I have to add on 1: De Beauvoir used to set her students up with Sartre.
Second best girlfriend of all time (after Ghislaine).
Why is "woke" culture so unpopular in France?
-
I already addressed this.
You can't be serious in thinking that I said that.
What I am serious about is the history of a certain prison organization, full of white people.
I'm also serious about "rock and roll," which you ignored.
And, I'm serious about how you keep trying to obfuscate what counts as white people using black slang.
You're still going in circles.
"Slang" are words used outside of their traditional context.
If the origin of the word precludes it from being slang then there can't be any slang, especially any African-American slang.
Keep going in circles, if you want.
So, all of those white people who use the words "rock" and "rock and roll" are unbalanced?
As are all of the white guys who call each other "brother?"
No well-balanced adult pays any attention to blk slang. Using it is equivalent to soccer moms emulating middle school speech patterns.
Those are English words, genius. My ancestors were using them when teh bl.x were still swinging from trees.
You actually believe no wht man ever called another brother until the blx came up with the idea? Surely you can?t be serious?
The term rock and roll does not originate with blx any more than calling people brother does. Both of your examples fail. Try again. -
I know about American English, and my examples are great.
You can keep going in circles, repeating variations of points that I already addressed.
I get it. It's a nice way for someone like you to try to save face.
Circles and circles ans circles.
Oh, the top-posting genius already addressed it, did she? How convenient.
Still embara/s/s\ed about your two examples being so wrong? You know nothing about American English, sure, but that is only sad if you're not American. -

Some adults are, well, you know, black. They are aware of in-group slang.Sure, but the number of hi I Q blx is quite small (small population; low median I Q). Odds that one shows up in my life is slim, even on campus. At my school I can name two highly intelligent blx. And they both work in IT, not as profs.

Whatever will I do!?!?!

It's amazing how each of your attempts to be clever only serve to make you look unintelligent and feeble.
You'd think that at least one of them wouldn't do it, but you've been very consistent.

This question and the quora responses are completely ignorant. Spend any time consuming French media and you will quickly see that they openly discuss gender and race like sociologists in the US do. They are having similar debates among academics about whether this is acceptable. It is wrong to claim that the French reject these discourses out of hand.
I spent two years living in Paris and can confirm you are entirely wrong about this. Anyone who "discusses gender and race like sociologists in the US do" is considered shallow, eccentric, and low-brow in France, and in any political activism context they would be portrayed as just regurgitating Americanism. American corporate wokespeak was basically created by the Ford and Rockefeller foundations in the 1970s and is pretty diametrically opposed to all authentic 20th century liberation movements outside the US.

Spend any time consuming French media and you can see that as of summer 2022, "woke" issues are most commonly described as a new ideological imposition imported from the United States of America:

2. French have better taste, much of this woke stuff is just plain repulsive aesthetically.
If Americans had any taste, the image of Lia Thomas towering over two puny girls at the podium would have been the end of the trance movement. It’s reassuring to know from OP that the French reacted differently to a similar spectacle in their country.

Sounds very neoliberal.
