Embarrassing trends in the Black community

[Mac Ten]

• Diaspora Wars
• Black ppl not being able to forgive eachother
• Black ppl admiring gangs, like they’re not just dysfunctional groups that commit perpetual Black genocide.
• Drill music
• Black ppl valuing sneakers and beats MORE than the dignity of our Ancestors that survived Slavery (KoonYe)
• Black ppl admiring white supremacist ideology in BlackFace as long as they diss Black women (Kevin Samuels)

Drill music was no different than Blaxploitation films

Embracing ignorance

Drill music was no different than Blaxploitation films

In Blaxploitation films the villain, and the person the protagonist was out to get was "the man".
In Drill music, the villain and the person the rapper is out to get is somebody who looks just like himself.

Calling fat women "thick"

 

[Knowledge]

Everything being sexualized

 

[africngiant]

the constant need to stunt and judge each other on every little thing we wear or do

stupid reality tv/l&hh lifestyle worshippers

 

[Kingofthereal]

Acting like black people are a hive mind

this happens across the globe on every continent except Antarctica, but a mufuka on here actin like its "a trend in the black community"

We have the highest rates of OOW children, so clearly it’s more detrimental to us.

 

[Skooby]

Showing up late.

 

[coldcall]

Casually throwing the word nikka around

The difference is, those couples shack up, and stay together for 20 plus years. Are we doing that en masse, or are we having babies by multiple people, and popping in and out of their lives?

I used to do this alot, and still probably do but I'm working on it.

Always point fingers but never have solutions, and not only not have solutions being a part of the problem.

Babies out of wedlock

pointing out something that negatively affects our community like the top quote did, then someone responds with “b-b-but *insert other race* do it too”.

basically whataboutism

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

Using violence as conflict resolution
Going off on people for the slightest offense
Saying “Free (insert name of person who broke the law, and is being punished for breaking the law)
Using improper grammar, and a lack of conjunctions
Not showing up on time
Entire families where everyone has children out od wedlock, and doesn’t stay with the other parent
And I’ve heard a fair share of black men say you don’t need a father, all you need is a mother. Then they claim they didn’t have a dad, and they turned out fine, as they intended to give the mother of their child money, and just visit from time to time.


Basically anything beneath the general social standard, and claiming any criticism is racist, as if we should have our own sub standard rules, and be allowed to do whatever we want
