I mean, hoteps are basically a small group of assholes within the relatively small group that is Black American men, right? Of course it's not gonna be a ton of people, but the ones that do exist become notorious for being terrible to women.

Yeah, they mostly stand out since they're basically an underprivileged group who takes it out making GBS threads on people with even less.

Basically a black-specific equivalent of people like incels and fringe political weirdos.

Hoteps are really just a subset of incels, even if only by convergence instead of direct lineage.

The aughities and early '10s in GBS was what they make fun of reddit and tumblr now.

Tons of insane stdh.txt and totally cringe poo poo that people went nuts for and got super hype.

Probably one of the ur-examples

A thread full of people falling over themselves to praise a gimmick pirate rapper as the best hip hop they've ever heard.
Captain Dan & the Scurvy Crew - From the Seas to the Streets

quote:

The really sad thing is that I can relate to pirates better than I can to real rappers. "Struggles" or not, I don't care much for music about conspicuous consumption, irresponsible drug use, extreme car modifications, and shooting cops.

Somehow, I think claiming you have more in common with 16th century Barbary pirates then with inner city black people is far more of a self-burn then you ever imagined.

The thread is so full of amazing quotes including quite a few people who go "well, I don't like 'rap' music but I gave this a try and you all are wordsmith geniuses, amazing"

The critics in that thread were dealing with multiple people, in 2009, honestly posting the same borderline racist dismissals of rap that my parents were yelling at me in the early 90s.

Rap and Hip Hop by 2009 had already solidified itself as serious music worthy of academic study no less valid then jazz or rock.

To see people praising a bunch of white boys playing as pirates and co-opting the language of hip hop "flintlock glock" etc. and then casually dismiss the entire field of music would infuriate anyone with even a passing interest in the music.

If anything they couldn't go nearly as hard as the thread deserved or they'd eat bans for 'threadshitting'

I'M GONNA GET YOU DUCK

i remember really enjoying captain dan at first, but in retrospect it is GBS/SA/internet as gently caress in that it was an okay gag that broke-brained nerds ran into the ground immediately and beyond repair (myself included, sorry college roommate). i tried to revisit it when it popped up in some thread a while ago and couldn't make it past the first track. i think people would be less harsh on it if it weren't for the fact that there were like 4 albums for a joke that was just barely funny enough for a single. and pentyne is right, the critics even at their most obnoxious were still right to call out the lovely racist aspects surrounding it, and i can't fault them for getting me to pull my head out of my rear end in that respect even if i thought they were being mean at the time.

that said, in the big blowup callout thread with the absolutely abysmal diss tracks on both sides, people made a bunch of rap recommendations which blew my tiny mind, so my ultimate takeaway from the whole experience is that more people should listen to A Tribe Called Quest

I mean it's the same sexist and antisemitic poo poo as any fascist white nationalist movement, they're just not bombing churches or shooting up nightclubs so point and laugh at the weird dry dicks who think vaginas are haunted or whatever, but on the big list of dangerous hate groups I doubt they'd break the top 500 in the US.

Also you can tell they're not a hate group worth worrying about they're not directly funded by FBI or CIA.

I had my music on shuffle not too long ago and it played some rap that must have come from here, but it was a diss track about the pirate rap guys. Don’t even remember downloading the thing. Fun track, though.

Edit: oh crap I’m way behind. Turns out it was Pieces of Hate.
