Hey dude. What is the deal with all the racist, sexist, and xenophobic shit? The slurs, rhetoric, and just overall “whoa” of it all? I just don’t understand the appeal, so maybe you can help us understand.

Some people come here for “drugs”, but a lot of people come for healing, or culture, or spirituality and religion, etc. for the life of me, I don’t understand the bullshit over there. How is it beneficial to anything, let alone the psychedelic community?

I say this as someone who has lived a very interesting life, filled with tons of experiences of tight community, diverse opinions, and grinding it out. I’ve seen a lot of bad shit, but sooo much good shit. You guys in OTD don’t make me cringe with the words you use, but it seems regressive.

Why is the main topic of otd.  Public racism.  it basically encourages you to be racist when you go there. 

I simply think the the sight should have one singular set of rules..  if you personally attacked people with your hateful words.  You should be put thru the banning process. And if you keep it up you get perma.  Just like the rest us of us.    I just dont agree that its OK over there but not in here. 

There's tons of topics literally billions of topics that could be discussed in an off-topic form that doesn't have to solely be centered around people intentionally being racist because they know they're in a place where they have no consequences in doing that specifically.


And the whole kill Tony thing to me is  an example of why people are getting too comfortable saying things that are hateful.

There's tons of other Comics out there preaching free speech and the right to say what they want. (Because its comedy) in their show without being canceled.
(You should be able to) 
But they're(for the most part) also not hateful racist who are walking a line just because society has regressed and accepted that they do so.  There is a difference.

Some of the comedians on kill Tony are hilarious. But man sometimes Tony really gets on my nerves because I just don't think that racism is funny.


Shane gillis  actually does an OK job at walking that line. I think. 

his show tires made me laugh alot.  But still.  Its intention and tone that matters. 

And the fact that people would choose to rather just be racist simply because the rules immediately basically say this is where you belong and so does that stuff..
All hate is  wanted and welcome here. 



Seems counter productive.

Shane Gillis cracks me up.

Anyway, if they can actually tell me why they say the things they say and why they use the wording they use, I can ignore it in peace.
