Tyshawn Jones SOTY

[BurgerCop]

I think I'm starting to feel some Tyshawn Fatigue.

[Maurice46]

“That racist n****” is always gonna feel like a weird choice of words to me.

Yeah, using that phrase is confusing and inconsistent to say the least.

Pretty lame of Tyshawn to call GH racist for questioning his trick, but maybe he was joking?

[close]

So all I saw was an IG story with a screenshot of someone else's tweet saying:
"on my knees begging skaters to acknowledge that they may have unconscious antiblack biases"
That alone was pretty cryptic, and "may have" could be operative words. I also wouldn't jump to the conclusion that was directed to GH.

Maybe I missed something. Is there another part to this where TJ explicitly mentioned GH?

[close]

People were mentioning GH in Tyshawn's livestream yesterday on Instagram and he said "they're talking about that racist n****" - 4:18 mark in the link below.

[close]

And then he and his homies laughed about what he just said. Doesn't seem that serious

What? lmao

Not a very chill thing to joke around about, especially without clarification...

[lesghettah]

Did someone on slap not post a screenshot of them dming Tyshawn about it and he said he meant it about someone else?

The only weird vibe I've gotten from GH is when he was talking about Sam Hyde on a livestream and he said something like "I don't agree with everything he says but he has interesting perspective".

For anybody that doesn't know, Sam Hyde is a comedian who does alt-right edgy humor. He's done a Reddit AMA where he repeated Great Replacement talking points, and has donated to the legal defense fund of a neo Nazi.

Sounds pretty on brand for a nazi lover to say “interesting perspective”, anytime someone gives that type of leeway to any fascist bs it’s a red flag. I’ve never heard GH talk, I’d rather go skate than listen to someone pontificate on the shit, but to me this sounds like thinly veiled racism, and a lot of the takes on TJ give that same vibe

Lol

[fakie nollie]

So tyshawn is gonna be SOTY

[hotstudios_on_youtube]

Tyshawn calling anyone racist is a joke because Mickey been calling people racist

[1080isthebeststunt]

why tf do you make such a big deal of him saying gh is racist in a 5 min stream at 4 min while laughing? its not that serious.

[burner]

Soooo, any word on when Part 2 is dropping? Must be soon, right? Can’t wait!

its because you have to approach it at an angle to even have a chance to make it over the bench.
bringing up the tfunk ollie in this thread and comparing it to the tyshawn switch ollie is just stupid
two completly different things, both super sick for what they are.

Their brand seems to launch at 12/2/2022. He's probably going to release his part on that day.

Anyone who says that lowkey agrees with some alt-right stuff but is too chicken shit to admit it. And there is a lot of anti-blackness in skating, hell in America in general. Just look at the Will Smith thing. Hollywood has protected abusers for years, Will slaps Chris Rock (someone who always attacks Black women) and they act like he went up there and murdered him. Black folks are held to a different standard.

GH is lame anyway. I don’t understand why anyone would listen to a random give his opinion on skateboarding. I’d rather hear pros talk about it. But this society does love to prop up mediocre white dudes so it’s not shocking. Kinda reminds me of that Needledrop dude. Why should I care about a white dude’s opinion on Black art? 😅

Your points are fine but your take on the will smith slap is kinda off. It's that will exposed himself as a pathetic kook. Wouldn't matter who he got up and slapped the result would be the same. Wouldn't matter if it was still Chris Rock but will smith was replaced by someone else and they reacted the same way they would be held to the exact same standard. It's been months and nobody gives a gram of shit that Chris Rock got slapped it's just now everyone thinks will smith is a joke.
As to why anyone cares about gh I'm guessing it's just a bunch of 14 year olds really. Don't know a single adult who can get past two minutes of him.

I mean tens of thousands of people tune in every week to listen to Gary Rogers give his comedic take on skateboarding and he’s propped up by Thrasher…

Tyshaun is a legend after all this. And despite King having one of the worst brand identitys in recent memory. I will probably buy a deck.

didnt he say he's anti hasan piker the leftwing youtube guy? the plot thickens

[1080isthebeststunt]

gifted hater is a man who acts like hes cool with plenty of gay people in crop tops who skate but cant look at a hetero man in a crop top without having to point out how whack it is immediately because he cant stop cringing.
he def acts more open minded than his subconscious self is.
he alway knows what the accepted opinion on popular topics are and is smart enough to know how to handle them.

ive known people that were like we're so down with different cultures but as soon as somebody made a racist joke about them they wouldnt stop laughing and say how bad this is and wrong but so fcking funny omg
