It was hijacked into a racism thread because the op wanted to know why this forum has no civility....racism is the problem with this forum.This thread is a good example, started out well, was hijacked into a racism thread, then periodically returns to a sane conversation.

I beg to differ. Racism is one of the problems in this forum but not the only one by a long way. Misogyny is rampant as is trolling for the sake of trolling. The partisan divide is another serious problem too. Let's not forget the religious friction either.
All of those problems disrupt the flow of the threads. However none of them are going away without us choosing to rise above the fray. As far as I am concerned there is no difference between the types of bigotry out there. They are all wrong and should be treated with the contempt they deserve. But I refuse to lower myself to the level of the bigots. They simply don't deserve any of my time and attention. Life is too short to waste on the stupid and ignorant in my opinion.

All they have to do is start enforcing the rules that are already published and most of the issues would be resolved. The question is why are they not enforcing the rules...why are the racists allowed to derail every thread with their hate? Allowing this to happen is condoning the thoughts, IMO.

They DO enforce the rules....just not to your snitching racist ass satisfaction is all.

No, they don't. Asshole. I did forget to add you to that list though.
But...but...nobody is complaining about someone calling someone else a cave monkey? Oh. Wait.

What would you call a white racist that calls black people porch monkeys? Can you think of a better term?

They are allowed to spew their nonsense...it is not racism. It is only racism if a black person responds in kind. So if you are called a porch monkey, a ******, a spook, tarbaby etc....and you respond negatively with something like idiot, asshole, jerk...you are the racist...not the white guy.

I would think them an idiot and beneath my notice and avoid them. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Kinda like the N word, eh? Blacks can but whites can't. Amirite?

Nothing like that Grace. The N word is more like the B word. I'm Black I can use the N word. You as a female can use the B word. See how that works?
Call Mike Tyson "the n word" and you'll be crawling around the floor trying to find your teef, Snowflake.
