See, the wonderful thing about the 'real world' is that you don't have to hear people being bigoted all the time (which by the way is a social experience). Mind blown, right?

Yeah, when I was running a guild in WoW, I had a zero tolerance policy for racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. Some of these kids would let it slip once, I'd tell them if they say it again, they're gone. A few chose to stay, a few chose to leave. Either way, we kept a clean, hate-free house in that guild, and were better…

Thank you. People don't seem to understand that taking the jaded, cynical, "nothing I can do," attitude, is just as bad. Being complacent is not not choosing a side.

Always so annoyed when people say something along the lines of 'use mute'. That isn't the point. It would be like telling someone to move to San Francisco if they're fed up with rampant homophobia, or, going back further, to go north if you don't want to deal with blatant racism.

No. But are you surprised at that reaction? If black people would just stop being black, we wouldn't have to worry about racism!

Ok, people who are saying you could just mute people... should you really *have* to?

Egging them on by telling them that he's recording their stupidity? That sounds like the "she egged them to rape her because she wore suggestive clothing" argument reskinned.
