Black history month diaspora wars are crazy, and I’m tired of it. y’all really like attacking african americans via hyper visibility. plus a lot of folks love to run their mouths as if they possess the knowledge they don’t have, an talk on shit that’s not their lane and they can’t accept when they’re wrong.
A lot of y’all have a habit of making jokes of things that dont pertain to your cultural/historical/ancestral narrative and the shit is tiring, picking cotton, negro spirituals, certain specifics of trauma etc etc, does every aspect of the african american narrative seem like a mere joke? and the way y’all mock us for the things we eat, the way we talk, etc, is a weird ethnocentrism you wouldn’t tolerate if the shoe was on the other foot. (which is funny cause when we ki about it, and how awesome it is, then y’all wanna be apart of the fun) y’all have this gross habit of saying violently gross shit about things that pertain to the african american narrative and display the same fragility as whites when taking accountability, and do the white women shit of projecting it, and placing the onus on others (the person you offended) and dismissing them as sensitive, or pretending to be the victim and framing the person you angered as somehow “ridiculous” insulting their character as if you have the right to be mad or angered. doing mental gymnastics to absolve yourself and place the blame on them.
and its weird to mock us for the way we talk when y’all try to pretend we have the same personal/ancestral proximity to aave and certain cultural affectations, but folks love selective comprehension for convenience.
stop trying to use a mere american nationality and black racial identity to recenter yourself into the ethnic identity and narrative of others as if it can be easily decontextualized.
like you reaffirm exactly how you view and think how lightly of others, and dont respect them. the same superiority complex y’all claim to combat.
do not miss the point of this of “so I cant…” and if u dont respect us, maybe you shouldn’t.
i’m tired of this selective ass “we” and “us” when its convenient. ride with niggas and stay in your fucking lane, or dont fuck with us at all sheesh.
