Its simple. Alternative (may or may not be from tha burbs, may or may not be biracial) nikkas who feel disillusioned from tha black community due to varying reasons, and therefore have major identity issues, have seen tha recent uptick in tha media attention given to tha harsh realities of being black in america as their way to latch on to some sort of identity, they see it as a trend, and treat it as such. A very juvenile way of thinking. it can be compared to an insecure teenager who doesnt feel like they belong, so they attach themselves to a clique 4 a sense of belonging, or a street gang. U can call this gang tha 'woke' gang
now u have certain sets of tha 'woke' gang. Like tha 'hotep' set. or tha 'shea butter' set. Just like a real gang, tha 'woke' gang has even developed its own lingo(an example of this would be 'misogynoir'). This serves 2 purposes:
1: to further tha sense of identity within tha 'woke' gang.
2: When a person uses these terms, they become easily identifiable as a 'woke' gang member, letting them know they're on tha same team.
Nonetheless, tha goal of most of their validation seeking members remains tha same. Mirror mirror on tha wall, to prove tht they are tha wokest of them all. Just as overzealous low level gang members commit gruesome and dangerous crimes to prove tht they are 'hard enough', members of the 'woke' gang participate in what they believe are acts of 'wokeness', which basically amounts to posturing on social media. "Look at this #blackgirl/boy magic shirt i'm wearing, i'm so woke!
" "My afro is nappier than yours, i'm so woke!" "My black soap and kente cloth is imported straight from Lagos, i'm so woke!" "Look at me, i traveled to baton rouge to hold up a #blacklivesmatter sign, i'm woker than all yall
" All it is is empty posturing for social media validation. Pretty lame if u ask me. Hell u even see it on here. So many outlandish comments have been uttered on this site all in tha name of a dap+rep. nikkas will post one thing, and then contradict themselves 2 months later if it goes with tha coli flavor of tha week.
Im willing to bet tha majority of tha posters on here on tha extra tryhard rara hotep shyt can count on one hand tha number of black ppl theyve associated themselves with in their lives, not including family, b4 they found this site. tha shyt is see thru like generic toilet paper bruh. the saying 'thou doth protest too much' comes 2 mind. Think about this. Take a look at all tha outspoken black political/social figures throughout tha last century. mlk. malcolm x. marcus garvey. medgar evers. muhammad ali. tupac shakur. When have they ever felt tha need to prove to anybody how 'woke' they are, or tht they were proud 2 be black? they knew tha situation our ppl were in, felt strongly about it, and did something about it tht had tangible results. we need more of tht. less social media posturing for validation. this aint no woke pageant bih

trying to hide their blackness and for proof look for any thread on this site on black women into cosplay or whatever alt shyt and you will see them saying the same thing.
the show is a hit here and this seems like the most straightforward way of referencing the show on merchandise. Why are we even trying to go so in-depth with this?
.
how the fukk were they planning on getting liberation with this shyt?"
