I say, you're full of assumptions, aren't you? I said nothing about what rules are! But, In fact, I asked you, "...what rules are black people not following?"

I say, you're full of assumptions, aren't you? I said nothing about what rules are! But, In fact, I asked you, "...what rules are black people not following?" Is it that you don't know what the rules are? Are you capable of doing the rules by the number, you know, like rule number one and then rule number two, and so on? You need to keep it very simple for dummies like me! Surely, that's within your capacity?
Who are you trying to impress when you're regaling me with your evidentiary anecdotal stories?
I finally decide to meet your request. Find below some rules which may help you to prosper and some rules which may help you to be a proud BLM member.
The rule #1 Spend your time and efforts for learning. It is true that schools and universities are also steps in a social ladder, and it is true that such places are mostly available for the "privileged" people, but the knowledge is also power, and you would be able to provide to your son/daughter a way better starting position.
The anti-rule #1. No reason to learn because we all are in any case too poor (too black, too yellow, etc.) to study in a really prestigious elitist schools/universities. We are living "here and now", we need justice and meanwhile there is no point to spend out precious lifetime for lousy invention of system racists (various sciences, literature, etc.). Drags can "extend our mind", the purchases of the fashionable footwear and some karate drills will bring us to the proper place in the gang of our bystreet.
The rule #2: Do the work, which is important but which "privileged" people don't want to do; the "privileged" may have the access to the work, which requires less efforts but is more rewording in social or monetary meanings. Once your community will be the major player in the field and the importance of this business will one day have its say...
The anti-rule #2. Don't do anything because you are unfairly deprived from works available for "privileged" people. Satisfy your material needs by demanding a better welfare and satisfy your social needs by finding the position in the "street hierarchy". The "illegal" ways of earning money is the invention of system racists, justice first!
There are more rules for success and anti-success; you can ament the listing on your own. The major point is, though, that the person don't need personal strength, inventively, bravery for following anti-success rules. Just "go with the flow"... The excuses for the failures are always available: racism, injustice, they owe me, etc...
There’s a saying from the south for you; ask him the time, and he’ll tell you how to build a watch, although I think this also describes you; someone who derives orgasmic pleasure in their pleonasm.
Now to be perfectly clear, are you saying that are only two rules;
“The rule #1 Spend your time and efforts for learning.”
“The rule #2: Do the work...”
Are you saying, if black people follow these two rules, they will obtain great success and respect?
A prospector have to dig out a lot of a lower-grade ore to get the needed amount of gold; in the same way sometimes it needs to spend many words to explain a considerably simple and apparent things.
These rules are not so simple, but generally you make the right conclusion.
The demonstrative example is Thomas Sowell; "measured by his contributions to economics, political theory, and intellectual history, Thomas Sowell ranks among the towering intellects of our time” - and I agree with this estimate. The person from Harlem followed the above rules, and... Unfortunately, the examples of following anti-rules are more numerous.
By the way, do you know something about "Exodus to Kansas"? Take time to learn and to think about it, keeping in mind that total black population of US was about 4.5M, in 1860, whereas in the Event (Exodus to Kansas) participated only 21K African-Americans.
Dear Opponent, I appreciate your strive to have “the rules numbered”; it looks like you have a vast software experience. Computers cannot invent anything (I know the issue having 5 granted US inventions); Schrodinger (the founding father of quantum mechanics) said once that all life is “the problem with incorrect setting”. Hardly can be numbered…
The successful way of proceeding definitely follows some rules, but these rules are not easy to formalize. Your drive to issue “the numbered rules for dummies” so that a dummy can succeed following these (simple?) rules, are doomed.
Whereas the indoctrinated person hardly can be impressed (right you are!), let me to come up with a real story of my grandfather. He was born in a small Jewish-populated town at the borderland of the Russian Empire. Being 16, he left for Moscow, the capital. He hardly could speak Russian and made his living working as laborer. He studied in a shift school and graduated it as extramural student in two years. He went to the university (state stipend was earned, but he had go on working), and in ten years he was the assistant professor in the university (all despite of strong anti-Semitic sentiments in Russia). At that time, the following of such “rules without numbers” was typical for many Jews in the USSR.
In the midst of 1990-th I have a colleague, who was a son of a couple escaped from China in 1949. His story was similar to the story of my grandfather: no money, no language, nothing – and racism is also in place; finally a Ph. D. degree and a good position in the R&D company… And a lot of work between! Should I highlight the differences between the “numbered” pattern of the behavior of the people in Roxbury (MA) or Harlem (NY) and the above “proven non- anecdotal” stories, or you can do it on your own?
The person who wishes to accomplish something finds the opportunity, one who does not want - the occasion. The occasion may be absolutely real (racism do exist!) but the outcome is finally determined only by attitude.
