Hi kingg
niceeee

hello
as a nonbinary person ive never really liked "folx" because folks is already perfectly inclusive and folx really just seems performative
Me too!
same here
for real, people are just being too pretentious and extra.
I totally agree, there is nothing in the word "folks" that is gendered, so the fact that they put an "x" is unnecessary.
I didn’t even know it was a think. Why do people keep shoving “x”s in shit and saying it’s gender neutral
“We centered black voices...... and then edited them to fit a narrative”
PLEASEEE AHHAHS U DID NOT MISS

toooo accurate

as a transmasc, "folx" just seems like a performative way to get credit for "acknowledging" us and being inclusive; idk why it's considered to be specifically lgbtq+ when "folks" is inclusive of everyone anyways. people do very careless, superficial things in lazy attempts to win support from communities.
It's similar to how I feel about womxn, like people using it, even if their intention is actually to be inclusive, it makes me feel like because I'm trans I'm not actually part of the term women, only womxn is including me.
@@erikasakura7721 yeah, "womxn" i think was created for a different purpose (and khadija mbowe made a great post about the history of that) but a lot of people today just use it to mean "women and people who were afab" which is kind of transphobic. like trans women are included in the term "women."
@@mushroomsalttea this, I'm a trans man and if someone called me a womxn I would go off on them. I am not a woman, nor am I a womxn. I'm a fuckin man. And nonbinary people aren't womxn either. They are nonbinary. Just. Say. AFAB. It's so easy.
But “folx” also sounds like “folks” because of the X, which is what some ppl use it for, some im gonna keep using it. In slang manner only, though. Thank you for the info
the x in Folx is in group signalling. It does nothing but other than showing off that you put the x there in the first place.
Even the way they asked the question: "What are white people *superior* at.", not "what are white people *better* at." immediately calls up the association with white supremacists.
I think thats the point

Who would've known D'Angelo was a black woman this whole time
One thing that was extremely manipulative was the specific word “superior” that Cut decided to use in their question. That word would make almost anyone immediately defensive and/or on edge. It’s almost as if they were trying to provoke a negative reaction in order to utilize it in the narrative they’re building
With a question like "what are white people superior at?" they're directing the interviewees to white supremacy, just by how they framed it.
On top of that, the editing is just insulting
the absolute irony of giving 100 black people “a voice” just to talk about white people 😭
EXACTLY
NO LITERALLY
literallyyyy
if they really wanna give any bipoc people a voice stop making up talk about white people and let us talk about our damn selves and our history
Damn that’s a fucking good point
😂
it’s hilarious that people use “folx” as a gender neutral version of “folks” when “folks” is already gender neutral
That was my favorite part of the video lmao
same. even being non binary myself that always confused me.
ua-cam.com/video/Cmp1R7frXWw/v-deo.html

yeah, it's always bugged me. i understand its intention but it's so unecessary that it just comes off as performative.
Everyone knows the letter k is short of “kan only be binary”
I will never forgive videos like this for teaching my young, impressionable teenage mind that every minority group (including the ones that I'm a part of) were out for my blood. The way they're being demonized in such a subtle yet effective way is just... vile.
Truest thing. It makes me so angry. I feel like I'm not actually listening to diverse voices on the internet and worried I'm just being manipulated
Part of the problem is that discussing “white people” *as an institution* - as part of a discussion on how race (and racism) operates socially and systematically privileges certain people - is different from discussing “white people” as individuals. A discussion of how whiteness operates as a social system is not actually supposed to operate as a condemnation of every individual white person, but it takes clear context to clarify what is meant by “white people.” The way that Cut framed it, it’s incredibly unclear which one they mean. Some of the Black people responding probably meant “white people” (the institution) rather than “white people” (the individuals), but Cut explicitly played into the confusion to inflame white viewers. Insidious as fuck.
Yes! This^^^!!! The mixture of using these two contexts makes it’s so confusing and causes all the problems highlighted
THANK YOU. This really hits the nail on the head!
Perfectly explained.
big smart words i agree with
Thank you, thank you, thank you for saying this.

