Are Young Black Men and Black Women Being Influenced to Hate Each Other?
I ask this because I notice that many movies, music videos, and media always feature interracial couples, there are also a large number of users I notice on the Internet and on this site, which claim to be black, then bash and insult each other. I notice that most users who do this tend to be under 25
While there is nothing wrong with dating a variety of people, why the hate between each other?
How can a black man hate on black women when a black woman birthed him and raised him? How can a black girl hate on black men when a black man caused her conception and helped raise her?
Why allow yourself to be influenced like that?
Thoughts and opinions.

@ Consistently: I know that you have numerous accts and that you post that same garbage you spew from all of them. You also just tried to add me as a contact on your other account, which I removed. Keep it up, and I will report you.
@ We Will All Die Next Year: Your answer is another example of exactly what I am talking about. The type of insulting put downs. Thank you for stopping by and proving me right. And no, "GIRLLLLFRAN" is NOT my language.
@ Videll: How are white people being blamed? I didn't even use the word "white" anywhere in my question. There are many black executive producers who are guilty of what I am talking about. This has absolutely nothing to do with blaming white people.

@ Free to Be: Don't you realize you are just as guilty of stereotyping black men as you claim they are? If you date a white or Latin guy who is mean to you are you going to stereotype all of them as well, or is that for black guys only?
Don't be guilty of becoming what you dislike in someone else.

I won't be influenced. I'll never dislike my people (blacks). As a matter of fact, I'll never hate anyone who don't make me. There was this man at school that said that people want to keep us divided so that we can become extinct. If they can get blacks to turn on each other, we won't reproduce anymore and plus black men in the hood kill each other just about every day. They're scared because more and more blacks are trying to succeed and think that they're losing power. I don't know how much truth it is to that, but that's what he was talking. It was deep, but I try not to think on negative stuff.
If you target the lion turn him into a domesticated cat he will loose his instinct as a protector of the family if you train the lioness and teach her how to act as a lion. Why do she need the lion around.
Then at the same note if you promote an Addiction or Amy sort in the lion's Clan and teach them how to act like dogs. Then technically theyve become dogs. teach a group that they Are the same as another then they will never agree. To nothing.
If you educate a group or kids that because Your black and this group over here not black even though they are just light skined and you keep telling them their white not black them they will believe this and the argument begin to take shape that your lesser than I.
Impower a child with better programs and take from another with no programs but keep him lower. Give the other child purpose abuse the other yet tell the educated one this other is lazy and you've then created divisions. Of conflicts. These are historical facts of how black people was turned against each other, only to eradicate the blk communities n families which was the back bone of the American black fsmily, community and nation the black family was to strong for the WHITE RACIST NOTE RACIST not to enclude all white people only a group was this way nit all.
Well. There is divide and conquer. But because I know this I do better. Not everyone takes time out to think about these things or teach them or talk about them with their children as it has been done in my house ever since I was young.
I think the interracial things we see now is an attempt to bring people and tolerance closer and together, but I see this because of my own mind set, positive, hopeful, full of faith that everyone will be color blind.
Its the minds of the people who use the color of the skin as to why they are down that will see this and it could very well make hate with each other. So it is possible but I tell you this, they wont reach me!
I love my dark skin and I like dark skin men even fell in love with a couple but it was the men, not the skin that I love about any man I date. I guess looking in my family all the dark men kinda just makes me notice a lighter guy more and became a preference but like I said before, I dated way more deep dark men in my life and it was good. There is good and bad in every skin tone, race and nationality.
Yes, to an extent. I wouldn't use the word "hate on". I think that's a term a lot of people use when they can't expand their vocabulary. Just because someone doesn't like you or isn't pleased or impressed with you, doesn't automatically mean they're hating on you.
I'm a black girl who is kind of being pulled into reverse stereotyping. I'm aware of it. Most black men have made me feel less desirable and less acceptable because of my looks. The looks of their mothers and ancestors. So, now I strictly date outside of my race. I've realized that, as sad as it is, most guys who appreciate Black beauty are not even black. Why wait around for the black man who is usually brainwashed by media to think I'm beautiful and have an interest in me when the White guy or Latino, or Arab over there is owlin me!!? I probably will not date a black guy unless he's Canadian or British. I don't hate on them, I've just given up on them. Not to mention, a lot of black guys are having a ton of kids very young, conform to stupid stereotypes that decrease the intelligence and self respect of black people, and they just overall suck.
Only online if you ask my, I always hearing all these things about black men and women hating each other, but in real life I really do not see this at all, most black people I see are dating/married to other blacks. @Consistently- I put down black men? Um the last time I checked the father that i respect and love IS a black man. Stfu, because you seem to be the only insecure one right now. Don't bring up stereotyping when you are doing it yourself.
100% black both my parents are black and still in love after 31 years.
