If u r Jamaican, u r rude as hell too, it's just that nobody has pushed that button as yet. We can be very respectable and laid back...until that button gets pushed
gosh. There is a jamaican lady working same palce with me. In Gods NAME, she is the most disrespectful and angry lady i have met since birth. Every one the company, UPS drivers, supervisors and regular employees know about her disgusting attitude. She will disrespect you, insult you anytime even without provocation, even to people meeting her for the 1st time. A report about her uncivic conduct is being filed with HR. its a beautiful Island but I dont get the aggresive vibe
I am Jamaican also and unfortunately what you are saying is true about many Jamaicans, not all, but too many. One of my co-workers told me that I was the only nice person from Jamaica she's ever known, and this made me so sad.
THIS IS TRUE ! It’s not all Jamaicans but it’s a lot of them! Jamaicans are well known to be disrespectful because it’s true. Really bad communication skills. The culture is AGRESSIVE , STRESSFUL AND TOXIC. I love being Jamaican but hate how a lot of us interact so poorly with others. Majority of my family is Jamaican and they were very overwhelming and hard to be around and speak to. I’m not family orientated. you have some decent and respectful and opened minded Jamaican but the culture is WELL KNOWN TO BE HARSH BECAUSE IT LITERALLY IS. Jamaicans culture has a very aggressive history.
I know this Jamaican couple who came to live in the U.S with their kids.They would literally steer me down whenever we see each other.When they finally warm up to us, they wouldn't know where,when and how.Mind you, this is a predominantly white neighborhood and we are the only caribbean people there.Whenever they see us,whether is a store, on the road,they do not care who is around.They are often loud,harsh and crazy.I always feel embarrassed to be around them but just because all of us are caribbean i try to tolerate.I never had any experience with jamaicans until met them and i was disappointed.
Bro I'm a jamaican hereing this make mi feel not proud and u should be ashamed Jamaicans are not disrespectful they are calm people and we are trying to speak like more english do better do better this broke my heart😢
@@TahjadeCampbell-mu1mnamaicans are calm ppl? This must be a joke. Elderly ppl 60+ on the deep countryside might be a bit more decent. For me at appears even if Jamaicans look calm from the outside there’s a internal rage going on in their heads and it doesn’t need much that they get openly hostile . But ofc they would call it being bold, direct or assertive.
Yes that maybe true about Some but I was born in Jamaica and while I don’t have a lot of respect for All Jamaican because of attitude I was brought up to show respect at All times embrace people of any Colour But if they are not respectful of me and my family then I will not tolerate their disrespect nature. Love and
It's mostly Kingston people. Country people are much calmer and a bit more amiable. Kingston people are not just disrespectful. They are rude, hostile, no cordiality, cantankerous, angry, cross and miserable. I think it's something in the water over there!!!
Nah, I ain' mad at her for this video at all. Jamaicans have a hostility and a rudeness about them that I haven't seen amongst any of the other islanders. Overly aggressive and speak with this angry tone. Like they treat you like you're beneath them. (Not all of them, but a lot of them). And they are BIG TIME BULLIES. They love to taunt and tease people. I notice that about them.
I even have anxiety disorder because of Jamaicans, whenever I see them I cross the road and never give them a second stare, idk what's up with them and that culture but they are not a very pleasant group of people to be around
Im currently in Jamaica and the people make me never want to talk to a Jamaican or step foot in Jamaica again. They are fake nice to you so they can ask for money later on. Thats most of them and i dealt with the craziest man while on the trip stating "did you come here to f**k?" I said no and he gets angry because he felt his efforts were wasted when i repeatedly wanted to be left alone and said so. Never coming back i swear!!!!
They’re all con artists so they use those strategies. They all have good money to they just lie to get your money they have this deep hatred for Americans
@QofEnlightenment I was wondering if anyone else felt this way, everything u said is spot on. It's so sad cause the island is nice the people are wretched, they are professional users disgusting, family worse than strangers
Jamaican and fake nice doesn't go into the same sentence, if a Jamaican doesn't like you, you will know, they are very blunt. If you are a tourist, spend money with the local and stop acting stingy
Not Jamaican, I'm Ghanaian. however the first time a man put their hands on me was my Jamaican brother in-law, at the time I was 21 and he was 40 and dating my sister. My fight or flight response kicked in. I busted a lamp over his head for that. It was a very traumatic experience as he is a bigger taller older man. The pathetic thing is, my sister didnt want to be a single mother so she married him, the child isn't even his, she was trying to find a husband because she was tired of being alone. He brought nothing to table financially but benefited from her. She married him even though he had a history of beating his ex-wife and he hit me. I don't blame her. In highschool from grades 9-11 there always one girl who wanted to fight me and didnt like me for reasons never explained and all three grades all three girls were all Jamaican. With that being said I have female friends who are Jamaican and they are considered weird because they are very different and their families are not about that rudeness, you remind me of them. I am allergic to ignorance.
Ya'll Hamite ambone Ghanains are million times worst than Jamaicans and there is this goof talking crap. That is why Rasta man tried to choke you before him headlamp came fallin'.
