Ja Morant thinks he a street nikka... Is this Toxic Masculinity?

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

Don’t know about Toxic Masculinity but I know about Toxic Caculinity
Post examples of Toxic Caculinity

Real men don’t use the phrase “Toxic masculinity”. Stop letting women influence your behavior

Ja is a case of black folk being disgustingly wedded to the hood. But it has nothing to do with ‘toxic masculinity’

What white person taught you that if you have a basketball court in your backyard that you can't be a thug? What black person in the history of black people said that?

Show me this list of amenities or achievements that means you can't be a thug, be gangster or be tough.

You grew up being influenced by black families on white television and think you know everything.

Dumb ass post

Exceptions don't make the rule

Never lived in the Burbs a day in my life. I've literally spoke against wealthy Black folks abandoning the “hood” for Burbs in numerous threads.

I've lived in the “hood” my whole life. I'm from BK with some roots in Harlem. Went to public schools my whole entire life not any of these all white prep schools you nikkas went through. I've seen and experienced shyt. I got Uncles and Aunts whose names ring bells in these streets for what they used to do in their past.

I don't consider myself to be some street/hood nikka but at the same time I know the streets inside and out more than some actual dudes that be in the street and I ain't bragging either just saying.

My point is that just because a person grew up within a whole family doesn't mean that they're supposed to be some prototypical Carlton type cornball nikka and that it's abnormal to be anything opposite of a Carlton. My mom and dad grew up in the hoods of the 70s and 80s NY and had good jobs but never packed up and left for the Burbs and neither have I despite working a good job I've stayed true to myself.

There's a lot of Black ppl who grew up in stable households with two working parents and still haven't succumbed to being cornball Carlton and Hillary types... having a stable household with two parents doesn't mean you grew up in the Burbs.

Plenty of ppl in the hood grew up in stable households and with two parents present so it's not just a suburb thing.

Personality goes a long way and y'all nikkas just wack and corny

Reading through this thread y'all nikkas really are a bunch of miserable Carltons nerdy asses the ones I knew in school were built much different than a lot of you...nerdy but at the same time they were actually alright.

Y'all new corny nerds just wack and try to hard.

What's lame is not knowing your lane
You don't know shyt
Take a nap

Crazy how in the coliseum we all agreed ja on sum bullshyt

TLR full of contrarians, this nikka cosplaying as a retired street nikka in the NBA and fools talkin bout that’s cool it’s just trash talk

Lol ite, keep acting like U don’t see it, they want nikkas to be from the slums or have a dikk in they booty.

When will y'all realize that this is just how a lot of young nikkas especially those who grew up and lived around Black ppl for most of their young lives talk in general so none of those tweets really imply or equate to what you think he's saying.



Most of you dudes grew up in all white settings and can't relate or understand the point...

Y'all act like just because a nikka grew up with a whole family that they're supposed to be a carbon copy of a Carlton type from the way he dresses and talks you dudes really are some corny nerdy nikkas even worse than the ones I knew in school and they weren't really bad.

Me and my siblings grew up in a two parent household in which both parents had great jobs and ain't none of us grew up to be cornballs or whatever y'all think a person is supposed to be after growing up in that type of household

Ngga shut up


Ja goes above and beyond. ‘Spin the block’. ‘Won’t talk about it’. He’s a fukkin minstrel. People use that lingo in IG pic captions. This dumbass talks like this 100%. It’s overkill.

There’s plenty other players his age that don’t do it to the point it’s awkwardly noticeable like him. Melo Ball has NO chill, no media training, ghetto af (we won’t talk about his actual upbringing), and even he isn’t this goofy with it. Anthony Edwards is from THE trap, the literal center of the entire culture where most of this lingo originates, and even he don’t go overboard sounding like this. Ja is lame

Name a list of amenities or achievements that mean you can't be hood or a thug or tough.

I'll wait.

I’m dying at the fact that the young breh talking trash about a Christmas Day basketball game turned into this

 

[Hey_zeus]

I want to like Ja...

Basketball players are some of the most pampered Black men on the planet.

- Gangs leave them alone, give them a pass.
- CACs love them
- They've never thrown hands
- Rappers love them
- Thots love them

Their minds are detached from reality.

I remember seeing Devin Booker trying to act tough

Yall remember the Nate Robinson fight.

He was another hothead in the league.

This is projection like shyt. These dudes definitely pampered. But I wouldn’t say cacs love them. In fact most prolly despise them. And they do get touched if they dont move right. Look at Paul Pierce. And I definitely knew some legit hoopers coming up who had hands

Tell ‘em again..

Ant from one of the worst and most improvised hoods in Atlanta. Before scouts and coaches got hip to him and had him playing ball at that private school in the rich part of town this nikka literally went to one of the worst rated high schools not just in Atlanta but the whole state of GA. Therrell High aka “Thug High” & don’t be on that “spin the block” and “hallow points” tough guy talk
