It's about time we keep it real.
Lately a lot of people have been curious as to why I have not been posting as often as I usually do and I'm here to explain.
Vacation, Being Scammed,Racism,Snakes & Fakes.HOLA steemians, @sirlunchthehost here.
Personal Stuff
If you have been following what vlogs I have been putting out you probably know that I have been traveling and building not just my brand, but the Steemit and ADSactly Brand as well. For the most part building has been fun and exciting, traveling and spreading blockchain knowledge is a dream of mine, but as we all know dreams are not without their own issues.
" You have to live the dream, you have to eat the dream...You have to see the dream when no one else see's the dream"
Normally I would outline the Projects I'm currently working on and the people I'm involved with, but this time things will be a little different.
It's about time I pave a different path for the people behind me coming after.
As much as I love the Blockchain and its people + the chances it has brought me, I have to keep it real.
Problems
The real reason why I've been MIA is because of some real issues I have been facing on the Blockchain like:
Racism
The interesting part about Racism is that you experience it in different forms. Not only have i experienced Racism by people who are not my own skin color, but also by people who identify with me by color and culture.
Being Scammed
Sometimes you get told a few things and shown even more and thats when you lose everything.
Wins & Losses
Some back stabbing
As normal and always when you trust people, you will get betrayed.
Because I love the Blockchain as much as I do.. I feel obligated to point some of this shit out.. And damn I'm usually lazy, but on these topics and issues I can't be. As a steemian trying to Pave the way for all others who want to vlog and more I kinda have to get off my ass.
Always like what you and @rondonson were doing. Didn't know the whole plan...But my third eye see's the most. There's a lot of funny style people disguised as serious. Re-group, Re-think, Re-connect with the real ones.
We are all family here, brothers and sister who help each other growing up with no boundaries. Those fake people, racist and scammer has no room here.
Important to recognize racism can go multiple ways. Boiling thinfs down to the xolor of anyones skin...is ridiculous.
Sorry to hear about it man.
Hey I checked out those accounts who have been downvoting you, they seem like abandoned but some of them have quite a high reputation. I wonder if Bernie or someone bought them when people left Steem?
Damn, what happened?
Idiots happened. No worries, I'll explain things in the coming days.
I told you this a long time ago... be careful. Now you probably see what I've been dealing with and why I made changes... don't let it get to you. As I said.. this is only a resource among several, to help you build an audience on the internet. Keep your head up
The internet is filthy, we need filter on reputation or something and don't let negative people ruin our lives.
Can someone explain to me what happened .?
There are some issues that need to become open topics on the platform, Im merely getting some of the conversations started because i have experienced a few things here on our wonderful chain.

You didn't give any facts. Just generalized things.
"Shown evidence", what is the evidence?
"Who was racist?"
You managed to talk about the issue but not give any details. It's the details we want.... otherwise new victims will be next.
yeah this shit needs to be talked about!
unfortunately.. it won't be talked about in public like this... I agree, it should
The last days i've been reading a lot about these kind of issues happening to quite some people man! This is really sad to read actually, even here we got so many idiots trying to hurt others.
Hope you get out of it and come back stronger man!
Snakes are really hiding behind freedom of speech on here, and the lack of physical consequences. Yea people are free to say what they want, but there are consequences to every action. But since this is the internet, people feel bold because of the lack of physical consequence. Most of these people don't even know one black person personally. They disregard history because of guilt and the illusion of things changing. They feel like they would lose if things were made equal. I would never say anything to anyone online that I wouldnt say to their face. They are cowards.

Don't stop what you're doing only because of what you feel now. Take a breather and come back stronger.
Agree with yours youApology to EVERYONE who decided that being a SCAMMER,RACIST,SNAKE, & FAKE was going to knock me. I'm not a nigger, I'm @sirlunchthehost, and I'm sorry to those who decided to piss me off.
I am totally lost but I hope all is well now.
Whouha respect.. Stay strong !

I know about what you are talking about!
Me as a black guy made similiar experinces.
But haters gonna always be.
I don't know you well, but I want to encourage you not to stop!
Do what is on your heart follow your passion.
yes the black experience is a unique but shared experience; keep moving forward and doing what you do -
Meanwhile, I get more bothered by 'racism from non-black people' --- as historically they demonstrate the ability to 'harm' black people. I wrote about something I Saw on TV live this morning; included tweets - and in came racist white supremacists, telling me to 'be quiet' and 'not speak'
Well, everyone meets douche bags here and there. F em and move on, focus on the good people
Oooh Kill em! haha <3 stay up bud haters/scammers gonna hate/scam!
I enjoyed reading the article.I look forward to seeing you.I envy you for writing a wonderful article.
@sirlunchthehost here's a guy that truly understands you lmao
The struggle is real. :-)
respect for your art man and your word. peace
I don't notice color unless my color is pointed out, I am sorry you have experienced this (hugs)....
It is raining scams on the blockchain right now.
I've definitely noticed a strong subsect of racism out here. Obviously trust is always a difficult situation and many of us struggle on a variety of levels.
Hopefully, you keep plugging away and blazing that trail for those of us coming after you here in teh blockchain world. Or maybe the #blackchain in this case.
Stay strong man, and I hope to learn more.

The internet, people, the world. Dangerous place for persons trying to change the current order...
Knowing what I do about you in your personal multiple facets, I can say that I am proud that your following through,not that
I doubted. I wasn't sure how you would begin or when but I'm behind you.
People are hard wired to be selfish and spiteful to gain personal abundance, despite the cost to others. They are also really brave when they are hiding behind a keyboard! Don't let them get to you, stay true to yourself and you will attract the right people towards you too. I hope you haven't allowed them to get in the way of your dreams :)

That sucks my friend! Don't put up with sheeiiit! Love ya g!
In a growing community such as this there's bound to be elements out there to exploit and degrade other people. It's okay to face these challenges and grow to overcome and avoid them later on.
💯
If you have been scammed in a situation related to the blockchain and steemit it might make sense to share a bit more details and to expose the scammer so he can face some blowback and at least to protect others from falling for the same scheme or person.
supper bro.....your post is always the best.....
