Quote HistoryQuoted: it isn't. I use it all the time. I was referring to them running to whomever they chose to complain about the site. Not trying to be a dick here. Really. But this is what always gets me with this sort of thing. By every metric, Karen when used that way is specifically a term used to degrade someone based on their skin color. And you saying “no it isn’t” flys in the face of every definition of it. Just to understand, as this isn’t the free world here and I get that….. but are the mods generally the arbiters of what words are to mean? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Striker has posted multiple times with glee that the “GD playground is closed” Take that for what you will, trolls will continue to troll while the vast majority of the member ship continues to try to follow the written and unwritten, enforced and unenforced COC. “You can’t call savage people savages because I made some intentional bait posts and have anecdotal evidence that supports the bias I already had”  Or should is just say “lol”? To claim you know when someone has racism in their heart when you literally have no clue if that’s true or not is exactly what sooooo many people are fucking sick of. Phrase something with just the wrong little word or order of words and you’ve gone from dismissing something that is stupid to “ That’s a dog whistle to muh Racists” Give me a fucking break. Agreed, If a pack of feral dogs attacks someone, and you call them feral you presumably aren’t labeling all dogs as such. I suppose it’s still safe to call people assholes. |

Sounds good but where does it end? I have as much if not more disdain for white trash meth heads as any other racial group’s criminal scum. Does using the term “white trash” mean I think that about all white people? No, of course not. So if I call a group of black teens who beat a white person at a gas station or fast food restaurant “feral blacks”, does that mean I think that of all black people? I’ve never used that term, just call them thugs or criminal scum, which describes a behavior, how long before that’s not allowed?

Are we allowed to post sweeping generalizations about groups if they’re positive? “As a final note, if someone posts something that is over the line, and you quote it and/or indicate your agreement with it, you will receive the same sanction as them.” lol |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Read what he typed on the page. Words have meanings. It reads ANY GROUP OF PEOPLE ETA And I know it means any group and not races of people because I've been warned about talking about the Taliban in one instance and asking if a person that stole a vehicle in South Texas was a Mexican. I'll point out that none of those racist warnings I got were for races of people. You are lying your fucking asses off pretending this shit is just about the poor poor black people. You don't have freedom of speech where you are from and neither do half the mods so it's no wonder you guys are confused. Is Mexican racist? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: and groups of people aren't a race.. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Read what he typed on the page. Words have meanings. It reads ANY GROUP OF PEOPLE How do you feel about generalizations about non native born Americans? Because it is interesting that it is the non native born American staff who are leading this campaign. That is you and DK-Prof. I think many members would agree with the statement that non native born Americans tend to be overly sensitive. And, to the crux of the issue: do most of the members who you are labeling as racist actually attack others based on race? Or are they attacking a culture that they believe is harmful to our country and way of life? As you just wrote, a group is not racist. |

I do understand that substituting Amish for the n-word is pretty blatant which word is actually intended. Whatever happens I really hope this isn't the beginning of overmoderation. If you're going to err, please do so on the side of undermoderation. |
