Statement: Not once in my entire black ass life have I ever heard another black person say anything “rules” unless they were scripted to do so 🤦🏽‍♀️🙄

*edited to add statement clarification for submission

Agreed. Very Disney channel -esque

"Blacks Rule! Whites Drool!"

u/theindiekitten 16d ago

This is what my perpetually 8-yo self immediately thought.

Whites are from jupiter, they get more stupider.

u/SlylingualPro 18d ago

I've also never heard a black person refer to black people as "blacks".

u/1ustfu1 15d ago

or “blacks,” for that matter 💀

u/therealstabitha 15d ago

That’s the entire point of the use of this meme in OOP’s context. It’s from a news article that shows a weird old white man standing over this, claiming he was targeted by Black people. But it was obvious this weird old white man made it up.

Well, uh, yes. You described the entire implied context of this post 👍🏽

“Blacks” being the dead giveaway (“rules” a very close second) lol Never in my life have I heard a black person refer to other black people as “blacks” lol

Dont think even Kanye has said "Blacks"

u/lmaytulane 17d ago

Or when a person drops THE blacks, like they’re referring to Ohio State

I'm sure their first inclination was to put "the" right before "blacks"

u/thekawaiislarti 18d ago

I remember when that happened. In a "shocking" twist, a white guy did it.

Was he an old guy? "Blacks rule" has distinct old-man-brainstorming-what-a-hep-young-cat-might-say vibes

u/thekawaiislarti 17d ago

In his 80s, iirc

Someone destroyed a Confederate flag, I call this a win

u/thr3atofjoy 17d ago

if this was actually real it would be fire. fuck confederate flags, bro

u/Johnny_Grubbonic 17d ago

It was real.

A white guy did it.

u/DengarLives66 16d ago

That white guy unknowingly had the right idea, minus the attempted framing for vandalism. Fuck that flag.

u/GrilledCheeser 17d ago

Blacks are number one!!! Yeehaww!!

Top notch, buddy!

So wait. Burning a confederate flag was the thing that was supposed to be so bad that it could be used as a false flag!?

Why would I get upset about that?

u/Fluffy_Difference937 16d ago

At first I thought it said "BLUE" and I was very confused.

u/ghastlypxl 15d ago

😂 This is hilarious. Even as a silly Jamaican who says shit like, “Oh golly,” “What in tarnation,” for shits and giggles, I haven’t said something “rules” since I was maybe single digits in white suburbs watching like… Nickelodeon/Disney Channel absorbing Americanisms.

u/Lady-Zafira 15d ago

This reminds me of the white kids that spray painted BLM on their truck and tried to blame Antifa

u/heypresto2k 16d ago

Not from the US but no one says “blacks” wtf

u/mousemarie94 15d ago

I've had my blackness, woman-ness, etc. questioned online. I'd simply fucking perish if someone ever lumped me on the same category as "Blacks Rule" guy
