I think once /u/spez realized that not only was Raccoon City racist, but that they had to clean a lot of shit up from that subreddit's users in other subreddits, and that it made it harder to recruit employees and moderators (nobody wants to say they work for a racist web site), a decision was made, and the banhammer came down.

Oh, the racists are butthurt today!

Seeker.

The threat of revenue lost is quite powerful. A fine example of just how powerful we are when we stop feeding the beast.

It is amazing to me that there is still so many racist and bigots, spewing their insanity all over the internet. I don't even believe most of them are real. Most seem to be pushing a mind set and rallying for supporters for their sinister agenda.

I have found it is impossible to have an intelligent conversation with one of these agents. Their arguments quickly fall apart and are abandoned for personal attacks. It would be laughable if what they are promoting was not so diversive and toxic.

Now if they could get the honey pot over at GLP cleaned up, that would be something to write about.

It's amazing and entertaining how fast they get butthurt by light taunting.

The coontowners in particular are dumber than a sack of hammers.

All they do is regurgitate the same rage points over and over again, in some cases literally copy-and-pasting.

I don't bother to try to debate them. I just insult them. Much more fun. The best they can do is "HURRR!!! LOSER SJW FAG!!!" That's usually when I remind them that they literally have no friends, and the people around them just tolerate them at best.

Are you talking about "GodlikeProductions.com" ....if so i totally agree. Would you believe the first person who ever told me about it is black, and he totally endorsed it to me. He works for Alex Jones and InfoWars now... maybe you've seen him..... it truly boggles my mind how sad it is.
