How are you so bad at this?

I mean, I suppose completely staying out of an intracommunity dispute that has nothing to do with you is out of the question.

I’m still pretty sure recognition is a long form troll.  Their posts can get fairly extreme at times.  Literally zero shades of grey in their thought process.  

Like “black people” are a hive-mind. That’e the whole fucking issues, individuals on twitter thinking they are general consensus on things cause they yell a lot. Loudest voice wins.

It also sucks when a single person or a minority of persons proclaim to speak for the entire group.

It’s not at all clear to me that it’s “black people” setting the boundary here.  At best, it seems to be a subset of black people who are particularly assertive about supposed appropriation.  I’m not sure that we should be deferring to a small subset of the group we’re supposedly protecting here.

I don’t think he is racist. I do think he is a believer in latching onto the most hardline progressive viewpoint available at any given moment without applying a lot of examination to it. So, cultural appropriation = bad. Full stop. Anything that looks like appropriation definitely is. Anyone that does it is

I’m ‘Black”, with parents from NYC (Queens Jamaica area) & NJ. I’ve definitely been around kin and friends of multiple races who talked like her. The only person I could honestly say it was odd from was someone from India and that was because it was clearly how he learned to speak English as a second language rather

But it’s a fool’s errand. She could easily turn around and call out Black artists like RZA and Kendrick Lamar for appropriating Chinese culture. And she’d be right.

There actually were people telling her she should sound Asian the first time this happened. It was dumb.

The problem comes when defining appropriation. If someone grows up around people who talk that way, lives and breathes NYC hip hop since at least the age of 13, and doesn’t even learn Mandarin until they’re a full adult just to be able to converse with a grandparent, are they actually appropriating? Or are they just

Holy shit, you’re whiter than a Klansman’s hood.

If Stream Marshall 50 Cent was involved, he would have brought it back....or died tryin’...

I am the show that the streamer refused.

Keith David.

I think the show is considered CRT and that’s illegal now.

Yes. And it’s a good idea not to try, IMO.

*Granddad.

More than likely, John Witherspoon dying was the ultimate nail in the coffin. It’d be really, REALLY hard to replace him as Grandpa.

i might be in the majority on this, but i think the first 3 seasons were way better than the last one.
