After becoming mostly famous for perming his hair, the koonery continues. Now, the man himself, is bleaching his skin. Thoughts?

I mean in the ancient days, a black person with blonde hair meant they were unclean. That concept prolly still rings true today but we aren’t living in our dominate culture.

Seeing this transition isn’t shocking.

I hate all coons with a passion

Not as bad as Sammy Sosa bleaching his skin

picture in op is so f***ed up lol

but i feel bad for niggas who feel like they have to do this smh

coonery that affects people’s lives like politicians, make me mad

but this kinda s***, i can’t even call coonery, and would prefer if we didn’t do that in a space that is obviously full of yt ppl

it’s just s violent self hatred. i feel bad. racism in soccer is also crazy from what i heard.

idk if feel too bad for him bc i’m sure he’s getting paid and if u talked to him he’d say wild s***. he prolly got money and will be ight

but the situation makes me sad regardless

the “i no black!” s*** is funny but it kinda makes me mad how little people understand dominican history 😐

trujillo enacted so much physical AND psychological violence on his people, that they are still trying to recover from. it’s frustrating when nb / non spanish people joke about their rampant anti - blackness without considering the historical context that brought the island to its present ignorance

same can be said ALL OVER the caribbean. every island has its own self hatred thing, and it all stems from colonization, white supremacy, slavery, etc. at a certain point we have to take our own responsibility, but when a lot of our islands are still directly impacted by these histories, i don’t find s*** like this funny at all. not one bit tbh

There’s no excuse for this

Dominicans are the kings of koonery

it’s not about making excuses i just don’t see how dogging on this nigga is productive for anyone, when we can have a more nuanced convo about colorism across the diaspora, because it’s one of several problems that black people face globally.

not tryna make excuses, i just don’t see how trying to make fun of him and calling him a coon on a forum with a lot of yt ppl is cool tbh

Blame society for making them believe that their dark skin isn’t acceptable.

Violent self hatred is a great summary

His wife a mid white woman too

can’t even tell the difference

theres actually lots of black people in here, including us

I’d really like to know where do you get most of the information that you post about regarding black people ?

thats a wild title, but yeah I hate the skin bleaching s*** and industry especially how prominent it is in South Asia

Blaming the effect and not the cause is sad

On the bright side, he's stopped straitening his hair

Show the picture where his face bleached but whole body black lol

Colourism is the worst. People feel like they need to change they skin to fit society’s beauty rules or whatever.

Everybody wanna be lightskin till they get sunburnt & or get skin cancer from just being on the beach or some dumb s***.

I can walk around in 30 degrees Celsius+ with no sunscreen and not break a sweat or get dizzy. I love my skin.

Never trust a nigga who straightens his hair, first of all

That's super sad, man.

I'm genuinely curious - I don't agree with bleaching skin either, but why do we look down upon that, and not necessarily other body modifications? Such as body altering surgeries, tattoos etc

Genuinely curious
