  1. Today I found out that food I see as quintessentially American is actually German such as the pretzel and hamburger which upon retrospect should have been obvious. I apologize to the German delegation I wasn't aware of your game

  2. Oldheads an trueheads under this comment put the beats used at certain points of the video along with timestamps (extra points if you understand the connection between that beat and that section. The first real one is at around the 17 min mark.

  5. I keep seeing people mad at me about not letting my son dye his locks which confused me until I realized I cut my further explanation from this version. People who saw the Nebula version can verify that I explain that it isn't about his self expression it's about the police and how they view black boys. Just wanted to clarify that. All love yall.

  7. For those for whom this matters- The (original) thumbnail is not AI it was drawn by Skutch who has done thumbnails for a lot of creators The intro is not AI it was made by Overthrow Media All artists were paid in the making of this video lol

  8. Real quick, want to acknowledge that I misgendered Thought Slime. My apologies for that everyone and to Thought Slime if they see this. There are always parts of a vid you wish you could do over, I've got a few in this one. Thanks for the love otherwise yall!

  10. Hey everyone. So I made a pretty big mistake in the video identifying Arthur Ashe as openly gay. This seems to be untrue or at least in question. It is likely a result of rumors caused by him contracting HIV. I should have double checked that info and just wanted to clarify. Will probably cut that small blurb from the video eventually.

  13.  @ShermanWilliamsVideo  I have never been in. Situation where being called a male felt disrespectful or threatening though. The context changes the dynamic a lot.

  14. This why I don't do debates. Tate have said some dumb shit to me and I'd have started yelling. I don't have this level of focus and patience in the face of confident idiocy. Bravo

  18. I know that if different people are not feeling this one for different reasons, then I've probably accomplished exactly what I was going for with this one.
    3100
  19. Watched this early (join the patreon) what's crazy about this situation on tik tok is how effortlessly it silences dissension. We are literally invisible to the algorithm which makes our issues invisible so there's tons of tik tok users who have no clue that this is a problem because the algorithm shields them from it.

  22. Hey guys Adam and Eve doesn't want hyperlinks in the description so just type in the web address and use the code for access. Also monetization is looking good so feel free to skip the ads lol, although there is some other clown ish going with the title but we'll circle back to that.

  23. That would be flames
    2600
  24.  @INTELECT112  no I wouldn't lol. That's the difference between me and yall/them yall truly care what I think, I don't care about what they think. I could have made a fresh and fit video years ago for easy views. Instead I been doing me. Yall should follow suit.
    2200
  25.  @INTELECT112  it's gonna be so hard not to just clown yall when I get around to making this video... Pray patience and empathy on me.

  27. The medical capitalism paet is hard for people to engage with as we also adress ableism and misinfo on mental illness. You did a great job of getting into it.

  28. This is a great take on it. I definitely agree that he co-opted white mythology. It's fair to re-contextualize it completely outside of a white cultural standpoint.

  29. I live for the moments where my stupid high effort jokes get noticed 😭😭😭
    1300
  30. "Patriotic Mythology"<---- consider this stolen

  31. This is definitely relatable and indicative of the exact same problem of how audiences require some form of categorizarion that will only further marginalize creators in the margins.

  37. I needed this laugh today!
    1000
  38. 🤣 Keeping it real it was a a process. If you'd have met me 10 years ago it wouldn't have been so seamless. That's a profound But also sad realization I didn't even think of while recording.

  45. It's so profound the level of antiblackness in our media and just world culture that folks see and think that black Americans are just "naturally" as down bad as we are. But like you said, once you see what it's like to endure here you get it. It's a persistent drain that you deal with daily and it changes you.
    859
  46. I would imagine that was widespread
    805
  47. Oooh I'm gonna be here for that next one too!
    802
  48. A few addendum 1- Yes I am aware that 2 Y chromosomes is pretty rare. My bad it's hard catching all my mistakes lol. 2- I'll be revisiting my stance on Kevin Hart in the future. Thank you to those who pointed out the further depths of that issue. 3- Please check out the link for signing up for Nebula and Curiosity Stream in the description. 4.

  57. Hey everyone! This production was a bit... messy. I got it out in time but not unscathed. The angle is different, I kind of like it but you guys tell me if you prefer the old view. With the change in angel came some lighting and audio problems that I tried my best to correct in post. I think it's minimally distracting but for the eagle eyes out there (and I know you're out there) I know there's some kinks. This also sadly led to me having to cut doing a shout-out to all my new patrons in this video. I'm so sorry yall, I'll make it up to ya! That said I hope you all enjoy.
    572
  58. Damn I did not know that bit of lore
    563
  59.  @dartheria7914  which means he has a choice. He WANTED what happened to happen and sets things up so that they did. He had a choice he just chose not to use it
    557
  60. Lol ain't nobody scared of batman fans
    554
  61. TYYYYREEEEESE!!! That said, as usual, Youtube kills your comments. Please repost if you feel like yours was deleted.
    550
  62. It better cause I got like 4 more in the holster lol
    546
  63. damn i appreciate your vulnerability in sharing this. I'm humbled that I helped in any way. I wish you the best of luck with your guy.
    543
  64. You just made me realize I left of the craziness of Chadwick playing Thurgood.... aaaah I'm so mad I missed that! But yeah it's crazy how comfortable we are with black women's erasure and how Chadwick, God bless him, playing a very light man got maybe 30 seconds of consternation
    541
  65. Fanboying out right now! Love your shit fam! So happy you saw this!
    514
  66. Hadn't heard of it but if it's a shortened version of the same stuff it's good to have in the system!
    507
  67. I'm sorry I beg to differ. I know to many men being kept from their children by various means. I know men that had to do go fund me to get money for lawyers to get access to their children, men who hired private investigators to find their own children after mothers absconded with their kids. Is it as simple and overt as manosphere folks make it, no, but there are definitely biases and blinds pots that hinder men who can't afford lawyers and fight for access to their children.
    490
  68. Yep...🥲
    490
  69. I'd be down!
    479
  70. Cock shame sounds like an awesome all girl punk rock band
    476
  71. Lily's face when finding out about the bnwo...😂
    474
  72. Indeed. It's a sad and shocking declaration they made to support black men regardless of what those black men do to their own people.
    469
  73.  @dartheria7914  Eren CONTROLLED the future not just saw it. He had tons of time between kissing ol girls hand and the rumbling. He could have went to his much more strategic and intelligent friend to help him come up with a plan based on their knowledge of the future. He was instrumental in setting in motion an escalation of the war with their attacks on Paradis. He didn just know what would happen and how to keep his friends safe, he decided to ensure that said future would come to fruition. He says himself in 139 that he wanted it to happen that he was angry and low key it wasn't really about his friends at all, it was about his disappointment. I'm sorry the "he didn't have a choice" argument has too many holes.
    463
  74. Ima let that Maclom Jamal Warner crack slide cause I know irl I couldn't do nothing about it anyway 😂 And the way my ears perked up when you just mentioned Shottas, before you dropped that collab teaser. I got a full lineup for bout the next 2 months but put a pin in that one sir.
    455
  75.  @disc0duck  I doubt it. Her and Biden aren't stacking up wins. I'd be shocked if Biden wasn't a 1 term president. I'm just hoping for a Republican president that isn't insane at this point
    453
  76. HA! I wish I'd have made this observation. The difference is its OK when it's a white guy of course so it's more realistic.
    432
  77.  @UltimateDBZJAMES  but he did shape the future, he ensured that he would get the founding Titan by telling his dad to eat the royal family. He shaped the future
    419
  78. Taking notes
    395
  79. Yeah I felt a lot of these things. I wanted to tread lightly as a man because it's a fine line between being critical and being being a shitlord. But I definitely find myself wondering what the next "wave" of superheroines will and should look like. And I was aghast that this movie centered Diana's love for Steve Trevor, it reads like bad fanfiction made by a 15 year old boy. I was only luke warm on Captain Marvel but it wasn't this bad in terms of it's feminist themes. There seems to be an issue with "girl boss" power fantasies that kind of leave a lot to be desired cause they read as gender flipped power fantasies for white males. And in isolation nothing is wrong with that, but when it's the ONLY formula in play...then we have a problem.
    392
  80. If my dad was I'd do everything like Denzel Washington
    389
  81. This is a WORD bro can I sticky this to the top?
    378
  82. As I think k about it. Any form of sexual interaction between a prisoner and a prison gaurd is coerced and thus an assault. I didn't even know this much. Damn shame
    358
  83. Yeah i think theres a lot of similarity with Rowling. I plan to touch on it in part 2. But yest it's tough.
    350
  84. I remember seeing this comment 8 months ago and smiling about it thinking it would be nice but not taking it seriously. It just popped in my head that this existed... pretty cool
    342
  85. I have never said "Oh GOD" out loud this much In a while...
    340
  86. It's illegal here too. Unfortunately it happens. With boys specifically, the perpetrators can often go unpunished because patriarchal beliefs make boys feel like they are not being violated when they are. So many pedophiles don't get caught.
    326
  87. I got 7000 words on Tyler from like a year ago, but that's gotta be like a milestone video cause Tyler don't play with YouTube
    276
  88. I love Burna It was mostly jokes on how dominant he is on the afro beat sound in the states
    269
  89. ​ @dartheria7914 he has to follow the path though. He saw the path laid out fully and decided not to deviate from it. That is a choice.
    269
  90. It's about setting a standard. My thing with those guys is that they have lacked standards and integrity with who they associate with. All the useful things they've said (and I agree there are arguments around black males studies that need greater exposure) are muddied and hidden by the fact that they keep running around with the worst guys and platforming the worst guys, let alone themselves making ridiculous statements about black women. Not "meeting" with them is first and foremost a condemnation of that space. I made it to this level by not engaging with those dudes but speaking on the same topics in similar ways. I've had a ton of black manosphere fans who appreciate my work and follow me and then get mad when i won't validate that space. That's a sacrifice i'm willing to make. I wish i could reach the dudes deeper in the space, but it's not my responsibility, and what i'm doing is bigger than that space, those dudes don't represent black men at large, and I'm not going to compromise what I'm doing for that 10%. If the essay isn't good enough to convince people than i failed and a debate won't change that. I watched parts of their response video, and BGS ibmor, the shit was not compelling and anyone who is not in that cult can obviously see that. That's why so many people want me to debate cause what they realy want is for me to be co-opted by their space and validate it. Not happening. I've avoided them for a reason and will continue to do so, but as I said in the video, There's a video coming.
    269
  91. Every time it happens it's like it's the first time it happens.
    265
  92. Like I get it folks. We all enjoyed the story or we wouldn't be here, but you're bending over backwards to avoid the obvious. He could "control his powers and affect the past, predict the future, control all the titans, had great military minds at his disposal...but he definitely had no choice but to choose genocide"...NO lol please y'all stop. As H20taku pointed out, he explicitly states he did it out of anger and barley understands anything else beyond it. He had a choice.
    264
  93.  @queentwocents9714  this man brought up Cosby buying NBC...🤦🏿
    264
  94. If I go back in time I'm not gonna choose to be a YouTuber, with the benefit of foresight I'm going to choose to MAKE YouTube. You cant say someoje doesn't have a choice when they are walking directly on a path that they know the end too and they choose not to deviate from it. He literally had to use the power of the founding Titan to alter the decision of his father. That is a choice
    261
  95. Neither did i😭 That's what made this one so tough
    250
  96. I've been watching you as well! Thanks for the love
    247
  97.  @BmoreAkuma  Bobby Rush was a former panther. It's not so simple
    245
  98. 😮‍💨 I can't make them stop
    243
  99. A lot of recutting and blurring lol
    239
  100. Fuck if I know... more than anything I sometimes want to be left alone, left to my own devices. But I don't think that's responsible, for me at least. Cause on the flipside I know I'm equipped to help the situation... but it's exhausting and white Liberals don't seem to get that or are maybe starting to get that and "Inside" is like a response to that realization. 🤔 idk I hope people feel me on this one.
    238
  101. Are yall seeing mid roll ads on this?
    238
  102. For the record, don't go bullying Jlongbone, donate to Kugali comics!
    234
  103. Erin is a great character
    232
  104. Sorry about that. You're right that was a chauvinistic way to describe it.
    228
  105. Damn I don't even remember that. People still arguing about the Rock being black enough. Damn I feel like I need a part 2 now lol
    214
  106. Bro when I went back to review the footage I was like damn Storyteller drops jewels whenever he hits the mic, shit is timeless.
    209
  107. I'll check that out. Yeah showing my face was a scary ordeal. I legit called my manager, hr, poured over employee handbooks lol. If this YouTube thing don't work out I gotta feed these babies! Thanks for the love. Enjoy your break!
    208
  108. I got so many bars for Tyler Perry but I'm saving them for when I need them lol.
    204
  109. Yep
    204
  110. Oh God I forgot about Aunt Polly...
    203
  111. Finally someone got the purpose behind that
    201
  112. Im happy you approve! It's an honor to be able to celebrate your work fam
    194
  113.  @h20taku60  this!
    190
  114. Great points here
    184
  115. I found that while prepping this video and I was like yeaaa this gotta go in
    183
  116. Damn...
    179
  117. Yeah that issue is on the menu. It's such a frustrating cultural blindspot but not enough women understand it cause it's the rare situation where the tables are turned. I think a lot of women forget that we are ALL products of this toxic system and so we are so much more comfortable with accepting the status quo with black men as it pertains to issues of gender that aren't outwardly hostile to other people. Black men also aren't ready to acknowledge how this behavior hurts us and damages us long term. Acknowledging our victim hood is not what we're ready for.
    179
  118. And I would agree that Andre was a bit too much in his expression, but the irony is Andre's masculinity was never jn question while Kanye's was... there's something there. Another video for another time.
    177
  119. that twist in the last section... white viewers, yall still here? Yall doing ok?
    176
  120. I love when these little touches are noticed 🥲
    175
  121. I laughed so damn hard at several parts of this joint 😂
    174
  122. That's exactly the movie I thought about in thT section. And that quote "I could have done that if I had tried" is completely stolen as of now and being written into the script of my follow up video. You may or may not be credited...
    174
  123.  @geocyo8835  others got that one covered. I may touch on it but I'm not big Harry Potter fan nor trams. Contrapoints did a great vid on it.
    173
  124. Sheesh you know the video bout to blow when the spice in the comments is on Ghost Pepper and the video ain't even started yet🤣
    170
  125. That happened but that was pretty light. 3 stacks got the same pass prince got. There's some black men who's sex appeal is so heavy that no level of toxic masculinity is gonna affect them lol. There's also an element to Kanye like forcing himself into a group that didn't really want him vs Kast always being in their own space.
    165
  126. Thats an insightful observation
    164
  127. Andre had far less of a broad impact. He had been out since the mid 90s and the culture still looked like what it did by the time Kanye came. After kanye you see a complete paradigm shift throughout hip hop.
    162
  128. To me that final hero shot as he dances on the cop car in the middle of a riot that he caused... yeah idk if it's fair to say the movie doesn't lionize his violent spectacle. I was on the fence about the film until the end, but that shot to me drove home my perception.
    160
  129. Just so folks know, YouTube auto moderates a lot of comments. Sometimes it's for no apparent reason, sometimes it's cause you used certain terms or language that can be construed as harmful. I have not deleted any comments. If your comment is missing please rewrite it. And I can see it on my channel page, it's just not visible here. Edit-I now have deleted a few comments cause certain folks...
    160
  130. I been thinking of revisiting this topic especially with Pride here and this new awful Tariq Nasheed "documentary" coming out. I may tackle this again soon. Thanks for the words of confidence
    159
  131. And that's my thing. What's clear is that a lot of these dudes aren't really fighting for our people at all. They know what they're doing they just don't care. They sound like fascists is not by accident.
    159
  132. It's a call out to us all I think. And if we manage to make that change it's be a relief probably at the end of the day
    151
  133. Probably from one of my homeboys he knew I needed a little kick in the nuts to stay geounded and keep my focus good.
    150
  134.  @introprospector  (looks at view metrics...) Maybe in a week or two
    149
  135. Always happy to see you. Hope ur energy is A1 and that the video doesn't disappoint.
    148
  136. @MileHighFergo  you right but ijs folks don't get to make up a brand new racial category just to throw shade at light skinned girls
    146
  137. It's on the menu
    146
  138. Yeah I was speaking from a place of privilege there ad a person who doesn't have the same level of traumas attached to it. The thing I wish would have come across in the finL cut of this vid (I cut soooooo much) is that so much of this is up to taste and style and there's no right answer. Either wY your stuff is great and I'm happy to see you grow.
    145
  139. 90 min Mia Cole video about geo political issues dropping this Friday yall
    142
  140. Definitely
    141
  141. Lol I still don't like that one
    141
  142. You know damn well before Jasmine Alladin was definitely for the streets!
    139
  143. Legit don't watch anime anymore cause i am over the essence of the fandom. The rise of Isekai was the warning shot
    130
  144. The person you're with now is not garunteed to be the person your with 5, 10, 15 years from now. Pay attention to their core attributes and character traits. How do yall handle conflict, how do yall show love. Be open to change and evaluate every now and then if change means moving on. Don't have babies yet
    127
  145. 🤡
    125
  146. Your comments are dope thabk you for this insight
    124
  147.  @Scholar-debunker  I don't think you can speak for all mixed race men. Further, not all light skinned men are mixed race. I will refer to you and anyone else in whatever way they feel most comfortable. However, I don't think it's unreasonable to group mixed race men who are of African descent with black people. For one... that's pretty much how the world regards them anyway unless they truly pass for white. I've never met someone who's asked me to regard them as mixed race. Mixed race people of African descent overwhelmingly live among black people and identify as black, etc Race is a complex social construction with a lot of nuance. I say clearly in the video that I'm couching my analysis in the understanding that for plenty of people the simplicity of how we regard race may not be satisfactory, but it's the best we have. What I won't do is practice gate keeping and exclusion of people of African descent if they themselves identify as black such as The Rock, Barrack Obama, etc. I'll make sure to regard you as mixed race, but to use that distinction to categorize all light skinned men, especially when analyzing anything related to race in America is bad praxis at best and problematic at worst.
    123
  148. I thought the same thing. Putting that clip there is so meaningful to the overall message of the video. The grind to be heard is so heavy.
    122
  149. Nah I think you're on point. The only flaw is that this isn't new. They did this to us as soon as they heard our music. They've just finally figured out how to reproduce it in a way that doest require our buy in or cosign But one look at tiktok and you can see that our art is still widely consumed, just separated from us and repackaged as "popular" culture.
    120
  150. Might take a crack at this
    120
  151. Thanks for the love and keep coming back. I'm going on a tear come spring time!
    109
  152. That song was an anthem in 02 for the community crassness be damned
    106
  153. lol he's is definitely proto John Wick
    106
  154.  @papertape7911  like keep that energy for white supremacy and colorist black men, lashing out at light skinned black people as a whole is not the move.
    105
  155. No lie me and my college roommates would randomly yell that note whenever we heard his name no matter where we were. It was obnoxious but it was life.
    103
  156. TV personality more than business man. Bunch of failed businesses and scammed business partners. Made it to the top by telling people exactly what they wanted to hear. Power hunger and uncaring for what or who he hurts in the process. Ridiculous hair and smug look. Basically became the president... its pretty on the nose.
    103
  157. Black men need to start being intentional about our health and our headspace. We have enough proof that the old school way of being a man is self destructive. I pray for every man trying to get better. It's for the good of everyone that we make this happen.
    102
  158.  @kk180  I WATCHTED TIS A FEW WEEKS BACK! I think I like anime video essays more than i like anime these days. I feel her so much on this and her "I'm tired of 1000 year old loli's" video. I think I just aged out of anime sadly. I only have so much time for indulgent media and as soon as I see truck kun I start feeling like I need to take a nap.
    101
  159. Yo would you be open to an interview for a future video?
    101
  160. Yooo! Your How to Black video made me pick up a pen! I appreciate the compliment.
    100
  161. I missed that line... damn that makes it even worse. One of the reasons i was so bothered is that as a black man, I've been on the receiving end of more than a few overly aggressive white women. It's low key an epidemic but black men just keep their mouths shut about it. So It was just easier for me not to read into the racial ramifications of the scene as to not upset myself further. I also completely forgot in my rage that she was laying in bed in that position while I was writing. Like I said in the other comment, Im trying to tread lightly but... yeah that's awful. Thank you so much for the comments.
    98
  162.  @PsychicMedium4747  race is not a biological concept, it's a sociological construct. There's no such thing as "black biologically". Black only exists as a distinction of personhood due to historical and global white supremacy. The way you're describing it is exactly why I made the point in the video to speak explicitly to people's experiences and perceptions.
    98
  163.  @ForeignManinaForeignLand  there's a lot of there there. The irony is that the internalized hate is so deep rooted that I think black Americans believe that we are still somehow superior to other black folks of the diaspora because we are Americans and weren't born in "3rd world" countries. We can't imagine a world without the spectre of whiteness could be better plus our media painta the Caribbean and Africa as these backwoods nations devoid of modernity etc.
    96
  164. I refuse to heart this but sure did laugh 😔
    96
  165. I'm out here trying. Brothers need a lot of work. The sad truth is we only listen to us and only if they deem us respectable... it's a toxic complicated reality. My whole goal with this channel is to engage in these types of condos, be a bridge of sorts. Idk. The problem is that YouTube thinks I should be Kevin Samuels...😒
    92
  166. 😂😂😂😊
    89
  167. 🤣🤣🤣 I only watched the first season of girls so I may be all wrong on that. My main point is that it was the first show explicitly for and by millenials...but black.
    87
  168. Thank you 🙏🏿
    85
  169. Yeah that's another ugly element there SMH. I will say this though, don't let tick tock and Instagram fool you the data on black partnerships and marriages is very clear in terms of who black men marry. Now there's probably still some colorism issues not revealed in that data but as a whole black love is very much alive and well.
    85
  170.  @reb3578  thanks for helping me
    85
  171.  @ForeignManinaForeignLand  that's the thing man. WE gotta do the work and be brave on it. A LOT of dudes are so close they just need a push.
    84
  172.  @Aranock  yeah I think I just wasn't ready for the darkness lol. When i critiqued the editing I think it was maybe cause it was too effective at the mood you struck. I was stressed lol.
    84
  173. How! I been banging the table for brethren here for months now
    83
  174. I ain't on Lindsay level yet bit I'm trying
    83
  175. It's checkmate on the bots from here on out. I figured out a new trick to use going forward. You'll see😁
    82
  176.  @soulcage6228  I don't purport to represent black men I just put put my work and hope it resonates. My point in saying that is to express that this idea that I'm somehow betraying or ignoring black men by ignoring the black manosphere is nonsense. The black manosphere is a small niche community that most dudes grow out of if they're lucky.
    81
  177. Definitely I think they reached out before and I lost touch​ @RashidYCK 
    77
  178. Kind of like More-ee?
    77
  179. @papertape  I think I spoke to the erasure of dark skinned women here. Surely there's more to discuss and like I said I give grace to the core of where this take comes from but that doesn't make it any less wrong of a take. Eventually I'll make this a whole video and break it down more here.
    76
  180. I think there's truth to this. I didn't want to go there in the video cause I want folks to not feel attacked. But i think most men can tell when a dude is overcompensating cause they're trying to district from their own fears.
    75
  181. Thanks for the critique. I was definitely a bit out of my depth as a casual.kpop fan.
    74
  182. Great comment. Gave me some new nuggets to chew on
    74
  183. Damn I didn't know snow was so successful 🤮
    74
  184. There's a great book that helped shape my thoughts on this called views from the bottom about an east Asian gay porn performer. It spoke to a lot of this issue. You should consider checking it out if you're a reader.
    74
  185.  @pooperprime5459  DJ trackmatic made all the beats. I told him specifically to pull that El-p sample.
    73
  186. Don't hate me! #youtubedrama
    72
  187. that's a great point to explore. I don't think it explains the whole of it but it definitely connects to the irrational fear of being emasculated. Prison rape and being "punked" in jail is a long standing spectre in the minds of black men, especially in my age group and it speaks to soooo many other insecurities. I'll definitely find a way to investigate this more in the future. Thanks so much for this useful critique!
    72
  188.  @megafroggy  Bad editing tbh. I didn't know i cut it
    70
  189. Yeah, and some of the response i've been getting has been very disheartening. Not here, but in feeds where I've promoted this. I'm trying to balance a fine line between speaking truth to power and not just getting outright furious.
    69
  190. Captions are imminent
    69
  191. I have this same type of video planned for her, andre 3000, Obama, Dave Chapelle, etc so stay tuned
    68
  192.  @TENINCHLUVABOY  first off... Uncle Moe is this you? Secondly I ain't dealing with Vaush right now he's a lot.
    68
  193. This is kinda my point. The money was in the music and not the rest of the artform and the old guard were in on the take once the saw the dollar signs
    68
  194. This is an appreciated vote of confidence. This is exactly why I started making content!
    67
  195. Credit to Bellamy Rhea for helping me refine the language
    65
  196. Bro it's Cis (as in cis gendered aka standard "normal" gender presentation) Het (as in heterosexual) That said, gay people can't force you to use new terms and titles. That's never happened. And if you say something that someone is offended by... you still have the right to say it. You just don't have the right to avoid consequences. Yall be sounding like Trump supporters I swear.
    65
  197. Yeah "all your favs are trash" is something I learned to just hold as a truth after Bill Cosby... And yeah DC is a legit good universe to tell stories in, better than MArvel and Star wars if you ask me. But Warner bros clearly doesn't care.
    65
  198. No thank YOu sis!
    64
  199. Next video 1 hour tops I promise
    64
  200. Exactly how I felt...shit just left me feeling tired and angry. The arrogance of the writers who probably thought they were making something deep
    63
  201. Just like no sense of hesitation, but it's important that YOU are aware of this
    63
  202. Crazy I remember watching Perfume. It's wild that this is the basis for some of his beliefs. Shit sounds like Full Metal Alchemist.
    62
  203. You neo hoteps are wild with this Trump like "immigrant" stuff. Issa was born and raised in California... her dad is Senegalese. Yall are sad.
    62
  204.  @ForeignManinaForeignLand  shhhhhh
    62
  205. This is terrifying. I hope more information comes out with this.
    61
  206. You're the best!
    61
  207. Oh it's definitely on the list. I just gotta figure out the angle
    60
  208. I so value your perspective here! I agree that Jay-Z et al don't really speak to the realities of black people. What meant to get at is that while he doesn't actually speak for them, he definitely has their ear, and we need to deeply think on that. I feel like we(maybe more so the white left) are so dismissive of that reality as if it's just black folks not knowing any better. I don't know exactly what it is. But it's something. I've also got more to unpack, I initially was a lot more in depth and critical on my experiences and views of the left but cut it cause it got waaaaaay off topic. But in truth I'm more interested in your views and opinions. I'm a novice in this space. I'm very much learning and rethinking my leftist politics in a lot of ways. Thanks for the comment fam.
    60
  209. Happy birthday!
    59
  210. White fandom is wrought with internal stryfe. You always feel uncomfortable no matter what...
    58
  211. I'm looking for an excuse to say that to someone daily. Me: Play with something safe, don't play with me! My 6 year old:🙁
    58
  212. That was the goal. Lol as long as you're learning.
    57
  213. Yeah I was unaware but not surprised... hence the thesis of this video. I'm just happy your commentors never made it over here. Also make more videos dude.
    57
  214. Thank you
    56
  215.  @moondeliight  I like 808s a lot more now but the sentimentality of this particular song don't quite work for me still
    56
  216. I knew everything I needed to know about Sowell by the people that kept telling me about him
    54
  217. I talk about it in my edgelord video and I'll be speaking on it again soon
    52
  218. It's two parter...😁
    51
  219. He isnt a perfect expy, but i find it hard to imagine that they didnt have this in mind somewhat with all the other similarities
    51
  220. Thanks for the love. I did a video about the alt right pipeline stuff a few weeks back you should check out. And yeah my patience is weakening...
    50
  221. Hmmm...
    50
  222. @Gabe C  I don't think Owen's is gonna run. She's got a comfortable grift. DeSantis will probably run but I have a hard time seeing him make it too far but idk 🤷🏿‍♂️
    50
  223. This image...