@@maya_yaser I think latinix (I think this is how it’s spelled) is good because there is no all inclusive Latino/Latina but I do agree that it should not be shoved into words like woman because if someone identifies as a woman she/they are a woman.
The term “folks” is sometimes associated with street gangs so maybe that’s why they chose to write it that way.

This is a really helpful phrase imo
Let's be honest. D'Angelo will always be the most adult person in the room.
I'm gonna say it right now:
No one is superior.
more like no race or group of people are superior by default. it all comes back to the individual and what you do, your effort/hard work and how you treat others.

Ditto.
i just thought it was a shorthand like "tht" is "that" for example. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i hope thats hows its beimg used.

Them: What exactly are white people superior at?
Me: Asking stupid questions *stares to interviewer without blinking for more than a minute*
IDK WHY BUT I IMAGINED IT LIKE “asking stupid questions 👁👄👁”
I watched this a few years ago and it made me feel bad for being white. Thank you D'Angelo this is giving me clarity about how the video is set up to make me feel ashamed. I think this video creates divisiveness, and its manipulating black people and white people and making us mad at each other instead of questioning the system that perpetuates privledge. Its good to remember this, because I feel like theres a narrative about race that perpetuates pain instead of healing. There is healing to be done and in a different way.
folx actually isn't more inclusive lol it's just performative. "folks" is already a gender neutral term, so the x for gender neutrality is just clueless, performative, ignorant, and tbh kind of condescending. and i do say this as a nonbinary person
Thank you! There's no reason to change a work that is already made to encompass everyone
See and I saw that and went "Wait isn't folks already neutral" sure enough it is, it was a performance to look better.
^^^ facts, there is no faster way to get my genderfluid eyes rolling. sorry to report that i have also seen y'xll before. Y'XLL. they replaced the A in y'all with an X lmao
but...trans/enby people use it... including me..how are you performing for yourself?? you don't gotta like it, but that don't make it performative. some black people don't like being called nigga, others say they're reclaiming it, does that mean "nigga" is performative? obviously not
Has the same feel as the twitch womxn (I think they used that term?) thing, to include trans n non binary woman, like theres a good word for that,,,, its _women_
Cut really said ”let’s make black people sound racist to gather the audience that needs an outlet and an excuse to be racist back”
Exactly
I couldn’t have said it any better. 😩👏🏽
buzzfeed are so shit lol
Omg exactly. This video is soooo obnoxious
Me here being white being like yes I agree completely with all your comments but my first thought when I saw the title of their video was yeaaaah this is a bad idea

“No way they’ll use this to paint all black people in a negative light, right?” *Tucker Carlson enters the chat* Cut knows EXACTLY what they’re doing with these videos and they don’t care at all. They care way more about outrage farming clicks than they do about Black lives.
Thank you for putting the finger on what had been bugging me with this channel for so long! I used to watch it before they got all involved in race "discussions" and noticed a sharp shift in my attitudes towards their content. I went from enjoying it to feeling super uncomfortable and I thought it was me because if I'm uncomfortable it would mean I have something to blame myself for, that they are right and I'm just privileged but no! My whole issue with this channel is that they pretend to start conversations on important and deep topics but in fact give no space whatsoever for these opinions to thrive, and just use buzz-words and controversial statements as facts to make themselves feel better about what they do. In no way did they respect any person present on this shoot, they just sampled one argument they made and mashed it among tens of others, creating this mess of valid points taken individually, but so far removed from the narrative they create that it seems disingenuous and angers their audience. But then this anger doesn't get directed at the media, who managed to remove themself from their content by giving a fake platform to individuals and communities who suffer from the consequences of such anger. It's vile and I'm glad I finally understand it
Why would “folx” be considered gender neutral when “folks” is already gender neutral?
I don't really think folx is a necessary word to have, bc I do think that folks means the same things, but I can explain the arguments I've seen. In general, it seems people use folx because they're signalling that they're extra accepting and they're very intentionally including all people in their message. It just sort of puts emphases on inclusion, but in my opinion I think folks is inclusive enough.
Ikr
Because people are stupid
putting an x into words also was coined by terfs, as in womxn and stuff like that
Because people see gender inclusivity as an aesthetic now so will add x's to random things. For example when people say y'xll (which I️ will say I️ haven't seen nearly as much as folx but I️ have seen it used presumably ironically)
a huge problem with their editing is that they cut off people before they could actually explain their opinions. guess that’s why they’re called cut.
Boom
Blah Blah Blah
@Rachel Forshee locs babe not dreads
Yeah I agree. I wouldn't be surprised if these people had a lot more to say and it was a lot more nuanced than just "white people bad" and likely was more about institutionalized racism rather than just individuals, but they simplified and cut out a lot of stuff to make it more punchy.

