For me? Increase donations to ACLU, SPLC and others, and either write in Sanders or vote green out of spite alone.

The last time I heard the phrase "African-American" outside of a census report was a white girl trying to tell another white girl that it was appropriate to call her Kenyan friend an "African-American", so at this point it sets off a few red flags. 

I’m not impressed by AOC’s “I just cruised through Hot Topic for some merch” list, myself.

If it wasn’t clear, I know. I want more people to suffer those exact consequences.

That's a reason to develop cheaper forms of moderation, not a reason to not bother moderating. 

No! Freedom of speech means he should, nay, MUST be free to share his honest and reasonable opinions. Something something “you’re the real racists” something something “what about black on black crime”. After all, if WE can say it, why shouldn’t they? And such. 

I recommend Cackling at this stage.

Bless your kind probably-not-Midwestern-or-southern heart.

“As I had no sign of my own, it was handed to me by another protester and a photographer took the picture before I considered the racist implications”

Boy, that slope sure is slippery, ain’t it?

But the phrase she used was “a lot of gamers”, so what has that to do with the price of tea in China? 

True. And in my experience, the venn diagram of people who play at white supremacy and are actually white supremacists in their core beliefs is a circle.

Claiming that someone has power does not mean that they are above any laws, let alone all of them.

This thread was started when you asked for an explanation on how voice chat could be unfair. I don’t see why you would ask that if you knew that sometimes use of voice chat leads to specific harassment people don’t want to deal with along racial and gender lines, and thus they opt out of voice chat where others do not…

I have don’t have reason to assume you know this obvious thing, or even that it’s obvious, when this thread suggests otherwise.

No it isn’t. One person on a council saying “this is something we should consider” isn’t worthy of fucking death threats and doxxing no matter what you think they’re going to do with that statement. Hell, the entire council _doing that thing_ isn’t worthy of that.

Good for you, I suppose. But the fact remains that a lot of people just decide they don’t want to deal with that.

That is seriously not the same, though. "suck on my nuts" isn't "you are subhuman, and you shouldn't be here". 

So here’s my read: I don’t use voice chat unless I’m playing with very close friends and those friends alone. With any other group I don’t use it because I don’t need to be called a porch monkey while relaxing after work and such.
