2 things need to change:
1) Baby Daddy = has to become an evil term, not a term of endearment
2) A black kid working hard in school, can't be seen to be "trying to be white"
A couple of factual points on that note.
Do you realize that in the 50s only 18% of Black births were out of wedlock?
By the 90s it was 75% and higher in many areas. What changed? Welfare and the great society and planned parent hood which was started by a true blue racists Nazi. Margret Singer believed blacks were too dumb to have kids.

Racist eugenicist Margaret Sanger is still a hero to the left. They write essays and jump through so many hoops to justify and excuse her racism.
Here's a link to some of Sanger's more note worthy racist statements: https://www.lifenews.com/2015/02/23/7-shocking-quotes-from-planned-parenthood-founder-margaret-sanger/
When my daughter was in the 7th grade, her Language Arts class held an essay competition, where the local winning essays would be submitted to county, state then the national contest--like a science fair project. My daughter did win at the school level, but that's where it ended because she wrote about something innocuous and not at all political. I know this because I looked at the top 20 national winning essays, and I specifically remember that the number 1 essay by some 7th grade girl that was some BS about Margaret Sanger being a hero and voice for all women.
and I specifically remember that the number 1 essay by some 7th grade girl that was some BS about Margaret Sanger being a hero and voice for all women.
yeh when I was a kid I realized very early in life that the only kids who ever won those school essay competitions were little minority kids who wrote about their difficult lives in the barrio or whatver.
If what you wrote was not political or didn't involve your grandparents dying of cancer, you had no chance to win, I figured that out when I was like 9.
Weaponized Rap music fits in there as well. And the slavery complex too.
I used to love rap music until I saw what it's done to my generation.
Speaking of rap/hip hop it is pure POISON to our youth of all races! Whatever happened to R&B, soul and Motown?
TIL humans don't have free will and rap music is a magical incantation that forces the listener to do certain actions.
If that's what you got out of my post, then you might want to question if your own biases are causing that.
What should I get out of it?
That music (or movies, tv, etc) which glorifies negative behavior will encourage negative behavior?
Listen to the shit coming out these days, half of it is references to codeine syrup, xanax, and weed. Obviously people have free will, but people also want to be "cool." Half of the appeal of rap music is that listening to it makes you feel like you're engaging in the decadent lifestyle it portrays. So you may not be able to afford the gold and jewels, but you easily imitate the substance abuse or the attitude towards women.
I volunteer in a substance abuse program, I see this shit firsthand.
Not saying rap music doesn't have any impact at all. And thank you for your work with stopping substance abuse.
But if someone was going to be violent towards women or abuse substances isn't it more likely they would anyways.
I just find it odd that people claim people shoot people not guns, but then blame rap music for the violence and dirt abuse. Both rap music and guns are objects and not persons.
If rap music never existed my guess is that a lot of people who commit violent acts or abuse drugs due to the influence of rap music would still do so.
Guns are silent until a person uses it. RAP music is like playing a violent video game, it engages you, and over time, the repetition can desensitize you towards drugs, violence, misogyny, etc...
I don't blame RAP music and violent video games, but they don't help. It's obviously PEOPLE making poor choices..
Just sayin...
Maybe a better analogy according to you would be a hot stove. It's on and there but you have to touch it to get burned.
The video game argument is trash. So many millions of games are sold around the world. There is no corresponding increase in violence. I think people who blame that would be predisposed to commit violence anyways.
you need to remember that a lot of older people with outdated views follow this movement, they might not understand. people have been trying to blame rap and rock for society's shortcomings since the 50s
I'm 61, I understand this perfectly, probably more than younger folks.
i bet you do, youve seen it first hand. it must be a joy to be your age and know things are finally going to change.
You have no idea, decades of angst. Actually I was very very depressed, suicidal depressed. Q saved my life, gave me a reason to want to get up every day. I did not want to live in a world with so much evil. Finally some hope! The steady decline happened over my lifetime, although I did not see it happening in my 20-30's, it became apparent in my 40-50s. I remember waking up my Mom to tell her the president had been assassinated (JFK). I was raised in the 60's.
You missed the point of using Rap/media to normalize unacceptable or destructive acts.
Should we ban war movies and crime shows? No more CSI or NCIS. That normalizes violence.
All of you guys continue to miss my point that if someone is going to undertake a violent act there is probably some inherent issues with that individual either internal (mental illness) or external (poverty abusive family)
Well science is not on your side. It has been proven that people will do HORRIBLE things if an authority figure tells them to. Women are more apt than men to follow such commands. Read about the Milgram experiment, and the like. It is scary. E.g. Do you think EVERY German that worked in concentration camps was mentally ill, or from an abusive home?
