Nah street dudes damn sure aint rebelling against the "system". That's my point, a lot of these nikkas is set up to lose from the beginning. Going to schools where not getting jumped is more of a priority than any type of homework. Why should they give a fukk about their community if we don't give a fukk about them? It just fukks me up how quick y'all are to renounce your so-called "brothers"
Nope, not even, not me. But the fact that there is a market, that does not give a man a right to supply. Obviously, everybody wants to eat, but in building himself up, he tears down other people. A fiend is only as strong as his next fix. Lacking a fix will make or break his character. "fukk this, I can't do it anymore." or "I have to get something....anything!" Thats on him. But the dopeman not only serving the fiends, he making this shyt visible to the kids. The short sighted are those who sell, fueling the hoods demons. Even if he moves out, he inevitably has to remember what he hath wrought in his wake. You don't have to be a part of the system that weakens the community.
Put it to you this way. Fast money typically precedes loose morals. While a fiend arguably take advantage of a pastime that hurts himself (assuming there isnt a family relying on him), the dope man continues to push a toxic product at others expense. He is trying to get his way out, but doing it in a sleazy way. Hell, how many nikkas we know sell shyt but NEVER get out. They never have a plan, they just don't want to work a legit job. Never care to be shyt, just always trying to hit a lick. There are the lost souls and the ones that forsake their own souls. I can fukk with the former, but the latter have to figure it out for themselves.
shyt is absurd bruh. It's like dudes have a rating system of how good of a black person you are these days. Ironic how the same dudes talking bout c00ning are out here doing everything they can to distance themselves from their brethren.
Accountability. Fiends are fiends by choice. I feel no sympathy for them unless somebody slipped them some shyt and got em strung out. It's also plenty of "functional" addicts. Everybody ain't a zombie. In the drug game it's enough money for everybody, why you need to be "King"? Why you need to shine?
You oversimplify what we're talking about for the sake of your argument.
This I can agree with. The word c00n has been throw around a bit too much by some people who seem to make up the meaning as they go. Im not saying we have to condemn everyone who does wrong, but they deserve nothing and should be lucky if someone other than their moms gives a shyt about them. When you resort to thuggery, you make it hard to sympathize with you.
Never said you have to be attentive to fiends, and the drug game would be all gravy with me if it didn't affect the kids. This isn't zero sum for sure, but the community is only as strong as its weakest.
The weakest is sometimes neither a dealer or a fiend....
No, man, don't come at me with that shyt. I spent 4 years looking for work, and now by the gift of gab, ive been through 7 in the past 11 months. Been employed for a full 5. It took a while, and I found my groove, and now im working the hell out of it. They are victims usually because they grow up in poor areas with NO investment and NO opportunity, shytty schools, and parents who can't really help them do much better. Where they stop becoming victims is when they make the hood their own bankroll. If they leave, great, but the hood is still the hood, and the new homies coming up will deal with the same bullshyt.You oversimplify what we're talking about for the sake of your argument.
Because getting a job as a black man in America must be a cakewalk right
These dudes are both victims and perpetrators in a system designed to make sure nobody really wins. I'd rather do what I can to save them, by condemning them you offer no solution.
This is what im saying, and the kids who have bad parents have to find rolemodels somewhere. He very well may be the dopeman with the flash timepiece and a different slut every day.
That's my point, the dopeman is indicative of greater problems within the community. Drugs are sold everywhere in America, but there aren't hoods everywhere. That's why I'm saying your oversimplifying this, there are far more factors at play than some selfish nikkas tryna make quick cash
