The Cosby Effect: The Early Edition

Let's see if I have it all:

  • Non-mainstream dress
  • Non-mainstream speech to the exclusion of standard TV English
  • Vulgar speech
  • Participating in the production of media that lionizes violence, misogyny and a destructive, dysfunctional capitalism
  • High teenage pregnancy rate
  • Overvaluation of sports
  • Undervaluation of education
  • Physically abusing women in reaction to poverty

Am I missing anything? Seriously.