  224.  @mattryan1999  I haven't deleted any comments
    48
  225. I'd love to read this. Please email it to me signifyre@gmail.com
    48
  226. Extremely similar
    48
  227.  @studentofgame8984  That's a super vague challenge. I'm pretty damn well read. Do you have some suggestions on what I should look into?
    48
  228. Real talk if you think the title is clickbait... did you get the video?
    48
  229. Thank you for your contribution!
    48
  230. Cartoons and Cereal from Kendrick Lamar. Can only be found on YouTube and SoundCloud
    45
  231. Just to prove this wasn't shade, I completely get this Eric Estrada reference
    44
  232. Mostly cause the algorithm murdered the white version of that content and hasn't noticed the black version yet. Hopefully they'll notice
    43
  233. The research generally shows that black men are unfairly targeted by the criminal justice system, and hyper excluded from education resources. Furthermore, there are less viable support systems for men in general. All of this combined with the toxic traits many men are taught and plenty of other systemic barriers and you find a lot of limitations to the opportunities of black men as a whole. That's the short version.
    41
  234. 😂😂😂
    40
  235. @croixfadas  ...where did I do this? What are you talking about?
    38
  236. I'm planning a rock/heavy metal video actually
    38
  237. Shout out to Babilla for the concept
    38
  238.  @Kuudere-Kun  It's not a perfect comparison, It's open to interpretation but I think it's hard to miss the subtext and the prevailing opinion from a lot of critics is that it was a purposeful comparison.
    38
  239. KEEP GOING! lol
    37
  240. No, and tbh I'm not 100% sure myself at this point. To me (and I cut this out this video nut maybe I'll return to it) it starts with direct engagement with the people most in need. That's what made the Panthers so special. People only see the guns and the black berets. But they were a community service group first. People can't resist if they're hungry
    37
  241. I severely over estimated YouTubes interest in Lebron...
    37
  242. yeah I knew it was a thing, but even I didn't realize how deep rooted it was until I started researching for this video. It's a weird manifestation of patriarchy in that we just don't care what happens to men's bodies.
    36
  243. 😭😭😭
    36
  244. Yeah I feel you here. I didnt want to be too demonstrative speaking as a man, but I'm looking forward to some black fem tubers to really go in piece by piece on how bad a lot of this was. The biggest challenge for this video was trying NOT to come off wrong and have people disregard my point.
    35
  245. The story telling videos are my favorite videos to make
    35
  246. I had a spinal tap too lol. I wasn't playing with this stuff
    35
  247. I left so much to discuss... i know
    34
  248.  @kenshix7902  I have an idea for an anime related video in the future, I'll touch on this. I'm scared to talk about anime lol anime fans are the worst of the internet
    34
  249. Yeah I see that and I know that Kennedy ran from the left of him. Still idk maybe Roosevelt is more socialist. The point was to illustrate that anything close to being left was dead on arrival in the U.S.
    34
  250. But what if we could do better... (Part 2)
    33
  251. Hmmmmm...
    33
  252. I have never heard of a heterosexual person legitimately being accused of being homophobic just for existing. The real story is always waaaaay different so I gotta call cap on that.
    33
  253. My biggest thing for black folks, especially for black men is that we've normalized "dragging" people and telling folks off. Now for fun and jokes I get it. But we have to employ different energy if we are really trying to address problems, traumas, etc. It's definitely a product of white supremacy that we haven't disentangle from yet.
    32
  254. Thanks so much! Feel free to share your critiques! THEY HELP IN NUMEROUS WAYS!
    32
  255.  @blacktigre  I discuss the issues all the time.
    32
  256.  @ChaosKnuxxx  I just made a 2 hour video... after a 90 minute video. They'll make a response. Yall be the judges.
    32
  257. I'm full lol. I did my thesis on a lot of manosphere related stuff. I'm taking a break from them for now but I'm sure I'll be back.
    32
  258.  @musingwomanist  I took it more as the lack of black men speaking on the topic. It's important that cis-het black men get more engaged in these issues. Also one thing to consider is how algorythims work. Cause ima black man, If it wasn't for a subscriber pointing her out id' never have found khadija who sent me to intelexual and so on.
    31
  259. This is not the video you're looking for but you might appreciate this one https://youtu.be/0YMdEWE9o6I
    31
  260. There definitely needs to be more critical assessment of black folks employing other cultures for creative purposes. And it does happen on occasion. I think the difference is that we at least know that when Nikki Minaj or Migos pull in Asian influences we clock them as Asian influences, whereas the challenge for black art is that it just becomes "cool" or "urban" art and seldom gets credited to being a black artwork. Aside from that, my only concern is to give credit and be aware as opposed to not letting folks use certain influences
    31
  261.  @beverybrown2231  White supremacists, capitalist patriarchy. Explain to me what a woman does that has power over you aside from sex? What social systems are predominantly ran by women? What gov institutions? What economic systems?
    30
  262. Always love to see other scholars in the field appreciate my work. Thank you! We need to start building community. Idk how yet but we gonna all create a movement
    30
  263. Don't feel bad. I just changed the thumbnail and YouTube is finally giving me some algorithm love. 75% of the views are from the last week🤣
    30
  264. Yeah murphy is such a unique story cause he covers the whole spectrum of what is happening with black men right now. I hope someone makes a biopic of him one day cause he's made so many mistakes and shows growth from them compared to so many others in the spotlight.
    29
  265.  @thechocolatedelegate9830  what makes you consider that we're living in a matriarchy in black communities? What roles of power have black women held outside of single parenthood? Also I didn't delete your other comment btw. YouTube auto moderates.
    29
  266. @TheSwordfish009  why you leaving so many comments fam you got a podcast to promote or something?
    29
  267. 1.Thank you 2. Alway looking for criticism 3. You are very welcome.
    29
  268. I'll probably end up talking to Dr. Umar one of these days. But calling cap is just the truth. What he said in those moments were false.
    29
  269. 2 kids and a cat
    29
  270. Thanks a ton. Please check out the catalog. My Mike Tyson video is probably my best joint overall.
    29
  271. W take tbh. My heart skipped for a moment at the thumbnail, Ima break this down further one day but, W take. I hope the core of your audience gets the key points here.
    29
  272.  @agentbuddy5914  but that's not matriarchal on a societal scale. Those households have women in charge but they still operate on a patriarchal ideology.
    28
  273. Or... she could have not assaulted him and just talked to him. Imagine that
    28
  274. Normal men don't know what this means
    27
  275. Damn I forgot about that part that would have been great to include
    27
  276. That's whT I tried to land on in the end
    27
  277. ... cause this video is private. How did you get here?🤔
    26
  278. Wow this was super informative... Ill add something to the description to reflect this. Thanks for taking the time to educate me here.
    26
  279. Whaaaaat? If anything his recent special proves me even more right lol. He didn't get cancelled, he's still making lazy trans jokes, he admitted to punching down, he admitted to being lazy... What did I miss?
    26
  280.  @aaa.a123  I mean I gave you an answer already earlier that you didn't understand or didn't read... I'm sorry you felt slighted by the video. I don't think it is hypocritical or unfair. I don't see what you see. Don't want to invalidate your feelings but... I don't know what else to offer you.
    26
  281. Which right did the lgbtq petition for that they got immediately?
    25
  282. If I felt like that I wouldn't be here. I didn't start out like this lol
    25
  283. I held back on Drake lol cause I didn't want to be distracting. I can't be hating on Drake while trying to talk about how light skinned men get a bad deal.
    25
  284. Most definitely, I assume you're referring to the treatment of the Irish. And yes that's definitely true.. You have any good videos on it? I wouldn't mind learning more about this.
    25
  285. I'm married with kids lol. Touch grass
    25
  286. And you commented here too! Do you not realize the irony? You ain't never gonna see me comment on a video I didn't like or didn't actually watch. But again...THANKS! Fam the irony is yall are the biggest reason for the jump in numbers. With out yall there'd be no 11k views and rising. I'm more than happy if yall go somewhere but who am I to reject God's will.
    25
  287. European racism is flavored differently. There's definitely still fetishism going on from my perspective but it's like chips vs French fries
    24
  288. Yeah considering the opaqueness of the gimmick and the absolute absence of characterization, I was super disappointed. But I've watched a few videos of people breaking it down, and I know what it's like to fall in love with a Sci fi concept... this one just didn't hook me. I completely get his fans who love his denseness seeing this as a perfection of his style. It's his least accessible film but definitely his most ambitious conceptually.
    24
  289.  @itsaUSBline  you guys aren't hearing me. I'm not blaming the movie outright. I'm pointing out that certain populations will take a specific message away from the film regardless of whT the film intended. The whole point of this essay is considering WHY that happens. I think a lot of edgelord fans (of which I am one as I state in the video, though I didn't like Joker) are a bit triggered at my criticism of the films. But But back and watch again.
    24
  290. You dont know how much i needed this comment!
    24
  291. Ooooh I caught that Eddie Murphy shade...😅
    24
  292. Thank you for actually watching my stuff. Themis folks halfway dont eff with black men so folks don't be actually watching or listening they just swear I'm Kevin Samuels with locs😂
    24
  293. Go watch the dmx video next to see what old XXL freshman was like.
    23
  294. I keep seeing this argument and to me it reminds me of when rappers say "we not talking about women we talking about (insert pejorative here for working class black women). It doesn't matter that said men weren't "good men" by some metric, the sentiment still stands out and still was stigmatizing.
    23
  295. I let a gen z edit they missed some details 😂
    23
  296.  @rikrob5172  that's soke great deep lore there I should get to that
    23
  297. ...this was disappointing
    23
  298. Thank you, i knew there had to be something to call this cause. I can't remember when someone pointed out this habit of "acting" as being stigmatized and unrealistic.
    23
  299. Also even if that were true (it's not) how is that their fault and not the fault of the dominant society and white supremacy? Why would we take issue with them like they made the decision to sideline our issues?
    22
  300.  @agentbuddy5914  I understand your logic but it doesn't really do the best job of explaining and describing how power works in our society and who has it. Matriarchy/patriarchy is about who holds power, but also what ideology and belief systems that power adheres to. To be honest I don’t’ thing Matriarchy as we are using it here (Women in charge) really has a apples to apples comparison to Patriarchy as it’s used in social sciences (A social system that privileges men through the marginalization and oppression of non-men). A woman can easily be in charge yet still privilege men and masculinity. In fact it happens all the time, especially in black families. Many black families are ran by women. But the vast majority of those women still greatly reproduce patriarchy in their households. In these black woman ran families girls are still often not give the same privileges and freedoms as boys, their sexuality is still more greatly policed. Boys are still disallowed emotional range of expression, and so on. Rigid gender roles is a product of patriarchy more than anything. More importantly, this even happens in other social systems. Our gov is patriarchal not just because its’ mostly ran by heterosexual men, but also because the principles, laws, and policies it enacts seek to serve a status quo that privileges men and men’s interests.
    22
  301. Thanks so much for the love man! Yeah i feel the same way. I do wonder what they have in store. Issa can often subvert expectations, and there's probably a reason they kept Nathan around at the end of last season. We'll see what she cooks up.
    22
  302. Ok... now that I've composed myself. Im a huge fan. I probably started "watching" YouTube with the crash course series and even used it as a teacher. This is surreal. Please if you thought this was good please share. It would mean a ton!
    22
  303. it just hit me that you were talking about a different reference! I was referring to the quote from Samuel Jackson i mentioned in my Bo burnham video.
    22
  304. I never thought about the fact that "family planning" is legit a plan for gay people. That really can change the dynamics of that
    22
  305. How many times has Sam Jackson been THE leading star in a movie vs a side character? Meanwhile Denzel is almost always the marquee star of his films. But that's matter of perspective maybe That's how I defined it.
    22
  306.  @peepeeman4740  You mean the same Thanos that was explicitly seen as a villian the entire movie, that killed 2 main characters and severely beT others... YET still had edgelords saying he was right in the aftermath of the movie? I don't see how this disproves my point.
    21
  307. Cause they don't want community they want "worship"
    21
  308. I need to know that some people get my cryptic jokes. Thank you so much
    21
  309. This was THEE most furious I've ever been on a video lol. I legit wrote the whole thing in like 20 min as soon as the movie went off.
    21
  310. Why does it bother you
    21
  311. These are insightful observations
    21
  312. I talk briefly about male swxual assault in a few vids. I'm planning to eventually tackle the issue of black boys and sexual assault in the future.
    20
  313. Sometimes i get so far up my own ass with my vocabulary I mix up my terms. What's the real difference there?
    20
  314. You're pretty much saying exactly what i said.
    20
  315.  @kavijackson868  who is "they", how does them "rewarding" people who value their sexuality equal being a protected class. I need a legal or historical example cause this makes no sense.
    20
  316. Don't get blocked
    20
  317. You're full of these 🥜
    20
  318. You are very appreciated. I'll send you a copy of the full interviews of the patreon next week
    19
  319. The hoteps is on my head in these comments but it's all good. We all gon make it. Thanks for the love, please like share and all that. We need to have this convo
    19
  320. Seems like your making dumb comments on my video
    19
  321. Claim deez 🥜
    19
  322. Oh Dave has an episode coming where we delve into his complexities
    19
  323.  @therealmrniger  no bro... this IS irony. You are criticizing me for clout chasing Tariq, when really all I wanted to do was provide as summary/counter narrative to his ridiculous documentary. That's what like 50% of YouTube is "reactions". I've done the same thing on my channel from day 1. But because I clearly struck such a nerve with Tariq's fan base YALL have pushed this video far beyond my expectations. So it's not me clout chasing, it's yall being overly sensitive to criticism and unable to deal with people disagreeing with you. So for you in particular, the thing you complain about is literally your own fault, BUT YOU MAD AT ME! I legit don't care about those of yall that refuse to listen. I said my piece to yall in the first 5 min. I don't care about Tariq and how he hustles yall for views and money. I'm just sharing my thoughts like I been doing for a year. It just so happens that the stars aligned and bunch of angry dudes decided to signal boos my shit. I appreciate the support fam.
    19
  324. I have this idea to do like an "unsung" type of series on guys like Keenan Ivory Wayans, Robert Townsend, etc. Let me look this up.
    18
  325. Y'all always come with this narrative but seldom actually explain how what I said was incorrect. This is the epitome of facts don't care about your feelings. Also my viewers are predominantly black anyway so this is also 🧢
    18
  326. Ahhhh I missed an opportunity here
    18
  327. Everything here is my opinion formed by experience, research, and academic training. Nothing I say is "truth" with a capital T
    18
  328.  Ainapa Murolo  had to think of the whole audience lol
    18
  329. So you have no life but want to help me make money. Thank you 😊
    18
  330. "Research"🤣 Yeah somehow images of boys tweaking us "proof" to support the wider myth of black men being effiminized. Somehow it's just impossible for gay black men to exist on their own.
    18
  331. Comments are acting funny yall... (as in some are just disappearing for no reason) sorry I'll see if I can figure it out. In the meantime PLEASE KEEP COMMENTING lol. I love and appreciate all of you and the discussions we have.
    18
  332. CONTEXT!!!
    18
  333. I think that's kinda tied to the " culture begets media" conversation
    18
  334.  @ezachleewright2309  2 weeks is my typical schedule
    17
  335. I definitely think the online dating world is toxic for avg men to participate in. I honestly have no insight on that and the research I saw didn't offer much other than exactly what everyone says. Although as Noah indicated it's sometimes about other features. That said, I Def stand by the idea of pursuing self development as a way to change these feelings and outcomes.
    17
  336. So I shouldn't call out that he faked his persona because he died? We should just allow a lie to live on because the liar is no longer with us?
    17
  337. Wooooow... they trying me
    17
  338. How does white supremecy use homosexuality against the black community? Maybe you can explain it better than the film did for me.
    17
  339.  @kavijackson868  almost everything you just said does not support your original argument. None of what you state equates to being a protected class. More significantly most of what you said is not applicable to black gay people.
    17
  340. You must not have watched me in a while
    17
  341. It's so crazy that Birds of prey had all of the same elements except made them all correctly and nobody gave it a chance.
    17
  342. Only if you don't know the full history of Jordan Peterson
    17
  343. Not really avg just more challenging and complex. Their story was about more than getting the girl or getting money etc. Their presentation of masculinity wasn't overly typical, nor their morality. Just more to see and be cause they have less requirements... idk I might revisit this
    17
  344. I think it's important to point out that the nations purpose for wanting seperation is far differnt than the Alt rights. Furthermore I wouldn't really call them a political group the same way I wouldn't call the alt right one. At least not in the same vein of what Cube was attempting here.
    17
  345. More likely racism would just look different. Racism isn't still here by accident. It's intentionally being maintained at the behest of capitalism.
    17
  346. Right, I feel what Cube was trying, but it's like he legit didn't do the real leg work or consider how this would manifest itself once it got out there. There's a real need for what he did, he just shouldnt have been the one to do it, and not right now.
    17
  347. I appreciate that
    17
  348. Yall dudes keep clicking...🤷🏿‍♂️
    17
  349.  Vhango The Painter  nope read my further comments.
    17
  350. Be bell hooks We Real Cool is all about black masculinity. Black sexual Politics, pedagogy of the oppressed, Masculinities by R.W Connell, Anything Fanon and Dubois...
    17
  351. It's all love! i;m happy you made it thorugh the whole vid, and yeah i didn't want to leave that out. I've worked with kids to know they're not on drugs cause it's cool they do drugs to self medicate from the trauma
    16
  352. Nah... that wouldn't be a fruitful conversation. I'm not for entertainment debates for spectacle. He'd never admit to recognize what I'm saying here, it's what he built his brand on
    16
  353. @Penny Wise  this video has over 200k views and thousands of likes... who did I push away but people who are too rigid in their beliefs to advocate for full liberation of all black folks?
    16
  354. Janelle is good she's gonna explode soon just watch. But yeah this movie was doomed even if it wasn't offensively dumb
    16
  355. Imagine calling trans people who make up 3% of the population bullies. Meanwhile Dave has lost nothing. This has aged spectacularly
    16
  356. There's a million depictions of heterosexual black men on TV with normal jobs and better. Off the top of my head This is us Black lighting Queen Sugar Insecure Blackish Lovecraft Country I could do movies too. I feel like yall only watch shows with gay men cause I've NEVER understood this argument cause it's probably false just by turning on a tv.
    16
  357. Lol no this hasn't aged poorly st all
    16
  358. There's tons of white gay characters on TV and in cartoons.
    16
  359. 🤫
    16
  360. I say in the video that I'm married with kids You clearly didn't watch the video before commenting which shows how brain broken you are. You just so sucked into this ideology you came to argue just cause you're addicted to this type of negative engagement. Good luck out there fam
    16
  361. Yeah and most dudes that talk like you scare the h0es and watch too much porn
    16
  362. I gotta be direct. It's not a liberal vs conservative thing. I'm not a liberal. I'm a leftist. I'm a socialist. Conservatives are actively harming black people. Roe V Wade is actively trying to kill black women. The anti trans stuff is actively trying to kill black trans kids. They are actively trying to kill the environment. This isn't a debate to me. If you in any way are "ok" with those principles just cause you believe in traditional marriage or something I can't rock with you. You don't have the people's best interest in mind.
    15
  363. I can't answer that with confidence. My favorite piece of media with a feminist theme is the Anime Madoka Magica. But that's a question for a "real" feminist scholar.
    15
  364. When you get a chance check out my colorism video, especially the later half where I dive back into this
    15
  365. I started this video when he was still alive believe it or not, hence the portion that kept repeating "c00n sellout" etc. He literally died in the middle of me writing it Secondly no, he constantly proclaimed himself to be a high value man, bragfed about dating supermodels, traveling the world, jet setting, working with corporate clients and all kinds of stuff that wasn't true. I accumulated evidence to show how all of this was false. I do not in any way regret Exposing his grift and rejecting the idea that he just wanted to help. He found a hustle and it worked, that's it. I didn't lie, I didn't exaggerate, I showed evidence and receipts and I left the worst stuff I heard out. If that bothers you than what you really are bothered by is the truth.
    15
  366. (Hovers finger over "hide user from channel button) Commenting won't help lol good luck out here.
    15
  367. I was trying to insinuate that this was a false argument to make. The whole concept that losing control is only for "weak men" is meant to be seen as false. I maybe didn't get that accross effectively but that's what I meant.
    15
  368. Hopefully this is the one that unlocks it's full potential
    15
  369. Would this be as popular of a meme if the men where white?
    15
  370. That's the ultimate compliment. I know I love when I find a new creator to binge. Also reeeeeal good for the algorithm for you to spend time with me like that. Thanks for the love. New joint next week God willing.
    15
  371.  @thelegendaryblacksamurai796  Aside from Aqua lad, what other examples can you think of where a black character was straight and then in cannon was made to be gay? Also anime is it's own veeeery unique thing and shouldn't be looked at as any type of representation of black American or American views and culture, even when it's Japanese anime made for western audiences.
    15
  372. Go back and reqarch that section, that's the exact conclusion I come to.
    15
  373. You sound like you're really popular with women...
    15
  374. And yeah this joint could have been 2 hours long if I had went allll the way round the world with it.
    15
  375. Reaction content.. ?
    15
  376. Every time Zatsman edits I'm like "I need only 25% of your power level" lol
    15
  377. DAMNIT!!! LOL Good looking out.
    15
  378. Thank you for that powerful endorsement. Please do what you can to make it happen. Share it with your peers In your social.media circles etc. I want this message to spread for more than just building the channel.
    15
  379. Thanks so much. This is exactly why I wanted to start making videos, I felt like there weren't enough of our voices in the game!
    15
  380. I needed to know that jokes landed for someone!!!! Thank you!
    15
  381.  @GoSuMonSteR  I wasn't aware of the "bullet bag" stuff until recently, but idk if that counts as left tube. I also have seen a decent amount of cis-het black male creators popping up between myself, The Storyteller, Foreign man in a Foreign Land, etc. It's not dead for us yet, but it is quiet. And ashy dudes gonna get these jokes sometimes, it is what it is. I was nice as I could be on this and the Buckbreaking video and you see how that went.
    14
  382.  @GoSuMonSteR   @GoSu MonSteR  I am definitely not gonna waste my time in debates. I'm almost 40. I know from experience that debating is mostly a D measuring contest. It's entertainment I guess but I've done enough debating to know that debates are performance art not deradicalization. And I'm not really looking to pull people out of the manosphere as a core goal. I want to present a counter narrative but I'm not gonna hold myself accountable to thT level. I try to not engage in overt misandry cause I do agree that the way black men are.talked about on social media is toxic, even beyond "divestment" spaces. But dudes gonna catch these jokes when appropriate. Hit dogs will holler. I've never been offended by ashy jokes and I grew up as a hotep.
    14
  383. I saw that doing research for this. I think that play was a tad bit unfair, but it still had my main criticism. For some reason I just cant bring myself to hate Miranda, he seems to good natured to get on my bad list. IDK that might just be my flaw lol.
    14
  384. Oooooh this sounds right up my alley
    14
  385. Ashamed of these 🥜
    14
  386. Men in Blue performed by Everlast on Prince Paul's Prince amongst thieves
    14
  387.  @princep  Wait he educated black people"? when Where? How? What did we learn? The fact that he thought he could educate black people on politics when he admitted himself that he doesn't follow politics and hadn't voted in years speaks to exactly my problem. Dudes think they can educate people just cause they speak loud and feel confident in their words... that's not how this works. Cube got played as I said earlier. He got took for a sucker. That's the only thing black folks should have learned from this moment. But because he "at least did something" folks want to make it seem like he did something SIGNIFICANT when really non celebrities have been doing work forever.
    14
  388.  @ProjektBurn  yeah I think a lot of folks couldn't resist that same urge🤣🤣🤣
    14
  389. Thanks so much! Please look through the old stuff too. Im most proud of my Mike Tyson video.
    14
  390.  @proctologistbarbie  Im doing soul regardless there's a tone to say mostly good, some bad but to me the bad is very nitpicky but I love picking my nits.
    14
  391. It's a huge compliment to say you enjoyed the video without being familiar with the subject. Thank you!
    14
  392. I definitely didn't call myself apolitical... Folks really will hear the thing they want to hear the most.
    14
  393. Truly original and clever jokes from a visionary comedy genius
    14
  394. 🤯
    14
  395. I doubt it but you can check out homesteam history's videos on it. https://youtu.be/2HGDsgJrBCk https://youtu.be/5gOiKl8WsyQ
    14
  396. Im not sure what you mean
    14
  397. Yes, exactly for this very type of content. Blame yourself
    14
  398. It wasn't easy
    14
  399. Chris Brown is just lucky he did his dirt 10 years ago.
    14
  400. It was a labor of love I hope it meets expectations
    14
  401. We break "natural order" all the time tho... And even if this was true, that's no reason to oppress gay people.
    13
  402. Never in a million years
    13
  403. aw man... you made it that far! Thank you! Also, there's the difference between me and yall. I realize I'm wrong, get corrected, and recognize where I need to change. Yall... yall equate accountability to being sexually assaulted. That shit is as sad as it is profound.
    13
  404. My heart hurts for Nikki fans. I was teaching high school when she blew up and I remember the effect she had on so many girls and i know first hand how much it sucks to go through that
    13
  405. Ima say this one mo Gan and then I'm out this thread lol. It's not about what the movie intended, it's about what the edgelords will take away. You can interpret whatever you want. But just like there are TONS of folks who don't see D. Fens as a bad guy, there are people who see the Joker in all his permutations as an Antihero and idolize his nihilistic world view. The movie is not responsible for this as I said early in the video. But in the end that is what will happen. The video is about why edgelords like certain movies now why certain movies turn guys into edgelords. Das it for me. Keep commenting though I appreciate the engagement✌🏿
    13
  406. This was my goal 😆
    13
  407. Wait til you see my Chapelle video 😶
    13
  408. Yeah but that's just how it works. People always want drama. I'll give that out when I can. And more and more will show up for the more meaningful stuff
    13
  409.  @purplelove3666  You're making a lot of biological claims on a sociological concept. Height is a matter of measurement. A foot is a mathematical concept and the laws of math dictate that I should not call a 3 ft tall person 6 ft tall cause that can be empircally prevent to be false. Race is sociological. Social concepts are a matter of cultural, regional and historical ideology vs empirical fact. Becuase of this you can't just categorically dictate who is an who isn't black based solely off of parentage. You have to leave room for interpretation. If we go by your argument here then none of us are really black cause almost all of us have white ancestors which means that somewhere down the line we had a bi racial ancestor. At what point does a person become "fully black". You see how murky a concept this is?
    13
  410.  @upstageproductions  impossible white men can be any race or gender
    13
  411. Yeah I agree. In a way it's like Baby Boy showed more love to that world and the streets by showing how flawed they were instead of making them less realistic and less flawed.
    13
  412. Genocide fam, global genocide... The racism of the world is not a reason for global genocide. Further Eren says himself he doesn't know why he did it. He was not really thinking about racism he was thinking about revenge
    13
  413. @pauliedaartist7  Skutch
    13
  414. That's how I interpreted it too.
    13
  415. Yeah I love Janelle Monae so even though I could tell from the marketing that It was going to be bad based on how the studio treated it, I was still holding out hope. I never thought it'd be this bad.
    13
  416. I don't think Tariq is projecting. I think he's just a grifter. He knows what certain folks want. This is his hustle sadly.
    13
  417. You know, now I kinda want to go back to take a second look at the first film to see if we should have seen this coming lol.
    13
  418. Idk if it's spreading or just getting louder, it's hard to say. I feel covid amplified it recently
    13
  419. I had to make a tough decision here in terms of deep dives into certain things around black coupling, and in the end i wanted a feel good valentines day video as opposed to a breakdown of the explicit features of black relationship dysfunction. Plus other creators like Intelexual Media have touched on some of those parts.
    13
  420. How is this not open discourse? Isn't your presence here proof that this isn't an echo chamber? You got 20k to donate to your favorite debate figure so I can show up to their stream?
    13
  421. Few weeks
    13
  422. Name an actual campaign statement she made regarding gender issues.
    13
  423. Yeah I dropped this like two weeks before montero... This won't just be a follow up, this will be an ongoing check in.
    12
  424. Still uploading idk why it's taking so long
    12
  425.  @St1kyFinguz  I mean... you ain't lying there lol. Coming out of academia you're trained to spend 30% of your time talking explaining how you might actually be wrong about everything else you might say. It's a habit I'm trying to break
    12
  426. He's gay
    12
  427. Thanks man. It hurts that this video is so slept on. This is a message i really wanted to share cause i feel like my generation is really failing on this front. Keep your eye out for me going forward for more stuff
    12
  428. Firstly I appreciate your criticism. I definitely could have talked more about the Joker's intended messages about poverty and mental illness (I did in fact but it was cut for time) but at the end of the day those were not the core themes that the "edgelord audience" would be focusing on. My argument is that they would be focusing on the power fantasy that is the Joker. Same goes for Robert Duval in Falling down. The edgelords don't remember his arch, they mostly only remember how "right" D Fens was in the end. I'm speaking to a specific worldview and how that worldview interprets the movies, not to the actual movies themselves. I attempted to couch that in the beginning. My empathy was NOT for that world view but for the conditions that create it, aka growing up under white supremacists patriarchy and not knowing how to disengage from it. I don't quite follow your last paragraph here. If you're saying that using an american racial lens is too simple to engage with thenissue of alt right/red pill type belief systems... Idk how to respond to that. White supremacy is a foundational pillar of American culture and is always a core factor in examining American social issues. We may just have to agree to disagree there.
    12
  429. I have a whole section on that later in the video actually... I still got love for "hoteps" just wish a lot of yall would chill out.
    12
  430. The algorithm doesn't know what to do with me... they only like Kevin Samuels when it comes to black men... ima keep at it tho
    12
  431. And commenting... thanks I guess
    12
  432. Keep pushing. You're 20, those types of things are bound to happen. Everyone around you is learning and making mistakes. I garuntee you that if you continue to focus on your own development you will not miss your current gf for long.