@@lornafuller8705 Exactly! Ignorance is factual. What does the truth have to do with ignorance? I'm done. Your comment clearly demonstrates your intellect. Smh
@@Chickenpesto2468 I was just going to say that and I’m wondering why out of all the islands are Jamaicans the most aggressive? The attitude is very similar to that of black Americans.
I don't like Jamaican men, my ex was terrible. Mean behind closed doors.... very charismatic around people. Abusive too his daughter and mom. I do not recommend dating, marrying, conversation, living with any Jamaican man. In fact ladies please run far away in the opposite direction.
Yes. my god this Jamaican man tried to "hit on me" (more like harassed me) at a Chevron and my god it was so aggressive and rude I felt scared. Literally. His friend had to tell him to calm down cause he not in Jamaica and women don't like that shit in america
It has been that way for a very long time. When I in foster care I was raised by a Jamaican family. They practically tortured and tormented me for any reason they could find! Scary!!!
Jamaicans beg too damn much. What a turn off. I am Jamaican living in the U.S for 50 years and I avoid them like the plague. After my father's death in Jamaica, I cut all ties.
@@Nick876JM what a way my opinion bun yuh!… I said what I said and there is nothing you can do about it Troll. When I spend my dollars in Jamaica, jamaica foreign exchange benefit. Again, Jamaicans beg too damn much. FACTS!!
Same thing happened to me when I went to grenada when I was 10. I had breasts already at that age n my mom literally had to fight off grown ass men from me. I think it's a Caribbean thing in general but even more than that, it's a class thing. There are different social classes in the Caribbean. The more educated, the more well-behaved
Thank you! None of the things she mentioned are specific to Jamaica. Men are perverts and they act on their urges more openly when those actions have no or little consequence. American men may not holler or grab a little girl's body in public, but that doesn't mean you would let your daughter go out by themselves or be behind closed doors with adult men.
As a Jamaican myself, I totally do agree with u.....We Jamaicans need to wake up n realize not because our music n culture is so famous n accepted all over, that the world revolves around us, or is obligated to accept us with our dirty behavior. I say this many times....it's time for us to wake up n be more accepting, so we can be more accepted.
My friends just went to Jamaica, a Brazilian couple, and they were super disappointed. Basically they said jamacians always have an attitude, always try to scam you even on bus/taxi rides, get angry if you look at them for too long, they catcalled and agressively approached the girl even though she was with her boyfriend. And everything was expensive: hotels, food, taxi, entrances etc Then they went to Cuba and felt like in paradise. Friendly nice respectful people, food good and cheap, nobody tries to scam you etc.
Is it the couple from "MundoSemFim" channel?... If it is, I would never go to Jamaica after seeing their video. Everyone was so harsh and disrespectful to them... I mean, everywhere there are around 5% of people you meet who will be rude/stupid, and its normal. But in Jamaica it seems like 50% or even more are rude and stupid woth tourists. Honestly, I thought Jamaica was a relaxing place to be...I changed my mind, my girlfriend watched their video too, and we came to conclusion we would not go to Jamaica even if we win a free airplane ticket. Just no way. There are better destinations with welcoming people in basically any other country near Jamaica.
@@brunobbll yup, Mundo sem fim! I was shocked to see such a crazy difference between black RU-vidrs going there and they had no problem. But i figured for "white" people it's different. And everything is expensive af lol
@@MishaElRusito Yap, thanks for the answer..What is funny though, Jamaica is a touristic destination, it has not a lot of industries...being focused on tourism and welcoming should be their priority...well that would be logical.. But oh well..
So true.they don't say thank you or please..other countries won't treat you like the jamaicans do.its pretty sad you won't get anywhere with this aggressive nes.rudness.its cost you nothing to be polite to people.the men in particular are always angry.when they talk to you
Sad but true, My daughter's mother is Jamaican, She's very rude and disrespectful. Always hating on other black women. never taking accountability for her words and actions. Always so-called praying to God but always cursing the dead and evil spirits, very weird the way she does this. A fiery and aggressive attitude, Never been in such a stressful and toxic relationship.
@@KubaUbba we can take the criticisms, it only goes to show the characters of these critics, and the kind of vulgar, rude, disrespectful Jamaicans they associate with. because birds of a feather flock together, Show me your company, and I will tell you who you are .Jamaicans are glad they are not from you neck of the woods.
Thank you for calling them out on this ugly behavior. To those Jamaicans that she is referring to, if another nation with military might attacks Jamaica one day, or if Jamaica has a bad catastrophe do not start calling on Al Sharpton and other Blacks to help Rally or support your cause, keep that same arrogant, disrespectful racist energy.
I Left Jamaica 50 years ago and most of what she said is true but it not all jamaican man and women is like that people are going to be people regardless all we off to do is pray for them especially the young generation that is coming up ❤❤❤ and respect for all of your friends and family
500 maroons took on 5000 British soldiers without any loss. Y'all were getting whooped. nobody think of you when we think of defense y'all only strong against each other and online..oh please
There is a caribbean (Jamaican) restaurant close to where I live, food is delicious but the people working there have nasty mean attitudes. Its almost as if they dont want you to eat at their restaurant. Very unwelcoming. They seem bothered and annoyed if you show up there.
