I don't know how to cover this story, but apparently a group of young black men in Chicago have suddenly discovered that if you dress nice, people tend to take you more seriously.
There are those who are intimidated by this level of power … those who held the power before are living in their own guilt and shame. So they are intimidated by this sight.
But we have to demonstrate to the rest of the world what it means not just to come together for our people, but how our liberation benefits all.
In summary, it's this meme:
While normies are laughing at Johnson, the Left is also angry.
From WBEZ in Chicago:
Online critics have described the trend as a form of respectability politics, claiming participants are making themselves more acceptable for white, mainstream society. But the quarter-zip enthusiasts push back on that critique, saying their intention is to be fashionable, build self-confidence, foster community and show Black men doing positive things while having fun ...
'I've seen some people online say, "You're just culture-appropriating or you're trying to fit into the white man's box,"' Dooley Johnson said. 'But that's not true because Black Americans have always had a sense of style, and that has a wide variety. But I have seen some people say we're trying to conform to white supremacy. But I don't believe that's true.'
We have black people calling other black people "white supremacists" because they throw on a few clothes from Kohl's.
'There is a long tradition of Black men taking symbols of elite spaces and repurposing them, sometimes just to be humorous, but sometimes [to express] identity and sometimes for defiance,' said [Chicago Fashion Coalition President Marquan] Jones, 28, who grew up in Austin and studied sociology at Cornell University. 'We take something that wasn't meant for us, and we make it ours, and we make it even more relevant and cool.'
The fight is whether black people are making white fashion cool through cultural appropriation, or if white fashion is turning black men into white supremacists.
The woke infighting is truly beyond satire!
