It's the same breeding control many of these baby daddies and mamas out here who are straight primal mates reproducing from the same bloodline, DNA just for the aesthetic or blood line.

    • @d2h655
      @d2h655 27 days ago +15

      Okay but in 2026, how much of that struggle still exists? Racism and fascism aside, are we so suppressed that we can't come up? When will the victim mentality end?

    • @lovelee_07
      @lovelee_07 27 days ago

      @d2h655yall always screaming ''victim mentality'' like black people worldwide are barred from building ourselves up due to literal centuries of systemic and governmental practices implemented to keep us from doing so 😐 the ongoing theft of resources from african countries by foreign powers, the gradual erasure of quilombo communities due to the brazilian govt failing to grant the people the right to own whats theirs, the deliberately disproportionate rates of poverty between black and white populations and african and western/european nations, black voters being denied the right to vote in state elections, gentrification, redlining, as well as segregation--and even though segregation has been outlawed for decades, the effects of it is still being felt even in the big 2026....as well as other past struggles. its almost like when you keep a group of people suppressed for centuries, itll be hard for said to group to progress even when past struggles(i.e slavery, segregation, destruction of thriving black communities) have long ended. Because when the struggle is systemic, those past struggles still affect the people. Yes, we can and should invest in our own communities since its clear our own governments dont care to, but dont act like its as simple as just that.

      Never trust a man who wouldn’t date a woman of his own ethnicity/race.

  • @MadisonsMotif
    @MadisonsMotif 27 days ago +68

    I’ve noticed over years white people needing to almost put on an act or embody whatever role they’re playing. When they’re done, they can transfer back to who they really are and if you look at many artists like Justin Bieber, Post Malone, and other artist, including Alabama once they’re done with their hip-hop phase, they turn back into regular white people. Not saying regular white people are bad, but it’s like when they do hip-hop they have to embody and act like a completely different culture then when they had their fun, they just switch. Like code switching. But they can get away with it and no one says anything.
    A good example is Beyonce. She wanted to do country and got heavily criticized for that, but Post Malone did hip-hop then switched to country and no one cared.

  • @Pasteldecay

    18:22 this. My mom is black and had kids with a white man and I'm almost positive it's cause she wanted lightskinned babies. Cause my brother and sister are both lightskinned, and im basically my dad's twin. And my mom always lowkey treated me some typa way cause I didn't have the look she was hoping for. She'd always pressure me to go tanning and to wear darker makeup and she'd say stuff like "if I knew I was gonna have a white baby I woulda stopped at 2" and "if she got a little more sun then she'd actually be pretty". And for the longest time i would think "why would you have kids with a white man if you didn't want a pale kid" but now that I'm older, it's become obvious that that was the only reason she was ever with my dad in the first place. She divorced him shortly after having me, still won't tell anyone (including him) why, and she never got with a white man again after that. I'm 24 now and surprisingly, I have a great relationship with both of my parents but I still side eye my mom every now and then lmao

It was harmless you know, but it’s another thing to go and like try to be black Not trying to be like racist or anything, but like if you’re like trying to become like a whole Nother race then that’s a whole different thing. That’s very much cultural appropriation you shouldn’t do that.

By the time you actually reach the required amount, it’s very difficult to actually cash out. I understand wanting to get your $ and I support you in that effort. I wish you would do it ethically. Your word is worth more than this.

      She isn't a little girl. Don't infantilize her that way. She may have been heavily influenced by the people around her, but she is now an adult and can choose not to act that way. She knows other white people don't accept that aesthetic. That became apparent with her private school. She also knows society in general has issues with her due to the multiple controversies. She doesn't care, and keeps acting that way because SHE wants to.

      That doesn't fully explain it, though. My Black and Asian peers were the only ones who didn't make fun of my skin color and red hair, and consequently, they became and still are my closest friends and the people I feel most comfortable around. Black women have been a source of acceptance, joy, inspiration, and strength in my life, and because of that, I never have nor ever will change the way that I naturally speak, because it's disingenuous and disrespectful.
      Feeling truly accepted has never led to feeling the need to change who I am, it's led to the opposite...unlike with Alabama.

