yeah i hate that s***

i agree with what i agree with and disagree with what i disagree with

i dont create a monolith mindset of a certain person due to some opinions

im just wondering when ye went from "And I basically know now, we get racially profiled
'Cuffed up and hosed down, pimped up and ho'd down" to this type s*** lmao

But I ain't even gon' act holier than thou
'Cause f*** it, I went to Jacob with twenty-five thou
Before I had a house and I'd do it again
'Cause I wanna be on 106 & Park, pushin' a Benz

The original message was never tarnished. Nobody except racist outsiders and coons try to minimize it.

I think a lot of white people did, a lot of liberals came off as patronizing or using it to further other causes

You’re right you definitely might be wrong

its text on a t shirt. I get what you are saying but acting like its the end of the world or selling a t shirt with Breona Taylors face on it or everyone being like "I watched the George Floyd Video"(I will never watch it). It partially becomes are we selling Trauma. Its a genuine question.

@ShintaroKago makes sense when you realize he just be devil's advocate for the lulz.

Damn people weren't around during the donda rollout

Donda thread from one of the listening parties

OG is about how he brought the wrong hard drive and jay z in jail

oooooooh man lmfao

The original message of Black Lives Matter was tarnished based on

1. What they did with the money
2. Political figures using the slogan while being against defunding the police or improving black lives in any way
3. Shirts and merch being sold as well as who organized the marches more becoming photo ops

But that has nothing to do with the slogan and more to do with the organization my nigga lmfao

I am really not. I explore discussing it to guess at what his aim is. What his actual aim is I am not 100% sure only he knows but I approach it with good faith rather than "Ye an edgy racist" when multiple other black people worked on the show with him too

which gets to can you separate the slogan from the organization which is part of my point because many don't separate it or connect both at all times. I am asking

im ngl as someone who is white this is the hardest to defend him for lmao

bush, taylor, fashion etc... all easy

i actually am struggling here wtf mahn

"I get down for my grandfather who took my momma
Made her sit in that seat where white folks ain't want us to eat
At the tender age of 6, she was arrested for the sit-ins
And with that in my blood I was born to be different"

why you post a 8 year old tweet

A black man promoting white lives matter is dangerous lol. Whites don already attempted to hijack the message and apply to police officers and everyone else that’s not black. Y’all gotta understand words and messages mean a lot. Ye have a chunk of his fanbase that’s white and racist. His lack of awareness is outstanding.

yes you do.

and we act like multiple people can't also be on kanye's same type of timing.

Kanye himself don't believe what he wearing he's literally doing this s*** for promo. This the most anyone's talked about him in months lol.

he was not writing that s***!

BLM the organization =/= the message of BLM

other black people working on this show with him doesn't really matter, because what matters is what message you are promoting to the mainstream and what gets to be acceptable in public discourse

this event is especially worrying to me because it launders obvious white supremacist messaging through a figurehead of black culture as a proxy, this has been a thing for a long time though, although on the fringes of both black and white nationalist movements

racism doesn't necessarily have to be someone wearing a klan uniform and screaming slurs

I guess I am asking do you think all the black people on there are just edgy?

I am really not I am asking to best understand what y'all think. I understand the aim of the shirt especially paired with the speech. Same way the 400 years of slavery s*** makes sense when you again include modern day slavery.

I just think how he words things is off but I get it
