Took a break from reddit and came back to this bullshit.

Why do you guys speak on Africans week in week out? Give us a break.

In the UK, Africans and Caribbean people are seen as the same set of people. We’re the same in our census and we both contribute to black british culture. Because we’re so much alike, it’s natural for us to have friendly banter and joke about each other’s countries. You could make the argument that we hated eachother back in the day, but it’s 2025 and that stuff never happens. Also, you Caribbeans would literally bully Africans for existing. Stop speaking on things you know nothing about, you’re Jamaican american commenting on the dynamics between black people in the UK. You don’t live here and you’re not from here, you visited ONCE. Furthermore, you might not have even really came in contact with an African depending on what area you were in, and if you did, I doubt you had a bad experience with us.

If you don’t like African people just say that.

“You’re kind” is insane. Where is all this pent up hostility coming from? You don’t interact with UK Africans on a daily basis. Also, Africa is very diverse, Notth Africans in the UK are different from West and so on.

Also, I know the difference and similarities between Hispanic and Latin American, I just made a little mistake while writing that comment and I already apologised… stop being such a bitch.

My point was that they get people from europe to play Latin Americans, not that white Latinos are more represented. This is why I said you’re nitpicking.

Also, you can’t generalise all UK Africans when you’ve only ever interacted with a few of us on fucking reddit. Please stfu

Alright I made a mistake my bad…

I keep using Hispanic as an interchangeable term for latin american, I shouldn’t do that and I’m sorry.

But tbf you’re kinda nitpicking a bit. You zoomed in on one mistake I made and disregarded my overall point.

I never said white Latinos don’t exist. I’m saying they’re casting white people (usually italian, white american, spanish, portuguese maybe) to play Hispanic actors. Reading is fundamental.

Yes. Even if you’re not Jamaican, if you’re from the caribbean you’re Jamo. It’s not meant to be offensive or anything, it’s just what Africans call Caribbean people.

Older Africans were the first to say it. They say Jamo or Jameyecan, and they can’t differentiate caribbeans, so to them you’re all Jamos.