  433. #thewhitepeopledemsyllabus...😮‍💨

  434. Community investment in education, after-school programs, Healthcare and jobs programs, all things that can be paid for easier with this 90 million dollars.
    12
  435. Watch the video.
    12
  436. This is the most beta comment I've seen all day
    12
  437. Damn I should put that on the thumbnail 🤣
    12
  438. Black people do not say the hard R
    12
  439. You didn't watch the video cause I clearly addressed this.
    12
  440. It's the combination of supporting hierarchies AND the rejection of systemic interrogations of how those hierarchies produce inequality that makes his position insidious and racist. "Productive people" being predominantly white men by statically imbalanced ratios is either natural or systemic. He can avoid the question all he wants, but it's not an unfair extrapolation to firgure out where he stands on that based on his continued rhetoric and the company he keeps. I made that very clear in the video. A free market dedicated to white supremacy is definitely ok with letting inequality thrive and I shouldn't have to explain that we most definitely DONT have a free market anywhere in the western world.
    12
  441. He's S tier for a reason lol. Nothing wrong with Hank
    11
  442. Jamaica is known to be very homophobic though. Its much more likely that they are hiding. There are more gay people here cause it's safer to be gay and folks can live their truth
    11
  443. No, I just believe in fighting for black folks regardless of their sexual orientation.
    11
  444. I probably should get to a point where I don't act like a fan whenever someone I admire comments on my shit... But I'm a huge fan and thank you for commenting!!!! Your video on Rue is probably one of the best videos I've seen all year. Thank you!
    11
  445. Or you can flip the table cause you know the game is rigged.
    11
  446. Perfect description
    11
  447. @Joe  sounds like you got it but you just didn't like it which is fine. My goal was never to critically engage with the issue or debunk it. It was an exploration of the issue and the experiences of people actually in it. Within their words you should have seen elements of matriarchy, hypergamy, working class, bourgeoisie, egalitarianism, and of course including non cishet people all working at an individual level, all including an element of blackness. Deglamorizing black love was definitely my intended goal. Showing why it's still worth it was also my intended goal. I wanted to make a feel good video that made people want to explore not a video for people to point to as a solution, that's kinda the point and how most of my videos are. I almost never say "Yall should do X) in my videos. I had my bell hooks all cued up along with research on black intimate partnership issues, but when I sat down with it I didn't like what it was turning into. I may make that anti manosphere video one day but I DEFINITELY wasn't making it for valentines day. Also I really don't see how including IR and queer couples throws anything off. They are prime examples of "black love" that don't fit the branding aesthetic. They added value to the discussion, and I HATE how unrepresentative "black love" discussions are. The first love video featured queer black men too btw. At the same time, yeah no video is perfect. I'm one guy trying to write, film, and edit videos on a 2 week circuit, there's parts.of this video on the editing floor that maybe would have made you more satisfied. There's things I wish I had addressed more clearly. There's awesome stories about blackness from the queer and ir couples that would have better explained their presence. Either way thanks for the watch and the honest and good faith criticism.
    11
  448. I theorize that the filmmakers wanted an arthouse film and the studio wanted the purge and they tried to compromise to horrible results
    11
  449. 1.5 million people disagree
    11
  450. He killed innocent people who had nothing to do with the struggle, children fam. And he again admitted it really had nothing to do with liberation. You can't excuse those things no matter hard you try
    11
  451. It's all love. Yall can come back from the brink lol we here for you
    11
  452. That's a bar

  453. The way I read "bro I'm with your wife" and had to re read it a few times before I decided how to respond🤣 But yes that's the thing. It's impossible to understand until you're here.
    11
  454. Just hit 1k last week so we picking up speed!
    11
  455. I think considering Umar's branding and beliefs I was pretty damn gracious and good faith.
    11
  456. The "American" part is important because slavery was very different (more brutal in some ways) in the Caribbean and elsewhere
    11
  457. You don't see white gay people on TV? Do you watch tv?
    11
  458. Patreon coming soon. Maybe at 2k
    11
  459. Writing that episode this week hopefully
    11
  460. This is literally based on data and historical record.
    11
  461. To say that on this video in particular... This gotta be a you thing.
    11
  462. Bro I been boxing with bots ALL DAMN WEEEEEK!
    11
  463. One thing I learned early is to watch a video before commenting on it...
    11
  464. They're talking mostly to the same audience though, myself included tbh. Watch the video
    11
  465.  Motown Gayes  clarify for me. This may be something I tackle in a future video. What exactly do you mean
    11
  466. I don't rock with this new thing some of yall do where you try to exclude biracial black folks from their own blackNess. That ish is weird and harmful.
    11
  467. Deez nuts look like bubbles
    11
  468. Hey welcome back to the channel!
    11
  469. Adoption? Get pregnant? Surrogates? Artificial insemination?
    10
  470. Yeah i love my left tube folks but it felt so good to talk to brothers outside of this space about this issue
    10
  471. I mention this in a future video. My mistake
    10
  472. Should be fixed
    10
  473. ...this refutes my overall point in what way?
    10
  474. This seems to be what the algorythm likes... so expect more... and longer lol
    10
  475. There's no such thing as 100% black 😂
    10
  476. I got a dope cosign from a big tuber, and now algorithm senpai is noticing me.
    10
  477. I definitely know why it works. I just don't think that's a good thing
    10
  478. Fam did you watch the video?
    10
  479. I was so proud of that joke😁 It means so much that parts of my humor shine through
    10
  480. Thank you for the depthful critique. A lot of your points are ones i considered in the production of the vid but decided... it was already long enough lol. One thing that was the lynchpin of the essay that maybe didn't fully come across is that this is all an offshoot on patriarchal social norms/expectations. Some of the discrepancies you present fit better/worse from different angles, but all of this colorism stuff is a direct offshoot of white supremacy and patriarchy. This is probably why the core parts of fetishism hit home the best (which I've heard from several people) which I've heard from multiple people.
    10
  481.  @St1kyFinguz  I agree overall. If you watch my first video on Hamilton (be warned... it's rough it was my first ever video) I say that overall I don't have a serious issue with the work.
    10
  482. The issue is that there's such a delicate balance between pusbing back and the type of shit that some brothas be on that's unacceptable. We wont be able to push back effectively if we dont come to terms with where and why some of these narratives get so much traction.
    10
  483. 27 total comments on my videos... You're a fan 😎

  484.  @akashaj8610  look up t1j, foreign man in a foreign land, saintandrewism, the storyteller, toonrifiqtariq. We our here. The algorithm don't love us like it love Kebin Samuels tho...
    10
  485. 1- i'm more likely to get killed by the police than have to call them for my family getting abducted. 2- Police already don't do much to help anyway so what do i have to lose? Did you watch the video?
    10
  486.  @tariksmith3429  I'm making youtube videos
    10
  487.  @jobro5496  Look at it like this. I sell really good tacos. Some people prefer burgers, some people prefer pizza. But I make tacos. I tell people all the time i make tacos, but those folks don't listen. They keep saying F.D you're so good at making tacos... you should make burgers (or Pizza). So I make a really good taco and I tell one group yo... I made a burger. I tell the other i made a pizza. They bring they asses in here and i serve them a taco like i been saying. And if they're both mad then I know it was a good taco... This got really silly but maybe it made sense. I didn't piss off my customers. From the reception my customers are clearly pleased. I pissed off people who keep coming to me wanting me to make a specific kind of content that I keep telling them i don't make. If one of either of these types of customers was too satisfied then I know i didn't make what I thought i made.
    10
  488.  @strawberry_tuesday  but you helped me get paid and even commented. Thank you for your support 😊
    10
  489. Now is the best time tbh.
    10
  490. This isn't accurate. It was two different women
    10
  491. Kinda ironic I caught this goofy comment with just enough time to flame your a$$ up 😂
    10
  492. No one actually defunded any police pretty much anywhere you can look that up. And the rise in crime (which is overblown, it's morea rise in crime coverage) is mostly attributable to social responses too covid
    10
  493. He's not that old. He's only 8 years older than me. He was a child in the crack epidemic, I was born during it
    10
  494. No you don't 😂
    10
  495. Nigga unsub then 😆
    10
  496. My first time hearing it was this video and that was legit the face j made
    10
  497. Comic batman =/= movie batman
    10
  498. 😭😭😭
    10
  499. Lol i could only mention so much. That was so fantastical it kind of slipped my mind. That was a GREAT subversion of the trope. Maybe I'll make a follow up to talk about that. That was definitely a missed opportunity when looking at other men of color in that trope.
    10
  500. I'd be interested in hearing when you have time
    10
  501. You didn't watch the video for real did you
    10
  502. Nightmares about this
    10
  503. ✌🏿
    10
  504. I'd argue men have more of a responsibility tbh if I understand you right. The thing I want to illustrate is that as men start to turn away from patriarchy it's sometimes women who tell us to turn back and we need folks to be fully on board.
    10
  505. I have no idea. I'm not a libertarian lol. My guess is libertarians are still pretty racist tbh
    10
  506. "Pookies and Ray Ray's" isn't criticism it's ridicule
    10
  507. Pew research did a study looking at the change or lack there of in people identifying as gay. Other than that it's ry common sense. Count up the amount of blak.men on TV. Tally up how many are.gay or playing gay characters the numbers don't lie.

  508. Damn what does it mean to be lil Zane in 2021?

  509. I didn't use the phrase white supremacy?

  510. Hey we tak all fans here! I havent seen that one since middle school, that would be an interesting experience. It's going on the list!
    9
  511. Never claimed unbiased
    9
  512. Of course not, I'm clearly not white.
    9
  513. Thanks for the reply, and yeah this is exactly what I went through, but once I saw the narrative stuff they were building up there was no way I wasn't finishing. me and my wife stayed up well past bedtime to watch the whole 2.5 hours of this.
    9
  514.  @metalninjajesus1580  I mean... this is like my 3rd attempt at a thumbnail for this video. YouTube basically requires that we create thumbnails that court controversy. I'm trying to tread a fine line. I am fine with the thumbnail and more significantly since I changed it the views on the video, which I do think gives an important message, have skyrocketed. But I hope you keep your principles. Maybe if enough people take your stance YT will have less toxicity as a whole.
    9
  515. You don't have a good understanding of racism. If racism were as simple as xenophobia then black people across the world wouldn't be experiencing it. Because white people are typically very clueless about how racism actually works im always skeptical of their opinions on race. That said, due to structural racism most of the most prominent experts on race tend to be white
    9
  516. I spent 15 years in the streets fam
    9
  517. I feel the same way about both. Joker was beautiful but I couldn't stand it's unintentional subtext. The last scenes ruined it for me. I left the theater disgusted.
    9
  518. @boredom2go  there's no such thing S a "correct" stereotype fam. All stereotypes are based partially in reality that's what makes them so harmful to marginalized people.
    9
  519. No he didn't lol. How you just gonna make shit up. Trump got less than 10% of the black voter
    9
  520. Abolition. The police as we know it will never work.
    9
  521. Thank you Greg I needed that frfr I'm freaking out. This provided balance.
    9
  522. I gotta thank @Khadija Mbowe they got the algorithm finally show me some love and now (hopefully) things can really take off
    9
  523. I mean... that's not meant to be a scientific statement fam. It's just a community platitude that stems from black people historically being the kings of rhythm, dance, and song to the point that world wide our dances and music are the most popular and influential. There's some pseudo Sciences that say it's in the melanin but I don't really believe that. And I don't know what it is tbh. Still I don't know what world you have to live in to not notice that black people and Africans have not been at the forefront of music and melody since forever.
    9
  524. Tyler Perry is awful and here's why at 500k
    9
  525. I agree but the documentary seems to try to act like that is somehow connected to lgbtq people. That is what kills the message.
    9
  526. Y'all just be saying shit
    9
  527. It actually says more about you than anything. YouTube promotes on an individual basis
    9
  528. You clearly don't know the history. You might want to do some googles as to where it started
    9
  529. I'm a whole communist dude. I'm not a Democrat. I'm paid by my patrons and viewers like you😄
    9
  530. Where? Where was that argument made?
    9
  531. Do you think gay people are unaware of this?
    9
  532. All of em...😔
    9
  533. The topic of the video was Rihanna? Marriage is only for Caucasians? Can you point me to the parts of the video that gave you this impression. I may need to do some edits...
    9
  534. How so?
    9
  535. Yeah, and that's where I go next vid, the concerning lack of awareness of the line between fantasy and reality. Is that the FNAF rip off? I saw RLM do a review of it, definitely fits the trope.
    9
  536. What is there to explain?
    9
  537. It's crazy how steeped we are in that type of language. Completely came out if my head without a second thought. I'll try to be better on that
    9
  538. Dude every comment you leave on this video helps me make money. You'd know this if you actually watched video 😂. So either let me get the last word or join my Patreon I win either way 🤑
    9
  539. I don't know much about it but I don't give it much credence of face value. People tend to partner based on community population more than anything. You love who you love around mostly
    9
  540. I'd argue that's an oversimplification, or that even if it's not, we still need to dig into that in order to find more ways to dismantle it. I kind of go into it more in the follow up video to this about edgelords.
    9
  541. So if you're happy BECAUSE your partner isn't black then yeah... that's problematic. If you're just happy with your partner who happens to not be black then you should keep watching
    9
  542. You just compared black republicans to jews in N*zi Germany and then asked why i don't take yall seriously...
    9
  543. Sounds like you're a bit simple minded and don't understand that data and social phenomenon can be contradictory. Depending on how research is.done it can provide data that doesn't effectively explain an issue, or be conflicting. The south has more churches per cPuta than any place in the country, they also watch the most porn and have the most strip.clubs. they have the most teen pregnancies but highers indicators for religiosity. White women are definitely oppressed and do plenty of oppressing. Just becauae they contradict doesnt mean rheyre not true. Two things can be true at once. I explained these things thoroughly in the video. Did you just shut your brain off when a contradiction was introduced? Did you not understand? You didn't present any counter argument here you just said it was idpol, that's not an actual argument against anything. Also of course I know Ben's video was a joke. It's still a lame one that made him look like a loser which is why I didn't talk about it but for a few minutes.
    9
  544. Lol my bad
    9
  545. Ah the old "you're clearly right but I don't like how it makes me feel" comment.
    9
  546.  @TheNocturneMoon  so I think there's some interesting and important discussions there. To me the difference is that I don't see how Simon's deception in any way coerced Daphne into having sex with him. I'm open to a different interpretation, but I don't think it's in the same area of concern.
    9
  547.  @happynappy4244  If someone corrects me when speak to them as being black and says "no I'm biracial" then I will gladly call that person a biracial. The VAST majority of biracial black folks identify themselves as black. This is just some neo-hotep stuff that mostly only exists in social media and on the internet so we gonna have to agree to disagree.
    9
  548. Bo Burnham
    9
  549. You might not be understanding the video. Did you comment before watching?
    9
  550. So... you didn't watch it then
    9
  551. Stop commenting often helps
    9
  552. Patriarchy is not a universal social structure and even where it existed historically, there were many variations. Regardless the one we have now is explicitly center3d around a white supremacist framework because it bars black people from the core component of it which is personal capital.
    9
  553. Youtube optimization lol.
    9
  554. Most of the movies and shows people think of that have black men wearing dresses came out in the 90s and early 2000s... which also makes that argument really stupid cause no big black actors right now have worn dresses.
    9
  555. The thing to remember is that drug users are far more likely to be arrested for possession of drugs than anything though. That's the "harm" they are being arrested and imprisoned for which is BP's point
    8
  556. Yeah. I wish id have went more on how disappointing it ia to finally have a black protAgonist in this type of movie and have it be a dud.
    8
  557. Where did you get this data from?
    8
  558. ... I'm confused what this is on reference to
    8
  559. Good Lord I hope so
    8
  560. Take note this loser watches videos he doesn't like cause he doesn't have anything better to do. But thanks for the comments they help pay me
    8
  561. I was still learning how to make videos here so I definitely would get longnwinded when I didn't need to.
    8
  562.  @princep  Was.Ice.Cube the first Black person to say that? Was that his goal with the 20 page plan that Trump turned into a 3 paragraphs...? We can agree to disagree fam. I'll probably revist this again one day so I'll keep this conversation in mind
    8
  563. I mean... yeah. Isn't that the point?🤔
    8
  564. No you can't
    8
  565. Also any suggestions for the upcoming poll?
    8
  566. Did you watch the video
    8
  567. Let me cook
    8
  568. I don't know what woman you're talking about. That said I don't dictate what people call themselves or what they are seen as. I tend to call people who look black or are black coded black. I don't see much value in arguing semantics unless someone has explicitly stated they consider themselves biracial. All of this is socially constructed anyway.
    8
  569. Ah I see. You're one of those super popular and successful black manosphere types. Nuff said.
    8
  570. The idea that straight black men are under represented really blows my mind. How can some of yall be so hard focused on the handful of gay men in the media that yall miss the abundance of straight black men in every facet of entertainment. This is how propaganda works. Like in Lovecraft Country, one black man was gay. Every other black character was straight including the hero. No gay black characters in Black Panther, none in Judas and the Black Messiah, none in Get Out, Bad Boys 3, Spiderman, Django, Da 5 Bloods, Sorry to Bother You, I could name like 100 movies. We got a new Blade movie on the way, new black western, a static shock movie. You don't have data on this cause there is none. Guys like Nasheed have been saying this lie so much that people believe it but don't notice how it doesn't actually exist.
    8
  571. I take it you didn't finish the video
    8
  572. It's giving fragility
    8
  573. No
    8
  574. @MamadouKane-w6f  yes
    8
  575. How did you come away from this as me "blaming" black women 🤔
    8
  576. Lost of pre colonial African culture had evidence of homosexuality
    8
  577. Do you have an actual argument to say why I'm wrong? Or is this just cope?
    8
  578. There's no such thing as a country without racial bias, and that's where I'm gonna stop replying 😂
    8
  579. I specifically highlight that there's no significant loss of wealth by black men marrying out. There's no data I'm aware of that indicates this. Same with "self hatred" no evidence of this that isn't anecdotal.
    8
  580. There's definitely validity to this. We don't hold white men to the same standards of masculine performance, among other things. If I could go back I'd probably be more nuanced in that section.
    8
  581. I have a whole video about this
    8
  582. I appreciate this critique. I working through a different level of understanding with ASD and neurodivergent related things so I'll hold this and keep in mind as I learn more
    8
  583. Not ai
    8
  584. Give an example
    8
  585. Tbh like more than double the amount I have now at least. This is great money, but adsense pays a lot on successful videos and taxes ain't no joke.
    8
  586. This is just a data backed reality. Everyone prefers financial viability in a capitalist society. That doesn't make you a gold digger, and Im not saying it's true of all women.
    8
  587. Point to the parts of the video that say anything about hypergamy...
    8
  588. Did you watch the video? Like you're literally repeating what I said in the video. This comment is needlessly antagonistic lol. Fd: Black women were the main targets of sexual violence during slavery but black men also suffered to a lesser extent This comment: How dare you mention that black men we're victims of sexual violence when black women were the primary victims of sexual violence. 🫤
    8
  589. Sounds like you like what you hear but you're rejecting it out of spite...
    8
  590. Yeah as soon as I found him (through khadija of course) I was like YES this is what I need.
    8
  591. Reeeeeeeeeee
    8
  592. It's not his will... his son is a person and he doesn't have custody. He also is inherently trying to remove the option for millions of other people to make their own decisions.
    8
  593. Socialism is no guarantee to stop white supremacy by itself. You should read Keame Ture' and look into Pan Africannism. The point being made is that capitalism, especially in the west hinges upon systemic inequality and dismantling white supremacy is not possible without dismantling capitalism
    8
  594. Watch the video at least... you can skip to the section called "the last 20 minutes"
    8
  595. The point is that partners are going to be looking for different things and you can't garuntee value from looks, especially if you have to do a lot took a certain way
    8
  596. I would think so. I think the appeal of X was definitely that he spoke to that pain and Pac did the same, even though he lost that energy, but people still connected to that old part of him
    8
  597. Did he get dropped?
    8
  598. It's on the list definitely
    8
  599. Yeah this one was a bit rough in places that I saw, but I'm hoping the little change I get from reaching partner and getting bigger will make it possible to invest more, learn more editing skills, etc. Thanks for sticking with me.
    8
  600. Doesn't move out YET...
    8
  601. Yes... yes we were, and worse. Thankfully that didn't last long
    8
  602. Egypt had nothing to do with Africans means you either gotta be a white supremacist or an anti black Egyptian. Either way kick rocks
    8
  603. I don't want smoke with these kids fam
    7
  604. Part of the game. This seems like the winning combination lol
    7
  605. I think you'll feel better about part 2. Or at least understand the tone more.
    7
  606. You realize he's a pundit on the most prominent right wing network on YouTube right?
    7
  607. I mention her in the video. She got her own special shout out...😆. I read her when I was 19, some of her stuff is ok at bestl. ALL her stuff her stuff on homosexualty is dumb af.
    7
  608. Light skinned black people who have 2 black parents (like Russell Wilson) have the same treatment. It's not a biracial issue It's a colorism issue. Yall are just illogical
    7
  609. This was a crunch and was half 70% before the Oscar's. The Oscar's just gave it a new context
    7
  610. I'm getting ready to binge pose. So I'll get back to you on that. That said the goal was to examine mostly cis-het images of masculinity. I'd need to do some more research to engage with Trans men and women's images.
    7
  611. They scrutinize Lamar based on his standoffish disposition.
    7
  612. You're weird
    7
  613.  @princep  cause voting isn't like ordering food at a restaurant. Black folks expectation for politicians is misguided. I didn't vote for Biden cause I expected him to cater to black people. I voted for Biden cause it was the best option available to me. Cube and his plan is indicative of this magical thinking that a president is going to fix problems for black people. But we should know by now that there is no quick fix to our issues and that we need to be intentional and meticulous about that, not trying to make a big splash quick fix. I think black folks as a whole knew what they were getting with Biden. Cube thought he was getting something out of Trump but all he got was played and made to look dumb by Trump who too his name, slapped it on a plan that had nothing 5o do with the plan he created, and then pushed to the side.
    7
  614. Ooh. My bad. Yeah I fid miss the actual "king flex " section. SMH
    7
  615. Id say the same about women if they were doing sex tourism
    7
  616. The interracial couple still deal with the same probelm
    7
  617. Sorry but statistically speaking I'm pretty confident that's a reflection of reality. Even if you just consider the amount of women led households, this is more likely a reflection of people's experiences than a specific manifestation of mysoginoir. That said, I'd also argue that this unaddressed issue with black boys is something that festers into mysoginoir.
    7
  618. You should watch it...
    7
  619. Remember I said it wasn't explicitly sexual, it's also through arts, music, and sports
    7
  620. So underrated! Yall tripping

  621. Only 3 thumbnails... for now 🙃
    7
  622. I got something on men next month and then I'm black as hell til at least the end of the summer
    7
  623.  @purplelove3666  Again all of this is sociological and not based in biological reality. So what percentage of black do you have to be to be "black". 51? 70? Bob Marley's dad was white, is he biracial? What about Fredrick Douglass? Why are you even talking about black as if it's a race. Black is a color, we only decided to consider it a race 50ish years ago. In the 60s we were Negros, which is just a Spanish word for black. None of this stuff is based in logic. Logical disciplines have clear rules and guidelines. Once you start saying "50" percent black, when nobody is 50% anything you are far away from logic.
    7
  624. I said I was voting for her. Doesn't mean I'ma be nice about it
    7
  625. This is heavy projection lol
    7
  626. How often do Asian women denigrate Asian men as an excuse for dating out? Also I greatly defended black men, pointing out that the criticism that black men get for dating out is overall unfair, useless and not based in reality

  631. I honestly don't have a good explanation on that. I said it then thought better of it when I sat down to edit. But now I realize I didn't actually blur the word out... It's just bad praxis and oversight on my end. I'll be more vigilant in the future on stuff like this. Sorry.

  632. This isn't a lie it's research based. You may not like the terminology but it's describing a real phenomenon.
    7
  633. I was thinking about this. I will look into it. Soon
    7
  634. I wish that was true. To be fair it seems like many of the top documentaries on Amazon are trash. I saw a lot of Dnesh D'Souza there. But if you know like I know or even look through these comments... nah there's a lot of people who believe like this.
    7
  635. Aba and Preach are liberals. I'm a leftist, it's a big difference. I also don't punch down which is what Chapelle did. It's a pretty clear ethical framework if you're paying attention.
    7
  636. No, this is not an accurate analysis of how this works.
    7
  637. But you couldn't bring yourself not to comment. You realize you still help even with a negative comment
    7
  638. You know for some reason this wasn't too bad. I was worse off after the Obama video🤣
    7
  639. Oh lord... I never noticed that. This video went through a significant transition during it's production. I'll try to makes sure stuff like this is avoided in the future
    7
  640. Africa is a huge continent are you really going to say the "society of African countries" as if female genital mutilation is happening everywhere...
    7
  641. What counts as rare to you? Gun violence in America is rampant. School shootings represent a fraction of gun violence in America
    7
  642. I thought that budding looked weird lol
    7
  643. Nah fam, the boomers are damn near dead. All these oldheads you see now are Gen X. Anyone between like 45 and pushing 60 is gen x
    7
  644. The irony is that it DOES get that deep in the next video... Please subscribe and come back for the follow up. It's shaping up to be a pretty strong piece.
    7
  645. Idk I don't think black folks voted for Biden with true hope that he would be a good president
    7
  646. There's so much here. Firstly I'm honored to have been a part of this thoughtfulness. Also I agree and definitely see all of that cognitive dissonance, it's really a baseline state of blackness.
    7
  647. Cause f*ck them
    7
  648. This is a 3 part series
    7
  649. The problem is that no matter what he does, the audience that wants him to be a hero will make him a hero
    7
  650. I heard it was renewed and actually pretty good afterwards. Sadly I just don't watch much TV, especially appointment TV, until it's done and I can stream it. I'll set some time actually check it out. Queen Latifa is always great to me.
    7
  651. Dude I literally say in the video that I love these types of clown show comments I won't delete any of them you're paying my mortgage right now. Clearly you weren't paying good attention to the video
    7
  652. What points did I miss?
    7
  653. No white supremacy in mass media erases black people. Biracial people been black for centuries and yall letting Netflix and tik tok sow discord among us and I'm so tired of it...
    7
  654. The algorithm is an unjust God
    7
  655. More on this in part 2
    7
  656. Only almost tho lol
    7
  657. Please do
    7
  658. But who really is heterophobic? Like have you actually experienced being diacriminated against because you weren't gay? I have never been in a position where I was harassed or punished for NOT being gay. This sounds made up.
    7
  659. All crime is intraracial. Black on black crime is something racists throw out when they want to distract from a racial issue. It's not Black on black crime it's just crime. And crime is predicted by poverty and community health, not race. You complain about Marxism but your arguments against leftist ideologies don't hold up under scrutiny.
    7
  660. No one is saying you can't embrace your multi ethnic heritage...
    7
  661. From what i could find it seemed relatively circumstantial. For the girls/women in question ended up not having anything negative to say, and there weren't any explicit accusations from alleged victims etc. If there's more out there i'm open to hearing about it.
    7
  662.  @bmillersince92  eff em both
    7
  663. Lol I wish

  664. History tells us he was never allowed to which is why he left the noi
    7
  665. How do you feel about these 🥜
    7
  666. Only slightly censored
    7
  667. Did you watch the video?
    7
  668. Does my heart good to hear that fam. Thank you for your time here
    7
  669. Lookism Def is a thing but it's different things.
    7
  670.  @happynappy4244  Any situation where you're praising white people based on how they treat people of color should be scrutinized heavily... White and Eurocentric ideologies on how to treat people, especially along the lines of race are ALWAYS destructive. To imitate that is not for us. I can agree that bi-racial black people at times can do anti-black things. But so can "fully" black people. Candace Owens is fully black, etc. Adopting exclusionary practices is not the move. We can have conflict and conversations with biracial black folks about blackness and with other black folks in general. But I will not adopt a position that erases someone's blackness cause it ain't exactly like mine.
    7
  671. You guys have the understanding of children when it comes to race and I will never not be amused how stupid you guys sound
    7
  672. There's a lot if black femme creators better suited for that video than me. Khadija Mbowe has several
    7
  673. No. Is it confusing to you to hear a straight man defend black folks who aren't straight?
    7
  674. Keep commenting on them that helps
    7
  675. Already in the queue. After finishing the manga I was disgusted. Felt like I spent the last 10 years reading fascist fan fiction
    7
  676. Welcome aboard!
    7
  677.  @lanceflx63  name some A list black actors that have dressed in drag in the last 10 years. I'll wait.
    7
  678. That's the whole point
    7
  679. No you still do
    6
  680. Watch the video...
    6
  681. im not gay
    6
  682. Realistic may not have been the best word, my point was that Yvette seemed exaggerated, like the way women's behavior is described by men when they're complaining about women. The argument I land on is that her character is meant to engage with how some men see women, especially women they partner with.
    6
  683. You braced yourself 🤣. Yeah I ain't never gonna just clown my folks unless you talking the real conservatives
    6
  684. I cut large chunks of this out in editing that went more over the visuals. I basically said that some of the sequences were amazing and clearly very meticulous, although that didnt always mean good (i found the final battle messy and boring). I agree there was some effort to imprint the protag on to Kat, but to le it just failed to.land basically. Maybe that's on of those things that lands better on a second whatch. Thanks so much for the support man. Im trying to grow. If you liked the black masculinity piece i hope you had a chance to watch the Tyson video. It's probably my best work thus far.
    6
  685. Jewish =/= Zionist
    6
  686. Cause they're afraid of getting killed
    6
  687. I just extrapolated it as a criticism of exploitation
    6
  688. That's a profoundly sad truth.
    6
  689.  @Shinigami88X1  not really all that subtle. Truth is Marriage and similar institutions have Lways had economic factors
    6
  690. Nah that's all good. It's a tricky question and I'm just happy my answer made enough sense.
    6
  691. The missionaries install a form of Christianity that kinda works as foreplay for colonialism
    6
  692. What makes the western world gynocentric
    6
  693. I felt like the pretty privilege stuff was so topical that it needed to be talked about, especially because of the Kevin Samuels energy in the conversation. My hope was make the connection for black so that they could 1-Be more reflective on the structural challenges they face and 2- HOPEFULLY be more empathetic to the plight of black.women by recognizing the commonality. Idk what actually came across or how some folks will take it, but I do think it needed to be touched on.
    6
  694.  @cheekyfella4771  what am I thinking?
    6
  695. Who do you think "Team Terf" affects the most?
    6
  696. It just dropped yesterday. Looks like it will make a big splash🤞🏿
    6
  697. Pay for these 🥜 s And you already did by leaving this goofy ahh comment
    6
  698. "Hold women accountable" is a red flag phrase... Anyway I was highly critical of women's role in this issue sorry if it wasn't spicy enough for you
    6
  699. Thank you!
    6
  700. I gave her an apology in our talk. That's all I got left for her.
    6
  701. Did you watch the whole video?
    6
  702. 2 down 2 to go
    6
  703. The flaw here is allowing certain interests to be Labeled "White" in the first place. Although I know that is the case, I don't endorse that liking certain things makes you any less black
    6
  704. All if them really
    6
  705. @Penny Wise  no harm fam I did get spicy with yhe thumbnail so that's on me too
    6
  706. This my first ever disliked comment! lol
    6
  707. Damn... well I guess the other 950k people will have to suffice...
    6
  708. Im planning to do some content discussing LGBTQ imagery in media, but I don't want to overstep my boundaries by being too critical of the representation of them in media cause I don't feel like I can confidently speak to what it SHOULD look like as a cist het black man. Im hoping to collab with some black LGBTQ creators eventually to tackle stuff like Moonlight and Pvalley. That said, I have hear plenty about "white gays". I did touch on Moonlight for a second in my black masculinity in the media video a while back, and Im going to return to it a bit probably in an upcoming video probably in late feb-march. If you have any suggestions for queer black men tubers point em out. I've only seen fem and trans women tubers doing these types of videos.
    6
  709. Also thanks so much for the kind words. I've seen some nice growth this month, I'm hoping it continues so I can take this more seriously and level up a bit. Please circulate my name to your peers as someone to check out!
    6
  710. Did you watch the video or are you white and angry?
    6
  711. This is a great honor seriously!
    6
  712. I already know this info. Buy I'm curious what you will say.
    6
  713. EXACTLY
    6
  714. That whole scheme was disses. "I'm nicer than Pete"- Pete Nice of 3rd Bass. "Search to crush a Milkbone"- Mc Search of 3rd Bass and Milkbone. And of course "Everlast"ing and Vanilla Ice
    6
  715.  @KpogiD  generally speaking Joe Rogan is going to cross over a ton with Dave Chappelle. You seem like a smart guy, you should research how algorithms work. Here's a free lesson don't comment so much on stuff you don't want to see cause the algorithm thinks that's what you want to see more of.
    6
  716. We gonna act like I didn't do 2 other videos about the white manosphere before this tho... with over a million views collectively
    6
  717. I tried to make that point later in the video that it seems like a lot of those movies had relatively progressive themes but the edgelord only sees the power fantasy.
    6
  718. There were gay people in pre-colonial Africa. It wasn't everyone but it was a few especially considering there were A LOT of different cultures in the huge continent that Africa is. Folks want so bad to pretend that there weren't, but there were. There's lots of evidence of this if you Google it.
    6
  719. It's been in my head since July
    6
  720. I saw my first ever over the weekend... it's still the second best thing i saw this weekend. The first was the new thumbnail of this video. Point taken but denied.
    6
  721. Did you watch the whole video?
    6
  722. It'd need to be a big bag
    6
  723. I see what you're saying. So I'll hold more space for the fact that her perspective is informed by her age group but that interview definitely is not from the 90s or even the early 2000s she had enough time to update her perspective like many her age and station did. I gave credit to the fact that she was a compelling figure in many regards but it doesn't change the fact that the guy agenda myth is greatly her doing.
    6
  724. Keep watching that section did you not see my explanation?
    6
  725. This is a myth that people tell to protect the systems of oppression that harm all of us. There are ALWAYS outliers that can be successful despite their race or gender. But they are the lucky one's. The system is designed to create inequality between a few lucky few and everyone else.
    6
  726. What would you have said differently?
    6
  727. At some point me and T1j will meet/talk and its gonna be some type of highlander situation 🤣🤣🤣 I legit didn't show my face for a while cause I knew people would mix us up and I wondered if people would think I was copying off him or something.
    6
  728. The song you're looking for is Cartoons and Cereal. It's a great song

  730.  @ericsbraun  sophist these 🥜

  732. I thought the same tbh. I swore he was black with Albinism
    6
  733. Editing mistake I didn't catch
    6
  734.  @janelane8982  I need some citations for this info. Further (and I said this in the video) I need you to explain how this legitimizes this theory thT black men are being systematically emasculated
    6
  735. The black panthers weren't communist... are we gonna hand wave that too? What is "extreme" imagery? Where are these analytics I need to see some data and methods. Not lgbtq, not an immigrant. Do yall realize how yall sound when you say that? So on and so forth... merry Christmas fam
    6
  736. Thanks so much!

