Synopsis : At the beginning of the round, Arkire started making several comments like "Straights are the reason for all of our problems" and whatnot. When the round started, I adminhelped, asking somebody to talk to him about it. I feel like, even though it isn't him bashing a minority, it's still bigotry by definition. The response I got from BlackrayJack was "I think he's being ironic/sarcastic". When I pointed out that the "It's just irony/sarcasm" excuse doesn't work in any other case, and that saying it's okay to use it when talking about one group of people is bigoted in and of itself, he just repeated that "It's just irony" and bubs joined in, telling me to go fuck myself. I feel like that was really poorly handled, and I do seriously feel like bigotry in any form isn't okay, and it shouldn't be okay to just wave it off as ironic or sarcasm.

It's the same thing as if someone called me a honky. Yes, it's a racial comment. Yes, it's IRONIC RACISM (he doesnt actually think less of me because im white, arki doesnt actually think straight people cause the lag). And yet nobody gives a fuck because white people aren't an oppressed group with a history of abuse and shitty behavior towards them.



It's like that louis CK bit where he gets upset because someone calls him a Cracker. "Oop, ruined my day. Takes me back to owning land and people". It's fucking absurd.



The no ironic racism rule refers to people saying things that are ACTUALLY RACIST or offensive but doing so in an ironic way. This is just silliness and fucking baffling.







also: anyone who is going to be encouraged to be actually racist or homophobic because of this is a dumbass anyway and I'd rather them out themselves as idiots now by saying dumb shit than let it happen later. Find Heiraphont

The point was made to me in the irc that it's hard to be bigoted if it's impossible to take offense. And I kind of agree, honestly. I see where your complaint is coming from, I don't think you should be called stupid or told to fuck off for it, since my snap reaction was similar. But, like I said originally, I can't be made offended for being called straight.

The no ironic racism rule refers to people saying things that are ACTUALLY RACIST or offensive but doing so in an ironic way. This is just silliness and fucking baffling. Firstly, Louis CK is the same guy who people use as an argument for why they should be allowed to say "Faggot" with the excuse that they didn't mean it that way. In fact, here's the link to that bit of his:



Secondly, you can't just say "Well being bigoted ironically toward this one group is okay because it's not actually being bigoted". The definition doesn't include the idea that bigotry isn't actually bigotry if it's targeted at somebody who is the majority. That's like saying it Apartheid wasn't racist because there were more black people in Africa than whites, so they were the majority. That's not how it works.

I mean it has nothing to do with irony, I am genuinely asking myself why this word is used at all.



I am also asking myself why the heck this arkire guy wouldn't be punished, while you decided to bash blackphoenix for reporting such an obvious breach of the rules; many people have been banned in the past for behaving like arkire, often very swiftly and very harshly, what the hell come on he wasn't even funny Find atomicthumbs
