It's not just the pro-trump stuff though, there's also the case of being very pro-cop in that they helped get info about a french activist against their will or settings, we believe.
Disroot - A lot of people in the know about privacy seem to really like it.
Really though email is a bullshit communication medium and unless you're insisting on using GPG for every message and make sure your or other people's keys never got compromised I wouldn't rely on it.
Really hoping Dark Mail actually becomes a thing at some point. If it was that with locally stored encrypted email then email might actually be worth bothering with.
No. Internet 'culture' stole them from black people. to make themselves look 'cool' without having any connection to or care for the actual meaning of the words from a language that isn't theirs whilst not caring about or for the people who actually created it.
White people have historically and continue to do this and it needs to stop, not everything is for the taking.
Cultural exchange happens when things are freely given, not taken and black people keep pointing out that it and so much more has been taken from them whilst they are left with little to show for it whilst white people continue to use it for fame, power and money.
Well, you said it and I'm tired of explaining what actual black people who we both should be listening to have said, what they've been through etc.
I'm tired of running around doing all this work asking people, paying attention whilst you and people like you just pontificate in the comments and possibly continue taking things whilst people suffer.
So I'm done with this conversation.
Hope you come around eventually, but I'm not holding my breath.
Nope, there's a difference there in that they aren't taking something from ordinary people who need the money in order to survive. Actors, producers, directors etc have already been paid and besides, hollywood etc aren't exactly using that money to give back to society in any meaningful way most of the time.
Thank you so much for the more accurate names. Though a lot of black folks I know still do call it AAVE or B(V)E (Black (Vernacular) English), I'm not sure why.
You're correct that it's not a slang language. I wasn't aware that vernacular implied that, I appreciate the education!
Great question, I went and asked a Jewish friend about this and she said that Yiddish isn't really widely spoken any more. However most people who do speak it as a first language would be extremely flattered that someone who isn't Jewish is trying to learn it.
However, she also said that comparing AAVE to Yiddish is absurd because of how different the circumstances are in that people aren't actively taking Yiddish phrases as their own without caring about the culture they come from.
As for the rest of your post, it absolutely possibly, I and many others do so every day because that language and culture isn't mine nor theirs to use, take etc.
Also cultural exchange isn't what happens when people take something, but when it's freely given. Which black people keep saying it isn't but people do not care about them nor their needs, culture or other such things, so it remains a problem.
To answer your question, which may have been added later, if not apologies for missing it.
If you are talking about the singer elvis then:
I do not think elvis was right in what he did, a lot of white people take black culture and use it to gain power, money and notireity whilst the people who created it continue to suffer.
As far as I'm aware elvis did not help black people by giving them money directly, helping them gain more rights or anything similar therefore he should not be celebrated as much he sadly is.
Sure, happy to help! 🙂
