Lovecraft Country - HBO series Official Thread - Premieres August

[November 17]

So no one thinks that monster is his uncle? Why is this one black but the other ones from the first 2 episodes were white...

Ok, it's possible, but my limited knowledge of Shoggoths tells me that they are either born (Christina delivered one that came out of a cow) or a person can be bitten by one and then would transform into one (Sheriff Eunice Hunt was bitten by one and then transformed). The last time we saw Uncle George alive he was ailing from a gunshot wound and then died. So, at what point and time do you think Uncle George was transformed into a Shoggoth?

Episode 8 of Lovecraft Country is the number one reason I don't date white women at all. They don't understand what we go through just being black so they won't understand shit our children will go through just being black.

They will look at them and many times they don't even have the ability to empathize because they just don't fucking get it.

"What do you MEAN your teacher saw the White kids picking on you and did nothing but you were suspended or expelled once you retalliated?

What do you mean you scored a B on the test, but looked at your classmate's test who had an A+ and you had the same answers as you had?

What do you mean every time there is a disturbance in the class the teacher calls your name and tells YOU to be quiet?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

They don't get it. And most of them don't want to. They love their privilege and cannot see beyond it.

I have to ask..... why was Ruby looking for Christina to have sympathy for Till? Why would she expect her to any way?

Yeah, white people have priviledge but why would expect them, hell any of them to give it up? That, unfortunately, is human nature....



Yeah, sorry fam, I tendency to get a little too black pilled every now and then..

It addressed white folk on all levels

White racist liberals interracial relationships white feminists

We cannot FORCE them to care

 

[playahaitian]

Don't like how all these really smart black folk keep falling for her tricks

 

[playahaitian]

[playahaitian]

Showing a reenactment of his murder on white women...

What da fukh is with the pickaninnies? I’m thinking I got the rest figured (although I’m still gonna haveta watch again), but who’re them bitches s posed to be?

It is the very thing she is afraid of the world seeing her as.

Fucked up what christina used to begin her immortality journey.

Or the ultimate attempt at empathy. There is duality in all that we see. She related the best way she knew how.

Bruh even dealing with the half black half white woman I am dating she acts like racism doesnt exist....but I get it shes with her mom most the time and her dad wasnt a real one for the movement of us

I'm not surprised. What did Dave Chappelle say, white women were in on the heist they just didn't like their cut

They lack empathy almost as much as white men, and it's not that far behind. It's not close enough to home for them

Black people are empathetic people. I am almost as mad when I see a white person being beat up by a cop as I am with a black person. The difference is, with the black person I connect with that more, so if I feel 100 for a Black person beaten or killed by a cop, it's like 80 for a White person.

The difference is it is FAR less for them...maybe in the 30s or less, and I'm being generous

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

They don't get it. And most of them don't want to. They love their privilege and cannot see beyond it.

And this what we must understand. It's not about hating them. It probably may not mean that anyone in an interracial relationship should loving that person if the relationship is real. It's aboout understanding that that is human nature and it's not personal. I think if took our feelling out it, stop trying to make them empathize with, or "like" us - and make them respect us.
The US doesn't like China - but they damn sure do not want a war with them (personally I don't think "we" want a war with any nation that could hit back as hard as the US could hit them).