@@ladyadeolaFunny you said that because I recently watched a podcast hosted by a comedian name Godfrey and he said the same thing about Jamaican restaurants
Tell them leave that shit in Jamaica. They come to America on that same shit then be mad when ppl generalize them as being rude. I mean, that's most ppl's experience with them so...
@@cxri9454 That's what makes Jamaican Jamaican, they are born to stand out not to assimilate. Also, most black people in America have some family from Jamaica because more Jamaicans live in America then they do in Jamaica.
@@cxri9454 We take our culture everywhere. Last time I checked Jamaicans were doing exceptionally well economically and in terms of educational attainment in America. Isn't that what Thomas Sowell and others have said? They want to know why we are excelling when other blacks aren't. We weren't built to neglect and forget who we are.
@@rqubed2603ourse they do well cause they blend in well in the contemporary narcissistic culture and not cause they have a bigger brain ..:) Psychopaths in average are more successful economically than the rest . It has always been an advantage to be assertive , ambitious , power hungry and confrontational esp. in corporate America. Unfortunately despite them being on the top of the black Americans they seem to be the most miserable.
@@svst3767 Our success is now a negative? We were voted the most influential small country in the world for a reason. According to you it's narcissism. Oh well.
I'm a Jamaican and I AGREE, sometimes I feel I shouldn't have born here. My fam and friends always call me a white girl because I will act differently. When I am just being myself...but it's not the Jamaican way. I feel really stuck here and will leave this country one day.
I can so relate to you. Not very proud of the aggressive and disrespectful aspect of the culture. Even when some have left the island and moved to another country for over 30 years, they still tend to exhibit these unfortunate characteristics.
Go online and find a country that Jamaican can go without visa,do your research we are not living in a cave anymore, the internet is big, your passport is common wealth, tell know one what you are doing,they will try to think for you and hold you back....
I work at a Jamaican Resturant but I was brought up in the state I didn’t go up in the Jamaican culture, and when I started to work at Jamaican Resturant, I experience how evil and hateful dear mindsets were is that they all be jealous of every little thing that you do especially if you like real Americanizing, you dress Americanized and you talk Americanized and you have certain gestures and mannerism they hate you for just that they hate you for people taking onto you, they hate you for hairdo and they are very nosy and intentional. They love to know your business so they can use it against you like it’s almost like right off the back they have a agenda against you. You could sense it in certain words they say in their eyes in right off the back of meeting them not even long after.
I remember when I was younger thinking some of the rudeness and overall attitude was so cool. But now being older, I have to shake my head. My family on my moms side is also from Jamaica, and I'll never forget as a 22 or 23 year old visiting and meeting family from ours there. While visiting relatives one visit, a cousin of ours came home a after we arrived, and not knowing any us, the first thing he said - mi come ah mi yad, a pure foreigna mi ah see! No hello, how are you? Welcome to our home and country..... none of that. As a young man i saw that as so 'charactertically' cool. Now I say - no where in the world would anyone 'even 'think' of saying anything like that, because nowhere else in the world does anyone think of themselves as some of them do, and think of others as some of them do. Keyword - SOME. It's obviously not all as we know, and this was also country 'country' Jamaica.
This is soo true I remember I was working in a grocery store and a group of Jamaican men came in they were so aggressive wanted my number and got offended because I didn’t want to give it to them they made me feel so uncomfortable they act like you owe them something
i dated a jamaican woman who i truly loved and wanted to love but it was the worst relationship i ever been in! Everything was combative and disrespect with her. I asked why did you book our trip at the farthest airport babe theirs one 10 minutes from the house, she goes “why would i fly out of that airport “ basically everything i asked her she would respond with “why would i”! Hey babe you want some chicken? “why would i want chicken” She also introduced me to witchcraft which i went thru life innocently not ever thinking about it, but she swore up and down i was cursed by another woman etc! Very ungrateful flew her out to cabo on her bday and says “you didnt do anything for my bday we just sat on a beach” the most toxic relationship i ever been in. She was very vain and hated her family so when it was my turn to introduce her to family life and structure she criticized it all , why do y’all celebrate thanksgiving, why do y’all celebrate xmas. Loves to try to emasculate me. Its sad cuz i saw a future with her she was very beautiful and into the bible but she was horrible at communicating anything and wouldnt let me get 2 words out. Islander women are very attractive but i just cant do it no more. At least i tried and thats was the last straw! may god be with yall cuz i will never again take one serious
I totally understand your point because I have jamaican friends. However, not all islander women are like that, I'm cuban and I can assure you that we're totally different. I've also met a lot of Trinidadians and in my opinion they're nothing like jamaicans. Same goes for Puerto Ricans and Dominicans.
@@LunaPaloma77 When i say islander i mean Jamaican, Trinidadian, Haitian, i mean of the black descent. I myself am black and puerto rican. My response wasnt directed towards the hispanic islander women i should have clarified.
@@leonaflorent2871 yes its sad because she doesnt see she did wrong and i on the other hand am not perfect and i have no problem admitting my faults. But i wish them the best because i will never put myself through that torture again.
