No, that was his other brother, the one with epilepsy. That guy was hilariously bizarre. He was a normal straight guy but he would have seizures that made him yank down women's pants and stuff. To be fair, not a great deal of an improvement on his self-controlled pedo brother's predicament.
You gotta wonder about some families, WTF. They showed R. Crumb's son in that movie and he seemed really healthy and normal. I wonder what the hell happened to the previous generation.

R. Crumb's son seemed really healthy and well-adjusted, though, even though his father was a consummate weirdo and his uncles were completely fucked-up and insane. Makes you wonder.

His mom seemed really cool, too. R. Crumb's mom was a total bitch.

>Its creepy to see blind hatred like in this thread, hatred not even directed against the actions of someone but their THOUGHTS.
I agree, its creeping big brotherism. So you would never punish anyone for their thoughts or for discussing something you are against?

There is a big difference between having thoughts and voicing them on a messageboard with rules 
I'm not nearly as banhappy as you might think I am. I banned 15 people this year, the majority for administrative reasons. Of those, 7 permabans, all for administrative reasons like spammers, ban requests, illegal trades, etc.

What are the rules against expressing ones thoughts? They seem to be unwritten.

If those thoughts are racism and you do it in the Pub, there may be a conflict with the "absolutely no racism" rule.
Interestingly, in your long career of getting banned, I never banned you once. Don't believe the hype.

IMO there are not nearly enough bans getting handed out in the pub. The racism in particular has gotten extremely bad, because the shroomery has swallowed the myth of colorblindness hook, line, and sinker. Moderators don't seem to understand that a post can be flagrantly, obviously racist, even if it doesn't use racial slurs or directly assert racial superiority/inferiority.

I never said you were a bad guy, asante. You seem fairly reasonable. The mods should follow your example.
Then we see those calling for bans on anyone who disagrees with them.

I wish the Shroomery was so big we could compensate our moderators financialy. Right now its all volunteer work and they do a fine job, for the most part. Everyone has his off days though, like me and my love & unity sticky

thing is, you can't ban people for being confused.

We're not talking confusion here, we're talking obvious, directly stated racism that doesn't conform to the incredibly narrow definition of racism posited by colorblindness.
