!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

It's ok, some people see racism in everything. It's hard just being human if you have to constantly second guess everything just incase it might seem racist. It's only racist if it was intentional.
Meh, hard disagree. Outright intentional racism (and of other forms of hate) are terrible, but at least they’re openly visible.
The more dangerous form is the everyday unintentional ingrained beliefs that people have even against their core values, like how I am more impressed by a female programmer or the way I at first misread that meme.
It’s those that are more widespread and make it so much harder to eradicate the openly intentional hate.
