It's the cost of being a mark. Black women are beautiful, consumerism is ugly.
It sounds like the industry has convinced people that being presentable is loading yourself up with unnecessary crap. Men used to wear all that shit and more. Tights, buckled shoes, wigs, makeup, etc. It's amazing how they convinced women that the stuff used to hide STD's makes them presentable now.

"Keep in mind, the news media are not independent; they are a sort of bulletin board and public relations firm for the ruling class-the people who run things. Those who decide what news you will or will not hear are paid by, and tolerated purely at the whim of, those who hold economic power.

Media is putting out stuff like lethal injections for mentally ill, conservatives taking up arms, etc. Heck, look at how people are being driven to care about youtubers one way or another.