Father is Jamaican, came to the states at 13. I’m 35 American, went to negril in 2022 and it was the worst treatment ever! The sufferation, the narcissism, the envy is too much! It’s not paradise anymore.
Resort staff didn’t want to serve me. Blatantly, severing white ppl over black. The staff just had a woe is me attitude and didn’t think to treat me like a paying customer! The taxi drivers all want to over charge. I grew up going to vaca as a child to country and all the main resorts. Even went as an adult years ago, but this trip during Covid was different! It seems like manners and professionalism went out the window! But my father, his father and all my uncles and aunts are narcissists! They still have generational trauma from slavery! Horrible ppl emotionally and physically!
@@mikewilkins2030 Jamaicans are known to kiss white people's ass and throw black people under the bus. This been going on since slavery. I never been on a resort in Jamaica and I read horror stories how blacks are treated poorly. I'm sorry this happen to you. Jamaican families can be difficult to deal with.
During my schooling I got along beautifully with all African, Asian and most White north american students, however every single jamaican was ruthlessly vicious and jealous, I had to go to school ready to fight defensively every single day for simply existing as a brown woman with a pretty face, fortunately I'm a very muscular built female so even though they wanted to harm me I could see them restraining themselves because they knew they would have every blow returned! No one should ever have to go to school and deal with any situation like the one I explained!
@@Markiplier3243sorry to hear that 💔......watch the boxing match between Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte especially the prefight interview where they sit down on opposite sides of the table, Anthony Joshua being a handsome brown man of nigerian decent has to tolerate such vitriolic hatred from the Jamaican boxer Dillian Whyte, and you can see the older white man sitting in the middle trying to understand the jamaican's hatred towards his opponent, that jealous hatred that only someone who's experienced it or has very open eyes could understand,,,well happy end alert, Anthony Joshua defeats his hatefilled jealous jamaican opponent! lol
@@SuperBikeRacer7 im also sorry u experienced that too. it's just that a lot of them (Jamaicans) come from troubled/poor families that is why they are like that also their history with slavery/racism in the Caribbean, so that holds them back but Africans are much better and more well behaved because they come from good families
They are so rude I went twice they get in front of each other in line and in America that’s I fight I’m in line wait your turn they jump in front of you and are mean ass hell and disrespectful
Yes they say I own America you shouldn't be here kinda attitude for being of a different nationality. Yet they travel to places they don't like travellers from other places.
They have some of the best food on the planet IMO but their customer service is horrifying and they have a very uninviting disposition and express attitudes
@@the5thzodiac I have been to a lot of Jamaican restaurants. Many are inviting but there are a lot where they act like they're doing the customer a favor and are not welcoming
I remember growing up and being alone around Jamaicans. I would listen to the comments they said about Americans especially African Americans 2very despicable 😭😭
I grew up hearing negative things, but the things I heard were about how ghetto and lazy they were, how they wanted government handouts instead of working and how they’re always involved in crime & creating broken homes, etc.
@@Thenewgirl36 And the sadder part about it is that, there is nothing Jamaicans would say about Africans American bad other than them eating buff back in the days. lol, AA and Jamaicans share the same history so what can they say? liar
That kinda makes sense, since a majority of the Africans who were forced to work in the Americas might have came from the western countries, including Nigeria
Im Mexican I own a restaurant and last week 3 people from Jamaica came and they was very racist they just was offensive and snapping fingers all fat and picky Since I’m so nice they got on my nerves so I told em “go to gym and learn how to talk real English gals”
Yes they are extremely racist but is very good at hiding it. They will try to say we aren’t like Americans but are worse they hate everyone including they own Jamaicans so weird they are predators
I have a Jamaican dad n African American mom, and I’m a guy my self my dad rude n argumentative.. good father but could be toxic growing up at times .. but at my job this Jamaican lady made 3 white guys quit off of her aggression towards them…yea some Jamaicans are very abrasive…I love that they don’t hold back, like u don’t ever gotta question if a Jamaican don’t like you, you would know.. but being from New York , and my mom family is abrasive as well as Americans …as far as wanting to be claimed as Jamaican or whatever I. Never say I’m Jamaican I just say my dad is Jamaican n my mom is black American, .. and for me it was kinda the opposite I’ll say I’m American and where my family from n ppl be like u Jamaican…I be like nah I’m American … i feel like Jamaicans see being Jamaican as a nationality first, to them it’s all about where your born and I kinda agree…. But that doesn’t erase your heritage. So no for me how I see it I’m not a Jamaican person “ I wasn’t born in Jamaica ..I’m just finding out what back n front is😂. I have Jamaican heritage by the way of my father. Like culturally I’m Jamaican, but I’m not Jamaican if that make sense 😂
I'm Haitian American and yes alotta Haitians are the same way, I go to Haiti every year and end up in a fight or argument mainly with the men tye Haitian women are blind to what the Haitian men tell them, but alotta them open up when the Haitian men are not in the way, crazy thing I live Haitian women
Growing up in New York and Florida. I always noticed that the Haitian kids were much nicer than the Jamaican kids. Never been to Haiti, so I don’t know how they are in their own country.
