Top 10 imaginary Black people of all time. (according to white people)
A thread:
10. Some of white people’s best friends - Every white person claims that one of their best friends is black. I’ve always wondered why I’ve NEVER heard a Black person say this. Statistically, every Black person would have a white BFF, right?
Then I figured it out
They are all taking about the same Black friend.
And that’s how Clarence Thomas got on the Supreme Court
9. The negro Marxist
Mary McLeod Bethune, MLK, Malcolm X, Obama & Kaepernick are just a few of the ppl labeled as Commie collaborators.
Maybe, instead of being influenced by the Communist Manifesto& studying Karl Marx, they were radicalized by something else:
History
8. Angry Black Women
Enslaved Black women were subjected to the same inhumanity as their male counterparts PLUS more sexual violence. Their children were stolen & sold. They were excluded from democracy, receive worse medical care and paid less even though they’re MORE educated
Why would anyone be mad about that?
7. Careless Blacks
A lot of stuff that happens to Black people is because we don’t care about shit. For instance, Black kids have never had access to equal education. We defied anti-literacy laws, fought Jim Crow, got spat on & funded our own schools. But the reason we fail is
We don’t care about education.
Same for Black on Black crime.
6. MLK
Martin Luther King Jr is a real person but there’s a fictional MLK who wasn’t that radical and only said something about the content of character and he didn’t see color.
You’ve never heard of him but white people seem to know EXACTLY what “he would’ve wanted”
5. Black Republicans
Every year we hear about a mass Black exodus to the GOP that never happens. Also, every Black person from the past who did anything was a Republican and every racist white person was a Democrat. ESPECIALLY the KKK.
Also, Jesus was a Republican
4. Reverse racists
Its funny how ppl who know how much a “dash of salt” is love to tell you about how they grew up in a Black neighborhood and was discriminated against. Considering how this common micro-level racism is, isn’t it funny how it never happens on the macro level?
Where are all the Black -on-white massacres? Or the mass lynchings? After slavery, SC was majority Black, and guess what the freedmen did to the whites?
Nothing
But you’re the REAL racist
3. Cowards.
Apparently, there are a lot of Black people who agree with white people but are “afraid to speak out” bc they will be ostracized by the Black community. They never attach a name to these people but, of course, white people don’t snitch. I just have 1 question:
Who has ever been ostracized from the Black community?
There’s someone on Twitter right now who would buy tickets to an R Kelly concert if he was opening for Bill Cosby
And they’re wearing Yeezys
Something something “you should read Thomas Sowells. He went to Harvard.”
2. Dangerous negroes
These are the imaginary Black people who justify white people’s inhumanity toward us. The police gotta be brutal bc we have superhuman strength (white ppl kill more cops). They justified lynching bc it prevented Black men from going on raping sprees
Crack dealers were dangerous. Coke dealers just “party.” BLM was anti-cop but the Proud Boys actually commit more anti-police violence. We riot & loot but they “protested” at the Capitol & “celebrate” by burning cars after their team wins the World Series of Hackeysack
1. Dumb niggas
This is the world champion of white people’s imagination
Hip hop turns dumb niggas into thugs but country music didnt make Timmy a mass shooter. Crime isn’t caused by poverty or education disparities, dumb niggas just won’t talk about Black on Black crime
Dumb niggas vote Democrat because they’re too stupid to realize that white people know what’s better for Black people than 80% of Black people
If dumb niggas would just listen to white people instead of Marxist thug reverse racists, we’d solve all of our problems

Now that the final chapter in theGrio's 4-part series on SC's war against equal education is out, we can connect the dots to show why history is not a collection of things that happened...
There was a shoplifting ring in my hometown who was known for dropping huge sums of money on designer clothes.
Everyone in town knew who they were, but they NEVER got caught.
Some high end stores would even let them shop freely, KNOWING they were thieves
Why?
A thread
See, the stores all hoped the thieves were there to spend, & not to steal. They essentially wanted to make money off the thieves. It might seem that the workers were in cahoots with the thieves, but here’s the thing:
A lot of people who work in high-end retail make commission
They make money when they sell merchandise but they don’t lose money when merchandise is stolen.
Essentially, they have an incentive to make money off thieves but no incentive to stop thieves from stealing.
Thieves know “the people in the store” are not the same as “the store”
Many WHITE churches split over slavery & segregation. Some of the pro-slavery/segregation churches had other names originally & changes names TO “First __”
In fact, slavery or whether or not they would welcome Black congregants caused MORE church splits than theological issues
It’s even MORE complicated.
If you read the history of many older Black churches, you’ll see the phrase: “formerly named “Second___”
That’s because Black “Second” Black churches changed names after the Civil War to avoid the wrath of racial terrorists
MOST towns are segregated historically segregated by race. But the boundaries aren’t arbitrary. In many places, actual physical barriers that were CONSTRUCTED to segregate places by race.
In some racial lines formed around already existing obstructions.
For instance, in the 1800s, towns sprang up around railroad stops. Most trains were noisy steam-powered engines that used coal. As the towns grew, it was a privilege to live downwind or in an area where buildings absorbed some of the sound & funneled the spot away from your home.
9. Then there was the fact that, because he was cool with the Black Power leaders & the nonviolent resistance advocates, his apartment was basically the spot where civil rights leaders settled their beefs.
