It's a message board. Every thread isn't about meaningful discussion. Some are total fluff. Some are entertainment. Some could be about important topics IF they were actually allowed to be so.
Completely hypocritical to say this is off limits but yeah I'm good with dissing those freaking long nose, pond sucking Kikes.

No one is arguing the above bolded ridiculous straw-man position. Everyone agrees (I hope) that posts or threads that affirm or perpetuate historic stereotypes and prejudices based on unchangeable inherent personal characteristics (race, religion, age, gender, sexuality, etc.) are totally abhorrent and unacceptable. However, posts or threads criticizing Israel's policies or actions in Gaza, for example, or American gun policies, are perfectly legitimate (unless they become the former.)
