Speaking of change, at a glance, I noticed there's a seemingly significant black nerd culture. I don't know how long it's been around (I didn't know any black nerds growing up), or how prominent it is, but I've only taken notice in the last 5 years, give or take.
I doubt there's much crossover between the black nerd community and the 52%. Just spitballing here, but maybe a good way to fight gangs and black culture is to supplant it early on by promoting nerd culture. Surely not ideal, but certainly the lesser of two evils. We'd all rather have them locked in their basement than locked in prison, right?
Gibs should include PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and Crunchyroll subscriptions. I'm only half joking, honestly. What do you think?
The black nerd culture has always been there, but is now being co-opted by the “right kind” of black people. It is the same as the SJW bullshit we have seen already. The problem is that black people were and still are successful in the fighting game community, esports, etc., and the “right kind” still have to clear that skill hurdle, which inoculates against “diversity hires” appearing on the scene. So long as they aren’t hobbled by their own homes turning on them, black people pick apart a competitive scene and eventually start to build a foothold in it.
No. Nerd culture are the primordial ooze of the consoomer meme. We don't need anymore consoomers.
The consoomer meme is actually the antithesis of nerd culture, because it promotes outsiders coming in, forming a “community”, and driving the hobby into the ground for short term profits at the expense of the hobby.
I agree completely. Bringing back christian moral values would solve a lot of these problems. When you have no moral compass, outcome will never be good.
Way I see it is that this is a problem with culture. The inner city black communities have a destructive culture that glorifies drugs, gangster life, shootings, a life in crime and not taking responsibilities. And at the same time mock, or sometimes worse, denigrate positive traits like 'study hard', 'graduate from school', 'have a job', 'work hard', 'provide for your family' and mockingly referring to these traits as 'being white'.
It is a higly destructive culture and they need to erase and destroy this culture completely and replace it with a better culture that steers people towards become better members of society.
(Look I said it, not all cultures are equal, some non-white or non-faith-based cultures are terribly bad and should be destroyed.)
Not Christian values, American values. Christian values lead to the zealots coming back into power. American values temper any and all cultural influences in the fires of liberty and forces the more negative aspects of a culture to the sidelines. The inner city black culture was using rap to call out the issues in the neighborhoods.
Remember the song “Cop Killer”? It was in response the the Rodney King incident and how people felt at the time, but the media ran a smear job then tried to turn around later and blame the “racist Republicans“ in later years when literally everyone tried to ruin Ice-T’s career over it. Rap culture then had too much of a corporate hand involved, which is where you get this current inner city culture.
This is where the above reply posts I made are relevant, neither the Democrat Party nor the “diversity hire is the only way I get in” portion of the black population wants black people to be like white people and split into their own subgroups based on hobbies and likes. Black nerd culture needs to be eaten by consoomer culture, rap needs to no longer call out the ”wrong“ targets, only Republicans, and so on. This keeps them monolithic and dependable in voting.
