Controversy over symbols and racism .
There are people at 2+2 argueing that anyone using this symbol:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cactuar is a racist. Also, there are several people that are claiming I don't know what I'm talking about when I say the Rebel Flag isn't about slavery. Apparently they are offended by images like this: Because that stands for slavery and is racist! I bet all those people in dollywood are racist too! This woman has to be evil! Apparently the state flags of Georgia, Mississippi, Arkansas, Florida, and Alabama are also racist and was designed specifically to opress black people. However, state legislature records from that time only talks about state rights, heritage, etc. That doesn't matter though, I guess it's still racist to some. I wonder if this guy is a racist: and this guy is a racist This guy is holding a sign attacking the NAACP!!! HE MUST BE RACIST!!! (sign says "NAACP LEAVE MY MISSISSIPPI STATE FLAG ALONE") I bet this is some real racist booty here! and here: So what do you say OOT? Is anyone that posts a swastika cactus or rebel flag racist? |

I'm pretty tired of hearing all the defenses of crap like this. Even OOT is better than that.

the first pic is a different version than the original. I personally don't find it offensive, but I suppose some people might. The other [censored] doesn't make sense to me.

Also, I don't see how the confederate flag represents slavery. The civil war was about states' rights, not slavery. Slavery was a side issue.

I think there are bigger things to worry about.
Also, I have yet to see a massive influx of racially charged images. |

personally, I think there are some very stupid mods around here.
Also this is the problem when you appoint regualr posters to moderate a forum. You get narrow minded people who love to flex their power over people who used to be their "peers" and decide for everyone else what goes and what doesnt. Its just a symptom of a fevered little ego. just to clarify tho, I think there are some really good mods around here too. But there are definately some that need to go. |
