Why is everyone so content with the way VH1 exploits black people

[Smoke]

Dating back to the original flavor of love

And the irony is that the main audience is black people.

I mean they seemingly just throw out reality shows every few months with a full black cast and they just sell themselves

Better question is, why is ratchet behavior tolerated and endorsed in our own community?



People talk shyt about Miley but praise Nicki

I only watched the Flavor of Love for the ass & titties,lol.....I havent even watched VH1 since then. It's the new BET I guess---only more ratchet.

Because, by and large, Black people embrace ignorance.

Only when upper-echelon Blacks feel disrespected do we raise hell about it. See my thread from earlier:

http://www.thecoli.com/threads/now-were-mad-sorority-sisters.277325/

Black people watch more TV than any other group and this is primarily driven by Black women. Apparently, they like to see themselves degraded and shown in a negative light.

But, only when it doesn't include "Greek" letters.

It is because in general, people are just full of shyt.

slime who the fukk cares

you a grown ass man

its so much more shyt that you could focus on rather than how other GROWN ADULTS decide to behave

Because black people have been dumbed down.

When I go to the barbershop in my old neighborhood it's depressing.

My people feed into every stereotype.

Don't get it twisted I hate racist and cacs but their not always the ones to blame because your lazy as fukk and sit around watching tv and playing games all day

i see brothers and sisters these days as over sexualized horny individuals who embrace drama and ignorance and blame every external thing for their problems as opposed to looking within themselves.

Always late always loud always think it's cool to be ignorant.

Mind you these nikkas go to church every weekend along with the club smoking weed and drinking and living pay check to pay check.

Can tell you more about sports then about anything else. Got kids they can't afford and can tell me about every episode of love and HipHop along with whatever song is hot on the radio.

shyt is depressing as fukk


Like literally is hurts to watch.

You can't save folks who don't want to be saved I realized that my work with children will be more effective then with adults their already stuck in their ways. fukk em

Exactly. It's pretty sad, breh.

Our community embraces ignorance. No other community embraces ignorance like we do. The results speak for themselves.

VH1 used to be an Exclusive WHITE ARTIST CHANNEL. They promote the most NEGATIVE aspects of Black People nowadays though. fukk THAT NETWORK and fukk the Black People who watch that crap.

wait a sec homie. VH1 had a shytload of cac shows too (rock of love, daisy of love , that one white bytch that wanted a millionaire i forget her name)

 

[UpAndComing]

Cause that's what those Black People chose to do with their life. I know I care about my ancestors, learn about my history, etc
But there's tons of Black people who don't give a shyt about that, don't wanna better themselves. Black people who would travel 3000 miles to LA to c00n it up on VH1 and BET, but won't travel 5 blocks to help their Black Brothers and Sisters. Some even think you're a threat and disrespecting them by giving them the knowledge

I learned this lesson a while ago. You should never have a bleeding heart for the spiritually dead. You can't save everyone. That made me at peace with myself, and to accept the spiritually dead people for who they are. Learning that opened my eyes to connect with Black People who are on the same spiritual plane as me. If the Spiritually dead wanna exploit themselves, then so be it

Brb, watching Love and Hip Hop Hollywood, on Demand

 

[Mr.Forte]

Flava Flav and Brigitte Nielsen's show "Stange Love" was funny though, I won't lie.

 

[Sleepy Walker]

You really can't look at them and compare us to them we're on 2 different playing fields

No they don't. lol

Anyway - everybody exploits everybody. I just don't watch the chit.
