Why were they blue?
Blue on black violence is a real epidemic in the ghetto.
Because they can't give them charcoal black skin
>>78370682
It's the only other color black kids come out as.
they are just ashy
They were ashy.
Black people can get ashy if they don't regularly moisturize.
>>78370682
They were ashy. They explained it constantly.
The real question is why didn't the fat one become brown when they gave her a make over.
>>78370682
Disney didn't want to be racist.
>>78370682
Cause it's implied that they're especially dark skinned black kids, and them being especially ugly and terrible black kids would mean that the show was associating ugliness and shittyness with very dark skin. The black community would absolutely lose its shit over that fact, so Disney did what they could to keep their ultra dark skinned evil black kids by making them blue.
>>78370791
That's racist to blue people!
>>78370682
they ratchet-ass crips.
Because the show was garbage
They're not blue, they're green. Adjust your TV.
The super dark ass niggas tend to be the ghetto ones you can't trust. You can't comfortably have super dark-ass niggas on TV without it being all ratchet and shit. Color the thugs blue and act like their a darker nigga.
Light niggas are usaully akward as fuck and won't stab you in the back. Chances are, they got white parent or grandparent.

I've never gotten the whole MUH LIGHT SKIN and MUH DARK SKIN thing that blacks have going. There's some of it in the latino community, my dad and I are both dark as shit compared to other Puerto Ricans but the most we get is nicknames like "the black guy" or "darkies". Jokes on them, it takes me forever to sunburn.
>>78370791
Do blacks themselves not hold the view that darker-skinned blacks are inherently shittier as people? I've heard enough black comedians making jokes about it to think it's part of black culture.

It's because they're ashy. They weren't actually blue they just never took care of their skin. When it dried out and started to peel it gives off a bluish-white look. And I assume they have a ton of dandruff too.
>>78371091
They're not shitty, they're just little bitches.

>I've never gotten the whole MUH LIGHT SKIN and MUH DARK SKIN thing that blacks have going.
It's almost as if being a minority didn't stop you from being racist, despite what SJWs says.
They're really ashy. I'm guessing they used blueish grey instead of just regular grey because it looked better.
>>78371175
It's not really racist, it's colorist.
But more it's probably to do with the idea that light skin is good skin like straight hair is good hair.
>>78371233
>It's not really racist, it's colorist.

When you are "half-breed" you become a different race than either "pure-breeds". It's racism.

100%
I don't want to contribute to stereotypes. I'm black myself but the real, real dark ones of my people tend to be very aggressive.
This is a horrible thread.
It's probably because the Proud family were a good black family, comparable to a good white family. Those guys were just street trash. Wearing overalls, for some reason.
>>78371629
From slavery. The darker skinned blacks worked in the field and the lighter skinned blacks worked in the master's home. The ones who worked in the home tended to live longer, get treated better, and have easier lives than those that worked on the field.
Then the years afterward didn't help matters as because the pigmentation of their skin they were treated better, and depending on how "white" they were they would cross, that is pretend to be white. Once they did so they'd essentially pretend that they basically disowned their family. In other words it's a deep and complicated topic.
I think it's a reference to the way that Krishna was colored. He was especially dark-skinned for an Indian man, but in paintings was always represented as blue because dark skin looked more sinister.
>>78371859
No they were just ashy, as in they don't use lotion.
>>78371762
Seriously what's wrong with it? I've seen some real bad threads about race, so far the "worst" this thread has gotten is calling Boyega ugly. Which I can't really disagree on.

It's true, the house slaves also tended to be the ones that were raped by their masters, and so that's why their children were always lighter skinned, because the children became their master's slaves too, despite being the children of said master.
Slavery was fucked up.
>>78371902
House and Field Nigger is sad but true.
>>78371902

it's very true, read up on it from non biased sources and you'll see that a lot of the lighter skinned African slaves were treated better and some even were thought how to read.

