This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Racism and Gnomes?

Gnomes obviously aren't racist themselves, they hate all of mankind equally.  But I could see Gnomes, figuring that "divide and conquer" is a good strategy, could try to use human racism as a tool to further their goals; and possibly to cover up their crimes.

I am a little insulted that so many people called the same article to my attention this week, because it is completely racist. If you haven't heard yet, one of the world's preeminent scientists, James Watson, has claimed that African Americans are less intelligent than Caucasians. He even stooped so low as to say, "all our social policies are based on the fact that [African American] intelligence is the same as ours — whereas all the testing says not really...people who have to deal with black employees find this not true." According to Matt (the third person to call my attention to the story in the past four days), Dr. Watson has also recommended genetically testing for gayness and sub-intelligence so that mothers can abort undesirable children. Well, if he gets his wish, at least we don't have to look forward to a future as bleak as the one in Idiocracy, or one with an overabundance of glitter, amyl nitrate, neon colors and fucking fabulousness

I'm starting to wonder if Denialmark isn't just a spammer?
