I am not making excuses for shytty behavior...
If somebody said some racialized shyt at me...Ima say it back....
Like I am for the stupid shyt......
This is the problem with Black people 100 percent...
Black people think everybody can win...
Black people think the world holds some type of morality...
And as a DOS, I know it doesn't...
We know immigrants look down on Black Americans and avoid us like a plague. It is a historical trait of American immigrants...
I don't know how many times us Black Americans gotta hear about how we don't have a culture or we don't know where we come from or that we fail because we don't work hard enough...blah blah blah...
USA is a ground zero battlefield for capital and wealth...that's what the USA is about...that's why people come here...
You don't meet that kind of ferocity and disdain people have for you with niceness and meekness and unity and understanding and love...
Somebody is gonna lose and the people that lose get to have the meek attitude and niceness and the unity and understanding and the love...cause they don't have shyt to defend themselves with...
That's DOS right now...that'ts why DOS welcome every single non-White motherfukker with open arms...
And you can't pay your bills or send your kids to college with that...matter of fact...the people that we greet with open arms...get to pay their bills and send their kids to college off...we can't...
Like I like to say all the time...
Black people don't understand politics and what it is about...
Politics is about who gets what and who doesn't get what...
Politics is about violence and who has to die by that the violence and who gets live by it...
When it comes to Africans vs. DOS...
Like I said and what Yvette pointed out...there is no word that we have for Africans that means some variant of wild beasts...or cat or whatever the fukk...
There is innate anti-DOS in African immigrant culture...
And then..they come to our country and mingle with us and get to benefit off of us...and use our culture and plight to propel themselves to the highest segments of USA society...and we cheer them on...cause we think we are them and they are us...
but in the comfort of their own homes...we are Akata....
You know how insidious that shyt is..we were sold by them them and Europeans caused us to be here...
So when you point to the insidious nature of DOS and African relationships on the ground...in real life and the real impact of it...not some Pan African bullshyt fantasy land...it's not gonna sound nice, with love and understanding...and unity and all that loser shyt...
It gonna sound like it really is...and it's gonna be divisive and sound hateful and angry and all types of shyt because this is politics...this is how you build a politics that is necessary to get what you want...
You can't get what you want if you don't sort out who gets what...
That means for the USA and what us DOS want out of the USA for us and only us...
Either you understand it as a Black immigrant and be an ally or you don't get it and you complain and say it is hateful...
