Please do not threaten or make a threat of violence against Cracked writers or offer money for assault.

Damn PC Police always spoiling our racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-furry, cisgendered fun. (I take everyone got that that is a joke, right? Ironically, I got a red line under cisgender and it recommended endangered as a replacement which according to the way, way, way, way out there people on both sides is what they believe will/could happen if we aren't all good God (of their faith) fearing, straight people who only enjoy missionary with the lights off.)

... So opposing political correctness to the extend that McKinney (the guy who calls people sexist for preferring 'equalitarian' over 'feminist') holds it, means I am anti-diversity (what the hell?), racist, sexist, a supporter of the Confederacy (no seriously what the hell? My current country was a slavery empire, I don't need a foreign one to root for.), and quite possibly homocidal because why not.

I should stay away from Cracked. If it wasn't Cracked, I would prepare one of my longer entries for the Social Justice Thread, but we have some writers on here and they could take it as an insult. I will take my rage, put it in a box, and walk away.

I feel like the demographics of the comment section on these types of articles has been shifting since I last paid attention (like a year ago?). Even some of the top voted comments' scores are a third or more downvotes. It seems more...divided? I'm having a hard time englishing today. Maybe it's all in my head.

I haven't been here long so I don't even know who writes for Cracked and who doesn't on here. The thing is, you shouldn't have to feel you need to censor yourself so that a writer might not feel insulted. Cracked doesn't have a problem insulting their readers or censoring dissenting comments, so shouldn't this be a place where we can post counterpoints to what they say without censoring? If they can't handle it then that's their problem. Go ahead and post what you're thinking, you never know, you might, just might (if they don't have their heads up their asses and feel anyone holding an opposing opinion is their enemy) make a point they never thought of before. Discourse is the only way we can get anything done in this world, you know?

Don't forget schooling people in shooting, rape-shooting, shoot-raping, and schooling people in those things.


And school raping.

First you guys miss my birthday, and now you think I'm trolling. I guess I should be as sad as D-LOGAN.

Punch jokes contribute to punching culture.

Fixed.

Additionally, a website which complains about JF Sargent a lot is in danger of being seen as a threat to JF Sargent. This is clearly something we do not want. The last person to threaten JF Sargent was a gamer, and now JF Sargent has vowed to write anti-gamer articles forever as revenge. Much like anti-terrorism measures, these articles only perpetuate the cycle of evil and inspire more people to become gamers. That's not what we want, right? More gamers? I can't believe the world I live in. I don't know why anyone would want that. You people sicken me.

Please re-read our rules section. Posting what ever you want and expecting no censorship is not a part of it.

It's also one thing to say I really don't care for their articles and another thing to be completely insulting. It's one thing to say if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen but I'm pretty damn sure that reading 1000 comments about how you suck because someone didn't like what you wrote is pretty damn irritating.
