my white neighbor (psych! all my neighbors are white) is blasting hip hop and I am deciding whether to go pound on his door and yell “HAVEN’T YOU PEOPLE TAKEN ENOUGH”

So I like jazz and the blues. Am I "taking" that music from you?
And "you people?" What do you mean by "you people?" That be some racist shit, yo.
I listen to metal, which is considered music for whites.It originates from rock, which originates from blues, which originates from music played by black slaves and former slaves.
So, basically, there is no pleasing that idiot.
Back in the day, it would be a white guy banging on my door telling me, a white guy, to stop listening to "negro music" and listen to music for my own race. Now I see it's black people who want to do the same. Either way, I guess I'm not allowed to listen to what I want.
Wait till somebody tells him agriculture started in Africa. He'll be going on about the superiority of hunting and gathering... oh wait, that was Africa as well.
Enjoy your IV alder, if you're not going to do things that originated in Africa, its about the only way you're getting nutrients.
So let me get this straight - a person created a form of music, so somehow because they are black and you are black, its "ours" and belongs to you as well as the other person.
However, if a person mugs someone, then just because that person was black and you are black, does not mean its "ours" and (quite rightly, responsibility for their bad behaviour does not belong to you as well as the other person.
I'm confused. Are black people a communistic Borg hive-mind or not?
Anyone can listen to any music they want to.
When I see my white friends running around listening to jazz I don't yell at them, I internally thank them for listening to jazz and not something stupid like the majority of rap.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
