How come every time African American's respond to a negative statement they feel they have to justify about their race on Yahoo! Answer's comes up they always get a thumbs down??? Just curious...

Yahoo seems to attract some of the nastiest people I have ever seen. I have lived a long time and have not seen the hate and prejudice I see here...is it the anonymity of the Internet that encourages responses I see here? If so, the answerers should really be ashamed of themselves for being hurtful. I am often blunt to a fault, but I never write anything that is purposefully hurtful. I do get my share of email raising hell with me for the answer I gave the asker...my answer didn't agree with what they wanted to hear. Such is life.
There is NO justifiable excuse for much of what I see here. The worst answers seem to come from the most pitiful excuses for people...

nicely I see Yahoo solutions as a place to the two ask a question hoping for reliable solutions... Or a place to respond to questions hoping you gave a astonishing reaction... Now in a communicate room, you communicate approximately something and each little thing, no longer purely a question asked... You write to individuals in real time and respond to what they are speaking approximately... there is not any real subject count of verbal replace... yet you're speaking to a minimum of one yet another on the comparable time and not waiting on an answer like in Yahoo...

I dont pay attention to the picture colour or race- JUST THE ANSWER - i think you may be reading into this too much, which is ridiculous - and which annoys me, an avator is no means accurate - i am of mixed parentage but you guys dont know if im white or black or a bit inbetween, i dont believe i get thumbs up just because of my colour or thumbs down. anyone who thinks they get thumbs down because of the colour of their avator needs to lose the chip on their shoulder..........

Racism is alive and well as long as cowards can hide behind cyber-anonymity. Yahoo answers gives one better insight into real race relations..still pretty dismal.

you're not exactly dealing with the cre'me dela cre'me of intelligence here on yahoo questions- rampant ignorance is to be expected, so no surprises there! have you ever noticed how questions concerning race tend to generate a considerable amount of responses?
