Sigh, pretty innocuous comment wiped out one of my favorite posters - AmyS posts tons of fantastic retro magazine scans in retro-theme threads.

Innocuous? She was ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY.

I agree with the content of the article.  A black dude "behaving erratically" in the park is much more likely to have the cops called on them for no damn reason, especially at night.  And statistically speaking, that encounter with the police is much more likely to be violent than if he was white.

She could have participated in this thread

but alas, acceptable levels of women and sexuality in video games will have to be determined by a group of nu-males if the other 5 women left on the site don't venture out of OT.

that was the hill she chose to die on??  :doge

Choosing that hill to die on is really bad optics for her, and honestly was kind of gross. She should know better than to concern troll and should bring receipts when she throws shade like that. Otherwise she just comes across as toxic. Mods help!

Yeah, but the title is too provocative for a website that drives business via provocative headlines. That's more important than the content, really. You've got to have principles, right?

Your post is problematic, and full of dog whistles. FOH. SMH.

Edit: Fuck, I forgot to mention 'fuckboi', fam. This is harder than it looks. Perhaps that's why those cats seem so fucking strung out all the time. Can't be easy choosing between fleek and lit without reference material to hand.

Alright, I had enough of this garbage! This isn't about anti-Hillary, this is about pro-Trump! Your opinion is toxic because it endangers the lives of many because you didn't get your way. Trump as president would effectively kill me based on the current GOP platform because I'm trans and bisexual and my partner is hispanic who looks a bit like middle eastern. Everything crazy about Trump is being adopted by the GOP, the party that controls the Senate, the House, most governorships, and I'll be damn if they get the executive branch and the judicial branch. They'll have complete power and there we be nothing short of a complete violent revolution to stop them.

You have been banned for the following reason:
Stop playing the ignorant troll in political threads. It stopped being funny years ago, and you are just derailing threads for posters who aren't regular members of PoliGAF.

Ha ha, funny. I'm going to get my rights revoked, possible get killed, while my boyfriend is going to be profiled as a possible "radical islamist" and possibly deported back to Mexico because he's the child of an illegal immigrant if we had your way.

Meanwhile, what you want is never gonna happen and what's likely going to happen is that young white liberals are going to tweet on their faceagrams about how bad it all is and miss voting midterms... again...

Minorities are going to have to step their game, but, well, we're going to be targeted and get killed because we're going to be seen as terrorists even if we're peaceful. Plus there's gonna be a lot of fringe bigots whose gonna kill us off because they feel vindicated.

I'm interested in Dice Clay as I am with controversial people in general for whatever reason. Decided to finally watch his stand up and jesus was it terrible. Not in an offensive way, you can say anything if it's comedic in my view. But dude had like no jokes that could make me laugh. It's just saying stereotypes without getting to a joke.

I was pretty disappointed, because at least Mike Tyson and Axl Rose were good at what they did.

The guy had a single schtick, one joke, and extended it out over a career.

When it comes to comedy, sometimes you have to take it in the context of the time period they were popular.  Most people in the late 80s were coked up and NYC was a crime ridden shithole so the average New Yorker saw shit talking "street tough" Italians (although Dice Clay was a Jew, he is clearly imitating Italians) all over the place.  Doesn't make much sense in 2016 but in 1987, it made perfect sense.

I'm not a fan of targeted ads. Im part of the AnimeGAF community but it doesn't mean I want everyone around me knowing it. Getting constant "Anime girl in revealing/provocative outfit/position" ads, even on topics that have nothing to do with it, is getting annoying. I'd rather opt out of targeted and go with generic ones if it means not having this happen anymore.

Oh I was around for it, the 80's were my teen years. And it's wrong for me to look back and say man what the hell was that about? But there was some solid standup during the 80's and Dice is what's remembered. And still, while it's what New Yorkers identified with, it's still one joke.
