I think the article is more nuanced than the tweet and TC's titleIt's not nuanced at all If you aren't black and are putting out gifs/memes of black people within a manner of projecting offensive stereotypes then it's bad But the fact is the article is just an advertised for some douche's book so I don't really care to argue more --- Meow Meow I have dyslexia so please don't make fun of my writing. ...

He says it in the worst way and types it out in a way that even made me question it but in between the lines there is a genuine discussion that can be had. But hopefully they make one about AAVE too because it always feels like subtle racism when suburban kids start saying it all the time and then you get people mocking it and talking about how people don't know how to talk these days or something >_> --- yes ...

About as offensive as using GIFs and memes of white people looking super nerdy or redneck-y. They just say this stupid shit because it gets a billion views and comments.
