Right, another corollary - racism is ok as long as you’re part of that race. Self-hatred’s fine.
Sure why not.
I like me.
Sucks to be you, I guess?
It does suck, yeah, but only in so much that unlike you, I don’t share the same politics with the powers that be and thus don’t have the same amount of immunity you do for dropping homophobic slurs.
Suuuure.
Act like this isn’t SRK.
Faggot was Valaris’s most typed word.
I didn’t use it as a slur.
You did.
If we were to count the number posters on SRK who fall into the queer category, they’d far out-number the normies.
Queer IS SRK.
Seems okay to me,
Next?
Yeah, let’s not act like people don’t get banned from here for using it or anything…
09 rules.

Wow.
Just…wow.
It is okay to be proud of your ethnicity.
But having this whole “white people are the victims” mentality is just on par with those “white genocide” nutbags
…it’s like Ted is throwing in the towel.
Ethnic pride is stupid, no good can come of it. Cultural pride is better because it’s decoupled from race and anyone can choose to adopt a different culture.
What nonsense.
Cultural pride is the original racism.
Also:
Please do parse that hair’s breadth between ethnic pride and cultural pride.
hmm…
How can you have it so backwards? White/Black/Brown pride is stupid. Take pride in your self as an individual, in your achievements and skill. Taking pride in the color of your skin is literally what leads to Nazism.
Anyone can take pride in being an American regardless of race, religion, color, and creed as long as you agree to accept certain cultural norms.
If you’re unable to discern any difference between ongoing toxic crazy and a non-ongoing issue from a non-crazy person, you’re thick. Plus or minus some understandable concern on my part that the poster you’re referring to was going to murder somebody via wildly posting while driving.
Not the right thread for this discussion, but you kinda need to balance a super incestuous colony of people with an ability to grow that community. Generally speaking, the rule is - is this kind of shit the kind of shit that is going to needlessly drive people away? Example above: eh, lame. Previous examples Cynt referred to: drove people away. It was noted not-on-SRK by not me that nobody wanted to deal with the posters Cynt is referring to because they’re toxic idiots. It’s 2018: nobody needs to coddle that crazy.
A brief note as regards current moderation: the new tools are crazy different than anything we’ve ever had before. Things will be handled differently because they have to be. Thankfully the spam filter is great (finally!).
Curious as to what’s meant by that? I thought generally speaking people had the back of the people they supported before the accusation, as seen with pretty much every other accuser ever. Fun times online as people recount shit like “my stepdad raped me and I told my mom and my family and they accused me of lying because I hated him.” We don’t have a meaningful way to handle sexual assault accusations in society outside of maaaaybe the criminal justice system so the responses are out of whack and unpredictable. Having policies in place to treat everybody fairly would be great, but I don’t know how the fuck you get there.
I think the real problem with Kavanaugh in a sensible world is Judge’s book talking about getting black out drunk with “Bart Kavanaugh”. That kinda throws everything in a weird light.
edit: That’s funny, those “random conservatives” were hardcore Republican:
Yeah, sorry, I did a poor job of explaining there, but the second tweet I quoted was the one from the person who called CNN out on their choice of who to interview.
I do not have it backwards.
Read history.
Also read a dictionary.
Ethnic is a near synonym of cultural - with cultural have the greater breadth, possibly being a category above i.e. it is arguable that ethnic fits within the bounds of cultural.
Race as we know it today, is a product of Christian “ideals” “justifying” chattel slavery.
