They not gon get it because they don’t realize they are bonding with racists in a desperate attempt to humble or control blks in their own community. And The gender shyt is a gateway drug to racist leanings. But that’s a topic for another day.

For right now, Fukk the Olympics and any expectation that we should “behave” or “perform” for a country that can’t stand us. All blk athletes need to start trolling these events.

I wish Simone had gon out there, gotten on the beam, threw her middle finger up, jumped off and landed professionally and walked away.:russ:

Preach! Although I'm not so sure they're not realizing their bonding with racists. It's always the same fools making and applauding these threads, trying to import fox news grievance politics into black discourse.

Can't read 8 pages of this, what's the issue here?
Optics. One side feels that this is embarrassing because she is using twerking as a form of protest and tribute and feel that public twerking is act of shucking and jiving and that calling out this behavior is holding ourselves to a higher standard. The other side feels that it is not a big deal and that this is fake outrage by posters who're worried about white respectability instead of supporting a successful black Olympian.

The twerking was not the protest.

True. The X' was but the controversy in the thread is her twerking at the Olympics.
No, it started out with people shytting on her because she's gay and because her protest was intersectional and then they proceeded to calling her black and ugly.
