I can't stand Blavity or “new” type of black folks :unimpressed:

These types try to act as if they're intellectuals doing black ppl favors by nagging, twisting and picking apart every aspect of black culture :martin:

Who raised these MFs cause I doubt their own parents would do or say these things smh :snoop:

bytches in they feelings about fat jokes but love Martin who constantly made jokes about big heads, nappy heads, and unappealing chicks, while he get short jokes and big ears, and being broke/cheap jokes every episode.

Same with Fresh Prince when uncle Phil get fat jokes every episode (they probably brush pass that because he’s a black male):mjpls:
Carlton get short jokes and being a suburban kid all the time.



Dead ass can’t take these hoes serious on Twitter.

they mentioned Martin as well and the fat jokes regarding uncle Phil. If you click the tweets and go through the threads you’ll see it

And the funny thing about Martin. Gina wasn’t the most sought after one anyway. Mostly every side character on that show wanted Pam. Even down to Martin’s best friends. And Gina and Pam both worked at the same fukking office. Are these people retarded?
I was thinking the same thing. Pam has suitors. I was wondering why that tweet said Pam was presented as not being able to get a man. Pam was the butt of jokes mostly at Martins expense. Not at the expense of other men per se. She and Tommy dates for goodness sake. :snoop:

And Cole liked her before Tommy did. And all of Martin’s alter ego’s like Pam more. Pam got all the love when it came to singing as well even tho Gina could sing too. They knew Pam was the stronger singer. Only person who really joked on Pam was Martin. Even Martin’s mom liked Pam more.

They don't care about the side characters, it's the fact that the star of the show wasn't with Pam.

When it comes to Pam, a lot of it has to be projection. These people have probably never actually seen the show and are just regurgitating all the think pieces they've read.

You can't judge a 90s show with 2020 standards. What you can do is look back and appreciate how far society has come.

Sometimes 'woke Twitter' aggravates me. When I saw Moesha was trending this morning, I figured it was because of this. People on the internet love to critique the fun out of absolutely everything. I watch/stream shows to be entertained. It feels like some people watch shows to critique it. It must be exhausting, always having your 'critic hat' on
