I mean $tor**%ro^^. Here's where I noticed.
I decided to look up the significance of Seahawks player Marshawn Lynch and the association with "skittles" and also the history of skittles, looking to find some kind of esoteric clue. I ran across a $tor**%ro^^ page and just for the fuck of it, decided to click -- actually not click but copy, paste link and go. Guys, shit is way more racially tame there than an any old story on any old whistle stop of a news site that attracts commenters from racists. I didn't delve too far in, but their shit they're talking about is actually a lot like the shit you can find anywhere from a winger, but more, ugh, astute. Sure, when you associate yourself with $tor**%ro^^ in any way it means, yeah, you're a racist sack of shit. But the weird sting of about ten years ago on is gone! (from what I saw) It's been mainlined!
In a phrase: $tor**%ro^^ exists everywhere! The words of hatred are dangerously (seemingly) gone from their official online fort. You find more racism and hatred on your local TV news website comments section than I saw there.
My memory of these assholes is that they were always certain to do violence. Now they just chat, kind of like we do. That's the way it seemed at least. Some hold on to their "spooky" wite rayce symbology in their avatars, but the thrust seems to be discussion and again, it seemed to be more tame than your local TV news trolls. These aren't the violent racist assclowns of my youth anymore. Any ideas of why this may be?
For instance, nobody fears being "curbed" any more and Doc Marten's are fashionable. 20 years ago, one couldn't wear them. I did and tested my luck. What is this phenomena?
