The real Ruckus from the boondocks is literal a satirical character who’s supposed to represent self hating black ppl who vote would be Republican…yk that…right? Lmao

It’s no longer statistically significant

They actually do. We see that when given the same opportunity, taken out of poverty, and get rid of over policing crime goes down. Crime, mostly violent crime, is more common in cities that are found in red states….aka the poorer states…but you should know that yea?

but my question is why does it matter either way

U going “nuh uh” doesn’t make ur argument right bro

There is no “culture element” that’s just white supremacist anti-black talking points my guy

7

when you account for things like neighborhood disadvantage rather than individual income (Black Americans live in worse neighborhoods than White Americans at the same income level) then it is statistically no longer significant, do you even know what statistical significance is?

What do the actual statistics say then bud? Cause they’re saying when taken out of poverty and given the same opportunities crime decreases 🫩 yk…cause crime is a socioeconomic issue.

I don’t and you’re right that it’s still statistically significant but that’s when you account for income-only rather than neighborhood-wide factors

Even if I do so what?💀 why does it matter

7

that’s not how that works, there is more than a sufficient sample size for that population to draw conclusions from it

“PWI institutions are too afraid to be racist and call out black people for their culture” or some BS I’m guessing

what is the culture bro

8

I’m literally black dumbass 🫩

I’m very open about being a black man who lives in Southern Louisiana. How would I not understand my own culture ✌🏾😭

5

yes girl i know im asking for their exact explanation because it usually unravels naturally when you ask them to explain themselves

Anonymous themind._.ofhueyfreeman25 25w

but also the notion that you being “removed” from the culture allegedly causing crime just from being in affluent majority white spaces kinda indicates that yeah it’s more socioeconomic than anything bc if blackness is the causal factor changing environments shouldn’t matter

Even tho I go to a PWI I’m still in touch with my culture. I don’t change the way I talk, I dress the way I want, I still eat soul food, I listen to our music. Even if I don’t like a genre of music I’ll still listen to it if it’s made by a black artist, especially if it’s a genre that u don’t see us in much. I didn’t rlly listen to rock music until I found The Paradox. A band of young black dreadheads. I bump their music every now again just to support. I literally started an organization-

On campus for black men so that we can network and meet other black ppl. My friend groups are majority black and the PWI I go to has an extremely high BIPOC population 😭

Anonymous OP 25w

like do you start doing random things just because you heard it in a song

If ur talking about County Jail no I’ve never been locked up. And to say that “if you’ve never been to county jail ur not black” shows ur stupidity 🫩 me being born black means I’m already all the way into black culture

Idk if you’ve been to a rap concert recently but the venues are all white high school kids lol, i don’t think that’s a black culture thing
