Maybe you should ask the people you’re talking about how they feel because remember they are the ones providing the content. When talking about Shamar you stop at him selling plates but you didn’t say anything about what else he said, with that being said they are making the beds they are laying in sometimes it’s not about colorism being fat or anything that deep sometimes it’s just bullsh**t. But go off girlfriend

[@material-cheshirekhatter2413]

its not a mystery, what happened with tiktok is what happens to all social media, its made for teenagers and when teens join the app adults regard it as stupid, then it becomes popular and some adults join and make fun of the kids for being there, then the company expands and starts to neglect the initial fanbase which leads it to change the app to be more accessible to everyone not just teens, which makes it free for adults to bring their adult problems to the app, the app gets monetized and BOOM you have another toxic social media space😁

As a person who has cerebral palsy I appreciate this video we also aren’t seen as human and wanting love and wanting a family and people not respecting that you have become someone’s parent or in love with your partner and pregnant as an example of people trying to oppress you and your wishes and desires and dreams and is literally the practice of eugenics of who can have a baby and family and who would be heavily questioned and bullied if they had one.

"IN A MOCKING TONE" I said to my cousin let's go have fun and she said u mean go out to eat I said yes and yes "OUR BACKS WILL BE BIG AFTER WE DONE" and she said that's ignorant and I didn't get it until I realized I didn't even have to say that I could've just said "We Gonna eat good".

Is big back always derogatory? In southern Latino community I thought it just means u like food no? 😂

its not derogatory because it was never that, im not saying it can't be used to make fun of people but the term was always a joke for anyone who eats a lot, its synonymous with "Greedy", i hate that it spread so fast on the internet before anyone could clarify it.

[@jaccl4539]

This is a perfect example of being thin-skinned and trying to turn everyone into a victim. Trying to skirt around the concept is not helping anyone. It's not a higher plane of thinking or your being a bigger person; it's simply an established phrase. It's like saying someone is obese is mean; it's irrelevant because it's true, and, furthermore, most Americans are that way. Stop hiding from the issues. There is nothing there to respect or be better about.

[@MeeYeeWeeWee]

​@material-cheshirekhatter2413 yeah it's basically another way of saying "If I eat a bunch of this unhealthy food I'm going to get fat". Calling someone fat is rude but calling yourself fat and just exaggerating as a light joke is no big deal to me

This typically happens to individuals who need help but they’re being exploited for laughs and views.

[@MusicandDancing4Ever]

Some people hating cause they feel if you don’t look good, you shouldn’t go viral, or get social media fame. Some people think their better looking then her and should have attained social media fame not her. Black people really showing their true colors, colorism, phobia, etc. no one is flawless. We all got a Charles or Mrs. Netta in our family. Even a 10 got flaws. Rihanna is beautiful but got a big forehead, still pretty tho. Also people like something different, netta and Charles are different, different has always been entertaining. But when Mrs. Netta go out and gets slayed by makeup artists, made up, she looks nice like most celebrities, if you see most celebrities without makeup, they look average, normal. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I don’t find them ugly, not the most beautiful, but I’ve seen worse. Also, people expect Mrs. Netta to go hide and she’s not, she seems comfortable in her own skin but people trying to break her down.

I wonder why we are so concerned with what other people desire why not focus on reinforcing self love. We can’t change what people find attractive/unattractive but we can control how we feel about ourselves.

[@CulturalMisfitt]

@@NTY12 I think self love is critical. But learning self love in a system of power imbalances and hierarchy, certainly requires a deeper level of understanding optics and desirability. Humans need validation and to feel like they belong (desired). And if those systems exists that prescribe certain folks should be treated less than or given less access to basic needs that are necessary for a thriving life, self love without having a critical understand of desirability politics will prove to be a difficult feat. And it may be nearly impossible for many people due to the psychological toll it takes.

@@CulturalMisfitt I understand that. I think a lot of us may have subconscious preferences for whats “desirable” and it creates inner turmoil, that has to be addressed before attempting to change things outside of ourselves. Like do we believe those negative associations and thats why its so painful to some of us?

"Big back" is getting sooooo old, like it's just straight up mean, and it always seems to be straight sized ppl using that word smdh.

[@material-cheshirekhatter2413]

because the term refers to anyone thats greedy, it was never about making fun of fat people which is why you see skinny people calling themselves that.

So Im a black transgender woman transitioned ten years ago and when I say this I mean it, I learn so much from you, you challenge so many notions that I have and help me see the world in a more thoughtful and accountable way, I really enjoy your content thank you

[@adriennef4637]

Thank you SO much for covering this! It's something that's been hurting my heart so much and I was beginning to think I was alone. As a southern woman I love watching Miss Netta fixing her mans plate. I miss being able to do that for my husband who passed. It's a love language❤

This is so true . everything you spoke about ..from Ms netta to the narratives of people they find no issue with. The world is shifting to a different space ..and it doesn't look good.

[@XOXODANiE]

I feel this way about how they exploit that girl Dynasty. I recently saw a video of her having a medical issue. Why would anyone decide to record and upload that? It's very sad.

