12730200, why do pundits assume only old white ppl understand irony and hyperbole?

when you were a kid, did you take all music litterally?
or did you understand that the shit is to be taken with a grain of salt?

steely dan has some downright reprehensible lyrics, if the songs
are taken literally.

but pundits hear eminem and assume kids will take the shit as a guide to live life.


black children are not that stupid.
they are not listening to the songs at face value.



well, maybe some exceptionally stupid children are.

but you can't do anything about the exceptionally stupid.
you could read the bible and justify killing folks for no reason if you want.


are only white ppl allowed to grasp irony?
Why?
