When You're Wrong, You're Wrong: Black Folks Who Fault-Find

From borrowing money to expecting a relative to do something for nothing, some of our people just don't bother to put themselves in anyone's shoes.  They rather place blame, bad-mouth, and say foolish things about people who are trying to help them out.  Some will go so far as to create drama so that they can get an outcome that will best suit them even though they are wrong!

I thought of this topic for this blog entry after having a conversation about someone who has a past of lying to cover up some shady things.  He will then point the finger at others even though he knows he is in the wrong!  It makes no sense to me why one wouldn't take responsibility for his own downfall?

Sometimes our people just don't want to look at the facts, because they know to see the truth will make them feel worse.  So what some of our folks will do is turn the tables on the innocent, helpful, kind, and other well-meaning individuals.  They know they were supposed to pay a bill on time, so when the man comes expecting payment, somehow they create drama for him.  "I don't like the way he asked me for the money...I don't need him anyway...that's why nothing good is going to happen to him and his family..."  What!?  An angry woman or man who needed a product, money or service is now upset because the lender is in need of his or her own tool/money/service.  The borrower doesn't want to pay the lender.  So the lender is supposed to be alright with that?

Another issue I noticed about some of our people, who are just wrong but love to justify their misdeeds, is when they want to argue over the littlest of things and bring family members and friends into their drama!  Was it really necessary to curse someone out about something that you know you messed up, didn't have a receipt for, failed to read the fine print, made a verbal agreement on rather than get in writing, and so on?  Oh, but some of our big-mouth people are going to go off on the poor man or woman at the store, in the church, at the hospital, the amusement park--wherever!  "You know I don't like them folks...I don't care what I did, he didn't have to call the manager...That's why I can't stand them!  They racists!"  Say what!?

When you are wrong, you are just wrong, plain and simple!  Don't sugarcoat your mess!  Don't get mama and 'em involved by calling everyone up repeating your story the way you think it should sound.  You know your favorite Auntie, Cousin, and 'em is wrong!  But scared, needy family members and friends are going to show loyalty to that relative who they know is wrong.  They are going to claim that "all is good" even when it is not, because they know that So and So will hook them up.  But being loyal doesn't mean enabling folk to keep doing wrong.  Think about it for a moment, some of our people have gotten away with so much, including causing strife in the family for lies, "going off" episodes, and more, simply because weak-minded, ignorant folk permitted them to act like fools!  It's time for all of us to wake up, stand up, and not let some of our people keep us from moving up, because they want us to get involved in their stuff. 

Enough is enough!
