The fuck? They were definitely doing it out loud. They used pictures of lynchings for postcards and Birth of a Nation was played on the white house lawn

When you're black you never truly alone. There's always some white person there who can't mind their business
This is a legendary amount of dick riding
I meant the entire post history of the troll. I followed their page early on and anyone complaining like this wouldn't go to Europe in the first place. Its false outrage about topics anyone who's left the country would never complain about being in the Netherlands
When its all made up? Yes. Yes it is
I guarantee most of them are fine with socialist policy as long as you call it something else
You're right. They were also a bunch of genocidal hypocrites who, "believed all men were created equal" yet enslaved multiple continents while raping their way across it
This was a troll account. It was a Dutch guy pretending to be MAGA to point out how arrogant Europeans are. He succeed thoroughly
It's a race thing to distract white ppl from the class thing

This art isn't FOR white ppl. The idea that artwork has to implicitly consider the experiences and opinions of white ppl is in itself problematic. As I mentioned above if you have no frame of reference to a culture its better to just say nothing before trying to critisize that what you dont understand. All it does is expose your own ignorance. I know little about LGBTQ+ culture but i never feel the need to criticize their imagary and ultimately shut up and let them speak their peace because i know very little.
While I appreciate the apology I still hold some resent towards you because you tried to justify your ignorance and its not my responsibility to educate you on why you are wrong. As a human being you should want to learn more about cultures because its not just black, white, asian or latino, etc. culture. Its all human culture. There's nothing more tiring and frustrating than having to justify your culture to someone whos gone out of their way to ignore it considering black and brown culture are a major pillars of american society. Your anecdotal experiences don't define my culture that has been around since the start of the US.
Ultimately, be a better person.
Edit - also as someone with a trans flag in your profile, you should know better
This is can appreciate.
Seems a few of the culture references didn't translate due to your background. The imagery is just a representation of urban culture especially urban Texas. Arrogance/confidence in the face of authority which is the most prominent aspect of hip hop culture. Black and brown ppl are already looked down upon so what better way to respond than confidence to the point of arrogance? I know there's nothing wrong with me, and if you don't agree you can go fuck yourself. Smirking in the face of facism is something I considered incredibly brave. I know I'm better than a facist. I'll be smug as hell to them because as far as im concerned the only good facist is a dead one.
Grills, graffiti, and the script used don't automatically equate gang culture. The script itself is Cholo based. A part of Chicano subculture that doesn't mean you're automatically a gang member. There are tons of professional influencial artists who created and use this script with no gang affiliation. Equating it immediately with gang culture is like me thinking every white person who listens to punk or metal is a nazi. Or if they're into Nordic runes they're apart of the Aryan Brotherhood.
Not to be insulting but a lot of this reads like a suburb kid whose never explored black or brown culture. I could see Fox News trying to use this a propaganda that "Gang culture is running rampant inside these Anti-ICE protests so ICE is needed more than ever!" But that just shows their overall ignorance of anything not white, light, and suburbanite.
It do appreciate the positive notes on just the artistic aspects but overall this message isn't for you because you have no cultural frame of reference and that's ok. But personally I feel you should look into why this imagery ONLY has negative connotations with you.
Edit - If you're disgusted by imagery that is outside of your culture that's a bit problematic and honestly its the same kind of attitude that the ppl that support ICE share with you
To be fair the English have A LOT more experience doing that than Musk
