I don't know if it was a shift or it was always this way. I only noticed it last year with the_donald stuff blew up. I would've guessed the userbase in imgur and reddit skew younger. ostensibly younger people would lean left and more tolerant wouldn't they?

Serious question: Are you new to the Internet?

Nah. Racism isn't tolerated here, but is pretty thick on Imgur.

It has way more in common with Reddit, which isn't surprising considering it exists because of Reddit in the first place.

I meant half this forums content is gifs and jpegs which are hosted on imgur, so goons are a large part of their userbase...
Of course the better part, but still.

Apart from the bar code pic. That was somewhat funny.

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
what do you propose we do about this situation, OP? is there some sort of taskforce, or group of people we can contact? i would like to let the internet police, or 'cyber cops' know about this

A post of a '_black person__' telling everyone that black people are the ones that commit the most crime, don't know how to act properly, some tripe about how black people are self-destructive, something negative about black culture, or some other message about shaming black people into submission. More often than not, the post is from a fresh new account and never posts against after that.

I don't give a poo poo about imgur but this is one of my least favorite things on the internet. You know shithead racists file this stuff away in a box labeled "definitive proof" alongside dusty signed photographs of Bill Cosby ranting about pulling your pants up.

I feel bad for this guy even though he has lovely taste in "internet communities" because it must suck to see a place you really enjoy slowly become more and more hostile to the concept of you as a human being but oh well I guess its time to migrate over to 9gag, I'm sure they're tolerant as gently caress.
