The comparison is bogus.

If Steph Curry looked the same but was darker he would be treated the same. He has a clean cut look, it has nothing to do with his complexion.

Klay is whiter than him, but he has a nose like a jew, and doesn't have a baby face like steph. It is was what it is.
So you're saying colorism doesn't exist? Lighter complected blacks aren't seen as less threatening, smarter, more likely to get hired (over darker complected black people), more likely to receive a lighter jail

sentence? Light skinned privilege absolutely does exist. Sure, there are exceptions to the rule. But then theres the rule.

“I mean who cannot notice the media’s clear favorability to Stephen Curry? He’s of fair complexion … and his eyes are a pretty cool color, too.”

"Iverson and Durant’s comments, as well as those on the Internet, nod to a pecking order where lighter-skinned blacks were perched atop the racial hierarchy of rewards."

The Coli told me that white people can't see a difference in skin complexion, and that we're all black to them. The Coli told me that light skinned privilege doesn't exist, and that to acknowledge its existence is divisive....:jbhmm:
:heh: at the 2 idiots who dapped this nonsense.

Post some proof of this other than from your imagination and inferiority complex. When throughout history as this proven true. Here's a non threatening light skin kid looks just like curry when he was younger. What happened to him.

Curry is non threatening because he's non threatening not because he's light skin. He's looks like a boy that's why he's non threatening. Tyson Chandlier is light skin and nobody says anything like his about him, because he doesn't look like a fukking child.

Charles Barkley was high yellow before he moved to Arizona got a tan, and he was the typical angry black man to white folks before he went super saiyan c00n.

Malcolm X was just as light as Steph Curry lmao and they called him a militant lmao and was scared of him.

You are projecting your own feelings on reality and not backing it up with anything tangible.

Tony Parker was balling hard for years, nobody said shyt about his skin tone when he won the Finals MVP.

If it wasn't for c00ns in the media we wouldn't even be talking about this right now.

***Notably, individuals perceived to possess higher levels of Afrocentric features (e.g., dark skin, full lips, wide nose, coarse hair) have been subject to increased negative stereotyping (e.g., alleging heightened levels of aggression; see Blair, Chapleau, & Judd, 2005), leading to real-world repercussions, such as receiving longer prison sentences for crimes equated for severity and priors (Blair, Judd, & Chapleau, 2004; Viglione, Hannon, & DeFina, 2011).”

***Those who were perceived to be light skinned received sentences that were, on average, 12% shorter than their darker counterparts. The amount of actual time served was approximately 11% less.

Asians are dark skinned to white people

we know white people are white supremacist it's called scientific racism, Steph would fall into the same category in that first link by their logic.

And that second link provides no factual data and talks about one prison in South Carolina, and doesn't even state what the charges were.

It's garbage.

Big Meech is a light skin nikka and in that bytch doing football numbers, being light skin ain't gonna save him.

John Forte was dark skin and pardoned by George Bush the President.

I just gave you two specific cases, nothing was specific in that article at, we don't even get to look at the individuals.

It's bullshyt.

you're just a walking pile of excuses, a weak man, you wish you were light skin. You disgust me nikka, I wish death upon because someone this weak serves no purpose to our people.

Also, what does this have to do with Steph Curry looking like a teenager and being able to shoot 3's.

Nothing.

Nothing about Stepth Curry's skin tone has helped him or hurt him in his profession, nothing.

Light skinned privileged does exist. To deny this is to deny that colorism exists. But, if you want to stay in denial, rather than accept reality, then fine.

No it doesn't.

It exist in your fukking mind because you believe you are inferior, that's the white supremacist ideology most nikkaz walk around here brain washing.

I asked to show me in reality where this privilege exists, and you gave a link to a half ass article, that had zero data or anything to cross examine.

The fact only black people talk about this shyt, shows it only exists in the minds of your color struck negroes. It's Pitiful.

The fact you think Steph curry is considered non threatening because he is light skin and not because he looks as soft as marshmellow shows you are color struck.