      As an asian woman, I feel you. Obviously in a different way though. Not coming for the NORMAL people who have a genuine interest in other cultures or grew up in that environment. Or NORMAL interracial relationships. It’s crazy how when I was a kid people made fun of authentic Asian food sm, made a mockery of the language going “ching chong”, made fun of our eyes, we get asked if we eat pets all the time, I could go on… yet people will get tattoos of oriental art or in a different language, eat our food or gentrify it (even though they’ve made fun of some dishes), now they wanna travel to Korea bc they think they finna land a BTS or K-drama boyfriend. Like ew. And to the people who think fetishizing is a compliment bc you’re “chosen”, it ain’t a compliment. It’s a form of racism. I saw an old interview with racists about black people and omfg… (bc as we know there’s diff types of racism. There’s the blatant ignorant hate, the fetishizing kind, the micro aggressive type, the threatened jealous type, etc.) Well, in this interview the racist person seemed to be more a fetishizer & was saying how he views his relationship to black people as having “a superior pet” WHAT THE FUCKKKKKK????? And that can be applied to all fetishization!! They don’t see us as HUMAN. Just accessories or props. Or in his words “a superior pet”. Fucking GROSS. This why some POC pmo when they in an interracial relationship thinking they won like… what did you win? A racist weirdo or culture vulture who sees you as a pet?🥴 Again this isn’t about normal people or people who celebrate diff cultures lbvs

    There’s a fine line between attraction:

    Vs.
    Fetishized attraction
    Whether it’s with your own race or another there is a thin line.
    A white person can fantasize about having the full white family, which is a fetish.
    Just as a white person can fantasize about having specifically mixed family.
    There should be emphasis on finding the normal attraction level where it doesn’t tokenize someone by their race.

      @mojo3190 12 days ago

      This is a very true statement, considering the fact that genetics can go back 3 to 4 generations my father’s mother was light skin black woman with gray eyes. My father was dark skin with light brown eyes, and I have a little, darker brown than his. I was always mad that I didn’t get my daddy‘s eyes 👀 or my grandmother’s eyes However, my hair was like a 1 really really light light brown, almost having golden streaks to my hair as a child. It was so light I continue to dye it to this day that trait probably comes from my father side of the family. When I was born, I had a full set of natural curly hair. I was a baby who was not bald. I had a full natural and my grandmother’s hair was like that as well with her gray eyes, but I didn’t get her gray eyes, but you can have a child and that child can get four generations back and have those gray eyes.😂

    16:02 NEVER and I mean NEVER trust someone who isn’t open to dating someone of their own race, don’t trust them the same way you shouldn’t trust someone who will only date one specific ethnicity. Having a type or dating many people of the same or closely related races isn’t a bad thing, it becomes a red flag when they openly claim that they would NEVER even consider dating someone of their own race or a different race. There are never any good reasons that someone would have to go out of their way to not date a person for their ethnicity, internalised racism fulled misogyny is a very real thing.
    Besides fetishisation (very common in people who only date one specific race that isn’t their own ie: black man only dates white women, white man only dates latin women, white woman only dates black men ect) internalised racism is a huge aspect of this trend, as well as racist stereotypes.