  737. Bad take by her, one that she should have amended before she died

  738. This has been sitting in the system for 2 weeks now so it should be safe

  740. La Kieth is breaking molds out here.
    6
  741. Yorue wild if you think im bout to argue with you in the comments about something you have no clue about when i already made a video explaining this, but hey if you don't care to watch it, it is what it is. 🤷🏿
    6
  742. It's much more apparent as you watch Jeen yus.. makes me sad
    6
  743. I think calling hip-hop right wing is very VERY much a stretch. And there was no real conflict between gangsta rap and conscious hip hop at any time in the 80s and 90s other than the sport of rap competition. If anything conscious rappers threw a lot more jabs at commercial and gangsta rappers. The gangsta rappers barely paid attention to them. Now if you want to speak to hip hop as a celebration of capitalism... sure that shoe can fit. Is/has hip hop been hyper masculine, mysoginiatic, homophobic, definitely. But right wing... idk if that works cause that conveys a politics of respecting the state, ignoring the needs of the poor, glorifying tradition etc. None of those things are present in hip hop.
    6
  744. Thank you for commenting
    6
  745. Like I say it's a very liberal take. They are OK with the low hanging fruit, but they don't address the systemic issue and don't see why punching down on them all the time and ridiculing them makes the problem worse.
    6
  746. Almost a million people at this point...🤷🏿‍♂️
    6
  747. Thumbnail and title changes are a part of the game yall.
    6
  748.  @Covinaman-00  what did I say that was heterophobic?
    6
  749. Nah this doing numbers, it might be here to stay
    6
  750. What can I do to get y'all to stop watching my content...
    6
  751. Nah. Thanks for finishing tho
    6
  752. So far about 100k people
    6
  753. Because the republican party became overtly racist and anti civil rights at the time
    6
  754. The initial plan was to talk to women but as I talked to men I realized that I wanted to center men's experiences more explicitly apart from our desires for women.
    6
  755. He makes it seem like the community gave him hell over being biracial, that's not true, that's him gaslighting.
    6
  756. Tbh I don't think it changes a ton, but it does change some things. I'm planning an interracial relationship video hopefully in September so stay tuned
    6
  757. Youtube has a really soft definition of harassment so lots of stuff gets away
    6
  758. I felt like it would be unfair and wrong minded to theorize on her mental state too much cause we really just don't knor
    6
  759. Sorry for liking myself so much and being so smart 😞
    6
  760. You mean my locs? You think dread locs are white and feminine 😂😂😂
    6
  761. Cope
    6
  762. The consequences for not changing your tone are not the same though
    6
  763. Nah ion want to talk to King Flex. Nothing good will come of that. I'd rather talk to his folks if they'd ever listen... Lots of dudes watched 2 minutes and then came to the comments mad af!
    6
  764. It's just my wall... those are kid stains😅
    6
  765. Nah probably not
    6
  766. Tell me more about this. I don't follow Nasheed does he deny he tried to fake like he was a pimp for years?
    6
  767. Not really a rock band tbh but yeah
    6
  768. Did 👏🏿 you 👏🏿 watch 👏🏿 the 👏🏿 video 👏🏿👏🏿 before 👏🏿 commenting?
    6
  769. It's on the menu
    6
  770. It was cute. It wasn't very good but it was fine for what it was.
    6
  771. Damn I hoped no one would hear that Freudian slip🤣
    6
  772. 4th
    6
  773. When i get to my white rapper video i'll be talking about him
    6
  774. I am agnostic but was raised Muslim
    6
  775. I can't wait to hear you elaborate on this
    6
  776. Putting that on the reading list.
    6
  777. Yes but "left tube" =/= leftist politics. It's just a specific space that's mostly white which is why I wanted to kind of separate them out
    6
  778. Why are we talking about Kendrick here? Also Kendrick is already 10 years deep in his career and we're still talking about him a ton idk if that holds any merit
    6
  779. You need to rewatch the section. I clearly bring up that he spent more time talking about men earlier. I clearly point out that he is a conservative cause he's a card carrying republican. I clearly point out how he was ugly toward men as well, that's why i called yall simps. You heard what you wanted to hear.
    6
  780. I would NEEEEEVER platform Owens.
    5
  781. There was a correction on screen
    5
  782. What was the point I missed, and before you answer... Did you actually watch my video?
    5
  783. This is a great take and makes tons of sense. Which is why it hasn't gotten the same traction as "black men don't benefit from patriarchy" crowd. If this was the core of the discussion that I've seen I wouldn't have ever said anything cause there's no argument here from my perspective. The issue I take is this idea that patriarchy just dissappear for black men when so much evidence is to the contrary. Do black men get THE SAME experience under patriarchy of course not which is where I took it in the rest of that section.
    5
  784. ...did I not slander the democrats enough for you in this video? What did you watch?
    5
  785. ...you don't recognize men working more hours is a product of patriarchy? You may not understand that concept as well as you think
    5
  786. 🤣🤣🤣
    5
  787. Somebody is triggered
    5
  788. What he said about the hat and the t shirt was dumb and not a good excuse. Only his stans think those excuses made sense
    5
  789. Definitely a part of it. I wouldn't call him poorly written outside of the last chapter btw.
    5
  790. The data specifically says non white/non black Latinos
    5
  791. It has!!!
    5
  792. His words... watch the video
    5
  793. I touch on this a lot. Check a few of my othe vids. Maybe start with baby boy
    5
  794. Centrist assumes that things are equal on both sides. Do you think things are equal on both sides
    5
  795. What am I misunderstanding?
    5
  796. You have no idea what mass incarceration is...
    5
  797. Next month

  798. I watched some of your stuff for research, I had ignored most of these dudes forever
    5
  799. Cause you didn't ask a question lol, you're sitting here telling me that I'm playing dumb. But for the record no I think most religions are valid. Now go away
    5
  800. His support of great replacement theory
    5
  801. Man I struuuuugled through it.
    5
  802. Eeeeeeh... idk I think there's a few solid examples
    5
  803. It's something cause I've noticed this as well
    5
  804. Post Malone came into popularity making trap hip hop and then as he gained Popularity began to talk bad about hip hop and distance himself from his previous "White iverson" image. It's the epitome of a culture vulture.
    5
  805. Why doesn't popping ass make a top 10 mc?
    5
  806. Good point, but remember that Rorschach despite his right wing inclinations died before co-signing genocide
    5
  807. Either is fine after you buy the service but I get paid more per view on Nebula by far
    5
  808. Read, Berserk is notorious for not having the best adaptations
    5
  809. Next week
    5
  810. Lol I've only had a few people make that connection which probably isn't a bad thing some of that early stuff hasn't aged well. I know once I get big enough THAT is what is gonna get me canceled 🤣. But I'm happy to reconnect with old fans. It's dope to see folks remember. I even mention Rod and Karen on the "Impossible White Man Video".
    5
  811. That was a false interpretation of the law that he used as an excuse for his transphobia. His recent attack oh Elliot Page should kill any falsehoods of what his real beliefs are at this point.
    5
  812. No one is a pure victim in this except for Jada really, although her actions the last few years definitely don't help.
    5
  813. I've got an idea related to this in the books
    5
  814.  @TheChannelJ1  The conflict around Rihanna's pregnancy is rooted directly in the same framework that also seeks to exclude and minimize the visibility and validity of lgbtq, poly, and interracial relationships. It's a hegemonic believe that the "proper" framework of black love is one black man, one black woman, under patriarchy. My whole argument is that "black love" needs to die any form of love that a black person experiences is "black love" (within reason of course) and any barriers, hierarchies, or frameworks that seek to exclude a black person's experiences of love is invalid to me. That is what "black love tm" is to me, a limiting framework that commodifies and polarizes our intimate partnerships and that's why it needs to die. To me Black Love is any form of love intersected with a black experience and identity, even if it's the type of love i personaly wouldnt participate in. The goal and the reason for all the other parties was to put on display that concept.
    5
  815. It's important from all angles. It's the whole world not just mom, BUT mom can do a lot to help. I think a lot of moms try to "replace" black male energy and sometimes end up backfiring on tough love with their sons. It's a complex situation. It's also hard to just "find" any old dude to mentor young black men cause some dudes are not really helping these boys. BUT there is research that black male mentors, coaches, uncles etc Def have a positive effect. But look for men who are open to nurturing a boy as an emotional being and not just toughening them up or "teaching him how to he a man".
    5
  816. Please believe I will take their money when the time comes
    5
  817. White supremacy and systemic racism
    5
  818. Sorry that I came across as alienating here. I had initially intended to have this video be more inclusive of women's voices and have them speak to what they desire, but as I started talking to other men I felt like what was best was for this to feel like a very male centered almost "locker room talk" but without the overt mysoginy. Im trying create a message that actually penetrates through the heads of some od these guys. It's why I barely mentioned patriarchy until 45 min in as to not have them turn off their antenna. I wanted to avoid the most common talking points that most usually hear and focus on it being more of an inspirational, head clearing message than a lecture. That meant probably not being as affirming as I could have been to women's experiences in these situations. All of this and also trying to make it 90 min cause my 2 hrs videos always under perform🥲 So yes it was definitely erasure to an extent so I am sorry about that.
    5
  819. It ain't much really. Just a decent Mic, a normal stand and good acoustics.
    5
  820. Like I said in the video, you can call yourself whatever you want, but whatever the world sees you as is a good enough definition to go with. The vast majority of the world will see Marley as black. He saw himself as black. Saying he's biracial is just being a contrarian. You can define him as whatever you want, but let's not force the idea that any of it is based in logic or empirical science. It's all perception and social opinions

  821. Thanks for all the comments bro. I appreciate the support. Happy Juneteenth.
    5
  822. Ask them about what scares them
    5
  823. Some of my best friends are white 😁
    5
  824. I don't see how anyone who is genuine can consistently say some of the absolutely ridiculous things she says.
    5
  825. If you can't tell how much I love us through my videos idk what to tell you fam... I'll still be here when you feel less attacked
    5
  826. It was good you should see it. But I made this well before it was released
    5
  827.  @chakshin  sure why not.
    5
  828. Thanks for watching 😀
    5
  829. YT let's me do some back end rough editing. I'll make a few changes
    5
  830. Did you even watch any part of the video before spewing this half baked nonsense? 😳
    5
  831. That's between pateron, nebula, sponsors, and youtube ads. Everyone don't got it like me, and I could have sooooooo much more if I did different content probably
    5
  832. Shhhh don't ruin when I subvert things in a later video...🤫
    5
  833.  @ferrykent433  you should do mote research. There's plenty of academic scholarship and history done by Africans that show that there were plenty of same sex activities in pre-colonial Africa. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/sep/09/being-gay-african-history-homosexuality-christianity https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/10130950.2006.9674706?casa_token=iFzQqNLZS7AAAAAA:9bxO4ibEZgbq_oSrGfHynYWZog3UsPry2GKo7USLPZURyRovRALTIm5Cwooya9Nvao-JCF99FIZx https://fis.uni-bamberg.de/bitstream/uniba/248/1/Dokument_1.pdf
    5
  834.  @ferrykent433  bro what you mean "like I said" Did you even read what I put here? That's NOT TRUE. it existed BEFORE Europeans. How you gonna say you do the research and then not do the research lol
    5
  835. 🤷🏿‍♂️where's the lie
    5
  836. I already made it go to the main page
    5
  837. I think I'll post a few books and studies. Most of it is just Google and African American book stores. Just look hard at the works cited otherwise you gonna end up going left
    5
  838. thanks for the comment. What I try to point out is that there's a causation vs correlation problem. I would be a liar if i tried to say that the negative aspects of hip hop music have no effect on the people who consume it. However, it's highly overblown to say that it's a real cause of social dysfunction of black people, and there's plenty of social science to support this. What's more fair is to say that the experiences living in poverty and under systemic racism shape what hip hop looks an sounds like. Of course this relationship is somehwat symbiotic, but if we are tyring to understand the "cause" of the problem, then we shouldn't waste too much time looking at hip hop. If all the rap music in the world dissapeared but all the systemic racism stayed... we wouldnt' see much of a difference. The 80s were one of the most dangerous eras in this country and rap music had barely made it out of the basement. Furthermore i say the same thing about these "edgelord" movies. I "tried" (cause i know things don't always come across) to point out that the Joker really had minimal impact in terms of influence on alt right/redpill type communities. And that there have been movies similar to joker for decades now. The movies aren't a true influence on those communities, it's the communities that influence the moive. Because we have generations of white men who feel betrayed and/or left out of society, they contribute to a culture that makes art that reflects that experience. thus we have the joker in 2019, Falling down in 1993, and rebel without a cause in 1955. We won't fix edge lord behavior by getting rid of the joker. We won't stop poverty in black communities by getting rid of rap music. We need to focus on core conditions not scapegoat low hanging fruit. It's a chicken or egg type situation.

  839. No I don't

  840. Take a guess
    5
  841. Fam I don't get it either but trust me they're here. It used to bother me more but I'm coming to accept that.
    5
  842.  @nerdyafrican1185  no harm, I was mad long winded in this one🤣. I'm still learning the craft believe it or not
    5
  843. Idk if I have the stomach for it...
    5
  844. You need to keep watching
    5
  845. I spend like 15 min talking about black men and preferences and how black women don't behave the same way and explicitly point out that they are twice as likely to marry out than black women. Idk what you consider skating over but the info was discussed
    5
  846. Watch my other videos on the topic
    5
  847. Buck breaking came out like 5 years ago she definitely was being homophonic

  849. How do the elites steal exactly...?
    5
  850. My point to NOT bring it up but to be less about grandstanding on the topic when other shit is on the menu. Trust I've personally said more about the Congo than Palestine in my content.
    5
  851. It might be. Atlanta is a black art mecca
    5
  852. Depends on what that means. Of course there's a need to preserve tradition and knowledge of the past, but idk if that's what "conservative" means anymore
    5
  853. So you just gonna ignore the fact that my parents were born here. This is why I usually don't respond to you goodballs
    5
  854. Sounds beta to me...
    5
  855. Nah it's me. But I just got with a sound editor so in the future that should be better
    5
  856. Check my community page
    5
  857. But I think the man is bad. And it's not an attack on white supremacy when it takes time to demonize black gay people.
    5
  858.  @kelvinnyaga-online9055  then why so many images of black men twerking?
    5
  859. You should also leave as many comments as possible
    5
  860. I think two things can be true at once. What Rock stated resonates with a lot of black men's experiences, AND we know that there are plenty of situations where women fall in love with "bums"
    5
  861. You should watch the video
    5
  862. The civil rights movement
    5
  863. Watch the whole video
    5
  864. I'd still call that idealized but I was making generalization in that they still not getting to the grit of thr thing
    5
  865. The advice was bad, the scene is amazing
    5
  866. Don't make me watch that🤣
    5
  867. 😭😭😭
    5
  868. You still gonna watch
    5
  869. You should watch this and maybe chill out a bit. https://youtu.be/sEEBKbCvDJE?si=sGI8j2Yklgm5dArL

  870. Damn i f*cked up on that. I love hamburgers lol
    5
  871. Not LTG
    5
  872. Contractual obligation. Patrons get the rough cut early tho
    5
  873. Next Friday
    5
  874. Nope lol that's the algorithm doing it's job
    5
  875. My research says he lived in the apartments within the neighborhood and paid the houses bills with his acting money. Idk if I'd call that privileged
    5
  876. Black misandry is a newer concept in the discourse and yes at a simple level it relates to what you mention here. It's tough though cause the supporters of this framework have some overlap with antifeminist figures so it's touchy
    5
  877. You got 80 min in and then got mad when I started talking about critical race theory... My content might be for you.
    5
  878. I think they dated the same woman
    5
  879. Seeing a lot of comments on this makes me want to do another video. I've seen a few videos too that... idk if I rock with the rationale. A lot if folks seem to be practicing erasure and gatekeeping, but some are also looking to create new spaces. Its complicated
    5
  880.  @wiremotherclothmother  I actually just like to still hear a bit more music in the video. 🤷🏿‍♂️ My whole audio was janky this video though like I said, messy production. I've kept the music at the same audio level for several videos now. Did the music bother you for Bo Burnham or Baby Boy? I'm genuinely curious. I put the music up maybe a bit too loud for the live video but it's been at the same level for almost all my videos.
    5
  881. Mass appeal for a product isn't always the move. That's how things get co-opted. Just spread the influence in your circle, that's how I came to this point.
    5
  882. There
    5
  883. Oh lord that's even wilder! I'm definitely putting that one in the queue
    5
  884. Can't be mad at that. My goal isn't to shit on black men, just push us forward, even if it means ruffling feathers. Im.never against trying to build from a place of conflict. Thank you for the critique
    5
  885. I had 3 sex workers in this video. What makes you say that?
    5
  886. "I killed 80 percent of the worlds population" "Morally grey" Im gonna assume you got so upset by me criticizing the character that you blanked out what was actually said. I love Wren's character overall as a part of a greater story. My issue is that it's written in a way where people like you end up calling global genocide "morally grey" cause you're not able to fully understand what the character and story is about. Eren isn't morally grey he's objectively evil. I don't mind that being the case. I have a problem with people's lack of understanding.
    5
  887. Casue they're not. You should read black Marxism
    5
  888.  @dwightquinn8568  for one who am I to Tariq for him to talk to. I don't get the vibe he talks to his critics. For 2 I don't really think highly enough of Tariq to seriously talk to him. I wouldn't wast my time tbh. I don't have any faith in his character to think that addressing him directly would have any bearing on him or his work. Like I can imagine a world where I talk to Umar or possibly even Kevin Samuels cuaze I have some belief that they are legit trying in maybe a way thT I don't agree with. But Tariq is a snake. It's sad really.
    5
  889. I don't lol. I'm voting for my most vulnerable enemy not for my savior.
    5
  890. So historically speaking... idk if any society lasts period. But there's plenty of examples of thriving societies that had female rulers... although most of them still ruled from a patriarchal standpoint. The question though is considering the nature of the world right now, is patriarchy still as effective of a social system (and by effective i mean only in the sense that it is able to allow some societies to survive and resist being conquered etc) For example New Zealand is turning into one of the safest, most progressive, and healthiest nations in the country while America is declining. We are so entrenched in patriarchy that it's starting to backfire. The military can hardly find decent recruits because of substance addiction, mental illness, and radicalization. Now that's also capitalisms fault, but you get the point. This is highly philosophical and so there's a lot of ways to look at it, but here's my thing. I care about the here and now, and I've seen too many black folks suffering to be ok with the type of attitudes presented in this "documentary". So regardless of the long term philosophical questions, there are little black boys and girls being exploited on the streets, and we aint doing enough about this.
    5
  891. I went and found some of his work. I live his overall focus and argument about racist misandry, but I greatly disagree with his take on intersectionality. But overall he's the one new black age scholar that I think I'd really pushing the envelope
    5
  892. They probably had more hope in your ability to see past your biases... whelp. Sorry you didn't get the video. I'll be rooting for you and your friend.
    5
  893. Indeed, she's why I started my channel low key.
    5
  894. Just reject being labeled as white and acknowledging whiteness and you'll be doing us both a favor
    5
  895. That's the highest compliment you can give a signifier! Please share if you appreciated the vid!
    5
  896. But who should we blame for this? Who's making that disparity possible? It's not gay people empowering themselves to do this
    5
  897. My bad. You get the point though 😁
    5
  898. Facts
    5
  899. Elaborate cause I'm gonna return to this topic eventually
    5
  900. While I make good money. People highly overestimate how much you make just from YouTube
    5
  901. It's not the goal It's just what happens when copyright comes through. I couldn't afford to lose the revenue on this
    5
  902. This was basically it lol. <--- Gigas main
    5
  903. I'm making it a point to not respond to most negative comments that have little validity but... "hard stuck at 26k" Dude I was at 2k a month ago I'm going to be at 30 by Monday Just say you don't like black folks and move on🤣
    5
  904. Got one planned next Valentine's day
    5
  905. Only a bit. From my limited knowledge queer couples tend to be more interracial
    5
  906. Cube needed to throw his name and support behind someone he trusted to handle the situation better is the key thing. Him jumping in front of the issue got him played
    5
  907.  @andremotivation6561  yeah HIS intentions and plan... he got politically out maneuvered
    5
  908. Is that what I said...?
    5
  909. Out of curiosity what is the Hasan iceberg?
    5
  910. You didn't watch the video
    5
  911. you didn't watch the video did you...
    5
  912. Yooooo I need that
    5
  913. Please do, I love yall but my fear is that brothers ain't gonna hear me, I need yall to get them on my algorithm so youtibe starts sharing my videos with other blacl.men.
    4
  914. Stay tuned

  915. Who Shot ya

  916. He went very VEEEEERY far and lost lawsuits and never had a real platform he was always on fringe media.

  917. Read through the comments, I'm not making this up
    4
  918. No such thing in the 90s but in a different timeline... Probably

  919. Somewhere between a troll and a zombie bear lol

    4
  922. Consider some of the animes mentioned in the misogyny section. Nana has a lot of sapphic vibes
    4
  923. It's hard to say. I've heard from plenty of younger guys who are very appreciative but I don't makencontent for kids. Maybe for younger boys this just leads to certain conversations
    4
  924. I'm doing a follow up. What was blatantly false outside of implying that James Holmes though he was the joker?
    4
  925. You got a bad attention span then lol
    4
  926. But the origins of punk are also black...🤔
    4
  927. I just said I'd debate as soon as my appearance fees are paid...
    4
  928. You didn't have to come for me like this
    4
  929. Did you watch the video...?
    4
  930. I wish I knew
    4
  931. Sadly this is at best primary qualitative data. I was there when it happened. I'll maybe update the description with that I can find, but really it's one of those "you know if you were there" things.
    4
  932. UK doesn't have the same history of white supremacy so tightly woven into their culture. Though racism still exists it's not the same
    4
  933.  @senxauraximili7106  yeah i never liked how he did that. He so low key with it that nobody has called him on it.
    4
  934. If dudes would stop trying to fight with women so much it'd be pretty easy to reconcile this concept into the discourse. Imnjust doing my part. The problem is Idk if all of the men who follow BMS are really about reconciling with black women sadly.
    4
  935. Damn really...
    4
  936. Yeah I went and looked it up. Disappointing hopefully there's a restorative situation there. I enjoyed their service frfr. I'll keep this in mind going forward
    4
  937. Not gonna lie ans say I read all this, but I will clarify I didn't walk back "can't tell who is who" still very much see that as an issue. I walked back the elitist perception of essayists being somehow superior in our method or acumen cause we make essays. Didn't want to come off like that
    4
  938. This is just demonstrably false lol but thank you for commenting
    4
  939. Watch the video
    4
  940. Yes they are
    4
  941. Like Fred Hampton?
    4
  942. Idk what a "style of identity" is but if you think hip hop doesn't originate and live and die on black aesthetics then you don't know hip hop. Everything about hip hop comes first from black culture. This is not up for debate
    4
  943. There's no specific reason to expect someone from Japan to have the same respec6 for hip hop as a Drake is the simple answer. Drake is held to a higher standard because of the way he's benefitted from the culture
    4
  944. Also my Swirlconomics video improves this as well. I have some biases with Garvey due to my experiences growing up around Garveyites but further research and correction by elders has improved this. Thanks for the useful criticism
    4
  945. You should actually watch the whole thing
    4
  946. Those are two very distinct phenomenon with completely different fundamental causes. Thats like comparing American Football and Soccer. That said if you paid attention you'd have heard me make that distinction
    4
  947. All races of men get married to non dolled up women. Black men are most definitely trying to address their needs collectively I get that some dudes act a fool on reddit and clubhouse but that's not the world.
    4
  948. ...did you not see the whole section on Andre 3000, also all those other folks you mentioned paled in comparison to their gangster counterparts and were gone by the mid 90s
    4
  949.  @pheonixangel_  sometimes there are super bizarre comments that make no sense. People legit hallucinating
    4
  950. Facts
    4
  951. You're kidding right? The second episode where I detail hid failures, his alignment to neoliberalidm, and war crimes... that's a nothing burger? Did you even watch? The first one is where I romanticized...🤣
    4
  952. Sparked it for the next wave for American activities was my intention
    4
  953. My point was historically, no black women are writing essays and what not about their desire for white men. It's been a one sided thing. Also how you present data can either be to fit a narrative (black men are 100% more likely to date outside their race) or to give you the most accurate description of a phenomenon (83% of black men marry black women). Both are true, which one gives the most accurate description of reality.
    4
  954. You're kinda proving my point. The concept of value isn't universal so implying high value to be one specific thing is bad advice
    4
  955. What race does that class tend to be?
    4
  956. But also Gun Karate and being emotionless is what made him awesome at gun Karate in the end. This is what the edgelords took away
    4
  957. BP is from the hood and went to prison
    4
  958. Whites outside of the U.S grossly overestimate how different they are from white Americans. I've talked to many black people in the UK, south Africa, and parts of Europe and they tell similar stories. That said you should just assume that I'm always talking about white Americans when I speak on white people.
    4
  959. So... we don't have any accountability in the problems of gay black people?
    4
  960. Your praise means a ton man!
    4
  961. He made a whole song about another man...
    4
  962. You'll like this one a bit more than usual
    4
  963. I got at least one more Thumbnail up my sleeve and it's a doozy😂. Its all hear for Yeagerist
    4
  964. Historical context is incredibly important, especially here.
    4
  965. Search "fight club gay" in there's like 100 other video essays on this. Also if this bothers you you should probably go ahead and unsub this probably isn't the content you're looking for.
    4
  966. What was so bad about hid Vaush video? I've heard thus numerous times with no context
    4
  967. I honestly don't know. I'll say if at any point I arrive at not wanting white people to consume my work, I'll probably just stop. I'm not so bothered now, it's just a curious thing that I didn't think about before making content.
    4
  968. This is the most ironic un self aware comment I've ever had
    4
  969. You must be new here🤣 this my shortest video in months
    4
  970. Shit... just noticed it's like 5-6 min short
    4
  971. I think the issue of black womanhood being at the bottom is related but not focal to the goal of the video. I had it in another version of script but cut it as I didn't think it'd be received well. You have to consider how wide my audience is and the vast array of responses that might have been made. If taken wrong "black women are devalued" out of my mouth can turn into "nobody likes black women". It may seem ridiculous to you, but you don't see my comments and dms. There are a lot of snakes in the weeds and I think that's something best suited for a black femme creator to focus on. As for the divestors. They get no points from me and I've made that clear for a while now. I don't care if they're tangentially addressing some black women's issues. They're right wing, homophobic, and obviously endorse racism but somehow only against black men which of course makes no sense. They can kick rocks like most black conservatives. Everything they THINK they're doing is being done better by actual black feminists. I will continue to dismiss them.
    4
  972. Finally someone caught the reference
    4
  973. Nah he did the photo in response to someone else I just added a different caption. Same joke though
    4
  974. It was before it went full nazi
    4
  975. It's a little suspicious from my perspective too. It doesn't push it AS MUCH is the most accurate take.
    4
  976. This is a common complaint. I could have thought more about how that would come off to others. For me and many black men, there is a long history of castration and genital mutilation of black male slaves that makes him a very perilous character to look to for representation. It's in the realm of nerdy Asian guy or spicy Latina.
    4
  977. You should probably be less apt to talk about leftist movements in countries you don't understand.
    4
  978. Why so?
    4
  979. When i hear agenda for "reproduction, survival" etc I wonder what you think our actual challenges to survival are exactly, cause that might explain why you think im not offering enough. (though i don't purport to offer anything other than perspective and education explicitly)
    4
  980. Yea but it was still weird to call her a terrorist.
    4
  981. You mean to tell me you think Jesus never read Marx...
    4
  982. Literally none of this is conspiracy...
    4
  983.  @purplelove3666  this is illogical because the rest of the world doesn't acknowledge being biracial as a legitimate racial distinction. You keep talking about race as if it's a real thing. It's not, thus everything you add after is nonsensical.
    4
  984. Lol this was splitting it up🤣
    4
  985. Damn how long since you watched me🥺
    4
  986. You've left 11 comments on my channel thus far (I can see). I'd say find something better to do but you're obviously fan. Thank you for your support. 🙏🏿
    4
  987. I'll look it up it's from a unlicensed beat service, I had it stuck in my head for a week editing this!
    4
  988. Various economic conditions.
    4
  989. Mostly regular people
    4
  990. Keep watching
    4
  991. They actually took out an important line where he legit says something along the lines of "I was so mad at the world and wanted to destroy it whether or not my plan would work" it's actually a complete vindication of my point that they removed that
    4
  992. Who better to be critical of from my standpoint? Who understands us better than us? Also have you seen my other stuff? Mike Tyson? Baby Boy? King Von, DMX, the Love video, two long ass love letters to Kanye. Check my catalog man
    4
  993. What does that got to do with my content? I can't control my audience bro. I made all those videos with the same love and effort as I did this one. I'm not about to cap to make black men feel like shit is fine when it's not. But I've made a ton of content analyzing the struggles of black men. If you gotta bail cause you can't take the appropriate criticism that comes with that... that's on you fam. You want me to lie and say Dave wasn't out of pocket just to make yall feel better? Is that really what yall want?
    4
  994. Dave Duerson too.
    4
  995. They push it a certain amount every day based on their opinion of your performance in the algorithm. If a thumbnail outperforms your perceived status then they push it a bit more the next day, they do this over and over until you hit a wall. The problem is that it's very random what gets taken up and what dies on the floor

  997. Did you just seriously ask what part of black culture influenced kpop!🤣
    4
  998. So surely there are large varieties of Arts and music completely uninspired by black people. But the biggest pop culture phenomenon in music right now are almost all connected to musical stylings and influences from black artists. Kpop is an especially egregious example and it shows how blind you are to black culture that you don't see it. Nobody's listening to Scandinavian metal (which came from regular metal, which came from rock and roll, which came from black people) all that much but Kendrick Lamar can do a world tour in every country and sell out stadiums.

  999. I think you have the framework backwards. The lack of knowledge and understanding that most of the world has toward black people and our experiences is why issues of race are allowed to persist.

  1016. I get that overall point but my thing is two things can be true at once. Yes of course the girl is being objectified, her objectification hinges on the juxtaposition of her whiteness against the black men behind her. If this were a group of white men the would not have been memed to the level it is because white men's bodies aren't coded in the same way.

Thank you for this humor this morning sir.

  1029. Business and socialism can easily exist with 1 basice principle. People over profit. This means 1- be in an ethical business world (no house flipping, no land lords, no pyramid schemes). 2- If you have employees treat them fairly, pay them well. 3- Pay your taxes, especially if you start caking up. Capitalism is about OWNING the means of producing things and the vast majority of small business owners are not capitalists based off that criteria alone. But if you do own the means of production (like say you're a landscaper and you own the equipment) then the ethical thing to do is offer your employees full enfranchisement in their work, possibly co-operative ownership. There's a lot of models out there. This may be something I look into in the future.
    4
  1030. I don't see both parties as evil. I tend not to operationalize evil as a real thing. Both parties are bad. One is worse and if I am to vote I gotta choose one. But the big thing here is that Cube stepped out of line even with his own folks. I don't have issues with him not trusting or believing in Biden, I have issues with him being so irresponsible that he allowed himself to be made to look foolish by Trump.
    4
  1031. You didn't watch much

  1032.  @kelvinnyaga-online9055  so now you admit it's about policing what black men do and not white supremacy, and you bring up the mythical agenda. Don't tell me its about white supremacy when you believe that Black men being gay is a form of white supremacy.

