No country (or trophies) for "good black men"
As is the standard operating procedure in the black community, after a public incident wherein a black woman is hurt or killed by a black man, the resounding phrase from the ashy-n-aimless dick gallery and its fluffers is, “She should of chose better”. For the record, the correct use of those words is “have chosen”. If one, an irrelevant black male in these instances, is going to pontificate about how the woman should have picked a better man instead of how that man should BE better, then correct the admonishing retort should be: “She should have chosen better.” Past participles and all that, but I digress.
At any rate, when black men say, “choose better”, what they’re really saying is women should choose someone less terrible. She should choose someone who has 3 kids by 2 different women, instead of one who has 4 by 3. She should choose someone with a conviction of reckless driving, not DWI on his record, a charge of lewd acts with a minor, not rape. The lesser of the many evils. Black women are expected to dig through a pile of trash to find the least broken piece that is the easiest to mend with some super glue, prayer, collard greens and p*ssy. You know? The brotha who just needs a chance. A “good black man”…
If a black woman wants a NEW car, she is expected to go to the junkyard, salvage yard, or scrap heap to find a new-to-her car. After spending hours in the hot sun walking the rows of “options”, her choices are: the 2000 Ford Explorer with a busted axle and 189k miles or the 2006 Kia Sephia with a blown head gasket and 200k miles. Guess what? She’s not going to be able to get where she needs to go, on a regular basis, with either of those cars, at least not without an inordinate amount of repair, which will cost her more than it’s worth. However, in the end, after several breakdowns, flat tires, duct tape, and several high-interest payday loans to cover repairs, she’ll have her a “good” car. “See? I’s drivin’ now”.
The good black man is dead. As a matter of fact, he never existed.
That’s just a lie black women have been fed by the black community in order to keep black women energized with false hope and accessible to the leeches who want to use them and leave them depleted, unfit, and unqualified for someone else after they have tapped out their resources. The goal is to leave a black woman as damaged beyond repair as the men who do the damage. Misery loves company and it’s a parasite, so it needs a host.
When a black man says he’s a “good black man”, he’s saying that he does the basics, what he’s supposed to do, like protect, divide, defend, and build. When he says he’s a “good black man”, he’s saying that he should be given credit for doing the bare minimum, because in relation to his block-hugging peers, he’s going above and beyond. He’s exhibiting the appropriate behavior of well-adjusted, fully-functioning, adult men, yet he thinks he’s moving mountains. He expects praise because “at least he’s…” or “he could be doing…” or “at least he isn’t…” or “he comes home at night”. He wants to be recognized for not being abusive, unfaithful, predatory, neglectful, or violent. A trophy for finding his way to and from work ever day he’s scheduled to be there. The “good black man” is a loaded, seemingly innocuous label. However, it is dangerous, because it is a distinction that has been unilaterally assigned to and usually by the person toting the “good black man” badge. It’s subjective and arbitrary, and precludes the label wearer from inspection, review, or oversight. “I told you I’m a good man. What more do you need?” This lack of accountability is the equivalent of a company/entity/organization, etc. finding that it has not engaged in any wrongdoing after an internal investigation or in-house audit. “Good black men” also come spring-loaded, with anger, resentment, and entitlement. They’re “good black men” after all, and they should be have all the rights and authority granted thereto. You know? The same way your bachelor’s degree grants you all the privileges that earning one affords, yet there’s no proof that you actually know what you’re doing and there’s no evidence of what you’ve done.
Be very cautious of men who call themselves a “good black man”. I emphasize “good black man” because I don’t know of another race or group of men that has to declare itself because its actions have not created a good reputation to precede it. There’s a reputation to precede black men, but it’s not an overall or overwhelmingly positive one, which is the reason for the “good” adjective. Be very suspect of black men who label themselves good. They are coming to you with hopes that your expectations are low and requirements are few and they’ll be really angry when your social, monetary, physical, and intellectual value exceeds their budget. Instead of them leaping over and clearing hurdles, they’ll want and expect you to do the limbo to see how low you can go…
