Tether

A melanated person who is NOT a foundational black American that uses their melanin ("blackness") to undermine black Americans (FBA). Tethers typically use their "blackness" to act as a representative for black Americans (FBA) for the benefit of their (white) handlers while having disdain for black Americans. Tether can be used as an action noun or as a verb.

Barack Obama is the textbook definition of a tether who used his blackness to get the black vote while not doing anything specifically for black people (FBA)

Tether

A person of a foreign lineage who undermines and/or unjustifiably dislikes, and/or discredits, and/or denigrates and/or seeks to thwart the legitimate aspirations of Foundational Black Americans and whose forbears came to the lands of North America as colonists or some other foreign invader; or a person who came to the United States as an immigrant or whose parents, grandparents etc. came to the US as immigrants who likewise undermines, and/or unjustifiably dislikes, and/or discredits, and/or denigrates and/or seeks to thwart the legitimate aspirations of Foundational Black Americans ; this includes persons of all races and ethnicities, but especially pertains to foreign lineage Negroid people i.e. native Negroid Africans, Negroid Carribeans and Negroid Hispanics etc. This is due to the aforementioned people being of the same race as Foundational Black American people and thus them being a sort of doppelganger in relation to them.

All tethers have forbears who came to the lands of North America as colonists, or they themselves are immigrants or the offspring of immigrants. Additionally, they have a disdain for and/or seek to thwart the legitimate aspirations of Foundational Black Americans in some way.

Tether

Insult used by a fringe group of Black Americans who identify as “Foundational Black Americans”. They say it describes black immigrants (namely “melanated immigrants” as they refer to them; with the idea they’re the only “Black” people) that are in the United States to undermine them in order to gain things such as resources and reparations. However it’s mainly used as a disgusting slur to attack Black immigrants (namely Africans and Carribeans). The usage itself is rooted in nativist ideals that mirror MAGA and harbor afrophobia and xenophobia.

“FBA” : Y’all wanna be us so bad! You keep cosplaying as us.

Regular Black person: I’m not even thinking about y’all. You got main character syndrome”
FBA: haha keep lying tether!

Tether Balling

When your balls are hanging extremely low, most likely on a hot day, and you shake your hips side to side until your balls wrap around your penis resembling a Tether Ball Pole. This must be done with no hands, making it an accomplishment worth sharing with all your friends.

Sam came in from playing soccer when it was 100 degrees out, took off his gym shorts. He quickly shook his hips side to side repeatedly until his balls had wrapped around this dick. He was proud because he had just done some extreme Tether Balling.

To allow people to access the internet with their wireless ipads, laptops and various devices via tethering to my wireless cell phone hotspot for a fee.

While sitting at a cafe, bar, beach, library or other public place where wireless access is not available you may pay a tether-pimp money to have access to the Internet by tethering to the tether-pimp's wireless device.
