User Banned (2 Months): Minimizing Racism Over Multiple Posts
No, why would you think that? Did I write that?
It just seemed he switched a word on a recent trending hashtag to garner some attention. The backlash he got is clear as a day but I didn't know the dude so I just said that it may be just a stupid thing he said.
Racism sucks but this whole thing sometimes seems like a witch hunting from someone outside of the US. (the last sentence is not based on your comment)
you literally said " stupid word switcheroo on the hashtag? ", so blacklivesmatter instead of watermelonlivesmatter.
"I can't be racist, all of my favorite video game characters are black"
He fucking knew what he was saying. You can't claim ignorance just because you're outside USA
Boris Johnson says 'watermelon smiles' remark was 'wholly satirical'
‘The quotations have been wrenched out of context,’ claims Tory frontrunner on notorious column

Racist pieces of shit always claim it's satire or a joke
Yep. Raging a-hole. Some folks wanna act like he's being a heel but no. That IS him, no persona or act, just him.
Will those in charge of EVO ban him or remain incompetent during these historical times?
Do the right thing and show everyone the message of a better future, Joey Cuellar.

You'd think these people would learn to not say stupid shit if for no other reason then to preserve your career.
How shitty do you have to be to think you'll get away with this?

What the hell nonsense are you spewing? It's fine if you're proud of your ignorance but keep it to yourself.
I mean real talk, you have people who started off as kids going to lives and streaming, with 0 media training for decades.
Of course they would show their ass during a highly charge national crisis. More so when they don't really care. More so when they have a history of showing zero empathy about anything. More so when you're in an environment where showing any sort of weakness or compassion labels you as soft and inferior.
Expect more of this.
He's been irrelevant for some time now but this will probably put a definitive end to his career.
Beat me to it. Was just about to to post about fried chicken.
I'm always reminded of that Dave Chapelle skit about being genetically predisposed to liking fried chicken.
As for the topic....I guess some ppl just dont give a fuck about their sources of income.
The true marks of any idiot, of any ne'er do well, or any cretin are these 2 things: they don't possess an ounce of humility and they can't stay quiet...it is proven.
A piece of shit playing video games being a piece of shit outside of video games? Who would have known!?
Sometimes when I feel bad I go watch that match. It's so goddamn cathartic and Yipes' commentary only makes it better.

All the Evil Genius clique from that time and well before were pieces of shit / protected other pieces of shit. Fchamp, Ricki Ortiz, JWong, PrRog, all of them. Nobody held them accountable of anything.
I wish those days were gone, but Chris G is still there and kicking, and I know nothing of consequence will happen to MikeZ either.
FChamp's always been a shitty person, so yeah, not surprised he's showing his ass again.
Hopefully Joe tacking action aets an example for other TOs to follow.

Yipes is a pretty stand up dude as far as I'm aware
"Not cool" is all people can say sometimes huh
Well at least some TOs are taking action
Not surprised. Hes been a douche for a while and it's nice to see someone take some action. Wonder when Chris G will be held accountable
