Youtube and Hate


There are a lot of haters on Youtube these days. I think it’s pathetic for people to hide behind a computer to spew all their evil thoughts. Honestly if you are going to hate on people you should have the guts to go face to face and tell them.

It seems a lot of people have a problem with interracial relationships. I don’t understand where people get all their hate from. You should not just repeat the things your parents tell you. You should get your own experiences and make up your mind from that. People need to stop teaching their children to hate.

Just because an adult has a certain point of view, does not mean that a child should carry those same views, and the adults should not make the children carry those views. Remember what Khalil Gibran said in ‘The Prophet’ “your kids do not belong to you” so let them make up their own minds.



As for the young people with all the hate in them, shame on you. It’s okay to love your race and your heritage. That is a personal decision that you have made, but you shouldn’t look down on someone who happens to date outside of his or her race. Individuals will select mates according to their preferences, so if a white woman happens to prefer a black guy, then she will date a black guy, and it a black woman happens to prefer a white guy, then that is who she will date. Preference does not always equal exclusivity, so it does not mean that these women will never date their own race.

I think it is tragically sad that people will use Youtube as a way to spread hate, but I give kudos to those who will stand on their own ground and refuse to be deterred by the negative voices out there.
