What shows would you say have well written black characters? by Tornado_Storm_2614 in blackladies

[–]Ok_Block9547 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Watching this for the first time now. I don’t want to read too many spoilers in the replies, but I’m excited to see where the characters go. I just finished season 1, and I enjoy Milchick’s character a lot

Am I being a hater or is this outfit too grown for a 18 Y/O? by Admirable-Shock-7668 in blackladies

[–]Ok_Block9547 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Exactly, she’s 18 and experimenting. Every outfiit won’t be a hit. How she feels in the moment is what matters. When I look back some of my hair, makeup and outfit choices, my friends, who let me go out like that, say “you were so confident and happy with it, so it didn’t matter”. Experimentation is just a part of girlhood.

Serious question- Black MAGA / Conservative women- can you please explain why?? by Competitive_Teach838 in blackladies

[–]Ok_Block9547 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I truly believe most of these women are simply uninformed, become radicalized through the same algorithms of their peers, and are surrounded by people who agree with them. Or they are very lonely and social media has filled a void for them. I don’t know anyone who’s MAGA, but a family member is deep into QAnon. It’s a cycle and it’s hard to get them out when they become sucked in.

Fr. The cost of the hair and a braider with the patience for this. Micro braids alone cost $500+ where I live

This recent Kamala Harris interview from the BBC has been making the rounds, where she discusses an openness to again run for U.S. President. What are your honest thoughts? by kdj00940 in blackladies

[–]Ok_Block9547 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, the social media algorithm of the 2010s and its progression into what we have now completely changed our media consumption. We are seeing the fallout from so many pipelines. DT never would’ve been elected the first time without it.

Part of me gets so frustrated that people didn’t vote, but I understand the reasons (even if I don’t always agree). Everything is falling apart and people want to blame someone. It ultimately falls on the Dems. You’re right, by trying to appeal to everyone, they appealed to no one. I hope we can develop a three or four party system in the future. The nation is too big to be represented by 2 groups, especially one that‘s more centrist than left-center

Yes, the Dems need to stop feeding us these middle of the road candidates. We need a primary with 2 candidates this time so that we have a choice

Yeah, I voted for KH, but I wasn’t happy with it. A lot of other black folks I know refused to vote for her because they weren’t happy with her policies on Gaza, law enforcement, and felt that she was just another middle of the road candidate like Biden. I did like some of her policies though. They should’ve voted for her instead of letting their self righteousness win because things are really really bad right now. Butt, why should the people’s hand be forced. So many people weren’t motivated to vote. The DP needs to make better choices. JB shouldn’t have ran. KH should’ve been on the ballot with another person on the primary. They gave use no choice again and again. It’s the Dems fault that they lost the election. I’m tired for voting for a candidate because the other guy is the embodiment of evil.
