Ehhhh....nah.
It's definitely appealing to more than that alleged subgroup brehs love deflating and dismissing. shyt is on fire, being retweeted, shared , and discussed by the avg love and hip hop watching jawn....and her upper middle class cousin...and her rat sister in the section 8.
All types are absorbing and spreading this fukkshyt. The dismissal and "I'm above it/don't see it" has to go. That's how these extremist cacs got so big and surprised DISMISSIVE brehs who don't observe things outside of their bubbles.

Regardless, it does need to be (repeatedly) counterattacked by folks like Dr. Tommy Curry.

You don't feel like African American men don't have a greater direct effect on our community than white men?
Nah. Not in our lifetime. Too much interference and "feel good" assisted "Independence"...Black men don't have the financial or political capital for that. Black women are the bigger consumers, have the higher numbers, and are catered to more by academia...and Human Resource departments. Our social arrangement doesn't mirror white folks.

No one in the Black community has privilege. No one. Certainly none worth division.

But even though black boys and men now trail black girls and women in virtually all life metrics (education, employment, head-of-household status, life expectancy, rate of crime victimization, rate of incarceration, homelessness) we do not accuse black women of being advantaged or "privileged."

In the late 90s and early 2000s, we were inundated with reports of how black women were scaling society's
heights, while black men were falling way behind.

Since this fairly recent trend of accusing black men of somehow being "privileged" became the rage, many of those "sisters are stomping the brothers'" studies are disappearing online.

From Newsweek 2003 before the distorted "black males are privileged" narrative began to take hold:
