I should point out that your reaction, and the fact that everyone except Anonymous, who only really exists as a sort of Mister Hyde, seems to agree with you, is a sign that progress has been made. It might not have percolated to the societal substratum yet, but these things take time. (Some of them haven't accepted womens vote, and that was 90-some years ago.) :suspect:

Also, quick question: What is the status on the word Negro? (useable in polite conversation?)

But I guess we're raised in this vacuum in school where racism isn't supposed to exist (MLK Jr. and Cesar Chavez fired their laz0rs and all was well), so naturally it appears shocking because it goes against what we're taught.
Basically this. It's rare to see people be so stupidly blatant about it, but the underlying sentiment isn't surprising in the least.

Dude, what the fuck is up with your avatar.

Seriously.

Time for an Obscure Internet Mememe Exam

1. Solve for x, where x = avatar

(Screencap of old bugs bunny cartoon with a carrot) + (-Bugs Bunny - carrot) + (Sonic the Hedgehog + Ring) + (-Sonic - Ring) + (Lewis from L4D + Pill bottle) = X + (Lewis from L4D + Pill bottle) + (-Demoman from TF2 - Bottle of whiskey)

This will constitute 100% of your final grade.

Ohhh.

All I see is a cartoon of a thick-lipped, bandanna-sporting black man gazing joyously at a bottle of liquor. Perhaps the INCREDIBLE FUCKING IRONY of it juxtaposed beside the subject matter in this thread is causing my brain to overload. Excitedplz

Right. The subject matter is racism. Congratu-motherfucking-lations, you now have to complain about at least 7 other incarnations of that avatar. Asylum, cycle through them.

Others are "racist" depictions of - violent baseball loving Brooklyn teens, Gun nuts Texans, War-happy Americans, outback/middle-of-freaking-nowhere-living Australians, Ex-Nazi Germans, Big Burly Russians, and sneaky French. They are also all white.

No...not usable in polite conversation, though I've heard the term used innocently by people who were just beginning to learn English.

I use the term Negro in some of my stories, mainly those set pre-1960's, when the term was acceptable and certainly more polite than nigger (I've used that word, too, though it was in a sentence spoken by a racist character in 1914 New Orleans). I'm currently writing a story set in the 1960's, and there's a fair amount of discussion of the civil rights movement, so I use black and Negro interchangeably in conversation, depending on who's speaking, but just use the word black the rest of the time.

To be fair, the Demoman is kind of a stereotype.

Ok, getting away from the Cyberwulf wank that's looming over the horizon, I'm still seriously not understanding how people think that this mindset magically vanished after the 60's.

I don't think they think it magically vanished, I think they're assuming (or maybe hoping) that society in general has made some progress with regards to racism.

I think people expect blatant racism like that to not be so..., uh obvious, particularly in a business. Racism is SO Un-PC, you know.

Given the fact that the senator is apparently considering an investigation, this should tell those pool employees that what they've done is wrong.

This. In the Age of Lawsuits, NO business should be racist like that. Yes, they have a right to refuse service to anyone, but telling them point blank it's because they're black is begging the ACLU to get involved.

I don't know, I think we're doing all right with rascism around here (Maryland). We weren't for awhile there, but here lately, since Obama was elected, there's been some lifted tension. Weird as it is, I think maybe a biracial man with a Muslim father being elected President has thrown so many people off kilter with the sheer force of the very reality, that everyone is still a little flabbergasted.

Don't get me wrong, there's still racial tension in places. Lots of it. But this is just a little too blatant to believe they thought they could get away with it. I know there are still groups like this, but posing in the form of a country club? That was so 1980.

This right?

First off I find it odd you only take offense to this incarnation of the asylum's avatar, as he's has a few others that are based off the same pic. Changing the race apparently makes all the difference despite the fact that the base of this picture was Bugs Bunny in blackface from an old Warner Bros. cartoon. When it was white Scout it was A-OKAY, but when it's black Demo it's no go. Also, since the blackface bugs became a base for various characters to express adoration over something (most common is Sonic the Hedgehog and a ring) it's lost all meaning except to the heavy-browed basement dwellers on /b/.
You also seemingly ignored Lysander's video of the character which explained about the "bandanna" and the whisky. He's Scottish, and it's a beanie that helps give the character a unique silhouette within the game. He now comes with an afro which is probably offensive to you too because a black character looking black is TOTES OFFENSIVE GUISE.
You're probably trolling, but whatevs.
tl;dr: Picture doesn't have racist connotations within the internet. Just a meme.

I still dream of society where a politically incorrect joke can be laughed at by everyone, with noone thinking much of it, but then along comes a humourless dipshit with a stick in their ass and sand in their privates.

Something is racist if there is genuine hate. Unless I missed the Medic propagating the master race, you don't have a single fucking clue what the fuck you are talking about. Laughing at stereotypes is funny, taking them seriously is not.