  1033. You're equating Kevin Samuels to the level of scholar? Based on what exactly? I think what we're seeing is the difference between me being a leftist and you being a conservative. Sowell is a sellout of historic proportions and Samuels is right with him. I'll elaborate more in the next video.

    4
  1036.  @janelane8982  The whole fear things sounds a lot like the Adrenechrome stuff to me. Post the link I def want to know more about this. It wouldn't surprise me if a ton of it connects to some of the same source material for Qanon's stuff. A lot of this (especially connected to some radical black spaces) is connected to old anti jew mythology.

  1042. I had 1k before the video dropped. Never guessed it would get this many views though. Plenty of them are from yall types so I appreciate the support I guess.
    4
  1043. So there's a big difference between hooks and tariq Nasheed. Nasheed's rhetoric doesn't hold up under scrutiny at all and hook's does. hooks unlike many in academia is empathetic and defensive of black men while being critical of the hows and the why's of our issues. If you've read hooks, i guess my question would be where exactly is she wrong at? You seem to be conflating patriarch with provider, leader, protector and this is exactly what I'm disagreeing with. Those roles, are not gender based by nature and while men have been socialized to play those roles in most civilizations throughout history, that's still a response to social pressure and not natural law. Today, there is even less reason to look at those roles as naturally belonging to men, especially some of those 13% Lastly, you are likely very uniuqe. Most people have never read hooks, let alone black men and especially heterosexual black men who I'm targeting with this video. So though I know Im not goign to change the world in 10 minutes I do think at least the exposure and the conversation is valuable. As men the key I HOPE we can all agree on is that we need to be talking to each other a lot more than we are and have been recently. I sincerely appreciate this discourse we're having, most videos won't be this "controversial" but i hope you stick around to keep critiquing. You might want to check out the two videos i did on black men in the movies if you haven't already.

  1049. Being born white doesn't mean your a bad person. Being born white means you inherent whiteness as a class status and thus will benefit from white supremacy on some level, and thus we need you to be anti racist in order to cancel out the systems effects

  1060. Pretty much this one---> "Or, and this FEELS more correct to me, do you think that the morbid fascination always existed as a result of the “othering” of black people by the white people who held the power both actively and passively, and in order to get anywhere black people leaned into that commodification? “If they’re going to be grudgingly fascinated anyways I may as well leverage their perception of me as less than a multidimensional person or even a human being at all”?" But to be clear, for black art, the art had already existed and been loved and enjoyed for generations by black people going back to slavery. When it found a willing and rabid white audience then the commodification aspect became more overt.

  1068. It's a complicated concept. Consider that there's no real concept of Diaspora among Europeans because Europeans are.very rarely "displaced" whereas People of African descent across the world have strained ties to their place of origination because many of them came to their new places under duress. One core tenant of pan africanism is reconnecting African people to their homelands.

  1077. Black really isn't a race either if we gonna play the semantics game lol. The data clearly indicates that they're talking about non black or white Latino/Hispanic people which by in large is not going to be Dominicans or white Spaniards. That point still stands.
    4
  1078. I had my first son at 29. It's a tricky moment. The main thing right now is to cater to mom and do your best to support her. She's going through a lot more than you can fathom physically and emotionally. I would seek social support for yourself as well as therapy cause fatherhood is a heavy burden initially and you need people to lean on. Beyond that you have to be patient with yourself and your new family and be open to change as needed cause nothing really prepares you for parenting except actually parenting

  1083. I'll have to do more research to get a better understanding. What is a better term to use to differentiate the difference in the immediate material threats to sex workers in different situations. Like how would I differentiate Dani who isn't privileged per say but was able to go.into sex work with some.agency, vs say trans teens who are put out of their homes and go into sex work as a last resort.

  1088. It stagnates their emotional development for one. Patriarchy tells us to push out children into gendered boxes and exposes them to all kinds of harm and trauma in the process. It can be as benign as forcing boys to consider their emotions as wrong or signs or weakness, or it can be as ugly as the way little girls are sexualized by adults (this happens to boys too) We tend to only think about Patriarchy as having strong male leaders but it's much more complicated
    4
  1089.  @capicityforgood258  Preparing boys for war just sounds like a hell world to me. And again, it's not very effective. Just look up the issues the army has with finding recruits cause so many men are too fat, to mentally ill, and two addicted to serve. What we are doing simply isn't working, and very few of us will ever be sent to war. Wars are not fought with soldiers all that much anyway. That's an outdated philosophy to adhere to that we need to let go. As for women. We gotta take a stand lol. women don't want to be alone just like we don't want to. If you find that a lot of women don't want "emotionally" mature men, find a woman that does. I can say from experience as a guy who struggled romantically early in life that being "emotionally" is much less of a problem than being unhealthy, broke, abusive, etc when it comes to attracting women. We as men can demand that women stop holding us to the same patriarchal standards that THEY also dont' want to be held to. It's complicated and will require work but it's possible.

  1101. Do you think bad brains being black benefitted them in the hardcore punk scene? I'm pretty sure we both know the answer to that question. With that in mind, I think we also can make some assumptions about what pissed you off about this video, and whether or not it's some hatred of white people, or that I accurately pointed out something about white supremacy that you'd rather not think about. But at least you made it through it. That's probably a good thing.

    4
  1117. What was the point that I missed, and before you answer. Did you watch my whole video?
    4
  1118. Yeah I don't get that as much. For one "allegedly" according to Daphne's friends, after her suicide they reached out numerous times and he never got back to them. Never seemed to engage at all until the last special. But more than that is that he greatly to me just positioned Daphne as the "acceptable" trans person cause she didn't shy away from transphonia and didn't expect much from him didn't require him to use Pronouns etc. I can completely believe that Chapelle was hurt. But really I found how he positioned Daphme ad a shield to be In poor taste.

  1179. Oh an you responded too. You're my most valuable type of anti fan. The type that cares more about trying to get under my skin than actually doing harm. Are you smart enough to let me get the last word or are you so ego driven that you'll keep paying me just to argue
    3
  1180. My next video corrects this a bit
    3
  1181. Stop watching
    3
  1182. I'm gonna have a whole section on this when I finally talk in full about the black manosphere
    3
  1183. In a weird way no. I like them and I've enjoyed everything they've done but when I want 90s rap I usually just return to actual 90s rap. I find myself more interested in modern stuff like Denzel Curry
    3
  1184. You know I can see how many comments you've left on my channel. You a fan homie but a t shirt.😂
    3
  1185. It should have subtitles... I know I turned them on and saw them myself. I know other creators have custom subtitles... I'm going to look into it and figure it out
    3
  1186. I'm not arguing against the nuclear family structure. I'm In a productive nuclear family structure myself. I'm arguing against the framework they present as appropriate family structure, and that this is the right or only way that black people can find liberation. Poverty rates are lower in non nuclear families but why are those non nuclear families in existence? Research says its because black fathers are often dead, in jail, or unable to economically contribute to these families, among other things. But the manosphere types insinuate that it's black women's fault and not the fault of white supremacists structures. My point is the nuclear family is not a silver bullet and the manosphere uses it as a scapegoat to promote mysogny, not that it's never a useful structure to model after.
    3
  1187. There's so much more to that dynamic though. For one WHY was I the only person in that class. There were several other heterosexual men, more black than white, in my program. But none of them were interested in studying gender and sexuality. This is common for many reasons. Part of it is because men don't enter the field, part of it is cause the study of gender kind of excludes masculine studies. Either way, the other thing to consider is would you look at it similarly if I was the only white person in an African American studies class? The bottom line is I didn't know much and I needed to listen, especially since so much if what I heard was stuff I never heard before.
    3
  1188. Both
    3
  1189. I vaguely remember this story
    3
  1190.  @abrahamu.numbers562  I truly must be dumb then... And surely you're not some weirdo who came in to throw a wild accusation towards me on a completely unrelated video with absolutely no proof or context and refusing to offer any when prompted. Very normal behavior indeed.

  1191. More than that

  1192. Signified Podcast channel

  1193. It makes sense completely, but it also shows how this whole movement is... idk scattered. I saw one (I assume) cis het black guy who did the same thing. I am all for people disengaging from the machine. It's just the overall rhetoric of it was all over the place, and the places were it really landed... we're pretty off.

    3
  1197. I'm done paying mind to them but yeah I remember sadly
    3
  1198. These are solid critiques. Not including women was Ultimately intentional for an audience purpose, but I can Def learn more about disordered eating and body acceptance.
    3
  1199. I lived dope. I'll definitely tackle it eventually.
    3
  1200. Post Malone came in selling back aesthetic to a white audience, and then after he became popular insulted rap music and has generally acted like he never wanted to be a rapper. He did what a lot of white artists do. I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually became a country singer, that seems to be the trajectory
    3
  1201. Racialization is a newer sociological concept that looks explicitly at race as a social construct as an ongoing process and ignores the concept race being anything but that. To be racialized is to be perceived and attributed a set of features and ideas. Khadija Mbowe has a video on it
    3
  1202. Too black is also not an academic

  1203. Who is Grand Royal? Edit... I didn't even say this😂. You just witnessed me talking about black people stuff and got triggered and made up something to get angry at

  1214. It's a struggle beard, that's the best I got😔
    3
  1215. There's actually research that supports this in some ways.
    3
  1216. I stated that in the beginning. Research on attractive bodies is pretty clear and traditionally Attractive men are traditionally attractive for th reasons you expect.
    3
  1217. Ima tell you, I don't know any men in successful and functional relationships that consume black manosphere content. All rhe men I know that watch that stuff got 3-4 baby mothers and bad relationships with them. There's some validity in the space as a whole but its toxic fam.
    3
  1218.  @ChannelFiend  I'm kinda shying away from talking about women and Black women ad much as possible, at least not in ways where I think other black women creators have already done it better. @shanspeare has a few videos looking at that trope as does @voicememeosforthevoid. I'll link their channels in a bit.

  1227. I'll be 40 in June

  1228. See Now what that so bad. You enjoyed yourself right. Come back in a few weeks and I'll explain why I do this lol.
    3
  1229. There's a video in the works on that take
    3
  1230. I may touch on the "black manosphere" eventually. But them dudes are annoying, I still got those guys following me around social media complaining about this or that. So idk I'll sit on it for a while.
    3
  1231. One thing to keep in mind is that actual race and coded race are not always the same. When it comes to delivering ideas and messages about race, coded race is more significant. Malek is Egyptian, but almost all online his characters have been ostensibly white men and are digested as white men from the viewer
    3
  1232. That's kinda the beautiful thing here
    3
  1233. I saw. I'm not interested in watching sorry. Best of luck though.
    3
  1234. Chat should be about the video. I honestly don't remember your question feel free to ask here.
    3
  1235. Class does not fully explain this. Class would be indicative on all those other ranknigs of income and education and would not change the outcome if gender wasn't a factor even at the highest levels. That said i agree that "it's the patriarchy' is not a useful engagement when really trying to reach certain types of men. It's again a kind of lazy anaysis.
    3
  1236. It's ok. We still have Guts
    3
  1237. The book definitely has its issues.
    3
  1238. The thing is, that term isn't really anything to joke about. And tbh I don't see how he used it and the way he explained after to be a joke he just talks on it.
    3
  1239. Lots to unpack here. Refer to my "knock first" video description for some anti racism resources. Annoyance was a keyword here. Looming at Samuel Jackson's clip sums up so much of my intent here.. Samuel Jackson's taunting of the reporter was a subtle act of resistance. Every time black folks engage with white people on race it's emotional labor. It's exhausting, annoying, and tedious, especially when it's mostly about getting a voyeuristic gaze into blackness and not coming from a genuine place of looking to understand the problem. So Sam wanted his pound of flesh. If he was to be forced into engaging in this painful discussion AGAIN all for the sake of white voyeurism, then he was not going to be the only one uncomfortable. The reporters completely understandable refusal to join him in the fire is emblematic of how black people see white Liberals and how white liberalism tends to treat black people. So while I do empathize with that unique space of the reporter, I admire Sam's willingness to hold space for himself in this situation which is something few of us get to do.

  1240. 🤷🏿‍♀️ What the hell does this have to do with this video?
    3
  1241. ...did you watch the video?

  1242. You only really support a nebula creator if you sign up through their links or watch their content. No other creators really directly benefit, BUT of course it's all connected in the end so it's up to you

  1252. Thank you for this info. I'll take it into account going forward. It's always good to be critical of historical legends. Still, it's clear Nasheeds version has no merit which was my main point.

  1253. Sometimes the shirts are purposeful, Sometimes it's just whatever they have at target

  1254. The Republican party took on an explicit anti civil rights stance in the 60s going into the 70s while the Democrats moved more left
    3
  1255. Don't know if my response didn't come through... so I'd this is a repeat my bad. 1- If you watch the end section I clearly point out that things did happen to black male slaves. My point is that it doesn't legitimize the problems Nasheed has with the gay communities. 2- I don't understand what gay people have to do with reparations or how they are somehow responsible for us not having it. Explain to me how gay people have undermined black liberation. I've seen no compelling proof of that. Also this wasn't an Analysis of Buck breaking it was. Reaction so I never intended to break down the falsehoods piece by piece. Most of the believers of this nonsense would disregard it anyway.

  1285. I think though, at least in the states, everyman" and "normal" still very much mean white guy. I think keeping the racial aspect is important for historical context and modern understanding of the trope
    3
  1286. This warms my heart
    3
  1287. I empathize with that feeling. It's valid, and I should pass. Don't forget the rage but don't let it guide your actions.
    3
  1288. Did you watch the video
    3
  1289. I'm a Bears fan first 🐻👇🏿
    3
  1290. It's a conservative ideology to think that discipline and hardworking automatically lead to success and are a sign of good character. Not saying that they're bad values but from my perspective they are overvalued
    3
  1291. "Great clicks" I do have a plan to make a BLM video though. That said "intersectional feminism" has become a boogeyman term that a lot of folks don't get. What went wrong with BLM wasn't intersectional feminism it was greed and grift.
    3
  1292. Idk if RATM has any songs where they thank the police for becoming mass murderers. The perception of Eren is purposely ambiguous. You can't blame it on stupid fans when the story clearly supports their interpretation
    3
  1293. The whole way it's addressed in 139. The way Mikasa lovingly caresses his head, he's personified by a dove comforting her in the end, they bury him in a special place that people will visit, explicitly wanted to give him a "proper" burial. "Eren what a man you are", "thank you for becoming a mass murderer" and so on. There's tons of in text evidence to support an argument that he should be seen as a tragic hero. It's not "stupid" to interpret the story this way.
    3
  1294. I think we agree.it is reductive. The movie did so much in 2 hours but the response was mostly "look at how toxic Malcom was" losing all nuance and depth from the character and relationship. And yes I do think that's because he is a black man and the media isn't very good at engaging with black masculinity with complexity.
    3
  1295. Thank you for watching! and thanks for the love Evie was great and came through in the clutch too

  1299. First off... oh shit it's Max Landis! Secondly- I think I PERSONALLY have that overall reading of the movie at it's core. My reading that I present here is what I think edgelords will take away from it. I could have emphasized that better, but as I say in the video, if you go to the comment section of other essays on this movie (check out the video I referenced for some examples as well) you'll see that many people read the movie as a film about a righteous folk hero or something. Same with There Will be Blood. I somewhere in the video that almost ALL of these movies have explicitly anti "edgelord" themes, but that's never what the edgelord sees. Third- as soon as I get the budget I'm totally going to rip off wrestling isn't wrestling for my own idea of a wrestling story I want to tell.

  1301. ...is this video about race? Was this movie about race. What an odd thing to say here. You seem to be triggered 😔

  1302. I believe that showing your face is advantageous, extra points if your good looking. But it's not necessary. That said if you don't then you REALLY need to have a good voice and good visuals

  1324. Dick Gregory changed over time, probably after shots like this.
    3
  1325. I was like "the Ques stay outta pocket even in the comment section"
    3
  1326. My bad. I didn't want to exclude black gay men, I just was emphasizing the images I remembered personally. I wanted to focus on experiences of black women specifically cause of their unique role in this. I'll find a way to return to the topic. That said if you check my other content you'll know I don't have any issues with queer people.
    3
  1327. Is it accurate to indicate him as a right wing authoritarian in your eyes? I agree that dictator maybe shouldn't have been said but my point was to implicate how seemingly leftist regimes when ruled by authoritarians can and will circle back into... problems
    3
  1328. Did you catch the pipe bomb reference. Definitely not an accident
    3
  1329. Generally speaking it would be ill advised. But in general the appropriate thing to do is just stick to the facts. The data and history around black people's treatment in America is clear cut even against Thomas Sowell truthers, so know the history and stick to that
    3
  1330. Nebula pays the most but patreon is my only predictable I prefer that.
    3
  1331. How much did Cliff cook and clean?
    3
  1332. What would that video look like? What would you hope to get from a video from me about femininity? Serious question. I'm wondering what I could say that wouldn't be better said by others
    3
  1333. It's there
    3
  1334. Id like to see this data if you have it for another project. However IDK if that's all that relevant to that point. That's a lot of extrapolation.
    3
  1335. Gonna have to explain... idk what you mean.
    3
  1336.  @St1kyFinguz  yeah... but to me almost all of "left tube" is that, myself included. It's a weird thing where we mistake our pithy takedowns as like important sociological discourse or our followings as actual political movements. We are entertainers with left leaning ideologies at best. That's why I'm making a purposeful effort to not present a ton of research or papers in my work. I'll post some papers maybe, throw in a few quote but... idk I don't want people to take my videos as a replacement for actual academic research or inquiry. I'm still figuring this part out. I'm always grateful for insightful criticism so algorithm or not, I appreciate your input.
    3
  1337. Ask youtube...🫠
    3
  1338. Nah I'll be alright
    3
  1339. What does your wife do?
    3
  1340. I promise at 1 million
    3
  1341. Lots of theory helps, but tbh I have always thought of things through a sociological lens since being a kid. This comes naturally. But look into the "classic" guys like Durkheim, Marx Gramsci, Dubois, Focault, and also modern black figures like Fanon, Pat Hill Collins, and bell hooks. They're where most of my foundation comes from.
    3
  1342. ...you may be missed my point. I said that was a good joke
    3
  1343. I still love Zeppelin personally. At least they were honest as well
    3
  1344. Yeah that hyperfocus on a specific formulation of gender that explicitly supports patriarchy is how they tell on themselves. Also thanks so much for the starting point for really thinking on pan-africanism.
    3
  1345. This is a good one I at least fucks with the humor👍🏿
    3
  1346. Generational or any type of "black buying power" based ideology is fundamentally false. Check out the last section of my black conservative video, but tldr, there is no such thing as black buying power in any way that would significantly impact black people as a whole. BUT if that was really our strategy, by that logic we should be encouraging black women to marry white men. They would inherent their wealth and resources upon death, be less likely to divorce, and have a greater impact on black children. You wanna do that or you wanna move on to another topic/strategy
    3
  1347. I'm not a Marxist either. Marx definitely had/has a cult of personality. I'm still evolving in my "leftist" ideals but the folks who believe this "documentary" are definitely social conservatives so that's who I focused on.

  1350. In this video I guess I can pull the video together and release it on my Patreon.

  1352. Samuel's was a follower of Petersoj and Sowell. But I think I see your point. I'll break Samuel's down another time tho

  1354. I feel like it's better to lace the work with the theory vs make overt theory videos. But I do have some ideas

  1355. How long will those families be able to keep their property? Wouldn't 90 million in community investment have an even better result?
    3
  1356. Nah this one too perfect

  1357. They would probably be Democrats today cause that's what Republicans were back then

  1358. What is white culture?

  1359. Check the signified podcast channel for a good discussion on voting
    3
  1360. I don't blame the Koreans as much as I do the fans but I get your point
    3
  1361. The issue isn't JUST that they have takes on trans women that I disagree with, it's that they make those takes such a focal.part od their content. The choose to keep rehashing the same extreme scenarios over and over.
    3
  1362.  @fotzegamingandmedia1840  checked her out... lol I'm not sure i agree😅. But hey it's good to know I'm making ripples out here.
    3
  1363. That was kind of the goal there. The overwhelming awfulness of the moment... but also how the two white abusers were discussing the crime of the black abuser who was in jail.
    3
  1364. Read the comments
    3
  1365. Black men have a history of genital mutilation and castration under slavery so it's a very very problematic character to be forced to connect to as an example of black men's representation in a romantic relationship
    3
  1366. Go look at my last 10 uploads and tell me which other videos are "drama channel" videos
    3
  1367. Star wrs being Divas is fine cause they are subordinate to the QB whereas running backs are autonomous by comparison. The running backs of yesterday were paragons of masculinity and the ideal American image of manhood. But I'm not saying that it's explicitly BECAUSE of race but that it has a specific racial outcome that follows a pattern.
    3
  1368. I used to... i dont as much now
    3
  1369. I tried to like Torraine but a lot of those dudes while I think they're not toxic, are needlessly antagonistic toward black women, and just do way too much "twitter" for my tastes. Remind me too much of debate bros.
    3
  1370. yeah cause Lil Nas X is considered one of the best country music singers of all time... this is not a great comparison
    3
  1371. Guess I'll have to rely in the other million people to watch...
    3
  1372. Sorry, I'll think about it
    3
  1373. How did I not mention this!
    3
  1374. That doesn't make a lot of sense. There are move black women moving up than black men but it is still a stark minority by comparison. They aren't going up and being surrounded by black women by any measure. Further while black women are more educated they still don't have more money or access to success ladders compared to black men, so what happens is that black men hold a significant power imbalance in the dating Market at that level which leads to other sets of issues. I didn't go deeper into this cause this wasn't about black gender wars stuff.

  1375. "Built different" is an idiom in hip hop and black culture that means that a person is on another level of talent.

  1380. Is that what i did? "This is all fine" is what you took away from the whole of this work?
    3
  1381. @Jbonics  all love fam I appreciate the apology and the critique. Side note- you saw Kendrick edited out "we hate po po..." from Alright 😬 You hate to see it. But again I ain't gonna judge too tough.
    3
  1382. If I told you to draw a picture of a normal man... what race would he be?
    3
  1383. It wasn't even underperforming 😭. It was the cpm. I think it was too hot for normal advertisers lol

  1384. That's not how this works. Welcome to the world of video essays

  1388.  @thedoctorthemasterandthegu7302  you didn't watch the video ans you gonna have to show me some evidence that Trans girls own all the high school track records
    3
  1389. Me too...
    3
  1390. Well that's not a rule now. But the goal isn't to get people to reclick but to get people who haven't clicked to click. They encourage it now and tbh it works well when you figure it out
    3
  1391. To transgress is to go against societal Norma and expectations
    3
  1392. Shhhhh...🤫 Yeah seems like so long ago.
    3
  1393. Random guy comments on video months later cause he's triggered and has the audacity to insinuate some level of superiority as his comment helps pay my bills and improve my channel's health
    3
  1394. What are some other major societal problems that have been solved by ignoring them. Will Covid go away if we stop talking about it? What about the war... who knew this was the secret the whole time!
    3
  1395. You
    3
  1396. No

  1397. Will never happen
    3
  1398. Finally someone gets the reference. 😁
    3
  1399. No... I see I'm gonna have to talk about this. I'll call anyone biracial want to be called by racial but this broad generalizing I see... nah not until I see more data.
    3
  1400. Was that a joke... 1 qanon "joke" tho. It was more like an observation
    3
  1401. Yeah I wish I could go back to address that. My bad there.
    3
  1402. HBCU in fighting is like cracking jokes on family, it's cool if you family. If you not...

  1405.  @ashleydavis7448  no I'm just confused at the intention of the statement. If you don't understand why I talked about actors and athletes for 10 min then I don't think I should take your criticism all that seriously
    3
  1406. Blasphemy! You from the UK?
    3
  1407. None are white, it's in the data
    3
  1408. Good job
    3
  1409. I feel like you didn't actually watch the video, and that you're mistaking the video's title for it's message. You're literally repeating the thesis of the video back.
    3
  1410. I definitely think that was part of the problem. When you look through the details.on the production it's pretty clear there.were extensive rewrites. It's hard to say who is most responsible, but considering DCU's history... I'd bet money it was Warner Brothers
    3
  1411. I did have spare thoughts on Tenet that I cut out cause I wanted the review to be under 10 minutes. It's going on the list.
    3
  1412. I'm actually thinking and starting to develop something related to this as almost a follow up. I'm a metal head on the side of being a hip hop head and I look at the fate of metal and rock over the last 20 years and I feel like something was not lost but maybe abandoned.

    3
  1417. yeah I thought hard about it. I gave fatal affair a 5 so.... Idk Im a Janelle stan and I couldn't bring myself to take it any lower lol.
    3
  1418. This is not true. This is a thing manosphere people repeat as a talking point but if you actually go through the research you show that the pay gap is very real. It's sometimes reported incorrectly or relative to certain fields but it's a very real thing.
    3
  1419. 😉
    3
  1420. I don't get it
    3
  1421. We're not arguing about the same thing here. I clearly say that black men marry at double the rate
    3
  1422. ​​​ @productioninquiries881 I think your willingness to absolve white men (and white ran media) who most definitely do talk about their sex tourism, mail order brides, and other nonsense a whole lot, in favor of focusing on black men AFTER I pointed out the same issue you're complaining about speaks volumes. You've shown your hand here...

  1426. Got my details mixed up I meant the Anita Sarkeesian backlash which I say I'm the video is really the origins of Gamer gate
    3
  1427. Did you watch the video...
    3
  1428. Some of the running back takes failed lol but the overall thesis holds up

  1430. It's not lol my bad

  1431. You'd be surprised who's been in my inbox
    3
  1432. You're trying to tell me that the vast majority of rural counties in America (let alone states like NV, NC, etc aren't predominantly white? The black man thing is a problem I agree but the difference in Trump is his rural support. That's long documented. He got them to vote like they never have
    3
  1433. They have differences but their tied together by their ideologies all being right wing, ahistorical, misogynistic, etc etc. I figured this was clear. To the outside looking in it's the same core rhetoric
    3
  1434. Probably only towards me though, not for a lot of other figures, yet.
    3
  1435. Since a kid

  1436. Depends on what you consider strong but probably
    3
  1437. Lol it was just green to us. My wife picked it out I have no clue.
    3
  1438. What do you think I missed?
    3
  1439.  @dwightquinn8568 ... did you watch the video? I was respectful but I called him a grifter and was pretty clear what i think of him and his movement. My color is black fam. ALL black folks. Peace and blessings though.
    3
  1440.  @dwightquinn8568  and he's not helping our people. He is hurting our people who are part of the lgbtq community and he knows it. His "work" is explicitly harmful to many of us and. That's why I don't rock with him. He knows exactly what he's doing.
    3
  1441. 🤣
    3
  1442. I gotta ask what it was that prompted this comment Iol
    3
  1443. Yes please list them 😕
    3
  1444. I mean not as big a factor no of course not. White audiences definitely dictate the way things work when the money is spent. But to say black women don't engage in the same fetishism is definitely off base. It's a universal problem
    3
  1445. Cause it's not their body to control
    3
  1446. Yo momma said I was sexy
    3
  1447. CC should be on
    3
  1448. You didn't watch the video...
    3
  1449. BWOOOOOOOOAAAAM! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!
    3
  1450. Sorry...
    3
  1451. The truth 😅
    3
  1452. The answer is no then. I think if you took that away from this video. You might need to ask yourself some questions.
    3
  1453. Meant to demean or be disrespectful
    3
  1454. ...I don't talk like what?
    3
  1455. So recently discovered I'm losing my hearing on side🤣 I'll be working on that
    3
  1456. You made up an argument to argue against lol, how triggered did this make you
    3
  1457. The comment is actually super helpful though. Thanks
    3
  1458. My bad
    3
  1459. Choose a main based on your affinity for that character and not based on who you heard was the beat character in the meta. By doing so you'll be forced to learn the reap game and won't be able to coast on strength of character... Something like that.
    3
  1460. Why wouldn't he be?
    3
  1461. I agree about the courts, I find the divestment stuff a problem of our own creation. Those channels have like 200k subs combined and low watch rates at that. Yall give them too much time and attention and it affects your mental wellness.
    3
  1462. So first, I didn't say anything negative about him being light skinned. You're projecting a bit there. If anything I was making light of the fact that light skinned black men don't get enough love. But maybe I should have been more sensitive to how light skinned black men are treated, so I'll hold that criticism. Your other argument I'm sorry I cant rock with. As I said in the video, the writers CLEARLY understood the concept of consent and put it on display. Had they at least acknowledged that Daffney have violated Simon in some way I probably wouldn't have made this video. But the fact that they completely disregarded that reality and made it seem like he was in the wrong for what she did.... yes that's exactly what rape culture is. Rape culture blames victims for their own abuse. You don't need an education on understanding when you're doing something to someone's body that they don't want. She looked dead in that man's eyes, saw him get uncomfortable, saw him shake his head now and mumble wait and kept going with no intention of stopping. That's an assault. Even with the show being set a long time ago, if the writers put in the effort to show Simon's consent, they could/SHOULD have been more responsible with this scene. If you don't understand or acknowledge that rape culture is a thing then I really don't have much else to say cause we're not gonna see eye to eye at all. Thanks for watching and commenting though. I don't mind constructive criticism and I'll think harder on the impact of my words going forward.
    3
  1463. You mean 🦝. This is not a slur and that's not up for debate. It's meant to be derogatory and has a specific purpose in black culture and political thought. I'll explain fully one day. Sorry if you don't like it but this is not gonna change.
    3
  1464. Thanks so much! I'm trying it's tough out here. Please help by sharing and liking the videos and look through my older stuff if you havnt yet.
    3
  1465. I'll keep this in mind.
    3
  1466. 5 heartbeats
    3
  1467. That's the firat Hamilton video I didn't label it. It's technically black "movie" breakdown
    3
  1468.  @aaa.a123  Yeah we're gonna have to agree to disagree on a few levels here.
    3
  1469. This is not taking into account the numerous barriers that have to be accounted for before you even can be eligible for a college grant. Historically the way white supremacy targets black women and black men is very different and much more lethal. I'd look into bell hooks's we real cool for more perspective on how this works.

