How many times have you heard the following:
"I'm going to jew it up this evening"
"Ra have a low of Jew moons"
"I'm headed to Jew town to pick up a new ship"
"I jewed the guy down to 100mil isk"
may not be racism, but it is bigotry.
And yes, CCP DOESN'T CARE.

 What kinda corp are you in
This is common in most corps in 0.0 politics. Goons, Pandemic Legion, Razor, Triple A. Listen to any state of the Goonion you'll hear it, head over to scrapheap you will also see it in nearly every thread that talks about money. Sit in Jita for a bit and you'll see it, watch trade chat and its there to. Not sure where yall have been not to see it...

Case and point really, I think even named Razor previously as completely accepting of bigotry. |

Its (pretty much) a free world. People have different views, they should be allowed free reign to express those views (for the most part). Besides most racism comes from the races that are doing the whining then from those who it is claimed against.
My examples show this to be true...wait...what? No They are just heinously disparaging remarks towards a group of people.

I guess the point is, you can be a racist/bigot in real life, but what place does that vileness have in an a game?

You are so hypersensitive that I became a bigot without making a single racial remark. DAMN you're good.
Sorry, should call you a "Supporter of Biggotry" not actually a bigot, just some one that makes bigotry alright. I can see the difference and why its important. |

No, I don't support bigotry. What I am saying, is that if everyone whined all day about what offends them, or what they don't like, or what they prefer people not to say or do, nothing would ever get done.
You can sit there all day and complain about how you see racist remarks, or encounter racism in your day to day EVE life. Tbh, I don't give a ****. I do too. So does everyone, that is life. Get over it. Move on.
That is my point. Quit worrying about what other people are saying and doing, and just live your life.
SOOoooo, if you haven't really gotten my point yet: Quit crying like a little *****.
Atleast you completely support the thought that Eve is full of bigots and racism, and no one cares. Which is the point of the entire thread. Eve is quite easily the most racist and bigoted mmo on the market.
I don't think there is a place for that repugnant vituperation any where in the world, let alone in a game that people play for fun. I guess I give credit to fellow capsuleers and think that they deserve the common decency I would afford even the most repulsive human I meet face to face. I guess some people think its fine to **** on any one, any where, as long as there aren't consequences, and I'm not like that.

I don't understand. No on in game knows what race I am so it's not possible for them to be racist.
If some one called you a Lazy ****ing mexican, regardless of what race you are, they are still racist against Mexicans. You just get to dodge the directed insult. Just because they were wrong about your race, doesn't make it any less racist.

threads like this are awesome if for no other reason that they point out how stupid political correctness is.
Its not even political correctness that its about..it is about not being a complete douche bag :]
btw: Offical CCP policy is Here
Though as noted above, CCP only enforces such things when backed into a corner...and punishment for such things...well lets be honest, if they were severe we wouldn't be having this discussion as every one would know it wasn't allowed.

I guess the consensus is very clear, Bigotry is rampant in eve, and no one cares not even CCP.
Seems pretty cut and dry.

Its funny.. I've always had this mental image of some eve players being the typical 4chan reading, white, lower-middle class background and somewhat socially ******ed nerds that think jewish and black jokes are funny and well worth the 'lulz' (say like googling 'black jew' then posting that saying its them, as that would somehow be so funny on its own). Its good to see that I'm wrong and your not that kind of pathetic loser 
I've always been under the impression that only small portions of eve are of the 4chan type...it only takes a very small number of true idiots to make large groups of people look bad.

it happens
welcome to humanity
you will never stop it so why bother focus on something more important that hes a rasist
Pacifism never gets you anything, Vigilance how ever does.
The core here is that every one recognizes that this bigotry is wrong, but most people are saying there is nothing that can be done. Well, if CCP steps up to the plate they could do wonders.

One gets tired of self-righteous arbiters of good behavior. They offend my sensibilities more than racists.
Kind of like hall monitors....
As far as I understood Hall Monitors, like other officials of rules and regulations. The only time you have any interaction with them, is when you are doing something wrong? |

Not true due to the fact that dueschbag hall monitors such as yourself are constantly looking to find someone doing something wrong. To the point where you accuse innocents. Go bother another MMO.
It looks like a duck, smells like a duck, quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, flys like a duck, swims like a duck....there for its obviously a 747, and not a duck...right?

Thats certainly a good point. In fact,here in the US,not only do people us the brand of racism to smear those that dont agree with their policies,racists themselves have learned that its actually effective to call people a racist. Are you a black man that complains because you have had several run ins with the police that call you a n&*(%#? Your a black racist that hates whites. Are you a hispanic that suggests that your life experience dealing with discrimination gives you a unique perspective on how bad it really can be that white people never having experienced it) might not have? Your a racist that hates white people.
That is not entirely true, if I see some one call some one a "stupid ****** ***got" and then go burn a cross on their lawn. That person is a bigot, I doubt any one can argue that he isn't.
And I think you'll note that I have conistantly differed to the less emotionally charged, yet still accurate word of bigot. I think this should clue you into the fact that I'm not the target of any on the bigotry yet given as an example. I still recognize when something is wrong, and don't feel inhibited by peer pressure to say that something is in fact wrong.
