>>25672381. In America, black isn't just a race. It's been made into something like a class, and media figures are pushed to show solidarity by pretending to be more low-class (eg in leagues with
hip hop) than they actually are. This is also why women like Ayo Edebiri sometimes get harassed for not "acting black enough". Also, America is currently run by racist porn producers and consumers.
2. Hip-hop is "the" black music genre now, rather than music like jazz, RnB, rock, etc, and those were all much less sexualized. It wasn't like this before, look at Whitney Houston and Donna Summer. Hip-hop, due to ghetto male and "other" influence, is typically very aggressive and sexual. It got to a fever pitch in the 90s, and only became worse. It panders to the lowest common denominator. One black woman (C. Delores Tucker) tried to speak against it, but was shut down and faced a lot of misogynistic abuse. Men involved with hip-hop want women to be whores, and those who don't acquiesce simply won't be pushed in the industry. When black musucians only have one popular genre they're allowed to become famous in, this is what you get. Pinkpantheress would NEVER have been allowed to make it in the US with the current zeitgeist. What they want is Ice Spice. In the first place, I'm convinced Pinkpantheress was only allowed to be as she is and get popular because she's biracial, because the same disorder is catching up to the UK slowly (I remember that "put that shrimp back in your pants" song/video). Even the Black American women who still sing RnB are pressured to fit what hip hop scrotes like (SZA, Summer Walker, etc).
3. All these problems have been made "woke", so you're barely allowed to contest them. There's an entire subsection of Black American men who believe that not fitting into the hip-hop sanctioned aesthetic and way of behavior means you are a "race traitor" who "dates white men", and Black American women who have internalized all kinds of degeneracy as their identity. These people only think of white people, their existence in relation to white people, and live to be the opposite of anything currently classed as "white", good or bad. This means that if white women are expected to be chaste, black women need to be sluts. If white women are expected to be pretty, black women need to be ugly. If white women are expected to be thin, black women need to be fat. If white women are expected to be quiet, black women need to be loud. Anything else is betrayal. This is how they've made sense of the world, and their idea of a "quiet protest" against an unjust/racist society, even if it affirms all the problems and means teen pregnancies, increased rates of heart disease (and poor health in general), encouraging domestic violence and turning a blind eye to femicide. They affirm their blackness through inferiority and rot. Whenever any black woman within the community wants or seems to embody something else, they start screaming "Well, white people will call you a nigger anyway, they lynched your ancestors when they were acting and looking all proper and the women were skinny! You are being Eurocentric, this is respectability politics!". The idea of wanting better for one's own community has become alien, because their idea of racial self-esteem has been made into…this. The proliferation of libfem politics coupled with the struggles of the lower class (which were exacerbated by the Reagan's crack epidemic) and the boogeyman of respectability politics created this mess, really.
4. Racist people like (even love) this set-up because it affirms the idea of white superiority, and necessarily erases black people who don't fit into negative, dehumanizing stereotypes. It also ensures easy sexual access when a demographic of women decides that promiscuity and nihilism are political praxis. All of this is just extremely convenient for racists, but you're supposed to pretend you don't see it. America is just kind of an extreme and insane country when it comes to race. Other countries have their own issues with, but America's got the world stage and this is what everyone is influenced by.

tl;dr: It would go against the current narrative and piss off trashy people, people who've gone so woke they've fallen into horseshoe theory and racists, all of which have been allowed to dictate "black" media is in the US for a while now. Momo Boyd is another example of a Black American singer who doesn't hypersexualize herself and debuted with a song about love (rather than fucking). She faced extreme backlash and accusations of being far right, being an African immigrant because her behavior/aesthetic is considered too different, etc.
Vid related, two Black American public figures (Lil Yachty and Quenlin Blackwell) arguing over who is "white black" ("white-washed"), and the latter's benchmark for "blackness" ends up being who's been in more physical altercations. Humor or not, this is the current accepted conception of being black and any "authentic" culture that has to do with it. Ultimately, Black American people in the comment section accused them both of being "white black" and shamed them for supposedly being raised in suburban towns. All of this shit is what happens when a race is made near-synonymous with a class, and diverse cultures within that race aren't given due recognition.

I'm not even black, I guess the other kids thought it meant I thought myself "better" than them or something. How, I don't know, I had terrible grades and was of lower class than most anybody else.
I never did it since it felt pretty cringey to force myself to speak in a way I wasn't naturally accustomed to and I was a loser anyway, looking back it was all pretty ridiculous.

So when people try to blanket statement about racist white people i always think are they really racist or are they reacting to the real shitheads around them? I'm sure they know its

No. 2567471
>>2567464I don't think that's
always the case. Sometimes wires in your brain just get crossed and you can accidentally "train" yourself to associate random things with sex, which is why most fetishes develop in childhood or during puberty. Your brain is very squishy and moldable during this time and takes in as much information as it possibly can, sometimes to its own detriment. Even if you don't consciously know what sex is, your
subconscious does.
No. 2567479
>>2567460I mean, foxes
are canines, they're pretty intelligent as far as animal families go. They're also cautious and methodical hunters who are good at staying hidden. People just mistake this cautiousness for cunning when in reality, the fox is just an animal,
of course it's gonna sniff around a box full of chickens when it's hungry kek. They probably became THE animal we associate with tricksters because we've lived alongside them and dealt with them eating livestock for centuries, same as wolves.

>>2567951The Japanese have autism. Similar to Germans. Both of these nations found liking in each other during WW2 based on that. Another thing they have in common, might be related to autism as well, which is an obsession about the anus/poop. That's why it's called "anal" fixation. Their societies are harsh, cold and with strict rules. Akin to toilet training in early childhood that is too harsh, which leads to obsessiveness and overt tidiness.
In the Japanese this trait shows in putting visible assholes onto simplistic and cute characters. The Germans are more pragmatic about the ordeal and equip their literal toilets with a shape that allows the turd to sit on top of the water inviting the user to inspect every bit of their doing.

Genuinely asking: is there something wrong with Gen Z men? Why do they all need chiropractors?
I've been on 2 seperate tinder dates within the past month where the guys have mentioned going to a chiropractor. And then today I overheard some dude in my college class talking about how he's thinking of seeing a chiropractor. Why? Is the strain from tilting their head at an angle to look at their phone screen finally catching up with them? Do men nowadays just have weak backs? Is going to a chiropractor some new trend I haven't heard of? And why haven't I heard any women talking about chiropractor visits?

In my case they’re dry patches and they also don’t hurt but nowadays trying to scrape it off does hurt unless I use water. It’s not on follicles it’s on skin. I thought it was a vitamin B deficiency (like pellagra or something) especially since I have a history of malnourishment in the past (not currently) so I got high strength ones but I’m nearly finished with them with no change… just continuing to get worse. It used to just be a small patch that came off when I showered but now it’s long and on both arms jesus. I can’t go to a dermatologist right now (don’t ask).
