What’s that got to do with what I’m talking about?

Yeah tell us more

Agreed. Again, I’m not saying crack is the only reason but I’m gonna say it caused at least 60% when you factor in the war on d**** that came out of it.

Of course white flight hurt us because it happened in an era when you could openly discriminate against blacks getting jobs. Detroit was declining after white flight for sure, but the dagger was the d*** trade and the violence it caused. And the police In Detroit were super corrupt up until 2010s. Of course I’m not saying the white man and the government is responsible for every crime committed, but I mean they’re responsible for the vast majority of it.

Gambino tier black with 4chan buddies calling any1 a cracker

Inb4 "lol u were on sxn80!" yeah calling out cacs and other weirdos who pretend to be Black on rap forums.

Anyone who does not have knowledge on colorism should definitely read this

e-ir.info/2020/04/11/critical-reflections-on-ethnicity-and-colourism-in-africa-and-the-diaspora

And watch the film Hotel Rwanda starring Don Cheadle & Sophie Okonedo

This has been going on since colonial settlers first arrived in africa & during the slave trade days.

U werent on sxn80 calling out other people. You were in your natural habitat around only weirdo whites because that's who you are most comfortable with. You literally cried about getting banned on Ktt like 5 times to them cause they were your only friends

Because most s*** "made for black people" has a lot of problems including but not limited to colorism. Thats why s*** like BET is so trash

Obviously colorism exists everywhere because the black woman is the most ostracized person on the planet but its a good start to stop watching BET tier s***

Black people were all working in factories that got broken up partially due to the fact they were successful without degrees. They had benefits and high paying jobs. That were taken from them. then replaced with jobs with longer commutes less time with family less benefits and often demanding degrees which were wildly expensive to them. Poverty or are real life squid game turned us against each other as well as clearly the crack epidemic.

The fact that some of you still think it is a "black" thing rather than all the concstructs that got us here is alarming. That isn't to take no accountability for our decisions but we are not in control of many factors

we saying you folks

Idk bro but this thread about to get mad weird in a second

BET had a white ceo for much of its run thats all thats got to be said there. Yet people complain about BET or start threads like this s***

Yeah you clearly got me confused with some other Black user on here or something, I'm sure we're all supposed to fit some mold of what Black people are supposed to be to you cacs who only have an outside looking perspective via hip-hop and TV.

"Gambino tier black"

went to go do some work I come back and its "black people are our own worst enemy. We caused all of our problems. we worst to black lives than the whites "

YOU ARE UNDER INVESTIGATION

I got perma'd for calling out a pedophile mod on KTT ya f***in weirdo lol

U a neocon

How do yall not have buddy blocked already lmao

I think we’re on the same page. It is the white mans fault. But I just saw some people acting like we were all soul train before crack which just wasn’t true. I agree with what you’re saying for sure.

I advise everyone itt to open a new tab and read this whole article/essay

e-ir.info/2020/04/11/critical-reflections-on-ethnicity-and-colourism-in-africa-and-the-diaspora

There is a lot to be learned and that’s the only way to make the future better

And honestly the cultural decay is where it did more damage longterm. I mean look how well dressed and articulate blacks would be in the media during the struggle for equality, now if you use a four syllable word some people will accuse you of talking white by your own peers.

I don’t even have a fake white voice cause I smoke so much. But in my university days I couldn’t tell you how many women of other races were shocked by the way I talk. People flock to me at work cause they’ve never met anyone like me before cause all that’s broadcasted for us is the hillbilly equivalents of the black community.

And I’m not trynna brag but i mention this cause that’s so crazy to me cause my boys are all black and are just as intelligent.

Getting off topic but I just wanted to vent cause I only post here when I’m at work and we slow lol

Tell me more about why I'm wrong

What are you talking about? You’re just straight up wrong man lol
