His BAWG (Busted) aside, it’s extremely disappointing that he made his studio negro proof. He can hire anyone he wants and he’s not obligated to put black folk on… but damn, when you know the barriers black people face in tech, you really couldn’t hire one black man/woman?

He’s not naive or whitewashed to the point where he doesn’t see it. Zuckerberg said he got put on because he’s Jewish. The people who bankrolled him said they gave him a chance because he’s one of their own. And there’s nothing wrong with that. I’ve seen this repeated throughout the corporate world.

We’re the only group who make it and rarely put our own on. I’m not talking about handouts, I’m talking about infrastructure and interdependence. It’s extremely disappointing that he hired all CACs but again, it’s his business, he can do what he wants.
When did he say this?

Regardless of being Jewish, Zuckerberg grew up rich, and was already well-known in the burgeoning tech community before he even got to college.
He was already linked with private equity firms and created an app used by the wealthiest college kids on the planet :dead:
His first investments didn't come from Jewish funders, they came from libertarian weirdos like Peter Thiel

Yes, they do.

Stop this pathetic crying. I've had experience with suburban Black women for decades now :mjlol:
Suburban Black girls like any boy they think is cute - doesn't matter if he's "hood" or not.

These incel-lite echo chambers have poisoned y'all nikkas to no return.


Surprised he hasn’t been mentioned yet
Same type of nygga but with a black chick
And she is pretty attractive

Re the pool of candidates

I generally think that issue is wildly overstated.....tech companies love to use ut and then we get the constant stream of stories about their hiring, interview and workplace practices

In fact they hire white candidates with meagre credentials they would never let black people slide with

I saw a tik tok floating around on twitter...i will aee if i can dig it back up...about how some interviewers intentionally give harder questions to minority candidates

Now back to Marcus... i dont know who applied so I cant slander him.....but I feel comfortable saying if he made an effort to find great minority candidates he would see they exist

But again...path of least resistance....

He doesnt actively harm black people in any way...let that young man live his life

Mae are underrepresented in tech. I’m often thr only or one of a few. I know part of it is racial but also think part of it is lack of volume. My program had less than 10 of us.

Anyways, I’m just dying we don’t know who applied and who got interviews. It is wild to make assumptions based on the staff which is quite small. I hope someone asks him about it though. It will kill all the speculation.

Dude built his shot from the ground up…. But we got cats coming at him. Let him live. People love to spend other people’s money.

Sure he can actively look for some black employees…maybe he did and it didn’t work out. None of us know. Why have a meltdown over it?

Is this a new pawg? I could have sworn I seen pics of a different skinnier plain Jane he was dating not too long ago.
But whatever let the man PAWG in peace. I just hope he doesn't flush everything he's worked for down the drain with some gold digger. Also it looks kind of uncomfortable in all the pics post along side ol girl specially in contrast to his sister.

His wife and family is black, and he reviews shyt that's relatable. He has some black people around him at least. His wife is heavily featured on his channel. I know he's at least had a breh on staff on his channel. :yeshrug:
timestamped.




Like i said, for MKBHD it's cool he's successful, but it's clear he's been "gone" for a long time, you don't ever really see him around other black people outside of the few times he and uravconsumer linked up purely for youtube tech videos. Other than that dude surrounded by non-blacks and making more and more videos that his own audience can't relate to with this high-end shyt. And i'll add i haven't heard him ever say anything blatantly c00ning, so that's why i'm not fully going there with dude.


You won’t hear him c00n because he keeps everything political correct and on brand about tech. When George Floyd got murdered he did a “reflecting on the color of my skin” video which was only time I saw him break character on that and even the white YouTubers we’re making similar videos

My point is neither of them are pro black.
I think uravconsumer just grew up in a more black area than MKBHD

MKBHD is that dude. I've been following his content for a while because he was one of the few (at the time) on the map that was black and putting out quality tech reviews. I find most cac reviewers insufferable ( LinusTech for example) with all the silly shyt, but MKBHD was at least chill, direct and likable. The lack of "real nikka energy" was apparent as fuk from the first video viewing, but it didn't matter.. He was a nikka doing dope shyt, opening up the lane for others like him.

As far as the cac chick, no offense to him, but he always came across as in the closet to me. I'm not buying that relationship. There's pet negro vibes in all of those cac pictures with him. However, I wish him the best.

I remember when he revealed that he broke his hand jumping in the air playin disc golf with cacs and listened to deadmau5 and cac music heavy and yeah.. he's not into black culture. It's cool though, that's his style. Every nikka aint gotta be Tariq Nasheed. There's a huge bag in being a white washed, soft spoken, walking on eggshells nikka, I get it. I'm sure if you search his tweets, you'll find the typical "I'm not black enough for the blacks" post in there some where.

FlossyCarter or UrAverageConsumer keep it a buck though. Aint no tap dancing in their videos.

Gotta admit, it's hilarious seeing dudes twist themselves into pretzels trying to defend dudes blackness when he wouldn't even hire them if they applied and met qualifications :mjlol:

Who's defending his blackness? This stupid thread should not be this long. Dude started from nothing and through a lot of hard work did his thing. Went to school got his degree (when a lot of mafukkaz in his position wouldnt have) and built a nice company for himself. Cats will come here and shyt on here then go to another thread and pump demonic music and defend womanizers and murderers. Dude is an inspiration...yet yall focussed on his staff. GTFOH.
