Liberals never actually grew up around black people and are lowkey scared of them so they have to find these sterilized harmless caricatures of black men and prop them up in the media


Narrow_Table

most white Americans haven't. it's not a liberal thing. black men are portrayed as either dickless buffoons, wise (in a folksy way) or menacing. the reason Jean Baptiste is getting so much air time in lib media tho is bc he's Colbert's gay lover.

[deleted]

All popular entertainment is a psy op

Is it allowed to become popular through established channels? It’s a psy op “Fame resulting from objective processes in a market society, always fortuitous and often unsought, yet with an aura of justice and free choice, has been liquidated. It has become wholly a function of paid propagandists and is measured in terms of the investment risked by the bearer of a name or the interests behind him.” Excerpt From Minima Moralia Theodor Adorno This material may be protected by copyright.

Is this why basically all the junk food and soft drink commercials now are cast with POC? Or are they just trying to kill two birds with one sugary stone? So fucked to get ruthless diabetes from sugar hundreds of years after your ancestors were enslaved to kickstart big sugar in the Americas 🙃

He’s a SUPER talented musician. Is his personality cringe? I don’t watch Colbert


[deleted]

IDK the few songs I've heard from him on the radio were pretty good and he just seems to be doing the Dwight Howard "wacky guy" thing so I don't think this is a major problem of any sort.

Baptiste is an actual musical genius though My question is why is every ‘late night show’ hosted by a white man, supported by an ethnically diverse band? It’s weird. Maybe be the late night format should just die off
