On What If Season 2 Episode 9,Killmonger snapped that fool Thanos away while he had all of the Infinity Stones right before facing off with Kahhori and Captain America (Peggy Carter). My issue is this exposed a pattern I’ve noticed with the most recent works that had Killmonger in it (What If Season 1 Episode 9, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and this).They are taking the Killmonger character through an extraction process in order to correct the big loss they took (from a propaganda standpoint) with him in BP.Marvel made a mistake with Killmonger because the intent was to portray him as a self-serving villain whom everyone would hate but the character polarized folks. Some blacks saw him as selfish, hateful, and vengeful without a cause and maybe even mentally ill but for an even greater chunk it made blacks open up their consciousness to some extent. They saw him as a character who wanted black unity, to eradicate CUNERY and to strategically fight back against the dominant society.

Marvel has been putting out content lately that only makes Killmonger seem like an opportunistic, generic villain who is hell bent on revenge while removing the conscious aspect. Consider his appearance in Black Panther WaCUNEda Forever where he was convincing Shuri to tap into her rage and in What If Season 2 Episode 9 where he didn’t even speak words, but was relegated to being a cameo of the Killmonger from season 1. They also nerfed the power of the infinity stones just to allow “girl power” (essentially two women who come from cultures that have colonized blacks) to take out a black male super character. Think about it, when Thanos had the stones it took everyone to take him down, but Kahhori was able to just easily remove Killmonger from the suit to go frolic with the other “maniacal” villains?! Pssh..Nah bruh. Marvel’s top priorities are to 1) Portray generalized diversity to stay in good graces with the fans to keep making money 2) Eliminate anything that takes a
This video came straight from my YouTube Channel where I discuss the solution to fixing the issue of poor or improper black representation in media.I shared a clip to get a feel for what was discussed.While having conversations about the presence of anti-blackness in media is important, it’s equally important that we also have discussions about how we can create solutions around fixing the issue of proper black “representation”

What do you think is the biggest problem with poor black representation?
Comics loves a polarizing antagonist. First, Killmonger,then Thanos and now MigueI’s bitch ass.I really did not like this goofball. First of all, why in the hell is he so swole in that tight ass suit because Spiderman is typically thin as hell? It’s probably because he was injecting himself with some damn Spider Steroids. Think about it yall, he ain’t even a real Spiderman. Let’s just call him “Spiderbite” with his ol’ Great Value Spiderman lookin’ ass. It’s like going to the store to get Fruity Pebbles and settling for Fruity Sparkles Cereal. You gotta be one delusional hypocrite to wake up one day and say I know I’m not a real spiderman but I’ll make myself into one and then turn around and get mad when someone else abnormally becomes one (even though Miles actually became a real f**kin’ Spiderman). He thought he unlocked the cheat code to having a normal ass spiderverse after inserting his damn self in it abnormally and somehow Miles was the one who threw the s**t off?! I’m not sure which Miguel is a bigger bitch, this Dollar Store Mario Lopez lookin ass fool in a “spiderbite” suit or Miquel from This is Us who married his best friend’s wife after he died in a burning house.
~
Miguel poetically and ironically reminds me of the non-black YT hispanic tether class becoming honorary WS. You know, those folks who come to the US from places like Mexico with only $5 and some elote just to emulate the WS revising what it means to be American or browbeat blacks with racism and bootstraps talking points or model minority talk. Then they want to tell blacks (FBA at that) how they don’t belong in the US (Go Back to Africa Slander) and compare being an immigrant to anti-black slavery. Well, that’s basically what yalls boy did. I think them steroids clearly weren’t mixing right with the Goya powder because he was throwing s**t at Miles having a tether bitch fit for no reason.This was nothing more than a tale of tether at the top thinkin h
I agree with Brother Killa Cam, but let’s refineme his already correct statement. I also do not identify with being called an African-American nor should anyone else who is a FBA/ Black American Freedman. Foundational Black Americans like myself acknowledge that we are genetically African and our melanation shows it (which is the main argument made against us), but know where we come from culturally.. First of all, Africa is a continent not a race and second based on that line of thinking Elon Musk or Charlize Theron could be considered “African-Americans” since the term is so loose and “miscellaneous” in definition and they both are from Africa.It started off as a term evolved from calling us negroes to displace us from being native to the land of America. It later became a way to make FBA seem like Miscellaneous Africans that don’t know what part of Africa they come from. All black persons in the diaspora deserve the right to identify with the culture they come from. I believe this only becomes a problem when FBAs honor our lineage. No one ever browbeats a Jamaican or Haitian about the way they honor their cultural origin. Also let’s not forget places like the Carribean even recognize cultural delineation when its time for CARICOM and exclude FBA from their claim and no one (including us) fusses about it. Our recognition of FBA culture is met with claims of divisiveness and othering instead of acceptance and respect. This also insinuates Africans absorb the honor of creating rap music, jazz music,the gif, the light bulb and many other resources. I have nothing but love for my Non-FBA and Diaspora Family and they know who they are but it doesn’t mean I’m going to make culture small to make others feel okay. When people ask where my family is from, I don’t tell them Africa, I tell them they are from Mississippi and North Carolina. Like brother Michael Jackson said, “I am a Proud Black American”.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I was watching Invincible Season 2 a few nights ago with the wife and I noticed that this show, is trying to normalize this idea of empowering white women who have been victimized by all men including black men. You have Mark’s mom who was called a pet by Omni Man (who is a white viltramite). You have a bunch of dominant “powerful white women” all throughout this show too. Even Amber’s character was originally supposed to be a white woman, but was race swapped into being a black woman. Hell,s he might as well have been an honorary white feminist the way white nerds dogpiled on her in Season 1 but we’ll break her character down another time.
~
In season 2 episode 2, there was a scene where a black man and white woman were going to buy a house from Mark’s mom and they had the brother who seemed like a nerd talking down to the white women he was with while she looked highly intimidated before Mark’s mom “defended her”. This ideology vastly mirrors the manipulative tactics of a white woman to pull others into their gripes with the WS man. They want black women to be their one sided allies and want black men to be portrayed as these animalistic brutes who are equal victimizers to white men. White women (esp liberal) in general have this strange fantasy that black men are animalistic brutes who can actually victimize them systematically and usually do this by pointing out songs where a black rapper “was s*xist to women”.Yet, they forget they were the one’s who took affirmative action from us, colonized and r***d us in slavery along with their “kings”, champion their good ol’ back feminist heroes who had disparaged us and more. They’ll sit around and conflate s*xism with their underhanded racism. This is another case of a Karen once again needing to mind her own mayo business.

