That energy she is describing from drug dealers is just a result of them having disposable income and not having to constantly struggle and put up with the degradation that comes with being a working-class black man in America.
It's fukked up because it's so hard to make it as a black man in America, a lot of black men have to "cheat" to not die to make it to the finish line.
But I always say you can't shame dude for trying to do it the right way, but that's exactly what happens in a lot of black communities. Because if you lose honestly, you're still a loser; and if you win cheating you're still a winner (as long as you don't get caught).
And the effect this has on young boys is clear, because how can you tell them something is wrong but that's the only thing they see gets rewarded in their community.
There is cognitive dissonance in a lot of these women that want the American Dream, but don't really want to go through the multi-generational struggle it takes for low-income blacks to achieve that.
They want the shortcuts just as much as men do, if not more.
But imma cap it with this, the biggest drug dealers in Houston are Asians, outside of cartel activity, and still somewhat on the street level. Nobody notices them, they wash their money and use that money to achieve the American dream.
Everybody is cheating, blacks just have the most eyes watching and trying to prevent them from cheating.
