What Did I Do To You?

Question

I asked a second ago about us uplifting ourselves as a black people.

I said that we need to learn to love eachother and support one another and that we may be the source of our problems now.

I said we may be keeping ourselves down now. I said that we can overcome whatever is thrown at us but we have to look within ourselves.

I was reported! Am I doing something wrong? Are my questions hitting a nerve? OMG I thought this was section to talk about things that affect cultural groups.

I wanted to ask people good questions and not things like "Am I White?" or "Why do they stink?"

I want to know if I am making people mad or something-If I am stepping on toes I would like to know why.

I will remember all of your suggestions the next time I post a question. Thanks.

Answer 1

Unfortunately some people in the section only like the troll related questions, so any questions that make sense aren't wanted here.

Answer 2

I don't think that is a bad question, but the thing is don't you think that you should be sharing that speech with all humans not just your race? Why do you need to only uplift eachother. If we as a human race lifted up each other in support, then we would have a lot less problems with racism. Your statement is portraying that you as a black race are fighting a fight against all other races. I just want to add that the strength of us as a people will come from those who are not making assumptions such as yours. If you want people to see no color lines then you have to have that same mentality.

Answer 3

Yeah its the trolls at it again. They are always going on about how black ppl are poor & struggling bc we are all lacking morals, lazy, un-intelligent etc., so I asked then "why are there still poor white ppl? ". I went on to add that afirmative action programs & race based scholarships have only existed for 50yrs or less, so how come poor whites hadn't made it yet since they lack the mental & physical flaws that we supposedly have (& if they don't have them why are there white drug abusers, child molesters, corrupt corp. execs, murderers etc). I also said AA have helped more white women than blacks & that there are also ethnic based scholarships for whites, including ones to attend black universities. The question stayed up a few days then it was reported for "being neither a question nor answer"-LOL. I guess they couldn't deal with what I was saying.

Answer 4

The question you speak of, sounds a little rude....
sounds like you're generalizing a tad bit to me and some people may find it offensive.

but..... the longer you stay on this forum, the sooner you'll get over being reported and stuff like that.

Word of advice: Do not take it personal. some people on here are just stupid.

Answer 5

You violated the question and answer format, your question was just to voice your own opinion rather than to seek knowledge. It was a statement in question form, that's against the rules.

Answer 6

I don't know, but I'm really pissed off! Lol. I spent a good fifteen minutes writing out a really long response to your question and when I hit the "send" button or whatever it said that your question had been deleted! AAHHH!!! Lol. I should have saved it just in case, but ah well.

Answer 7

i agree with chucklig and im black.
black people can be their own worst enemy. i dont see why ur question was deleted, one time i asked do u think im too skinny and it was deleted!

Answer 8

You good with me so dont worry.

Answer 9

Appeal the deletion of your question. Unless it really did violate the Community Guidelines, it will most likely be reposted.

Answer 10
