=== Walmart Leaving Black Communities (07:29) ===

[00:00:00]  Yeah, got a new show for y'all.
[00:00:03]  Got a damn good show.
[00:00:05]  All right, so we did a video on this maybe a couple weeks back.
[00:00:08]  Yeah, did a couple videos about Walmart leaving Chicago.
[00:00:11]  Yeah, and then, you know, all these politicians was complaining.
[00:00:14]  Hey, you know that saying they say, once you go black, you never go back.
[00:00:17]  Yeah.
[00:00:18]  Not in Walmart's case.
[00:00:19]  Once you go black, you go running back.
[00:00:22]  Go to the white people.
[00:00:25]  Once you go black, you go running straight back to the suburbs.
[00:00:33]  I shouldn't have said that.
[00:00:34]  That was inappropriate.
[00:00:35]  That was reprehensible, what I just said, but I don't give a crap.
[00:00:39]  That was facts.
[00:00:40]  It was a good joke, too.
[00:00:41]  That was facts.
[00:00:42]  That was a damn good joke.
[00:00:43]  That was facts.
[00:00:44]  It was offensive, but it was a damn good joke.
[00:00:47]  Well, it was based in reality.
[00:00:48]  It was factual.
[00:00:49]  Yeah, it's factual.
[00:00:50]  Right.
[00:00:50]  So, you know, and then all the politicians came out and they were saying, man, this is racist.
[00:00:54]  Y'all taking this away from the black community.
[00:00:57]  What are they going to eat now?
[00:00:59]  Right?
[00:00:59]  But this is, I came across this video on YouTube.
[00:01:02]  Now, I'm not sure what her political affiliation is.
[00:01:05]  Being black, she's more likely.
[00:01:07]  She's a Democrat, but who knows?
[00:01:09]  That's not why I chose her video.
[00:01:10]  She gave an objective, rational response while Walmart left.
[00:01:15]  It's irrelevant what's her political affiliation.
[00:01:17]  It doesn't matter.
[00:01:17]  She's spitting facts.
[00:01:19]  She's spitting truth.
[00:01:20]  And this is, if she is, if she is left-leaning, she's a true liberal.
[00:01:27]  Yeah.
[00:01:28]  Check out her response while Walmart left Chicago.
[00:01:31]  Yeah.
[00:01:32]  Walmart told us in a statement that their annual losses nearly doubled in Chicago in the last five years.
[00:01:38]  That losing millions of dollars a year is forcing them to close these stores.
[00:01:43]  Walmart is closing four stores in areas where they are saying they're not profitable, right?
[00:01:51]  And people are outraged.
[00:01:54]  I mean, outraged.
[00:01:56]  So the big Walmart over on 83rd and Stewart is closing.
[00:02:02]  And today they've been having a bunch of protests, angry people out.
[00:02:07]  People are just angry and sad, protesting Walmart.
[00:02:11]  We got politicians out there making speeches, saying, How could Walmart do this to the community?
[00:02:17]  And now they're calling Walmart racist for taking a resource out of the black community.
[00:02:23]  And how dare them?
[00:02:25]  They need to explain how it is that Walmart is not profitable when this store is always full.
[00:02:31]  It's always packed.
[00:02:32]  People are always shopping.
[00:02:34]  Do y'all want Walmart to just like come out and say it?
[00:02:39]  Y'all ninjas still.
[00:02:41]  Black people need to stop lying.
[00:02:43]  We really need to stop lying.
[00:02:45]  Like, I sincerely hate the blind, misplaced anger.
[00:02:53]  It's like that Walmart was completely destroyed during the riots during COVID.
[00:03:00]  I mean, completely destroyed.
[00:03:02]  They even set something on fire in that store, set off the sprinklers, and flooded the entire store.
[00:03:08]  And Walmart said, the hell with y'all.
[00:03:11]  We're not reopening this store, period, because it's not worth it.
[00:03:15]  So what happened?
[00:03:16]  The community came together, protested, petitioned for Walmart to reopen that store.
[00:03:22]  I don't even think it's been a full two years, I don't think it's been a full two years since that Walmart has reopened.
[00:03:27]  So Walmart said, okay, we'll give it another shot.
[00:03:30]  We'll reopen the store because we know that the community needs it.
[00:03:34]  Talking to one of the managers in there, and he was just telling me how bad the theft is at that store.
[00:03:41]  Not only the theft is terrible, they have a lot of violent incidents.
[00:03:45]  I think maybe it was just two weeks ago someone got killed up there.
[00:03:48]  I hate going to that store.
[00:03:50]  I go to that store out of necessity.
[00:03:53]  I honestly go to that store out of necessity when I'm tired and I just don't feel like driving anywhere else.
[00:04:00]  Now, the day after Walmart announced that they were closing four stores, the very next day, somebody went in there and stole six TVs out of the store.
