This shit is so unrealistic. You tellin me a bunch of city street black kids selling drugs are a bunch are not violent psychopaths, but are instead a bunch of 140 IQ criminal masterminds playing politics? Who wrote this shit, a bunch of jews?

It should be expected that the vernacular has changed since it's a show made in the early 2000s, based on the writings and experiences of a journalist writing about it during the 80s and 90s.
But it still shows everyone on the drug side as absolute empty monsters who will always choose violence over peace, to slaughter each other in droves just because dealing drugs and making money apparently isn't satisfying unless you also have turf wars going on so you can kill as many of the people around you as possible. The show even makes it a point twice, both on the police side and the criminal side, of someone trying to just remove the violence all together, but it's just met with "But that's not the real game though" nonsense, as if killing each other is the primary goal of dealing drugs.

Look chud intelligence is multidimensional. Some people have amazing kinestetic intelligence, and can shoot hoops like no other. Have you seen anyone hop over a patron car and scale a 8 foot fence and hit the ground running? Betcha can't do half that. Some people are born poets and really into rhyming music, some have extremely high emotional intelligence and true romantics but struggle with bearing the emotional burden of being a father and need to go out and find themselves, some have a keen eye on modes of business that is not appreciated or condoned by the mainstream capitalist society. Some people just own the banks and the media, they're really smart when it comes to seeing opportunities (just like the adventurous enterprising gentlemen I've mentioned before) and picking whose nephew they're going to be. Just step ıp as a man, be better, lift yourself up by your bootstraps and watch the show.

>All the drug dealers make retarded decisions and end up dead or in jail.
you don't get it. The fact that they're even "making decisions" is unrealistic. The show has them constantly thinking in terms of 3rd order effects, showing understanding of macro mechanisms, knowing how to not incentivize police interest, and all kinds of shit like that. People who have actually lived around hoodniggers will tell you how absurd that is, they are barely a step above animals.

If avon and stringer were beefing they wouldn't go after each others assets and set traps for each other like its the cold war, one of them would find the other by the end of the day and they would shoot each other and die. It really is that simple.
The only reason niggers get away with anything is because liberals and libertarians work extremely hard to prevent the police from going and arresting people who are very obviously criminals, they couldn't outsmart a possum.
>>
>>222081529
You think stringer is smart because he’s taking a basic economics course at a community college?
>>
>>222081597
If you think that's an example of a moral character able to empathize and reason, then you displaying the classic lowering of expectations that liberals so often twist themselves into knots over. The show does that over and over again, showing one of the criminals portraying the slightest sign of humanity, just a glimpse of not being a monster, and people like you go crazy because oh my god, one of them took a break from engaging in criminal activity for just a moment, that must mean they are angels deep down.

It's like clapping and cheering for a baby as it learns to walk, it's so damn condescending when that's applied to what's supposed to be grown ass adults.

no it's because the level of intelligence exhibited by even the bottom of the barrel niggers in this show is unrealistically high as per >>222081653
>>
>>222078202
The show does nothing to hide how retarded the nigs truly are, how fucking dumb must you be to see any episode of the wire and think “man, they’re portraying these groids as smart people!” Says more about your own comprehension skills but oh right this thread is b8 anyway so fuck off.
Seriously though, even the “nothings more dangerous than a nigger with a library card” faux scholar gangster disciple character is ultimately shown to be even dumber than McNulty, the impulsive drunk American Irishman with a temper problem.
>>
>>222081653
Okay, so let’s play your stupid little game about how niggers can’t understand anything. Put it in terms of the monkey, ladder, banana on a rope experiment. Six monkeys in a room, banana hanging from the ceiling, ladder in the room. Eventually a monkey gets the idea to use the ladder to get the banana. They all get blasted with water. Take a monkey out and replace it with a new one. New one tries to use the ladder to get the banana. The rest best the hell out of it. Repeat until none of the monkeys ever got water blasted. Replace a monkey. New monkey tries to use the ladder to get the banana. It gets the hell beaten out of him by monkeys who have no idea why they got beaten in the first place. That’s “the code of the streets.” Which stringer/avon decide to break by killing a state’s witness, because they don’t think there will be any consequences.
>>
>>222078202

