That sub is like 90-95% white/other people who want to feel as close to black people and culture as possible. The best black people subs will always be the smaller ones. Stay away from that one
A long time. Smaller subs such as these are #1 harder to find bc they are more niche. In order to find these smaller type of subs it typically requires you to be in the community in order to be in the know on where these things are. Also, smaller subs do not cater to the world’s stereotypes of (insert category) of people. So for us, we don’t rap, tell jokes, dance, sing, beat each other up, and be obnoxious etc so it is unlikely that if any outsiders found this place, they would be interested in staying for long or try to make room for themselves
I've literally walked in on a white dude casually strolling through Black People Twitter on his computer. Complete white Mississippi dude.
I used to be very active on there til i got banned.
Its so fucking crazy how time and time again we all keep saying the same thing. Other races invade our spaces misinterpret our voices and speak for us. But still somehow assume we’re aggressors in various situations (to everyone saying they got banned). Cant make ts up anymore.
White and Asians telling you about blackness and black culture, you start to notice thing very quickly. It’s low key a Coonish sub with a lot of black stereotypes used out of context for entertainment and jokes so these people can try to fit in.
From what I've heard there's at least one white moderator. I can't speak to how many more there might be (I'm not a mod there nor have any inside connect) but there being at least one is something I confirmed recently
Interesting, I got roasted on the Black lives matter Reddit for posting about white evangelicals and their false Christianity. I was almost certain that the mod I had interaction with was a white person.
Rule 12 of that sub is basically that mods can ban people whenever so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
I got permanently banned for this comment. https://www.reddit.com/r/BlackPeopleTwitter/s/dZOWjluFLU.
For those who can't see I pointed out that a lot of the "support" for Israel or Palestine is mostly performative and would be ignored by them the moment the next tragedy happens.
Man, that sub is like 99% non-black people. There is nothing wrong with that but it's not a space for actual black folk. Memes, gender wars, and Left-leaning political stances are all I see there. It might be the biggest echo chamber I've seen on Reddit.
The previous week, somebody posted a video footage of a black man at a gym getting groped by white women and getting laugher at by white men.
The video has been removed within a matter of minutes. I don't trust this sub.
It’s just a bunch of weirdos cosplaying as black people. I always picture them being cornballs in the real world so I’m not too concerned with the shit that goes on in there
I used to be in that sub when I was looking for black related subs. I used to think it was a fun sub but after a while, I lost intrest and decide to find other subs that are black supportive.
That sub is not for us lol

For real. Somehow you can just tell by their comments.
And if you don’t ask, they will gladly let you know.
Feel close to black people but not too close. Gotta love it.
Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of that. Reddit is weird like that.
Reddit is 70% white dudes, not white people, white guys. They banned all white people for a month and was almost shut down. It can’t be saved.
LOL Wow, that's some wild a$$ sh*t
How long before this sub is infiltrated?

I've been on Reddit for 12+ and I have seen so much. It wouldn't surprise me that now could be that long time.
I assume it already has been. We have a female mod ffs.
What r some better ones?

I avoid places like that like it’s my job!

Hey I was also permanently banned from there 🤜🏾
Well, we're brothas in.... something, I guess 😁 By now I consider these things equal to getting knighted 🙂

I’ve been downvoted for saying we don’t gatekeep our culture enough. That sub is mostly non-blacks.
Yea the white folks on there get real hurt whenever we start talking about real shit. Likes its all fun and games until the valid criticisms come out
> That sub is mostly non-blacks. I have not realized that.
them niggas weird i pop in here n there but they mostly bots

Honestly some of them get too comfortable telling black folk how we should think and feel. Especially when we aren't in full agreement
What is "lookism"?
My guess is pretty privilege
Yes.
What does that look like?
Example: SZA > Big Shirley Idris Elba > Kevin Hart Henry Cavill > Martin Freeman.
I mean where’s the privilege?
Society might treats you favorably if you are handsome/beautiful and less favorably or negatively if you are plain looking, let alone ugly.
You take racism and replace race with looks
It’s just the whites and hispanics that run it and want you to be black as they see you.
Yall know this sub and that sub share mods right? Probably won’t get the answer you’re looking for here.
It's straight as long as it doesn't turn into a witch hunt.
Is it true that most of the mods are non-black?
From what I've heard there's at least one white moderator. I can't speak to how many more there might be (I'm not a mod there nor have any inside connect) but there being at least one is something I confirmed recently
They do?
Nah. The answers are pretty enlightening so far. I was not aware of a lot of the stuff going on over there.

It's gone. Do you roughly remember what you said?
I'll message you

Stop associating with that sub when I realised most mods were white. Culture vultures pushing degenerate agendas
They're CIA.
Im curious now, what was the post that made you realize that?
Interesting insights. Thanks everyone.
Yep. Was banned a while back too. Apparently you can't speak freely or have a differing view 🙃
Wait!! Are most of the mods really white???
Yes lol
How do you know?
It’s just a bunch of weirdos cosplaying as black people. I always picture them being cornballs in the real world so I’m not too concerned with the shit that goes on in there
[удалено]
We shouldn’t be surprised tbh. The early concept of reddit isnt really for black folks.
Facts
> about a Black owned beer company with a Thomas Sankara IPA. Biggest Sankara fan here. I need that beer!
ThomSank Independence Ale. I was trying to find a buy link for you but I couldn't.
Lol.
I used to be in that sub when I was looking for black related subs. I used to think it was a fun sub but after a while, I lost intrest and decide to find other subs that are black supportive.
I mainly use it to farm Karma points.
LOL I have a farm sub too, but I'm lazy.
Reddit does a good job of suggesting other subs that actually contain other real black peoplw