While I do think Power Book 4 Force Season 2 has a good story and is entertaining, I noticed something very interesting about the Tommy character is written and the characters around him. It’s almost as if there is a white savior theme going on. Tommy is a white boy who in my honest opinion is a “Yo Yo Yo Homie Yo”. He has blood nephew who is black named D-Mac who calls him Uncle Tommy (which is a little weird in itself). He also has a “play” nephew in the Tariq St.Patrick character (who is also black if you didn’t know) who is a lot like D-Mac who also refers to him as Uncle Tommy. He also gives both them advice and protects them from being destructive. He is leading this group called the CBI which was originally a black drug dealer group. Diamond is his black sidekick and Jenard was made to be the rebel who wasn’t rockin’ with it at first. Tommy even talked about creating a “we are the world coalition” with narcotics on top while leading a black organization. Even in this season they pulled a new trope I’ve never seen. They tried a girl drapetomania role in the character Shanti. She is suspicious of Tommy and him running the CBI. She’s also aggressive, strategic, and even willing to go against the grain despite everyone else aligning with or being too hesitant to take Tommy on.
~
I also noticed the show does black character dirty. The first season of the show and beginning part of the second season killed off all the black female characters. D-Mac’s half-black father is also LGBT and there is a lot of swirling from tommy to Vic to Kate. Anyway yall, let me know if you’ve seen this too.

Bill Maher is basically what Joe Biden would be if he were 15 years younger and into “comedy”. He is that arrogant, mayo supremacist white liberal who will disrespect blacks while pretending to be down with them. This is a man who has said he was a “ house nigga” and even talked about being willing to “teach” the history of racism while also being against the idea of teaching that racism is the essence of America. This is also the man who said “nigger” on live television when comparing tribesmans to kenyans. This is the result of what happens when the white woke turns into the grand dragon of the K*K when they believe blacks are down with them. They play sympathizer while also playing oppressor. They want to be appreciated by blacks and others as being “woke” at best and wanted to be absolved from racism while being racist at best.Not to mention he wanted to clap some black women’s cheeks
~
And even when he is approached about his behavior he gets passive aggressive and defensive.I’ll never forget when Ice cube called himself doing a “so-called” soft-core, g-check on Bill maher who had a dismissive attitude about it even being brought up. I’ve said this millions of times in the past. The YT supremacist really wants blacks to just shut up and be happy they aren’t being subjugated in slavery which is why he was upset that his YT supremacist actions were even being unpacked or questioned by a “ house nigga”. Go head and keep rollin’ with this soft ass “we gotta move forward” babble you goofball negroes like to spew and I guarantee you will see more Yo Yo Yo mayo supremacy like this.

