Real talk, cosplay subculture is usually pretty fuckin racist at its base level as well. Tons of "you shouldn't cosplay someone who isn't your skin color because you can't do it justice" - lots of shaming people, especially black folks, because they're "a black Sora" or "a black Princess Whatever The Fuck" etc. It's shitty and cosplay as a whole needs to grow the fuck up.

Chappelle had a joke about this years ago...I'm starting to learn as I grow older and more aware (Chappelle Show was when I was in middle school and his standups were even earlier) that his jokes contain more truths than I initially realized

And he only cared because a friend of his got arrested.
Though I'm thinking someone should search Grisham's webbrowser history. Might find something interesting.
I looked in that Michonne blackface thread and just walked out backwards doing the robot like Tracy in 30 Rock. Nope nope nope nope. I don't have time for that ignorance.

It can't be that, right? Unless I'm missing something, that seems completely innocuous.

That's gold.
I was thinking more along the lines of blacking out the whole post, but that might work if I can customize the word/phrase to something like "DON'T BOTHER READING".

Well got damn lol
Michonne thread is slowing up a bit. I do grow annoyed by the ones who freak out whenever racist or racism is mentioned. The word scares the shit out of people, understandably so, but damn can we discuss the difference between a racist act and actual racists/racism before throwing about "omg everything is racist now and everyone's a racist!"?

Sighs what a day. Came home from graveyard shift to be greeted by the neighbors rottweiler in the yard. So I couldn't go to sleep until the catcher give it back to the neighbor. Wake up to agonizing pain all over and a Blackface thread which there is a DEFENSE :/. *hits alarm clock*
Will it include excerpts from the lauded Webster's Dictionary?

It's only racism when you're burning crosses in a POC's lawn. Everything else is filed under "ignorance".

I would ask does someone have to die for people to acknowledge racism, but we've seen even that isn't enough.
Sorry to detract from you never ending battle against racists on gaf, but there is an experience I would like to share
I was playing DCUO with one of the dudes I regularly play with, and he mentions his son getting on, I was curious didn't know he was a dad and his son is old enough to play games So I asked him how old he was. Turns out the dude is like 64 and his son is like 34, and his grand kids even play. I thought that was kind of sick ya know, I never really had much experience with older family members playing games with me, my parents along with being generally terrible people didn't have much interest in games, well my dad played madden I guess. I played Mario and Megaman games with my aunt, this is before she was also a horrible human being, I still cherish the moments when I didn't know of her crimes against humanity ( you might be like that's a stretch, no its not ). And i used to play tekken with my grandpa before he died of a surgical mishap, I kinda wish he was still around so I can show him where tekken has come. He also played street fighter and stuff.
Black gaf, do you have any experiences playing video games with older members of your family, aunts, grandparents maybe?
