Exposing Onision

Anon submission: Found on lolcow but i want to share since onision is trying to weasel out of his last creepy minor joke so here’s another he made that needs to be shared to show his hypocrisy against shane. I mean damn if Shane’s a pedo * spoiler alert he’s not * over some stupid jokes I guess you are too onion boy 🤷🏼‍♀️

*submission has been posted anonymolusly on request of submitter*

Also MORON, saying you dated someone of a certain race and saying you’re friends with someone with a certain race can both be used as that image thing you were taking about. Just because you dated someone doesn’t mean it meant something. Who knows maybe that relationship was online, maybe it meant nothing or they lived far away so you only saw them a few times a year, like friendships. It’s not night and day, it’s the same thing. People could date a person of a certain race just to be like,”I’m not racist I dated a person of this skin color,” same thing with a friend.

He’s just so stupid…..

Well I can’t fall asleep so I’m doing this shit now. I was originally going to watch all 3 videos and talk about them in one post. But this got very long after just watching one of them, so I’m gonna have to make multiple posts. As stated in the first black hair video review; I am a black woman so I’m one of the best people to call out his bullshit bc I have life experience of this shit.

Starting with The Truth About Black Hair. 18 seconds in and he’s saying that people ‘lost their minds’ over his first Black Hair video. No Greg, I saw people calling you out on Twitter and I saw a Youtube reaction video. Nobody ‘lost their mind’ non-black folks were saying that you a WHITE MAN shouldn’t be talking about BLACK WOMEN’S hair. You said racist shit such as, ‘I bet she hasn’t washed her hair in 4 years’ about a girl with gorgeous braids. ‘She looks fun’ because someone decided to wear her hair curly and not style it, etc. You also fetishized us the entire video, the ‘she looks fun’ comment being an example of that. People were, mostly, trying to politely correct you about a topic you are very clearly ignorant about. But I guess that qualifies as ‘losing their minds.’

37 seconds in. No Greg, it is not awful for you to be white. Nobody said that. Also we CANNOT wash our hair DAILY. It damages our hair and it is extremely unreccomended to do so because of that. Washing our hair daily has the same effect as anyone, POC or white, blow drying and/or flat ironing their hair daily. It kills our hair.

43 seconds in. It is not a rumor that we can’t wash our hair daily and it is not a lie. Did you talk to any black men or women before filming this video? Because I can tell you rn they all would’ve told you the same thing which is; We cannot wash our hair daily without damaging it.

46 seconds in. He’s talking about the ‘lie’ that we cannot wash our hair daily and tries to debunk it by saying ‘oh but not black men?’ Black hair is all the same in the sense of washing it, Greg. Here is a screenshot from an article written by a Black man, talking about how to care for men’s Black hair.

Please not that Greg is looking at an article specifically talking about black women’s hair.

59 seconds in. ‘Nobody has said that black women’s hair is unprofessional. At least not in my videos.’ I will give him the videos part of that, but the first part is wrong. Here’s some screenshots of links to articles where black people talk about instances where they were told their natural hair was unprofessional. This has also happened at schools. I have heard stories about kids getting their braids cut off, sent home, or excluded from classwork because of their natural hair. All of which was reported at one point by news stations. I myself got told that I should still be a slave, called a faggot and a nigger the very few times I wore my hair natural to school. Btw, I was trying to spell instances not instincts.

1:13. ‘Black people are terrified of swimming because of messing up their hair.’ Not true. I personally won’t swim after straightening my hair because it takes me awhile to do it and I don’t feel like washing, detangling, separating, detangling again, blow drying, and flat ironing my hair again so soon. It has nothing to do with ‘vanity’ as he claims. It has to do with the effort and time that went into our hair.

