C@cs say "Thug" and c00ns say "Militant"

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

But it all means the same shyt.

A black man who "dares" to question the societal norms established by white people to better their own cause.

We all know "thug" is the new n-word. So how do we feel when "our own kind" use it's hateful equivalent "militant"?

There's no need for either at this point in time. They're both cancerous.

You talking about cacs and c00ns right??

YES! 100%.

Let me tell y'all something and I'm gonna make this brief. When you are a black man or woman and instead of talking about the wrongs of a racist society and the people who fuel it, you're quick to flip the script and make it about black people...whether it's about "black on black" crime or saying "what are you going to do about it" as if speaking out about it is not equal to taking some sort of neccessary action to correcting the injustices perpetrated by this society and the system, or just calling that person saying it a "militant" i the derogatory sense...you are a part of the problem and defending this corrupt and hypocritical system by default.

Alright, it's like these folks don't want to get it or have had their comfort zone shaken up and they still want to believe that they are impervious from racism...they aren't and the truth isn't supposed to make them comfortable. They'll never be accepted in a society that views them as not equal and they refuse to see it.

So, if your job is to point out "militants" and not the people or the society that made them that way...what does that make y'all? I've been saying this for ages and people don't want to get it.

You will not believe how many black posters (supposedly black) I've had to put on ignore cause I was tired of their dumbshyt...I have no tolerance for racism or the people that are willing to live under this system that refuse to believe there is a problem and make us the source of all of our problems without even analyzing the source of those problems in the first place.

I hear everything you are saying but there is a grey area in between c00n and militant. We love to go with extremes. But cats should be able vent their frustration with white supremacy. We, a lot times, are just too quik to call other black people c00ns/bed wenches or militants.

 

[At30wecashout]

I get the frustration on all sides, and @*L*E*G*A*C*Y* spoke that real shyt. I just think between the lines, not everyone understands the gravity of our ignorance toward the real. Others just want to better understand the extent of our brethren frustrations. The problem I have seen lately is expressing either of the last two perspectives leads to being called a cac/c00n, and opens the floodgates for hurt feelings. Throwing those terms out so loosely alienates people who very well could could be a great ally had you met on better terms.

I feel where y'all are coming from...I don't want to unfairly judge another black person to quickly before they state their case.

c00ns say militant because they're uncomfortable with the mix of aggression and enlightenment.

A lot of black posters are ignoramuses that being ignorant is being "black"and "real."

I mean, look at the shyt that socially conscious rappers go through when they address white supremacy. Even the older posters were the same ones that undermined Public Enemy back in the day.

A lot cats left PE by the wayside when gangsta rap fully took over in the mid 90s . Granted their music tailed off quite a bit but cats weren't even checkin for em.
