I was thinking about that term lol. But as someone who lives in a gang riddled neighborhood, with people literally dying in the streets nearly every day due to violence and drug abuse, saying that these cartoon characters represent that feels as if you are appropriating a cultural issue, specifically for me, in the black community, or any other realm of ethnodiverse confrontation. It’s sonething that shouldn’t be put lightly, and just believing one can just simplify something complex and act as one understands, when they clearly do not, is to me what the United States has done for several hundreds of years; emulating and taking advantage of intercultural norms while not supplementing the culture they’re derived from. Such as how black features on women are popularized in media, while actual black citizens are malnourished, unemployed, and live in crime ridden cities in country induced systematic racism.
So yeah, you can get technical and say you used the term correctly, but at the sake of demeaning and actual issue. I have to sleep next door to the people they let out of prison due to the institution of prison street cycle. I can’t say that you do, but I could be wrong. Your knowledge of what gangbanging entails is text book at best.
I’ve actually been banged on as well so there’s that lol
