A lot of people, particularly sports reporters, have been trying to do that for years, particularly centered around Dave Portnoy's general assholery.

Also, Big Cat is a pretty blatant Bears fan, so it's telling that he was able to suck so many people in with that obvious troll.

Not sure if I'd said this here before, but someone could make a killing in followers by creating an Unwoke 90s account that ups all the problematic content, real or exaggerated, from that decade and its fringes on both ends. Wouldn't be surprised if it already exists.

I recently saw the 90s referred to as the "late 1900s" and I literally did a spit take.

Does this have anything to do with the NFL hiring Snoop and Dr. Dre for the SB halftime show?

That could be a fun intersection of finally giving some of the most successful black entertainer of their generation a major stage against whatever problematic things they were saying/doing in the 90s.

90's video game ads are indeed problematic.

This image, however, appears to have originated earlier this month on r/banvideogames...a 4chan-swarmed satircal subreddit full of nazi imagery, n-word references, and dumb jokes about Minecraft teaching kids to farm opium.

Interesting life you lead there, Burt.

I wouldn't say problematic (I wouldn't ever say problematic since I hate that stupid word), but the aggression of 90s video game ads is certainly weird.

Boston Pride. Background on what lead to Boston Pride being cancelled, https://quillette.com/2021/10/13/the-im ... s-to-come/

Statement from Boston Pride

Posted: July 9, 2021 4:30pm
For years, we have volunteered our time with Boston Pride because we care about and are passionate about the LGBTQIA+ community. We strived to foster an environment of diversity and unity within our organization and the community. Over the past 50 years, Boston Pride has facilitated programs and events that have changed our society and promoted equality, but we know there is still work to be done.

Over the past year, we have invested time and energy to address the concerns of the community, both with our Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Access work with Dorrington & Saunders and by forming the Transformation Advisory Committee comprised of members of the LGBTQIA+ community to help bring change to our organization. We are grateful for all who have been involved in this process.

It is clear to us that our community needs and wants change without the involvement of Boston Pride. We have heard the concerns of the QTBIPOC community and others. We care too much to stand in the way. Therefore, Boston Pride is dissolving. There will be no further events or programming planned, and the board is taking steps to close down the organization.

We know many people care about Pride in Boston, and we encourage them to continue the work. By making the decision to close down, we hope new leaders will emerge from the community to lead the Pride movement in Boston.

This decision was made with a heavy heart, out of love and hope for a better future.

-Boston Pride Board of Directors
Think I’m going to try being kind to everyone a chance.
