They say "the internet is ugly"...

The internet is the collective human brain and the users are the neurons firing back and forth.

We live in an era where we can read people's minds and it turns out to be disturbing at times.

I had to rep this....so much truth in this statement....

And note how the last straw wasn't even anything to do with racist comments, but a gif.

The comment section to websites have been looking like that for years. Even some of the stories I'm sure were posted only to get that kind of reaction in the comments section.

What about whites posing as Mexicans saying racist shyt or the ole "I'm black but" trick?

fukk freedom of speech. I HOPE OTHER SITES DO THE SAME.

If people are going to use those freedoms to spout idiotic non-sense then shut that shyt down. I shouldn't have see some racist spouting N-words on a youtube about a cute black puppy walks down stairs. They are privately owned so they should do them.

Thats why they have messageboards.

PLEASE don't adopt this mentality unilaterally.

Cause based on sheer statistics, this doesn't help us.

Another site axes it's comments section and it's not surprising what site it is







http://www.mediaite.com/online/st-louis-post-dispatch-turns-off-comments-because-of-ferguson/

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch announced Monday morning it was turning off its comments section for the next two months as an experiment in civility.

Why?

“Ferguson,” the paper explained bluntly.

“We intend to use our opinion pages to help the St. Louis region have a meaningful discussion about race. So we are going to turn off the comments in the editorial section for a while, and see what we learn from it,” the editors wrote. “Comments might return to the opinion pages. Or we might find that without them, the discussion — through letters, social media conversations and online chats, rises to a higher level.”

The paper has been at the center of the tumult following the shooting death of Ferguson teenager Michael Brown and the grand jury’s decision not to indict officer Darren Wilson.

“It’s not that we don’t want to hear from those who disagree with us” the editors wrote. “Quite the contrary. Every day we publish letters from people criticizing our editorials, and we engage in discussions on Twitter and Facebook about the things we write. We believe those venues offer a safer, more civil place to talk about the racial injustice that dominates the Ferguson discussion.”
