Damn Man A Nigga Can't Watch Shit Anymore
- Thread starter The Untouchable GDFOLKS
- Start date
I already mentioned the Great Society programs earlier which is what you're referencing now. So, which is it -- the government or what's on TV affecting the Black family the most?all those factors have existed for centuries and black folk never gave an inch
then the government got black women to kick men out of the home and leave our children defenseless to indoctrination
now there are more non heteros than ever and more black suicides
neither is a coincidence
If the problem is complicated wouldn't that mean the causes are complicated? Just boiling it down to gays on TV is overly simplistic. Maybe that is a factor but that can't be the only or biggest factor around.
Honestly, the best solution is investing in Black-admistered private schools. CAC Evangelicals have been against modern culture for decades so they set up their own schools and have their own forms of entertainment. That's the only solution I can see.

Well, while I don't have a bar graph for you, I would say American black people being disenfranchised economically, academically, politically, and socially is a start.
Agreed. So how would you tackle that? Would change what's on the TV first or start someplace else?
I'm of the mind that we can tackle more than one at a time. It starts within, though, so we have to address our our dysfunction as individuals first

We are past that point. And I agree, we have to take the reigns of our households and hold tight.
In order to control someone or something, you must first break its' inclinations to do something other than what you want it to.
It benefits those seeking profit to have broken families, much in the same way that it benefits makeup companies, clothing companies, junk food manufacturers, etc. to keep women depressed.
In order to sell you something, profiteers need for you to think that you need it in the first place. Government knew that if they were going to control black families, they first need to break the hold the black male had in the family. This technique is old and many societies were conquered this way. They would always kill the men and boys in the families, rape the women and girls and that left them broken and dependent on them.
That being said, please continue to discuss the phenomenon of LGBT influx in media and how it affects black households, since that was the original topic.
Its interesting to see the responses in this thread.
Right
There was a lesbian scene.
The problem there is that broken families tend to have less disposable income. No one would accuse capitalists/corporations of playing the long game, they tend to care more about making as much profit as possible as quickly as possible, but this would just hurt their profit margin down the line.
Like Road Rage said in an earlier comment, people like to splurge on stuff for their kids whether it's toys or clothing. Intact families would be more able to do this since they're more financially stable on average.
I've already said my piece on the LGBT stuff. Basically my view there is the same as it is for any content people deem inappropriate for families/children -- don't watch it or don't allow your children to watch it and monitor your children's media.
That said, it wouldn't be a bad idea for shows to announce that it's a pro-LGBT show. It would be similar to how certain churches use the label "open and affirming" to show that they're LGBT-welcoming.

For so many of us, queerness is not about who we lay with at night.

It was a small scene but if you google “Wakanda Forever lesbian” you will find dozens of articles ranging from the pressure from LGBTQ to have gay representation (prior to the film release), to how happy lesbians were in having a lesbian scene, to how disappointed gays were that there wasn’t more gay scenes, to how mad Africans are that there were was any gay innuendo in a kid’s film based on their land and customs. It’s really fucked up. Nothing trumps how LGBTQ changed Latino/Latina to Latinx though. That’s crazy.
So they consider a chick kissing ( a quick peck) on the top of the head a lesbian scene?… hell that literally could’ve been 2 sisters doing that same scene on some thanks for saving my ass big sis ( quick peck on the head) than happy music plays…if you would’ve blinked you would’ve missed itMichaela Coel Joined "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" Specifically to Play a Lesbian

TV? don't watch it anymore, all internet here.
I get uncomfortable if I watch tv too long. Voice in my head, "Aight enough, I got shit to do!"

We're talking government here. Governments want control, i.e., to govern. They get their financial backing from the middle class. They're not looking for money from the economically oppressed. They are looking for control and manipulation via social experimentation. They won't see what can break the middle class families of America because that's how they get their money. If they have already oppressed you systemically, financially and educationally, they just need you complicit in repetitive behavior like, going into the prison system, killing each other, robbing each other, not voting, etc. They want to keep our black asses busy with each other, or worried about the other others (immigrants) or their disposable whites (the trailer park-ers).
Corporations want "all the monies" but governments want to keep you in line in some way while selling you the freedom lie. Throw in a few Oprahs, Obamas and athletes to sell your ass a dream and you have a working model of a functioning containment field, powered by the people in it.
Agreed. They've also fooled certain people, well-represented on this board, that it's the mark of an "independent thinker" to voluntarily opt out of doing some of the things we should be doing such as voting. The "both sides" people whose only real argument is that we should sit out voting.
At the end of the day, you have two choices: government or anarchy. Anarchy doesn't necessarily mean chaos but given the natural inclination of people, it would likely turn into that, for awhile. Eventually a new government will come about that's likely much worse than the last one.
The only solution to all of this is education and I'm not only talking about what you're taught in school. Critical thinking, being able to identify logical fallacies, is fundamental.
All that being said, there is still an over-compensation in Hollywood to virtue signal inclusiveness.
Liberal Hollywood has a larger proportion of LGBT community employment than many other industries and it tends to over-represent. They view it more of as what they want the world to be rather than what it is.
Of course, as you said, you can simply not watch. That's what I do.
I think the complaint is people dislike being blindsided by random "activities" that seem to be thrown in gratuitously. People don't want to be force-fed the imagery.
The LGBT community tends toward the performative arts, the stereotypes about gay men liking show tunes and such, and films are exactly that. And most of the people who aren't gay themselves in that industry tend to be supportive because they know plenty of gay people.
Now if you're a person who doesn't like seeing that content, the best solution apart from a full media blackout is to read social conservative-leaning movie review sites that lists the content you may find objectionable. It's about being proactive instead of reactive.
This is why YouTube is so popular.
You CREATE YOUR OWN PROGRAMMING through your search history.
TV SETS your programming cause they schedule whatever they want whenever. That's why you get Die Hard movies at holidays every year, etc.
YouTube knows what I like and they give it to me.

that is the main reason i download my content, where as most people are into streaming.
I have no subscriptions, aside from a Peacock one i have never used.
regular TV only for sports or the news.
i control what i watch and when.
i love the movie Willow and was excited to aatch the Disney series. about 30 minutes into it they sprung a deep lesbian kiss on the viewers between 2 main characters.
i cut that shit off.

I hear ya. I especially hate those faggoty Old Spice Body Wash commercials. I like Deon Cole as a comedian but producers have him acting weak as Hell in those commercials. Imagine a grown ass black man coming out in a fluffy robe in near tears because his wife used his body wash with shay butter. That's what they have Deon doing.
Wow..they couldn't leave Willow alone?
Nah. The best thing someone can do is stop supporting the sponsors of the shows that blindside people and demand warnings be put on shows. Proactive; not reactive. The problem is that people these days don't seem to know how to protest with their pockets.
How are you going to protest the advertisers who are showing the same images you’re so revolted by?
You’re not part of the demographic — some of you black guys are going to end up in a bad spot in a couple years. You’ll be MAGA in no time.

Virtue signaling is the path to acceptance of anything.
Shaming language doesn't work on me.
I can be not interested in being bombarded by LGBT sexual imagery and hope that Trump goes to jail. Both things are possible. There is a such thing as being too liberal. That doesn't make someone a conservative. It just means there is a such thing as the far left.
