Nick Cannon states that melanin confers compassion, and that White People are savages and closer to animals due to their lack of it. Thoughts?

[MCheetah]

Yeah, I remember this story. The thing is, Nick Cannon has literally always been an idiot. At least he used to be a FUN idiot before he got brainwashed by Black Lives Matter. I don't know what it is about the most privileged and powerful someone is, the more "oppressed" they feel. Aside from the useful, low-education working class people who join BLM because they're not smart or independent enough to know better, woke people generally tend to be upper middle class first-worlders and young Millennials and Zoomers who have NEVER experienced actual oppression, racism, sexism, or discrimination in their life.

I'm 34, grew up DIRT-F*CKING-POOR (like, on "EBT assistance for seven years" poor) in one of the grimiest parts of West Philly and experienced actual racism in my life enough times to count on one hand. You see, here's the thing... When you're actually not privileged and pampered, you have REAL problems to worry about, not manufactured, made-up ones to make you feel less mediocre and unimportant than you really are. Stuff like rent, choosing between paying the rent on time or having foo that month, taking care of kids (not that I have any), trying to survive, This is my my hypothesis on why wokeness only targets the richest and most privileged classes of people, aside from the poor ones who just want an easy excuse for why their life sucks, but their friends', who went to college and hustled for several years to make it out of the hood, lives doesn't suck.

In short, wokeness is for losers who can't admit they suck and are too lazy to hustle their asses upwards in life. It doesn't surprise me Mariah's bitch would be woke.

[hellionthesagereborn]

Yeah, I heard this converstation awhile ago. He said it because he is racist but also moronically stupid on multiple levels. Ignoring the fact that melanin doesn't do anything more then provide protection against high energy waves i. e. UV light, its moronically stupid because blacks are 13% of the population but are responsible for over half of all crime, half of all murders, half of all robberies etc. So even ignoring the fact that he has no idea how melanin works, the group that is most compassionate if we look at history and statistics is in fact whites, not blacks. But what do you expect from some one like him?

[NamerOfStars]

I'd introduce him to black-on-black crime statistics. And the level of community support, too- the way that other ethnic enclaves group together and support one another's businesses, and give their residential areas an economic support base to thrive from. Remember that hit song by the Korean rapper about how he fantasized about burning down black-owned stores? And how the backlash from the Korean expat community against promoting that kind of violence wrecked his career- oh, wait. Never mind.

I think he's so immersed in his own ideology he can't even do bigotry well. There's a hell of a lot to criticize about black people were treated in this country, and a surprising amount about how they still are- but being a victim doesn't automatically make you a better person. Sometimes I think I'm the only American under the age of 40 who understands that.

[BedheadGreg]

I'm not white nor do I like to argue for you guys but nick cannon is incorrect.

A White man or woman had handed everything to nick cannon.

If he wanna argue the black jew vs the white jew that an argument I don't know about. Not the Jewish community predatory ways on black people he'd have an argument.

Ever wonder why the smart or goodwill black people say white people treated me better than blacks. How could they do that if they are not compassionate?

Were the white people you hired nick cannon less compassionate?

If you wanna make an argument you can say the darker tone people have less compassionate because you are closer to darkness and evil that's shy you have black on black crime and even in Africa SARS.

You judge people based on their actions not their skin tone. Idiot.

This is a white liberal thing. Yes white people has done some evil things to black people. But they also DONE a lot For Black people

[Massageman]

Since you are into physics - - - - - - He needs to take a chill pill - - - -
AND read his 5th grade science book.

White is produced when all colors of the visible spectrum are combined. These colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. They are the colors of the rainbow and can be easily remembered by the mnemonic ROY G BIV.

The correspondence of a color to a specific wavelength is called spectral color. White and black are excluded from this definition because they do not have specific wavelengths. White is not defined as a color because it is the sum of all possible colors. Black is not defined as a color because it is the absence of light, and therefore color.

