Tether

A Cultural Slur against anyone who is not black American

Immigrant tethers from Africa and the Caribbean need to go back, fleeing tethers, African tethers, Caribbean tethers

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

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.

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)

Neural Tether

To make love in such a way that you switch bodies, and enter a state of zen.

“I’ve never felt anything more poetic than a neural tether with a like minded lover”

When you wrap your balls around another mans dick and then proceed to jerk him off.

Last night Dave and I played the tether ball, he loved it.
