swampman posted:I'm not really an expert on that conec, I just know that the red army rapes in Germany happened, and under much different circumstances than these rapes you're talking about, and any rape, whenever against whoever, is sad to me. I have also seen in the news that some women did make up sexual assaults by migrants, and like, we live in the age of cell phones people, where's the footage, but maybe I just have the blinders on. It should comfort you to know that I dont get to set public policy with my backwards opinions.
absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

conec posted:in cornel west's intellectual opinion, i`m right
hold the phone. not only the rappers themselves, but also the black academic, have spoken. an undefined but representative number of rappers, and at least one black academic, have spoken, on this issue. i guess it really is time for the cause of anti-misogyny-in-rap to be taken up by white teenagers who know little about rap and in fact actively dislike it

conec posted:i don`t know why you are denying it lol
rap is not particularly misogynistic (i.e. by comparison to rock/edm/whatever). popular music, indeed popular culture in general, is misogynistic. this is a function of patriarchy, which in turn has a symbiotic relationship with capitalism. singling out an inherently black genre of music for criticism ignores this fundamental truth in favor of an imperialist view of black masculinity. this is why i deny it lol
conec posted:if you really want to assert that rap is not more demeaning to women than other popular music, you are in full on denial.
This makes me think of "which is more racist, the north or the south" arguments
conec posted:petrol i have a genius IQ
obviously i take conec's side in whatever this dispute is about, but IQ is probably a fake idea. also if you look at who society considers 'intelligent' they often believe all sorts of stupid things anyway. people probably are roughly equally intelligent given similar opportunities to express it.

conec posted:well wait i dont agree with u really... by saying i agree w u i meant u can have high IQ and still have backward thoughts or be a waste of space. no i dont think my brain functions at the same level as someone w a low Q
i don't know what a brain level is but let's agree to this agree.