[Jack9949]

That’s completely false. Matter of fact that’s quite easy to debunk. Black people are 14% of the US population. And yet they still commit a 52% majority of homicides. Aren’t I within my right to be more scared of them? Anyways wasn’t it also white people who adopted ethics codes first? Weren’t we the last ones to practice slavery and the first to end it? Weren’t we the first culture to establish the very idea of civilization? A lot of colonists were terrified by what they saw in Africa. With all the cannibalists and human sacrifices. We civilized entire cultures of people.

#WhiteLivesMatter

[MecheD]

I respect all opinions here, and this truly is a depiction of racism. I stand simply with him until forgiveness is given. What was said simply is the feeling of a lot of African Americans “ not all that is said is pin point” fact is color is only an issue because unjust/unfair/unruly things happen to those of melanin in an abundance.
Just for the record the only reason a lot of people stand behind him is not completely on the stance, but because any average African American is tired of talking for no reason. So a man of his “celebrity “ to come to the level of human when he has a lot to lose is commendable. The stance for humanity is at stake. Thank you all.

[SomeBlondeChick]

"Nick Cannon states that melanin confers compassion"

Uh-huh well I think Nickie boy should go visit a woman's shelter. Learn a thing or two about being a real man before he yips like a dog. I volunteer at one (two actually). A lot of women hiding from their "compassionate" (black) boyfriends, black women & others alike, in such places.

[JackSmy]

Sounds like RACISM to me!! Yeah, you CAN be 'RACIST' against 'whites' or those, lacking melanin!!
Kind of messed up, and just making the racial issue worse, saying things like that!
Posting SHIT like that just erodes support, for BLM, and Equality

[IAMNathanael]

Oh, I've heard this before and I regret that you made me remember. That's a stupid comment. Go listen to Layne Stanley's singing and you'll see just how wrong Nick Cannon is.

https://youtu.be/V5Ok7_KFuZw

[Astarlessnightsky]

Just from a medical biologicsl standpoint, this seems really far fetched. Melanin only is responsinle for skin tone, with darker skin blocking more UV rays than lighter skin, to prevent skin damage when living with more intense sun light.

Compassion and other behaviours and feelings are influencend by the brain. And there is no direct connection to melanin and the brain.

[Not_Average]

What a racist thing to say lmao. Wild how this is being socially accepted. I'd love to lay him out. My mom would slap me for talking about another race like that. I think the dude is bitter because Eminem fucked his his girl years back ahahah. Do we all remember this kill shot?https://www.youtube.com/embed/ro-NdIc0u3w

[White_King2000]

Didn't watch but its likely he's trying to boost his career by being controversial. Like apart from marrying Mariah Carrey who the hell is Nick Cannon? As far as I remember this was the guy claiming lighter skinned black women were hotter than dark skinned ones so...

[DJB72]

I had to Google him to find out who this racist jerk is. So an insignificant racist spouts a debunked pseudoscience theory. Imagine how much coverage it would get if an equally insignificant white "comedian" had said the equivalent about Blacks.

How very hypocritical.

[Don-__-Don]

This is a case on where I hope not a lot of people feed into what another person's says. He's entitled to his opnion, and my opnion of his opinion is that I think everything he said about that is a load of bullshit.

Knowing that he's famous and he can actually influence people while he's saying things like that is troublesome.

[SuccessfulHornDog]

Nick is kind of a simpleton. He follows guys that are like Malcom X or Elijah Mohammed. They preach shit like this. It makes poor black folk feel better about their situation, I guess. But Nick has been treated very well by many white and jewish savages so he should have the ability to realize how stupid the stuff he is spewing really is,

[Anonymous]

What's interesting to me is that this happened months ago and yet most of us know nothing about it. If a white celeb had said the same thing about blacks it would have been national news and he would have been cruised and his career destroyed long ago per the usual liberal cancel process.

[John_Galt]

It would be to easy to point out how racist that is... so let’s just stick with how inaccurate that is, based on evolutionary biology!!!

“Martin Luther King jr. Is rolling over in his grave somewhere”!!!
#content of their character

[SofLof]

I've never been a huge fan but when this happened he became evil to my eyes. He's a huge racist

[BeMuse]

Spewing that racism makes him sound so compassionate. lol what a moron. Someone should hang him from a lamp post.

