Is Rob’s use of racist language okay?

If you are referring to me as well:

I get along with Busybody, but I've admonished him countless of times for his use of "N" slurs or posting of monkey pictures.

Whereas You never asked Rob to stop his slurs, but when one of your own starts a thread to do that, you pull the "but Busybody" card.

And fuck off for excusing and enabling Rob's racism, you disingenuous racist pos.

Que calling WE disingenuous. That’s rich.
 
I know that your intention wasn't to excuse Rob (just to explain how you see his mind works), but it was phrased vaguely and it came across the wrong way.


In another line:
BotanyBoy is an anarchist - I find this trait to be endearing, others get pissed off.
And he triggers some people. We agree on that.
But being called "gook" non-stop isn't about Rob being impulsive or triggered - it's deliberate, well planned racism. Just like BB's.

I'm not an anarchist......I'm a liberal.

Anarchist = no government authority.
Liberal = minimal necessary government authority to protect/enhance individual liberty.

It would be just great if we all agreed - from now on - to make racial slurs a no-no.

Nah.....free speech for all, I wan't to know how exactly who the racists are. ;)
 
The board’s dumbest racist, alt play-by-play commentator, and judgemental cunt, haughty hashie, still thinks he can influence the makeup of the GB. :D



As someone already pointed out, if your goal is to troll, debate, argue, or mock Botany Boy, he provides plenty of material one could use without needing to resort to the ‘gook’ and Asian slurs.

The same applies to anyone, really. Racial slurs are generally used to hurt and dehumanize, and reflect poorly on those who make them.
Any point they are trying to make, any argument they are putting forth, diminishes in strength, or is just ignored completely because of the slur.
 
Yes, I think that I jumped to an unfair conclusion because of one thread where you made the "maybe they just don't like you" comment.

Cowslinger and CarnalFlower are the ones who collude with Rob, and encourage his racial slurs.

Thank you.

I can only speak for myself...If I dont like a person...in real life or online...it is because of comments they made. Their race...their sex...has nothing to do with that. I have found, what goes around comes around. If i am an ass towards someone, why would I expect them to treat me as a friend?

I have stopped confronting anonymous people on their racist diatribes. Now...in real life...you want to be my friend? I will call bullshit...and if you dont change...you are gone. I have no patience. This is even true for my own family. My blood isnt that thick.
 
Will there be separate threads for each of the odious rhetorical practices in Rob's basket of deplorable behaviors, or are we limiting ourselves to his overt, racist tropes and epithets for this particular decade?

You were crankin' out a "Get mah fainting couch! Rob did THIS!" thread pretty regularly for a while there, back when you appointed yourself "board sheriff".

Funny thing, that.......all those poor beleaguered pisters you swore a blood oath to protect (Ishmael, Miles, AJ, JamesBJohnson, Vetteman, etc) have all been banhammered or died (come to think of it, you were banhamered too!).

....and yet, here I am. Almost four years since you claimed to have devoted your existence here to getting me banned.

I'm still standing.
 
For the record, I was calling him Bonsai, Kamikaze and a slant-eyed way long ago not soon after experiencing his presence on the Politics Board, before I knew who the hell Rob was, and I don't feel the least bad about it. Same reason I don't feel bad calling Kantarri a sad Tranny.

Wait, what? Kantarii is sad? What happened to him/her?

Sad Tranny, huh? You really are as ignorant as I think you are, not that you would understand the difference between a cross dresser and a tranny. So carry on. It’s quite amusing that you actually think the word should be insulting to me. Might as well call me a “racial” slur, too. It would be about as effective and humorous as calling AOC a black bitch.

After all these years, you're still greatly overestimating the amount of time I ever spend thinking about you.

Aww, Emmie.
Just because I think you have a low IQ and are below me in terms of (formal and autodidactic) education,
doesn't mean that I think the same about other Litsters.

But your butthurt and intermittent attempts at getting my attention are acknowledged.
Just like your alts Shadwell & al, who used to call me paki or gipsy out of spite.

I don't have you on ignore; I'm no longer distressed as I used to be in the past, 85. I just find you deeply amusing.
 
I guess with Admin. clamping down on reposting pictures :rose:
people like 85, Lance (as much as I like him otherwise) and Luk's attack alts
lost their leverage and power over female posters.

The irony is not lost. Hash has made the same allegations year after year. We are all bad motherfuckers for not calling out Rob when basically the same post from BB gets giggles and unicorns.

I do not condone. Years ago I asked Rob to give it a break, he had reasons to continue down the same path. So be it until it crosses Lit lines and the poster is removed.

Don't post or quote what you do not believe in. Right now I believe I will have another cup of coffee.
