I guess my point is that it's not all of us. I don't know the history behind black face, but I suspect one person reported it, some people landed on the side of "BAN HIM" and it was done. I don't think we should all be painted with the same brush.


Yeah, I don't remember the discussion trending that way tbh. I remember the sides being split more or less down the middle.

Yeah, as far as avis go, there was a lot of people on both sides of the black face debate. There was a beautiful split over the famous "piss jesus" avi too. But I don't remember any discussion over the nipple avis.

Yeah, that's my point - all users shouldn't be lumped together into one category "Americans who only care about Americans."

I didn't lump American's together; I was saying that this site believes that American's sensitivities matter more than any other group's. I wasn't saying that Americans feel that way.

You are gauging this by the decisions? The Totenkopf ruling didn't come to term since the user removed it on his own. I'm not sure about the others, I wasn't here for most of them.

You said "us as a group" which I took to mean all of us. I disagreed with that characterization.