Why do I feel like everyone said “nothing” at the beginning and then kept getting pushed to say more and more intense stuff
Yeah, and many of them are having the same mannerisms and 'attitude' with their answer like they were being worked up to be angry.
That’s exactly what they did because the part at the end where they all said nothing? That was most certainly how everyone answered the initial question (who the fuck wouldn’t lmao) and then they were prompted to give the other answers with follow up questions

As an average white person, this video comes across and is cut intentionally to read as "black people hate you" and the division continues to grow. Thank you D'Angelo for calling this out for what it is. So manipulative.
It's good to know that the average white person understands that's what buzzfeed are trying to do. Buzzfeed are so problematic. They suck, for real.
Edit: I mean Cut, but who can tell the difference at this point?
As another average white person, it does feel exactly like that and i hate it.
My thing is: even if they hate white people, I think it's kind of fair.
As an average black person, to me this video comes across as pointing out the perspective with which black people perceive white people in America. It’s not that we “hate” white people, there are many who are just normal and nice people. I think the most notable part of the video is when they shift to speaking about white supremacy, which is kind of inseparable from the idea of “whiteness.” White people are just people, but they become “white people” when considered in context with black people, and we really only make the distinction when are discussing our country’s long history of racial discrimination since that’s the only reason to really bring it up.
My thoughts exactly. They are not trying to empower black voices. They are trying to further the divide. Performative activism at its best.......the sad thing is is a lot of the responses were educated but they mixed it in with stupid shit like ‘being insecure’ or ‘being liars’.....this is not how we dismantle racism.
I love the fact that D'Angelo didnt even try to hide the fact that he disliked the video lol

@@red-vr7bt the previous person said it better but it's basically implying that white people are already superior, and that the people need to somehow find an explanation for that. It's intentionally trying to provoke a reaction out of people because the word "superior" makes it sound like they're asking what white supremacists are good at, rather than just white people as a whole. Then this gets taken out of context and can be easily used as fuel against black or white people.
Asking a stupid question like "how are white people superior" is automatically going to bring white supremacists to mind. It's possible some of the people in the video meant what they said exactly the way it came across. But not giving people a chance to clarify that by asking (or just editing that part out of the video) is pretty gross.
The vast majority of people definitely had white supremacy in mind. Ask a question that upholds white supremacy and get valid responses like this.

@Rose Anne Boushard First. The source you just gave is just for the survey's raw data, which is meant to be fed to data analysis software. It is unreadable. Can you refer me to the actual source that claims the survey's data proves what you're saying?
Second. This is just one questionnaire based survey. It is bold to assume any single study in isolation, no matter how well conducted, can prove anything to be true. Especially when it's just a questionnaire which is the weakest kind of social study. Especially when it's a survey studying election sentiments NOT studying "which race is the most racist" (lol) Correct me if I'm wrong, but it really SEEMS like that's what you're trying to say it has proven.
Third. Even if what you're saying is true in a general sense (for which I have serious doubts), you have no idea if it's true for the individual people in that video. Which is the point of why this video is gross. The irony is that you're the one making a judgement on the individuals in the video based on their race right now.
My point is simply that it's a good idea to be charitable to people when they say reactionary things. Which is a grace I'm trying to afford you as well right now haha

