As a white man, we never have any idea which way it's going to go with anyone. Could be a bump. Could be quick grasp. Could be a shake. Hell it might even be a low or high. It's like being blind.
There should be a sequel to White Men Can't Jump, called White Men Can't Bump.
People at my office have been fist bumping. I noticed someone in a senior leadership position would do it and his trick was he already has his fist out 5ft out and is doing it so confidently you’ve got time to see it, process, and prepare for contact.
“He ain’t done nothing wrong to me. He has done only great things for me. He pardoned Michael Harris so I have nothing but love and respect for Donald Trump.” - Snoop because Donald pardoned the co-founder of Death Row Records Source Jan 29, 2024 - HuffPo
It's really weird to see Snoop continuing to get treated like some sort of cross-generational wholesome Santa Claus. He's just a run-of-the-mill selfish millionaire. There's a reason he gets along so well with Martha Stewart. He has nothing in common with you and doesn't give a shit about anything but himself and his personal brand. There are legit icons of Hip Hop worth celebrating and deserving of being beloved public figures, but Snoop Dogg is not one of them.
Edit: some of you appear to believe it’s okay to be a Trump supporter as long as Donald Trump did your buddy a favor. So allow me to clear this up, it’s not. Hell, supporting a fascist just because he did your buddy a favor is barely better than being openly fascist and only furthers my point that Snoop is a selfish piece of shit.
As long as they aren't using there platform to promote dumb reactionary views like Kanye or j.k. Rowling just let people enjoy themselves. To the extent that people view snoop as political it's usually in regards to him representing weed / black stoner lifestyle and it's broader acceptance and legalization, which I'm all for. Even the article you pointed to where he praised trump was for getting his friend off for a non - violent drug offense which is good, even if trump did it. It would be better if he was letting off the average lower class black person in jail for that but something's better then nothing.
You know, the fact that every single comment on this post about snoop dog being skilled at something as mundane as going from a fist bump to a handshake being all about politics is the reason lemmy doesn't get much adoption