  1471. No. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Non-judgmentally, you should try to look it up. It will be confusing but do a little research.
    3
  1472. The point was that Farrakhan took Garvey's worst traits and ran with them
    3
  1473. I had a academic hookup. Find someone in grad school they'll be able to get a copy of it
    3
  1474. Without googling, what's her name?
    3
  1475. Tell me you didn't watch the video without telling me you didn't watch the video... not even 10 min of the video, probably not even 5 before commenting lol
    3
  1476. Shout out to Noralities
    3
  1477. Max! Where you been? Are you back?
    3
  1478. How lol
    3
  1479. That's nonsense. What special laws and privileges do they have that other groups don't.
    3
  1480. I'm not sure actually. I'll need to do some digging to give an accurate assessment of whT working class white women did say pre bellum and beyond.
    3
  1481. There's like 10 other comments saying the exact opposite and even blaming the Japanese artists for "making the characters look white". But yeah I'm super wrong here...
    3
  1482. There was s joke There that got cut😥
    3
  1483. "classy black culture" is an interesting phrase
    3
  1484. I got a roster. He's working on the white rapper video
    3
  1485. 😂😂😂
    3
  1486. Yeah that's just in terms of intermarry
    3
  1487. Did you not see Farrahkahn say "Satanic Jews"... He's not doing a good job of beating the allegations
    3
  1488. The spider society system is what I was referring to
    3
  1489. Check my community page i promote small channels regularly. I don't do an official eyeball zone though I might consider that.
    3
  1490. Either. You both seem to have the same assessment
    3
  1491.  @coreyfloyd2402  sorry I'll cut it put lol I need to write my next video anyway
    3
  1492. I mean...
    3
  1493. Blasphemous
    3
  1494. Yeah I should have said he inspired the black power movement in the us. The rest is still true. I never said nobody in Pan Africannism capitalist. But the most significant figures and outcomes were very much socialist
    3
  1495. You should watch the video
    3
  1496. The video is barely about Biden and clearly talks about the fact that so many others were complicit on the crime bill Watch the video again you weren't paying attention
    3
  1497. The "protector" fail here is really under discussed. I don't even buy into that too seriously but the idea of exposing your wife like that is some Tyler Perry villain sh!t.
    3
  1498. Anyone that days Drake doesn't have bars is definitely a liar
    3
  1499. What was the first big rap song?
    3
  1500. Am I a champion of it...?
    3
  1501. Fuck that's even more confounding... Then we gotta consider like, are light skinned dudes allowed to legit be funny?
    3
  1502. Am I wrong?
    3
  1503. I read the manga
    3
  1504. Oh God... I might have to huh.
    3
  1505. You full of 💩 don't nothing about me scream white wife.
    3
  1506. Just a bad angle my hairline is strong lol. I noticed that while editing but it's all good
    3
  1507.  @ChannelODH  part 2 had been out for 2 years where have you been...
    3
  1508. Got a kimbo slice video in mind that will touch all of that
    3
  1509. I showed in the video that this is a myth. Black people are not voting Republican, the data shows this.
    2
  1510. I think your looking too deeply into that statement. Never said thar non white people can't be a part of conversations about race, or what the conversation was meant to be about. I think I explained pretty emphatically afterward that the point is that I can learn and understand and use a lot more from Owen's unique black experience than a non black person's non black experience.
    2
  1511. Sorry this will all make sense eventually and... it will keep happening until YouTube knows how to find a better way to reward content creators for the actual content and not the thumbnails
    2
  1512. It had a hole in it! I got a new one tho
    2
  1513. My bad
    2
  1514. 😔
    2
  1515. This was definitely a lapse in judgment. I do think there's some merit to the character of Deku being a progressive and more wholesome figure as Shonen anime protags go. And he is definitely coded as white by most audiences that aren't in japan, but in retrospect I'd have picked a different character
    2
  1516. Yeah that was the goal. I'm hoping to provide a perspective that isnt out there enough.
    2
  1517.  @vc1954  Nope, dead serious. Trolls World Tour sneaks in an anti colonization message. It abandons it by the end but that moment that i mention is legit
    2
  1518. Nah the man went on a speaking tour and sold t-shirts. Even if it was to witness the train wreck, recognize that's still a huge difference in what Kanye was facing.
    2
  1519. 😮‍💨 I'm so disappointed in that video. I really wish I had watched it first lol. He's usually great I promise
    2
  1520. Where did I say Joe Biden was a hero?
    2
  1521. And you put that lie in all caps too🤣
    2
  1522. Finish the video 😉
    2
  1523. There's tons of it, it's just not popular in the algorithm. Check the channels of all the people featured
    2
  1524. Oh my God...💵💵💵
    2
  1525. This is your fault
    2
  1526. I think what ur saying is true but it serves to keep people from fighting for a better world. Everyone knows things are unfair but not exactly why or how to change them. It's valuable to spread that knowledge and shouldn't be seen as "too woke for your own good". What you're really saying (whether you realize it or not) is that it's better for people to be unaware of how they're being exploited and mistreated than to fight against their exploitation.
    2
  1527. You're so welcome!
    2
  1528. He is too lol
    2
  1529. Yeah a few have pointed it out. Still sounds like nonsense but that's never stopped these folks before.
    2
  1530. At the end Nikki on some level arrives at "building a new system" but throughout they both are arguing about an essentialized framing of gender. And how it doesn't work but greatly stopping short of abandoning it all together. James was definitely the biggest culprit but Nikki was not really far from him.
    2
  1531. "He does something else"🤣🤣🤣
    2
  1532. Just go look at my 500 other vi
    2
  1533. This is a very valid argument that I plan on getting into eventually
    2
  1534. Lil bill?
    2
  1535.  @SinggaSongg  that's an apples to oranges comparison. We are not judging whether or not the people trying to cancel dave chappelle are right or wrong. I have went on record to say i dont want Chappelle canceled just to be clear. What we are pointing out is him complaining about being canceled is stupid and a distraction from the fact that he said some fucked up shit. A better comparison is that let's say you're made of steel or something. And let's say the person who tried to stab you was trying to do so cause you insulted him and his wife. Sure we all agree that him trying to stab you isn't good. But if you go on complaining forever about how this person stabbed you... like you're made of fucking steel fam get over it and maybe stop insulting people and folks wont' want to stab you. in fact it seems like the fact that you're made of steel makes you more likely to be an asshole to people you know can't hurt you...and so on. You get my point? Furthermore, now Chappelle is seemingly building his brand around this reactionary identity and people who care about that stuff are eating it up, but at the end of the day it's bullshit.
    2
  1536.  @SinggaSongg  Idk much about that, post a link or make a video about it yourself... kinda odd to come to my channel and my video to complain about my video for like 10 different comments and then suddenly ask about something completely unrelated... it's almost as if you want to distract from the conversation at hand. Cause suddenly you don't like how the conversation is going...Like a red herring or a nonsequitor logical fallacy... interesting.
    2
  1537.  @SinggaSongg  but when you say that HERE in this context then you're really just saying "I don't want YOU to talk about your issues" it's some all lives matter type shit and yes when I see that type of attempt at erasure... yeah the smarm definitely comes out
    2
  1538.  @SinggaSongg  but fam that's what it is when you do it HERE and NOW. You can do so many things to bring up the issues that you care about that you want people to pay more attention to. But what you're doing HERE and NOW is trying to TAKE the attention away from a group when they're getting it cause deep down you don't want them to have it. Otherwise you would have at a minimum led with "what about ____". But you lead with "people shouldn't cancel Dave" which is what you're really about HERE and NOW. And yeah that's some all lives matter shit. That's exactly what they do. They don't bring that up until people speak up that they don't want to speak up and if the comparison bothers you... I mean it should.
    2
  1539. It's hip hop. That's the difference. Hip hop is our artform. Golf is not. By using hid blackness and hip hop to attain fame the traditional exchange is you speak our gospel. Drake refuses that responsibility. Rewatch the end
    2
  1540. I spoil the end so yes
    2
  1541. It's soooooooo abusive, definitely not "ok" but also so impressive as a unique form of theater
    2
  1542. The data doesn't back this up
    2
  1543. I only really used one specific source here which I mention in the video. The rest is grounded theory and knowledge and deep lore.
    2
  1544. Basically where the structures of capitalism begin to breakdown and expose the systems intrinsic flaws. So for example in the early 90s with NAFTA it opened up trade and made a lit of people rich (Yaaaaay) it also changed the nature of work and made the labor of many Americans worthless (booo) 10 years later those same Americans in those steel and manufacturing towns that lost jobs are now surrounded by poverty, crime rises, mental illness rises, substance abuse rises, etc. It's complicated but that's a shorthand explanation
    2
  1545. Bruuuuuh
    2
  1546. Where you there? I feel like you had to have been there. Or maybe I was a Wu fan but I'm high school. He was supposed to be the next big thing
    2
  1547. Yo they started flipping out in the chat when that happened
    2
  1548. @djtrackmatic
    2
  1549. That's what I mean. When the ubermendch was truly superman or hulk hogan, you can't remiagine it to be D Fens, but when you have these delusions of recreating the world D Fens gives you an approximate image to attach to.
    2
  1550. Nah early on he was definitely bigger. Jordan didn't come into the league international. That took a few years. Tyson was a champion and a phenomenon after 1 year
    2
  1551. Yes
    2
  1552. Second video
    2
  1553. So what I've found is that they dropped the case so they could open it in another state. Do you have a link to a source for this?
    2
  1554. Damn yall don't really know about Ben Carson... Yooooo Ben Carson was an ICON of "Black Excellence" for a generation of millenials and Gen xers before he became a republican and a trumpet.
    2
  1555. Certain things you know as a creator have a built in audience that will click. Certain things will just be for folks like you who love my content. I'm definitely appreciative to know I have folks that are here for the whole of my content
    2
  1556. Re-upload

  1557. Biggie was pretty real.
    2
  1558. Criminally
    2
  1559. Yes
    2
  1560. Not really 😕 Saving it for later
    2
  1561. Let's also not forget that I made a whole ass video on Kesean's experience like a month ago lol. https://youtu.be/EtXPTGkuJIA
    2
  1562. I don't moderate comments like that so you're probably saying things that YouTube doesn't like
    2
  1563. If you say that the rules were to increase profit than how can you say it was a natural change. Those two things are inherently mutually exclusive. If the rules represent an outside stimulus for change then it's not natural. The west Coast offense was natural maybe due to alterations on the game over time, but everything I described here was a direct response to the passing game rules. But you are correct there will be no discord chat lol.
    2
  1564. Cause you got to make art. If I let people taking my art out of context stop me I'd never make another video
    2

    2
  1566. I think you missed my point. I agree that those immigrants had deep rich cultures. But those cultures were melted down over time to just be the most homogeneous parts. Today the average white person has no connection to those histories or cultural touch stones and that's a shame

    2
  1574. Lol I was one for like 10 years
    2
  1575. Eeeeeeh
    2
  1576. Check out the 1dime video in the description it talks about this a bit
    2
  1577. You clearly didn't watch that much of the video cause you explained my own argument back to me... but you aren't the only one so I get it.
    2
  1578.  @highbrednxtus  The part where i acknowledge that Edgelord is not a good term for the concept but i couldn't think of anything better 6:20 The part where I explain that the movies themselves do not cause the behavior literally titled in the description "Why you can't blame the movies"... 6:28
    2
  1579. Keep watching you're exactly right
    2
  1580. @djtrackmatic who's made a lot of my beats
    2
  1581. That's Legend Has it by Run the Jewels
    2
  1582. Yeah I eventually found it. They had an interesting assessment of black conservatism and how it kind flies under the radar. Thanks for bringing em to my attention.
    2
  1583. Yeeeeees! I needed someone to catch that
    2
  1584. Usually both
    2
  1585. I'm not poly and don't know a ton about poly, just brought it up as it was pertinent to this video.
    2
  1586. you mean Pusha T? He's a rapper
    2
  1587. How so?
    2
  1588.  @Solis225  that's a complex issue that wasn't really a thing when I was in school. I've talked to my professors about it since then. The main issue they bring up is the problem is that there's no easy solution and the REAL problem is that young trans athletes are not safe around cis-het men, and for youth that's a big issue considering how vulnerable Trans youth are. The main thing to consider is that to a significant level, this is a non issue. The only reason it's becoming an national issue is that it's an easy way to fuck with Trans people. That said, there have been rules in place for a while to address this. They should let those rules take hold for now. Those rules mostly address the concerns about fairness that most people say they're concerned with (they're not tho...) Beyond that I cleave to whatever Trans folks opinions are on the issue. I don't know enough to say more than to just point out that persecution of queer people is never the move.
    2
  1589. Which ones?
    2
  1590. Depending on your level of talent I think every grad student who isn't in love with the hustle of academia should have a YouTube page just as a side hustle
    2
  1591. Yeah that's what sucks about market economics lol
    2
  1592. Of course. They met brutality with brutally
    2
  1593. So I can (and tried to) acknowledge that there is a value in what these guys do at their core. The problem is all of the accompanying elements that I touch on that everyone can see. Confrontation in a less toxic headspace is simply criticism. I would LOVE if youtube essays and videos created genre of criticism and I've seen that be the case in a lot of streamer content. If it were that I would personally probably be fine, but as you allude to, it often crosses a line to different space, and the larger voices in the "leftist" streamer community are habitual line steppers in that regard. But one thing I wish was more clear at this point from that section of the video is that this is just a portion of a bigger problem with "left tube", it's the easiest to define, but the reality is the need to dunk on folks is something beyond the debate bro sphere and is kind of inherent to my issues with left tube as a whole.
    2
  1594. Yeah I blanked put a lot of Derrick Comedy stuff 😬
    2
  1595. There's a few out there
    2
  1596. There's definitely an interaction there. For a lot of these movies these older stars are bankable names, the movies are cheap cash ins, and the audience seems to be out there so they just keep chugging along.
    2
  1597. ...ooooh, got you👍🏿
    2
  1598. We good for now
    2
  1599. And also some adsense and more attention for the algorithm! I appreciate the support👍🏿
    2
  1600. It's merch
    2
  1601. You have left 9 comments on my channel. I just want to let you know I appreciate your support.
    2
  1602. Poor white people don't experience the same hardships as poor black people. You need to acknowledge how race affects reality and not ignore it. White people are taught to ignore race because the reality is ignoring race makes it easier to ignore the problems and realities caused by race.
    2
  1603. Nope, not every time. Warner is one of the worst with that
    2
  1604. Watch the edgelord video or the first manosphere video
    2
  1605.  @jayman5234  there's literally a section of the video called " why you can't blame the movies"... idk what else to say or do beyond that.
    2
  1606. I'm still struggling with the practical differences between leftists and liberals from my perspective. I get the political ideologies... but tbh (and this is something i am more than willing to walk back on once I have better info) I don't see so much tangible difference between white Liberals and white leftists as to be concerned with the label. I know this is appalling in the eyes of leftists, but that's the reality I see from the perspective of being black and left.. But I'm open to learning otherwise.

  1610. Japanese people see anime characters as Japanese. We see them as white because we all habitually see whiteness as default.
    2
  1611. It's on the side channel
    2
  1612. Show me the part where I said this...

    2
  1615. My email is in the channel. I don't review indie stuff but I could mention it If it connects to something I'm the future
    2
  1616. Lol regional bias
    2
  1617.  @ep8467  you got this idea from where? You didn't watch the whole video
    2
  1618.  @ep8467  dude will you watch the video lol. I said he didn't mention the GAY people. he tried to discredit the fact that it was an act of GAY civil rights. I will say i was corrected in that it's hard to say WHO started the riot. But Nasheed makes it seem like it wasn't an act of gay resistance and that's my main point
    2
  1619. This is pretty much my thesis. That part about not being able to form productive communities is a major issue.
    2
  1620. This is exactly why they got rid of dislikes lol, folks like you are the exact reason.
    2
  1621. Keep trying! Lol. Thanks so much
    2
  1622. He was definitely talking about sperm lol
    2
  1623. Phonte from Lil Brother probably
    2
  1624. That's kind of the point. The video argues that this media is trying to reject these archetypes but the targeted audience doesn't see it. They take it at face value
    2
  1625. Not intentional at all and I completely understand the disappointment. I was so hyper focused on the explicit black women's experience that I just lost the lead on that
    2
  1626. So let me ask you, Did you support the WGA and SAG strikes...?
    2
  1627.  @Bb-xq7gk  I watched a few minutes of it.
    2
  1628.  @Bb-xq7gk  nope hard pass
    2
  1629. I'm kinda confused at the question here. Are you asking for examples of black women in the public eye who are "submissive"? First how do you define that? Like does Michelle Obama count? Ciara? I'm not getting the line of questioning
    2
  1630. Yeah my bad
    2
  1631. 😂😂😂
    2
  1632. Kinda the thematic energy behind the script
    2
  1633. Nobody was great
    2
  1634. 😆 I couldn't have imagined this response for the video. As long as folks don't ask me to start joining on the ongoing left tube debate industrial complex I'll be good.
    2
  1635. Sure...
    2
  1636. Lol it's a sports video at heart but I appreciate you sticking through it. I wanted this to be a sports video first and I'm suffering for it too in the algo
    2
  1637. Signifyre@gmail.com
    2
  1638. "You don't even rock with Nicky like that but a lot of feminist and Def LGBTQA+ rocks with Nicky" Aaaah I see how we got here now... Carry on fam
    2
  1639. But to be clear here. THIS IS MY OPINION. I think Lauryn is overrated. I've been thought this. I think her one great album and one great group album, and one ol group album does not even qualify her for a GOAT conversation. The whole rap landscape is shaped in Nicki image. Meanwhile the women following Lauren's template (that I purposely called attention to as to TRY to promote) can barely get a blip on the radar. The fact that you'd rather call it pandering than just understand that we disagree... idk that's weird to me and it does speak to something you might need to unpack. I'm telling you outright this is my opinion. I made a whole joke in the video saying that this my opinion. Fam make a response video explaining why you disagree I will tweet it out for you. But chill on the shade on my character and insinuating that I'm pandering cause I disagree with you.
    2
  1640. It's an original remake of the beat that I had commissioned
    2
  1641.  @chibiraptor  eeeeeeeh Idk if that counts as "pretty bad" but yeah.
    2
  1642.  @chibiraptor  I'm also still trying to figure out how you can be pro self determination but anti.. them determining to do a thing you don't want them to do lol.
    2
  1643. But the big thing that I think is inarguabble which is my main support here for this video is Vaush's arguments and others being hinged on NOT recognizing that whiteness isn't real and is based on racism. Like once you start there almost everything else falls into place.
    2
  1644. Spiderman, especially the recent ones have been very wholesome
    2
  1645. It's the anime video
    2
  1646. I hit a variety of topics like this. Please check the rest on the channel and stay tuned for one you'll definitely like this weekend
    2
  1647. Coogler is a west coast guy and a real pro black dude on the low. No way he was gonna go pop music on the blackest movie of all time
    2
  1648. Yes... are you about to pull this goofy "Foundational black" nonsense?
    2
  1649. Cause Jay had the juice. Jay had the real path to continued success. Everyone that went with Dame fell off almost immediately.
    2
  1650. Kanye knew who the real winner was there.
    2
  1651. It's in the description
    2
  1652. 😔
    2
  1653. It is...
    2
  1654. CJ the X
    2
  1655. Yeah but Dragoncon is less anime focused
    2
  1656. So a signifier has a lot of meaning in storytelling, film analysis, symbology in art, and in African rhetoric a signifier is a shit talker and griot.
    2
  1657. Have you ever seen Django Unchained? There's like 5000 n.words in that movie
    2
  1658. J cole is biracial. Drake has plenty of black experiences he could speak on. He chooses not to purposely
    2
  1659. I don't know enough about advertising to give a highly confident answer. Imy best guess isthat considering how much is spent on advertising, you'd have 5o consider that it's not a strong indicator of behavior but on the shape and form of a behavior. Like if I see 100 commercial from pizza hut it might not make me buy pizza. But if on the 101st commercial I just happen to be hungry, THEN I buy the pizza. So in that case what is the real cause of the behavior?
    2
  1660. Excellent be here for part 2 in a few weeks
    2
  1661. I do think black men are victims of this stigma. But I also spent a lot of time talking about how black men uplift white women and can't stop denigrating black women. Idk how that was missed.
    2
  1662. Remember Rey before the last sequel
    2
  1663. Let's set aside the idea that physical confrontation is all that useful a tactic in 2021 cause that's a different argument. That said, if depopulation is a real goal... are we really arguing that their strategy for that is to "manipulate" black people into being gay? How does that strategy work exactly? Are you aware of the infant and maternal mortality rate for black women and children? Wouldn't those (along with many other strategies) be far more efficient for said depopulation strategy?
    2
  1664. I do sometimes. I didn'tbdo a ton of research for this one so I can post a few things eventually
    2
  1665. I love metal but mostly older stuff. I don't keep up with most new music but it's even harder with rock and metal cause they have so little commercial presence. You have to be looking for it.
    2
  1666. Weave locs 😆. Are you black? Do you know many black people with loca?
    2
  1667. This is a very valid reading lol.
    2
  1668. Next video
    2
  1669. It will hit a wall. My prescription isn't looking great so far it'll be close
    2
  1670. Awesome! Thank you!
    2
  1671. Please do
    2
  1672. Youtube game demands adjustments
    2
  1673. Also new video drops Monday
    2
  1674. 🤣 I'm still learning today lol but I'm close to hiring a full production team
    2
  1675. Help these 🥜
    2
  1676. This made my day. Thank you
    2
  1677. What is this 3 part stuff just release a whole 3 hour video at once it's completely normal
    2
  1678. Oh no... I'm a Gemini
    2
  1679. It's at the beginning
    2
  1680.  @BlueKidSwag  here's the thing. I've seen enough from Nasheed to know I don't respect his character. To me that means there's no value in talking to him on this topic. He's a snake. I'm not going to dignify his views by debating them. If I truly believe he just had a difference in perspective or something that would be different. But to me this is OBVIOUSLY for money and he knows that what he is doing.
    2
  1681. Yep
    2
  1682.  @boredom2go  did you watch the video?
    2
  1683.  @boredom2go  There's the one where he says the woman threw her severed dick on the table, there's the one where he said they have adam's apples, there's the one where he says a person had a meaty dick at the urinal. All of those jokes are based on stereotypes
    2
  1684. Demographic data. So what are your friends into, are you married, where do you live, what is your education level, do you have kids? All of these things indicate to the system what they should show you. If you are health and normal and don't like that type of content... That doesn't mean they won't send it to you in hope of getting you into that kind of content so they can capture you
    2
  1685. Im definitely a fan of supereyepatchwolf
    2
  1686. One day

  1687. Who on that list has worse bars than Missy?
    2
  1688. See my edgelord checklist
    2
  1689. 13 years. But I have big head and it literally makes my locs look shorter than they are. You can get like this in 7 probably
    2
  1690. I fixed that. It's in the description
    2
  1691. Have you watched any of my other videos? I engage with what black men feel in a lot of my videos
    2
  1692. God I hope this isn't true lol. Either way the symbolic jewels in the song don't come across in the movie. Like none of the advice comes across
    2
  1693. 🤣🤣🤣
    2
  1694. There no greater compliment you can give me than telling me you play my videos in the back while cleaning your house.
    2
  1695. We're talking late 80s very early 90s Tyson. I was there, I was a kid but I was there. Idk if Jordan was bigger until he won a championship
    2
  1696. Who did I miss?
    2
  1697. You think the Wachowski sisters didn't know they were Trans? Like had a clue? Also the original writer of the Fight club book has stated as much and is also a gay man.
    2
  1698. I'd like to see some citations on this. I've never heard either of these stories.
    2
  1699. Did you watch before commenting...
    2
  1700. Typo
    2
  1701. I first heard it from Kill Jill by Big Boi and Killer Mike
    2
  1702. 🤣🤣🤣 damn tell me how you really feel. Don't hold back on my behalf
    2
  1703. Nah they're not that good ad actually movies. More interesting as cultural artifacts
    2
  1704. You're ready my outline!
    2
  1705. There should be some There let me check
    2
  1706. I'll fix that soon
    2
  1707. 🤫
    2
  1708. Beep booo
    2
  1709. I admitted decades of propaganda? Also... what's the details on this anti population agenda again 🤔. Like do they want to kills us through food, drugs, and healthcare... or just via gay sex? Tell me about how that works exactly? How many men do you know that were straight and then turned gay cause they saw a Lil Nas X video.
    2
  1710. To be fair idk if Curry has made this argument explicitly. His acolytes have though. There's a clear dillenation between the BMS guys that are true academics and those who are just smart manosphere niggas. They all have clear anrifeminist inclinations but at least the academics tend not to have really dumb takes.
    2
  1711. I've heard. It's the cost of business
    2
  1712. Already there
    2
  1713. I have a patreon, but I probably need to figure this out cause you're not the first to want to do a one time tip
    2
  1714. Yep alluvem
    2
  1715. He's a goat just off his role there
    2
  1716. Oh please believe I LOOOVED the grey... but the joke was too easy to leave sitting there.
    2
  1717. So yes one of the actresses is Asian, however idk if that really changes the overall context or subtext of the scene.
    2
  1718. Where did I say edgelord Movies make white rampage shooters...🤔
    2
  1719. I may touch on this in a different video explicitly on black men's sexuality but yes I am well aware of the element if "castration" exhibited in these types of events.
    2
  1720. The gate keepers like the real Jedi council are definitely not a good entity at the end of the day.
    2
  1721. How did I spread a false narrative by giving my opinion and showing an example. Where's the lie?
    2
  1722. And I LOVED IT... I'm so sorry but this was the epitome of so bad its good.
    2
  1723. The barbs are a name for the toxic fanbase for the rapper Nicki Minaj
    2
  1724. Do you think it had a negative effect on white listeners?
    2
  1725. Youtube bots
    2
  1726. Ture never became a republican and never "endorsed" Regean. Find me a source for that. Surely you can back this claim up. Further your argument that he just went along with whatever was hot is completely nonsensical. Socialism was anything but hot. Ture never went mainstream politics which manh former Civil rights leaders did. He never changed up his politics at all really. He died in Ghana with barely anything to his name and had to be supported by his friends later in life.
    2
  1727. For reference on kpop https://youtu.be/j_MgbYkJkag

  1729. No self respecting rap nerd my age didn't get those bars. But also yes I was definitely an em fan
    2
  1730. Top 3 for me
    2
  1731. Lots of black creators emerging, check my community section Stay tuned cause I have lots more to share from this growing youtbe space
    2
  1732. One of my former bosses is probably the main reason I got deeper into gender studies cause I had never had a woman so directly force me into a gender performance
    2
  1733. Child actors don't always make tons of money especially back then
    2
  1734. That's a hard and complex question. I think the first thing is to model compassion. I think a lot of women don't realize how often they signal to their men that they are not a safe space for being vulnerable. It's too complicated for a comment but it comes down to showing him in the down moments that he can open up to you and letting him know you love all parts of him not just how he presents as a man.
    2
  1735.  @sonyag.coaching  it's definitely the greater issue. We're talking about men who have spent most of their lives avoiding these types of feelings. It's a long arduous road to unearthing them and I know a lot of women do it poorly cause they are just as inexperienced with it too.
    2
  1736. I probably would have ripped it in 2015 too. I think that has less to do with parentage and more to do with empathy and ceiws on art

  1737. And has time to check his alerts and respond. I must be super important... you should make a video about me!

  1744. About what,
    2
  1745. Only if you think that perception is the only thing that defines blackness
    2
  1746. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm trying to get my black leftist head on straight as I get older
    2
  1747. Crank Lucas
    2
  1748. He definitely did not lol. Saquan was being talked about as a number 1 overall pick and easily the best back in the draft. McCaffrey wasn't even the first back taken his rookie year
    2
  1749. Again, he wasn't even the first back taken in his draft. All purpose college yards do not make you a better prospect. It's clear he's the better back today. That is not in doubt but your original argument holds zero water. In terms of perception as a prospect he was not seen as Saquan's equal
    2
  1750. YES lol. The consensus was that he was the second best back. Nobody had McCaffrey number 1. I just checked 5 different draft rankings from 2017 and most had him number 2 some had him 4 and 5 with guys like Joe Mixon and Dalvin Cook ranked ahead of him. It wasn't the Jaguars being a bad team it was everyone. Go do some googles. Lol I want to do more sports content but I forget sports fans can be absolute idiots
    2
  1751. GM boards in the first round are not so dissimilar than media experts and GMs can be idiots as much as they're savants. But all of the available evidence does not support your argument outside of hindsight. You're a 49ers homer. We get it. But that's all I got for you
    2
  1752. Ima grown ass man lol. You gotta be more secure fam.
    2
  1753. Yo i just emailed you. Can we talk soon I need to tap into your research for when I spin the block on this issue. I'm literally watching your channel right now.
    2
  1754. I think with Chidimanda it's partially a misunderstanding. I ASSUME a lot of cis women misunderstand trans women and there's this reflexive need to safeguard cis women's spaces. But what they don't get is that this reflexive shielding of cis womanhood ultimately ends up being weaponized against trans women and I think it goes from 0-10 pretty quickly cause trans women have noticed before how that goes. Maybe that conflict could he solved with more conversation idk. I don't think Chidimama is a terf in the same vein of Jk, but I do think if she understood trans women better she wouldn't have said what she said.
    2
  1755. My back says yes
    2
  1756. Here probably but the difference is negligible.

  1761. Your pun there put a smile on my face frfr😅 Yeah the algorithm is... Fascinating, but also horrifying. Once I'm big enough to not care about the algorithm I'm most definitely going to talk about my journey with it. Even now as I'm growing I'm still wary because I am not sure who is finding me and if they're going to like my other work. It's...weird. Either way thank you for the time and perspective
    2
  1762. THIS I was so mad when I found this was the origin!

  1772. Im scared to even ask you to clarify this...

  1773. I wouldn't call it edgey cause the movies ethos is much less unmistakable.. edgelords can't really super impose themselves on Bale's character since he is inarguably a bad person.

    2
  1777. Did you watch the video or are you reacting to the thumbnail?
    2
  1778.  @hellobro-f4l  so there's Definitely a conversation about censorship and losing out on good art cause a portion of the fanbase doesn't get it. BUT I think there's always room for criticism and considering the smoke to Isayama's fascist fire we have to be critical here
    2
  1779. Link?
    2
  1780. I don't even know who that is but I assume they're not my folk. Sadly creators have no control over who advertises on their videos
    2
  1781. Damn I'm not sure. It's on epidemic tho
    2
  1782. Black culture is what African people from those countries had left after slavery...
    2
  1783. Foreign man in a Foreign Land and Olisunvia made black/Asian videos and there's plenty of blavk lgbtq creators that talk about lgbtq racism.
    2
  1784. All very true. The key thing fir me was that even though it was stolen, it was still demonstrably different from black pop culture at the time. It st least gave the illusion of originality instead if imitation at best and mockery at worst.
    2
  1785. They're upholding... Hegemony (no seriously)
    2
  1786. Both blackness and whiteness are modern constructions that make more sense in service of reifying a racial category and hierarchy than anything truly meaningful from a socio-cultural standpoint. Calling blackness a false construct is not some gotcha its basic theory on race. By your logic we can group black people with South Asians, native Americans, and Indians since we all share experiences with colonization. We can group west Africa with the rest of Europe since the Muslims were a common enemy. Hell today eygyptiians as dark as me can be considered ethnically "white" due to modern census data. This is a nonsensical belief system only made legitimate by white supremacys need to maintain a hierarchy facts and logic be damned.
    2
  1787. You just kind of proved my point tho. Japan and much of Europe engaged in feudalism. West Africa, North Africa, India all had massive kingdoms with warring states. So many cultures and nations have similarities, most of which are better explained by climate and geography than ethnic and cultural identities. Sure you can choose to look at the similarities that western/European nations have with each other, but my argument is that the impetus to group them together and the most salient collective identity of whiteness is to legitimize a racial hierarchy and justify the subjugation of people of color or even other now "white" people such as the Irish and the Italian.
    2
  1788. Regarding the "climate and geography" take, this is not some brain dead concept, this is an entire discipline of history and the social Sciences. I can't imagine that you haven't heard of geography and anthropology as academic disciplines. Climate and environment have as much if not more to do with the development of culture and identity. Look into a book( and I think a document series) called guns germs and steel. For example the competition you speak of among "white" cultures is greatly born from the reality of living in the north in nomadic/hunter gatherer cultures. The competition was for resources and food. That sets the stage for what culture is inclined to develop. And the point I'm making is not that said ethic competitions did not exist, just that it created white identity for the sake of "out competing" black, yellow, red, and brown humans. Everything you're saying about white people is not connected to their whiteness but their Europeaness
    2
  1789. I'm not a historian or anthropologist so my reading there is definitely surface level. But even with my modest knowledge here, I still fail to see the connections. Surely there are tons of precursors beyond geography that explain the development of gunpowder and then guns etc. But sociologically speaking what I'm getting at is what that gunpowder was eventually used for and to what end, who benefitted and what social cultural consequences resulted from it. Native Americans didn't make steel weapons cause there were no social/climate forces requiring technological advancements in warfare to the level of other nations. The Machine gun made the rapid and vast colonization of Africa possible and was developed partly for that purpose. I am sure that reading Kant and whomever else can provide greater nuance on the details there, but I can get the gist of all that from playing Metal Gear Solid or listening to hip hop. Maybe a future self will make the attempt but I'm doubtful. But for the sake of my own enrichment (I ask this genuinely) provide some directed readings to support the theory of a unified "white" identity for me to engage with. Not historical similarities which I think we've proven can be arbitrary along ethnic and racial lines, but something that promotes the idea that white people had a collective identity before western imperialism.
    2
  1790. Signifying is connected to the black tradition and artform of storytelling, joking, and boasting.
    2
  1791. I don't think Welling was definitely. She had a specific theory that she held on to even though it did not hold up over time. But as you say, unlike Nasheed she was legit trying to address the problem.

