    you seriously think there’s no difference between Black Americans using this term since the 70’s and white kids on TikTok appropriating language?

      A late response, but no. Since both Gen Z and Black Americans live in the same nation, and share a culture, I don’t see why I should differentiate between them.

      I bet Kai Cenat popularized it, as well as “rizz”, “fanum tax” and “gyat”. If you don’t like it, take it up with Mr Cenat.
