This so called "black culture" just started coming into play in the last 4 decades. You have contradicted yourself many times going from not all black people, to some black people, to the culture, to African Americans, to calling me a ****ing ****** for asking you to get some facts together.
I feel for you and your experience but because of what happened to you, I could never trust your opinion on anything regarding the culture of a people. Everything you say is skewed and you keep saying "someone told me all i needed to know" or "i've seen all i have needed to see." Reading about "black culture" when we are DAMN AMERICANS IS STUPID! IT IS A PART OF AMERICAN CULTURE! To you, black culture is a synonym for niggerism (at least be more creative with made up words). We are all part of this culture. The things those people did to you is ****ed up, but does not excuse your bitchy mentality of an entire race because of the actions of a few. You said you don't mess with people who have the "black mentality", yet you keep coming back to this whole generalizations of black people.
Did you go to Stormfront for your information? I'm sure you probably know what I am talking about. You of all people almost certainly know what Stormfront is.
When people ask questions that would just give a contrasting view of a another race, you claim it is a trick. A fallacy. "I see through you." I still don't know what the hell you were talking about. I was asking you if you knew factual information on what happen on the colonization of Asia and you went A-wall.
I'm not trying to change you. Not my kind of thing. I just want you to see that you can not put all people of one race in a box. You agree with that and then turn around and do it again. I don't even blame you honestly. That experience ****s with you to this day, and you feel affirmed in your belief because the ones around you tend to do the same sort of stuff you believe lead to you being raped. I am not going to fault you there.
There is a lot of shit that needs to change among black people. I will address your issue on the black mentality. This is something I wrote a while ago. It got a lot of responses but I'm going to focus on an exchange between me and another young lady:
I take major offense to stupidness
Cause it comes from mouths, who have no defensive refutations
Don't know the source from which ya words are based in
Normally I'd have nothing to do with you
Didn't you hear? I'm sick with the flu
And it got knowledge you never wanted to catch
So I suggest, you bundle up
With all the things that make you comfortable
Gather ghetto ensemble and static entourage
So you can go, and flauge/flodge (meaning try to be cool)* some more
But your aura is lacking allue
Tickling the mental stimuli is a chore
Let's not kid: you already insecure
So let's add to the list of 24's and some baggy pants, no belt, brief droughs
Two miles an hour so everybody sees you
Boo Boo the fool, "Look at me! I'm cool!"
Scrunching up ya nose, man ya'll dudes is hoes.
But the women that chase you are bitches, by definition
Since they call you dogs but complain, "Where the real men?"
Even I chuckle at the death of chilvary
And these are the prospects of women meant for me?
* (how the hell do you spell it?!?!?!) I can't figure it out. Stupid slang, LOL.

Comment from the young lady: "u r a breath of fresh air. its amazing how much smarter our people could be if they would READ. but again, we can't push our people to educate themselves when they don't care to push themselves. Love the message!"
Me: "I actually addressed reasons why the culture is that way in the entire piece. Talks about reading, parents being just big ass kids, stuff like that. We gotta take care of each other: White, Black, Latin, Asian, Native American, whatever. The Haves are playing the game, "Divide and Conquer."
We gotta keep each other abreast on all aspects of the game. Don't let those you care about get yanked by their chain.
There is common kinetic wisdom among us all."
Young Lady: "I hear you Aaron, but there is only so much we can do. We can continue to preach to people, continue to push them towards wisdom, continue to "try" and educate them, but if they are settled in their ignorance, what else can we do for them???? I think that once a person reaches a certain age and level of maturity, us reversing their way of thinking is out of the question. They are who they are at that point.
Not trying to preach or anything, but the rest is pretty much up to GOD. I can sit here and enlighten the ones I love of how important it is for them to read, know their rights, be more conscious of politics and their society but when they are out of my sight, all that I've said has gone in one ear and out the other.
If you know of a better route, enlighten me"
Me: "One of my goals in life is to provide people with tools to understand how to attain knowledge. As I put in something else on Facebook:
"Knowledge is analyzation, not research
Research to rehearse ya lines
So when ya speak there's nothing new to find"
later I said...
"“But why do idiots exist?”
Hmmm, I'm not sure how to answer this.
People take what's around them for truth.
The educated youth, don't really give a damn.
The non suspicious voter, salutes to Uncle Sam"
- In context, I'm saying that people simply take what they are surrounded with as their truth: culture, Academia, and so on without ever taking a step back and looking at it. When they act, they do not even know the foundation that their actions stem from.
Example: Afrocentricity is cool and all, but is often taken into the same general context that makes racism so prominent. You can't claim you were kings and queens when you know NOTHING of the origin of "your" people.
No one can gain knowledge without at first having at least some basic understanding of why they do what they do. I hate to see people have sex and then be like "Damn, I feel bad. I should repent." Rinse. Cycle. Repeat.
They don't know why they do what they do. All that people who have some sort of awareness can do is put the tools out there. After that, it's all them.
I remember I used to think if I couldn't do for all, I shouldn't care at all. I was 16 then. Now I feel like I have some sort of duty because even the idiots affect my loved ones. If the idiots continue to reproduce then this will not end, the contradictions continue, and we will see more and more kids named ABCDE (pronouced "ab-sa-de"; my mother is a labor and delivery nurse and someone REALLY name their child A-B-C-D-E.....).
I want my future daughter to live in a world where people are more self aware. It's not realistic, but without hope there is nothing."
