    well to be fair pretty sure all races get offended by that

    I guess you could find a black person who is offended by that type of stuff for the sake of being offended but words and s*** don’t really hurt me as much as actual structural/systemic racism

    If that went away it really wouldn’t matter what people said to black people

    If your not doing anything to actively combat racism in your personal life but going on about "white guilt" you're actively perpetuating more racism

    You're assuming about me something I never implied bro, I'm all for combatting racism. Since I was a little kid and saw it happen right before my eye. I just don't think feeling guilt gets anyone anywhere.

    Well it depends, anybody would be uncomfortable if someone said "all X people do this bad thing."

    I’ve never really seen anyone say “all white people” they kinda just say white people

    If I was white and I knew I was nowhere near that type of energy I’d understand exactly who they are talking to

    Black Americans have been spoken on in this way for hundreds of years, so us whiteys cant complain.

    I know you meant well by this but we should condemn both. This type of speak has no place in society and for Nick cannon to use his platform to spew such language is a shame

    Okay. He has a 5 Percenters chain on.

    Edit: I’ve deeply studied all of these groups teachings. Was deeply influenced by all of these pro-black groups when I was a bit younger.

    By posting the picture, are you implying that it’s Five Percenters teachings or any other Hotep pseudoscience that made him successful?

    Or that because he’s affiliated with them and found success with his own individual talent and business skill that the pseudoscience such groups put out is somehow validated.

    I just think the rules of the culture should be posted on the door when people come from the outside and enter

    The 5 Percenters and their teachings are a huge pillar in hip hop culture and while you don’t have to subscribe to black supremacist/hotep type views to indulge we also don’t need to s*** on culturally important schools of thought in our culture that have been here for decades for the sake of making outsiders feel comfortable

    I don’t agree that white people are inherently genetically inferior and am gonna do more reading on both sides of this argument before committing firmly to either side

    but we not finna start cancelling legends like Nick bc them white folks mad on Twitter lol. The point of posting Hov is if we take this stance on Nick, who’s next? We finna erase the Wu and Hov if white people get mad at them next? Lol

    "White guilt" is a term invented by white people though. Black people never begged white people to feel guilty just not racist

    Again, I never said otherwise. That's my point, no one needs anyone to feel guilty. Just accept the truth of priveledge and become a better person in response to it.

    So many tragedies in history could’ve been avoided if white people just learned to mind their own business. Still applies today

    I feel you. And I understand the roles groups like the Five Percent Nation has played in hip hop and in people’s lives who needed some sense of structure and community.

    Not sure if you’re saying that’s what I’m doing, but in no way am I s***ting on something to make outsiders feel good. My stance comes from the fact that I was radicalized and influenced by the Five Percenters, Nation of Islam, Hotep/Kemet rhetoric, etc. when I was younger. But eventually realized a good amount of it is nonsense and is targeted at people who aren’t thoroughly educated and/or those who are longing for a sense of community because they can’t find it in dominant society.

    I’m against cancel culture. But also Jay-Z, Wu-Tang, etc. aren’t gonna come out and openly say what Nick just said even if that’s what they believe. He’s free to have any belief he wants to, but this wasn’t smart unless he’s cool with losing the part of his income that was coming from his white audience.

    I'm saying you can empathize without feeling guilt, and guilt is definitely something one can overcome. That's why people feel guilt, so they can learn to over come it and serve as a positive example to combat whatever they may feel guilty about. At least that's how I see it

    You can but many white people feel they’ve done nothing wrong so why should they feel guilty. “ Guilt isn’t necessarily bad. Sometimes it’s even productive. Feeling bad after making a mistake can lead to change, such as an apology or a decision to make different choices in the future.”

    I dont agree with nick cannon on this one obviously but I’m just against whining about anti-white racism because its a nonissue

    Well that's what saying "x people" by itself implies. People be having poor wording then get mad that their vague message was misinterpreted.

    Imagine thinking ppl who colonized and oppressed a whole continent for centuries aren't savages or barbaric

    It’s funny people are s***ting on nick cannon for this.

    White society has been giving their opinion on how black peoples think for hundreds of years now but when a brotha does it he’s racist and dumb.

    Smh.
