Educated blacks are like bright sunlight shining down through a dirty car window. In the darkness, you can't really see all the dirty spots but when the light is reflecting, you realize just how scummy it is.
No one what's to be shown up for the losers that they are. Educated well-off blacks, makes those who are wasting their lives away look like complete fools and inferior. They don't want to feel like losers and like they are less than, so they us the defense mechanism of putting down the educated black in order to maintain their security.
So, instead of solving the problem by cleaning the dirty window, they would rather remain in the dark because its easier to turn out the lights.

All people do that all the time, they keep criticizing what they want - how can they ever expect to get what they are criticizing!?
It's just this strange part in so many human beings that likes to put all their problems and frustrations to other people, not realizing that if they don't accept responsibility for themselves, they don't have control and won't be able to reach their desires.

That one amazes me. Even reading books. Or not giving white people a hard time.
Once at a copy center, one black guy trying to burn his music cds wanted to ask me a question but had to wait until his black friend's backs were turned and quickly asked his question.
Any advise on how to live your life or raise kids is dismissed as "thats how white people do it."
Unbelievable, and terribly sad.

I can ony surmise that it's just part of the culture. They hear their older siblings/parents doing it, so they do it. They prob can't explain it themselves.

I think people do that, regardless of color, because of their own self-esteem.

They're probably jealous.
