Hello, I am a young African American teenager. So far recently I’ve been seeing a lot of negative comments on Twitter towards the black community. I understand most are trolls but others are just downright old white conservatives talking about “black people are playing victims” how “black people are not oppressed” and how “the N-word is just a word.” Of course, I wouldn’t expect them to understand, just as I don’t understand redneck culture lol. But, I don’t understand why they just won’t listen. They have it in their mind that some black people choose to be ignorant, they think that black-on-black crime is something that came from our culture. When it’s caused by the outcome of their ancestors. Black schools and neighborhoods are heavily underfunded, and kids know nothing but gangs, stealing, killing, etc. It's like they complain about these things, but when we tell them the reasons they want to brush us off. Another thing is they seem to have a problem with black people wanting their own space. Let’s be clear ever since Elon musk took over Twitter we’ve seen the use of the N-word hard er. Now, it’s a problem for us to get away from that. Why should we want to stay on social media with people not wanting to listen to us, and call us names, meanwhile using our culture? It’s disrespectful and cruel. What have we done to deserve these things?
If you want a place that's occupied by only one group of people, then you need to accept that others are going to want the same thing- would YOU be willing to accept being excluded? Would you be okay with seeing "whites only" signs at the doorways to the halls of power? If not, what makes you think you have the right to exclude others? Do you really think that refusing to grant a group special treatment based on historical grievances is "hating" them? That denying the self-perpetuating violent aspects of "black culture" by claiming "it's all your ancestors' fault" is somehow going to fix it?
It's not that they won't listen; it's that they won't believe without evidence. Black-on-black violence is HORRIFICALLY high in this country. Is it because black people are genetically inferior, or somehow incapable of maintaining basic decency in interacting with each other? Of course not. But it's just as ludicrous to say "it’s caused by the outcome of their ancestors". Complex problems have complex causes- usually more than one. This is no exception.
Let's consider a parallel case: the Irish. They, too, were first brought to what would become this country as slaves- indentured servants, rather than chattel, so it's not QUITE the same thing, but with the same lack of legal protections and the same social loathing even if/when they became freed. They, too, entered free society at the bottom rung when that slavery was outlawed, both regionally and then on a national scale. They, too, endured crushing poverty, open and wanton discrimination, and de-facto ghettoization as a result of housing policies. They, too, were seen by "proper" Americans as racially inferior, with a culture that was hopelessly backward and violent, that had nothing to recommend it except some good music, and enjoyed nothing more than fighting and killing one another. They, too, had neighborhoods that police just didn't go into, because it wasn't safe even for groups of armed men to walk around if they were carrying symbols of authority.
Today? Today they're just another group of "white people", alongside the Jews and the Asians. That didn't come from demanding the right to discriminate against others. It didn't come from insisting other people not use hurtful words. It didn't come from calling for massive government subsidies.
If you want equal treatment, you can't insist on special treatment, too. Calling for the same respect that everyone else gets while you demand preference is hypocritical in the extreme; no one's going to respect you if you do that. You're also looking in the wrong place if you expect to find it on Twitter. 140-character limits and anonymity are a sure recipe for blatant assholery, and constant demonstrations that these people get to you is only going to encourage them. Venture out into the real world more; you'll find it far less unpleasant.

What an ignorant thing to say.
So, in your estimation your people are completely guiltfree, can do no wrong unless it's someone elses fault, and anyone who dislikes you has no legitimate reason for doing so? That's ignorant.
First, tell me how peaceful Sub-Saharan African tribes were before the white man showed up? The answer is not at all, they practiced violent warfare, which included every atrocity you can imagine- including selling captives as slaves. You're not a peaceful people; so, drop that fantasy.
Black students do worse than white and Asian students regardless of where they are, or where they're from, because their IQ is lower (shown in every study, and standardized test), and increasingly they grow up in single family households- because black fathers typically abandon their kids. Oh, I'm guessing you have an excuse for this too? Cultural bias? Raven's progressive Matrix test doesn't even have words in it... and you still do worse.
White people have to deal with a disproportionate amount of interracial violence from black people; if anyone needs their own space for "safety" it's us. https://crime-data-explorer.app.cloud.gov/pages/explorer/crime/shr
Stat: Blacks committed 7,868 homicides in 2021, whites (despite having a population 4-5 times larger) only committed 4,893. Blacks also committed more violent crime of Every type.
So, do you know why people don't like black people? Because you're the dumbest person in the room, but the loudest. Anytime someone disagrees with you you're apt to engage in violence. Your people are disrespectful, destructive, and completely full of yourselves. And now with the woke movement, entitled little girls like you look for every opportunity to call anyone racist for anything they say you don't like, and you blame EVERY inconvenience in your life (including the weather) on racism.