  1804. I think you're right that it's greatly about society. The thing is that American society is saturated with racial hierarchy hierarchy identity politics. So the toxic messages have an inherently racialized element to them.

  1813. Did you watch the video? I didn't say anywhere that people, even Candice Owen's are less black...
    2
  1814. I have a whole section explaining why Owen's is still black and why we need to better understand that experience
    2
  1815. Then did a whole follow up discussion clarifying https://youtu.be/hRBlziuCmP8

  1816. You'd be surprised how much this happens
    2
  1817. Yes but it's still good and it's also more of a character drama
    2
  1818. "another Eren" is a wild reach to make this argument make sense. Also you just admit that the he could have deviated from the rumbling... what is your argument here?

  1829. Of course I know this

  1830.  @kingwaffleton1774  all good
    2
  1831. I tend to come at almost everything from an intersectional lense. It's probably my main theoretical framework. I don't always call it out but of you watch a lot of my vids It's there. The thing is I often use it to examine men and black men so foe some people It's harder to recognize. To me this argument definitely engaged intersectionality to look at how the concept of work informs gender performance for men and how that intersects with race.
    2
  1832. I couldn't go that deep
    2
  1833. Thanks man and goos luck with that cause that shit dont make ANY damn sense no matter how hard i tried lol.

  1844. Salute we've all been weak
    2
  1845. I mentioned it. It kinda didn't fit the trope but I gave it a shout out.
    2
  1846.  @PomegranatePublisher  I would look to the original communist and egalitarian philosophy of the black panthers. They didn't believe in patriarchy. They explicitly protected women and allowed them to lead. They were based in community organizing, they were anti capital, etc. Had they been a bit more discerning, maybe operated a bit slower and more in secret, and not been the targets of Cia and fbi attacks who knows how far they could have gone.
    2
  1847. Nope

  1850. 1- I hope that didn't come across cause I didn't want to insinuate that 2- For the sake of the video's scope I felt like marriage stats were a strong indicator of what the dating Market looks like 3- Surely ATL/CHI don't reflect all of the black experience, but they are places with high concentrations of black folks so I think it's a good sample size. But I def get that the world might feel different in different places
    2
  1851. I've just had a few bad experiences that's all. I love incense

  1855. So ya gotta think that most of these dislikes are by folks like yourself... people who aren't the supporting audience right? But also... that's not what you said initially 😅. But at least it's logically sound. I knew this going in mind you, and yes I feel very comfortable in what I had to say here and wish better wisdom upon most of the detractors that came through on the video. My only regret is that so many dudes clearly didn't watch the video before commenting and disliking cause they are just set on this nonsensical belief system. I'm praying for us though. ALL of us, I appreciate you doing the same.
    2
  1856. Hey I'm hoping to interview you for a future project. Where is a good place to contact you?

  1864. That's not literal lol, I'm sure they will admit he's black but do everything they can to exclude his existence from their own.
    2
  1865. Collective action, political organizing. Check the pinned comment.
    2
  1866.  @thursoberwick1948  idk about all that. Intersectionality is relatively new I don't know how you're defining it to say that it leads to mass slaughter. I personally don't think any particular POLITICAL element is the key to genocide at a grand level but that's my personal view.
    2
  1867. That's a bit of a reach. By that measure all social sciencs are connected to concepts from 50-100 years ago. The basis and purpose behind intersectionality was black feminist thought and movements and that started with Crenshaw not that long ago. Sure all socioloigst read Gramsci and Durkheim and Marx, but to say they are the "roots" of intersectionality is like saying Ptolemy is the root of String Theory.
    2
  1868. It's on the main page
    2
  1869. What was it? He has only described it as exactly as most people took it but please educate me
    2
  1870. I gave my reasoning, 1- his success is huge and no rappers become that successful without a large white fanbase in hip hop. You don't do 3 billion streams as a black artist without white fans. 2- His buzz came from a Meg who's fanbase definitely is not cis black men 3- I vividly remember him being hated on by black men cause he came off as a "feminist" early in his career. I could be wrong, but it's not an implausible argument.
    2
  1871. Damn... let me see if I can fix
    2
  1872. They ALWAYS leave that part out either cause their stupid or they think we're stupid
    2
  1873. They do, that was a mistake on my part
    2
  1874.  @mannynoneya7143  I don't have much else to say unfortunately. Yall heard me talking about Kpop bands that ain't even popular anymore 😄. I'll see if something hits me that gets the pen going
    2
  1875. It's such an under the radar thing that it goes unspoken. It's not that fans literally "think" they're white, (although that's arguable) it's that they're coded white in their heads, hence when white people cosplay as the characters nobody ever says "but Deku isn't white". However (insert character here) isn't black is garunteed to be in the comments section on any black cos player whenever they cosplay a non black character.

  1876. That's Craig by Franc Mono, underground and unknown see link should be in the description

    2
  1879. I def don't want to get in him.
    2
  1880. Solid pun here! If you're interested on the last few minutes it on my patreon for free
    2
  1881. I don't disagree with this in general. There's a lot that could be gained by everyone if there were better relations between poor whites and other poor people. But that's kinda part of my final point. So many poor whites are convinced they're poor cause of us.
    2
  1882. Damn... let me get back to yoh
    2
  1883. What should lgbtq people be held accountable for🤔
    2
  1884. So the video was also about YouTube as a whole. Legal Eagle had a lot of good stuff to say about growing on YouTube and copyright but I had to cut it. It might make it to a patreon exclusive
    2
  1885. Patreon is on the channel page
    2
  1886. Because Republicans started getting overly racist in the 1960s
    2
  1887. I know!

  1889. That shouldn't be why anyone should be called a Tom

  1890. Pan Africanism is too complex and nebulous for the short description I gave it. The goal was to give a hazy image. I'll leave a full breakdown to someone else. I do think it's very different from anything Europeans could do because it hinges on the experience if the diaspora aka the common issues black people face world wide. But yes pan Africans Def do greatly oversimplified their understanding of the continent to fit their own narratives
    2
  1891. Does her homophobia somehow not reinforce patriarchy just cause she's a woman?

  1892. 24k magic was that deal tho...

  1893.  @xaviersmith1388  yes actually but I think 4:44 I'd a bit overrated
    2
  1894. Sadly February is slated for something else but I do have a "black gender wars" video half written though idk when it will drop
    2
  1895. I talked about the black manosphere for all of 5-10 min in this video, them dudes went for 4 hours 🙄. It's like 4-5 response videos in a week. Im not gonna be a content farm for them. I plan to respond eventually but its not a priority.
    2
  1896. But I gotta reply to this comment about me being condescending and blaming black men yadda yadda. 1- I don't do that 2- Kevin Samuels DEFINITELY did that and these dudes love him...🤔 This is why I'm not wasting my time or signal boosting these dudes with my presence. My audience believe it or not is predominantly black men. I avoided these dudes for a reason, grew a platform away from them for a reason. I pray all of them wellness and healing cause so many of them are hurting. Some do good work, but ima focus on what I'm doing and let them do what they've been doing.
    2
  1897. That was actually my fault. The video had a lot of tech issues and had to be rushed out without last minute quality checks
    2
  1898. Future- mask off
    2
  1899. Idk if I want to do a whole video on him. Too much negativity. Maybe when I run out of other ideas
    2
  1900. I'm intrigued. I don't have a ton of time to binge new stuff but I'll give something the classic 3 episode test.
    2
  1901. Green flag

  1904. Hip hop legends video coming in April
    2
  1905. The marriage statistic is still the best we got that's pretty definitive and clean as an indicator of dating trends
    2
  1906. My criticism isn't so much of the Cosby show but of the fact that it HAD to be a specific type of black media to gain widespread acceptance outside of black people. I do think it's lack of engagement with racism is a flaw but the point is that the absence of racism and it's upper class elements are what made it "safe" for a white audience and inadvertently made other forms of black media less viable
    2
  1907. Cosby created a new type of safe though. I get your point that something like "sanford and son" was safer for BLACK audiences cause it reflected an accepted image of black life for a black audience. Cosby created "acceptable" TV for "everyone" (ie white people) that's my point
    2
  1908. YouTube auto moderates

  1909. The same union that signed the 10 year deal they're under now? I think if you talk to players (and I have) they'll tell you theryre not happy with the union right now
    2
  1910. Nah that was just me projecting my guilt at doing the capitalism. He a real one I learn from him.
    2
  1911. Great songs, just saying in the grand scheme...
    2
  1912. I just got a big forehead
    2
  1913. Interesting... I'll have to think about this. This is kind of what we call the Socratic method, where you set up a particular argument in order to argue against it. I gotta be honest I'm managing a lot of varying forces in these types of videos. And on some level they shouldn't be easy to watch for certain people. But I'll keep this criticism in mind
    2
  1914. Do talking about my race is inherently negative?
    2
  1915. Yeah idk if he and those folks are bad, I tend to agree with them but the energy is off for me. Like frfr, idk how those dudes gave a pass to KS for all of his obvious bad takes on black men. I feel like they are scared to call out elements of the black manosphere even if they (at least based on their rhetoric). Clearly should.
    2
  1916. It's an old inside joke.
    2
  1917. I'm not talking about Delaney as an originator of pan Africannism. I'm talking about him as an originator of black nationalism

  1918. I have some ideas
    2
  1919. Tbh probably not. I'm just not interested in dealing with them
    2
  1920. Love Robocop and Starship Troopers but I honestly don't know what else he's done.
    2
  1921. The point of bringing up Fanon is that he is one of many black men of note to talk a lot about the topic. I wasn't trying to insinuate that black women don't date out and don't have angst just that they never make as big a deal out of it. I explicitly show that many black women of note also date out.
    2
  1922. Not as much as the joker but. I'd say it appeals to the same overall themes of misanthropic views, senseless violence, and indifference/hatred toward society
    2
  1923. Not by accident
    2
  1924. The description
    2
  1925. https://www.patreon.com/fdsignifier
    2
  1926. Had to throw shade at the rest of the NFC North
    2
  1927. "Long Live Nu- Metal"
    2
  1928. Of course not, where did you get that from
    2
  1929. Youtube blurring copyright stuff
    2
  1930. Right now... idk man I haven't watched since covid. It's been... idk wrong to me. Bout to catch up on this AEW from Wednesday tho. For the last few years Pentagon Jr. That dude different. All time Jericho.
    2
  1931. That's from Mr. Robot
    2
  1932.  @dwaynewhite1669  so if you're hearing me right on the video man... neither. One of the core arguments of the video is that media does not really influence society and that society influences media.
    2
  1933.  @dwaynewhite1669  there's a section literally labeled "Why you can't blame the movies". I state the point at 10:54 I understand if I lost you I guess that's on me as the essayist to make the point more clear but... idk🤷🏿‍♂️
    2
  1934. That's a pretty strong binary. So if at the end i said im boycotting watching football i'd not be a sellout? Seems a bit overly simplistic and opens us up to a lot of difficult and hard to make sense of decisions.
    2
  1935. You see how many mental loops you have to go through to absolve Kendrick (not to mention every other black entertainer, pro athlete, coach, entertainer, etc) of the same standard you want to hold me to? Uncle Sam got Kendrick but not me? I dont pay taxes? I don't need a house a car 40 acres and a mule a piano a guitar? Did Kendrick HAVE to do a superbowl show? He wasnt under contract from hefore he signed a new one this year after Kaep, after all of this surely kniwing everything i know. He could have just went on tour and made all the money he needs. He could drop the damn album he been teasing forever. You give him a pass cause you think he deserves it, which is fine, but it undermines your criticism of me and shows why this line of policing dudes like this is a waste if time. Then you have to say it's me not wanting to upset my white audience when (if you go back and watch the video) I clearly say I'm not boycotting cause I love football and i want to watch football and that it's up to white people to be the tip of the spear. It's not my responsibility to punish myself for this issue that i barely contrivute to. I think that you just don't rock with me individually, which is fine, but your criticism uncompelling. Either way I wish you the best fam. I'm happy you at least got something out of the message even if you don't rock with the messenger.
    2
  1936. Why do you think this is what I meant when it's not what I said?
    2
  1937. 🤣🤣🤣 This is what I wake up to... Idk how I'm gonna make it as the channel gets bigger. Yall are wild!
    2
  1938. Til I find the one!
    2
  1939. The Head
    2
  1940. I will keep in mind to cite a bit more going forward especially to black women scholars
    2
  1941. I like a lot od the new rappers, I'm just old. There's no saving me
    2
  1942. I almost put him in the bad haircut section lol
    2
  1943. It's tough, I think so many folks are hurt It's hard to have reasonable conversations. It's like the Kendrick line "which community think they the only ones relevant"
    2
  1944. No one gets hormones or surgery before 18...
    2
  1945. It's definitely gross, doesn't mean it's not true. Like I said it's not an intentional thing, it's just how the system is rigged.
    2
  1946. Did you even watch the video 🙄
    2
  1947. Elaborate. What makes music not art vs creative content. 🤔
    2
  1948. He made the correct choice. The better choice would likely be to not ask the question
    2
  1949. Still less than what he probably earned or would have earned in an earlier era
    2
  1950. I'll answer that in the next video
    2
  1951. Again you're not engaging with the entirety of the argument. You're ignoring the paradigm I purposely set up between Sidney Potier and Denzel Washington. You're ignoring(or genuinely ignorant) to the history of biracial people being promoted as icons of blackness at the expense of more robust representation of blackness mainly because biracial black people tend to be more accepted and less offensive to white sensibilities. You skipped all of the arguments to jump to your own conclusion because these arguments made you uncomfortable. I never said that the Rock wasn't black enough I said he was never meant to represent ME. Why should I not agitate for representation that actually connects to me? Who are you to tell me that the Rock, a black man who puts so much effort into NOT representing blackness should be good enough for me?
    2
  1952. I'll think about this one.
    2
  1953. No it's a part of optimizing the videos reach. It's an industry thing
    2
  1954. This is why black folks don't rock with Republicans. You all really do think we're dumb. It's astounding.
    2
  1955. Interesting deep lore there. I'll look this up if I return to this topic.
    2
  1956. Just Google it there's a million papers and videos.
    2
  1957. 4th probably
    2
  1958. They've tried🤣🤣🤣
    2
  1959. Black culture is a byproduct of white culture aka white supremacy. It is what black Americans have cobbled together from the ravages of the experience we've had in this country.
    2
  1960. Check my bo burnham video
    2
  1961. Who did I defend?
    2
  1962. Still conservatives
    2
  1963. This was my first attempt at this style of video. I think I've improved since then, stick around for me
    2
  1964. Big Joel
    2
  1965. Or you could Google before you comment...
    2
  1966. I receive this frfr, I've had a week already and it's Tuesday!
    2
  1967. 99 percent of your fans don't exist >
    2
  1968. Is this a complaint 🤔
    2
  1969. That's definitely on the menu
    2
  1970. Nah it was the same one
    2
  1971. Holy 💩 you mentioned Thomas Sowell and called him great😬. You probably won't like my content for very long. But if you care to understand why your arguments don't hold up feel free to continue to watch.
    2
  1972. Is that what I said? This comment is also hilarious.
    2
  1973. Get involved and you'll feel better
    2
  1974. There's truth to this, but if we are going to be critical of the depth of the issue we can't exclude race. The passive desire to minimize how intrinsically race is connected to class emblematic of how effective white supremacy is and tbh makes a lot of white leftists untrustworthy.
    2
  1975. Tbh that video is a long time coming lol
    2
  1976. Check out black media Breakdown #3. The audio is not the best but it tackles this issue more
    2
  1977. Nah we need more black essayists in the game! Jump in the pool
    2
  1978. Yeah Idk what I was on with that one
    2
  1979. They were popular with everyone, but they were uniquely popular I'm white circles unlike many other acts at the time
    2
  1980. Yeah, but some things don't quite translate to film. Classic life and song tho
    2
  1981. This is not supported by facts
    2
  1982. To be clear the townhomes aren't built yet so maybe the won't be cookie cutter
    2
  1983. I work to hard on these joints to let the algorithm short change me lol
    2
  1984. Blade
    2
  1985. Impact? But also Tupac is overrated so... maybe
    2
  1986. That's the thing they just kind of say "man lead" and then leave it at that. They don't bother to qualify it or examine all the different cultural practices in Africa cause they don't fit the narrative, and the narrative is what matters. I'm also starting to wonder just about the educational/intellectual capacity of some of the most ardent followers. That's an ugly though to get into but just looking at a portion of the negative comments makes me wonder if part of the problem is that real research and discernment of fact from fiction for some of these guys us just not possible.
    2
  1987. 2-3 weeks
    2
  1988. I have a video where I analyze other people's essays a bit from late last year
    2
  1989. I spoiled it
    2
  1990. Idk either it's a really amazing satire if she's not for real
    2
  1991. I legit been thinking about writing a book... idk the black male studies movement is too in bed with the black manosphere so I'm keeping my distance but there's a lot of value to the field and it NEEDS to grow. But I also am just not driven to surround myself with that type of energy and work to do that well... we'll see.
    2
  1992. My bad, I was still learning a lot h
    2
  1993. A decent amount. I was a senior in college. But not a ton
    2
  1994. Yeah... sorry boyt that this was my first video. Although I don't know I'd I ever turned it off. I kinda suck at the technical side
    2
  1995. They're both "free thinkers"
    2
  1996. Cause his argument isn't backed by data.
    2
  1997. Like you point out how black men's percentage of marrying out tripped... And black women's QUADRUPLED. and yet it's still insignificant all together. What is it I'm being charged with here?
    2
  1998. Yeah I saw it, made me sick it's so fricken good!
    2
  1999. Was completely unaware of this thanks for educating me
    2
  2000. Ab ort ing
    2
  2001. Yes
    2
  2002. Next video
    2
  2003. You're being facetious... but not wholly inaccurate lol
    2
  2004. Takeover Jay Z, by way of 5 to 1 by the Doors
    2
  2005. I'd have to go back and watch it. I wasn't much of a fan and I wasn't very astute on feminist theories at the time. My wife liked them well enough and wasn't put off by it and she's usually sensitive to those things so idk. Tbh I doubt I ever cover hunger games though, maybe if other ideas dry up.
    2
  2006. The worst thing about click baity titles are the commenters who come typing whole essays without watching or digesting the video but that's the game.
    2
  2007. Also how the hell you name the most basic figures in black history that my 8 year old is learning about in 3rd grade 🤣
    2
  2008. I KNOW😔 My bad I should have caught that
    2
  2009. It's on the list
    2
  2010. Did you watch the video?
    2
  2011. I didn't call Asante ahistorical or a hotep. And there's no official definition for thr term hotep which is kind of the problem is point out early in the video. So your claim that it requires historical analysis is your claim. Maybe you mean afrocentrist, in that regard I agree but I don't think afrocentrist and hoteps are the same. It doesn't feel like you tried very hard to understand my video 😕
    2
  2012. I never finished the whole series, but i do know what you say to be true about the show and the character as a whole. However, at that point in his arch he was very much in an "edgelord" phase and sadly it wasn't until he had already done significant harm that he broke out of it. i think it's a great deconstruction overall.
    2
  2013. Thank you for the love! Be back soon for more I'm hoping to drop two videos by the end of next week. Like and share please for the algorithm love.
    2
  2014. I think part of the problem is this group has been taught a very false view of reality to even think that "angry white man" means the same if another race was substituted there. That population has been set up to fail but not calling out the reality is not a better strategy
    2
  2015. It's the way racism works here vs south Africa
    2
  2016. No that's PF Jung
    2
  2017.  @Davidweedlove  that's so true and so surreal. I'm definitely stealing this for the follow up video
    2
  2018. While this is true, I've heard similarly ridiculous things about the nation's beliefs directly from them my whole life. The one picture of a flying saucer came straight from an old copy of the Final Call. Even the name "Final Call" I'd in reference to a belief in Aliens and the "Mother Ship".
    2
  2019. Wait til I get my studio done
    2
  2020. Doesn't mean he did miss a ton of things
    2
  2021. The rest is for free on my patreon
    2
  2022. It is
    2
  2023. Part of the yt game is trying to optimize thumbnail/tittle combinations for the algorithm
    2
  2024. But name a real white rockstar that could do a Superbowl halftime show in the next 5 years?
    2
  2025. White is a class status and form of property. Critical race theory talks about this
    2
  2026.  @dwightquinn8568  no I meant watched my video. Otherwise you'd have seen my true colors up front
    2
  2027. Yeah I see. I'm gonna give it a shot now I thought it dlopped when I made this
    2
  2028. I doubt I'll ever do a full Jordan Peterson video. Here's a good breakdown that reflects most of my issues with him. https://youtu.be/4LqZdkkBDas
    2
  2029.  @capicityforgood258  it's always good to learn no matter the situation. We won't be going to war with China if you ask me. There may be conflict but any war with China would be some type of cold/proxy war and would not incur many troops on the ground. Capitalism loves wars but only small easily controlled war. War between us and China would be cataclysmic on a global economic scale and neither of us would let that happen.
    2
  2030. Your response is probably being aut moderated by YouTube. I don't hide response lol eat mean comments for breakfast 🤣
    2
  2031. It's a really useful framework for analyzing a lot of things. Pop Culture, modern politics, dating, it's great
    2
  2032. Thanks for commenting
    2
  2033. It was lil boosie. Yeah that's unfortunately a thing.
    2
  2034. 1 million
    2
  2035. Youtube bots look at videos to make copyright claims
    2
  2036. 🤣
    2
  2037. Facts
    2
  2038. It's about a incredibly charismatic yet misanthropic edgey white man driven by an internal sense of self righteousness to do ugly and violent things in the name of his ideals. While the character is demonstrably awful we are drawn to idolize and admire him and so on. It's not Boondock Saints but... it's in there
    2
  2039. We don't control adds. The ads you get us more about who's willing to pay money to show you an ad. Conservative corporations are always buying ad space on leftist content
    2
  2040. What's a black child?
    2
  2041. I love this love, it was scary showing my face and... fuck my HOUSE! LOL but I'm happy people appreciate my work. And this is def a product of grad school training (peep the books over my shoulder if you want a preview of part two)
    2
  2042. Cause there's no proof he's a predator. There's not even an accusation that I'm aware of. He's been weird but it's all been rumors.
    2
  2043. The difference I think is between influence and full on copying. Limp Bizkit rapped but it was distinctly different to what rap sounded like at the time. Now the music is no different. There's no semblance of a sound that is unique to whiteness.
    2
  2044. My videos tend to reach far out of the leftist yt spaces and some folks aren't fans. Most creators I know read plenty theory
    2
  2045. Most def just shout out the channel!
    2
  2046. He sadly passed last month😔
    2
  2047. This video tackles a lot of topics, and it's relatively old so I'm at a loss where your interpretation stems from. Feel free to quote or provide a timestamp. At most I might have said that non black people can't be counted on to tell our stories properly. Not that black people should only create stories about racism. Please provide some textual evidence for that interpretation.
    2
  2048. What about this video made you ask me this question. What did you misinterpret and what is that misinterpretation rooted in. Or if it's not based on the video (which is my pocket theory) what insecurity drove you to ask this question. What about your own writing or interests made you feel like that question was needed?
    2
  2049. I think it's different once the medium has left the mainstream. Now it's purely for the love Im sure
    2
  2050.  @oxtheunlikelycontemplator2682  I would argue that having more credits isn't a mark of rank in the hierarchy. Denzel does leas.movies because he commands more power and control. He plays top role, gets top billing, etc. If Denzel is in a movie, its a "Denzel" movie. Few actors have that powe in Hollywood, Dicaprio, Tom Hanks, Cruise, Denzel, and maybe a few more. Sam ain't on that list.
    2
  2051. Picked it up from a Walmart the day before cause I ran out of black shirts.
    2
  2052. This is what I hoped would come across. J think Amercian men (possibly even worldwide) of all races, who maybe don't easily fit into the masculine ideal form a type of misanthropic fantasy self that lends greatly to the celebration of edgelord themes. This wouldn't be so bad if 1- we didn't have the capacity to do so much damage in this phase and 2- some of us don't ever grow out of it.
    2
  2053. I couldn't do anything better than Intelexual media's video on it here https://youtu.be/touhaV1tvBw
    2
  2054. Finally someone caught it!
    2
  2055. Not the same kind, but I'll be returning to that topic soon
    2
  2056. Project 2025 says otherwise
    2
  2057. You didn't answer his question lol. I guess the video has caught the attention of Kanye's very normal fans
    2
  2058. Thanks so much for this heads up! Praying senpai notices me 🙏. Pose is one of a few shows that I keep saying I'm gonna watch but don't get around to, and now ironically part of my media consumption is dependent on whether or not I can make a video on it🤪 But as I was making this I thought to get back around to it. I saw Paris is Burning for a class and have been a fan of the underground vogue scene ever since. Free tho thanks for being a fan!
    2
  2059. These are valid criticisms. Most of these I don't think we'd disagree on in term of how cultures develop, in group outgroup dynamics, but I can only get so granular and considering the audience I'm painting in broad strokes.
    2
  2060. I'll probably try to briefly engage these in part 2.
    2
  2061. Stay skeptical. Keep your discernment it's important
    2
  2062. He's an example of a fake conservative...
    2
  2063. Never heard anything bad about Arian, never arrested, not issues with women. Idk what have you seen.
    2
  2064. No I meant to insinuate it was bery traditional. Mel has always been conservative
    2
  2065. You know that was just the lighting. Idk what caused that. Maybe the smoke from the incense and I didn't use all my lights. Not sure. That won't be the set up normally
    2
  2066. If you can't think of any black role models that's on you.
    2
  2067. My oldest video is about Hamilton
    2
  2068. Low key = Essentially
    2
  2069. I got a few elders that are gonna be on my phone line soon I bet
    2
  2070. Probably Goliath but I love all their shit up until the breakup
    2
  2071. The original recording for this was over 2 hours long... I'll probably revisit the topic one day.
    2
  2072. Yeah... you might want to read more bell hooks if you think fatherless homes cause in school suspensions.
    2
  2073.  @b.m5257  do biracial people have a whole different cultute? In America... What ate some artifacts of mixed or biracial culture for those mixed with African Americans?
    2
  2074.  @b.m5257  but none of those things are explicitly "biracial". That's kinda why... idk ima make a video about it in a few weeks.
    2
  2075. Damn... I fucked that all up
    2
  2076. Cue curb your enthusiasm music🤣🤣🤣
    2
  2077. If you want to see me finish that thought it's on the patreon for free
    2
  2078. Read Racism Without Racist by Eduardo Bonilla Silva
    2
  2079. Yeah that's my mistake. However for the context of the scene they are "coded" White in their exploitation of Lawrence's body.
    2
  2080. The Atlantic Slave trade was bad.
    2
  2081. I have a whole video planned on this
    2
  2082. N7 day release is a great idea...
    2
  2083. Ehhhhh I think it's about 60-40 like vs dislike
    2
  2084. Watch my anime video next
    2
  2085. "Endorsement"
    2
  2086. Then who runs the ball...
    2
  2087. 👀 will look into it
    2
  2088. I know about filthy frank. That's such an interesting piece of internet lore
    2
  2089. I could have spent more time on the complexities of Garvey, but no lies were told. I think we could all benefit from Garvey being less prominent in black political thought.
    2
  2090. I hurt so bad with this one. Our icons aren't aging well
    2
  2091. It'll be back
    2
  2092. ... watch the video before commenting
    2
  2093. @Keiron Augustin look up the work of Micheal Kimmel
    2
  2094.  @bcw1313  so in terms of the extremes of these types, economics is not as huge a factor as you think, at least in terms of their personal SES. That said, I definitely see this problem to be partially explained by alienation and late capitalism, but a video can only be so long, and this one in particular was hard enough to pull into something resembling a cohesive thought
    2
  2095.  @bcw1313  I was only speaking to the extreme cases of the spree shooters in terms of ses not mattering much. As for the general pull of this red pill/alt right rhetoric, to me it comes down to the theory I mentioned, aggrieved entitlement. Look up the work of Micheal Kimmel. I also wrote a full thesis on this that I wouldn't mind sharing once i defend in a few months.
    2
  2096. "Part 1" is a good way to tank a video lol. I'll probably add part 1 after part 2 comes out
    2
  2097. Pretty sure there's a chapter there you can click on
    2
  2098. You liked your own comment
    2
  2099. I don't think we disagree
    2
  2100. Nationality =/= race
    2
  2101. I've tried to write that video but it's not coming together properly. I'll do it one day but idk i havent found the words that im confident in to look into that yet.
    2
  2102. ...what?
    2
  2103. It was more about how he's got a history of doing extreme things to play a role.
    2
  2104. I didn't fall for the CIA Psyops, and I'm not so petty as to need to "clap back" on tik Tok at people actively being bombed.
    2
  2105. I get you here. From my perspective it's a significant point of concern that black men's representation involves a black man that has been castrated. The castration of black men is tied to all kinds of racist tropes historically going back to slavery, so pointing that out as problem wasnt to insinuate that him not having a penis was the issue but that he was a literal castration victim and that pointing to it as good representation of black men has a ton of baggage. But I sincerely apologize for how that came off from your standpoint. I should have considered a different way to get the point across. That was definitely not my intention.
    2
  2106. I always appreciate your wisdom here even when we aren't completely eye to eye
    2
  2107. Y'all never tell me how tho. And I feel for y'all with that
    2
  2108. Kavernacle
    2
  2109. No, watch anyway though it's good for both of us
    2
  2110. It still kinda is. I don't think I depict the gatekeepers as wholly a good thing here.