[@pitbullqueen07]

You 100% hit the nail on the head. I also create content (mainly for TT) and I spoke on people giving bad influencers a platform. And that based on how you look determines your value in society. If you’re attractive but boring or problematic you can still have an opportunity for success or if you’re considered unattractive based on societal standards you have to be funny/chaotic/self deprecating. If you’re average and have a calm personality you basically don’t exist. And yes it does affect the outside world. As a dark skin, plus size, tall woman I have always been the “ugly” friend regardless of who I’m with. Doesn’t matter if I’m kind or intelligent the person who looks “better” gets attention even if I know they are a toxic person. I don’t know I find taking the time to write insults in people’s comments such a weird thing to do. And I admit sometimes the comments can be funny but overall still so strange.

[@blissfully_mimi428]

I am so grateful for you and your content Justin. You are bringing awareness to important issues that many wouldn’t dare touch on out of fear. I love how you tackle these issues without fear. You brilliantly break down what is going on so that we can absorb the full picture. Thank you ❤

Can you please do a deep dive on the Apple Store girl?

Can we talk about how exploited Jaguar Wright is? Pisses me off how they use her for views.

[@Perfect_Peace3]

I always enjoyed Ms Netta your lunch is ready videos. I don’t like how people hyped them up just to tear them apart. Ms Netta be on the internet arguing for her life b/c people pick with everything she does! Like ok her purse is fake, hell mine is too! If she was visually aesthetically pleasing to certain people standards they wouldn’t do her like that

[@nanieecampbell2833]

I love these type of conversation videos we need more of these type of conversations going on. I am here for it and support you 🙏🏿💜

I think Mrs. Netta is beautiful. She has kind eyes and a soothing voice.

[@ShanelChelzz]

Are we not watching the same videos of Ma. betta she diss women like a lot Edit:: lovely commentary ❤ new subbie

[@Iphideen]

Im not on tiktok much so I haven't watched any of Ms. Netta's content. But I am on twitter and people have brought her content there so I know of her. Apprently there was some kind of blowup on tiktok yesterday because Ms. Netta made criticisms of Black women. Saw the comments on twitter and the immediate reasponse was to misgender Ms.Netta, call her ugly, and talk about her skin. Rather than just talking about the problematic things Ms. Netta said about Black women.

[@lashundrashinell]

I don’t understand how this is not seen as a human trait. We all look for attractiveness whether we’re aware or not. Attractiveness lets us know the health or well-being of another individual. Blemishes, bumps, bruises, body type, size, all of it matters. I don’t think we get to disregard a person’s physical appearance. We should definitely try harder to not take away someone’s humanity because if it. But manipulating one’s own appearance is as old as human beings are.

[@latoshiaguffin6594]

It’s 2024 why are people so concerned with who a person bring into their bedroom!!! I don’t care!!! I have plenty of friends from all walks of life!!! They are the best friends I ever had!!!!

Justin, I love you. I pray for your mental health. I can definitely tell this particular topic is tiresome and draining for you at times but KEEP GOING KEEP GOING KEEP GOING ❤❤❤❤ I remember the very first video I saw of yours maybe what 6-7 yrs ago…it helped changed my perspective. So imagine the ppl who are new to watching you and this being their 1st, or 2nd video. It is impactful. And at least we (your subscribers) are taking the needed notes. V neck on or notttt ❤❤❤

[@tamiaaddison3339]

Definitely opened my mind with this never looked at it this way

[@Nbayoungguh]

And lets talk about how society and social media let who ever benefit "pretty pretty" get away things that some who are deemed "less attractive". They call miss netta rude and nasty for responding to hate comments..but if it was a person like Ari fletcher mf would have that energy for her.

[@tracienotstacie7577]

Heres the thing with Shemar, People are willing to exploit him, and his sister is his payee for his disability benefits. The people use him for clicks and views and then discard him. They are just as guilty as his sister, who is not doing right by him. For Miss Netta, she plays into the stigma people put on her. As a plus size woman, I have experienced anti-fatness but when people play into it on Tik Tok it doesn't help as well for example when I see a plus size person making a view eating without using the best table manners and playing into the sterotype that plus size people are nasty and unkept and sit around eating junk and large amounts of food. When a more thinner woman says "I'm happy being single without a man" it's empathized and if a plus size woman says it it and here are the comments about because weight and they put the jacket of low self esteem on them. It's a sad double standard, but honestly, I think it's about knowing who are within yourself. The world will always have their standard, and you live by yours. My aunt had a saying, "It doesn't matter if you are a brick house or brick building. Someone is going to want your real estate!"💓

[@justcallmebetty7717]

It's been my observation with Shamar that as soon as housing is provided to him he abuses it because he continuously wants to live beyond his means, and treat people like shit! then he comes back crying and saying he's homeless and hungry and in need of a specific I phone. He needs a REAL caretaker that will monitor him and his spending. Now with Miss Netta( who i like) needs to get off of social media because she is not made for this, her skin is not thick enough and she can't NOT respond to the trolls. i would love to see her go back to to her happy smiling self who was just happy being herself and feeding her man.