@@Transformersarecoming4yourkidsHaitians are calmer yes. The parents are strict, so the kids behave. It’s almost like military school. They’re heavy on the education. But a lot of the times the men will act up. Men being men. The women are sometimes to dam calm about it in the name of “family”. Haitians are also very private. So if they live in an apartment it’s not likely you will hear them arguing. The culture is very strict when it comes to everyone knowing your business. It’s looked down upon to have people know your problems in your household. Even a kid getting In trouble will be done in silence. You’ll just hear the smacks.
Well i have to be honest ive learned different people's countries seem to develop different ways of being i dont want to say bad stuff but its about honesty what ive noticed collectively The people ive met from Jamaica here in the U.S they have very stink attitudes and they are normally very rude it just seems to be consistent from one to the next of the subject of Jamaicans to prove my point in observing life attitudes of different countries Dominicans seem to be anti black African ancestry they seem to try whatever to wipe out all African dna in a country filled with people who have large amounts of African DNA ive heard a number of mixed looking Dominicans talk about not liking black people thats been consistent anyway
A German lady who lives in Jamaica for 30years warned me dating Jamaican women . She said one out of 20 is ok the rest is sneaky. She has a Airbnb and told me crazy stories of some of her male guests trying to date Jamaican ladies . Some lost lots of money , one guys fingers were bitten off in the night by one , one guy lost his life. I dated one some years ago and needed a year to recover from her extrem narcissistic behavior.
I had a scary experience with a Jamaican man when visiting there with some friends. If it wasn’t for the grace of god, things could’ve gone so differently. If I ever visit Jamaica again, I’m not interacting with/conversing with locals, I’m not doing it. Because they are all a bit off.
What happened? What did he do? I’ve grown up around them and went to school with them in London so I know very well what they are capable of unfortunately
@@iBOXRIVERso all the other cultures are well behaved, that is not what I see on the evening news, please tell us what only the Jamaicans are capable of
Your video is so true! I just came from a graduation and it was a few Jamaican men and women there who's family member was graduating and they were giving me evil looks and nasty attitude it's like they are mad at the world
I am married to a Jamaican and I have visited there. Everything she says is true in my opinion. I don’t understand why most not all of them are this way. My in laws horrible first few years of marriage. Anyone not Jamaican is an issue. Took me giving them a taste of thier own medicine to earn respect. Sad cause that’s not me. They are very arrogant and very detached emotionally. It’s like pulling teeth to be accepted into a Jamaican family as an American. I loved certain parts of Jamaica like the resort. We met a nice guy there who was very nice and told us most of the workers hate their job and fake being nice to tourist. They are merely trying to make a living. Outside of resort to visit family was in my opinion just sad. Even the family member who drove us asked for so much money. Stayed with family one night and spent so much. Though we planned to give they asked for way more smh. Everyone wanted something including husbands mom who was there on vacation. The resort again lovely but the people and their attitudes make me never want to visit again. So many other places that actually make you feel welcomed. It’s like begging for even a hello smh. They only spoke to my husband as he’s born there as for me lol I may have been invisible once I landed cause no one hardly spoke to me unless I tried to initiate conversation even with the family and the ladies are always watching rudely. Btw I’m not mean or stuck up I am usually very freindly . Been to other islands Jamaica ain’t it. Not for me. Sorry but not sorry.
@@mariej3498 Trust and believe you’re not the only person who has experienced terrible mistreatment from Jamaican in-laws.

Other family members partake insulting non Jamaican in-laws.Sorry you had to endure verbal insults from your husbands family.
@@AbstractDivinity1 thank you. At first it was very hard but I definitely learned to have a thick skin and give them a piece of their own medicine and they respected me. It’s a lot better now though we aren’t besties lol but very cordial and respectful most of the time. I just set boundaries and distance myself when I need to. Took a long time to get there with them.
We have a lady from Jamaica who works at our local Walmart and I have to avoid her because she is so rude! She always accuses ppl of stealing and even told my young son he was trying to steal a name brand jacket he wore in the store. I'm so confused because I've always been nothing but polite to cashiers or anyone that works with the general public but even when I'm polite she always has something rude to say.
I’m 100% yardie and I always complain about the customer service at restaurants.. people behind the counter don’t give af about being polite. Jus mek sure you kno weh u want before you get to the counter..
Don't let some of these bad experience seperate you from your roots..I understand where your coming from..You are Jamaican bases upon your experiences..Your very beautiful so I know that's from the Jamaican side😜 ..I use to think I lived in the garden of Eden as a child, that's a true statement. It is a Jamaican thing they treat you different its a jealous type of backwards things..Its weird...Even if you were born and came as a child, they dont consider you Jamaican its the dumbest thing..Their mindset is your not a real Jamaicans because your dilect is different or because your more refined or wasnt raised in the slums.. It makes people feel awkward an alienated its a mindset..My son was born in Tivoli but came as a toddler when he returns they tease him and tell him fi go home its almost cruel the badmind and jealousy is heavy
Totally agree. My mum is from Jamaica and I just came back yesterday. Third time visiting. Some of them are very arrogant and condescending, they think foreigners are stupid , and that they're better than them. Many workers have no manners, talk down to foreigners , and massively hike up fees, hell, in one instance some hotel workers tried to extort money from me for apparently lost and damaged hotel goods. It was all a lie and they gave the money back after I put the fear of God in them when I showed them I wasn't a fool to be scammed. F them and their arrogance. For the beautiful souls there, God bless and this doesn't pertain to you. Ongl the dark hearted fools.

