The YN word was toxic from jump and I told these ignant knee grows, now habib and akash calling your kids YNs

[The Intergalactic Koala]

the term "YN" should be used for young goons... not random kids

this is like the word "fukkboy" being b*stardized by social media

Breh what cacs did to "fukkboy" is a abomination to mankind.

A funny ass southern term to call a head goofy, being stoop to everything

Reminds me of when youngins in Savannah was using Philly slang like jawn.

Not much different from nikka at this point

Nıgga please

Goofy shyt and I knew where it would end up soon as it started trending. Seeing Black men doing skits about being scared of YN's like that's literally not reinforcing the idea that young brehs are crash dummies. Like you telling the entire world young Black men are scary and unpredictable. What a stupid time to be alive. No militant minds. Everything isn't jokes.

Yep.

Like the youngins rocking ski mas.....er nevermind about that one

If I see dudes in skinnies, nbs, and sheisties in 90 degree weather, I'm walking the other side of the one way

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Watch by the end of the year how far on the wrong side this shyt goes. YN's = super predators as per definition. Don't let that get lost on anyone.

Unfortunately a lot of our community is ignorant and under educated.


We have to be real about the impacts of that.

Said that term was terrible on threads and received backlash

I hate it.

 

[King Static X]

Hasn't the ship sailed decades ago on the usage of the word "n*gga"?

 

[Gloxina]

It’s corny and anyone who says it is indirectly making light on the level of violence the average blk person in America has to experience

Nothing funny about “a group of YNs asked me if I wanted some weed so and I got the whole QP just so they wouldn’t rob unc”

Thing is, #1- who created the term “YN”, and #2- who decided to adopt/use it, especially on social media, etc?

#1
#2



This shyt is just like the “n word”. Everybody wants to say it because it’s in our music and many of us use it colloquially or as a “term of endearment”.

It was wrong then and it’s wrong now.


WE are doing this and WE are using these terms all over social media.

It’s the same thing all over again.


Wasn’t there a thread here a few weeks ago talking about age ranges for brehs? “YNs are 18-?” “Unc is 35-”, etc.
Black folks embrace this stuff and then get upset down the road when the negative effects kick in.

The term/acronym “YN” originated from…..? Must be a very influential to spread so quickly.




Folks don’t want to be honest about what is influencing our young men and shaping their image.
