Why are black American families so broken, dysfunctional, and toxic?

[Winston]

I have a question. I've been talking to a black American woman I met on YouTube who loves my videos. She told me that her family is unloving, dysfunctional and broken, and that she has no contact with her mom and her dad left her family long ago. Are most black American families like this? If so why are they so broken, dysfunctional, and toxic? What causes this? Are the black families in Africa like that too? What do you think @Cornfed?

Anyway there's this movie on YouTube from 1972 about the toxicity of black American families. See below.

Black Girl (1972)



"Black Girl is an American family drama film directed by Ossie Davis based on a play written by J.E. Franklin.[1] The film explores issues and experiences of black womanhood in the 1970s, including how black women were depicted and common stereotypes of the period. According to Melvin Donalson in Black Directors in Hollywood, "Black Girl is a film that explores the intricate and sometimes painful connections between mothers and daughters. Shared for historical purposes. I do not own the rights."

Blacks are r-selected animals that were never meant to live in families as humans conceive the term. The policies of evil Western regimes have destroyed the family structures they had, but it didn't take much.

It honestly depends, I get along with all my relatives it's just that I don't get to talk to them or see them much anymore ever since everyone had kids and stuff I just felt like an after thought. In the 90s and early 2000s I felt much closer to everyone not just my mom and my brother but all my relatives that lived here in CA...But as everyone got older, had kids, moved out of their parents house and all that....I feel disconnected with every single one of them except for my mom and brother who I feel are the only ones left in my life including my grandmother. So I wouldn't say we are a dysfunctional family, but the sad part is that black families are notorious for refusing to help each other during times of struggle.

They are selfish as shit. My mom and brother aren't like this but my aunt is, and some of my cousins are also like this too. That's one of the reason my mom can't even stand blacks desptie being black herself. They are anti-family in every sense of the way because they simply refuse to help another family member. The whole race is like that. I remember my aunts car broke down in the middle of nowhere, and blacks just ignored her and her daughter. Not a single one of them stopped to help. But a group of white guys pulled over and helped them get their car fixed so they wouldn't be stuck. And it wasn't just black men ignoring to help them, it was black women too. All they needed was a jump but the nigs outright drove right by like they were invincible because they are selfish assholes.

They are selfish as shit.

This is happening to me right now. Something seriously violent happened recently in front of my residence in Skid Row, so I emailed four of my family members, requesting for them to help me by allowing me to stay at their place (all of whom have houses in decent neighborhoods). They all responded, but are trying to "help" me without welcoming me into their home. They are trying to direct me to government resources, etc. My life is in danger.
This is a serious situation, but yet they are acting like it's not. They are trying to rationalize the situation in whatever ways so that they will convince themselves that it's not serious enough. It's mind-blowing how selfish FAMILY can be. I assumed they would help me eagerly upon any desperate cry for help, but no; that's not reality. The reality is that your family doesn't care about you, unless it benefits them. They don't care if you are living in a dangerous ghetto. Only if you were to pay them (upfront) would they consider it, or, if you were a young female or child, they could feel proud of protecting a young person, and could feel the gratification of having society appreciate it (a raise in social status).

I think black people are dysfunctional because:

They live in government-subsidized housing, so they are already around other poor/dysfunctional people. In the housing (the "projects" or whatever), people sell drugs, commit prostitution, there is weed smoke in the hallway, there is no toilet paper, nor soap, nor paper towels in the restrooms because people steal it, etc. Homeless people come into the building to sleep in the stairwell, kitchen, etc. People are mentally ill, so crazy, stressful things happen, and it wears on you over time. When something frightening happens, it makes you want to move out, but you don't want someone to cause you to feel threatened, so you fantasize about getting revenge, and marking your territory.

They have other extended family who live in the same building, so it's psychologically harder to move out and away to a completely different place.

They believe that doing drugs and drinking alcohol is what the cool people do, and that doing so is how to "live life" due to the mainsteam media promoting such a lifestyle (e.g. Snoop Dogg saying "Smoke weed every day.") and with similar lyrics in other rap/hiphop songs.

They were probably born into a family with no father in the home, so they were raised dysfunctionally. Fathers have the ability to potentially preserve their daughter's virginity for a high-quality man, and prepare their son to compete in the market economy (mothers usually do not possess the passion and focus required for this), etc.

Sadly, I think it does somewhat have to do with the African brain they were born with, which is more focused on the here-and-now than the "What could be?" or "What should be?", so a dysproportionately high percentage of them compared with other races lack discipline for education and creating a better life for themselves. Think of a black person who steals alcohol vs. the Asian M.D. working around the corner at the medical clinic getting paid to sell ("prescribe") drugs--both in Skid Row.

There are evil rich people who pay evil politicians to make evil decisions which destroy the counties that black people live in. These sociopathic people get joy out of harming society. For example, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Detroit. In these areas, the laws are not enforced, or the penalties for breaking them are relaxed, so criminals (dysproportionately black people) keep committing crimes and their behavior is not corrected. These evil rich people's efforts to destroy white communities don't work as often because the white brain is much more free-thinking and education-oriented and focused on the future (disciplined) than the black brain (on average).

White people can cooperate better than black people. Black people are not serious about following laws and living up to religious principles, etc. so act more recklessly (they don't think about future negative consequences) and are more susceptible to influences upon their emotions.

Black people have higher highs and lower lows (black people express their joy more audibly and loudly, and are 20 times more likely to be convicted of a violent crime than white men).

So, in white communities, everything is orderly and clean because the people want that and value that. They actually are able to focus on solving problems, and see the connection between cause and effect. They have a passion for design and engineering and building a better future. Black people do not because their brain cannot study and focus on small details. They have a shorter attention span and are emotional, rather than quiet and focused. They are susceptible to being programmed by the mainstream media, or other negative influences, because they lack the discipline to study how things work.
