Hopefully this gets more attention because it's pretty spot on. In my space, I know a lotta dudes, especially hood dudes who are usually up to no good, that vote/support trump mostly for his machismo BS. Usually they don't have any educated legitimate reason, and instead go for the hes a billionaire, business man, contrarian, he says what he wants, hes "not part of the system", just base dumbassness. A high-level hood dude who they emulate on this is unfortunately 50 Cent. Which... yea, 50 can do/say what he wants, it wont affect him at all. The rare highly educated blacks I know personally that support him, are unfortunately the smart, successful but deep down mysogenistic, borderline self-hating Uncle Ruckus types who have scraped and scrimped to build a better life and feel the need to align with thee deepest of Conservative ideals, even though they're not really wanted in that room. It's a weird bunch.

This. I've been trying to find the words but this is spot on. It usually is the guys on social media who always take the unpopular opinion and will choose to die on that hill no matter what facts are presented. They heavily believe in conspiracies and get their jollies off by making posts of any dramatic event. These guys find a good conspiracy video on tik Tok and run with it because they are reliably against the status quo.

That is a great term, “reliable contrarians”. I love that.

I said in another thread here, we all know that one person, both in and out of our circle where we always have to ask, “What the fuck is your problem??”