It's not really racist though, it's just another way of dividing people up.
But goddamn I got really fucking pissed off at a coworker of mine (white) trying to tell ME what is and is not racist (Puerto Rican). He insisted that you can only be racist if you're in a position of power, whereas it's only prejudice if you're not in a position of power. That's some grade A horse shit right there. I get so sick of all the goddamn white guilt some of my coworkers ooze. It's to the point where they have so much white guilt that it wraps right back around to white superiority, because only the white man is responsible for all of our problems and we should feel good that there are white people that feel bad.

From what I can tell it goes right back to the old and tired "the definition was changed" which I think is complete bullshit.
My dad despises Muslims and middle easterners. He hates them with a great passion, and hates them even more because his dark skin and facial hair makes him look like them, even though he's hispanic. But what is that if not racism? It sure as hell is more than just prejudice.
Or hell, I have a black friend who has a Black Power family. Like, his family doesn't believe that black people should ever interact with white people, talk to them, shop at their stores, go to their churches. They firmly believe that black people are the master race and that white people are sent from Hell to test them. How is that not racist?

Darker skinned people being seen as more terrible and evil/violent is a stereotype that has been hammered into America since it's early beginnings. That's why all of the house slaves are usually lighter skinned.

Many pre western colony/invasion countries have historically favored white skin over dark. China and Japan were and still are notorious for this.

Holy shit I haven't thought about this in years. Solid
>>78371572
Here, let me put you back on track:
Suga Mama was a mean cunt to her successful son, coddled the deadbeat because she could more or less control him, Lacienega was a two-faced cunt, Dijonay was a two-faced cunt, the boy had little personality, and the white girl was a genuinely nice person. Penny was alright, but that might have to do with her only company being her foil, again, save for the white girl.
>>78376391
>That's why all of the house slaves are usually lighter skinned.
The house slave were lighter skinned because they generally were the children of the slave owner.
>reading this thread and constantly seeing other black people disown other blacks for being darker
Why am I not fucking surprised, it's like middle/high school all over again.
>always get shit on for being incredibly black in school because I was from Africa by all the other black kids

And Black americans wonder why nobody likes them.
>>78370987
It exists in a bunch of cultures. Japan considers snow white skin to be the pinnacle of beauty. Paleness has just always been considered a sign of nobility, and europeans lucked out by getting it as a racial trait

Lacienega was openly a bitch, which is a shame, because her parents were p. cool.

It's a symbol of relative wealth (don't have to work outside = paler) that snowballed into a multicultural shitstorm when people realized that humans come in a multitude of skin colors.
The only light skin/dark skin phenomenon that's been biologically proven is that guys prefer women who are lighter than themselves. But this doesn't mean everyone wants a white woman; just lighter than whatever the guy happens to be. And it's only statistically-likely, not a certitude.

>That episode where they made the fat one pretty.

disdain for darker skin is not as common as desire for lighter skin. Where is does occur, the main reason is because darker isn't the ideal (lighter skin). It implies inferiority simply by being.

In fact, their entire family was blue.
Who knew ashiness was genetic.

It's cute that white people think we're that adorable.
We call them Bush Niggas.
There was this one dude I went to highschool with that everyone would fuck with and call Shadow Nigga.
Why was he blue?

dry dead skin which is light gray contrasts with brown skin. In the show they said they were ashy and did not use lotion.

The Lilo & Stitch crossovers proved that The Proud Family and Kim Possible are in the same universe, so... same reason Dr. Drakken is blue?

Bullshit. Dominicans especially are mostly black as fuck, either that or moorish or middle eastern. Honestly I'm black and whenever I speak spanish I'm instantly labelled Dominican. Puerto Ricans on the other hand tend to look more white
>>78403429
that's sort of his point, Domincans and Puerto Ricans are mutty as fuck just like South African Coloureds.

Because Chris Rock did an act once in the 90's about "nigger" only applying to the "bad ones" and racists who liked using the word saw that as permission. Years later he ended up regretting that routine because at the time he never expected people to abuse it.
Imagine being offended by a word
