Is Datalounge a racist forum?

Just wondering. I posted the following gif, and all the responses on the thread expressed disgust. The two pictured in the gif are actually exceptionally good-looking in Japan. I can think of no other reasons for the inflammatory responses than the fact that the posters are racist.

Datalounge is definitely racist. Those guys are hot.

You posted that gif a COUPLE MINUTES AGO. The first three responses were negative and you IMMEDIATELY made this thread.

Off three fucking responses. What is wrong you?!!

(yes this board can be racist as any longtime DLer has seen but you are weird as hell)

Sadly DL most certainly racist. One would hope and think that a group with history of discrimination against them wouldn't be so hateful but a lot of the whiteys here are very bigoted themselves.

I love how we only talk about white racism, like black people and asians can't be racist at all. In Hawaii for instance Asians (who are now the biggest ethnic group on the islands) are very racist and suspicious of white mainlanders, even though they are newcomers to the area just like whities.

So yes, DL'rs are racist, but so are most other people on this earth.

Those guys in the .gif were kind of androgynous, and well...

The Datalounge is full of effeminate men who absolutely despise anything feminine, which makes for high levels of self-loathing. And other-people-loathing.

by Anonymousreply 21October 6, 2014 1:43 AM

The "Kill it with fire" thing is a standard DL joke.

Not being turned on by a particular group doesn't make one a racist. I don't find those two men attractive. That doesnt mean that I would oppress or harm them for it. I'm not sexually attracted to a lot of people, but, I don't hate them for it or discriminate against them for it. I just don't have sex with them. They're still free to vote.

Most of the people on this site (most of whom are not gay, by the way) are insane white supremacists. As well as right-wing trolls, misogynists, xenophobes, etc.

It's that way on any site that doesn't have 24/7 human monitoring (such as the New York Times does).

They're paid to be that way.

by Anonymousreply 26October 6, 2014 2:06 AM

Yes, the racism and misogyny are rampant and sad. It gets countered frequently, not not enough.

I am fairly conservative for DL, by the way. That doesn't stop me from spotting a bigot in libertarian's clothing like R24.

Also, the "kill it with fire" is indeed a DL staple as R22 pointed out. I've seen it used on men from various demographics.

And thanks, R11 and R13. There is a bizarre amount of straight white male worship here, much of it implicit. It's one of the more telling signs about us as a group and how we were socialized.

And I did think that the two guys were hot.

by Anonymousreply 27October 6, 2014 2:10 AM

Straight women and minorities are often openly hostile towards gays. With straight guys, most aren't confrontational unless they are fundie.

by Anonymousreply 28October 6, 2014 2:18 AM

Straight white guys are what almost every DLer wants. But they will take gay white guys who act as straight as possible. I don't think I've ever seen a gay site, so pro straight white men. Gay men are ridiculed, especially bottoms. Ethnic and racial minorities are only good to serve various fetishes based on racial and ethnic stereotypes. Women are useless and hold no value. The only reason many of the posters on here aren't republican is because of the whole gay marriage ENDA thing.

by Anonymousreply 29October 6, 2014 2:18 AM

No, R28, in the real world straight women are generally much less openly hostile to gays than straight men are.

This is well known everywhere outside the bizarre little world known as DL.

DL isn't a racist forum per se. The rampant racism probably has more to do with the fact that most of the people who post here are white males.

OP, recognize the difference between throwing shade/riffing/cunting around and racism.

A contingent here will ALWAYS head into raunchy Borscht-Belt insult humor territory when matters touching race (including whites), women (straight or gay), the transgendered, Jews, Arabs, any nationality, the tall, the short, the thin, the fat, and everything else are brought up.

Don't be sensitive.

And don't post lousy clips with pixillated genitals from bad Asian twink porn. You're asking for it and what you got was rather mild.

When I first started posting here you could tell the difference between the fun and satire and what was real racism. 2008 was the height of racism on DL. It was insane and has never really calmed down since. I will never understand the people who post links to white supremacist websites. That is deplorable.

by Anonymousreply 43October 6, 2014 3:16 AM

Sloppy open mouthed kissing is not erotic, it is lame. Not liking something because it is lame is not racist. It was the wrong clip.

There's a difference between being observant and being racist, but the "RACIST!" trolls simply won't allow or admit the possibility. White people are simply not allowed to talk about black people.

by Anonymousreply 46October 6, 2014 3:30 AM

Part of the problem is that many people confuse being nasty with being amusing. Adults have a filter and understand that just because something pops into your head, there might not be a reason to express it. Unfortunately, there are many emotionally-retarded people who are unable to understand that. And too many of them show up on Internet forums such as DL.

There is nothing sadder than an Andrew Dice Clay wanna-be.

I don't think many people are truly racist any more. For some it's probably just a rebellion from being PC'd to death for the past 20 years, to say something shocking. For other's, it's as one poster said: they are just making observations that others misconstrue as being racially motivated.

BTW, I don't trust people that try way too hard to appear as if they only see the "inner being" of everyone they meet; people are social animals which means we are hierarchal to some degree whether we like it or not.

Jew hatred on DL isn't because of "flyovers" or "ship-ins" or "outsiders". Jew hatred is accepted on DL because it's accepted in America and certainly Europe.

Oh, brother. Professional victim alert!!!

Tell me, are you Jewish? Is this over not loving Isr*el? (note how I have to type that). You sound like you have a chip on your shoulder.

You're thinking of a different web site. Any trashing of Jews leads to immediate deletion and removal of postage privileges. Even words that somehow pertain to Jews are censored. Threads about Muslims are never deleted, and threads trashing blacks remain open for lengthy periods of time. Female-bashing threads are NEVER deleted. Have you missed all our trans-bashing threads????!!! 2% of DL is anti-Jew, and most of those are just trolling - posted by those who probably found the threads through Google. To complain about Jew-hatred on DL is laughable. Others have it way worse on here. You're obviously a narcissist, which is the reason you haven't taken note of anything that doesn't pertain to yourself. I'm sure you've taken part in one or all of the following: female-bashing, Muslim-bashing, trans-bashing, black-bashing and the list goes on and on.

r57, that was obviously a joke, but carry on.

by Anonymousreply 60October 6, 2014 6:00 AM

R60 vituperatively defends his socially-inculcated RIGHT to put Jews in their place. And adds a long, completely assumptive list of rationales and guilts as justification.

Jew hatred - entrenched, endemic, and as R60 has so succinctly illustrates, always acceptable.

by Anonymousreply 61October 6, 2014 6:33 AM

R38 and R40 are racist shit stains and probably don't understand why because they think they are just being witty. R38, that wasn't funny the first 40,000 times that was posted on DL, and it won't ever be funny.
