There's too much blatant racism and ignorance here all ready. If MSM wants to paint here as being a source of crazy, there is no way they will have trouble doing so. The step from crazy, neo nazi racists to violence will be an easy bridge for MSM to cross, whether there are posts/comments advocating for violence or not.

This is where the childishness of voat and all its 'nigger faggot jew' comments will come back to bite it in the ass, unfortunately.

Calling someone a nigger, faggot, or Jew isn’t calling for violence. Yeah, they could say we’re racists, conspiracy theorists, assholes, immature, etc. whatever. 🙄 Calling for violence would make their story so much better and push harder to shit down free speech sites. Besides, Q would not be encouraging us to be violent. Leave that for the Dems.

I agree its not technically the same, but do you honestly believe that the average person is going to care? The average person abhores the racist comments that are so lauded here. A quick reading of a few select posts, violence or not, and it will undermine any legitimacy of the Q movement to the average person. Optics are everything, and voat has terrible, terrible optics to normal people with mature language. Not very hard to connect such ignorant and hateful speech (regardless of its original intent here) to acted out violence in the real world.

Actually, when you get down to the level of being honest with most people, they don't actually feel that words or off color jokes are racist.

Check into it for yourself. When people feel they can be themselves, you'll see. People are just too scared to say how they really feel.

Source for this claim? Because every minority or lgbt friend I have certainly take offense to the immature racist or bigoted jokes that go around. Typically its only the racists and bigots who feign offense but then secretly enjoy them.

I don't need a source. It's anecdotal! Believe it or not. My LGBT and "minority" friends actually have senses of humor and usually have the best "gay" or "racist" jokes because society "allows" them to say them!
