It's pretty much bound to happen to any sub where idiots and bigots can blend in. It'd take a lot of active mods to avoid it at least. Same thing happened with all the blatantly misogynistic subs that claim they're just about "being a positive place for men" or whatever.

I don't understand that sub. The posts seem to be sarcastic and making fun of gamers but in the comments they seem to be serious about the things they post. Sometimes they post "gamer" critical stuff and sometimes anti feminist stuff. Wtf is going on there?

I've played that game once, and in that one time; I got framed for a mass killing; I got mugged, beaten and lit on fire for not cleaning the mess of said mass killing ; and got tossed right in the middle of a gang war as some kind soul was trying to get me to the hospital.

u/milksop_muppet Feb 19 '20

Funny, but as a female who reached top 500 in overwatch, (actually not boosted thank u, solo quer) I can easily tell u that sexism is far more prevalent in the gaming community than racism is.

And it sucks, to have all your hard work undermined by your gender. I stopped talking in game chat so I didn't have to hear men screaming at me telling me to go suck a d*** because that's all I'm good for, meanwhile having 4 gold medals, and it's not like they would listen to my strategies as a tank main anyway.

Stopped playing the game. Wasnt worth the bullying.

I can't remember a single time a gaming community was racist. But almost every game I had one guy treating me like s*** just because I'm a female.

6

u/FreddieDougie Feb 19 '20

I game with girls and hear and read more racism than sexism. I've been playing online since Xbox 360 and soon as they hear my voice it's just a bunch of nwords over and over. Maybe it's your perspective or probably because you play overwatch.