You have made some stereotypical comments but to some degree you're correct. Jamaica does have a harsh and aggressive culture. A lot of it is due to hardships. When state in that Jamaicans are rude and your experience as do most of others who have experienced or interact with Jamaicans A lot of that that you've experienced comes from those individuals that are uneducated and poor. I'm Jamaican and have lived outside of Jamaica for more than half of my life yet I'm close to my culture and no one in my family asked the way that your family does or your experience so it just depends on an individual you can't put everyone in a basket but for the most part the social norm and culture of Jamaica is aggressive harsh hard...
@@AbstractDivinity1 She's making generalizations about an entire country and you're talking about feelings? When you're so upset that you label all people belonging to a group as one thing you're the one in your feelings. Especially when you're defending idiocy.
Yes, perverts are everywhere, but people don't just accept it as normal behavior. In Jamaica, a grown man can call out to a school girl and nobody says a word to him, especially if he has a little money. Basically this condones the behavior. In many other countries, this scenario wouldn't happen. Anyone within earshot would give that guy hell, but in Jamaica, they all pretend it's none of their business.
That they stole all my mom's clothes literally left her without anything to wear took her last three bracelets that she had we've also had a few haitoan aodes
It has to do with poverty. But they get a boost from their culture.. music and vibes so they become boastful because its really all that they have to boost their morale. Thats the gist of it... but when they start boasting about being the pride and capital of the Caribbean I shake my head because everyone else except them seems to think otherwise. All the music in the world, fame, and popularity couldnt make you the best if your economic state is unstable. Its really sad...
I’m a Jamaican and I agree. Jamaicans are the first ones to preach humility but are arrogant when speaking about themselves in relation to other islands. It’s wild
@@Posting7 very much so, they blind themselves to their true position within the country and their leaders use that against them. The popularity of the culture. Notice when election time comes, anything serious to address the leaders try to pretty it up by mentioning the success of prominent PEOPLE within the country. They never mention the country's prominence. After covid the people literally increase the pay for Ministers. I'm a Bahamian, we watch these things and shake our head.

@@Jamaicangirl21000 nah lol y’all are uber aggressive as fuck. Black Americans always try to have a bit of logic and speak rational before they get mad but you guys go 0 - 100 in 2 seconds over small things. No rhyme or reason jamaicans are the most emotional and disturbed people on Earth
If you go to a restaurant in negril to eat ,as a Jamaican you get the worst service ever because in there heads black people don't tip,, if you just sit and observe how they treat Americans and Canadian, and European, they treat all these people better than there own kids but they cannot see it because the money blind them to reality,,Jamaican put pride over principles,,most Jamaican think if they dress expensive or have a car that it ,but they fail to understand that it's the things what you do count, not what you have.
It’s the same on all those tourist islands, especially barbados, it’s so sickening to watch. I travel a lot to the Caribbean and I’m always heart broken to see these people in the service industry treating black people like dogs, it’s so infuriating to observe. I was in barbados last year, and stayed in st lawrence gap, and I promised myself never to go back. Years ago it was really nice, the elders had way more respect for black tourist, but these younger people suck up to whites and handle black travelers like they don’t need your business. Same with Tobago, those young boys in tobago who hang around the tourist areas looking to pick up white chicks are so aggressive and unfriendly it’s not funny, in fact in all those tourist islands where black men hustle on the beach is unfriendly to black tourist but kiss up to white folks, it’s almost like they hate seeing us. Caribbean people really need to clean up their act, or they’ll get left behind while chasing the white dollar.
Now I understand why I've never felt accepted and angry 🎉 wow thanks for this video! I'm mixed and always just felt it was the mix of colonizers blood but now I understand it's more than that!!
The truth is what it is...even if u help them, it's nothing for them to turn right around and cuss the clothes off your back, ungrateful, bad minded, evil not to be trusted for one nano second. Don't know what is the cause of this behavior but it smacks of demonic possession and it's all over the Island, except for a handful of decent honest minded people who still live there.
I work with them at Resturant if you ain’t growing up there in Jamaica, you ain’t gonna be able to tolerate being around them for too long because your upbringing don’t match the mindset and they are very negative and they are Nick picking and you’re hateful
@@Misschinchin_birdtrue I am born in a Jamaica household. I am Americanized. They make a distinction between Jamaican people born on the island and people born in America whose parents are Jamaican. They make you feel ostracized and I don't fit it with them. Jamaicans are rude, disrespectful, envious, and very vindictive people. Not all but a lot of them possess those characteristics and are not pleasant to be around.
Well, you are an American, if you were born here. That is your primary nationality. Jamaican is your heritage, not your nationality. And no, nationality doesn't mean race.
