lol Chris G is not racist, people are taking shit seriously when they don't even know the person. The FGC is probably the most diverse gaming community out there

 

[jmizzal]

moron

 

[mbpm1]

Yeah. A fair share of my tournament going friends kept commenting at being surprised how many female players they saw in Tekken and Skullgirls.

It might help that there's a lot of female characters in both games. idk though

 

[trixx]

screw Chris G never liked him glad that he got ass beat by Snake Eyez and Punk consistently

 

[TheTylerRob]

Haha. Define irony:

Person who plays fighting games for a living looks down nose at other people.

Yeah why don't they shit post for a living like me 😎.

just stop

 

[Chindogg]

He's a whiny racist bitch, not a heel.

Yeah that's another pet peeve of mine.

You're not a "heel" if you act like a piece of garbage around people.

Bullying people in game makes you a heel. Being a bigot makes you an asshole.

Is this a parody post? Do you know the person and how do you know he isn't racist?

 

[selo]

What? No scorn for the guy that says "fat fu$% nerds"? He's also generalizing.

 

[Grakl]

I've only heard people in the FGC call him shitty for saying this, not "Lol Chris pls". Just confirms what we already know about him.

 

[notworksafe]

you are right, the fgc is the most diverse gaming community. that's why it's important that we call out racist morons like chris g when their bullshit comes out.

 

[DeuceGamer]

lol Chris G is not racist, people are taking shit seriously when they don't even know the person. The FGC is probably the most diverse gaming community out there

Am I missing something? Was those not his comments? Those are clearly racist comments. Not sure how that can be argued or defended.

 

[TetraGenesis]

Kill. His. Career.

Okay, Chris.

The clinic I work at is also very diverse. Does that mean that if I start talking trash about how universally awful all the black women that work there are it wouldn't be racist?

 

[Raylan Targaryen]

"He's a sexist, racist, arrogant, alienating, self absorbed asshole. Buuuut he's pretty damn good at Street Fighter, so he has my full support."

And people wonder why outsiders don't take the FGC seriously...

Hey, at least he's good at something. Trump is all those things but bad at everything and got elected President.

FGC at least has some standards compared to the rest of America

 

[Volta Mars]

lol Chris G is not racist, people are taking shit seriously when they don't even know the person. The FGC is probably the most diverse gaming community out there

Make derogatory remarks about black women. Double down on said remarks, unapologetically. Still a racist asshole. But if it's just "Jokes"™, then my bad... had no idea.

 

[hypernima]

Yea i hope the black players come out and set his ass straight.

I hope so, but a lot of the minor black players seem so self hating so I doubt it.

Because what started it all was the Hodge twin mentioning how Asian female gamers are more respected than Black female gamers in the fgc

It's kinda true, and the weird like fetishes a lot of players in the fgc have for them, before I stopped following the FGC I remember a lot of ppl being thirsty for some play named MIM I think?

if only. hero worship in the fgc has grown to an unreasonable degree over the years, so he'll most likely get a slap on the wrist "punishment" that will be forgotten within a week.

see: noel brown grabbing a woman's ass on stream and being "banned for a year" and it lasting maybe one event.

couldn't hurt to let the folks running @EvilGeniuses what you think about their player's position on black women though.

One word. Hyuga.

I feel like you meant to be encouraging, but somehow I'm not reassured

more sarcastic but that works too

So if you're terrible at your job and hate everyone, you deserve a high position. Got it.

What white supremacist are we electing as the head of the NAACP?

 

[The Finest Brew]

What in the fuck kind of ignorant ass post is this?

No Twitch chat is not indicative of how anyone in the FGC speaks. Many events have very aggressive no bigotry policies that the vast majority of people adhere to. You have a pocket full of people saying really dumb shit and the majority of our community has blasted the hell out of them for it.

Getting really tired of this kind of garbage being spread around as if it's some sort of fact.

Amen. I've gotten nothing but love and support from all of my experiences in the FGC. Stream chat isn't us. And we honestly do make a concerted effort to root this shit out, for what it's worth.

 

[NastyBook]

Is he saying he won't have sex with a woman unless there is another man there to help? WTF?

Wish I could tag you for this. 😂😂😂

 

[vulva]

I hope so, but a lot of the minor black players seem so self hating so I doubt it.

he was more of a Whoyuga? though. Chris G's established enough that hero worship will have more backing.

