What exactly did Black Immigrants do that caused so much Vitriol online?

[Uncouth Savage]

They didn’t feel the need to learn anything about black culture because they feel they are above it so when they hear an elementary school kid make a joke they think it’s a personal attack on their ethnicity meanwhile they think actual slurs about black American ethnicity is normal and we’re tripping for saying something about grown adults using it in our country that we made legal for them to come here.

Who exactly taught that insult to use against African immigrants?

as in where did it come from
so many blk americans did not just wake up one day and say that sentence

any history on it?
from the media? a movie?

It was from a movie from the 70s if I recall. Regardless it was used about anybody darkskin nobody was actually thinking about Africans we didn’t even start knowing people were Africans in real life in any numbers till the 2010s.

It's just a small but vocal pocket of weirdos online

Because black people are more courageous against other blacks.

Same reason why there's so much confict and violence WITHIN black ethnic groups.

A black person will kill another black person for the most minor offense..... death penalty for the smallest disrespect..... but do we react with the same rage towards whites?

when the cops come.... nikkas run..... meanwhile the black man gets the death penalty.

That’s what arrogance gets you.

Oh well.

Interesting, for my next question would have been, that most of you never met an African.

So you are calling any child who is dark skinned, big nose, big lips a booty scratcher?
even though they not African, they look African

that is so sad

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

I think that's where some of the anti-Black American sentiment comes from. The problem is that native Black Americans succeed as well but they know how the US is and know it's an open air prison where cacs will always destroy whatever Black people create.

Black immigrants though don't know that. They really do think the streets are paved with gold.

By the 2nd generation though many of them figure it out and realize that it was a mistake to come here to begin with.

This is 100% facts

No most of it comes from the type of African Americans immigrants first interacted with when they just arrived.
Most immigrants moved into some of the worst hoods then either branched to the burbs or spread out like Caribbeans did.

A lot of these insults were engrained in anti-blackness. The blacker and more African your features were the worst you had it.
It's the reason why Haitians and of course Africans got the brunt of it.

 

[Justin Nitsuj]

I'm just tired of the nonsense among black people all over the world.

They say strength comes in numbers.

Don't y'all realize how much stronger and dangerous we could be if we all came together as one, no matter where you from?

That's a dope sight to see. And I hope to live to see that.

The image of it happening just hit me, and how sad it is.
I have heard those "jokes", as an adult, just thinking of it happening is fukkin sad man.
Kids cannot process things like that.
We have to do better.

 

[YaThreadFloppedB!]

if you speak against or disrespect my ethnic group (black american), ima say some shyt back.

 

[SupaDupaFresh]

This shyt is never going to die. Swear on God I'm considering just going on a total internet fast this year.

Maybe just a good month of no message boards, no social media, no coli, no MAGA shyt, no politics, no ADOSFBANCAAXYZ!!!, no toxic hateful self-victimizing nonsense about "these black immigrants" from people desperate for self importance, no nothing like that.

Just real living. I haven't done something local in a whwile. Maybe check out some clubs and events in Harlem. Enjoy a great show with black people, Americans, Caribbeans and Africans alike. Then after that maybe me and a friend will check out a Reggae wine festival. Enejoy some music and wine tasting with black folks. Americans, Caribbeans and Africans alike. Just see what's out there.

I'll be on the lookout for any black immigrants disrespecting or talking down on the foundational black Americans. But I have a feeling that will not happen. I mean a really really strong feeling. Almost as if this shyt only exists among you role playing intellect nerds while everyone else has no idea what the fukk anyone here is talking about. And I'm becoming ashamed I even participate in this nonsense.

I thought this stupid shyt was deaded in 2022 but, yeah, this is getting ridiculous.

Do you not have wite people you consider different from most other wite people?
they might be a friend, from school or work

if you said that wite person is "a good one" vs what you consider the majority racist
is that a bad thing?

I am pointing out that WE ALL have stereotypes
that breaks the more knowledge and experience we get

yes a person should be knowledgeable on all things and not discriminate or stereotype in ignorance
that is not how the world works

YOU have things you think you know

for example how can a person call you lazy if you more accomplished than them?

and could be the person is correct?
could you really be lazy
we talking about YOU not blk americans
if you are a lazy person then why complain?

No I don't tokenize white ppl. That's how you get ppl praising them for basic decency or for knowing how to dance. I'm good on that.

That said, all your paragraphs come off as obtuse and disingenuous. "Why complain"?? Why complain about another person from the Diaspora repeating white supremacist notions and microaggressions while benefitting from movements Black Americans headed and died for?? The "I'm just asking questions" routine is tired and late

It is a serious question
if you a lazy person

why would you be angry if I or your mother or a wite person says it?
if you lazy you damn lazy

now if that is not who you are then of course you can be offended

what you will not do though is hide behind the collective
as if you represent all blk americans

if someone is telling you the truth why complain?

if I am lazy and someone says I am lazy why would I get mad?

me the individual
you the individual
not no collective

is there such a thing as admitting to our own faults?

 

[The Pledge]

Usually, in real life, bickering between black Americans and African immigrants would some isolated incidents (Africans holding stereotypes against ADOS as being lazy, violent, rude, jealous, etc., ADOS holding stereotypes against Africans as being backwards, undeveloped, weird, silly, submissive towards whites)

But again, this was mostly isolated incidents. Most interactions were fine.

Then suddenly in the last few years, it became this big topic online, that was made worse by online losers deciding to take the bait so they could get a power trip (etc. "Africans are smarter and better than you, youre slaves!" Or "all you africans are c00ns" with some stereotypical exagerrated african names or jokes) instead of downvoting and reporting the content.

The reality is that most ADOS and most Africans don't really have any strong feelings against each other. Some adults may hold some stereotypes, but only few of them hold them strongly. For most it's not even a common subject that gets brought up.

But the issue is that the strongest vocal minority always has to project their feelings, and people who respond to it feel the need to defend their side, thus amplifying this divide.

Pretty much spot on.
