Chemotherapy for PC
USMB first tried to control race discussion by creating a special section for it.
Then that section became wildly popular. Don't know the stats, but it looks like a big draw to me... and probably results in a lot of the views that make USMB ads viable.
Too popular?
Now, it's in the "Taunting Arena" or whatever, alongside "Conspiracy Theories."
Hmmm.
Where else can it go? A subsection of the "Food and Wine" section?
My query is, if racial discussion is so awful, why not just ban it? And anyone who takes an un-PC view, like me? That's what all the other discussion boards do. Then "conservatives" can get back to talking about what a great guy Bush is and "liberals" can resume their discussion of how Christians control America.
Because obviously, USMB doesn't like the race talk. So why play games?
Just ban it.
And hope that nobody too inquisitive thinks about the implications too deeply...