That's why people hate black people.
Racists are not logical, nor are they reasonable people.
How can you reason with someone who has such a lack of commonsense that they actually believe 41.6 million black people all share 1 common brain, and all act and look alike.
You will never be able to understand or comprehend a person who is that far gone mentally.
There's many different reasons, but I feel like it's mainly because we cannot be controlled and we influence lots of people whether positively or negatively.. We have a lot of power, but unfortunately were not using it in the right ways.

So what do you think is the reason then? And by "our ancestors", do you mean White people?
I'm gonna speak from my own personal observations and experiences. We surrendered Haiti, South Africa and Zimbabwe. We formed towns and even an entire country for freed slaves. Look how they turned out. History has shown time and time again that black societies collapse when blacks don't have white people holding their hand. There's a reason the only successful black regions are the ones that chose to remain colonies and territories of European countries. Black people in the US still aren't so bad, aside from the victimhood complex, but blacks from Africa and the Caribbean are far worse. I see it in my travels. Every other minority group has an economic niche with a proper job, while blacks either just smoke weed or walk around the streets with crappy bracelets harassing tourists. I experienced this in Rome. No other racial group was so disrespectful and aggressive towards White tourists and Italian girls as the Africans. Meloni is right for wanting to deport their asses. They want people to respect them, yet they don't respect anyone. And black people everywhere have this mindset, that everyone should love them and kiss their asses no matter what, then they get angry when someone doesn't put up with their shit. Until the slave trade, blacks had no impact on the planet outside of Africa. Every other racial group build advanced cities, invented stuff and sailed, while the blacks just hunted and gathered. I see much have changed. Black people basically just live a day to day existence and aren't doing anything to improve their life. The only famous black people from Africa are war lords, revolutionaries and footballers. They want white people to leave them alone but at the same time, they can't survive without us sending them money. They need to get off their asses and start doing things for themselves instead of waiting on others to improve their lives. One of our tour guides on Grenada told us, "We want hotels, but we want you guys to come build them for us." Fuck you! Build them yourself! You can call me a racist, but the reality is that the quality of life significantly lowers the second black people move to a place in masses. And you kind of touched on it yourself. They want money the easy way so they join gangs, and they care more about their reputation on the street, because they will be more respected as a gang banger than as a college graduate. Black people have very poor work ethic and it's also the only race of people that refuse to adapt to White culture. There is a reason White and Asian countries are the most successful and black ones are the most shit holey. You want people to love you and respect you, stop gang banging and start doing something productive and beneficial to society.
Why do people hate the Jews? American Indians, etc?
You are never going to figure out why a racist hates you. A racist can't even tell you why they hate you. Or even how you can do something to make them stop hating you. And this is something have talked with "Black" people about for. . . forever.
Many "Black" people simply want to return racist hate. Returning racist hate does not do a thing for "Black" folks. It only gives power to racists. Racism has only one master.
So instead of wasting energy trying to understand why racists hate you, spend time trying to understand the folks who do not. Spend time trying to learn to like yourself, your history and your culture. Because going down the road of accepting race, then trying to explain racial behaviors to a racist is only going to end with you being confused and bewildered.
Racists have no rational thought process or ideology that can be understood by the human mind. A racist can hate "Black" people, without ever seeing a single "Black" person. Without ever knowing one intimately or interacting with one in any meaningful way. Because their beliefs are based upon a certain kind of superstition and mythology. You can't argue with them using facts and logic.
Anything on the internet you see about racism is just keyboard warriors talking trash. The thing is today we have slot of opportunity so who cares if we're hated or people try to block us. Despite the fact we should be able to live in any city or state we want because it's our RIGHT as an American, it's better to always move to areas where blacks are thriving. Why? Opportunities to become richer in wealth. Those who chose to live backwards in the past and see blacks as less then are always going to be the same broke people who never level up in life.
Just look when you grow up in life whose gonna be working the crappy McDonald's min wage jobs, whose gonna be stuck with abuncha kids and fat. Not YOU just them be confident about who you're and be an American and then wave it in their face. They will nothing to say. They will have no excuses to how you beat the odds but their still stuck in the same place they were before. The racist in the US are nothing but motivators in the end.
Also a lot of big issues in our community are the stupid leaders voted in that do not care and contribute to our poverty and crime rate and do nothing to fix it. They steal the money they refuse to increase police presence deny any federal help. They love watching our genocide of our people.
Beats the odds and nobody can tell you shit.
