Bigot Brigade Something Awful and Friends - The roller-coaster train-wreck embarrassing downfall of a Web 1.0 giant and its tick offspring like from Cloverfield

This is great on so many levels:

She tries to cop out of how the subforum turned into a dumpster fire while she was asleep by basically begging people to close their shitpost threads or edit them. But the bans are gonna start any minute now! Really! Just keep watching that clock!

She's in a no-win situation at this point and she knows it. If she bans all the shitposters (and the admins approve her ban request), she looks like the crazy tyrant people were saying she was, laying out a dozen bans all at once on her first day. If she doesn't, the new forum is a shithole forever and she's a paper tiger.

There is like.. what? 2 black SA posters. And the female thread was all MTFS and dudes.

And most of the real black posters already post in FYAD and they're not leaving there for "Negrotown."
 
Black people can sit anywhere on the bus, actually, if there are no white people in the seats ahead of them.
Well that analogy doesn't work unless black people can only post so long as no white people are waiting to post ahead of them.

But nitpicking aside, lol they're so crazy they think a return to segregation will be a good thing. It's like anti-vaccers who say "I never had polio, it can't be that bad".

"Black people can sit anywhere on the bus, actually, if there are no white people in the seats ahead of them. I really don't see why it's so bad to have a special section on the back of the bus they can choose to sit in if they want to be among their own kind."
If a black person WANTS to sit at the back of the bus I dont see a problem. When a black person is told that they can ONLY sit at the back of the bus, is forced to sit at the back because that's where "their kind" belongs for "being inferior to the white man", then it becomes a racist issue. Black people have free will and can do what they want. To me, when you bring up the bus thing, youre getting caught up in the metaphor of what color of person is sitting where, and not the issue behind it.

It's not even a special section only for black people because white people, or anybody is allowed to post there. Youre just going not going to be given top priority because you arent black. Yeah, it's literally a safe space but while Im not a social justice warrior, white privilege is the biggest talking point of theirs that I agree with. Let black people have a safe space if that's what they want. It's not really any different from mens clubs or womens clubs or church groups or anything like that.
 
It's not a perfect analogy but then again there has never been a time before when a lazy comedy forum owner accidentally reinvented Jim Crow but for the internet.

And yeah, black posters can post anywhere, unless they want to post about being black. Then someone will tell them to stop derailing this dang politics thread with all that race stuff and they will flip out.

That the people most affected by this will be people posting in blackface is the best because you know they're furious thinking 'what would sound the blackest right now' as if white people post like this, black people post like this.
 
Lol Taxman changed the name of the subforum already. Just delete it.

That makes it sound even more like he's genuinely in favor of racial segregation. At least negrotown is obviously satire (unless you desperately want to be offended).

I actually think the Negrotown thing is being blown out of proportion though I do agree that it's a bad choice to start it up right now. It's not actually segregating the black posters because theyre welcome to post wherever they want to in the forum, nobody is making them post there and telling them they can only post there. It's just a space that they can post if they want to, where other black people are going to be a majority. It's kind of like the lady thread.

Its kind of a shame that it's gonna be the thing that gets the most attention because of all the virtue signaling that goes on around race, because that always makes it worse.
That's true, but also the reason why this is a problem for Lowtax in the first place: these things will always be blown out of proportions and catering to the social justice crowd will never end well. Lowtax thought this decision would finally make them happy, but he didn't understand that they don't want to be happy, they want to be outraged. It's what they have constructed their whole identity around.

The second Lowtax enacted negrotown, he became a juicy target for outrage and is being cannibalized accordingly.
 
Why does a comedy site even have a serious political discussion? Shouldn't the politics forum just be people cracking jokes and shit at what's going on in the political world?

Don't understand how they got to this point. You have a comedy forum but ban people for making jokes in it so that the people who hate comedy can feel more comfortable. Oh well, carry on Lowtax.

He can't get rid of it now because he'll lose at least 25% of the forums and they won't come back. They'll make their own forums.

"White privilege" isn't real. White people aren't magically given everything they want. The people unironically posting in Negrotown, and KM, are looking for fights to pick. They are Noctornus Libertus / Sierra McGrone, race baiters who want spaces where they can let their racism out against whites for slights they've never even experienced.

No one is saying you can't and shouldn't have black-only spaces. People are saying it directly hurts their cause by making those black-only spaces places where you can shit on people of other skin colors using made up bullshit and unverified studies.

Because that's racist when anyone does it.

Your FAU-endorsed moderator, everyone.
It gets better.

Totally not power tripping.

And the Taxman is hammering out an announcement as we speak. He just has to finish that article first about how he "tricked" "the alt-right" into laughing at him for "ironically" begging Notch for money on social media.

To clarify: I never want him to stop.

Also I missed catching it in a screenshot but he made fun of the black guy who vandalized his own cars after the election, then I guess realized Negrotown would scream at him for mocking a victim of Trump Traumatic Stress Disorder and deleted it. What a shame.
