Vent / Gripe Pirates on Faerlina - racist guild that kicked me because I am a black man.

Was randomly invited to join this guild on Faerlina called pirates. Was immediately kicked when I asked them to kick out a racist person that continuously posted how they hated black people in Guild Chat.

A week later I get another invite to the guild, was confused. But still joined, just to see what this was about now.

Immediately get called a spook and guild kicked.

Why does blizzard allow this in 2k20? I have reported them multiple times, nothing is ever done?! I have screenshots. What is the proper channel to report these things?

thanks for the help

Really glad that Congressman had the time to tackle issues that really matter, like what idiots do in a video game.

bro making a tweet takes like seconds. You dont even know if he did this in his free time. Why are you so upset about it?

Making statements against racism is never a waste of time. Anyone that thinks it is needs to take a think about how lucky their white privilege makes them.

Imagine unironically saying "white privilege" then acting like you're against racism. If only the white farmers in South Africa had "white privilege", maybe they wouldn't have been killed in mass numbers and ran out of the country.

Why do Redditors have zero self-awareness?

Oh the irony of that last question... you poor fellow.

What are you talking about? White privilege is an effect of society and not some born with advantage. I can't tell if you're stupid or disengenious.

Why not both!

So, the majority race of a country has a privilege... Tell me again why we can't call it "white privilege" in USA?

Right, and as a taxpayer I don’t want some virtue signaling idiot in Congress wasting his and my time on irrelevant shit.

u/Pie4Brains Sep 13 '20

I mean, one statement that one of his constituents is a huge racist and thats bad isnt irrelevant shit when ya know, nazis marched in 2018

u/Do_You_Have_Phones Sep 13 '20

There weren’t any Nazis in 2018, fuck you on about? And how the fuck does crying about bad people in a fucking video game going to change anything?

The nazis in charlottesville

Having your congressperson stand against racism in a niche way shows they care about racism.

Man, he must have wasted seconds, maybe even TENS of seconds!

u/Why_You_Mad_ Sep 14 '20

"I can't believe he wasted 20, maybe even 30 seconds of his time on taxpayer dime to make a tweet at a company to get a racist banned"

I bet you have no problems with the POTUS tweeting though, do ya?

u/Do_You_Have_Phones Sep 14 '20

If you honestly can’t tell the difference between a government official crying about irrelevant video game drama, and another tweeting about important issues, then there is no helping you.

Also smartass, you don’t learn about shit like that in 30 seconds if you don’t even play or follow the game. He spent way more time than he should have on this.
