Slay, you shouldn't let cops pull your taint. It just encourages them.

Seriously, though, glad you're okay. If you guys need it, I can make a big cardboard cut out of myself that you can prop up in the back seat. Get that Driving Mr. Whitey protection going.

How bad is Taranji going to fuck Idris up?
Click to expand...

I'm going to guess he will get one stab wound, a gun shot wound, scolding water/powder thrown in his face, his hands slammed in a door, knocked in the back of the head with a pot/vase/lamp, the house is two stories so he could fall out of a window, and he'll probably slip and fall on the floor or down some stairs. And all this will be before Taraji's daughter shoots him dead.

I always see those posts as more to show the rest of the posters in the thread that the person has an agenda or bias rather than to show the mods. Also it seems to let the poster in question see the sum of their opinions and maybe get a reality check.

Well, I won't speak for other mods, but that is why I feel ambivalent about it. I'd known about Seanspeed's willingness to concede that racism exists in the abstract, but being seemingly unable to concede that any specific instance actually counted... unless it was happening to white people. If he could think of any other explanation, in his mind it took racism (or homophobia, for that matter) off the table as a viable explanation, which made his argument that he acknowledges the reality of those things hollow because he couldn't or wouldn't admit their existence when he was actually faced with them. So, on some level seeing him publicly shamed for that is something that I found my share of schadenfreude in. And seeing people's reactions, there were plenty of people who weren't aware of that larger history who were no aware of where he was coming from. And I think that posters who do that are part of what contributes to the low level of discourse on these topics, which keeps conversations at 101 levels as we have to have arguments about whether the observed event even was racism.

I am opposed to it because of broader concerns about what it could do to discourse. I worry that normalizing it could make people more interested in delving into other posters' histories to look for a history of arguing for a particular (albeit wrong) side. I realize that those posters are frustrating, but not every person who is acting clueless needs to be "exposed." I also feel that it constrains us somewhat in terms of moderation. We don't like the optics of someone "exposing" someone, posting it for public consumption, and then us banning that person. If we were watching that person already, it's sort of frustrating because it makes whatever moderation we do look as if it was in reaction to that post, whether that is or isn't the case. And we see the expectation that, well, now moderation has to ban this guy, as posters start questioning why the poster who had just been exposed hasn't been banned yet. The answer is probably: We already knew, and we don't want to encourage this by rewarding it with a ban. This is why we prefer that posters send us PMs; we don't like having the ban-sausage process being presented publicly.

I was kidding. I was channeling a post from a while back on the mod presence here = govt/police surveillance on brown people (or something like that). You're both nice guys.
you niggas both sound shook as fuck, You think Ima expose you next?

Reminds me of that episode of Fresh Prince where Carlton had a dummy he always drove with called "Safety Guy."
