Please enlighten me since you are so familiar with the GC population's "poignancy"?

There is no discussing or informing with anyone who is drunk... And yeah, we can all K.I.M.

I think folks the spew bigotry and hatred are unworthy enough for me to say anything to them. Why?

*sigh* I don't expect every black person walking the face of God's green Earth to be a human history book. Yes, some terms used today are derived from negative meanings: Jigga Boo, N*gga, etc. but then there are some which no one can truly pinpoint an origin. Most of these terms used today where created by slave owners to pit us against ourselves in the first place.
Ex: Lighter (mulatto) skinned blacks vs Darker skinned blacks
"Good hair" vs "Bad Hair"
Bourgie vs country (that n_ _ _ _ _ thinks he's better than you)
One really has to question why we are hating on ourselves in the first place and why we don't tackle this self hate in the second place

Not at all....just one of the older terms I thought would fit well with that line.

So you meant "Ex: Lighter skinned and mulatto blacks vs Darker skinned blacks."
Gotcha.
