But I think everyone is missing the point -- the BIG picture: ALL of those topics or jokes are "unacceptable," but that's the point of SYG. But
racism, though? I feel like I'm in the Bizarro World.
Why is there a discussion to allow racism in SYG? It sounds insane. No racism should ever be allowed anywhere. Again, warn/thread ban anyone who makes racist comments or posts "ape" comments or posts "ape" gifs in SYG -- everything else can remain the same, because that's the point of SYG.
Racism is
NOT the point of SYG.

@ 'cracker' being racist or complaint-worthy.