This is the most common and frustrating strawman argument I hear where the point gets missed. None of my comments arent meant to attack black LGBTQIA+ folks. Even Francis Cress Welsing said, you should not attack them but more so those who use them. The WS are not trying to create healthy representation for blacks at all and LGBT blacks are not exempt.Why would a group of people who control media and have subjugated everyone black choose not to do so for a specific black group. They are using different s*xual orientations outside of heteros*xuality to negatively impact blacks as a whole. This is mostly through indoctrination, but there are other ways too. I HATE the term LGBT Agenda because they don’t have an agenda the WS does. A more proper term is Black Sexuality Manipulation. They want to create population control and tailoring
~
I stand with our LGBT brothers and sisters. Many of them like the likes of James Baldwin and in modern day Marcel Dixon are codified and are much needed in our fight. Misrepresenting and Over Portraying black LGBT is kind of similar to tropes that apply to black women and in*******al daters. Most of them appear endearing, but it’s deceitful. If you dont articulate this (Hell, even sometimes when you do) folks will wanna cancel you.Imagine folks puttin on for Hi**er if he was a movie producer giving black g**s promotion and everyone supported what he did regardless of him being Hi**er. My advice is Flip it back on them. I wanna cancel yo ass because you are so desperate to be represented you’ll big up the YT Supremacist and cosign their choices. So if I’m a homophobe, I guess you are an anti-black sambo tool of WS.

This is a post request from @relentless_15.I can do bad all by myself was weird and toxic.The whole theme of the movie was proximity trauma p**n mixed with benign neglect.It was a big ball of cultural disparity confusion and displacement. April was made to be a sapphire and the scapegoat when the problems were almost outside of her. Why was her mother in bad health? Why was her sister on drugs? Where was the father of the kids? Why was she browbeat for not wanting to connect with her toxic family? Her selfishness was based around the evil black man in her life and that really was her business. This movie like most of those who try to bulls**t you in Life focuses on small residual effects and not root causes
~
Sandino was used as a way to compare the hardships of those who CHOOSE to immigrate to the US to FBAs who have been victims of crimes of proximity with no tangibles .He was immaculate, a lover of children, emotionally supportive and the perfect love interest to get the feisty black woman calm and feminine again whereas the black man was portrayed as a child molester and narrascist. He also was made a victim of the Xenophophic black man. It’s also interesting how he never answered the question about being here illegally.Tyler Perry told the opposite of reality here. Black women are getting trafficked, r***d and organ harvested esp in places like Mexico.He was teaching us we have a solidarity issue when it’s the opposite. He used his platform to say “look at the way we live We Gots To Do Bettaz!” While making both black women and men seem less noble than Non-black immigrants.Ironically he accidently also showed how we, the old ni**as are too trusting. This among other ways Tyler Perry has shown he doesn’t understand racism nor should he be trusted as a so-called black leader.

The black characters on Danny Phantom are problematic. We will talk about Tucker the Token later, but right now let’s talk about Valerie Gray. She is a walking husk of anti-black trope mashups. First off, notice that physically she appears somewhat bad built. She didnt have two parents in the home. She also is portrayed as a tough as nails mean girl. She’s also the popular girl at her school which is nothing like reality. A bad built black girl in a white school will typically not be rich or popular and she was both.She’s basically a mix of the sapphire and strong black woman trope. She is mean spirted with a hot temper which drives her to hunt Danny Phantom because of her general hatred for ghosts. She even gets multiple jobs when her father loses his job after being well-off and becomes a ghost hunter to do good. This is the strong black woman in training. A self-sacrificing individual trying to take initiative to help others. This was done to portray a negative image of a black woman even when she’s just a girl
~
They then gave her a crush on Danny Fenton which threw in the Swirling vibes. Even when they had Tucker crushing on her, she only used him to get intel on Danny Phantom. Notice at some point, she becomes a softer, more caring woman after her feelings for Danny had come out. It’s almost as if Danny was the YT male prize that softened her up as they bonded. The sapphire can castigate a black man and its considered powerful, but its a flaw that needs to be tamed when done to someone YT. Her story was also never fully flushed out at the end. It’s clear this was an agenda for her to serve as the angry black girl who became better and after that she was disposable.