[00:04:11]  And y'all want to sit out there and protest and say, how could they do this?
[00:04:15]  They are, they are hurting our community.
[00:04:18]  Well, Walmart was a resource for this community.
[00:04:21]  The community did not protect that resource, so the resource is going away.
[00:04:28]  And people are upset and calling Walmart racist because of this move.
[00:04:33]  Please make it make sense.
[00:04:35]  Hey, hey, everybody.
[00:04:36]  White flight happens again.
[00:04:41]  White flight.
[00:04:42]  Well, she brings up a point.
[00:04:44]  Hey, it's white flight right there.
[00:04:45]  They can't deal with them niggas.
[00:04:48]  You niggas hold another level.
[00:04:52]  Yeah, it's just that, hey, white flight is real, man.
[00:04:56]  White flight is real.
[00:04:58]  You can't expect white people to stay in the neighborhood when they can't make no money.
[00:05:04]  You can't expect black people to stay in there.
[00:05:06]  Exactly.
[00:05:06]  You can't expect Chinese.
[00:05:08]  You can't expect anybody to stay in the neighborhood with the area of the theft and the crime and the violence and the theft.
[00:05:13]  Is that bad?
[00:05:14]  No, people in the business.
[00:05:16]  Walmart's in the business of making money.
[00:05:18]  Yeah.
[00:05:19]  I mean, not only this, I mean, she told during COVID, during those rots, they destroyed that store, that store.
[00:05:26]  So you know they lost millions when that happened, right there alone.
[00:05:29]  And then also had a theft problem to begin with.
[00:05:32]  And then you got people getting killed up there.
[00:05:34]  Yeah.
[00:05:34]  I mean, that's a liability for the company just to have their employees working in a violent area.
[00:05:39]  Yeah.
[00:05:40]  That's a huge liability for them.
[00:05:42]  They sitting there blaming white folks.
[00:05:44]  Walmart, they're racist.
[00:05:45]  Black people was complicit in that store's demise.
[00:05:48]  They were complicit.
[00:05:49]  Yeah.
[00:05:50]  Y'all, all that, everything that's happening to the black community is virtually self-inflicted.
[00:05:57]  Yeah, self-inflicted.
[00:05:59]  Y'all played a huge role in your own demise.
[00:06:02]  If that store is making money, they're not leaving.
[00:06:04]  If that store is not experiencing high levels of theft, that store is still there.
[00:06:08]  If you niggas stop back like a bunch of crazy lunatics, you will still have a Walmart.
[00:06:14]  But white people ain't putting up with that foolishness.
[00:06:17]  You think the Waltons gonna put up with a bunch of niggas?
[00:06:23]  Remember the old show, The Waltons?
[00:06:25]  Yeah, I'm a John Boy.
[00:06:26]  John Boy ain't putting up with that shit.
[00:06:29]  I can guess every time I hear that company, the owner of the company.
[00:06:32]  The Waltons, I think of that Little House of the Prairie.
[00:06:34]  Them wholesome, clean white folks.
[00:06:38]  That's what I think of when I think of the Waltons.
[00:06:40]  I think of the Walton family and John Boy.
[00:06:44]  I bet John Boy up in the executive office said, Yep, you're tired of these niggas.
[00:06:48]  Pack your shit up.
[00:06:48]  We leave.
[00:06:49]  Yeah.
[00:06:51]  We going somewhere.
[00:06:52]  I'm going to the suburbs.
[00:06:54]  Yeah.
[00:06:55]  But the politicians in Chicago, what did they say?
[00:06:57]  They spinning it.
[00:06:58]  Oh, this is.
[00:06:59]  They spinning it.
[00:07:00]  This is racist.
[00:07:01]  They politicize.
[00:07:02]  This is, they don't like our kind over here.
[00:07:05]  Yeah, they don't like the Negro.
[00:07:07]  Yeah.
[00:07:08]  They politicize.
[00:07:09]  This is white supremacy.
[00:07:10]  They embellishing the story to sensationalizing it.
[00:07:14]  They're doing it for political spin, man, to get votes.
[00:07:17]  And black people, y'all believe them.
[00:07:20]  And the black people bleeding, y'all was up in the damn, y'all probably, man.
[00:07:23]  They don't believe that.
[00:07:24]  They lying.
[00:07:25]  Just like she said, y'all stop.
[00:07:26]  Y'all actually, not only you lying, you lying to yourself.

=== End It To Win It (00:55) ===

[00:07:29]  Yeah.
[00:07:29]  I can understand lying to somebody else, but you lying to yourself.
[00:07:32]  That's like telling a man he can have a baby.
[00:07:36]  That's like telling a woman she can have a mushroom tip.
[00:07:39]  It's like semen.
[00:07:40]  That's like telling a man you can menstruate.
[00:07:44]  That's like telling a woman she got foreskin.
[00:07:48]  Ain't gonna happen.
[00:07:51]  Ain't gonna happen.
