Thoughts? Justin Timberlake BLASTED For Tweeting About Jesse Williams 2016 BET Awards Speech

[AllUniverse17]

This thread is so weird.

Ya'll get mad at white people who WANT to hear us out when we speak on issues.

Shit is just funny...

 

[water]

You can't have it both ways. When white people are willing to help fight our cause we can't be lashing out at them.

JT said he was willing to fight?

I missed that

 

[water]

i agree we are the superior race and with that we must lead and teach. its more about them wanting our acceptance we dont need their acceptance. its messed up when we got an asset but we treat them like a enemy. they do need fixing and when some try to understand we condemn them.

we treat them like an enemy?


who is dying in the streets from cops?

who is being discriminated for jobs to put food on the table?

who is being over disciplined in schools and medicated?

they treat us like we enslaved them for 400 years

so of course if after 400 years they pretend not to understand then how many more fucking years does it take?

let them do the fucking work

it is not our job to make them understand

that is their fucking job

[Sampson]

Ya'll are really bitter over the Janet shit, huh

Question...what has Janet ever done for black people...spoken up about?

 

[jack walsh13]

Man, Justin Timberlake backed out of that Janet Jackson nipple thing like the Kool-Aid man on Family Guy

Great way to put that.

 

[playahaitian]

Why do people take Twitter so seriously? It's just a bunch of people sitting around waiting on something to happen so they can jump on it.

A lot of people say that

But obviously it's more than that

people have lost jobs, been arrested, committed suicide, made money and as in this case potentially jeopardized their careers off it

so we have passed the point of asking why social media has the power and influence it does....

The better questions are why are we still not better at using it for our own devices?

If JT who is far from a social media rookie had ignored this?

Crickets

But a very very cynical person would say that JT yet AGAIN got caught in an uncomfortable situation of his own making and somehow someway came out looking like the innocent white victim.

And this is coming from someone who didn't even think his intial tweet was an issue.

But we all can't act like the tweet about him being a vulture ain't true?

Cause it is.

But as usual we gonna say it wasn't the time or place for all that.

Ya'll realize there are white folks who are saying the same damn thing about Jesse speech itself?

It wasn't the time and place for all that especially on Nickelodeon? Kids don't need to hear or see all that!

Teen Nick...where they have had shows on rape, drugs, cross dressing, guns, homosexuality all before 9 pm?

But the light skin guy talking black people standing up for themselves is a danger?

 

[Rembrandt]

honestly i think anyone who took the replied tweet as Justin not understanding that black people have it different is an idiot and a big issue I have with this social media stuff. Folks intentionally misunderstand you or act like it just to attack.

How about so many folks wasted energy on this a day after that speech and it did absolutely nothing to bring down someone who is actually holding black people back or disenfranchising us in any form or faction. Once again the easy target and we go at him with BS anger just cause we can. it's dumb.

and him being a vulture- not really going there with that. Once he started getting to sing leads on songs we got "gone". He is from a blue town, just cause he started off with Disney and pop doesn't mean he is a vulture when his solo music has a different sound to it. Too many folks worried about someone "tweeting" or being seen doing something but if Timbaland calls him and has him write a check for something he is doing in VA we will never know but he has 'helped'. We want people to do what we want, the way we want, and on our schedule. we even do it to our own and folks swear they know everything. Everyone doesn't need to be the front line if they help in other ways.

I agree. It is just sad. The level of ignorance is disturbing.

 

[AllUniverse17]

where was that? i missed that part?

Oh you missed all the fuck him this, fuck him that, i hate when cacs like him do this and that... Even twisting his words pretending he said racism doesnt exist...

Did you read through this thread at all?

 

[Maxxam]

 

[AllUniverse17]

shit i missed that too

can you post that shit

I did post it.

So... You dont want cacs to listen to anything we have to say, but you also want things to get better. How is that supposed to happen? There will be no action without understanding first.

 

[Amajorfucup]

You never see white people jump in front of bullets for blacks when they meet a public shit storm.

Completely agree.... On all of this.

 

[rage]

All white people are racist under the system of white supremacy.

Justin Timberlake is just a very refined racist who learned how to imitate music from black singers, dancers, and musicians.

Some of the people in here probably feel guilty because they actually like his "music" so they feel obligated to defend him.

 

[SKATTA]

I can't throw shade at Justin Timberlake. At the height of his popularity he decided to move back to Tennessee and has focused on starting projects and investing in the Memphis community. I didn't see anything wrong with his comment. I also think we need to get off this White musician stealing our music shit. Good music is good music. Who cares who sings. I'd rather listen to JT over 90% of the bullshit coming out of the mainstream these days.

Most of the music you post is from white folks,so this is expected coming from you.

 

[SKATTA]

Stop it with this stealing shit. If you don't like white people so much why do you use the Internet. White people invented the Internet. Again stop it with your over excessive bullshit.

[Aww Skeet Skeet!]

I don't dislike his music. And I didn't have a problem with his first tweet.

But this "we are one, one for all" bullshit irks me. So many folks (white people, Pharrell, That's so Raven, millennials, etc) believe the illusion, and it's simply not true. Thus, I spoke on it.

Do I believe JT used black culture for professional gains? Yes. Do I think it was fucked up for JT to not say anything about the Janet incident? Yes (white privilege helped him avoid backlash). Do I think JT is a racist? In the broader sense of the word, No.

Props to the troll though for getting a true response from him.

 

[deputy dawg]

Justin got the "Black experience" when he walked into Black twitter according to Trevor Noah/Roy Wood Jr.- on The Daily Show.

 

[GAMETHEORY]

why and how is this important to black people??

 

[4 Dimensional]

Fuck that Cac.

 

[water]

I did post it.

So... You dont want cacs to listen to anything we have to say, but you also want things to get better. How is that supposed to happen? There will be no action without understanding first.

so you really think after 400 years of oppression that the cac problem is understanding how his foot on our neck is suppressing us?


ok then

good luck out here


you definitely somewhere on the bottom tier of the social ladder

where white people are your friends once you stick to the mail room and be the help and not pose an economic threat to them

all this police brutality

and that mofo JT NEVER said one word


but all of a sudden we are one

 

[4 Dimensional]

why and how is this important to black people??

It's not, but social media can turn a hill into a mountain in no time.

 

[water]

See why i love Dr Henrik Clarke?

He said "black" tells you how you look

It doesn't tell who you are

There are some white mofos with black skin walking

fuck Tank

[water]

This thread is so weird.

Shit is just funny...

We don't want their ears

We want justice

It took 400 years


And mofos still can't acknowledge the fuckery they put us through after seeing, hearing on video, in real life

And you still want their motherfucking ears?

We would have still being on a plantation with your fucking tactics.

Justin laid down that equivalent All-Lives-Matter comment....., that's why it's important. He needs to be checked.

I normally ask cacs, matter to whom?

cops?


then i ask what is the extent of their concern for black lives then?

what are they doing to demonstrate that black lives matter as a part of the all lives matter concept