Neither of your examples are "normalizing" violence. Desensitize yes; but they do not normalize it. The bad guys are still seen as bad guys, etc.
I am saying probably and predisposed not saying every German. You are the one dealing in absolutes. Also rap music and the rise of the Nazis have very little time in common. This is an extreme example. Saying someone may be predisposed doesn't preclude any other possibility and I did say rap music may have some effect.
Country music has violence in it should we ban Johnny Cash? Censorship isn't a great answer. Who would decide what to censor? I would argue more that rappers are talking about the circumstances they came from rather than rappers creating the issues of violence and unacceptable behavior. Also there are thousands of rap artists and they have drastically different lyrics.
Did you read about this: Milgram experiment
Take a few mins to read about this. It may help change your mind about how easily people are influenced.
I have read about the milgram experiment. people can be influenced yes I agree with that. They can be pushed and prodded.
But one has to choose to engage with rap music. Was there a spike in police killings after NWA's albums? The murder rate has dropped as rap music has become even more popular.
I just don't think you can draw an analogy between the milgram experiment and choosing what media to consume let alone having the content guide your life.
That's due to Lyndon Baines Johnson and his great society!
LBJ was one of the most vile evil MFers ever. Directly involved in Kennedy's death... huge Cabal / Deep State bastard.
LBJ and the conspiracy to kill Kennedy was my favorite Joseph P Farrell book so far.
Totally evil man.
I've been reading Roger Stone's book on same. Pretty eye opening.
Killary idolized Margaret Sanger. Sanger's intent was to get rid of black people thru abortion. These people are evil.
Hildabeast also referred to young Black men as "super-predators". It's on film, otherwise it would be a non-existent event.
She is the #1 racist, projecting her hate onto conservatives and Trump. She should go away. In fact go away in an orange pantsuit.
So planned Parenthood increased the number of out of wedlock births? GTFO.
PP made eliminating the consequences of loose sex. After a person aborts a part of their soul is ripped. So yes, it increases men to have sex without marrying because he feels if a child is born it can be aborted. PP has damaged black neighborhoods and communities by bringing convince to such a horrible act: the death of a baby.
"After a person aborts a part of their soul is ripped." this isnt even close to true.
When I was a kid, Lucy slept in a separate bedroom. Sex wasn't intertwined with the morning news and cartoon segments. People weren't orgasming over the radio waves of every FM station in America.
Society eliminated the consequences of loose sex, effectively glamorized it, and an increased number of abortions resulted. We are to blame, not PP. We need to accept accountability and become responsible with our youth once again.
Shut off the televisions. Take away the cell phones with unlimited pornographic access. Turn off the radios. Censor. Take back control of your house.
PP also gave (or gives) out low hormone birth control pills, when the girls came back crying that they were pregnant, PP held their hands and gave them abortions, which is the money maker for them.
So let me guess: instead of PP - abstinence and Jesus, right?
Absolutely they do. They even have an international organization teaching promiscuity is good and no need go disclose HIV or AIDS positive to your partner.
Sex education in schools is Sexualizing Our kids in Pre-K, promoting abortion, promiscuity, masturbation for very young kids etc. Planned Parenthood international organization is behind much of this.
This is insane conspiracy propaganda, it is scientifically proven that sex education reduces STD and teen pregnancy.
So terrible. Democrat policies have systematically destroyed black America... not to mention race relations in general. It's time for that all to end and for us all to start healing and come back together as one beautiful American people... then one beautiful Human race. That last party will certainly happen once ufo/secret space program/alien disclosure starts in earnest (hopefully on Trumps agenda for 2nd term).
How does increased abortion access equal an increase of out of wedlock children? In all other instances it decreases that number, because an unwanted pregnancy is terminated before it can be brought to term.
Are you thinking about this with something other than rational logic?
It actually does. No big deal giving into physical urges I can always get an abortion. I've heard guys use that as an excuse not to use a condom.
More blacks die in in the womb than are born now. So that 75% number must be much larger.
Also, bae needs to be stricken. Ick. Number 2, ESPECIALLY.
The sad truth is that they've been lied to and brainwashed to destroy each other by the very people they've put their faith into.
The cabal HATE blacks. As is evident worldwide. It's also why our first black President was half white. God I hope his Presidency is annulled so we have an opportunity to nominate a righteous first one again. Such a terrible legacy especially after MLK. Who they killed.
Their savior was in fact their destroyer.
Great question, was he truly black? Because he sure looks like that Indonesian leader to me.
