White people quick to forget how they treated Muslims and people from the Middle East post 9/11 but I guess we aren’t going to have that conversation
THIS TOO
YouTube keeps up songs with the f slur about gay people but removes a song with one line about robbing Asians.
They got Beanie Man's "boom bye bye" up?
2.2 million
white people really want blacks and asians to beef so bad to take the heat off themselves lmaoooo
Username and avy to post very perplexing tbh
I just want yall to explain to me why there wasn't a single song removed that contained any amount of stereotypes/racism toward black people, after the BLM protests and countless black lives taken in 2019-20 alone
Why suddenly take action and censor now over such a tame line? Like I said they waste no time coming for black people in this country

You think YouTube changed their mind in 5 days
ok if youtube not the ones removing it that's very different tbh

Yes yet people jumping straight to their reactionary dismissals and whataboutisms

fr the person who made the thread about the asian assault that got mad replies was a white man

lowkey op and the tweet in op fault
I wouldn’t be mad at all if YouTube always had this energy for songs/videos with racist s*** in them

Theyre “taking action” now to save face because the surge in asian hate crimes has gained mainstream attention just like tv shows were replacing their white-voiced black characters suddenly last summer because of the blm protests.
Its all performative and directing resentment towards the communities being victimized is missing the point because nobody is actually being helped, just pandered to.
It's all media framing, you falling for it in real time. People die every day in this country, dont try to pin in on the most oppressed racial group in the country just because a couple of black folk was suspects. That's just foul
What?

It's just odd to me that their first target in this performative censoring was a 7 year old song by a black man
What else could that imply? Besides them thinking black men are the main ones perpetuating these crimes and that hiphop is the most dangerous medium message wise
That's what the optics are. That's why I cane itt saying what I said. There's PLENTY enough other truly vile and racist s*** toward Asians that could have been censored first

Yeah i agree with u there for sure, painting black people as the perpetrators absolves the white supremacist + imperialist west of the blame when those are the main factors fueling anti-asian and sinophobic sentiment
The irony is that the song was literally a how to for home invasion is completely fine for 7 years until some crimes are committed that are completely unrelated to the song
Conspiracy headass Lol
There’s a difference between conspiracy and conspiracy theory
White people definitely want minorities fighting amongst each other as opposed to fighting white supremacy
That’s it, that seals the deal. I’ve been a U.S citizen for 69 years and in all my time of being one I have never seen a streaming service this rigged. I’ve had enough of it...until you fix this country. I’ll be packing my bags to Alaska where they actually know how to run a country. BYE
makes no sense to me, these lyrics didnt really seemed racist at all, and this is coming from someone of asian descent too.
