dtgreene: Calling people who do something racist "racist" is not stereotyping for the same reason calling somebody who intentionally kills another person "a murderer" is not stereotyping.
So calling trannies child rapists isn't sterotyping because they want to talk sex with little kids?

plagren: Hey guys, what's going on in this thread? :-)
At the moment, two things:

1. There's a discussion about whether bigots should be allowed to be bigots on this forum.

2. A couple users are acting like trolls and hurling transphobic language at me.

dtgreene: (They're racist because the very act of voting for Trump is itself racist.)
And I thought people vote for Trump or Hillary or another candidate because they thought that particular individual would make the best president and help move the country in a better direction. Or at least was the least bad of a bunch of bad choices.

Apparently, voting the "wrong way" to the left is the same as being "racist".

At least thats what they told me.

They did it because people were attacking them.

PaterAlf: And why exactly do we need a political forum here? This is a serious question. Don't you think that there are better places to discuss politics? This is the forum of a company that sells computer games. Why do we have to discuss stuff like politics, religion and similar controversial stuff here? It's rather toxic and almos ever leads to arguments, insults and name-calling.
its called containment
political arguments will happen anyway
and with a sectioned of part of the forum people who want to engage in mud sling...political debate can do so while the ones who dont care for it can steer the hell away from it a lot more easier


it wont work
it never works
but its nice if a token effort is made

Voting for Trump is racist because Trump is racist. Or, at least, it is a statement that racism is not a dealbreaker, which I would argue is still racist.

(Also, do we *really* want a sexual predator leading the country?)

dtgreene: Calling people who do something racist "racist" is not stereotyping for the same reason calling somebody who intentionally kills another person "a murderer" is not stereotyping. Also, my only mention of mental disability in that post is in the negative; I never said anything about whether people who voted Trump are mentally disabled. (They're racist because the very act of voting for Trump is itself racist.)

Also, I could argue that the post in question isn't unprovoked, as it is a response to zeogold's post.
Not everyone who voted for Trump did so with racist motives. Calling all of them racists makes you a dick.
Voting for Trump in itself is not racist. Why do you think so, just because he himself is a racist?

I guess that makes everyone who voted for Obama a black person.

Habanerose: Like I said, probably should be a form of "containment subforum" with an "Enter at your own risk"-policy. With a big warning as a stickied thread.

With this, people will know what kind of stuff they step into, and it would be catering / pandering to neither side of extremism... also, it would prevent it from spilling over to the rest of the forum, as people posting political / controversial stuff outside of this subsection will have their thread moved there, along with a verbal warning (+ more on repeated infractions).

100% Agree with you on this... but this was mainly as suggestion as to "IF" GoG wants to keep political threads and such stuff in general despite them usually becoming a cesspit of cancer.

Never said they should keep it, quite the opposite... might even finally get rid of such *nice* subjects as Dtgreene and co.