Ok Ive just randomly started a binge of your videos- and you are the first person I’ve ever seen go on the “folx” rant I’ve been going on for years. I cannot tell you the amount of times I’ve cringed at the fact that 95% of straight/cis people say “lgbtq folxs” or “queer folx” like that’s the only acceptable term. When did “people” stop applying???
Also folks is already gender neutral??
Legit v happy for D’Angelo that his return saw him transform into the Main Character 17:50
This is so weird, being black isn’t a personality trait and being white isn’t either.
I remember when some people were getting their DNA results seeing all the places their ancestors have come from and most of them were saying: "I'm 76% Nigerian, 13% Colombian and 11% white". Just like you wouldn't say "I'm black" when someone would ask your nationality, races aren't cultures and nationalities. There are so many black, white and other cultures that do not fall under the race category simply because within each race there are a lot of categories dependant on the countries and/or areas within the continent the race originated from
I didn't even pay attention to what those people have been saying until someone pointed it out in the comments of those videos. Every race can be racist and has people in them that are. That is the unfortunate truth that I wish would change one day
Ikr when is the internet going to accept that
Wat heeft Emma je aangedaan?
I don’t think that anyone is saying that either race is a personality trait, it’s an identity. Please allow people to incorporate their identity into their personality.
@@tyralassiter8323 I interpreted the comment as like how people will assign random behaviours to race like you'd assign certain behaviours to personality traits. It's just stereotyping (which I'm not saying is *always* wrong, people do tend to behave differently depending on how they were raised, but usually its just used to mock people)
I'm not black but i am Asian, since Asian people are also in danger rn (especially in America) if i was asked this i'd probably just say "they aren't superior at anything, they just have the ability to get away with more"
We asked 100 Asian people what white people are superior at-
I hope you and your family stay safe
I would say "they're better at suppressing people"
im also asian- be careful out there!

related to that - i have this suspicion (and i could fully be wrong but i just cannot take anything about this video in good faith) that the choice to include really diverse body types and presentations was almost calculated instead of a sincere effort to be inclusive? like...idfk man something about editing together these cRrRaAaAAzzYyy answers out of the mouths of non-conventionally-beautiful poc mouths feels like baiting those stupid "triggered fat sjw" responses. its something that could have been such a good thing but feels like...idk you know when a movie casts an "ugly" girl to be the butt of a joke? like they HAD to know how assholes would treat these people when they stitched together this tapestry of dumbassery.
@@Saibellus Most likely
yeah but you can justify that these people said insanely racist things cus they edited in a certain way
Cant believe D’Angelo fucked up his recommendations to bring us this content 😭 hope its better now king
i personally hate when “white” and “racist” are used interchangeably
Not to mention the question “what are white people superior at?” As if that’s not an inherently triggering question in the first place. They knew they could get some of these answers because of the way they PHRASED the question.
Yes, the question was a nasty one to ask.. I agree.
I really don’t think it was THAT deep 😅 just an unsettling could’ve been worded better question. No one was trynna get away with anything
@@lemoncholy3264 171 people disagree with you. The people asking the questions were probably white, as was most of their staff. Imagine being a black person, being asked by a white person “what are white people superior at?” It can definitely elicit a negative response because it’s such an insane question.
N C well, firstly Im black. And was taking a servey and have been asked that, just worded better and there were other races there too. Secondly ofc more people are gonna disagree with me, the people are biased. Based on a majority of the comments, creator, and title the people are here to collectively discuss how racist cut is 😅 so not sure what you were getting at with that
N C none of that regards me saying it’s not as deep as cut trying to get away with anything
They’re probably named CUT because they’re good at CUTTING parts out.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Snip snip ✂️✂️✂️
I think based on the premise of this video... they’re good at cutting the WRONG parts out, because what they left , in the video, seem to be the most problematic parts 😂
they should cut the cringe parts, and the outcome is no video.
unfunny
my thought exactly
I think the one lady was talking about the "Mitochondrial Eve" ancestress we all share.
Burning in the sun, that's extremely true. Especially in the UK where the sun rarely comes out and people don't think of sunscreen cause they're desperate to not be pale and tan in the small space of summer we get. They just end up looking like lobsters. So. Fucking. Burnt.
"Get rid of the slave catchers, expand the police force"........ it's actually disturbing how accurate that statement is. I feel like those words alone are the most important thing that came out of that video.
as soon as i heard this i thought 'theyre cowards for not letting her continue'
@@MystiqMiu 👀 👀 so freaking true
but unfortunately they made it as a joke, in the way he said it, “important information in a quirky video”
Prisoners are laborers who are barely paid anything. Many also can't vote (states are slowly changing this rule). How interesting that the prisons increased population so much after the civil war.
@@keladry12 And since our prison system is for profit, it pushes both prisons and other people to get more people arrested to make more money

