In this era young white men are often afforded a space to fail up by older white men that control most of the wealth in America. They see former versions of themselves. And hand out advantage to keep that image for society. The con of our moment is to mask it w/ Black celebrity. 
In addition nepotism has run wild within wealth calcification. And it drives OUR eras winners & losers. There is no group that unknowingly lives further under that boot than #ados Black men. Lives set up for failure from the day they left the womb. Yet expected to provide as men.
The craziness is 99% of you don’t even know this is going on… And it is that pressure & con that scratches at the back of your brain. The feeling of helplessness while being given the faux belief you have all the tools. — Say again how #ADOS didn’t trigger reparations??? 🤫
They showcase them like #decadentveil show pieces creating a faux belief of diversity in opportunity. And you the lay Black man are not burdened with a legacy of enslavement & Jim Crow. Your failure is in not being industrious & becoming Meek Mill or Hov.

Whatever becoming Meek Mill & Jay-Z means beyond being a #decadentveil???
Each iteration of failure from slavery to Jim Crow to mass incarceration & even now payless work like a Uber (when you account for cost & risk) written for you to be the place to hold the failure of American capitalism. An era built on a matrix of faux choices so you accept.
