if you believe that too, why didn't you just say that from the start instead of being vague as a motherfucker and making this a protracted fucking conversation? you could have just said "yeah that's what i believe too"

seriously, you desperately need to get to the goddamned point when you talk
So then why have a whole network called black entertainment if nothing is really "black"?
because that's some stupid racist shit
Note how I said the exact opposite, I was using tyler perry as an example to cite my point.Add on "and should be classified as such." All better now?Just because it covers a small spectrum of the actual "lifestyle", if you will, doesn't mean that it's not an accurate representation in some aspects.
if rap, hip hop, and r&b were exclusively black, there would be no people other than blacks who make that music or listen to it. that's clearly untrue, so it's fucking stupid. they slapped that name on it to make it appeal to a particular kind of person who buys into that sort of racist bullshit without realizing it.
okay, now it sounds like you are disagreeing with what i said, even though you actually agree with what i said. i honestly have no idea what the fuck you mean. your first tyler perry name drop looked like you were supporting the idea that something could be defined as "black" without that being narrow and racist as fuck. your second one just now (which came WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY the fuck after i made my point) looks like you agree with me in saying the opposite is true.
look i just don't even know what you're talking about.
Stereotypes are there for a reason, more often than not they are pretty much right.
black people do not do themselves any favors. i think any black person who supports a tyler perry movie should be slapped in the face and made to sit in the corner for an hour. yes, you are supporting a black director and cast of black actors. however, you're also supporting and promoting stories that are stereotypical and predominantly negative. it's not a good look.
bitch i lived in memphis, which is the darkest city in the fuckin union. i recognize this. i also recognize that there are enough people who fall on the outside of a stereotype that it's fucking wrong to assume that about people and apply it to them. i would never assume you're eating fried chicken you bought with food stamps so you could support your air jordans and rims habit. those people exist, but i wouldn't promote that as "the black lifestyle" like it's the way most black people live.
Miz, check your FB for some MLK shit.
seriously leroy, you're arguing both sides here and it's confusing.
