This is why I avoid the locker room, especially the ass end of long threads.
That doesn't answer the question b. Would you take him seriously? I didn't ask whether you would look at his wife and laugh. Could you take Malcolm X talking about the spiritual, physical, mental, economic progress of the people seriously if Betty was Becky?

I can tell you for free he would've got the :camby: even Obama would've received the bushes treatment for the same.

Twitter users attack 'sell-out' black celebrities
BBC Trending What's popular and why

Rapper and actor Common was one of the black celebrities who came in for criticism under the hashtag #BlackCelebsBeLike
Hugely popular black American celebrities are at the receiving end of criticism by black Twitter users using the hashtag #BlackCelebsBeLike.

"Racism was an issue for hundreds of years. Then I got money. I think it's all good now." That's just one sarcastic tweet out of more than 13,000 in the past 24 hours shared under the tag #BlackCelebsBeLike.

"We all the same ... There's no racism with the Internet," one tweet read. Another asked: "How can I complain about racism in Hollywood when we have a Black president?"

Most of the tweets were meant to be heavily ironic and came from African-Americans, attacking the supposed stances of celebrities on everything from interracial relationships to income inequality. The prevailing sentiment was that many famous people turn their back on black causes - in other words, that they get rich and sell out.

"Racism is over," one user tweeted. "All you need is money and a new tax bracket to be accepted."

One popular target was actor and rapper Common, who won an Oscar for his song "Glory" in the film Selma - a movie in which he also played civil rights leader James Bevel. Appearing on the Daily Show on US television earlier this month he urged black Americans to "forget about the past" when it comes to race relations. BBC Trending tweeted to ask him for comment, but he didn't respond.:mjpls:

Others referenced recent remarks by entertainer Raven-Symoné who seemed to defend a remark comparing Michelle Obama to an ape on another American TV show, and actor Terrance Howard who said he was relaxed about white people using the n-word.

One of the first and most influential users of the tag was Zellie Imani, an activist and blogger behind the website Black Culture. "The goal really was to challenge the pedestal we sometimes put celebrities on and not to allow media to use them as spokespersons for [all] black people," he tells BBC Trending via email.

Imani mentioned the remarks by Common and Howard. "I was surprised that the hashtag took off so fast but i wasn't surprised at how many people felt about the issue," he says. "Celebrities experience racism and discrimination even when they are in denial of its existence. Denying racism doesn't make it exist any less."

Do you have to agree with these people opinions in order to buy products that you like.

This thread is pretty damn stupid.

We are in here criticizing a bunch of entertainers for saying shyt that doesn't line up with what we think they should be doing.

These are not black leaders, politicians or anything like that.
The problem is that they have the biggest platform so people get upset about how they use it. It's really that simple and this is not restricted to black people. People get upset whenever a celebrity says something that is different from what they expect them to represent.