@@emergencymachete unfortunately 😭 i’m not black but i’m a feminist, and they’ve been painfully damaging to that too :( they care about random stuff like painting with period blood instead of systematic misogyny or misogyny towards disabled women or woc. They give the incels something to grab onto with videos similar to these to excuse their hatred of women and feminism, and unfortunately it goes for this video too. It gives them an excuse to not care about the real systematic issues towards race and it’s really just so damaging 💔
@@show._bug EXACTLY
@@weetdoog literally!! it’s so harmful it hurts!! obviously incels and racists are in the VERY wrong but videos like these make it worse instead of helping. It gives them excuses to pick apart femenism or systematic racism with strawman and out of context arguments. It gives them a chance to “recruit” young boys who are very influenced by these types of things by saying “they’re trying to make you feel bad about yourself, they’re trying to say you’re bad if you’re a white man!!” it gives them an incentive to hate on these movement and justify it to themselves because they hate being criticized.
@@emergencymachete YES YES YE
When I saw this on a stream I didnt really think too much of it, like it felt like the kind of thing racists would be mad at but thats about where I stopped. Thanks for giving it so much more context and helping me understand how its problematic to lump int fun jokey shit with like legit problems in a way that deligitimizes the latter. Great video as always!
I just recently started watching cut, I knew something felt off
These types of videos are trivialising the real issues faced by black people.
These types of videos just show how fucked up america is lmao.
Pretty much.
@@rinlila6974 So true.

