    I’m sorry I legit had no idea. I just thought it was a way to talk about cave men. I mostly associate it with my friend who played elden ring and went full physical.

      So you’re claiming it’s just a Heated Gamer Moment that required a racism? Never heard that before! doubt heated-gamer-moment

        What? I’m just saying that the original post said troglodyte. When I googled that it said cavemen. Then I remember when elden ring came out people were making “unga bunga” jokes. If we really want to get technical the first time I heard that phrase was in a SNES game called Chuck Rock where you played as a caveman. Please explain to me how this is racist because I’m drawing blanks, since you made the claim.

          Yeah, surely just cavemen with no other context and no political ideology tied to freeze-gamer culture. It came out of a vacuum, woven of pure wholesome gamer mirth.

          Please explain to me

          Instead of even considering that it it already has been recognized as a racist dogwhistle, you’re going there? Christ.

            Sure, ok whatever you caught me I’m just a racist piece of shit because you said so. I don’t even know what the culture you’re talking about is. I provided my side and reasoning. At this point I’m assuming you’re just fucking with me.

            Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity

            You literally made an accusation provided nothing to support your claim, assumed I even use 4chan, and when I explained my reasoning you made even further accusations. I wanted to have a productive conversation and find out from you why you think it’s racist because I don’t know I’d rather not be racist.

              you caught me

              I did.

              You’re doing racist shit while pretending to not only have never known the racist context but also refuse to acknowledge every single person that already said “that’s fucking racist.”

              I wanted to have a productive conversation

              No you didn’t. You said edgy racist shit early on and then cowered backward from there like the crybully you are.

                Only you and one other person said that. Who is everyone, I don’t know how I can be more genuine. I even didn’t Google searched the phrase by itself and could only find the very first instance of it being Bugs fixing Bunny being racist but words evolve and change. I think I’m gonna block this instance entirely since everyone here seems to be angry fuckheads. Cavemen aren’t inherently racist. The introduction of it as a meme has no basis in racism. Stop putting words in my mouth. So yeah I live in a vacuum because I don’t like to hang out in hate dens and try to generally good to people. I did give valid reasons and responses you’re just an asshole. So this is my reaction.

                  Again, instead of correcting yourself and moving on you’re writing paragraphs of crybully blubbering because your racist dogwhistle was called out as the racist dogwhistle it always was.

                  For all you pretend to be an innocent smol bean that had no idea that what you said was racist, you shot down your own pretending attempt by refusing to even consider not saying that racist dogwhistle in the future and instead are going full debatebro about it.

                  I think I’m gonna block this instance entirely

                  That’s the only good thing you can possibly contribute here, so go for it! party-parrot

                    Read my post history then, see what type of person I am through that and not a fucking shitty Internet joke from 3 years ago. Why would I backtrack and apologize for something I don’t understand? If I did offend anyone I’m truly sorry and please let me know if you were offended.

              Don’t worry about it. That user has a tendency to misinterpret communication and then stick to that argument, nitpicking select parts of what you write in order to unveil whatever it is he believes you’re conceiling from him. Best thing to do is just not engage.
              It’s great when it’s against chuds, but then again it often ends up just being someone who disagrees with him about a minor thing.

                He seems like a great advocate for this instance. /S

                I decided not to forsake an entire instance because of one person. He’s too hypocritical so I’m probably just gonna block him if he engaged with me again.

                  I mean, I’m glad people aren’t letting bigotry slide, but yeah it’s not super nice how a misunderstanding can devolve to weird antagonism. I’m sorry that happened to you.

                    I do wish they’d at least acknowledge that they jumped to conclusions like I tried to explain. More for them then me.
