I saw plenty. I reported them. Some got deleted and others remained because person who said was married to a brown person so gets to talk over minority woman. There was so much white supremacy dog whistling. Most of the WOC who called it out were banned because of “incivility”. You guys are going to have to be a bit more honest about the type of posts and posters you were comfortable with. GC WOC contained women of color who were banned by the main sub for calling out racism. You can either deal with the reality or continue to pretend it was never an issue and remain in the dark.

Could you give me an example?

From the sub that has been banned ? Examples were mostly white people shitting on hip hop, while turning a blind eye to misogyny in metal or some white woman trying to pretend she’s oppressed because of her conservative brown mother in law. There were people blaming Soros for certain events, women blaming Islam for certain things while trying to brush off the same issues present in Christianity. Then there were the alt right men who comfortably left their shitty white supremacy comments, going unchallenged. If you challenged them, you got banned. They were alt right because they posted on the Donald or red pill subs consistently. Overall no honest discussions. People who called it out were banned by the mods because apparently “incivility” was a bigger crime than blatant racism. They then expected people to grovel to get back in. In the end the GCWOC sub were filled with women banned because they called out racism on GC. How sad and pathetic is that? You didn’t think it was going to catch up with you eventually? When the GC sub got banned I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Cry because women’s voices were erased but part of me felt like their chickens had finally come home to roost.

Thank you for posting this - you've given me the sort of examples I was looking for.

Reading between the lines here, I think you are saying GC holds men of colour to a higher standard than it holds white men? Metal, which is predominantly white, gets a pass, while rap, which is predominantly black gets called out?

Edit: what is Soros?