The short answer is socioeconomic issues and crime, along with a few people just being racist assholes. You're not going to end racism for as long as it's profitable (BLM's grifts and scams proved just how profitable playing the victim is.) And it's not a "black people issue," it's a financial issue, as rich black people and black Europeans don't have the same issues as the stereotypical "black American" demographic.
And it's not just stupid black people being conned into being victims; it's stupid women (feminists), stupid homosexuals ("The LGBT-etc Community"), it's extra-stupid Transpeople (The Trans Agenda), it's extremely stupid mentally ill people ("Non-Binary, Genderfluid, Pronoun people") and so on. Even straight white males who happen to be useless, mentally and physically weak beta cucks, have their own little hug box in the "male feminist ally" circles.
It's all a grift, and only the mentally weak and stupid, are allowed in the Cult of Wokeness. Not just black people who happen to be mentally weak and stupid, but ANYONE who is mentally weak, stupid, and willing to obey the Progressive propaganda, brainwashing, and indoctrination. Because promising you money, power, and free sh*t is kinda how cults work, you know? I'm not even going to mention religion here.
You know what happens when black people think for themselves? Like Kevin Samuels and Kanye West? They get called "Uncle Toms" and "race traitors," by all leftists but especially by other woke black people. No one is a more Useful Idiot than a woke, self-victimizing, leftist Useful Idiot.
You want to uplift black people? Stop being a woke, self-victimizing, leftist Useful Idiot for rich old corrupt people in power, like Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton.
You’d have to have a conversation with one over discord so he can be honest with you. This question was once heavily discussed on a politics server.
-racism from the black community. Yes, this is something not talked about but there is a lot of racism from black people which include some BBC discord servers. Don’t go there but there is a lot of anti white male hatred on those sites. It’s one of the reasons why white women are looked down upon nowadays because white women volunteer to be racist basically also.
-victim mentality. The truth is the world is not perfect and everyone can label themselves as a victim. We put Mexicans in cages for years. We bombed the heck out of middle eastern nations. Killed kids too. We bombed the heck out of Japan during world war 2.
But black people… if a white police officer makes a mistake then the cities go up in flames. All the looting and rioting was seen by everyone.
-America is hated because black people don’t let go of slavery. They constantly remind everyone about i even though they were captured by other Africans and sold to Europeans. Slavery was a global scale thing back then.
-whenever a black guy dates a white woman, his racism will often leak towards the girl. I’ll just give an example. I was on instagram and a girl with a black boyfriend constantly shares things that show black men as better than white, Hispanic and Asian men.
She shared a post about black men are actually better fathers than white or Hispanic men. I’ve seen more though but this is only a start. It’s not even a tip of an iceberg.Perhaps you are just getting the same hate back you put out there. Most people just want to get on with their own lives without being accused of being a racist just because they are white. Imagine if white people wanted their own space at the exclusion of others. Imagine white people blamed others for their problems.
Least guys like Kanye are open to honest dialogue.
this is overblown. people don't hate black people as much as you're suggesting.
they do present a poor image of themselves to the public. just listen to a typical rap music song. it's either about glorifying drugs and violence or it's about hookup culture and degrading women.
if there's anything holding the black community back, it's fatherlessness and it sure doesn't help when black women are choosing to marry big daddy government instead of black men.
Come back and see if you have the grit to ask that same question after you've done some investigation into 'redneck' culture, or into any other culture, illuminating you to more than the single degree of field of vision that your little diatribe is indicative of your being able to see.
I went easy on you because you're a youngster. Be grateful.
Twitter is filled with bots... The Democrats have to keep you on the plantation like a good little slave...

I hate nobody. I just hate many things that people of any colour do, like killing, raping, stealing, bias, etc. Everyone is ignorant, as knowledge has its limits, unlike imagination, which encircles the entire world. SOME people hate Blacks only because they’re biased.
Black people are responsible for a lot of crimes, and no not only in america, in africa too.
Blacks are cursed by God. The white man tried to save them from their evil, voodo-worshipping ways through the blessings of slavery, but blacks rebelled against that, as well. All they are good for is blaming, violence, stealing, fornicating, disturbing the peace, and being douchebags in general. Just listen to rap music.
They are correct, black people are not oppressed. And all of this nonsense about the N-word increasing on twitter is just that. There’s no proof that has happened.
Next time you black people protest when another black person shoots another. Stop playing the victim card and help your selves.
They don't. Currently Twitter is still full of Democrats. They're the party that started KKK. Just wait till it gets cleaned up by Elon musk.
Cry me a fucking river.
Black people hate each other tho
Simple, it’s jealousy,
