Whites are behind BET yo destroy blacks and implement a consumer culture. It is all part of the agenda Quoting: acegotflows You know, I did a casual and honest observation of my own people that was largely prompted by the shit I read on GLP. I can assure you guys, what you hate about ignorant you know whats, we loathe and fucking detest about ignorant you know whats. One example of the ignorance I encountered: I was in the supermarket yesterday, looking for a decent brand of green tea to try, and fellow woman with dark skin said quite loudly to her man, "Look at that high yellow bitch. I guess normal tea ain't good enough for that hoe, she gotta drink some old other shit." It took everything in my power not to burst out laughing. Because I enjoy decent quality tea, not some powdered tea in a chemically treated bag, I had to be that barrage of names. This is the kind of shit you come to expect from the you know whats as a NORMAL black person. Ignorance. You see, the kind of people who watch BET are the "crab in a barrel" type of individuals. They hate to see another person trying to better themselves or want better for themselves. That channel is their entertainment, and I see it as a necessary evil, because if you take BET away, those poor idiots will probably pick up a book...and *gasp* maybe even learn to write or do something other than gossiping about some dick they had from the club last night or related bullshit. Please for the love of all that is holy, white folks, stop lumping ALL of us in the same box. Not everyone with dark skin has the same culture. And I'm not accusing anyone in particular, it's just a PSA...because I feel you on some of your complaints about 'them'. WE hate them too... |

I'm black, I grew up in inner city Miami, and I've been around the music and entertainment biz. After 1998, BET turned to shit. It became so blatant in what they wanted to do to black "culture" that I pulled the plug on watching it. Some blacks are just ignorant , but that is all people of all cultures. I was lucky, I had a family who encouraged me to read the library of books in my house rather than go outside and get into stupid stuff.

My own husband won't give the show a chance because he calls it "racist" due to the gratuitous use of the N word. It's realism, not racism. I wish I could make everyone watch the more profound episodes of the Boondocks. People get so caught up on what they think they are hearing, they stop listening. It's a great show. I know a lot of people that won't give it a chance either. My mom did, and that amazed me...

MTV and other channels would NOT show black videos. Part of the reason BET was created was to be able to put black artist on tv because other people would not. The reason the channel had to be made is a lot more racist than the fucking channel (which is not racist because they have always ALSO had white artist on it too). |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 14966212 United States 04/24/2012 11:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's kinda like the Muslims instilling in their children the hatred for Israelites. Blacks in America instill in theirs a hatred for whites due to their inability to rise on their own. Someone always has to be the reason. Massive insecurity in that ethnicity. As far as the BET... absolutely. I will refer to the bible where it states that during the times of the end, good will be evil and evil, good. Everything is upside down in the world today. What is right is wrong & vice versa. This type of reverse discrimination/psychology is indicative of how those who seek to take advantage of this negative reinforcement are being drawn deeper and deeper into the clutches of Satan.
