Do you think it's okay for black men to lack empathy for other black men?

Black people’s inability to work together to create, build, and maintain is why we are in this position.

You rarely see other groups putting each other down.

Find all the clips of Asians on Fox News putting down Asians. And white men seperate themselves into any possible subgroup to avoid complaining about white men. Liberal, conservative, poor, elite, working class, gay, straight, Jew, Christian, but never just white.
Yeah. It's sad.

I'm not saying accepting it. I'm saying do you think it's right? Since we as men tend to have codes of honor should we not be our brothers keeper? Or should we just be like, "men don't get sympathy from the world so why should I have any?"

I do what Dr. King says. I judge brehs on the content of their character.

I will always empathize for brehs, even brehs that make stupid decisions, but I can't feel sorry for people who don't respect themselves, or who don't understand how their actions affect other people.

Nah. I hope more brehs understand that we only got each other in this society. As, no one either really cares or understands the black man plight like other black men can.
YOU???????
This whole thread confuses me. Arent gay black men also black men? Yet you amongst the rest are some of the most violent homophobic fukkers out there

No, it's definitely not okay.

That is a behavior that is perpetuated by the worse racist ideas in our society.

It's funny that I'm seeing this thread. My breh is going through some shyt and I literally JUST text him, "Breh, I love you. I guarantee we are going to get through the trials and tribulations that we are going through. Stay strong."

When I see other black men in the street and they look like they are going through it...I try to prepare myself for a potential hostility that comes from it and remember not to reciprocate that hostility if I'm in a healthy emotional state.

I hate when I get into conflict with another breh and we both are on some rah rah shyt. Afterwards, after the adrenaline rush and initial ego spike, I feel remorseful.

:wow: I'm glad we still got some real ones on the Coli. The only way we ever going to come up as a collective is if we start caring about one another as and looking out. Jews and Asians are surpassing white people because they look at themselves as a community. Black people don't have the power/wealth in the West to be too selfish and individualistic. Leave that shyt to the white boys. It's the reason their community is having so many issues now despite their wealth.

No it’s not. You don’t have to condone certain things, but you should never lack empathy. You know what lacking empathy looks like? Remember the crack epidemic? Remember how whites said that was our problem? That’s lacking empathy. Those same people now want empathy because their kids and grandkids, got hooked to prescription opioids. We’re better than that. Lacking empathy leads to not giving a fukk on a deep level.