Part of centering Black voices is protecting Black voices, and instead they used Black voices to get clicks and create anger. I'm glad you went into what their team looks like because that was my question the whole video.
All I could think is how much hate the participants would have got in the comments. Cutting up the most provocative comments knowing it'll get engagement.
This should be top comment. I'm so glad D'Angelo brought this point up bcuz I'm so tired of the race baiting, "let's create a race war in the comments about how racist black ppl are", youtube videos. And of course, "certain" ppl fall for it hook line and sinker.
@@indiarose92 Exactly. Most of their videos involve setting ppl up and making them look bad so they can get hated on in the comments.
I don’t care what their team looks like, they just generalized an entire race most likely do to negative experiences and social co conditioning
@@nala6846 that's so not true they have literally hundreds of videos that allow people to share their own voices and truths. They literally had a viral video of a black father explaining to his sons how to interact with the police and the video ended with a heartfelt message of the dad expressing the trauma black people go through just to make it home. Yes, this video was bad but they literally have almost 1.5k videos of course some of them will be misses.
at 20:53 when he scrolls down the last woman of the previous video is shown, in the same clothes, in the thumbnail. Meaning, they have probably asked them more than what they think of white superiority, but used different answers from different questions. The power of ✨editing✨
What you gotta remember is: These people are being paid some money, maybe a free lunch as well, so they’re gonna say something, explain it, then go on with their day.
one of the most stupid things about this is that "folx" isnt any more gender inclusive than folks. FOLKS LITTERALY MEANS PEOPLE
It also annoyed me that they went out of their way to write folx and then didn't even put up their pronouns to avoid misgendering if* nonbinary people are actually in the video
@@Sid_enuh exactly
I was like ‘wait I thought it was gender-neutral already?’ I have no idea why they spelled it like that
@@g996 mmhmm like for example the car company volkswagen means folks - wagon so that translates to peoples-car
i didn’t even realize it was supposed to be gender neutral i just thought it was racist
This really reminds me of a quote, "Red and Black ants will not fight each other when they are in a jar and everything is stable. However, if the jar is shaken, the ants will begin to fight. So today we should always ask, 'who shook the jar?'
ur mom lol
That's such a good quote
Probably the wealthy and politicians, if we the masses are too busy fighting each other they can continue to pass policies that hurt everyone not born with a silver spoon in their mouth.
@@lucillemiddour9760 legit tho. Race has been used as an ideology to stop the poor ppl from gathering together(w/out their color being a factor) and taking down the real oppressor; the filthy rich.
@@lucillemiddour9760 Bingo
I love this video, its perfectly analyzing media's objective to make light of real issues and take things out of context to further their ideas. Simultaneously stirring up and upsetting people while also dismissing the validity of what people are saying in this video by giving zero context.
i find it hilarious that they try so hard to be this “all inclusive” with the “folx” when literally no one does that- folks itself is gender neutral.
The use of “folx” instead of folks is a performative way of “being so woke you fall back asleep”
people who use latinx: zzz...
@@omgheather1 Question: every single latino I know hates the term latinx. So if a word that people use about a group of people is hated by that very group of people...is it technically a slur?
@@sbel6626 slurs are offensive...
the concept of latinx/womxn/folx/etcx is annoying and stupid but overall harmless
they were made up in the first place to be more 'inclusive'
they're not inherently racist like the n-word or sexist like femoid (update me if they are)
soooo i think no on making it an official slur BUT it's a good tactic to make people stop calling you it lol
@@omgheather1 Thanks for the answer. Completely agree with you
@@sbel6626 wait why do Latin people (Idk what word to use anymore) hate the word Latinx? It was just created so people didn’t have to use the gendered terms Latino or Latina, as far as I know... am I missing something? Do latin people just dislike nonbinary people?
D’Angelo obsessing over that guy’s hair was so wholesome
It was really cute
Mig
And how he jumps when the guy says that white people aren’t superior at anything. I jumped too, it was a good moment.
I love your username btw 🤍

It might be fair to say 'white people in America' for all of this video, as someone who lives in Croatia where like 99% of people are white because historically we never had slaves (this goes for all slav cultures Russian, Serbian, Bosnian. ..), heraing all this about 'white people' when there's so many white cultures except for Americans or British, makes me slightly iritated
I wouldn’t say it’s fair to claim that all white Americans fit these descriptions. Yes racism is a huge problem in America, but that doesn’t mean all white Americans are racists
I'm not claiming everyone is racist, neither is the video, I do not believe that is true.
I’m not great at history, but like didn’t Russia have serfs which are basically slaves? (I’m not saying you’re wrong, just curious because history classes in America rarely focus on non-American history)
@@beccag2758 i don't know dude, mom told me that the name 'slav' literally comes from 'slave' because of that reason, Wikipedia says otherwise and I'm not sure what are "serfs". It's been a long time since I had a history lession and i wasn't a big fan of them at the time, also, i literally remember it going like this - non people, Mesopotamia, Greeks, Romans and some Egypt stuff, blank space, Magellan and america, WW1, WW2 oh yeah, and myths about how two brothers (one of whom was named Croat) and five sisters started our country Croatia, so, uhm, i might be off on that one.
@@beccag2758 serf (at least in the UK) where people who lived on the land of nobles. They farmed the land and had to give most over to the nobles. They didn't get paid or have to pay rent.

