I always figured it was a huge part of it. Hell, I’m just partially Jewish and I still get shit from white nationalist for supposedly ‘taking their women’

    One could argue that it's all of it, one massive exercise in psycho-sexual projection. Shit like this is why I don't get down with porn anymore, especially bbc/cuckold shit, there's a racist angle in there that's aiming to dehumanize black men and play upon the fear of white men.

      I always figured the racist angle was the exact opposite.

      As in, instead of "let's fight against our latent fear of BBCs", it becomes "let's just give into it instead, it feels good, here's your sissy hypno"

        I mean that's in there but like the crux of that kind of porn is stripping a black man down to his penis and painting him as a barbarian that "takes" your woman.

          Yeah. The BBC thing has a really nasty vibe of 19th century skull shape comparison.

          Black men in porn can never just be hot guys doing hot guy stuff, their skin colour has to be made into a fetish and associated with dominant and violent characteristics.

            This is so fucking true, I just wanna watch a guy and a gal enjoy each other's company, but the video is always some "BBC penetrates white woman!!11" and other much more racist nonsense. Black men in porn can never just have big cocks (like everyone else, most porn cocks are huge), they must have big black cocks. It is so insanely racist and is honestly white supremacist propaganda.

            Yeah but again, like I said, there's a form of racism in BBC porn. Hell, black porn performers have talked about the racism they experience on the set.

                I don't think there's anything positive about it. Model minority is a hurtful stereotype like all stereotypes are. In my opinion things like bbc porn aren't about representation of black performers, but rather exploitation. To me it all harkenss back to the mandingo trope which is wildly bad. Like I said, to me it's all about dehumanizing black men to being sex crazed walking penises.

                It's not positive. The scary barbarian part is the important part in many cases.

                    Then it isn't positive discrimination? Like it's not really a "wow black dudes are too cool" thing, it's "black dudes are scary sex animals with big dicks". It's just plain old discrimination.

                      well it's positive in the context of sex.

                      like I said, "positive discrimination" is never positive as a whole.

                      just like the "model minority" is positive in the context of how smart you're perceived (but negative as a whole)

                        Yeah but model minority is that you have a positive attribute compared to others, it's not the same as "scary sex monster". Like perhaps someone wants to be a scary sex monster but it isn't generally considered a good thing.

                          that you have a positive attribute compared to others

                          "big dick fucking machine" is more of a positive attribute in the context of sex.

                            I can see what you're trying to say. But really, there is nothing positive about being a model minority or being a big dick fucking machine in the context of porn when both are anti-black, racist, and sexist in their own unique ways.

                            It's really really negative in the context of being black. This idea comes from a white supremacist concept that black people will come and rape their white women. I think that may take priority over it being seem as a positive attributes for porn.
