Yes because those people are so sensitive that anytime 'white people' are mentioned they think it's about them :toofunny:

There is a lot of irony in this post

There is a difference between saying "members here are mainly privileged white gays" which is just an ethnographic fact about this website and saying "blacks are mainly criminals" which is a racist generalization of black people...

Saying "most people here are white gays" =/= generalizing white gays... I'm not saying that most or even many white gays visit GGD, just that the makeup of the site is generally white and gay :smh:

 

You can keep trying to make these weak ass connections, but it's a total false equivalency and the more you try to connect them as the same the more embarrassing it gets.

Really its a fact that "members here are mainly privileged white gays who are hypersensitive, don't know how to discuss racial issues and are lowkey racist and the mods here are the same." Where are you getting these facts? You cant just have an argument with a few people and then say everyone on here is a gay privilieged white person who is lowkey racist. And yes you saying most people here are white gay racists is generalizing about the people who are on this site. What you're trying to do is say that people here are racist to try and invalidate their opinions when they dont agree with yours.

That fact you tried to equivalent being called privileged to stereotyping black people as criminals :wtf:

It wasnt about the privileged part. It's about the fact that he's trying to claim that members here are mainly privileged  racist white gays which just isn't true.

Either way guys I think I'm done with this argument its clearly going no where. 

Hands up to the sky, I'm about to fly!

Me: Man white gays can be so racist and evil.

White Gays: NOT ALL WHITE GAYS!! HOW OUTRAGEOUS!! RACISM!! ....But also apes look like black people, BLM is trash #AllLivesMatter, that poor ape is so much more beautiful than this unintelligent black man, acknowledging that white gays can be racist is just as bad as saying "Blacks are mainly criminals", I don't think this particular instance is racism therefore BLM is totally discredited.

I think very few people here actually responded in that way. A lot said in this thread has been childish (from both sides). This particular situation doesn't negate BLM movement (imo) nor does it mean that the historically degrading depictions of black people in Hollywood should be forgotten, but this monkey wearing a blue vest is really a non-problem.

Whoops! #NotAllMembers actually responded like that :smh:

I've already said I don't think this is a problem which makes this and your witty "There is a lot of irony in this post" post a little redundant :shrug:

It's an ethnographic fact that "white gays" are the majority of this website. It's my opinion, and in my experience, that many of these privileged white gays are hypersensitive, don't know how to discuss racial issues and are low-key racist.

Once again I didn't say "everyone on here is a gay privilieged white person who is lowkey racist."

 

You putting such emphasis on me calling out the amount of white gays on this site who are racist instead of criticizing the fact that I have experienced racism on this site is very telling.

 

It's like talking to a brick wall - so I'm going to stop. You're not helping to disprove that so many white gays on this site are racially ignorant and hypersensitive though when you are so caught up on whether I'm generalizing all white gays as racist (despite me saying constantly that I don't think all white gays are racist :smh:) and so non-concerned about the racism I've experienced on this sight.

I dont really understand why everyone got so triggered from this OP? 

If you dont like a thread, ignore it, no need to be all sassy like "oh I got 3 coffees today Im woke af" and "go rant somewhere else". 

 The OP says that the movie is being accused for racism. 

Okay, it may be reaching but some of your reactions are really cheap. Like the ones I mentioned above. 

Grow up and try to be serious in sensitive topics, even if they may be wrong. This doesnt go to everyone ofc just the majority of them.

We're going to be locking this thread for now. It'll be reviewed in Modland and possibly opened back up in a little while :happy:
