I'll actually put in a statement later or continue to edit this one until the thread ends up being locked, but simply shortening it to keep my opinion in general:
Raider's profile pictures
Yes, They can be distasteful.
However, it is something I consider to be nonmalignant racism.
It is not evil in nature.
I have or you have laughed or appreciated dark humor at once in your life. You can make or enjoy plenty of jokes about the Nazi regime, human genocide, slavery, or other well known atrocities. But the type of racism that we should be solely focused on dealing with is racism is racism that is explicitly directed to players that are on the servers and communities or racism intended as a means of trolling or annoying our playerbase, which is in the end why we deal with racist trolls on the server.. This is in the end (parroting cactus and other staff and nonstaff) a gaming community centered on a cluster of gmod gamemodes intended for the enjoyment of multiple people. I'm actually gonna have to agree with Thunder and Damester and semi-agree with Raider. This is an issue that is being blown out of proportion and I believe that this is an overly sensitive reaction.
I honestly don't care if I'm being hypocritical, but this is how I feel on the matter.
We barely deal with actual honest to god racists that would harass playerbase, we deal with trolls that act racist to get a reaction or stir shit up and annoy players on the server, that's the type of people staff deal with.
