I Will Never Forgive Y'all For How Y'all Mistreated Jussie Smollett
Blavity ^ | Nov 1, 2021 | Kenny Williams Jr.

On Jan. 29, 2019, the world got a first-hand glimpse into just how devastating the effects of cancel culture can be and its glaring hypocrisy for Black, queer people. On this day, Jussie Smollett, award-winning actor and former star of Empire reported his assault to the Chicago police, citing racist and homophobic slurs being hurled at him while being physically beaten.

Prior to this incident, Smollett, an openly queer and Black man, would captivate audiences week after week in his role as fictional musical legend Jamal Lyon on Empire. Slowly making his rounds to becoming a legend in his own right via his promising music career, Smollett quickly found himself on the other side of public scrutiny. His swift transition from America’s golden boy to alleged criminal mastermind gave the country a masterclass on cancel culture and its brutal take on the Black queer community.

Smollett would soon face allegations of orchestrating a hate crime for attention which led to him being charged with 16 felony counts including filing a false police report.....

As this case continues to unfold two years later, the latest update finds the actor’s request to have the case dismissed due to his cooperation in paying the $10,000 bond and completion of community service hours. While it is unclear what exactly happened and whether he is (or isn’t) telling the truth, one must acknowledge the painstaking reality of it all.

Seems the author's main point is that the truth doesn't matter, Smollett must be idolized because he's a black queer. His personal destruction and impact on race relations has no bearing.

Y’all might be the most overused contraction in American history.

True, but it got much worse once the FDA discovered it.

y’all

The only way to address two or more people. Y’all sounds a heck of a lot better than youse guys and is more efficient as well. Only say it if you’re from the south unless you want to get laughed at because yankees don’t know how to pronounce it right. Ya’ll is spelled incorrectly and “all y’all” is perfectly legitimate. Never use y’all to refer to one person—it makes things really confusing.

“He was fixing to teach y’all a lesson.”
“I was wondering what all y’all had in mind.”

"the Black queer community."

To risk sounding racist and homophobic, what a pathetic bunch of wannabe victims. If you're listening, you have each other, you don't need me. And you don't need me to be your villain, so take that finger and put it somewhere else.

Yall usually gets the apostrophe in regions farther north than here. It is not properly a contraction at all but one stand-alone word.

Yall is certainly more euphonic than ‘youse guys’ or ‘youz.’ For the superplural it’s allayall.

That’s exactly the point. Cede this and we’re done — the left intends to excuse everything up to and including genocide by placing a victim label of some sort on their adherents and setting them loose on everyone else.

“...the actor’s request to have the case dismissed due to his cooperation in paying the $10,000 bond and completion of community service hours.”

That’s not much penalty for 16 felonies.
