Sister2Sister: Haters of OTV

They Be Hating...

It was brought to the attention of "The Verge" that there is a group of Black Women (Sister2Sister) who are senselessly hating of the life and times of the most admirable DPM and his journey "On the Verge..."
Perhaps they aren't courageous enuff to get by their own issues of Black men, but to interpret the satire, opinions, and commentary of DPM as "dedicating a site to why sista's ain't good enough?" And then to go on to say that, "This is why we will never be respected by other races, we don't even like or respect ourselves."...is rethikulous!

These and other words of theirs are far from the truth, mission, healing and experience of OTV. I can also add that during the life and walk of Deepium on OTV he was fortunate enough to encounter a variety of Beautiful Black Women who respected his stance, expression and honesty.

To say that OTV is a site that:

"is about a bunch of angry black men hating on angry black women. its a vicious cycle rooted in mistrust and societal pressures on our race. its really sad...why cant there be a sight for bm and bw to express their feelings instead of saying they are "on the verge". that shows a lot of immaturity imo. im just saying, if a black man isn't strong enough to hold his black "sista" down, then we don't need him..." (dahh..)

is purely Pathiggalous  and far from the truth. 

As the Admin of OTV, I'm almost positive that they were not literate enuff to read the site and comprehend it's mssion of Self & Black Love.

In other light, it's rather sad to see a group of Black women dedicating their time to bashing Brothas from whatever angle they can.

wow, just as you were gonna shut things down you became famous!!!

When I saw the title of the blog I was like wtf, then I read, and this is one of my favorite spots. I love the honesty, sarcasm and the bond that has been form. To bad you are closing down the shop, but much deserved happiness to you.

DPM is dead. But THE VERGE will live on. Thanks for checking and stay tuned.

Angry, bitter black women are in need of comfort, understanding, compassion and healing.
(black men, too - but I'm trying to stay on track here..)

U know I (we) gotta show compassion for women (anyone) in pain, but on that note, I will say:

Sister2Sister: Reading is fundamental. READ, then blast if u feel it's warranted.

But uhh....the Verge is for the open minded and courageous. Er'body aint gon' qualify.....

On a more foolish note, that message board was rife with typos, grammatical errors, sentence fragments, and flagrant use of subject/verb disagreement....made it too hard for me to concentrate...

So fuck it.

I'll spar all night long, even with a republican right wing redneck - long as she/he can spell...But that shit??? Sheesh...

for reals? Gosh darn too much time on their hands and yes they didn't read it all.

I ain't even gonna lie.The first time I ran across your blog, I read the title, cursed you to hell and stepped...lol.I didn't even take the time to read it beacause I had seen all I needed to see.

Eventually at some point, I found myself here again and decided to read what this "ignant ass knee-gro had to say". It was then that I realized thet you were not the devil I had assumed you were...lol

I have since read every post on this site and it has become one of a only a handful of blogs I visit everyday.

The problem the sistas on sister2sister are having is the same problem I and probably many other sistas had.We read the title and stepped.

You know that title has probably cost you a lot of possible fans.

The title acts as a filter. For instance you returned. In no way did the most admirable DPM erect "The Verge" to attract a cliche crowd of comments and readers. It's my guess that the constructed audience of OTV consist of the intellectually bold, honest and open-minded folk. In other words: THE ELITE.

On behalf of DPM I want to thank you for ushering dpm beyond "The Verge" and into a place of emotional and spiritual peace.

Interestingly enuff the world seems to be watching. OTV gets anywhere between 300-600+ hits a day--averaging around 400. Who woulda' thunk it?

Jumping to conclusions and snap judgements are for ignorant folks.

If they had an issue with your site, they could have come on and asked you to clarify what the intent was behind your writing.

Being that they are a publication, they should have followed the imminent rule of journalism....check your facts.

DPM they are under ASSumption that the site is about that. probably read a post or two and ran with it. *smh* reading is fundamental by by the grammer and spell check on that thread alone...I don't think they can spell much less read LOL
