Black is nothing more than another name for AAs. If you are in a place where the majority of people of African descent are AA then they will assume that the others are too but most of the world isnt like that. In many places, people will make the distinction between you ,a west African and a native.


Not a single person replying is thinking about Jamaica

So the color distinction of black in the world is viewed as AA?

Or is the word black only synonymous with AAs?

Bolt looking like "what is the poking me in my back?"

Isn't Bolt Jamaican

The sad thing is that these are the main one's talking about, "What we need to do is". Can't even read a three paragraph internet article where not one single AA is even showed as being outraged but got the solutions to everything. I really believe a lot of these dudes on here stay ready to shyt all over their own for some daps/rep.

For many it's all about likes/daps/rep. It's like my supposed pro black fb friends. If something they feel strongly about doesn't get a bunch of likes or shares they won't pursue it further regardless of how serious it is. A part of them cares obviously. But the thrill of internet accolades is what really drives them. It drives a lot of folks' online behavior.

As a breh, this is actually kinda hilarious

Forget Ellen being lesbian and imagine the implications: On one hand, Bolt could be said to be a mule/the help, but on the flipside he's an alpha male who has other races of women willing to 'ride' him to cuck their men. Nothin makes cac males angrier than being in the presence of a breh that physically outclasses them.

Some folks have a slave mentality, some folks think they're kings and queens. I think I'm a king, so my first thought was, "I'm glad she photoshopped herself on Bolt's back instead of Phelps, reinforces track is more dominant than swimming contrary to what a lot of people are saying this week"

Also, she's a comedienne first, folks with the outrage need to chill before they set us back. I keep having to remind folks, we can't be out here losing credibility trying to fight surface level fights without having all our ducks in a row.

This is just stupid.

I was looking for something to be offended by and didn't see it.



Twitter is annoying to me lately. I just talk to myself now when I'm on there and don't interact with many people unless they do so first.

Alot of attention seekers, weirdos, and emotionally/mentally disturbed peopel looking to take their anger out on someone or something on there.

This was the biggest reach I seen in a long time. There is systematic racism going on this country as we speak and this is what these twitter activists choose to be upset by.

I feel like it wasn't meant to be racist but for some reason deep down it kinda made me uncomfortable.
