Yet they KEEP BITCHING ABOUT IT - even though nothing has ever happened in their privileged ass weak lives that would justify pretending they are somehow oppressed.

The 1964 Civil Rights Act didn't go far enough, bro. It completely forgot about band aids matching skin colors and laws against telling a black woman you like her hair.

And dolls. Without representation of perfectly matched skin tone dolls, society basically broke down.

SJW liberals: Black dolls don't exist. Therefore oppression, force the manufacturers to make Black dolls.

Anyone with a brain: There is an underserved market I can tap and make money in.

These people don't want change they just want to have something to be upset about.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner!

Look at it this way, we already know a lot of this is driven by liberal females (most of them white). It isn't much of a logic jump to say they probably all lothe themeslves. These pet causes give themselves something to fight for, which in turn quiets the voices of self-doubt in their heads and their hearts just a little bit. They all get to be their own personal Harry Potters and Hermione Grangers.

Ignore that if they put their YA fiction down for a minute and picked up a Bible they would find they have all the self-worth they need in Christ. They can find it in their church small groups. They can find it in being genuinely decent people in their home, families, and neighborhoods.

The manufacturers have tried to market black dolls. They don't sell well so they end up being discontinued. The reason? Black children preferred the white dolls.

Which is obviously due to systemic racism or something. There was a study on it done by Drs. Mamie and Kenneth Clark. I remembered watching a 20/20 or 60 minutes segment on it forever ago. After looking into it a bit more just now, there's no way I'd voice any sort of opinion on it publicly.

Naw, they don't need black dolls - they already have their own babbies to neglect.

black dolls don't sell as well. that's beginning, middle, and end of why they're less available

They don't like hair complements. They are seen as underhanded because even black women don't like their own hair. All those wigs and weaves and straighteners.

There was some bitch on TV selling her kid's books for "brown bodies" as she called it. One was called Big Hair Don't Care telling little black girls that they look beautiful the way they were born. Thing is this "author" had long straight rich girl hair that had blond streaks in it. Clearly full of shit.

Not to mention what does that message imply? If someone has to convince you that your natural hair and body are good, then it must mean that the default is to hate them.

Could be a problem on my end but I just see a blank page saying it was a Youtube screenshot.

So this is one of the dumbest complaints - re:hair. I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but what in God's name is wrong with paying someone a compliment? Why is it wrong to take notice of hair that is different than yours and to compliment it?

During a recent doctor's visit in the waiting room, my daughter shared her kindle with some other kids who were waiting, three black kids around her age and a bit younger. They were super curious about her hair, and that's okay. It's natural to be curious about things that are different from what you're used to. People are such weirdos about the silliest stuff.

How dare someone want to touch my hair?? Ahh so much offense.

and laws against telling a black woman you like her hair.

I've seen so many comments/op-eds/videos from black folks saying that whites always want to touch the author's hair. After seeing so many of these complaints, I'm kinda curious. Never cared one way or the other before, but now I feel like my life won't be complete until a black person lets me touch their hair.

Will it cure what ails me? Give me superpowers? I must know!

same thing third-wave feminists say. "we're tired of talking about it!" - as they whine endlessly.

curious to see what happens to feminism now that JK Rowling is a TERF, tbh. I kind of hope it ends up one big slapfight.

White countries are literally the nicest, most hospitable places in the world for black people. Asians openly dislike them, Latinos dislike them, Arabs still use them as slaves, even other black people don't give a fuck about black people based on how much they kill each other. A black man in a white society has more opportunity than anyone in a non-white society. I grew up around black people. Went to school that was at least 1/3 black. They were always the loudest, most disrespectful, violent, and unwilling to learn, treating their education as a joke. I am getting sick of having my race and culture attacked by those who take from us, and give nothing back.

They don't have to take any responsibility this way. Everything is whitey's fault.

It’s the same with with all 18-30 liberals. If their lifestyle and choices aren’t wholly being subsidized by the American taxpayer then it’s fascism. Anything that isn’t free is fascist. That’s how they think. They think that every single service or amenity is a human right.