 

[fresquito]

Am I missing something? Was those not his comments? Those are clearly racist comments. Not sure how that can be argued or defended.

No, he has not proven himself a racist, but a shortsighted dude that cannot differentiate between anecdotal evidence and truth.

He is super friends with many black players. He just happens to despise a certain type of black women he has found one too many times.

NeoGAF is turning into a pretty scary place. This is fast turning into a Pitchfork Club.

Remember kids, calling someone a racist is way more offensive than actually saying racist things.

What a wonderful standard... The community is diverse, so it can't be racist. Someone in the community said something racist? Oh, well, the community is diverse, so you must be misinformed.

 

[Alcotholic]

Video games are srs bsness...
Fuck this guy.

 

[dreamlongdead]

I feel the majority of these Pro players are garbage. It's just a matter of how long before they slip up.

Pretty ironic to see you (and others) make these generalizations about the FGC while denouncing Chris G for his sweeping statements about black girl gamers.

It's ignorant stuff, and he shouldn't have said it. I don't think these words will have a real effect on his career. It will all be forgotten very soon.

K bye. Chris has frequently shown to be a asshole, sorry we're continuing to call him out for it.

"Black female gamers suck" is pretty fuckin racist, there really isn't a way to spin that. And then calling most of them ratchet on top of that.

being a racist misogynist and being against racist misogynists is the same thing

 

[Line_HTX]

I wouldn't base the response of a few Twitch trolls as how the community acts. Recently, they raised a ton of money for charity, one of the community members is flying out someone to EVO, and another one is flying out 3 on their own money. Gofundmes for accidents get filled up and taken care of, everyone is supportive, and most want the scene to grow and include as many people as possible. Chris G is an anomaly even among the top players. Unfortunately, that's what gets on the news.

Which is not to say we don't have issues, and this dumbass should get heat. But for every Chris, there are 10 Justin Wongs or Daigos willing to be helpful to everyone inside and outside the community like family.

Chris is an embarrassment.

Absolutely 100% this post. People need to stop acting like the FGC at large are still bad people when there have been serious efforts made to clean up and be as welcoming as possible.

Call this fucking imbecile out for being so fucking ignorant, because he is super ignorant, but some of y'all need to quit saying stupid shit like this is how it passes as normal in the FGC, because it's NOT. That's as bad as people writing articles highlighting a few bad apples and completely overlooking the effort by many others to be good people and grow the community.

 

[Fury451]

Why does it seem to be pro Overwatch players who spout this shit the most?

Why does it seem to be pro CS GO players who spout this shit the most?

Why does it seem to be pro Dota players who spout this shit the most?

I mean.

That's fair. Just seemed to be a lot of EVO players

He straight up said black female gamers suck.
That's not "Oh I dislike a certain type of person" that's "if I see a black woman gaming, I automatically think they're trash". That's pretty much what he said.
You're putting all this nuance into his words but that man said exactly what he meant.

 

[LionPride]

The FGC remains...not shit

No, racist is saying all black people suck at playing games. You are the one spinning a very specific statement into a wide one.

I'm not here to defend anybody, but if you are going to burn the witch, don't burn her because she happens to have a broom.

Hmm....

 

[Line_HTX]

And I thought I actually like how he played Morrigan and was the only player to stop stupid Marvel shit... I was dead fucking wrong.

There are better Morrigan players out there anyway. Fuck you Chris, you can take your racist, ignorant New Yawk accent outta your sponsor and drown in all your hardware.

A very specific racist statement is still racist.

 

[SapientWolf]

He's using race and gender as a justification to make negative blanket statements about a group of people in the FGC. That's textbook racism and misogyny. There's also no way he can claim irony or say he was joking because it's not funny and he keeps reiterating his racist talking points.

And being part of a community should be about building people up, not tearing them down. What a piece of shit.

Let's say it's not racist then. At the very least it's a sexist statement. There really ain't no way to spin this.

Chris G has come far since his crying after every loss phase.

are you seriously arguing that his statement isn't racist because he specified black women

so being racist and misogynist cancel each other out or something?

Saying stupid racist shit against one gender is still saying racist shit

Like if I were to say "all asian women" followed by some dumb shit, that's still being racist because you're including the race.