  2111. @NotFunny ButFunny  The fact that you live chatted through the whole video is appreciated as comments usually help the algorithm. But it's also an indicator that you weren't really listening and were mostly just looking for nits to pick... and by your own admission unless I'm miss reading you, didn't finish the video either. I'm not gonna go through all your statements here cause i don't have the energy but I'll REITERATED a few points that may not have registered. 1- Dave BARELY mentioned black gay people and didn't mention black trans people at all. That kills any argument that he was arguing about lgbtq racism cause he left out the main victims of that racism ESPECIALLY black trans people. 2- Dababy beating up a guy was not brought up in the show. You are moving the goal post to take away from the fact that Chappelle told a HALF TRUTH to make a point seem stronger than it was. 3. In fact most of YOUR points here are not made by Dave in the show which I did watchTWICE in preparation for this video. You putting words in his mouth that he didn't speak 4. Look it up, Daphne's friends didn't hear from her at all. Her family supports Dave, her friends do not. 5. Dave says that he called Daphne to open for him and the way he talks about it that was their first conversation frfr. She opened for him and the killed herself a week later. He didn't say he had a long standing relationship with her or actually got around to giving her pointers...did YOU watch the whole show?

  2119. Can't wait to see the video you make about that topic.

  2120. All love fam. My point is that having an impact and making money aren't the same thing and that many people have made an impact without making money and many have made money without making an impact

    2
  2128. Same thing to me really
    2
  2129. Ahhh I forgot to repost it...
    2
  2130. Link the evidence you speak of
    2
  2131.  @hungk69  Well most tropes are "pointless" and exist mostly for youtubers and blogers to make content around. Few have any real importance behind them than cool observations. The politics in the last part is meant to lead you into the follow up video about Edgelord movies. You should check that one out if you havent' already.
    2
  2132. Cause social media and general media has ruined our image of black men... possibly also dating apps I'm told
    2
  2133. This is a pocket theory I have as well
    2
  2134. I force puns all in my videos... this one was completely on accident 🤣
    2
  2135. Bad habit really
    2
  2136. What did I miss...
    2
  2137. Yes but we would call it genocide.

  2138. The Nazis called themselves socialists 🫨😯😮😲

  2139. Sorry I gotta get down a good 25 pounds

  2140. It's a book called angry white men by Micheal Kimmel
    2
  2141. This sounds interesting. I'm "new" to the left as an... activity, if that makes sense. My exposure to the left via the internet is mixed at best. I don't know what I don't know. Hit me with some resources if you got em

  2146. I know Irsmi
    2
  2147. I appreciate his overall presence as a black intellectual and I think we're aligned 80% of the time
    2
  2148. Which ones?
    1
  2149. I didn't quite say that lol. Im making a very different point
    1
  2150. Yes
    1
  2151. The team was random and as talented as it was, it has barely lost ANY of that talent and before him and after him they've been mid at best and trash this year
    1
  2152. ...urgency for what exactly? I think you're overestimating the capacity for change that can happen in YouTube video.
    1
  2153.  @GoSuMonSteR  please.make sure you're here for my next video I think you'll appreciate it and I want to see if you think I struck a good balance.

  2154. She decided to leave the platform

  2155. Race is definitely not only phenotypic
    1
  2156. See the pinned comment
    1
  2157. Yes
    1
  2158. Did you enjoy the video?
    1
  2159. thank you, don't sleep on click bait. It works
    1
  2160. It's coming next week
    1
  2161. wow... how did i not think of this
    1
  2162. Dewey... something. You probably don't wanna look him up. Things got bad with him if I'm not mistaken
    1
  2163. The most watched news network is Fox News
    1
  2164. But none of them get watched as much as fox news. Your whole point is invalid and proof that conservatives are misinformed
    1
  2165. "Low key" 🤷🏿‍♂️
    1
  2166. ... You mean babies born in the last four years?
    1
  2167. Trolls World Tour had a surprisingly poignant message on hegemony and systemic racism
    1
  2168. The main character girl literally had a existential crisis as she's first told about the colonial crimes of her ancestors by the obviously black coded trolls
    1
  2169. It's already on the channel
    1
  2170. A lot of truth here.
    1
  2171. For the record I love that movie.
    1
  2172. I got it from a hot topic like 10 years ago
    1
  2173. He didn't before MF DOOM until AFTER Canibus had his moment tho. And it's not so much that Canibus influenced DOOM it's that he altered the frame for a weird and out there hip hop personality to be mainstream at a high level
    1
  2174. What "good" does it serve to not challenge this injustice?
    1
  2175. It was more a joke about how he's everywhere not a commentary on his music
    1
  2176. I barely mentioned the hotsauce...
    1
  2177. I think the rock and vin diesel are purposely avoiding taking on roles as black characters as opposed to being excluded.
    1
  2178. This a lot of projection fam... I got illmatic tattooed on my arm I'm well aware of the reference. In the context of a film it comes off silly
    1
  2179. Oh wait you used the term "immigrant" unironically neveemind just act like I didn't respond.
    1
  2180. Mine too.
    1
  2181. Did you watch the video?
    1
  2182.  @thatwasprettyneat  Thr Joker in general is an edgelord character because he espouses anti social beliefs about society as a whole and is admired/celebrated for it. The Dark Knights Joker is "more" edgey that Joaquin's Joker but both made the same message pretty clear
    1
  2183. Nah he didn't start doing that til years after Kanye did
    1
  2184. No I loved it. Powerful stuff.
    1
  2185. Natural Born Killers
    1
  2186. I think the concept of misandry is complex. When people hear misandry they think incels... and that's true. But a better way to consider it is what intalk about in this video. But that's the challenge, separating the incrls from the men truly seeking liberation.
    1
  2187. Oprah is known as an authoritarian inside of her organization. She's also a cult of personality with more than a few moments where she had doubled down on bad moves and bad takes cause she doesn't want to apologize.
    1
  2188. Same overall concept
    1
  2189. No clue tbh. Probably a remnant from Carny speak
    1
  2190. You mean the one song from the Judd Apatow weed movie that I clearly mentioned... yes I am aware lol
    1
  2191. "Like the rest of us"...

  2200. Folks be gone so soon though. I made this right after Chadwick died
    1
  2201. Idk if you were alive when the crow came out but all I can remember is the edgy boys it created in my high school and how most of them are Trump voters now...
    1
  2202. Welcome to the club fam, you been missing out. Run through my catalog and some of my folks. There's a ton of good stuff for you on here
    1
  2203. Obama isn't a woman. Further all of this is a direct response to Obama. Trump activated an angry populous that resents the fact that Obama was ever president. None of these voters in rural areas ever voted this much before Trump and they will likely disappear after he's gone
    1
  2204. John Henry wasn't real
    1
  2205. R Kelly was huge in the new Jack Swing sound you're waaaaay off base
    1
  2206. It was more due to this epic edgelord speech. I never finished the show but I recall that he gets his mind right
    1
  2207. This too I guess
    1
  2208. That was a throw away parting shot. I haven't seen it in so long I'm not sure how it fits in really
    1
  2209. Do you think prices wouldn't have skyrocketed under a republican?
    1
  2210. I think we have a long way to sell anything that isn't black capitalism to a lot if us.
    1
  2211. ...did you watch this video?
    1
  2212. That's not even my hypothesis 🤣🤣🤣 bit yeah I didn't know he had some color in him several people pointed that out. Either way I don't see how you don't see a resemblance
    1
  2213. Is that what I said?
    1
  2214. And you're correct in my book
    1
  2215. Slang Editorial >
    1
  2216. I tried to make it clear that I know that these movies aren't TRYING to be edgelord movies. The problem is that these movies fail to shield themselves from a pure edgelord reading. They provide enough meat for the edgelord interpretation, they still frame and imagine these characters on the coolest and most appealing imagery. You can't say Taxi Drive is all those things but then give him a cool jacket and haircut and have him in cool action sequences. Same for Joker, Matrix, John Wick, etc
    1
  2217. Check description
    1
  2218. Did you watch the video?
    1
  2219. it's in the description
    1
  2220. Is that out yet? When is it coming?
    1
  2221. Only cause they copyright flagged it lol
    1
  2222. We've been taught wrong this whole time and it's wild how effective it's been
    1
  2223. Who? I couldn't find who your talking about
    1
  2224. Yes. Google it
    1
  2225. "adopted" is not what I would call how black American culture developed lol. More like forced to survive
    1
  2226. If by hip hop you're talking about graffiti and breakdancing, of course you should be speaking to the influence of Puerto Rican people. But we're talking specifically about the music here for the entire video. Rap music is born from black DJs rapping over disco break beats. That's the topic at hand. You're basically bringing things.up to be mad about that aren't even meant to be discussed in the video.
    1
  2227.  @boogieap3617  Broey De Schanel
    1
  2228. That's true too. I'm not sure if it just happened separately or if it was coopted
    1
  2229. I don't dislike the Matrix. The 2nd and 3rd movies aren't as good but I don't dislike them
    1
  2230. Where does it start?
    1
  2231. I'm not working with a sophisticated set up. With 2 kids in the house there's no telling unfortunately. I'm working on it tho. Wesley will definitely get a retrospective one day
    1
  2232. "Not looking at the surrounding context" is kind of its own self own as well...
    1
  2233. Ooooor.... And just hear me out. You've read way to deep into that statement and extrapolated meaning that isn't there. In fact...(just a guess) maybe you see black men as physically superior and that doesn't sit well with you so you have confirmation bias in seeing that ideology where it doesn't exist. Maybe just maaaaaaybe I was listing stereotypical traits of black leading men in Hollywood and not black men in general. And when I said strongly black features I was mostly talking about lips and noses and hair...
    1
  2234. It's on the channel page
    1
  2235. I haven't read that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. It looks like something I should def read
    1
  2236. Thank you, yeah I didn't want to spend a ton of time trying to get into pan-africanism
    1
  2237. I explain it at the end
    1
  2238. https://youtu.be/0FvlWUs0f0U
    1
  2239. Yes, BUT that actually had a systemic effect. It's literally divesting or boycotting the system
    1
  2240. Love tool
    1
  2241. Yeah I messed up here with the upload cause I've been trying to get that better

  2245. I'm pretty sure I took it down. I'm going to put it on my new secondary channel. Subscribe to signified b sides.
    1
  2246. Either or really. I don't spend a ton if time spoiling inside so the question is whether you want to watch it free of any influence or if you don't mind seeing it through the lens I give here.
    1
  2247. Watch the video before commenting
    1
  2248. Trump is literally a convicted felon who was sued for housing discrimination, had his whole previous team abandon him over his erratic nature, and a loooooooong history of lies and making things up. How is this a real argument? He said all election he didn't know anything about project 2025 and then hired the person who created. Are you serious?
    1
  2249. It's had a 50% increase in the last hour...

  2250. But I Will change it back eventually

  2251. Saving it for September probably
    1
  2252. Pretty sure that's not what I said🤣
    1
  2253. I am?🤔
    1
  2254. There's literally a chapter of the video called "why you can't blame the media"... I don't know what else to say other than that.
    1
  2255.  @zato-1766  ... did you finish the segment? I clearly land on the fact that social factors are the key ingredient to criminality, not hip hop or media. then I go on to explictly state that you shouldn't blame movies like the joker for edgelord behavior.
    1
  2256. Yeah I'm experimenting

  2277. This is a serious question in trying to understand btw
    1

    1
  2286. Eeeehhhh that's a bit too far but the maybe it's a qanon entry point
    1
  2287. I have made allusions but for the videos I make I haven't really found a place to dive in. Plus I'm very much still learning about black leftist theory and ideology so I don't have anything I can say with confidence. I engage a lot with liberal/neo liberal ideology cause there's more meat to the bone and more to unpack for more people, and that's also where my understanding of the world has had to evolve from, so a lot in videos like this is also unpacking my own changes and growth.
    1
  2288. Did you watch any part of the video🤣
    1
  2289.  @tdmc123  and pretty much everything you said bro. If I don't hold your attention that's on me though.

  2293. Minoxidil (aka Rogaine) it helped take me from a mustache/goatee combo to a struggle beard
    1
  2294. The word black is racist now?
    1
  2295. 1 solo album. A really good one... but only 1. Sorry Lauryn impact is lost in time.
    1
  2296. Solo albums are GOAT Qualifiers, the same reason why I don't see Andre 3000 as a GOAT candidate. I'm not pandering this is my opinion lol, look at my videos, look at the comments. My audience is predominantly black fam I don't pander to anyone I just don't agree with you.
    1
  2297. Fam... now you're insinuating that lgbtq and feminist aren't black. I know yore not trying to sound like this on purpose, but it doesn't help me take your criticism any more seriously.
    1
  2298. Yet you keep coming back...
    1
  2299.  @chibiraptor  I didn't get any real pro NOI vibes but I might have missed that. I think he pointed out some value in their doctrine. I know person that the NOI is a cult but I also know they have great pr. I'll revisit this though cause I may have missed that.
    1
  2300.  @chibiraptor  NOI =/= Nazis...that's a Dhalsim reach right there. Two things can be true at once. NOI can be a cult full of all kinds of badness AND it has also done far more to help black people than any modern leftist movement I know of. The desire to require for issues to fit perfectly into neat boxes is a thing we do too often on the left. You can't say that he supports NOI just because he pointed out an obvious truth. Nazi Germany gave us Fanta... does drinking Fanta soda make me a Nazi sympathizer or just a lover of sugary beverages?
    1
  2301. But none of those things happened. All partied involved agree that NOI is bad and Nazis are bad. Btw I made a whole video trashing Buck Breaking so...
    1
  2302.  @chibiraptor  Because two things can be true at once. You're trying to over simplify complex things... that's just not reality. I don't remember Badmouse exact language on the NOI but I think it's pretty uncharitable to insinuate that he is OK with the homophoia and antisemitism. I think my interpretation Is much more true to the reality of his statement.
    1
  2303. I try to have those in all my videos
    1
  2304. I've recently learned this

  2308.  @a.jeffreysmith2628  Yeah im sorry im not comfortable here.
    1
  2309. 🤣
    1
  2310. Could you elaborate more? I'd be interested to see where you feel I missed the mark. I don't quite get your critique here. What do you mean by "black male material status"?
    1
  2311. I almost made it an hour
    1
  2312. I was about to reach out to him lol
    1
  2313. I didn't edit that part but I don't think there was any specific reason. I'd have probably used Lena Duhnam
    1
  2314. You sure it's not cause he galled it the "China Virus"
    1
  2315. Yup, I have some thoughts on this coming sooner or later
    1
  2316. Did you watch the Chapelle video I clearly talked about that there
    1
  2317. I got the point completely it just didn't justify the method he took for trying to get it across
    1
  2318. Say more. I touched on some stuff like that in the black men's sexuality video but felt like having more of feel good pep talk with this one. But also I'm not as strong on that literature
    1
  2319.  @darkcylander  nobody wanted him to say it in the interview
    1
  2320.  @darkcylander  oooooh Yeah I guess
    1
  2321. You should read the book
    1
  2322. @Noir  nope Drake lived on multiple sides of torronto and lived in apartments his whole life that he paid for from his acting. Drake was not privileged. He visited his black dad in Memphis Tennessee regularly. And grew up working class and around working class people. He has had numerous experiences with racism throughout his life. He understands it well enough. He also does not look middle eastern cmon now fam. All black experiences are not the same and it would be great if he spoke to his, but he chooses not to.
    1
  2323. I'm still learning
    1
  2324. It's already up
    1
  2325. Go rewatch a bit more closely
    1
  2326. I was thinking about that. He's done that a few times, Pursuit of happiness, Concussion, and now this. I think hes such a huge star that he transcends that type of limitation. On the flipside we've also seen Denzel as Malcom X and Chadwick as Thurgood Marshall, so it's hard to pin down what really going on there.

  2341. Im not sure if we actually disagree on what mainstream was between 87-91, i just think that Silver era is musically superior. Culturally definitely inferior but musically and sonically and thematically to me it's not even close. Rakim is a dope rapper and lyricist but he never gave us anything on the level of Illmatic

  2362. I did not make this saying up and the fact that you don't know that probably means your opinion isn't very valuable on the subject

  2363. There are diaries of slave owners and other accounts that are legitimate. But very little to substantiate that this happen on the level presented by the documentary.
    1
  2364. Then the line makes even lest sense. I'm pretty sure he says rentals I've never heard an m sound there

  2368. That statement isn't explicitly about Gary Vee which i make pretty clear
    1
  2369. To me decolonialzation also means disavowing any ways in which whiteness can influence the way I see the world or my own culture. To me that word has been a term of endearment, closeness, celebration, etc. I know the words history, I choose to disregard it.
    1
  2370.  @TheOutlierPlays  how do people currently use the swastika? That comparison doesn't work because there's no situation these days where the swastika is used for anything other than fear and intimidation. It's also a symbol of a specific entity vs a word. That's kid of apples to oranges

  2371. The craziest one was Chadwick as Thurgood Marshall. In soooo mad I left that one out. But yea I think you're right about representation, black men don't have the same pain points on it as a whole.

  2374. I am aware that it still exists. I spied on that whole "tramp stamps" fiasco a couple of months ago. But yeah it begs the question of why it's lost so much of a share in the popular culture? Especially since radio and media have so much less power over what we see and hear. You would think it'd be easier for alternative "white" art to be seen, but it's actually less seen now.
    1
  2375.  @zachporr4315  I don't think our perspectives really conflict. The marketing and economic piece is I think key. For a multitude of reasons, the market viability of "urban" style and music is just much bigger than the current market for alt/punk kids. What's behind that... idk you got any ideas?
    1
  2376. Malcom was definitely light, Ali maybe not, Thurgood Marshall was way waaaaaay lighter than Chadwick Bozeman. Chadwick even said himself that he almost turned down the role because of it. Jeffrey Wright played MLK once too. It's hit and.miss with black historical figures
    1
  2377. It's not... I've been told numerous times 🤣
    1
  2378.  @greatvaluepookie  My target audience for this video was teh multitude of people who didn't get the problem with Dave's jokes. Bringing up his non-black wife was to illustrate that we give Dave too much credit for how "down" he is with the people. I love Dave and I think he's an important voice but I do feel like Dave's perspective on black issues is not as comprehensive as we'd like to think. Dave has never fully understood blackness outside of specific context. I don't have any issue with interracial relationships, but when you dont' partner with a black woman, dont live around black people, don't hang with black peple except for on occasion... yeah that alters my judgement of what you have to say about black culture and black communities. It'd be like taking cooking advice from somonone who don't season their food. I dont know what you consider pandering about that, I think some things i said here hit a nerve and to me that's part of the point.
    1
  2379.  @greatvaluepookie  my audience includes tons of black men. I hear from a lot of black men regularly and they appreciate the depth I get into and that I call out this type of stuff. I'm not gonna not be critical of a public figure when he fucks up this bad just cause he's a brotha. When every video is about him or R Kelly or Cosby or something then feel free to come with that criticism. But did I lie? Does my point not hold up? Like I said, I brought up his non black wife to illustrate his distance from black people which I think legitimizes my argument that he doesn't know what he's talking about on the issues he's trying to speak on. Do you disagree or are you just upset that I said it? Tell me where I went wrong cause Ima be honest it sounds more like you want to be pandered to specifically and I'm not about to do that.

    1
  2395.  @malcolmthompson7769  I've heard from more than enough black men that they greatly appreciate what I'm doing and aren't interested in the usual nonsense and toxic shit throwing that is ALWAYS happening online between black men and women. If you're not with that and want me to "fight misandry" log off and go watch Kevin Samuels fam.

  2409. Interesting, so I have researched Holmes for my graduate studies. I never thought that the whole Joker thing was a true influence of his behavior, (I've read his journals, and it's clear he was psychotic) but I had never seen anything up until now to debunk that he was calling himself the joker upon capture. With Holmes (and other spree shooters) the thing isn't so much imitating the images they see on screen, I see it more as the iconography they choose to put on display while they engage in spectacle violence. What I kind of wanted to get across in the video was that it's never the films, it's always the people, and a greater societal problem of how we construct masculinity, especially in this case white masculinity. Characters like the joker and other edgelord iconography just become conduits for that problem. I think I get your point about how the media "labels" these events and assigns intent even when these perpetrators are not red pilled incels. There's definitely nuance that is lost when the Media becomes our filter for these stories. However, there are plenty of non-white men who suffer from chemical imbalances, psychotic breaks, etc. Some do engage in violent acts, but very VERY few do it at the scale that white men do. The desire to have a violent act reach the level of spectacle that Holmes and many other spree shooters do, is uniquely white/male. While it IS important to separate Holmes who was psychotic, from Elliot Rodger who is a psychopath, we can't ignore the intersection between race and masculinity that keeps popping up in these types of events. Lastly, Holmes wanting to separate his normal self FROM the self who was going to commit mass murder fits pretty well into an overall context and tradition of these acts as manifestations of masculine reclamation through spectacle violence. Check out the book Angry White Men by Michael Kimmel for my overall rationale. Also check out Peter Langman who breaks down differences between certain types of spree shooters. That said, had I known that the joker connection was completely fabricated I probably would have left it out. Thanks for the useful criticism and the support!

    1
  2416. This is a valid criticism. I have never consumed film as a true critic, like I said I reviewed this from the standpoint of a consumer. Ans that's the paradox of selling art as a product, especially a big budget movie. You will still be beholden to people's criticism of your art as a "product". In the past all of Nolans "products" have been good products and good art. Tenet was only really one of those things.
    1
  2417. Seriously though I've always appreciated hearing you talk about storytelling.
    1
  2418. I don't remember Carbon Copy, I'm planning a video on how Hollywood is very complicit in how poorly we understand race in this country because of movies like soulman, all the way up to green book so yeah I'll look into that one.

  2429. I've seen some of her stuff. I have the same take overall on her, but I just don't think there's anything valuable that would come out of my criticism there. Plus, her content is attached to the "black dating guru" section of youtube and I really don't want that attention on my channel🤣. I wish she were less inflammatory but she's not like some of the other "divestment" types really. The most I got is my video on Love and Basketball until further notice
    1
  2430. I legit was not aware... But that's the thing. They co-opted it so quickly and efficiently that it became an undeniable symbol of white feminism. I don't know how much more white feminist you can get than a feminist symbol created by WOC taken by white women, removed of all it's meaning, and then reproduced as a symbol of white feminist solidarity and exclusion of everyone else...

    1
  2441. So first we have to recognize that all mass murder is rare and we shouldn't consider like "policy" issues based off of extreme examples. That said within the realm of spree killings and their possible connection with mental illness, I still see James Holmes as a strong example because many people who struggle with mental illness. There are few who struggle with mental illness ans then turn violent, there are even fewer who resort to mass violence and almost ALL of those who resort to this form of mass violence are cis het white men.

How have black gay people "betrayed" their blackness outside of taking issue with the way some of yall treat them? Bro if you cared about ALL black folks there's no way you'd be caping for this goofy ass movie and it's hostility toward gay people.

I was even critical of Hill too, i feel like you heard me talk bad about patriarchy and got offended and turned your ears off. I appreciate the critique tho. It's hard to condense a whole thesis on an issue into 10 min. Ill reevaluate next time. Also bell hooks is dope and you should try to read her stuff she gets it.

I explicitly state that the media doesn't create edgelords, cause what I want people to see is thT social systems and systems of inequality (white supremacy and patriarchy) create edgelords. These edgelords then look to certain forms of media to reaffirm their world view, even when said media is actually not supposed to get across that message. The comparison to hip hop was to point out how lazy it is to say that movies like the Joker "create" edgelords that it's just as lazy to say that hip hop creates criminals. Social inequality creates crime, hip hop reflects this and in some situations gives it shape and influences the way it comes across but it is not the cause of it. We had crime before hip hop, we had spree shooters before the Joker. The problem isn't the media it's us.

  2540. @Jbonics  you sidestepped my question though. What is the threshold for selling out? Is Kendrick a sell out for performing tonight at the supwrbowl? Are the players themselves sellouts for playing? They're all literally being paid by the NFL. I did this for free. My boys are at a basketball camp right now with other black men and black coaches. Are we all sellouts? Where is the lije and who gets to draw it? Also notice how this is putting the pressure on me a black man or other black men vs the actual source of the problem. You're on my page diminishing my voice and role in liberation after all this work. What is accomplished? This is why I landed where I landed at the end, not to cosign and say the NFL is good but to point out that there is no perfect response to the problem and that any response aimed at the oppressed is wrong headed

  2541. I had time today and I take any plausible criticism seriously. I'm trying to grow as I GROW I just wanted to make videos I didn't sign up to he an influencer frfr and I'm in a unique spot, the pressure to navigate this space is real so I try to examine every space where there's reasonable criticism.

  2551. Thank you for watching!

  2552. Good points there. I kinda alluded to the fact that RnB singers had a different standard but Drake and his explicit appeal to women and his singing is definitely a factor that probably explains the disparity more than colorism

  2555. I mean definitely, I engage intersectionality all the time. Idk my attitude is that it's not a scholarly paper so when it comes to HUGE theories like intersectionality I don't always attribute. I hear intersectionality a lot but I don't think most cite in their youtube videos. I tend not to cite unless I'm using a direct quote or something lesser known.

  2619.  @jacobpayne2986  I personally don't see tenet as anything special (look at my review) That role has been played by black men a few times. It is notable for Nolan who i don't think has had any major black characters like ever. It is the first time it's happened in a while i guess.
    1
  2620. Explain how patriarchy is not a core element of that outcome. Is it the only reason... of course not. But considering the disparity in education, I don't see how you can argue that patriarchy is not a factor
    1
  2621. Like you know that graph would be almost identical for white men
    1
  2622. So we do benefit from patriarchy but not at the same level as white men... this is a given of course. But when I say it like that you see why this take seems like a poison pill right. However I've seen several men try to disregard patriarchy completely when nobody is really saying that it's exactly the same.
    1
  2623. That's how all patriarchy works. It's always only truly benefited a small portion of men to the fullest. And like I said white men and women the pattern is the same.
    1
  2624. There's definitely benefits from patriarchy from a certain standpoint. This is why intersectionality is important. A lot of folks are so turned off from the concept that they don't realize how useful it is for understanding social phenomenon. The point to take away is thT the benefits don't outweigh the negatives and that men overwhelmingly take the lions share of benefits. AND at the same time patriarchy is incredibly harmful to men which is why despite the privileges it gives we need to be just as willing to dismantle it.
    1
  2625. Yeah someone pointed that out, interesting story.

  2626. I may have missed on that one. Gonna do more research

  2627. Peterson just mostly puts academic words in front of white supremacist patriarchal ideologies. In the end my issues with his fantasy exist because he greatly attracts problematic fans who hear his dog whistle racism, homophobia, and transphobia, etc

  2638. Race and sex doesn't alter the way the characters work in any way...?

  2639.  @todd.cannon  even in those moments we can't help but racialize characters. Writers may or may not play into these unconscious codes we apply to people or to gender, but they're their none the less. The idea of not seeing color is a myth.

  2640. Kanye definitely paved the way for drake. You probably aren't old enough to know what hip hop looked/sounded like before Kanye. Kanye made the type of music drake makes possible, even if the current subject matter is different.

  2642. Rogan is not as bad as Sheen but they both appeal to the same destructive sense of hyper individuality and despite Rogan's appearance as a free thinker looking for diverse thought his guests are almost all center right and very close to his and his audiences wheel house.
    1
  2643. Aaaah ok I see what you're saying. And yes thats incorrect. What I really wanted to get at is that most interracial relationships involve white men by a wide margin and that they don't get as much scrutiny for dating out as other groups of men. I clearly indicate and point out that black men are.much more likely to marry out than black women, I just add to the fact that it's an insignificant number greatly outsized by the amount of attention they get. You're trying to argue a point that I didn't make.
    1
  2644. But again you're repeating things I said in the video. I was clearly critical of black men's love for talking about their "preferences". Still doesn't make sense that it's such a topic of interest cause every peice of math you just used illustrates just how rare it is in reality. The raw numbers of white men marrying out vs black men is like 30 million to 5 million. You can't tell me that this is all about how "loud" black men are as id that's the only reason. That's a very myopic and bad faith interpretation of the phenomenon

  2668.  @capicityforgood258  My perspective on children is, if war is truly inevitable, then let it come. I would rather die living life the way I choose than to spend my life to prepare for war, especially for my children.

    1
  2695. "just divides us more" is a red flag tbh. There's a basic lack of real knowledge of how racism works inherent to the sentiment that this is a problem of "division" as if black people are choosing to be separated from access to basic tools of self determination in this country.
    1
  2696. In reading your comment it feels like you didn't even watch the video. You likely got bothered by the evocation of race and decided without listening that you would refute it off go. If I'm wrong, what was your response to Jockey theory?
    1
  2697. Eeeeeeh... I get criticism of Crenshaw and hooks etc al. Curry didn't quite stick the landing to me. Like he doesn't want to admit it, but he's an intersectional scholar. He can critique other intersectional scholars and many of his critiques are very valid but they're more criticism of academia or some individual takes on intersectionality. But as a whole he tries very hard to make it seem like he's doing something different... but he's not.
    1
  2698. That's not really the point... Did you watch the video?
    1
  2699.  @aussieg1107  You couldn't have watched the video, or you have a poor understanding of media literacy. Gal Gadot being white or not doesn't have much bearing on the movie's white feminist tendencies. The movie isn't about Gal Gadot, it's about wonder woman.
    1
  2700. Are you my first ever troll? Is this really your logic? Do you know what white feminism is or how it's defined in the video? DID YOU WATCH THE VIDEO? (head explodes) This is like saying Schindlers List can't be about Jewish people cause Liam Neeson is Irish...

  2702. It's not about pushing the clowns with the scholars as much as keeping in mind what you say here. That the clowns parents are the most problematic and that's what needs the attention.

  2764. Sorry I thought I had the story close enough. Either way that version of the story most definitely was used by slave owners to justify slavery. This wasn't really part of my argument, just setting the stage.

  2777. I stand by the Andrew Tate slander. I also don't know if you're saying anything I don't say in the video, so I don't get how I'm mischaracterizing Erin. Erin wanted to do the rumbling and made an excuse to do it... Deep down inside Erin is a petulant boy, his fanboys see him as the man. That's my whole thesis. Idk what the conflict is.

  2778. Linebacker is a different position in football, but they actually are also greatly devalued. But they don't have as rough a role

  2780.  @hungk69  yeah and idk it seems like it misses the part where race doesn't explicitly define the trope.

  2781. Not from what I know. The irony is that yt chooses what commercials to show based on your personal algorithm.
    1
  2782. I do think you can tell YT to not show you certain adds, but the way it works (I think) I'd that yt spys on your social media data and all that and looks at other demographic features. It then puts you into a category or two to market you to certain advertisers. Then during the video YT will decide when to place add breaks (usually during chapters) and they will actually have a bot of some sort auction off the opportunity to show an add in that spot. So everyone might see something different based on the category they have been pushed in by yt. For example I get a lot of manscape stuff and other make interest stuff on my personal account where I watch almost nothing but combat sports, gaming, and football videos. But on this account which is my creator account I get tons of skill share adds and other adds about creating online brands and websites etc. It's interesting but also deeply disturbing.

  2784. He loves hip hop, he's from Chicago, he's read Marx, he has a black wife, he has black children, he has an advanced degree, he's experienced racism, he's intelligent, he's had to navigate whiteness on the way too success, he grew up without his father. This is off the top of my head fam
