[@actionjackson5207]

Dnt bring mark back

[@zacharyadamcruz]

This podcast has become increasingly difficult to engage with. The recent addition of Mark has further exacerbated this issue. Joe frequently criticizes those who pander, yet he appears to be the most significant offender, particularly with his alignment towards far-left narratives. While it is understood that hip hop culture predominantly leans Democratic, and there may be financial incentives to cater to this audience, such actions are profoundly disappointing. Mark's assertion that men can have babies is particularly concerning. In today's climate, where the fear of being 'cancelled' looms large, it is crucial to maintain integrity and authenticity.

[@MaatBlack-t7c]

At the same time you gotta let everyone say their piece. If it turns out to be bs then at least we all heard it and can now move accordingly. On another point, why would anyone base their political leanings on anything a random celebrity says. Nobody knows any policies either candidate has. American politics us a popularity contest. Yiur vote dont even count really as the electoral college decides on the president. How is there two different votes? Maybe that should be THE main topic for you guys.

[@zacharyadamcruz]

@@MaatBlack-t7c I typically refrain from engaging in extended exchanges within the comment sections of online platforms. However, in the spirit of open dialogue and to afford everyone the benefit of the doubt, I make it a point to respond at least once. 1. Regarding your initial assertion about allowing everyone to express their views and subsequently discerning their validity, I find myself in complete agreement. I am a staunch advocate for free speech, even when I disagree with the sentiments expressed. As Evelyn Beatrice Hall eloquently encapsulated Voltaire’s philosophy, "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." It seems there may have been a misunderstanding of my original comment, as I believe you might be conflating the right to free expression with the notion of uncritical allegiance to a particular ideology, which are distinctly different concepts. 2. Concerning your second point about the influence of celebrities on political opinions, I concur with your perspective. Personally, I am indifferent to the political views of celebrities. Nonetheless, it is important to recognize that not everyone shares this indifference, and many individuals are indeed swayed by the rhetoric of public figures. This is evidenced by the frequent solicitation of celebrity endorsements by political parties, which undeniably impacts electoral outcomes. While I may disagree with this phenomenon, it is a reality that shapes public perception and political landscapes. 3. On the matter of the significance of our votes, I must express my strong dissent. I firmly believe that our votes hold substantial weight. To dismiss their importance is to adopt a defeatist mindset that absolves one of the responsibility to participate and effect change. As Plato wisely observed, "Those who refuse to engage in public affairs are destined to be ruled by evil men." It is imperative that we actively participate rather than remain passive observers, lest we find ourselves subject to policies that are not in our best interest. There are additional points I wish to address, but time constraints prevent me from doing so at the moment. Thank you for your comment, and may you be blessed.

[@MaatBlack-t7c]

@zacharyadamcruz Thanks for the reply. 1. I would propose that an uncritical allegiance to anything is at it most basic, a form of freedom of expression. 2. If it is a popularity contest, then nothing you or I say on here will make a blind bit of difference. 3. I'm less of a defeatist, more of a cynic. After a bit more reading, It seems i misunderstood how the electoral college works. I thought the popular vote had absolutely no bearing on the electoral vote. It does, but only in the sense that you vote for your senator or representative, who then is charged with choosing a selector to cast a ballot for the presidency. A selector can't be a senator or representative, but the winner of the state election gets given all the electors anyway. Sheesh, that's convoluted. The electoral college and super delegates seem like an unnecessary step in the whole process. How about "One man. One vote.?" That way, the popular vote wins the election. How can a candidate have almost 3 million more votes and still lose the election? I'd say make it make sense, but it doesn't. I really appreciate the reply, though. You have a blessed day, too.

Mark saying CC wasn’t mistreated…what a clown,sports/politics need to stay off the pod

[@jasonkirby5542]

Saying “I’m voting for Kamala”, then providing an hours worth of points as to why folks will vote trump looks more like we should refer to the disclaimer at top of the show. Smh.

[@paveyoung6121]

It’s just politically correct to say “I’m voting for Kamala”

[@90sboy13]

I came to the conclusion a long time ago the Flip just is not a smart person. That is totally fine! I just wish he would stop chiming in on topics that he clearly doesn’t have fleshed out thoughts on. Like during the political topic he just interjected because he doesn’t like what someone is saying (mainly Marc in this episode). He doesn’t even know why he doesn’t like it , it just makes him feel a way.

