests have made impossible or difficult for those “hippies”, Black and Brown people who don’t have certain ties that dispensary owners have. Such as certain connections, race and entitlements.  What a conspiracy and plot that they have enacted to regulate an activity to drive profits for the few over the many obliterating Black enterprises and wealth in this regard.  This strategy highlights my hypothesis/assumption in fact that “Black and...

Early on Thursday morning, part of a 12-story residential building in the South Florida community of Surfside was reduced to rubble. As of Friday afternoon, at least four people had been found dead as a result of the collapse, and 159 were still missing, according to ABC7 .   Recently the mayor in response to the collapse of part of a Miami condo building where 99 people are missing and 4 are reported dead, said that “this doesn’t happen in America”.  That’s the problem you know, we don’t expect certain events to occur in America, and when they do happen, we react and play catch up. It is that belief that has caused several catastrophes, 9/11, #Katrina that destroyed NO, #The attack on the US capital on Jan 6, 2020 and the recent collapse of the building in Miami. In fact a recent study in 2020 showed that since 1990 the land was receding as water levels were rising, yet Miami still stuck to their assumptions that drove their rule of thumb to inspect buildings every 40 years....

And on June 14th my mom went to her appointment only to be in labor. Ricardo was born… then…”Wait… hold up… Mrs. McKenzie, there’s another one, oh my you got twins! I came out within a minute, all #premature, #malnourished and looking like a small “half-pound chicken” you could hold in your hands. The doctors said they will die, they’re too premature in #1979. I was rushed to the incubator and there I remain for the next 4-5 months, being fed via tube connected to my nostrils or veins as my mouth and some organs were not developed. But here I am after 42 years alive and tryna be well. Read my brief autobiography in my new book #Neoliberalism #Globalization #Income Inequality #Poverty and #Resistance. 

#Sunday: 42 years ago today; It was #June 13th, 1979; the end of the 2nd trimester & the beginning of another. My #mom & #dad set an appointment to see the #Obstetrician for a #pregnancy check-up. She thinks she’s pregnant with 1 child & is making preparations @37 years old to give birth in #September or #October… but little do they know about what’s about to happen…  On June 14th tomorrow… follow tomorrow for part 2 of the story
