Man I was foot racing my youngest cousins and we were talking trash back n forth.. After I beat her, she said black men are not good for anything and are nothing but ATMs and Wallets. I was SO SHOCKED. I never really heard those terms as slang but knew they were some internet type lingo, my ears perked up.. She peeped my change in tone but it was too late, so I started asking her about it.. Next thing she saying oh black men dont like dark skin girls and all this BS. Im like, yooooo.. Your dad is with your mom who is dark skin, your uncle is with your aunt who is dark skin, your grandparents are both darkskin, I had to explain what people say online you have to press it up against real life.. That is not true, My mind was blown for a second. I try not to talk down on these kids because they will tune you out after awhile .. But this was something that caught me off guard..
Anyway, I get home and talk to ol lady and it was still on my mind, I let her know and she was like maybe she got it on tiktok, I was like HELL YEA.. She been on it since it was musically or whatever, she was first person I knew who was on it heavy since she was little. She only 13 talking like this.. People living online ALOT more and women Consume social media more than anyone, this stuff and ideas are sticky as hell and people are going to look for answers to their problems, its only going to get worse. Sad times ahead.