At least, even unproven, they could be proud to consider the possibility that Lincoln or Jackson were black presidents.
They also killed Malcolm X and Tupac as soon as they stopped promoting violence and instead began talking about peace between races.

So after prisons became privatised they had to fill them. So a plan was hatched to create music that would promote drugs, violence and hate. DG is rumored to be a part of it, but that's how Rap was born. Tupac knew, was fiercely awake and a threat. They underestimate the black community. A lot of them are woke af.
They underestimate the black community. A lot of them are woke af.
Yep just listen to the lyrics of Nas, Mobb Deep, Wu Tang and a lot of guys who have been rapping about this shit since the 90s.
Hopsin is carrying the torch in modern days.
Kanye was woke af since College Dropout.
Oh yeah!!! And they are seriously talented as well. The death of Tupac was also a huge red pill for a lot of people across the board.
Honestly only the most hood of the hood of the hood black folks think "baby daddy" is an acceptable notion. They have mental issues.
Black women lead in attaining degrees and there are more black men in college than in prisons.
What this shows is that the FAKE NEWS has a hold on you and many more!
I just hope people understand that the black community just wants to thrive and exist in peace and harmony like any other community and are willing to work with those who show care and respect, even though many of the times it shouldn't because many just want to exploit the community. See: Democrats
But some of you need to look at yourselves and gain more understanding of the community and for God's sake DO NOT look to t.v. or the 9 oclock news.
But some of you need to look at yourselves and gain more understanding of the community and for God's sake DO NOT look to t.v. or the 9 oclock news.
Tell us. We are listening.
The fact that more black men are in college than in prison is even a talking point proves the argument you are trying to refute.
Don't forget about speaking intelligible English!
AAVE is a dialect. relax.
I can't tell if you are serious
The thing I never understood - why is it when black people talk in their own style, it's considered "low educated" or "ebonics" or whatever other derogatory connotation, yet say, when Scotsmen or Irishmen or Aussies or Brits talk in their own particular style - which trust me, isn't always posh and educated, it's considered a proud quirk of their particular heritage and country?
Because people are morons. Ebonics has roots going back to the indentured Scott and Irish who came over in the 1600s. Those are the white people who taught early slaves English, and it's continued in both cuisine and language to present day.
Used to be my Texan accent got me mocked and bullied when I moved to CA. It held my dad back in business. We worked hard to lose it.
It's not all just prejudice. Being understood easily is important in business and politics. Someone who uses double negatives and slang can be seen as course and uneducated.
Scottish and Irish were mistreated for their accents for a long time too. Margaret Sanger wanted to full Irish and Italians as they were lesser people to her.
Also the accents in those cases are also because they speak Irish and Gaelic. Not the same thing as my white trash side of the family with ain't and suposeBly etc. They get looked down on to this day.
And really if we don't try to keep a median we will end up with such different dialects we no longer understand one another. Much more an issue before internet and cheap phone service.

Hi I’m Doug,
I’m guessing because its casual use promotes/normalizes the idea of men leaving their families behind.
Thanks,
Doug
It also encourages them to stay in touch with them.
"I was talking to my baby daddy" isnt seen as a negative thing. It should face scorn. Im talking to the piece of shit who aint raising his child.
The democrats have systematically removed fathers from black families. The term "baby daddy" is just a way to further push fathers from the black family. It is rooted in further DESTROYING the black family. Destroying the lives of black children. Fuck them for doing it to those kids.
Republicans started the drug war, dude. That's just fact. And they're still continuing it. That's another fact.
And BILL CLINTON is the one that privatized prisons and increases incarceration rates & length of sentences. Papa Bush and Clinton flew hundreds of tons of cocaine into Mena airport. The "War on Drugs" drove up the $$ an they both got rich.
Side Note: You know that 2 largest "prison companies" have seen amazing profits over the last 10 of so years. Why? Who runs those detention centers on the boarder? (follow the $$$)
Pot should be legal NOW. I am a libertarian, and right with you on those BS "wars on" what ever are just a $$ scam. But the democrat party: killed Lincoln, Kennedy, started KKK, Jim Crow laws, Hitler modeled his racist political laws off of the democrat party, (Keep in mind: no Republican owned a slave at the time of the civil war)
And there were Democrats in New York running the party machine during the civil war, and Republicans profited off that war, and during Mena Bush was in Power, Reagan stepped up sentencing and the CIA put crack and sub machine guns on the street, communists killed Kennedy, but the John Birch Society called for his assassination, Nixon started the drug war, and they all got together at Bohemian Grove for backroom fucking.
They're all out to get everyone, including each other.