1:56 he brings up us needing to wash our hair daily again. No we do not. He points out there are special shampoos made so we can wash our hair daily which is true but that shit is expensive as FUCK and even if the one he’s looking at isn’t, it ends up being expensive anyways because we need to use a LOT of product in our hair. I think people with naturally straight/wavy hair only need to use the size of a quarter or less for all their hair? Correct me if I’m wrong. Well we need to use way more than that. I use an entire handful of shampoo and conditioner for my hair, and that’s just in SECTIONS. I wash my hair in 5 sections and use a handful each time. For more clarification as to why it’s expensive here’s a picture of all the products I use when I wear my hair curly:

Looks like it would last awhile because the bottles are tall and the containers are wide and tall. But guess what. It doesn’t last long at all and here’s how expensive those products are from Walmart which is my go to store. Whole Blends Conditioner: $7.68. Cantu Moisturizing Curl Activator Cream; $5.97. Cantu Define & Shine Custard; $9.83. Cantu Complete Conditioning Co-wash; $4.97. Cantu Leave-in Conditioning Repair Cream; $5.97. In total I spend $34.42 on my hair. Not counting my shampoo because it’s in a clear container attached to the shower and I don’t remember what kind it is, but I can say for sure it’s cheap. The shampoo Greg brings up is called Natural Daily Shampoo for thick and curly hair which is on Amazon. The shampoo itself costs $10.95 and I can’t see how much the shipping would cost because I don’t have an Amazon account. But I can tell you rn that shampoo is not worth it. We do not have to wash our hair daily, so why the fuck would I spend $10.95+ just so I can? My hair is going to be just as clean and just as undamaged without it. Also, not everyone’s hair is the same. Not every product is going to work on everybody’s hair. My mom uses a far more expensive brand for her curls than I do, so does my sisters. All of them are different brands. I’ve used my mom’s stuff before and it didn’t keep my curls tame like it does hers. My hair got huge, dry and very frizzy.

2:04 just because we don’t wash our hairy daily doesn’t mean we don’t shower daily. Because I wear my hair straight, I wear a shower cap when I bathe which is daily. When we wear our hair curly, we still shower daily but we don’t wash it. You know what we do though? Wet our hair to keep the moisture in and prevent it from gettin big and frizzy. Wanna know how long it takes for my hair to feel gross, smell bad and my scalp start to itch? A week.

2:33 ‘if you’re a black person maybe consider just using conditioner. So it can smell good all week rather than not washing it for a week.’ We have to use leave in conditioner which is a lot more expensive than normal conditioner. If we use normal conditioner, we would be washing our hair daily. With leave in conditioner, we can leave it in for longer than a day. But the second you wet your hair, it’s out and you gotta wash your hair again. So either way, we still ain’t washing our hair daily.

3:35 no Greg you were not right at all. You were completely wrong. I’d say try harder to get these facts right, but I’d rather you just stop talking about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

3:45 ‘if you have an opinion on a type of hair it doesn’t mean you hate them. It means you have a fair and reasonable opinion.’ No. You have a racist viewpoint about our hair because you were never educated about us and now when people are trying to, you get pissy and defensive. Nobody should have that kind of opinion on a different hair type. Questions? Yes PLEASE ask us questions because we would love to educate you! Stating things about our hair and then acting like it’s true for every black person? Not okay and pretty racist.

Black Hair (Daily Care)

I’m going to try and make this post shorter by not continuously repeating things I’ve already said in this post or in my last ones. I don’t want to type ‘we can’t wash our hair daily’ 20x again. If you aren’t watching the video just assume by the title that I totally would be saying that sentence on repeat if I hadn’t already decided not too.

0:13. ‘Black hair is a huge issue right now and instead of trying to resolve the issue a lot of people just want everyone to shut up about it.’ It literally wasn’t an issue and it didn’t have to become an issue. You made it an issue when you presented your opinions as facts, made racist remarks, ignored every black man and woman that tried to correct you, insisted you knew better than people who have that hair type, grouped black people together, and whined about being attacked over something you brought on yourself.

0:30 ‘Black people don’t wash their hair because it’s too much work.’ Uh honey, you do realize I can read the text behind you right? This woman did say it got to be too much work for her to wash her hair, and then goes on to say that she pays someone to do it every WEEK during the summer and every two weeks during the winter. He’s literally presenting this as if this woman only said, ‘I don’t want wash my hair ever because it’s so much work!’ And just completely ignores the part where she states she pays for someone to wash it for her. Her hair ain’t dirty. You mad that we paying people to do our hair now?

