In terms of racism, WoW doesn't hold a candle to the old WWF. WWE ain't a whole lot better. W the president wasn't much of a friend to the non-whites either. In fact, W is the most racist letter.

[zodium]

imagine being so racist that p99, a everquest emulator which has a forum where people post pictures of hitler and openly blaming "the j's" for all the bad politics things longer than the four years i've been here, force disbands uyor guild for racism, and your like "well everquest is racist. did u think about that? see, im not owned"

lol

Who's we? Most every group has a history of persecution or lower standing. Not exploiting that cheap material for laughs is just basic human decency. It isn't even low hanging fruit. It's on the ground rotting and best left untouched by those who can't reach the topmost branches. Few comedians have managed to extract humor out of the darkest chapters in history. American comedy largely came from its immigrant communities, not nerds with too much time on hands.

That's kinda the sum of it. Yeah. Should probably afford the same courtesy to Jews and Native Americans. Not to mention the Asians and Latinos. Pacific Islanders were certainly exploited by the Caucasians at some point. Muslims are a little more tit-for-tat historically, but be nice to them also, because it's better than being mean. But fuck the Kiwis. Piss on them for being a better America than America.

[HalflingSpergand]

Must be embarrassing to need hand outs and nicies from the big dawgs

[Ravager]

Too bad you're a complete fucking retard, otherwise you'd be embarrassed and ashamed of that remark.

Sounds like it's the "being extra nice" you've got a problem with. Must be real inconvenient going out of your way to be decent. How dare someone have such high expectations for any reason, let alone a good one.

Treating black people differently for any reason is definitionally racist. Don't matter if you shine their shoes or burn a cross on their lawn.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

Consider this picture and, please, try your best to not get too excited about it:

This man was murdered for being falsely accused of trying to harm a white woman (she later admitted that this wasn't true). What I would like you to notice though is the smiling little girl behind him. Do you think she would be smiling if it were a puppy being hung? She is smiling here because she was taught that the lives of blacks are worth less than even animals.

Some people like to imagine that slavery was hundreds of years ago so what's the big deal, why do we even have to bring it up anymore? This picture is from 1935. That little girl is someone's grandmother or great grandmother today. Racism is most often taught and unfortunately the legacy and lasting detrimental effects of slavery can not just be simply forgotten so soon.

No, I'm not trying to say that you "gotta be extra nicies forever," but I am trying to say that you should probably try to be more empathetic and realize slavery wasn't actually that long ago and yes, it wouldn't hurt for you to keep this context in mind when interacting with black people today.

[G13]

Not if the behaviors were based solely on a person's race or identity, which is why he emphasized content of character.

The point is to treat everyone universally with dignity and respect based upon their humanity. Not based upon the melanin content in their skin, what gender they have sex with, or if they underwent a procedure to modify their genitalia.

Whether the treatment is positive or negative doesn't matter. People who modify their treatment of others (good or bad / preferential / deferential) based upon characteristics such as race or sexual preference are in fact the bigots themselves.

The preferential treatment may make you feel better about yourself and give you a sense of moral superiority over others, but you are hurting the people you think you are trying to help and stagnating their ability to develop and grow. You are essentially putting them in a box based upon their identity with no way out.

You don't allow them to develop as human beings outside of their identity, so they can never truly grow and overcome adversity. Overcoming adversity builds character. It builds self esteem.

Adversity can be defined in many different ways. Maybe you have a learning disorder. Maybe you grew up poor. Maybe you grew up without a mother or father. By facing these challenges and overcoming them, it builds character and prepares you for success.

Indeed, being nice is the worst kind of racism. :p

It's a historical picture that has been published in newspapers and magazines such as the National Geographic. I can't say I'm surprised you're not familiar with it. People like you usually aren't very educated on this kind history. The victim's name is Rubin Stacy.

I don't mind attempting to educate people like you, if it wasted on you I'm sure it can't be the only thing.

[TripSin]

Sorry for all the generalizing. By "people like you" I just mean racists. Well, not just any racist, I think we're all a little bit racist (great Avenue Q song btw), but like, you know, hardcore racists.

Yeah, that's what I said. And what you said is still largely irrelevant. Do you just not understand what the word legacy means? You bolded it as if that means something. I guess in your mind you're making a point? lmao

Yeah this is totally why DMO was shut down. Haven't seen any Hitler memes yet but I feel like someone gonna do it to prove why a guild of erudites on an emulated EQ server shouldn't be allowed.

Not even sure wtf I'm reading here, I joined P99 cause I played EQ back in the day when I was a little kid and wanted to play it now that I have a clue in my head, and nowadays when I'm trying to revisit my nostalgia, there's dudes actually spending time on here trying to quantify why somebody is racist as if it's some sort of fucking e-sport.

It's cringe to the highest degree, I hope to god these queers never go look at the archived necro boards back in the day, some of the stuff I saw on there when my dad posted flew over my head, but man did they post worst shit back then, as opposed to now, and it wasn't even offensive, it was just stupid and funny.
