It'll be Kinda Funny at PSX, I bet.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
So he is allowed to say whatever racist garbage he wants but other's can't talk about what he said? He is allowed to say that Mexicans are literally trying to steal land from the US but we are supposed to keep our mouths shut?
This is where we are.

brown people are inferior because they are brown = hate speech.
omg. the anti-intellectualism on display here is borderline sad.

If Easy Allies got the slot would be amazing. They're a thousand times better than KF anyway IMO.

I never said he orchestrated the whole thing. And I wasn't reductionist at all, what I described is quite literally exactly what he did.

I didn't say he cares. I said he would probably find great enjoyment out of some of these hysterical and insane posts coming out of some gaffers. There's nothing there that has any substance to be taken seriously for someone to care about.

That would be like mixing oil and water.
No see.
Hate speech is hate speech.
Opinions are opinions.
Opinions aren't hate speech because if they were why would they be called opinions instead of hate speech!
100% logic.

Perhaps, but I think EZA would be a great use of that slot.
I love Colin and Giant Bomb but I'd have to agree with this.

Have fun and good luck working for Glenn Beck or whatever you decide to do next, Colin. Maybe you could start writing news and reviews for the gamergate/alt right crowd. It's an underserved market.

i'm just reminded of that comic about how if the only thing you can use to defend what you just said is "free speech", you should probably think about the value of what you're saying.

Good god, no.

Literally anyone can go on the internet and find a group of people to support them regardless of their shitty ideals. What exactly is your point?
Jontron did. Did you forget that you were defending both Colin and Jon?
Just as long as he recognizes the privilege to have the ability to massage reprehensible views into "differences of opinion", then I don't have a problem with the post.

This is unspeakably dangerous and ignorant.
There is literally zero benefit to society to let super racist people try to spread their creed. The entire reason they do it is because they want to convince other people to be like them, AKA they want more racists.

There's a difference between "what they want to do" and "preaching racism and white supremacy."
One is freedom, one is fascism. White displacement is not a thing. Job displacement is a thing. Black domination is not a thing (why? because I made that shit up but it sounds just as good as "white displacement" doesn't it?) but racism still is.
I can't believe we have to debate this crap in 2017.

Like i said man. It's like 3 people. You're hyping it up as something its' not and quite frankly it seems we've already moved on from that lol.

Don't even, son.
I mean, he's Israeli and Jewish. With the rise of literal Neo Nazis in the United States, to say he's wholly unaffected is a bit hand-wavey.
Though, I guess it could be argued because he's a rich and successful person, he can afford to be ignorant to the more ground-level struggles minorities and marginalised people are having because of the resurgence (and in most cases emboldened and on-going) rise of Far-Right ideology.
Either way, I don't expect he'll stay buddies with Colin for long if Colin decides to double down on the shit that made staying at Kinda Funny untenable. He'll fall into the wrong crowd eventually, and his coddled Objectivist mindset will get warped into something much darker.

Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of TB and I watch his podcast weekly. I appreciate the episode a few weeks ago where he and the host made sure to make a statement about how they are inclusive.
But I don't see how having Colin on the podcast would bring anything positive. TB constantly trashes consoles. Colin constantly trashes PC.
Though I also think it might be is TB wanting to run a story by him before he uploads it to his channel. Just to be fair and let him know.
Preach.
EZA is exactly what I needed in the gaming community. Everything else is so damn negative and angry.

If any of you actually listened to Colin you would know that he is not a Trump supporter. He also dislikes sites like Breitbart.

You are subscribed to an ideology where being happy someone got fired isn't hateful, but making an Al Bundy-level joke about women is.
Sincerely hope you never lose your job, and gain some perspective.
Is that a threat

You're defending the right to be racist/sexist. Free speech has societal limits you ass.
LOL.

Hahahahahaha
No one is speaking *against* free speech, you're fighting an argument that doesn't exist here and ignoring all logic presented towards you
I wonder why you'd defend Colin tbh 🤔🤔🤔
Oh yeah for sure. I don't follow his podcast as often as before. Who knows
The worst fucking guest he had for me was..drumroll...our pal jontron. Even when talking about videogames he spouted random garbage (he went on an entire tirade as to how games were "better before"...better how we'll never quite understand, but that's Jon "Gene Pool Diluting" Tron)