[israelisevil]

Its why we won the racewar so yk idc we won. Slavery is through private prisons now so unfortunately us whites are enslaved too now.

[Anonymous]

That guy is racist as fuck.
It's disgusting if he still has a tv show.
I guess cancel culture only applies to racist white people.
He should be fired.

[SomeGuyCalledTom]

Nick Cannon is a racist and a black supremacist, nothing he says is relevant to any serious conversation about race.

[MannMitAntworten]

He is being inflamitory because he knows with his audience he can get away with being full of shit and that no one would dare point out the stark contrast to his rhetoric.

[loveslongnails]

WHO is Nick Cannon, and why does he matter? Seriously, I never heard of him. Doesn't sound very bright though.

[josephinelcajon]

There are several people like Opera and Samuel and many others that are racist supremacy activist's

[Bananaman177]

He wouldn't have a career unless there was a video somewhere of him molesting children.

[TadCurious]

Well Nick Cannon is wrong about that. But really I couldn't give a rat's ass what he thinks.

[Avicenna]

Well, he got away with anti-Semitic comments so now he feels invincible

[Jackblue]

Yes, and he kept his job as chairman at Teenick, imagine if he had been a white guy saying that about black people.

[UrBrotherCain]

the only way you can make the killing of your own kind moral and ethic is if you turn them into beasts---do not be surprised when they bare fangs and hunt in packs

[cth96190]

That is anti-white hate.
The evidence shows that the opposite is true.

[TheDomimantOne]

That's the pot calling the kettle black! Before it was the whites that were racists, now it's the blacks! GMAFB!

[Anonymous]

It's just more afro-centric "we was kangz" bullshit.

[Anonymous]

Unless he owned a plantation a couple of hundred years ago, not sure the comments as you are reporting them make any sense.

[Wise4myage]

I think he just proved how stupid and ignorant he is to make such a comment.

[Dweezil]

And who said black people can't be racist.

Or is he just an attention seeker?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Nick can't possibly be this stupid. He most likely was high on weed.

[Anonymous]

You've gotta be kidding me? Whites are the only race taking in Arabs and Latinos. Only ones who wants to give black reparations. Only race who cares more about others than themselves.

I think Nick smoked too muck crack.

[Rangers]

That must be why people like him are killing eachother on a daily basis for the smallest things

[Uannoyme]

The word asshat comes to mind.

[Anonymous]

In the words of Aerosmith's livin on the edge "If you can judge a wise man by the color of his skin, mister your a better man than I".

[Zodiac10]

I didn't know he was a dermatologist, or a credible scientist. Thats cool.

[IlluminatiExposed0]

That's literally the dumbest thing I ever heard. And let's not start talking about who are savages.

[Anonymous]

Just another form of racism,
blacks can be just as racist as any other race,
they think they have the monopoly on the 'victim card'.

[msc545]

Nick Cannon has no fucking idea what he is talking about.

[Anonymous]

He's a rapper right? If his statement is true , why are rappers getting shot or killed regularly by their own race over "beef"

[QuietRunner]

sounds racist or like a Nazi race theory.

Maybe I should ask Mariah Carey about that

[Anonymous]

Africa and its people I know are full of compassion.

[lanadelrey25]

Racist.

[Andres77]

Isn't that a racist comment?

[Agape93]

He’s a dipshit lol

[Texaskid1]

White people are made of vanilla.

[LEADFOOTboi]

this sounds absolutely ridiculous...

[tartaarsaus]

That’s ridiculously stupid.

[Marriedwith2]

🤯 fella isn't too bright

[Dchrls78104]

The statement is that of an idiot.

[monkeynutts]

That woman is a mental case.

[darkcloud1945]

ASSHOLE ASSHOLE ASSHOLE

[blondfrog]

Is he a scientist?

[Prettygurl12]

*rolls eyes*

[jimmy2]

That cold... oh my reverse discrimination