0:58. The text behind him says that this woman wash/rinses her hair daily. Okay so by rinse she means she just wets like, we’re supposed to do daily. We literally have to do that. The way the sentence is phrased it doesn’t sound like she actually fully washes her hair daily and instead switches between wetting and actually washing it. Like we’re supposed to do.

1:05. ‘You guys don’t know your hair as well as I do.’ In what world is that true????? I haven’t mentioned this before because honestly, it wasn’t very relevant but I apparently have to pull every damn fact out to show how this guy is wrong. So fun fact, just like literally everybody else, not every black person has the same curl pattern. One thing we do have in common is that our hair be dry and fragile af and our hair is like this because it’s curly. The curlier the hair the less moisture it’s able to hold. Those with curlier hair aren’t able to get their natural hair oil all the way down to the ends. Because of that, our hair gets dry and will break easily and if we wash it too often, it will also break easily. We are told to use shampoo once or twice a week and to make sure it’s gentle. Guess what the text behind Greg fully says? ‘I’m not relaxed and wash/rinse my hair daily. My hair has grown much longer than it was when I was relaxed. The secret is not to use harsh shampoo.’ In translation ‘I wet my hair everyday and use soft shampoo once or twice a week.’ How do I know it translates to that? Because if we use shampoo, even if non harsh shampoo, too often it’ll take out our natural oil which we need so ours curls don’t break.

1:15. ‘If you allow your hair to get dry and brittle that’s on you.’ I want to scream. Because of our hair texture, it absorbs water less quickly but it also gets dry a lot faster. Which is why we wet it everyday so it won’t be dry for that day. It’s not possible for our hair to hold moisture for longer than a day. This in response to someone saying ‘Washing your hair shouldn’t make it thin, unless your hair gets tangled and then breaks when you are detangling.’ I detangle my hair while I’m washing it and then again when I’m out the shower, but my hair is still wet. Our hair gets tangled very easily. You can just let it sit there or gently touch it or push a piece back and next thing you know it’s SUPER tangled. It’s basically as if you went to sleep with your hair down and woke up with every strand in a knot. And guys I could be wrong, but like, when white people comb their hair doesn’t it come out sometimes because of the tangles??? Or is that just a curse us blacks gotta live with????

1:31. Text says ‘washing your hair too many times stripes the natural moisture from your hair.’ He states that our hair wouldn’t be dry if we conditioned our hair more often. No dude. That’s just how our hair be.

1:45. Stripping the oils are brought up again. He insists it’s because of the products, which is not true cause again, it’s just how our hair be.

1:53 ‘People try crappy products and say “nothing will work.” and that is absolutely stupid.’ Yeah we try a shit ton if products. Because not every product works for everybody’s hair so we gotta keep trying till we find the right one. But the products have nothing to do with our hair being dry.

2:15. We learn that Greg does not know the difference between conditioner and leave in conditioner. He seems to think you just wash your hair daily with leave in conditioner when literally every woman on the planet can tell you, that is not true.

2:46. He advertises daily shampoo that is meant for all hair types. Every black woman is now cackling because we know that ‘all hair types’ politely translates to ‘not for curly hair.’

3:42. States he talked to a salon owner of 30 years, what he continues to say proves that he still learned nothing.

4:08. ‘You need to know how to take proper care of your hair!’ I’m not shocked that he thinks black women are so dumb that they go through their entire lives not knowing how to wash their own damn hair. He also goes on to call us lazy for not washing our hair often enough for him.

4:23. ‘I researched it, I talked to professionals. I know what I’m talking about.’ This is all I have to say to that sentence:

4:44. Nobody forces their kids to ‘hot comb’ their hair. Not anymore. We did when we were first allowed into white schools because back then we were told and convinced that we had to be as white as possible. Do you seriously think a mom is going to sit there wash their daughter’s hair, detangle it, separate it, detangle it again, dry it a little, blow dry it and then hot comb it without their child having asked them to do it? It takes a long ass time to do all that! Especially with a kid because they don’t sit still. Also literally nobody uses a hot comb anymore, we stopped using it once this nifty thing called a flat iron came around.
