Does Get Big get too many racist posts now? your call?

[benchmstr]

Call me a libtard jackass nitwit, but a lot of posts here are overtly racist.
Some threads and posts try to mix in humor with the racism, but it seems obvious.
I swear, sometimes I think I've stumbled on to a neo-nazi or KKK forum.


Your thoughts?

Why don’t you calm down with your darkie enquiries

The white liberals here are trying to muzzle free speech and shut down debate on controversial subjects like they did on twitter and Facebook. Why are liberals so afraid of open discussion and offensive subjects?

Because they are little pansies and leftist socialist cucks.  howard should be ashamed the most of all of them.

Wiggs went out it with Ron about the blatant racism years ago.

Then he realized the race card doesn’t work for blacks here and dropped the charade, and went back to posting normally. The race card only has power if you feed into it. Most who use it are probably surprised it works so well in real life because deep down they aren’t offended or upset at all. They just want to bully others under the thin veneer of racial offense.

Agnostic007 does it too. He did it in this same thread by trying to guilt trip the mods by saying they don’t do their job (totally false).

Maybe?
On a serious note, I've met Ron at a couple shows and actually like the man.
I've been on ( and off) get big since it started almost 20 yrs ago.

My concern is that "perceived racism" from a large number of racially controversial posts/threads could cause problems.
I know many here feel they are just speaking their minds.
BUT, I that's from the safety of an anonymous post on a forum.

Freedom of speech goes both ways and I'm concerned about the impact these posts would have on any sponsors of get big or Ron's reputation.
Ron's made a living from being involved in business directly related to the NPC/IFBB contest industry.
Ron earned his good name within the industry and I'd hate to see that ruined.

In simple terms, the posts may not be Ron's quotes, but GetBig is his site.

Go have a few drinks and stop being a chicken little.

Yeah, my presence is spotty though...with the horrible weather I am having now, it’s really giving me more free time

It's the reality we live in.

I bet Howard never lived in a predominant black or hespanic neighbourhood. Typical hypocrite.

Yeah something like that.

[Kwon3]

Yeah something like that.

He’s fine now. Liked by most here and likes us back. Even I teased him about his new career in personal training and he didn’t take it personally. If America would stop bending over backward to every accusation of racial insensitivity, they’d be surprised to learn that the people accusing them would get over it quickly. If you don’t give your crying kid fast food whenever he threatens to throw a fit, he’ll eventually eat his dinner and join everyone at the grown up table again. He’ll thank you later when he grows up and realizes life isn’t about getting your way with everyone all the time.

[Kwon3]

I don't like "safe spaces" and am 100% for speaking freely.
My concern here is about the overall welfare of GET BIG.

We’re all set, don’t sweat it about getbig. If a large number of posters complain about the same issue or person, Ron or OMR will handle it, as always. Don’t worry about it. But it’s sweet of you to look out for a site you don’t own or post on regularly.

[Fortress]

Howard is all for white nations being eradicated, their cultures destroyed and the white race itself being erased from the planet.

Howard is a reprehensible cucktard.

The new strength is racism, sexism and intolerance.

This isn't the board to discuss this. I'm all for the laughs and I like you.

And reinstating patriarchy after this weirdo 50 year experiment of letting women think legal equality means emotional and physical equivalency as well. Enough families and marriages destroyed by this male-hating feminist hysteria and reputation ruining dog shit.

Agreed. Please tell Howard to have it moved to the social issues or politics forum.

you don't like what you read , but that is from people speaking freely , there are countless other forums where people are forced to be politically correct . . .

I like Kwon number 1. Definitely don't step in number 2.

GetBig is far from a Utopian society.

In the real world, we are faced with the best and worst of what society has to offer us. Racism is real, although most often times it is covert in presentation. Cruel people exist in this world and we need to learn to embrace their and our differences alike, because unfortunately we can't do much to phase them out.

If I decided to get a hard-on every time someone makes an antisemitic comment on here, I would suffer from priapism and would need to stab my penoris for sheer relief. Granted, if a poster only posts racist or hate-filled material every single day and does so blatantly by creating multiple hate-filled threads, then yes, I will certainly jump in and delete said comments/threads, as will Princess, Chaos, Grant and the Ronfather.

The rules are clear and we try to abide by them, but I look at posters here much like I do comedians. The funniest comedians are typically also the ones that deliver the raunchiest and raciest material. Dave Chappelle would joke about African Americans and call them "niggers" all the time. He would also make fun of racist white individuals and call them CRACKERS, as well as every other derogatory term possible. Richard Pryor would do similar, as did Eddie Murphy and presently other comics like Ari Shaffir (a former orthodox Jew) does the same all the time.

If we cut out every last racist or derogatory comment, this place would become very boring. Now, if someone sends any of the moderators a private message suggesting that they are being attacked, we act on it.

This down here is some funny shit, but only if you are able to disassociate with these strict views.

Just speaking the truth. Like I said, racism is a part of Getbig, has been for years. I've never been a fan of having rules that no one follows. I would prefer the rules be done away with if they aren't followed or enforced. It is a fact the rule about blatant racism isn't enforced. I accept that. But it's not false in the least tiny bit no matter how much you squint your eyes.

Or how about you get over it and just post like everyone else who ignores what they don’t agree with without asking for rules to be changed.

Which is and always has been the way things work here. When something becomes disruptive it gets removed and if that doesn’t work, the user follows suit. Seems fair.

Remember all the chances junior got? People were saying he had a special relationship with the staff to get so many breaks. The beginning of the end was when he sent an extremely anti-Semitic PM to you after one particular ban. He was removed permanently after that.