Just about every person in the show is portrayed as either stupid, greedy, devious, or a mix of the three.
>>
>>222081653
This was clearly typed by a person who thinks having any level of an inner monologue is something entirely unique to themselves. Even very stupid people are capable of some amount of critical thinking, anon. Consider your own insights as proof.
>>
>>222082060
This is the same board that seems to think the chess analogy was written to be portrayed as somehow deep or insightful, not what it was: retarded gangbanger niggers grasping at straws thinking they philosophers now because they learned chess in prison.
>>
>>222082041
The funny thing is, to go along with the monkey example, is that in the show is when Stringer decides to see what happens if they actually cut down on the violence and murder, to not beat every single new monkey trying to reach for the banana, no water drops on any of them. But then new monkeys gets added that decides that fuck that, every monkey going for a banana has to be beaten even if they are all better off if they all get to climb up a ladder and get a banana, because that's the game, beating their fellow monkeys for the sake of beating them.
>>
>>222082241
Anon that came from the imdb message boards. Posted here to make fun of it.
>>
>>222082299
The water is the police. Stringer/avon got sprayed when they shot a states witness. Therefore stringer is double cautious about it. But he doesn’t grasp that the target of the violence is the issue and thinks it’s all violence, because he doesn’t see a difference between some black guy without a rap sheet and a drug dealing nigger.

This is why its pointless to use analogy and metaphor with people of your iq bracket, you confuse it and just end up spouting dribble.

>even monkeys learn eventually with enough negative reinforcement

>>
The only thing the show doesn’t adequately characterize is how when there’s violence, police chase the violence. But when there’s no violence, police chase kingpins. Then when they get a kingpin, the violence escalates again, meaning they chase violence until another kingpin is established. On and on, forever.

You seem to have missed the plethora of threads full of nigs who didn’t the memo, I suppose. That’s the beauty of places like this, they’re breeding grounds for retardation, all it takes is one fuck-with to ironically say something stupid but convincing enough that seeps into some gullible turbo autists brain like a worm and then it spreads until it becomes part of the status quo.

This series did nothing to lionize blacks. It's clearly written from a pre-Obama 2nd term perpetual culture war time period.

No shit the water is the police, but as the show points out a dozen times every single episode, the water does not give one shit about the monkeys at all. The water cares about showing it's superiors that less monkeys beat each other this month than it did the previous month, and after that it just wants to get on with it's own lives. It's happy to let every monkey get a banana if they stopped beating each other at every opportunity, because the beatings is what draws attention from the ones that set up the water.

So what keeps the monkeys beating each other, aka killing each other en masse? Only themselves, because that's apparently all they want. To kill each other to be king over the ashes. As season 3 shows, Avon and Marlo just wants the corners for the sake of having the corners. Because that shows "they are the man", even if themselves and every single person they have ever known has to die for it. And Stringer is too busy trying to make it in legitimate business, to prove how smart he is, despite the fact that the entire time in the drug trade he's always relied on being able to use violence whenever he couldn't outsmart an opponent, so when he goes up against people without that option, he gets outsmarted and taken advantage of over and over.

>>
>>222083401
... anon the show is literally predicated on the fact the monkeys tried to climb the ladder and get the banana, that's why they're being sprayed with water. the banana is killing witnesses. killing people who aren't criminals. it reinforces this point multiple times. children being shot because niggers are fighting over corners. cops being shot because criminals think they can get away with killing snitches. etc. etc. etc. etc. avon and stringer think they can escape all the consequences, can ignore "the code of the streets," because they're the biggest monkeys and don't have to listen to the other monkeys. I know this is a dunning kruger thing where what is completely simple to me is incomprehensible to you, so this is just fun.

>>222083542
No you idiot. The banana is selling drugs. And when that's all that was happening, the monkeys got punished by water whenever they tried going for the banana. But then the violence between the monkeys got so out of hand, that water tried spraying the monkeys to stop them beating each other, only it couldn't keep up at all so it only now sprays water at the most attention grabbing violence it can spot, and ignores everything else because there isn't enough water in the spraying system to spray all of them. The violence is so ingrained that any monkey that doesn't want to engage in violence is slaughtered by their own just because they didn't want the mass death to go on.

So the monkeys could stop killing each other, stop harming everyone and everything around them and they would stop getting sprayed. But oh no, that's not the "code of the street", that's not "how the game is played" because it's no longer about money or creating a future for themselves. It's about "owning them corners", about temporarily being the man before being shot down as degenerate scum by one of their own.

I know you thought your basic bitch metaphor was so brilliant, marked you as so smart (Stringer, is that you?) that you can't recognize that what the show portrays is several steps further within the metaphor than you think.
>>
>>222084134
>This is why its pointless to use analogy and metaphor with people of your iq bracket, you confuse it and just end up spouting dribble.

If that's what you meant with banana, your metaphor doesn't work at all, because then the banana doesn't represent a reward. Too dumb to construct a metaphor, yet you think you are smart. No wonder you keep going on about Dunning Kruger, you are one of those morons who just think it refers to idiots being bad at estimating their own intelligence aren't you?

People with 85 IQs cannot process second and third order effects. Why do you think they kill people in such retarded circumstances? Your average white murderer is a malicious psychopath.