[@KyPhin502]

What in the world is going on with the pod behind the scenes??? The energy been wild for weeks now 🤔🤔🤔

1:47 this just shows yall don’t be having nothing to talk about if twitter and the shade room don’t got nothing good going on. Joe loves skipping the good topics or the gender war topics to talk about whatever is on the shade room and wanna make fun of people who actually have topics 😂

Marc Lamont Hill wearing a shirt that says Black Men Smile while simultaneously reducing us to wanting to be a white man because we not rocking with Kamala?

[@boogerlane9774]

I ain't gone lie when I saw Meg the Stallion twerking at the Democratic convention for Kamala I was disgusted. Shit was a bad look for black people.I wish we would get out of that phase of voting for people because they're democrat or black.

[@Knowledge-dn7wq]

Yeah he need to get outta here with that we want to be trump nonsense smh cmon Marc do better moving forward 😂

[@didasenga9397]

Candance Owens set him straight recently on Piers Morgan. He’s an industry plant. There’s a reason his YT channel isn’t doing well.

[@pay-o-matteo]

That's Male Mel😂😂😂

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

It's not about who you're _not_ rocking with; it's about those rocking with dude when all he does is play in your face and "come down from his place to yours" to fake recognize you and you eat it up like fried chicken. Or even worse, doing nothing at all, possibly giving him a win to let his schumuckery back into the white house. Keep acting like this shit is a game.

[@yakimisrael5758]

I wonder how Mel can be so sure that Lord Jamar doesn't know Kamala's policy stance.... He has the same access to the net just like anyone else that wants to research. Sounds a bit dismissive to me. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@dreamkitty]

because bm typically aren’t educated

[@jahairl227]

She is sure, and made the statement based on her assertion that Lord J is uninformed and not knowledgeable on political matters. She is entitled, but only to her opinion and folks that feed her ego. We have seen these behaviors throughout her career and time on JBP. It helps make the case more diverse.

[@blane6592]

MY 15 year old knows more than Jamar…I’m not calling any human…LORD! 🙄

[@Damian-zu6ls]

If you can’t see how far Jamar has fallen and the rhetoric he’s spewing now as an indication that maybe he’s not as well informed as he thinks, idk what to tell you g lol

[@belleami7675]

He don't. He would've said what he disagrees with. From Brand Nubian to this. SMDH

[@jordanwaller6590]

I loved the political convo! It was great for the people listening on more information about the election and how it’s gonna impact our people! Marc, Mel, Ish and Joe, fantastic job

[@kizzyk4856]

Thank you flip for calling our Marc on his pandering. This isn’t abc,nbc or none of that ish. He makes EVERYTHING about being black or being white, it’s tiring

Great episode

[@Celigi]

CAM ON ME!!! THIS POD WAS AMAZING!!!!! 10 OUT OF 10!!!! VERY REFRESHING!!!!

[@robertlittle2471]

I listened to the Apple episode yesterday. I find it interesting that Marc Lamont Hill in all his political "expertise", still hasn't figured out that Kamala isn't a sistah. Or he doesn't want to figure it out... And he calls out people for being bought and paid for, smh.

[@Patrick-kb6gc]

I listened on spotify yesterday and the fact that they didn't mention what obama did at all is baffling. Black men are voicing their opinion of Kamala strongly after Obama basically race shamed and finger wagged at them.

[@yaredteferra7630]

On the Caitlin Clark topic: You guys completely missed other players getting harshly fouled that just got into the league. This year and years before. Stop the bull.

[@mikesmith2550]

They weren't speaking on the league being a wake up call for them prior to getting their because of the attention they received in college either

Angel reese almost died in back to back plays...

[@cmoneymadhops]

A lot of players got abused then

[@thecircle2662]

tbh the WNBA allows more physical plays. I was watching the playoffs and I'm like damn that wasn't a foul??? they be body checking and letting shit ride.

[@laurenjackson2810]

They literally proved Marc’s point. He said he felt like Angel Reese was mistreated way more than Caitlin & Ish & Flip were silent.

[@ThaLocOne]

Yea they need to bring back that jar and when ever Mel tries to cuss she has to drop some money in it I swear she is the worst 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Januarymay1127]

It is really horrible to hear this lady cussing. Potty mouth auntie.

[@fadedcrayon4764]

Kamala is not someone we respect in the black community. She isn't one of our aunts, last time I checked my aunts don't wash greens in a bath tub. She ain't like any of my grandma's. Definitely nothing like my mother. She is a HINDU biracial Indian woman raised in Canada pretending to be a Black America Freedman. She hasn't done anything for our community and never will. Didn't she swear into the VP office as an Asian woman? Not a Black one. They must be sending the JPB some of those DNC checks. Cus this is nasty behavior. Before anyone jumps down my throat about Trump, no Diddy. I'm voting for Cornell West. B1 ✊🏾!
