Is there any proof that this generation is "Softer" than previous generations?

[Uncle Kingpin]

Imma let yall finish, but anybody who wasn't old enough to remember where they were were when pac or big died, or was in elementary school when 9/11 happened aint from my generation.

And for all the downtalk, i'm not talking about black girls. They're making moves, getting degrees and makin something of themselves.
Almost 200 posts and not one female has cosigned yall as not being soft yet

If you didn't get to truly experience the 90's, then you lost.

GOAT decade in America.

Sega, Super Nintendo, Playstation, The Internet, Biggie & Pac, Illmatic, Super Soakers, Fresh Prince of Bel Air
i could go on...

Dudes really forgot how much gangsta rap was hated when it hit the scene.

The media pushed it long enough and hard enough to brainwash everyone into thinking that it was the GOAT of all rap. People eventually gave in to that shyt and even duped people into thinking that engaging in fukkery or be indirectly involved in shyt was the thing to be.

The actual rapping was fine, the subject matter probably wasn't. The fukkery was actually going on before gangsta rap though.. it's after when crime started to go down that they were still pushing it... life started to imitate art instead of the other way around.

This generation is definitely softer and more childish, women and men ...

Mexicans are the poorest large ethnic group after Blacks If you would have said Africans, Arabs or Asians, you may have had an argument, but then I would counter that immigration picks the best and brightest to come over as adults with much more proficiency than the average American young adult that is spit out by our shytty school systems and neighborhoods. Face it, you old nikkas ate good and now there's nothing left at the table.

i'm pretty sure there are more hispanics than blacks in the US.

Blacks have been at a stagnant 12% for damn near 40 years

I hate to admit it because its so fun...but violent music that we've embraced has probably led to more indirect violence than any other form of media I can ever think of.

Especially when music adheres to this claim of "authenticity" above all other forms of media.

You've literally got dudes trying to show how "real" they are by adhering to tall tales in their rhymes.

Kinda have to respect dudes like Drake who come out and say "when I wake up, I don't have to fake who I am or remember to be someone else"

What does that have to do with what I said lol

They're slightly larger in population but slightly more well off, hence the second poorest large ethnic group

This generation is too spoiled, too privileged and hasn't been through any defining hardships. I'd say 9/11, but most of them were toddlers and tweens back then. In general, I just think it's weak compared to generations past. It's a generation with no identity, no purpose, and no personality. They don't know who they are and they have no idea who they want to be...just WHAT they want to be.

Lost, drugged out, over stimulated from the media, bought and sold every second, and lacking substance.

Freed slaves helped as many of the enslaved as they could also escape. They did not catch amnesia like Jay Z or whatever uppity upperclass negro thinks he is something because some White man accepted him in the fold. The battle was won, the ones who made it got comfortable and we are losing the war.

Let's take note of 2 things

1. Clothes don't make you soft because your dad and uncles were wearing bell bottoms, blouses and platforms

- so if you come In here mentioning skinnies

2. The people on here calling people soft more than likely ain't about no type of real life situations that make them a real nikka

You're an anomaly

You watch sports but you love drake

You lift weights but you stan Rihanna

You would wife a slut but you don't like white women

 

[HollowPoints2]

Of course this generation is softer. if you look at previous generations like Malcolm X and Fred Hampton senior, they were all in their twenties during that movement.This generation of black people in their 20's today are nowhere near the conscious level as Fred Hampton senior or Malcolm X. I consider myself to be a conscious black person at age 27 but I'm a minority.
