Why do black people use the word "they" instead of "their"? Is this a counter-culture thing or do they not know how to speak English?

Its the way poor niggers speak.

If they spoke English properly, that would be "talking/acting white" which is not ok for poor niggers.


A middle class black man is going to talk like a normal person, i.e "talking white"

A destitute nigger from the hood is going to talk like a retard.


Also what's it wit the blacks having southern accents everywhere?

Niggers lack the complex musculature and fine motor control in their mouths that allow humans to pronounce and manipulate "hard" syllables.

Their thick lips and large tongues also make it difficult for them to reproduce sounds that involve "whistle-y" tongue-on-the-roof-of-the-mouth and pursed lips, such as a the "S" sound. (Which is why a nigger cannot pronounce the word "ask." It becomes "axe.")

They're animals trying to reproduce a language through mimicry. They do surprisingly well, but can't reproduce all sounds perfectly.

they also say "they is dumb"
or "I ain't Finna do it", I think Finna is like GONNA

finna = fitting to. That's southern US slang. They can't even get that right.

I don't think it's fair to the word 'learning' to put it in the same sentence as 'niggers,' but even so:

>>74653756

Most ebonics comes from southern slang though.. Finna is an example, as well as 'axe you a question...'

When you're black it's "cool" to be many things.

It's cool to wear some 2nd hand jeans that don't even fit you.

It's cool to be illiterate.

It's cool to be a petty thief.

It's cool to be an unfit, lanky/megafat, malnourished, kfc-eating chimp.

And not only is it very cool, it's in fact part of their culture.

Because telling a nigger that he's acting like a nigger is raycis.

What does common core have to do with teachers being at a knowledge level below their students

Honestly maybe I'm just being contrarian, but from what I've seen of the criticism of the mathematics curriculum in common core it seems to be mostly ignorant shits missing the point. Like that picture of some engineer who's studied "advanced maths" such as differential equations critizising his son's teacher for trying to confer a spatial understanding of the number line instead of just teaching a simple black box algoritm for subtraction. Not that I have that much knowledge of common core, though.

Right, but the problem with CC is that the tools they use to introduce math concepts don't scale into advanced concepts. All of the procedures you learn for arithmetic (long division, double-digit multiplication, etc.) work from fundamental identities of a number system. It doesn't matter what the base is, where you put each place, etc., you can always use the same tools to do arithmetic, *once you understand how they work*. By contrast, CC teaches shortcuts that you would typically learn on your own once you understand how number operations work. It's like teaching kids to say the word "cat" without showing them that hard "c" + short "at" = "cat". They can say "cat" just fine but they can't extrapolate what they learned to figure out "sat" or other words. It's just cheap tricks to boost short-term test performance at the expense of long-term development.
>>
>>74652954
The African mind is not able to hold many words long-term memory as vocabulary. So in this case blacks have taken one word and they use it for different things.

They are the ones.
That is they [their] house.
They [They're] going to the store.

By combining words, it helps to keep the black mind from becoming overcrowded with too many words.
>>
>>74653235
Correct.
>they is going to the store
>they be going to the store
>they are going to the store
All three sentences are identical linguistically, and it is a plain fact that "proper" English (#3) is completely arbitrary.

The other side of that coin, however, is that speaking "properly" is objectively easier to understand. The same way Queen's English can be perfectly understood by anyone who speaks English, the "accent-less" American accent (Midwest, California, etc.) is also easiest to understand.

Ebonics can claim to be "correct" in its own way all it wants, but it's the American version of cockney. It makes you sound dumb and harder to understand, plain and simple.