    As someone who is in the middle of the Elder Millenial generation, being born in 1987, and being a casual Blink-182 fan, Alabama Barker dipping into blackfishing and cultural appropriation is NOT in the least bit surprising to me, as her father Travis Barker, Blink-182's drummer, has been obsessed with hip-hop and black culture for a hot minute! I personally began noticing it in 2003-ish, as that's when he got more public about it, but he was cozying up with popular rappers in the mid 2000s after Blink-182 disbanded, working with Lil' John, Lil' Wayne, doing a brief stint with DJ AM ("TRV$DJAM"), helping found his short-lived hip-hop group Expensive Taste, and doing work with Soul Assassins which was a project created by DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill, and injecting some hip-hop influence into Blink-182 when they reformed with Matt Skiba (of Alkaline Trio), and he even had a bit part on CSI back in the day where he appeared as a famous rapper who spent most of his days partying with beautiful white (and spicy white) women in his mansion. Travis was the one who came up with the idea of the short-lived tour Blink-182.0 did with Lil' Wayne before Wayne quit the tour early on because he kept showing up way late to his sets, completely under the influence and totally out of it, and got booed off the stage because Blink-182 fans came to see *them*, _not_ Lil' Wayne. And that's not a knock on Wayne fans, as iirc, Wayne fans really weren't coming to the shows because they weren't interested the alt-rock/pop-punk music that Blink was known for. And even when they were, Wayne was trying to get into his rockstar bag, attempting to shred on the guitar, but since he doesn't know how to play, it sounded like shit, and Wayne fans were expecting him to rap. (The tour was also marketed super weird, because they were trying to make it seem like it was a Blink-182 and Lil' Wayne tour, like both had equal billing, but Lil' Wayne was more of a glorified opening act.)
    All that to say, this behavior from Albama is nothing new. She got it from her father.

    There’s a lot of blackfishing that goes on for profit or to chase trends (Kardashians), but people like Ariana Grande and Alabama Barker seem to not have a stable identity on top of the clout chasing. Maybe it’s a personality disorder thing. They copy the people around them because they don’t know who they really are. You can’t be authentic if you haven’t found yourself yet. Ariana changed so drastically when she started Wicked because she was now surrounded by Hollywood elite instead of R&B artists and producers. If Alabama did a total 180 in her career like that I wouldn’t be surprised if she also ditched her current image.
    Of course having an identity crisis doesn’t excuse being a culture vulture. Eminem is a good example of a white rapper who respectfully engaged with black music because he connected with the actual experiences of black people. He learned from the black community around him how rap developed as form of raw and honest expression and, as someone from a rough and impoverished background himself, he could appreciate the deeper context beyond “rap is all about looking tough and cool”. Alabama in contrast, while she may genuinely care for her black friends and feel comfortable around them, is completely out of touch with the context behind the black culture she’s so fascinated with. It’s superficial. As far as I know Eminem never tried to put on a fake “blaccent” (as a result his rapping style is pretty unique because he’s not trying to mimic black men) nor does he walk around wearing white boy dreadlocks or something goofy like that. She really needs some therapy to bring her down to earth and hopefully she can stop this nonsense.

    I'm white and from Denmark, so I don't have a propper insight in the American subcultures, I just like the perspectives and depth on this channel.
    Something nk said reminded me very much about the sexism in Denmark before me2. Men were alowed to say disgusting things to me in the subculture I grew up in, and men didn't take me seriously at work even if what I said could actually solve a problem. Then suddenly they figured out my solution "themself" and got celebrated. Apart from the things that were disgusting the main thing I were angry about, were the fact that I weren't being taken seriously for the things I said and were even rediculed at times for my input. The problem weren't that the others were being taken seriously, but the fact that I weren't. Even for the same f..king s..t! I didn't want them to be taken less seriously, I just wanted to be taken seriously on the same level as well. Though I must admit that do to the other stuff I was getting more and more bitter and really wanted punish them at times.
    Is it that feeling people in American black culture feel like in general when white people adopt your culture? Or is it more like a 'they are stealing it from me' feeling?

    Great video, NK! Yes I would agree that she appropriated black culture and aesthetics but still looked like a tanned ww to me. I've realised the term "racially ambigiuous" is overly used in the US to describe a tanned ww with dark hair and eyes! In the UK people would easily recognise these women-the Kar-Jenners, Alabama etc simply as tanned Caucasian women. Just as bi-racial/mixed raced people are referred to as that and not just black.

    Chokers were popular in the 90s. You're cute. You obviously appeal to a young audience but you should give credit to millennials