There’s a lot of American born citizens with dual citizenship and I’m one of those US citizens who had the privilege to travel with both passport documents. This lady Jamaican heritage can also be her nationality if she apply for Jamaican citizenship.
@@NativeNomad10She’s free to travel to Jamaica because she’s hasn’t committed a crime that would prevent her from coming to Jamaica. Jamaica is a toxic country full of criminals terrorizing people trying to make an honest living. Other Caricom countries are not a wicked like Jamaica.
@@NativeNomad10 you’re not healthy for your own country, because instead of checking yourself and cleaning up your act, you chose to ignore the findings. Just remember that there’s no greater criticism than constructive criticism. If I have food in my beard I’d like for someone to inform me that I need to clean up,not laugh and talk with me while I look ridiculous unknowingly. What kind of friend would do such a thing?
I think you are a bit confused.. You talk about some heavyweight black educators like Bobby Hemmitt yet you're trying to belittle or stigmatized a whole entire nation of people base on your individual experience.... All Jamaicans don't walk around begging people... Jamaicans are very proud people that why a lot of people secretly hate on them... As a tiny nation of black people look at the impact they have on the world stage... I would advise you or whosoever have there personal experience with the Jamaican they come in contact with don't generalize and think all people are the same... Just like how all white people are not racist... All Jamaican are NOT what you're describing.. Peace and Love 🇯🇲
I'm Bahamian and I have heard stories from people, I have observed, and I have had an encounter with a Jamaican lady...here's what I think they feel their musical and altheltic achievements give them entitlements and the right to belittle others they feel are less than they are..I mean if it wasn't for bob marley pushing reggae music...reggae music would be like any other music...marketing is a BIG DEAL...but they should be happy when people in other islands like Bahamas embrace their music and not trying to "steal" it like they'd like to think...but Bahamians rarely play reggae anymore...i mean it used to be blasting from young boys car in 90-early 2000s but nowadays it doesn't seem to be that popular like in the days of 90s so be happy no one can take reggae from Jamaica the world knows you guys invented it...but you guys are not the only ones who produce greatness!!
It’s so funny because any real Jamaican knows the immediate response to someone not liking them. 😂 “mi like you?” “Mi much like too” “mi wise no like you” 😂
It’s like there’s so negative you can predict your next move. They always wanna like insinuate or imply something subliminally and if you were still, I corrected there at like what you sent wasn’t so they play a lot of mind games culturally they they’re very like mischievous and thinking they always have some type of intention, and they have flood you with questions with personal questions. If you are not a liar, you end up opening yourself to them, because they are very intrusive and ask them questions and whatever they actually gonna start talking like they know you like that, and it would even spread narratives, so it’s like when you talk to them you have to be very per cautious with your words in like things that you say because you’re negative listeners and they are listening to have something to miss term against you so I really hate the culture. They are very negative even down to the man we give you hate, and you and your woman, like they are very competitive if you work in the in the workplace with them, you never see a man.
The Caribbean culture has a poor privileged mindset, if we keep running away from our people their behaviors will only get worst, we the children are their teachers, when they speak rude, you carry patience and speak to them in a different energy, it’s a spiritual fight but we must be strong.
No sir! Dont drag other Caribbean nations into the spotlight! Truth be told Indy Jamaicans act this way. Yall super aggressive cuz other Caribbean nations like Guyana, Antigua, Barbados, The Bahamas etc. are not aggressive like Jamaicans. So no dont try that...
@@LMartin242 well ma’am, sir, alien, I live in Brooklyn I know what I’m talking about, I dealt with Trinidadians, Jamaicans, Haitians, Guyanese, Grenadians, st.Vincent folks, folks from Bahamas and Barbados, etc…. Every Caribbean folks that comes straight from the Caribbean have an aggressive mindset/attitude, Jamaicans just air theirs out w/no effs given
@@Thecoolcatzz lol sorry but dealing with SOME and not living or interacting with them daily tells you nothing. Your immaturity and ignorance proves the lady in the video correct. These people from other Caribbean countries are aggressive when you trigger them. However, Jamaicans are GENERALLY aggressive at ALL times. They are and that's the truth... we dont act that way in The Bahamas and please stop bout you live in Brooklyn, all of you illegals run to Brooklyn dear thats no secret so dont boast yourself to me. That's the issue people are having with you all now.. boastful, immature and aggressive lil rapists. You all have a huge problem with men killing women and raping kids in Jamaica plus kidnapping. The war against women is sickening down there and I just left in April. Soon as I reach big fight in the supermarket in Ochi. So save your ridiculous excuses man.
@@LMartin242 still all Caribbean folks have the same mindset, so like I said Jamaicans should be dealt with love, because Caribbean folks understands what it’s like to be irate and easily angered, give Jamaicans a break, every Caribbean thinks the way they talk, is my point!
HI Sorry 😞 you have to feel that way about Jamaican. Not all Jamaican is that way I know I married one. When Jamaica started to get into political parties and dropping the queen and moving to less British seems like the trouble makes are more bold and violate. You have a right to feel that way. Alot of my family members will not go home to Jamaica because of this. You take the way of your oppressors. Thinking you are going to get more freedom. Total wrong. Peace and one 💘 love queen.
