It's forced they played simp out, they played, Unc, and Auntie out, and they about to do the same with YN. It's a difference between creating slang and forcing it. Also that he ain't no damn young person.So why are we mad at young ppl in their teens/20s who have been influenced by the men before them?
What’s the difference between calling someone a YN today and a nikka 10yrs ago?
This is what they grew up watching brehs say
Of course
Why would he say that shyt on National television
Attention whoring and clout chasing has no boundaries.
And I hate to say it but we as black men deserve the blame for this. We use it the most (black women use it too) but black men use it a lot in the presence of other races and be the main ones giving out "n-word passes" to other groups
………A few of you kept it

YN just came from that tik tok censorship shyt (same way people say “unalive” and “pdf file”
YN is supposed to be a term used to describe the wild crashout kids
But just like the word crash out, they let it become a mainstream word so now it’s used in every scenario
It’s really interesting how much power black people have over cultural influence, nikkas could def make positive things like life skills, etc look cool but it be other bullshyt

To be fair, hiphop definitely make it global but plenty of white people where watching Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor Black Exploitation Movies ect long B4 hiphop and the comedians literally turned it into a joke.

This isn't true. LGBT uses that word a lot.It's the logical conclusion to this shyt
Damn near every other group admonishes their slurs and has zero tolerance for it
You don't see jews use k1kė as a term of endearment
You rarely ever see gays say "I'm that phaggot" or "whats up my phaggot"

Why would he say that shyt on National television
Producers told him to be himself and bring that youthful energy. ........ he think he's representing for the culture
Coming out of the mouth from a non-black person near you this summer.....
Interesting how YKs, YS, YC etc aren’t terms that can be coopted since the associated slur wasn’t made a global phenomenon utilized and popularized by their own people. People can dance around it all they want but the fact remains the same.
I mean how we program ourselves to use words and language for good or ill.who's doing the programming?
before it got to espn who was doing the programming?
y'all mans got a conspiracy for everything.
Think about your friend group and someone starts saying something, repeating it, u pick cues and start using it yourself
The poster who I was replying to said how he hates when young ppl use words as much as possible, trying to pigeon hole into everything but I think that's how new slang and language works This is one that needs to die on the vine
