My POST got LOCKED because of Racist content...

[iamzani (DayZ) 35]

So I uploaded a Video about what Black People (WHAT I AM MYSELF FYI) should wear to survive life in Chernarus. Now I am so sick and tired of people overthinking this issue... This is how racism will never leave our world because we always make a discussion about it. True, the best way is not too mention it at all, but lets be honest Racism will always be there. So what do I do? I make fun of it! I am black myself and a lot of my favourite comedians (eddie murphy, chris rock, dave chapelle) ALL make fun of racism. Why? Cos it is ridiculous! Wether you are white, black, female, asian, a redhead etc etc. It shouldnt matter thats why you make fun of the stereotypes, for me its a show of strength to show people you cannot hurt me with you comments! It is how I always dealt with racist comments and you know what they never had a comeback because they realised they are being a moron. I do not give a damn what people call me, if they ARE racist thats their problem imo. I am just so sick and tired of people not getting the joke, which it obviously is. I even noted NOT to make a big deal out of it and that it is purely meant for entertainment. It is a shame that it is sooo damn sensitive for a lot of people. Cmon man grow a pair if we keep treating it so sensitive it will ALWAYS be a big deal (that includes the black people who blame everything on racism), if we dont it will just become more blurry by the day ... People who have a problem with any race, just leave them be in their lil fcked up world! 

 

Anyway I just wanted to clarify myself here because my post got locked and was not able to respond. Really people, chill da hell out...   ;) Have a laugh about it and THATS IT, no need to overthink it...

You made a mistake by making this Topic, you should have contacted the Forum Staff.
 
While I agree with you and appreciated the video, I'm afraid the original Topic would have degraded and was locked to prevent such.
When you start with :

"Note: Plz do not take any of this seriously... This is purely meant for entertainment and not to start out some discussion about Racism (had this happen before)."

 

The above post is hard to take seriously.

 

I will make a compromise..

Hello there

 

I think Boney has been very fair.

 

Remember *this* is our job and we've been around here a loooong time and seen all sorts of things.

 

One thing we *have* seen at least  once is low level racism that tried to insinuate itself into the forum and we had to ban  a few very subtle but horrid racist trolls. They're not people you would want on the forum, trust me.

 

This is why we pounce on some posts.

 

We disapprove of the N word in *any* context regardless of it trying to be reclaimed or being used as a slur.

 

Still, all's well that ends well.
