it seems now a days that if you're black and don't walk about complaining about what "the world" has done to you or not feeling the least bit oppressed (different than the everyday simpleton shit that everybody goes through for various reasons); that you are a shrinking minority.
So taking a break from programming, I take a look at AppleInsider and see this:
Ok.

"The campaign kicked off with a short two-minute ad spot which was published to YouTube on Thursday. There is also a corresponding Apple Music playlist featuring artists that are "speaking their truth to power."
There is no "Their truth". There are facts and there are things called "not facts". You may have an experience that is different than someone else's experience but it doesn't constitute a truth. A female runner may speak of her experience beating a large number of men during a race but it doesn't change the fact that as a whole, men are faster than women at running. She can "speak her truth" all day, every day and it doesn't change the facts. This is why I despise the "your truth" stuff. It isn't of much value outside of your experience. But this is a minor pick.
"You love Black culture, but do you love me?"
This film unpacks the question.
Those who touched this piece have seen the world actively love their art or their athletic achievements, while also seeing the world continually oppress the Black community at large. Beats, the creatives, and the cast joined together with the unified goal of inspiring Black youth by highlighting the everyday beauty and rich diversity of their culture.
"The world continually oppress the Black community at large"
So Apple, via beats is all in on worldwide victimhood of black people. And apparently, black people in their suites think THIS IS GOOD SHIT.
Sorry. Language, I know, but still.
What kind of educated, informed on the world black person co-signs: "world continually oppressing the black community"?
It's more of the same black people are perpetual victims with absolutely no agency or responsibility for anything negative that happens to them.
How about this? I don't GAF if you love me.
Why are black people in 2020 still fucking approval seeking?
Sorry. Language.
"Additionally, a number of rising stars, athletes, artists, and activists make an appearance in the film, including Naomi Osaka, Bubba Wallace, Lil Baby, and Janaya Khan."
Anything missing here?
No?
Scientists? Totally missing.
Seriously. If you don't understand that our (as in black people's) continual admiration and pedestal posting of athletes and [other] entertainers as the pinnacles of black achievement are the biggest joke on us and too many of us are too stupid to realize it.
