You cannot control the digital landscape. Twitter is now an alt right social media platform basically. That was Elon Musk's plan and vision for the app. You cannot control the digital landscape yet we keep seeing thread after thread about what some racist said on Twitter. Most black women do not think like the ones on Twitter.
Even if the image of black men was promoted as pristine and impeccable online the white supremacists will still be radicalized and still hate us. The point is being chronically online some of yall start to blur reality and the internet together. They go on there specifically to say this ignorant hateful stuff because they can't in real life.
No one is saying that you can control the digital landscape.
But you CAN push back against the narrative, not necessarily to convince black women, but to convince black men.
You wanna know part of the reason why black males are so quick to see each other as “opps” and murk one another?
Because more than likely they constantly heard “nikkas ain’t shyt” rhetoric from their mothers, without seeing examples to the contrary.
I don’t think that way, because I was raised by a strong and intelligent black father. I value black men and don’t see black men as inherently evil.
But even with that influence, up until 2020 I foolishly believed that most black male fathers are deadbeats because that was constantly repeated in the media until black men online started using statistics to push back against that narrative.
When a group of people are able to push a narrative about a specific population that paints them in a negative light, it becomes difficult to empathize with the slandered population which can lead to individuals within that group being harmed.
nikkas like you are just scared and can’t bring yourself to accept the fact that, unlike other groups of men, you don’t have a “queen”.
Which is fine, but don’t try and convince other brehs to lie to themselves like you.