Thank you for the reply. I understand. As a older African American man. I remember my mom who family is from Georgia 🇬🇪. Tell me young girls and young women would have the same experiences in the south. That why she never trusted men or strange people are us. Especially my sisters. I am 63 . Its just like in the color purple 💜 these men was like this Especially from small town in the country where not too many people. Same. We as brothers protected our sisters. That was mandatory. 8 boys 3 girls cousins included too Especially females. This is why I am glad you brought this up. Its all over in other parts of the Diaspora as well. We have to protect our children Especially our girls and young boys. This is not only a Jamaican problem its Black problem for us and also a human problem. Thank you for your response. Peace and one its all ways a battle MY QUEEN
I totally understand your love hate relationship with Jamaicans, I apologise to you on behalf of my people for your unpleasant experiences you have had. However, if you take some time to understand the social and hstory of Jamaica you will understand us a bit more. I am Jamaican and some of us all we know is violence... The jamaican society has gotten too sexualised and I am not surprised about your experience as a child. Too many broken homes, which are usually led by a single parent (usualy a woman). The Jamaican culture in the 70's to what it is now now is influenced by so many factors... Historically we are strong-willed, agressive and crazy ha ha.. However, I strongly believe our behavious is strongly influenced by a number of factors! - Social Environment/Socialisation - Family Structure - Poverty - Personal Trauma (Loads of Jamaicans living in Garrisons, poor communities are just faced with constant violence) - PREJUDICE!!! We are mentally traumatised... There is strong colour prejudice on the island! Then there is classism... It will take some time for us to return to the 60's to early 80's when life in Jamaica was good!
You seem to be one of the few Jamaicans who seem to be self aware. But every nation has collective traumas and not every nation copes with it with aggressiveness. Jamaicans have to overcome their past and victim status and focus on their strength instead of trying to imitate white culture. You had role models in the past , e.g. bob Marley , markus Garvey etc transcending hardship into something new , inspiring and beautiful. White mans culture esp. the capitalistic one swapping from the US does no good to Jamaicans. The maroons fought their oppressors and only centuries later black ppl want to fit in and lick white mans ass. And I’m saying this as a white man ..)
So even those that are living abroad like the UK for example where I grew up, why is it that so many Jamaicans carry on this toxic mannerisms and behavior ? Growing up with them was hell fire for me and because of that, I have anxiety disorder
@@vincentalakija5515 You1st have to understand the communities these people are coming from., then yu would have a clear understanding of their behaviour. They take the same rachcet behaviour with them! When I moved to the UK to study in 2003, i had to wonder if all of the Jamaicn ghetto ppl in Englad! You heard them b4 you sw them! 1st time i went to Brixton, i really felt scared & I am from Kingston. Among the whole lot there are some decent hard working Jamaicans in the UK, I met a lot of them when i worked as a teller at JN in Birmingham!
@@Aoewu_225Broken homes start with women. They’re more than likely to file for divorce, take the children to relocate elsewhere. I’m tired of women vilifying men for everything. Learn to take responsibility and accountability.
As a Jamaican American myself, id say just enjoy your American birth right privileges and opportunities while embracing your heritage. Other races of people enjoy us way more than each other. And with that note, other people will make you financially wealthy. Hint, hint, tek the damn hint.
@@farhia711I felt that way about them growing up in London UK, they always had tensions with Africans all the time and usually unprovoked from their end
@@muahful I live in NY, its crawling with them and they are so rude and xenophobic, if you are not from one of their islands, they have a problem with you
Latin people are the same when they find out you don’t speak Spanish .. and I’m Jamaican.. we don’t even like each other sometimes so don’t take it personal..
Listen. This is the reality of life when it comes to American borns from ANYWHERE in the World. One you born outside of the home country, where ever that is, you're considered AMERICAN. Irish will tell you that, Italians will tell you that, Russian, Greeks, South Americans They'll all tell you that. I'm American born and when I was growing up in Jamaica I was the "YANKEE". Then when I came back to the USA I was the "JAMAICAN COCONUT". You can't win. Part of my family is from Chile and their parents had to leave when the political situation got hot. My cousins born here are all "GRINGOS" when they visit Chile. Yes. It sucks. But that's the way it is. The outside World doesn't understand American identity politics.
Well i have to make a comment again some groups Jamaicans would be one show no incentive to assimilate into the country they moved into by their own choice no one asked Jamaicans to move from their country to the U.S it was there choice the only ones that show that they even reside anywhere in the U.S would be those who live where the numbers are very small for whatever reason they are attracted to a state or region and live among large groups of Americans of ethnic backgrounds the rest they will congregate in large numbers buy or rent out all the homes as one American family after another flees from them pretty soon that part of town is like foreign country even going to the mcdonalds you wonder if your still in America no one sounds like their from any where in this country when you get to feeling in your own country its a terrible feeling
Sorry about your experience. But that’s the culture and that’s the accent . I remember when I started traveling I have to adapt to other countries attitude accent and the way they came across people .so it’s not just Jamaica ok