If you are whining about what is fact versus an opinion then you have missed the point. You may even be actively attempting to disprove my statements because they challenge your belief instead of seeking truth.One of my biggest pet peeves when talking to someone is when they attempt to make my “fact” seem like an opinion up for debate. This is part of a debate technique called the relativist fallacy. Most of the time CUNES, solution sambos, YT supremacists and especially shea butter sambas use this argument to belittle a fact in order to avoid being held accountable for their choices or defending their position.
~
Calling what I state a “theory” makes it intriguing or interesting at best and certainly questionable, but there ain’t nothing questionable about the existence of anti-black white supremacy in media. I state facts and base any of my opinions on the facts and occurrences presented.The point of all of this though shouldnt be to just pull out random facts and opinions that support their butter biscuit bulls**t. Unlike these chronic whiners, I’m using my brain to implement critical thinking and a careful pattern analysis to draw conclusions and ask questions.The YT supremacist wont directly define what they do in some type of weird manifesto because its common law, so its our job to figure it out and put the pieces of the puzzle together. It’s all good though. I’m sure my “theories” will stop being a conspiracy when its turned into a netflix show.

This movie placed negative stigmas on blacks and told a lot of half truths. The blacks who spoke the truth were portrayed as idiots or unruly. The blacks who were lowkey CUNE-ing got portrayed as wise prophets. Fudge who was pro-black disturbed his white roommate while resting, causing him to become a WS although,the mayo spirit was already in him just as it is with every WS mass shooter. When they feel left out they turn to WS.They pretended WS only happens when pro-blacks are obnoxious bullies and they have to correct it. I smell Drapetomania. Anyway, Malik was gaslit the entire movie and made to seem like a dumb, excuse making jock. He was constantly browbeat about how he was “making a big deal” about racism, yet ended up being right, earning him both the respect of his teacher and a dead hardheaded (and big foreheaded ass) girlfriend.
~
BTW, I thought he was a petty bitch and indeed a CUNE as Malik stated. He was on some “it aint race its personal accountability, class, economics” s**t.They hardly gave the gay white girl any hell when she talked about “feminism”, “gay rights” or when she was racist. Yet calling out anti-blackness was met with red herrings, adhominems , playing both sides narratives, and admonishment. They even had a “hotep” character plebiscite babbling used to make her lift all coalition seem “respectable” despite her anti-blackness being written off as “ignorance”. The only real truth was when Remy was killed and the WS Scott smiled showing WS sacrifices their own to keep it all going. This was a democratic underserved ppl coalition sundae with whipped mayo on top.

You’ll see that I rarely to ever speak on the premise of s*x, religion, class or anything outside of race. None of these get to the root of the problem and really racism trickles into them all. I have made it clear 100s of times that I love black women. And my posts about the disrespect to dark skinned black women, the mammy, sapphire, Jezebel, the strong black woman trope and much more prove it. I also make it clear that I don’t attack people for their “classification”.I report on the negative behaviors that a “classification” does and give it a name.
~
The two types that make this argument are the simps who pander to black women thinking it’ll get them some b***y while failing to give them accountability for their poor decisions and Shea butter sambas.I stand up for our queens who are attacked by WS, are codified and love black men but not Shea Butter Samba-isms.This is a black woman who seems to embrace her black womanhood and anything that acts like a “rebellious” black woman but hates black men.It’s as if they believe they are their own ethnic group separate from blacks that should be embraced by all blacks without them embracing all blacks.They castigate all black men either due to the bad relationships they have with them or due to media portrayals.They will even embrace WS opportunities given to them and side with them when its beneficial even if it entails disrespecting black men just like a Sambo would. They use words like “hotep”, bullet bags, misogyny and more. See family, It’s cool when I call out black men when they are being CUNES but as soon as I examine their behavior they wanna get mad and unfollow me. I guess the trash takes itself out sometimes. Pro-black means I care about black first, but it doesnt mean I stand with CUNERY even with its saturated in coconut oil.

