I just can't get that black panther clip out my mind.
Nigga really ran up 3 stories and lapped Bucky who only had to run up one.

From my experience, its women that have it much worse. At least where I'm at right now. For men, if you try to do small afros, you're hit with the "go find some clippers" talk.

I'm in Ohio, it used to be bad for me when I was younger (never had my hair straightened) but now that half of every woman seems to be doing it, nobody cares.

What black person would ask the questions those black people ask in that Buzzfeed video? When did we become about watermelon? For real? What black person doesn't know about samba's and tar baby comics? Why do we say nigga but get mad when white people say it? What black person would seriously ask that question?

Maybe you don't encounter enough Special Snowflake black people.

You know the same ones that are black, but not like other black people because they don't listen to rap, talk ghetto or eat fried chicken.

Seriously I've encountered a lot of those types; they are the same folk who pretty much have a diet racist view of black people and make excuses for white racism.

But I can't with "why watermelon?" Everyone eats watermelon. It's one of the greatest fruits. Or the "why can we get on dance crazes but not politics?" Gee, I wonder. Maybe because to hear a dance song all you have to do is turn on the radio. Also, I'm pretty sure black people make up the largest racial majority in American politics and we have a very storied politician history. Asking this during the final year of our black presidents 8 year presidency is absolute foolishness and I think each and every one of those people who participated in that video should have their mothers slap them across the face whether it was for money or not.

Can you imagine if Buzzfeed made a video called LGBT people ask LGBT people questions and they ask, with sincerity, things like:

Why anal?
How come you can't use the bathroom of your birth gender?
Why is AIDS such a big problem in our community? We should be over it by now.

I haven't watched but given the very nature of the video and the Internet reaction it must already be in the millions. Given its success I would bet Buzzfeed would legitimately make the video described above.

What?!

Black folks fucking love anime. Raekwon talked about forming like Voltron. Souljah Boy talked about he look like Goku. This video sounds worse than I thought.

What the fuck is that fleek question? A white person wrote that question.

bitch I'm taking calls.
Add Frank Ocean talking about majin buu to the examples of how clueless that buzzfeed bullshit is. It's obvious from personal experience but it also doesn't hold up from a popular culture perspective.

I think the entire video is that. It's the Fox News thing of having a bunch of black mouthpieces saying shit that they know would get a white person rightfully called racist. Unfortunately, a fair number of black people will coon it up if the price is right.

I haven't seem the video but from what i've heard it's total vapid nonsense, It's made for white people to nod nod their heads at.

But come on y'all watermelon is overrated. It's nothing next to the superior Honeydew.
