The Kardashians and their racism, cultural appropriation and overall problematic/tone-deaf behavior
Before we get into this thread a disclaimer:
Letâs start with Kim. Kim has a long history of consistently stealing from other cultures for her own profit. She has consistently been racially insensitive and when called out for cultural appropriation, instead of apologizing she responds with this:
The first issue is her calling her braids âBo Derek braidsâ. Bo Derek stole these braids from black culture back in the 70s. Black women and men have been wearing braids for thousands of years and they date back to 3500 BC. Braids have a significant history behind them.
The issue here is that Miss Kim feels zero remorse and defends herself when sheâs called out for her harmful behavior. This woman is stealing from black culture and getting praised for it while actual black women are called âghettoâ and even fired from jobs for the same styles.
Now letâs get into her consistent blackfishing. It is one thing to tan it is another to change your race.
Brown skin girl
Another issue with her hair: her changing her hair texture??? Sheâs literally wearing yaki hair no words. This is a white, Armenian woman.
Not @ her constantly blackfishing and then befriending and defending a notorious racist
But that wouldnât be the first time Kim has been a hypocrite. Here are just some of the gross and tone deaf things sheâs said and done.
Letâs discuss her paper magazine cover. This photo shoot concept was stolen from a photo shoot from the 70s for a book called jungle fever. The book is, I shit you not, all about the fetishization is black women and their bodies. The irony.
Letâs also discuss Kim and her family harassing Jordyn Woods but then openly supporting Tristan Thompson, the man who was to blame for that situation in the first place! Just say you hate black women and go bc omfg
To finish off the Kim section of this thread, here are just some more of the time deaf things sheâs said and done. The fact that this woman still gets away with it to this day baffles me. The last photo especially, she has to make everything about her, even a t*rrorist attack
Now letâs get into our Bantu queen Khloeyâall better grab a snack because this is a long one
yâall better grab a snack because this is a long one
First letâs start off with this because what, and I can not stress this enough, the fuck possessed her to make her think this was okay???? SHE DRESSED AS A SLAVE OWNER FOR HALLOWEEN! IMDBDJSKSSJJS help me pls I can not believe this is a real thing sheâs gotten away with
Letâs also talk about how her and Scott disick posted this, thinking it was okay and the fact that it is still up to this day (oh and miss Kendall liked too)
Now Khloe, just like her sisters, has a long history of consistently stealing black hairstyles. Sheâs also claimed that she âdoes not see colorâ but when people claim that what theyâre really doing is denying responsibility for their privilege and the existence of modern racism
Letâs also get into her ridiculous tanning. Maâam youâre white
Now Khloe has stolen from almost every culture you can think of. Also that caption âHabibi loveâ WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEANISJSSJSJSJ that literally translates to âmy love loveâ
Letâs also talk about her directly stealing from black celebrities. Sheâs copied this Rihanna look (with a durag) not once but twice. A durag is literally used to protect black hair YOUâRE WHITE MAâAM
Just gonna leave these here because honestly I have no words
Finally, onto Kylie and Kendall. A lot of their issues are directly linked to one another so Iâm giving them a joint section of the thread. Letâs start with them attempting to profit off of Tupac & Biggie. Again what on earth made them think this was okay????
Ofc we canât do this thread without talking about THAT commercial. The one where our queen Kendall ended police brutality with a can of Pepsi and then proceeded to cry on national television when she got called out. She walked so Laura Lee could run
Her sister takes after Candle when it comes to being called out on being racially insensitive. Exhibit B your honor, Kylie being called out by Amanda Stenberg then proceeding to shade her for absolutely no reason rather than apologizing
This is something that Iâm surprised isnât more talked about. Back in 2016 our woke queen starred in a campaign for a fast fashion brand called mango literally inspired by and based off of African tribal prints/clothing. THIS WHITE GIRL WAS THE FACE OF A COLLECTION ABOUT AFRICA
This whole clothing line was a mess. Stealing from chola culture, using photos of deceased rappers for profit without even getting permission from their families then getting sued over it skdjjdhdj a mess.
And it isnât the only clothing line theyâve done either. Youâd think Kylie wouldâve learned from the mess that was Kendall+Kylie but she also stole designs from a black owned indie brand for a different clothing line. She literally ordered in bulk from them and stole their design
She takes after Khloe and Kim stealing from Indian culture
Iâm gonna lose my mind the fact that they do this repeatedly and think itâs okay
That last photo is literally from January 2020 they do not learn and they do not care. These people profit off of other cultures with zero remorse
YOU CANT TELL ME THIS ISNT INTENTIONAL the caption âwhat I wish I looked like all the timeâ no words
NOT THE YAKI HAIR AND DREADS BYE also wearing a bindi these girlies do not get tired
She wants to be Beyoncé so bad. Chanel vs Walmart
Just a few more tone deaf things sheâs said and done
Iâm not gonna be discussing Kris or Kourtney in this thread because theyâre not nearly as problematic as the other girls but this brings us to the end of this thread. If yâall can think of anything else leave it in the replies and thank you for reading if you got this far.
To finish the thread off: an excellent article about the problem with the Kardashians https://www.google.com/amp/s/chicago.suntimes.com/platform/amp/2018/7/19/18371414/why-we-should-stop-celebrating-kylie-jenner
Someone replied with this and I had to add it to thread bc what the actual hell they donât even try to hide their fetishization of black men https://twitter.com/blxcisme/status/1242488626312818690/video/1
SHE ALSO SAYS THE N WORD IM GONNA LOSE IT WHAT THE HELL
Hold on cause thereâs MORE I canât believe Iâm still adding to this thread. She wore a shirt with the confederate flag on it, wore a niqab as a âdisguiseâ and this is some fansâ encounter with her.
This vine too...
A final disclaimer before I mute this thread lol cause I keep having to say the same thing over and over again.
Whew ok last thing Iâm adding to the thread I think but this video is so off. The fact that they refuse to acknowledge their privilege
