It is pretty amazing the kind of reactions you get when you question the morality of someone's behavior. It doesn't look like I'll be changing anyone's mind here, but just keep in mind how unfashionable racism became in the span of ~50 years. I'd venture a guess that participation in this "Bunny-Bashing" won't be something you'll be eager to tell your grandkids about.


Could you point out to me what 'race' Dust Bunnys are? Do you even know what racism means?

Quote:
Racism is usually defined as views, practices and actions reflecting the belief that humanity is divided into distinct biological groups called races and that members of a certain race share certain attributes which make that group as a whole less desirable, more desirable, inferior or superior.


So in the eve universe by using the term 'Dust Bunny' Am I being racist against the Minmatars? Amarrians? Caldari? or Gallente?

1. Troll

2. Of all the things to be concerned about, you pick the term "Dust Bunnies"? Have you even looked at the market where we buy and sell slaves and strippers?

3. It's role play. No one here is taking it seriously. If you take it seriously then you have issues, my friend.

Trolling is the word used to describe a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting the players. Posts of this nature are disruptive and do not contribute to the sense of community we want for our forums.



Trying to equate the term Dust Bunny with real life racism is not funny. Thread locked - ISD Type40.