>>222084372
And yet, none of the monkeys are beating each other over others trying to escape the consequences of their actions. They are beating each other over the right to sell drugs on specific corners, trying to gain control of each others areas. No wars or conflicts was started over Avon and Stringer killing a states witness, the other gangs did not give one shit about that.

Give a monkey a banana, you feed it for a day. Teach it to climb a ladder, you kill a million monkeys without having to do anything.

this show became 200% homosexual after Stringer died
That gay season about the schoolkids needs to be permanently purged from the internet and all archives

>>222084255
I think the point with stringer bell was that with a minimum amount of intellectual effort he was able to rise above the rest of the dumbass gangsters and slingers in Baltimore.

However it gave him an ego so large that eventually he thought he could take on the system, only to be outmatched in just about every aspect.

Why is Landsman smoking a cigarette so satisfying to watch? The scene where he has Ziggy sign his confession all I can think is "damn that guy makes smoking seem pleasant as fuck."

> If avon and stringer were beefing they wouldn't go after each others assets and set traps for each other like its the cold war, one of them would find the other by the end of the day and they would shoot each other and die. It really is that simple.
Did you see what happened at the very end of the show with Prop Joe's nephew?

I hope your theory of mind develops enough to understand the general human ability to respect local social politics - really general mammal/avian ability, it's not hard to understand the concept of revenge

You're underestimating Avon I think, at least in S1 he's kind of setup as a criminal mastermind that they need a special taskforce to crack
>has no paper trail, in S1 they struggle hard to get even a picture of him as an adult and Freamon has to go to a rundown boxing gym to find an old advertisement
>(probably?) came up with the dial pad code and the pager system (no other crew is seen using it)
>deduced they had a leak somewhere during S1
>successfully evades the cops after the basketball game

He gets significantly more retarded in S3 tho

You might be trolling considering there are like 4 niggers every season that just shoot eachother indiscriminately and then the top guys have to take the heat for it
The parts where Stringer finally loses his cool and just starts yelling at them for being mindless niggers are actually my favorite
>>
>>222078202
I love how Stringer thinks he's some kind of business mastermind because he takes community college classes on microeconomics and has a shitton of drug money to play around with. He just gets totally rinsed by everyone around him. It's amazing to me to think that anyone thinks he's some kind of badass instead of a complete joke. Even the writers of the show seem to think so, the way McNulty finds a copy of The Wealth of Nations in his apartment and is all gobsmacked like he's some brilliant genius. The older I get the more I sympathize with Avon.

The Jew who made the show literally apologizes for making an evil Jewish lawyer character on a commentary track and basically admits he did it to disguise the fact that they think they're superior to goys.

Yea bro there are no nerdy black kids especially in big cities I know because I can see everything on the internet

God, you retards are dumb. You take a show about one gang in one city and generalize across the entire country. Have you taken any statistics classes or learned about outliers? Do you think they would have made a show about the general criminal in general america and whether anyone would have watched it? Do you really think black people are the only demographic producing dumb criminals or is this just an effect of growing up in an echo chamber that tells you whites can do no wrong. Funny how no one on this site talks about florida man, the dumbest white archetype in america, an entire state of dumb ass white people but black people are somehow different because timmy here grew up on the 4chan echo chamber and doesn't know anything else. We've not even talked about appalachia, an entire region of poor white people still hang up on the good old days that are never coming back. What about the rust belt, an entire region that willfully killed its own industry and shipped jobs to the east. What about the entire white population, a people who keep complaining about being played by jews, can't move on from that, but black people are supposed to be dumber, lmao, you literally lost to a minority population but are calling others dumb. Now you are dealing with the chinese and still losing. Your gig is up, maybe stop blaming jews and blacks and actually look at yourselves in the mirror.

not only is that objectively wrong.the instincts vary by race. Asians for example dont exhibit drop reflexes

anon nestle exploits this >>222098198 fact to basically have african slave labor by immediately giving babies formula, which causes them to reject breasts. meaning their mothers need to work for nothing or watch the baby starve.

Some of the rank and file cops should be added. Academic standards in Baltimore PD are hilariously low. They have quite a few detectives with nothing past a high school diploma.
Some nominally have masters degree or equivalents.

The cops really don't have the same drive or ruthlessness that the kingpins do. How much is Avon being smart, and how much of it is the cops being incompetent or not giving a fuck?

there is a difference between what they say and how they say it. most of them are actors, but they have real people like snoop. When Snoop speaks, shes legit, but she would never say those words in her life. those lines were written for them for the sake of the story. written by people who have never lived in the projects. thats why the show is unrealistic. it portrays them as people with genuine thoughts instead of getting high all the time and being violent

anon just wanna see homosexual sex live on TV like every other right wing chud that browses /lgbtv/

yeah, you should watch The Corner. Maybe then you can understand why it lasted 1 season and The Wire 5.