They’re describing racism because they were asked a racist question. Pretty simple. Thank you D’Angleo as usual for providing amazing content. 🙌
EDIT: in case you’re confused this is a pro BLM comment. The racist question was the one asked by The Cut, they’re the racists here, not the people answering the questions.
This statement fully summed up my feelings about the topic.
Yesyesyes
D'Angelo is already pure royalty and supreme genius incarnate, but him straight up calling out that being white and being a white supremacist ARE NOT the same thing, and calling out that there IS such a thing as being racist against white people, just endeared him even more to me forever. Thank god this man is using his platform and realism and sincerity to call out areas where there needs to be a little nuance in the discourse. So many people think they're doing good for social justice by calling all white people racist and it just sabotages progressivism so badly, we need to break away from those ideologies if we're going to make any real change
That video was intentionally meant to work white people into a feeding frenzy against black friends. If you think black people venting about white people is racist, then you have no idea what black people in our country have had to deal with. That's all.
@@heidibangbang I think you misunderstood what I was saying. D’Angelo even said “wow, this sounds racist” and I was saying that, yeah, if it sounds that way it’s because they were asked a racist ass question. I’m on your side.
I appreciate your level-headedness, good sir. This is something that our society is sorely lacking.
Also, as a white person who was raised on Cajun food, I can say that some of us do season our food. Haha
It just dawned on me that I'm (probably) closer in age to D'Angelo's parents than him...

@@peachypanda57 Fr, that video was horrible
And so the cycle continues

This gave me flashbacks to that god awful incel video
Not only did they load the questions but they chopped the answers. How does anyone watch this channel?
Cut is definitely a name for it.
Not seasoning their food? Spanish, Italians, and the French season their food like champs. Olive oil, salt, on toasted bread simple yet divine. Bland food is more of a British trait than a white one.
some americans tend to have this problem where they view all races as a monolith rather than a group of people with different diverse cultures and ethnicities.
They're trying to turn actual discussions of injustice and race devision that exist in our world into something fun,snappy, and trendy.
making it a trend
oppression shouldn't be "fun," "snappy," OR "trendy"
Right.😭
@@sobskunk.2477 no shit
Not to be rude, but why are people describing BuzzFeed's business model like as if they haven't been doing this for over 10 years?
Something else shady I remember them doing - for anyone else who saw that $1000 to 1 video with the high school kids, Cut lost me when Nina from that video said they intentionally cut Jordyn's (fish girl) crying scene in to look like she was being a sore loser, when she was actually crying because she shared something personal. Imagine doing that to a kid for views. Like she certainly didn't need help looking like a sore loser, but they just made it worse for her.
edit: just wanted to slide the source in here, in case anyone was curious where I heard that - ua-cam.com/video/B_PaJJl04Ww/v-deo.html
she mentions it at around 13:27, if the timestamped link isn't working
I really felt that the hate that Fish Girl was getting was kind of unjustified. Yes we need to call out hypocritical behaviour but the hate she was getting was out of proportion for what she did as a 14 year old girl.
Holllyyy crap that's evil. WTF
Yeah it's like treating them as circus animals and we all point and laugh, they are all so young and went about the task in a really well thought out mature manner, if you look at the adults version of that video its shocking how well the kids did!! I don't like that people were just basically bullying the children in the comments it's so mean😔😞
No idea if she is but a lot of the behavior people were making fun of seemed really typical neurodivergent to me which just makes it even worse. Whether she is or not it’s still just like, come on how are we not better than this? Grown ass adults were really just making fun of a 14 yr old for acting “weird” without anyone even thinking twice abt it
Besides that girl was so much better than the other people who are in those 1000-1 videos. At least she admitted that she was acting out of turn at the end of the other video. The strangers episode was such an awful episode and blows “fish girl” out of the water in regards to being annoying
I know black people aren’t hateful at all. They’re rightfully protective and this video feeds into the narrative that we’ve been fed that black self protection = aggression WHEN IT IS NOT!!!
29:32 i agree with this 100000% and personally i believe that having these difficult conversations are the only real way to change peoples perspectives. However, (at least where i live) people were getting ATTACKED online if they didn’t post on their stories every single day or actively prove on social media that they’re not racist. It was so backhanded for the whole movement and triggered sm performative activism.
