Black Male privilege is as real as White Privilege

[swimmingpools]

too bad none of you can seem to prove it. i keep asking y'all a simple question "what privileges?"

and yall start copy & pasting stupid ass list about men being able to abandon their kids and shyt.

Who is "yall"? I have no idea what list you're talking about.

 

[AITheAnswerAI]

This double agent shyster is trying to create even more of a divide between black people than there already is.

Go back to cheating people out of their money you underhanded piece of shyt.

 

[KOohbt]

in what world are men valued more than women men generally get treated like shyt is society. disregard all the nameless, faceless men that have died defending this country, or all the faceless men coal mining, or shuffling shyt in a sewer. whens the last time you've seen a group of homeless women on the streets?

This thread is silly. Idk if the people agreeing with op are black women or white men.

Is being able to make a little money off of our superior artistry a privilege? Nvm that's just talent.

We literally have zero privilege.

 

[MaseratiDiaz]

Men are still valued more than women. Men still have more privileges than women. Acknowledging this =/= saying black men don't face discrimination, I know you do and it would be stupid of me to say that you don't, but just by being a man you have more privileges than me as a woman.

You don't know how patriarchy works. Sayings like women and children first wouldn't exist if men were more valued than women. Women are a protected class. In some cases women are even more protected than children . Men don't have privileges. Men have duties.

There's no such thing as black male privilege. OP is obviously looking for some attention tonight.

name male privilege that blacks benefit from besides earning dollars more than black women. (while still earning significantly less than every other race of women)

God damn we get shytted on HARD. From everyone. Even our own women throw us under the bus to save themselves. Let's keep it real. Black feminists goal is to throw us under the bus so that maybe white folks will focus all there energy on fukking us instead of most there energy.

"If you can convince the lowest white man that he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll even empty his pockets for you." - Lyndon B Johnson


You can take that statement, change a few words where applicable, and the overally message will still apply.

Women will always sooner assimilate into a dominant society as opposed to fight said society, especially if they don't believe their men have a shot at winning.
Even Native women eventually gave up and began willingly spreading their legs for the settlers.
It's why they're abandoning ship and willfully endorsing policies that will target black males.
The movement is political but it's there, which is why guys need to come up off the idea that every female out there is their friend & queen because they share the same skin tone.
Buzz words like "solidarity" aren't realistic at the moment.
A lot of the black women are looking out for interest of self - just in case.
They are willing to cooperate, unfortunately for them, it doesn't necessarily work like that once they're done with black men.

Brehettes, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You @swimmingpools? @Colicat? Men have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for your matriarchy, and you curse the patriarchy. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That the patriarchy, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a woman who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that men provide, and then questions the manner in which men provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

That's the realest quote ever. So pertinent to today's political climate.

It's nice to have the privilege of being shot & beaten by the cops.

Why police what privileges I can list, but ask me to list some? Okay let me stop trolling, I personally think that among black people, men are held to a higher standard. I was actually talking about this to my brother the other day. If something in the media happens to a black man, he has more support than black women. Again if you want me to pull up spread sheets and dissertations on this, then you may want to stop quoting me because I have none and I'm not about to search any for you, but this is what I see.

You guys are taking it too far though. Who really thinks thats a privilege?

back to the trayvon martin argument.

like i said, black men receive more media attention because black men are unjustly killed way more than black women. but it sounds like you'd rather have oppression olympics instead of pointing out legitimate privileges

"oh, oh, when black men get killed, they get more attention from the media" foh

Again women focusing on how they feel as opposed to factual facts and numbers. Just like how you think most black guys date white girls even though the numbers don't support that.

Didnt read it all, but I never said that I dont need men to protect me, so I dont get where you're getting that from. You took one statement of mine and made this theory about how I think of black men when you're so far off.

Again women focusing on how they feel as opposed to factual facts and numbers. Just like how you think most black guys date white girls even though the numbers don't support that.

When did I say this? You're projecting. I didnt mention anything about IR dating and I know most black people date within our race so...once again

They always deflect the blame onto black men instead of calling out the main culprit which is white men/supremacy. You never really see them do that.

You have me confused with another poster. I know about white supremacy, white media etc. I forgot I can't say anything about men without being labeled a black man hater. at me being a white man lover. White savior? lmao
