Dinesh D'souza's End of Racism is very good, its thesis is that once you correct for all the factors in black outcomes, the major problem is that they have a shitty culture of nihilism and failure justification.

You may also like the work of urban sociologists of the 1970s and 1980s before it became verboten to criticize black culture, even if it was in an attempt to help them. Patrick Moynihan, Charles Murray, Edward Banfield.

Another keyword to search with is "respectability politics." Anyone who hates respectability politics is a moron.

Has Aaron McGruder ever actually written a book, or at least an essay? I find him really interesting, due to The Boondocks and some of the other stuff he's done. He seems very pointedly aware of the struggles that black people still have to deal with in the United States, yet at the same time he's an extremely harsh critic of "black culture" as he perceives it.

But this is not where this phenomenon originates. White liberals worship a religion of egalitarianism. Jews worships themselves and biologically can not turn off their paranoia and tribalism. Together these two groups use blacks as a tool. White liberals gave up trying to elevate blacks to the level of whites so now are trying to deconstruct the West so we all end up in the dirt together. Jews LOVE this idea and instigate in only ways low trust Semitic psychopaths can. It's a three way codependent / symbiotic relationship. It's going to be fun seeing how all this plays out because it is obviously not sustainable.

Not afraid to say it. It has literally nothing to do with “class” or income levels like some people want you to think. This is just what black people in that position do. You’re not going to see any white guy like iceberg slim because White people do not do that shit because they know they’ll get killed in prison for it (pimping and pandering is a bad charge for a white)

Agreed. Basically we’d be doing the world a service by rounding them all up and sticking them on some ghetto island where they can all be gangsta together. Air drop food and guns once in a while to keep the humanitarians happy. The world would recoil in (feigned?) horror initially but once the shock settles everyone would realize how much nicer everything is. Fuck niggers.

Even so, black problems have direct consequences on the quality of life anywhere that they are. From behavioral issues in school to soiling cities with hip hop culture and blight, it is important that they shape up so that they don't fuck with everyone else. Most ethnic groups in the US have gotten their shit together enough that there are more wholesome apples than bad apples. Black culture is like the orc forge, constantly producing wicked, stupid, self-indulgent, souls that hold onto grievance-oriented ideologies. It's the worst America has to offer. Of course everyone has an interest in fixing their shit.

While I can't imagine it be written any other way, it probably is the most justified rage they could have.

Intellectual merit isn't the quality which determine value. Those willing to declare the supremacy of of the material world are ultimately violent nihilist, and if they are allowed any autonomy they will inevitably drag all those capable of living a meaningful existence (i.e., those capable of intuiting ideas) into an empty void
There is no reason to give them any sort of ethical consideration, and there's good reason to use them entirely as a means to an end, which given our current state of technology would best be done through organ harvesting or slavery.
It is also interesting that you bring up matters of taste. It's obvious to anyone paying attention that the period since the left gained a total hegemony over the world of artistic creation is that of the greatest and most drastic period of decline in the arts the human race has ever seen. What is more interesting is these intellectual and educated masters of culture have done more to facilitate the process in which all culture has been subsumed by pop culture and have come up with new paradigms for trying to convince people that consuming the right kind of popular media will really make you free. It's interesting to see the individual leftist consumer have the audacity to believe that the pop music or mcarthouse films they proudly shovel down are more than the applebee's l of culture while bashing suburbanites for eating at shitty chain restaurants. For a group of people who consider themselves so smart to be lacking even the most basic sense of self awareness is probably a good enough reason to justify harvesting their organs.

narcissism, i find, tends to be a response from insecurity
i'm not blaming those whom harbor it, but that's just what i see
there's still merit in narcissism, though. it can still be a developmental tool in some ways. affording a faux confidence to act through.

but yeah at some point high ego, especially empty and unearned ego really destroys meaningful development.
openness is really beneficial for development in many ways too, but imagine there's reasons, conscious or unconscious, they haven't completely adhered to the eurocentric condition
