Issa Rae's new show is black male bashing propaganda

[CinnaSlim]

Who was the aging wannabe rapper?

And wouldn't most men react the same way to linking up with an old flame and she immediately starts talking about a relationship on the first night? One kiss don't make a relationship.

The show is called insecure because the women are insecure. Molly is insecure about her self worth compared to non black women. She's insecure about her love life. She was talking to a cute dude at the party but she ruined it with her insecurity.

Yeah I knew what it was just by looking at the billboard. I'll stick to watching Atlanta, thanks.

Atlanta, thats the wave they trying to ride...that "I'm an intelligent black person trapped in an ignorant black world" shyt. Yea fukk all that, she c00nin (yea I know, it's said too much) for a time slot.





Update: actually watched the show and didn't think it's was sooo bad...I didn't get the male bashing element too much either, even though the creators of Atlanta/donald glover should be offended, lot of biting going on here.

I just watched the show. It was good with some funny moments here and there. I'm not sure where yall are getting this black male bashing propaganda shyt from It was actually a cool first episode. The only thing even close to being a slick comment was in the beginning when issa friend say brothas aint checkin for her so she not checkin for them. which to me is more her being bitter than anything else. And the two friends focused more on their own personal failures and "insecurities" than blaming anything on black men or bashing black men. yall nikkas cried wolf on this one.

will be watching more of this and Atlanta until I see otherwise

Lol, the gymnastics being played to make this point

So one show can be nuanced, but the show created by a male featuring men can't be nuanced?

Certainly not the argument I'm making, I believe both can be and ARE nuanced.

If you've read through the thread you see that others are suggesting that the show created by the woman lacks nuance and that's utterly false.

from the previews it looked like the typical bullshyt
she'll meet a white guy by the end of the 1st season

Probably make the white guy some great dude too. When in real life the white dude just satisfies his curiosity and bounces right back to Betty when he is finished.

what's wild is that with all this talk of white guys, there were no notable white characters in the singular episode available to watch

The fukk? I just watched this show and it didn't paint black women to be these perfect saints. It showed flaws in black women (Their insecurity and fear of being alone, need for validation, and even the fact that can be judgmental or constantly comparing themselves to other women) while pointing out flaws in black men too.

a tV show where the main characters live-in boyfriend has been unemployed for four years, sitting on her couch and eating up her food

quit adding your own little emotions to my original point

i didn't say a damn thing about them being "perfect saints"

i just pointed out that they were two professional black women surrounded by "ain't shyt" black men

funny in all of these replies that are trying to find fault with my point, NOBODY has said that these were "GREAT/GOOD/NORMAL" portrayals of black men - this must be the greatest gathering of trolls in one thread in message board history

What else would you expect from a darling of the black feminist brigade. You know the agenda by now, tear down the blk man in favor of a white Kang. One of my co workers, (manless, fat, with a dry Afro) kept raving about how hilarious and gorgeous Issa Rae is and when I finally seen her picture she looked like a young Eddie Kane in the face

 

[Lord_nikon]

This the same awkward black girl who had a cac bf ?

I knew it I told myself she either gay or has a white daddy


lol

How is a promiscuous but successful black men aka one of the most liked type of black men on the entire Coli an "ain't shyt" nikka?

How are they "ain't shyt" portrayals of black men and the women not "ain't shyt" portrayal of black women? They show flaws of both groups in various ways. Hell, a popular theme on the Coli is that being "successful" or "educated" doesn't make someone a good female and this SHOWS it.

Get the fukk over it, you whiny little bytch.

ol sensitive ass nikka

everything in that episode was regular shyt.
a professional woman with a lazy ass bf? regular shyt
tryin to hook up with ya ex from way back? regular shyt
her friend who got approached by a regular dude in the club? regular shyt

the way yall was crying about this shyt i was waitin and lookin for both them broads to be slurpin up some white boys by the end of the episode on some Scandal shyt. Funny thing is there wasn't even a single white dude in the entire episode . How you got all this 'black male propaganda' rah rah shyt from anything in this episode is a serious reach

really breh, you a lame if anything in that episode offended you

EDIT:
btw breh are you this upset with Donald Glover too? because Urn is basically in the same situation -- broke, living with his baby momma, and she fed up with the nikka