I haven’t heard alot from Tomi Lahren as of late, but her past track record shows that she indeed is a white bread mayo sandwich lovin’ speculated YT supremacist. She will splain’ and make excuses for why blacks were unjustly murdered by race soldiers. She will even go as far to lie about how her YT ancestors died to “free us”. She also asked the question of “what rights do black people not have?” as if we have an anti-FBA hate crime bill and as if “her people” can’t kill us with impunity especially when we dont do anything bad let alone criminal and her folks get gentle treatment (keep their lives) even when they mass murder us. She’s the type of WS who will say little slick s**t about us and then divert to how the democrats and liberal agendas do worse when backed into a corner. She also is the type imo who wants blacks to just shut up and be happy we are not in slavery.
~
She reminds me of those closeted YT girls you see in college who’s from the middle of nowhere and got around black football players and let them run a lil choo choo on her then turns into a hardcore Konservative Kare post college. She is not a bad looking white girl so I’m sure she’s been on many long train rides. Think about it though. Her ass was jammin to 21 savage after wanting him deported so like most YT girls with this fe**sh she dont care what type of black guy he is or his character, she just care about the snickers bar. TBH I prefer Mayo queens like her that tell you who they are and get sloppy showing you their hypocrisy. Makes my job so much easier.

I don’t know about y’all but I dont see what’s so magical about this Static Shock Episode “so-called tackling” racism. I know this is only a clip, but I did watch the whole episode. First off, I prefer racists like Richie’s dad because they dont practice covert/subtle racism they let you know who they are. Just like an overt YT Surpemacist, he made it clear he doesn’t care for blacks. He lied about who built the US up/made it seem like the WS made the US better when it was FBAs like Virgil’s family. Second, he made it seem like FBAs are degenerate and their music is the problem when his people are the ones funding FBAs making harmful music just to make them a statistic. Third, he clearly doesn’t care for an integrated society. Richie’s mom was most likely well aware that his father was a racist so her playing victim is just phony. This also shows she’s okay with benefitting from WS as long as it doesn’t “look a certain way”.
What I did not like most about all of this is they made Richie seem like the biggest victim here and not Virgil. Virgil was trying to be the black forgiver (like foundational black americans have always been). Meanwhile, he was apologizing to Richie for his father being racist and his dad was also sympathizing with Richie too. Virgil’s Dad is also weak imo.First, this is a lesson in mistakenly sending your black kids into white folks homes unarmed and unaware of anti-black racism. Think about all the blacks who do this and come up missing, dead or harmed. At the end when the dad apologized to his son, I noticed he did not extend an apology to Virgil for how he treated him. Hell, this type of behavior doesnt even happen in reality until they get hit intheir pockets. This was all a “both sides” narrative saying there are a minority of bad whites but most are not so bad or racist. And the biggest victims are the whites who have to whiteness the racism. In other words this wasn’t tackling racism, it was telling y
Arguments Used Against Me “You Are Always Negative and I Dont See How That’s Productive At All.”
If you stay silent when the YT Supremacist creates a mess, you don’t get to judge how I clean it up. Speaking truth to power is not negative and seeing it as such is a choice. As a matter of fact, this should be inspiring to you. You should respect a young black man who is willing to stay on-code and stand on principle because if I don’t do it then who will? But’s let’s look at the flipside for a second family
~
The individual who says this is usually either off-code, a complete sambo or a highly fearful individual who thinks they can ignore the problem and leave it for someone else to deal with. It’s only until blacks start talking about empowering themselves that these conversations even start. None of you browbeat motivational speakers, “so-called” influencers and some of your s**tty friends when they walk around sharing condescending quotes and life advice and then calling it “inspiration” or “truth”. You all just ride them like raging bulls. Some of these folks get millions of views and money from basically telling you that your life sucks and its your fault and you think its them keeping it real. When I “keep it real” about anti-black white supremacy, all of a sudden I’m unproductive.White supremacy is negative and oppressive, calling it out is positive and an act of self-love.As they have always said, if you stay silent on or fail to support acts of justice you are actively working against it.

