The old “let me diss something popular with black people to get these clicks” tactic... It works every time.. Black Jeopardy is not that serious she need to chill.

My thoughts as one of the more sensible people on the Coli.

1. The skit was super stereotypical. It was probably more offensive than funny tbh
2. Like someone said, Yvette puts her personal image out there and dedicates her life to black people. Also, she's not one of these blinded black feminists and actually sticks up for the black male.

For these reasons, I'm not even mad at her for bringing this up.
Sir Yvette is starting to run in to the double-edged sword of being a outspoken activist like how The Locker Room dont mind her being outspoken if they agree with what she saying when she defending black men being attack by black feminists they said she a real one. but when said something that they dont agree with her on certain subject they are ready to throw her in the bush the same thing is happen to Killer Mike. And I dont have a problem with anyone disagree with certain view points she has I dont always see eye to eye with what she said some times but I not going to throw her to bush because of it .

I say this all the time. Classic black sitcoms of the 90s wouldve never gone over in this gen. From Martin to Fresh Prince to The Wayans Bros to Jamie Foxx. nikkas wouldve cut ALL that shyt at the legs by complaining about everything. We arent allowed to be quirky or slapstick in the same way white people are. We take ourselves way too seriously and everyone is behind a computer screen and on their high horse and can have voice that’s heard.

There was nothing quirky about the skit tho. It was just stereotypical ignorant shyt.

The difference between us and whites in this context is that whites have balance. They’re ignorant stereotypical humor is balanced by tons of positive images and portrayals. We’re losing while they’re winning.

The question is how do we stop losing? I don’t think that you end losing streaks by continuing to do the same shyt that you’ve always done. I was basically a kid in the early 90s when watching shows like martin. If I knew then what I know now I’d certainly look at some of that shyt differently. As funny as martin was, there was a lot of buffoonery.

My nikka imma keep it 100. Ive seen way worse than what this chick is complaining about. What im saying is we have way more important shyt to be mad about than some snl skit that wasnt even that serious. Look at all the black comedy over the years. Go even 4 decades back. There’s shyt thats even more stereotypical that we call classic. What im saying is ive seen worse and this shyt aint really worth the sweat.

This is true and honestly I think its because some cats not all are insecure as fukk. Those types don't want to look bad in the eyes of others idgaf what nobody says and that's some sad shyt to me.

Comedians are c00ns per se. You gotta be retarded to get wound up by some mild c00ning on SNL. It's people like this feeding right wing talking points about free speech and PC culture.
