Why do most educated/higher class black people look down on hood blacks?

[Sad Bunny]

When I was younger and ratchet ..even older educated blacks would look like when me and my nikkas was causing mayhem in the city

I feel like those black Republicans just be like and disassociate their self from lower class blacks

Looking down is the whole purpose of climbing up

Looking down is the whole purpose of climbing up

"I made it and I'm black why can't you?"

Because although they have accumulated more wealth they still adopt a 2nd class status in the master /slave dynamic

So when you have a people who feel like the standard of success is white folks and everything good is white folks, so them having money and accomplishments is a white folk thing, and because they accept being the slave in that dynamic, they in addition to gaining success want to be on they best behavior in the face of they master

The "hood" people in their minds make them look bad in the face of they oppressor.

In slave times white beast would sometimes beat they own slaves if they heard about another slave who ran away elsewhere to instill the fear that they slave better never try what that runaway slave tried. This begun this attitude among us that 1 slave doing something "stupid" in our minds looks bad for every one of us. It's why so many slaves discouraged slaves from running away cause they knew massa was going to come down harder on the ones who remained behind.

Another let's magnify an issue like its a "black" problem
We gone act like cacs and every other race dont do the same

Probably because you and your nikkas cause mayhem and don't know how to fukking act like civilized human beings...


Just a guess

I used to be like this


Then I realized it may of been white oppression making me think hood blacks were bad. I got conscious and changed it up on some "we are the world shyt"

However after a while hood nikkas do a lot more negative things and have a lot more negative thinking.




I no longer associate with them bc there's just too much bad shyt that happens. I don't look down but I don't chill in that environment its toxic ​

Exactly, what the fukk? Acting like successful White dudes tend to be buddy buddy with trailer/white trash and shyt

Black people take too much pride in being from the hood. It probably was a defense mechanism to coverup for shame, but now people (especially in the rap community) romantacize ghetto life like its the thing to be! fukk that..

Frankly I don't care about your ghetto upbringing or your prison stories. shyt is played out now. It's time for our culture to evolve.

Shhhh... let him

 

[Handsback]

Cuz they thought it was a shame you didn't have a family that cared enough not to allow you to act like a piece of shyt.

So we seem to be stuck between expecting those better educated and better connected members of the community to be involved role models, and this idea that they're being paternalistic when they do.

If we want things to get straightened out, then we should be cool when fatherless ragamuffins get snatched by the back of the neck and told to sit the fukk down.

Its not the same though, with every other race they get to the top and they look down on everyone. Poor people are just poor people, but even within that group of poor people black people are looked at as the scum of poor people.

Black people not wanting to be around other black people or looking down on other black people is a black problem, all that means is they are going to seek the company of other races as the get other and higher up because of the lack of black people in america already, let alone the lack of black people in higher positions.


I dont hang with hood nikkas at all anymore, I know like a goon or two and we seldom actually hang out. I've come up, but my mom still lives in the hood my aunt and family still does, and I still feel comfortable going through and hanging out at those spots. Its feels like home, I understand the plight of trying to make it out of there.


Hood blacks are some of the realest people on the planet, there is a big difference in a hood nikka and those clown nikkas. I cant deal with clowns.
