    Does Floridian count as a race? Because Floridians are dumb as fuck and should probably be genocided off the face of the planet by Spanish-named hurricanes created by Obama's weather machine funded by George Soros and NPR.

    But I wouldn't dare race bait in the Red Room...

    John is yet again lying and trolling; this time outside of the red room. Will the mods actually enforce the rules against him or not?

    I am neither lying nor trolling here. Everything I said can be backed up, too. Are you honestly unaware of the racist things you say? All I can figure is you must black out when you go on a racist rant.

    It's uncomfortable to say this, because I want to see the best in people who doubtless all mean well in their different ways, but @Dinner you do seem, at times, to maybe consider your choice of words poorly in such matters.

    I'm not sure you even realise it because you seem genuinely angered when people point it out.

    Here, hope this helps. It's only a little bit obvious.

    Regarding the idea itself, I think it's a good one, and yeah @Bickendan, and the other admins, this is what you should expect going forward. Not like you didn't know, but there's always going to be the asshole who believes people who speak out against racism are the real racists, women who speak out against misogyny are the real misogynists, people who fight fascism are the real fascists, it's a Trumpian topsy turvy world, and there are people who will twist reality a hundred different ways to make sure you know they despise everything you do.

    Personally I don't think this policy is necessary as it's already covered in the rules. Doesn't hurt to add clarification, though.

    What's most interesting and telling are the negative responses from certain posters. Almost as if they feel this rule clarification is targeted at them for some odd reason... :chris:

    No, you are a liar. You claimed “I” used the “n word” because over a decade ago I quoted a black comic who did. You are what is wrong with the world so if you want to fix the world start there.
    Also, yes, lying and calling people Nazis outside of the red room is indeed trolling outside of the red room.

    You say that so much its lost all meaning.
    That, and "you're stupid/crazy/mentally impaired/delusional/retarded/schizophrenic/etc/etc/etc/infinity".

    You're desperately in need of new material.

    You not only quoted, but you agreed, which is no different than if you'd thought up the quote yourself.

    John, you said every white person, simply by virtue of their race, owes a blood debt even if no one in their family was ever in any way involved with slavery. You can keep lying and pretending that is not racist, just like you ALWAYS lie about everyone else’s positions, but everyone with an I.Q. higher than pond scum knows you are espousing a racist position.

    My only real question at this point, as mods keep letting John troll outside the red room, is does John’s racist beliefs about whole races have a blood libel count as race baiting or will this be a complete double standard?

    I’m shutting this down now. It’s an announcement thread and, as expected, it turned into shit.
    If you all want to continue it, go to the Red Room.