The more manipulative the trope, the harder it is to decipher. I actually dislike Mantle Passing more than Race Swapping because the WS tries even harder to hide their lack of authentic black representation. It’s everything the race swap and then some. Mantle Passing is just as much internal as much as it is external. Having a white character pass the torch to a black character with the same hero name is part of this. Having a white character pass the torch to a black character with a different hero name but similar outfit is part of this. Having a black character be the sidekick of a white character under a similar name,gimmick or set of powers is part of this. Having a black character lead a series name that was once lead by a white character under the same hero name, gimmick or set of powers is part of this.
~
This sub-trope unfortunately exposes our desperation and plays on our emotions more than Race Swapping. Mantle passing is a way of creating unoriginal tokenism while the WS sticks the middle finger at black society saying “We still own you even if you think you got away from us”. Unlike race swapping however, the WS doesn’t have to play both sides much because everyone including more blatant WS are convinced its authentic representation when it isn’t. This is the comic character trope version of blacks working for a historically racist company and then patting themselves on the back for “making changes on the inside” while it’s still white led.

I’ve watched 2 seasons of the Handmaid’s Tale and I saw the black characters aren’t well represented. The show is about a giant trafficking organization called Gilead that snatched up women and forced them to be subjugated and s*xually assaulted.They were forced to have babies for “the greater will of God”. This show is clearly a white feminist incubator.
~
Its a somewhat realistic depiction of human trafficking that ignores the impacts it has had on blacks both present and future. For one, there are hardly any black handmaids. Also they dont discuss how it relates to anti-black slavery given this was a time blacks were subjugated into terrible conditions and r***d. It also misses the present where black women are kidnapped and trafficked daily for their melanin, s*x and organs. The blacks we do see are jokes. Moira is an annoying, homely le***an feminist who doesn’t exhibit any real connection to blackness beyond her appearance. June’s black husband, Luke also seems detached from blackness, outside of his crazy ass ex-wife who is portrayed as a sapphire that made him and his new white wife, June’s life miserable. They took this beautiful black queen away from him just to put him with a below average to unattractive white woman.They love to portray our people as unappealing to be with while showing the “greatness” of “swirling” narratives.The other black characters are portrayed as morally good, but are only side characters esp the brother who helped June who had a white spouse. This is no accident family, its the tragedy used as a ruse to deflect another tragedy.

Brielle Brooks is the daughter of the Marvel Anti-Hero Blade and a black woman named Safron Caulder who was a bartender in Londin that Blade used to date. Brielle herself obviously has vampire blood because Blader is her father.Her mother tries to keep it secret so she doesnt end up going down the same path as her father. She seems to live a normal life until she starts noticing certain physical changes. For example, she plays baseball and breaks her bat due to increased strength. She ends up actually saving her friend from a vampire attack during a video game competition. This was a character that would have been more known in Blade (Vol5) until the writer received what he believed to be justified criticism for being a white person writing a story about blacks
~
Anyway, the pictures I saw of Bri had her looking like those customizable characters you see in video games that have dark skinned and non-black features like she’s East Indian. Nonetheless, a sister has to play her. Luckily shes part FBA/part Non-FBA so many different cultures of black actresses could fit here. Personally, Id pick either Yara Shahidi,Halle Bailey, Willow Smith,Dominique Thorne and Lyric Ross. If I had to pick someone I’d go with Yara Shahidi since shes part FBA (I think) and has a young look. Lyric Ross also looks young and could pull it off to me. Willow Smith has the alternative black girl look, but the jury is out on her acting ability. Anyway, let me know who you are thinking below.

Sometimes I get folks who see me post about anti-black tropes in media and they deflect saying, “I’m simply trying to have fun”. The main word that frustrates me in that is the word “simply”. They act as if I’m talking about something that really isn’t all that deep when in fact it is. The truth is they are using that statement to practice escapism. It’s a big cover up, coping mechanism especially given they aren’t actually denying my claim. Blacks especially those who are blerds and definitely bleeks tend to practice escapism and use the art piece of their interests (games, comics,shows etc) to escape from the reality that its full of harmful messages. In other words, they find ways to overlook the anti-blackness and still enjoy the content. The first issue with this mentality is they aren’t being real about what’s happening. They’d rather be frustrated that its being brought up than address it. Second, they try to mentally transcend WS although it’s still happening. It’s like seeing a strawberry covered in s**t, but wanting to still eat it because it can be “washed off”. Third, they believe they can avoid a race war (or at the very least being canceled) when we are already at war. Understand, there’s a difference between fear and cowardice. Its okay to be afraid, but it’s not okay to do nothing about it.
We blerds must learn the art of discernment. We have to learn to enjoy the product or at least observe while also knowing the deeper messages that are being crafted into it. And if it is too bothersome, make our own or support blacks making their own with better messages.
