"The Reason Africans Cant See Black Ppl As Equals Or Good Ppl" (AKATA Vs AFRICANS)

[Voice of Reason]

And away we go...

This is what we call "projection" people. It's when you accuse others of doing things that you only do. In this case, his accusation that all Africans talk down about to African Americans reflects his own penchant for talking down about Africans and Caribbeans, unsolicited. No one has insulted or thrown derogatory terms at anyone on the basis of their ethnicity except himself.

I never said anything negative about anyones ethnicity . It’s the folks that rep 3/4 flags and think that they are the authority on all matters everywhere that are funny. Rep your flag but don’t try to shyt on my people or act like you have the right to critique us. That’s the premise of this thread, an international citizen thinking she can critique our community.

You guys are the insecures oones ooh boo boo someone called me an akata

So you admit the word is a derogatory slur. About damn time.

 

[Afrodroid]

At this point, cacs don't have to do anything else, just say "let them fight" while they steal all our resources and keep us at the bottom of the barrel

Cause no Nigerian has called a black American an akata in their prescence

this is not his site either nor a black American site

Again, he didn't say it was. This site revolves around AA culture. And here you are, on this site, soaking it up and discussing it.

There's no shame in that, I promise. We're dope as fukk. I'd wanna be in the mix, too.

How is it that when an anti-black c00n is posted, FBAs get together and start a roast session and denounce said person. But when an anti-FBA c00n is posted, the foreign flags come together and start deflecting, calling OP divisive, and proceed to gaslight FBAs like we can't see with our own eyes whats happening. We can talk shyt about black women or black men, black culture, how FBAs need to do better culturally and all this, but the moment you say anything about a non-FBA, its "diaspora wars."

It happens EVERY SINGLE TIME too. Without fail.

Since we having a little mini-purge on the "diaspora war" shyt in this thread...i just came in here to say this whole "yall need to run your new group names by us....we don't approve of ADOS or FBA" shyt needs to stop. It's a weak argument. It never has anything to do with anything other than to pivot the conversation into shallow back and forths. And it wreaks of that paternalistic white supremacist shyt.

I thought another mod said you can be banned for posts like this. Did the ban go away?

You can be and in fact a handful of the most recently bushed brehs are there for making incendiary posts. It’s a double standard because he’s a mod.

That person is not even a Yoruba person this is what I mean Main character syndrome and a victim complex it’s a Yoruba word that means stray cat or black panthers which is metaphor for africans that don’t live in Africa which refers to the African diaspora it’s not derogatory but can be used IN a derogatory mannner it’s similar to oyingbo which refers to a white person

That is the original meaning, but you know it is used as a derogatory term when talking about Black Americans.

"The word Akata is a term of degradation, not a term of endearment. It is a divisive slur, and as a result it has caused the opposite of solidarity. It has contributed to the “Otherizing” of native Black Americans and has driven a wedge between those who use the word Akata and those who get called the word Akata."

“Akata is hate speech” by Kofi Changamire

Also, you seem to have no clue what main character syndrome means. It is almost like you just learned the word, but do not know what context to use it in. Main Character syndrome requires the person to overly dramatize their life. Exposing lies told about how a word is used is not that, but your attempts to hide the truth exposes your disingenuous nature.

No Nigerian is dumb enough to knowingly do that in our presence, you mean. They will do it online though, or say it when thinking they are not talking to one of us. Also, your statement implies that you know the word is being used and it is in fact being used in your presence.

What the hell is with the presumption that anyone who doesn’t like this bullshyt isn’t black American?

Akata is different from Akater. Hard “er”.

Just like cacs play dumb when they throw "thug" around, these West Africans will go into etymology lessons instead of talking about how, when, and about whom the word is used.

He did presume, but do you also come in and ask for threads to be bushed when they are talking negatively about Black Americans? If you do, than no matter what your ethnicity is, you are then doing nothing wrong. But, if you don't, then you are being very biased in your complaints about this issue.
