Racist crap on myspace

BobbyGrindrod [Edit] [Delete] 24 replies 13:45, 6 October '05
I just got one of those bulletins and it had a long list of names and an encouragement to add mine if I agreed with some fascist diatribe about white pride! Shocking!

      It seems a bit risky sending out far-right literature to EVERYONE on your friends list! Chances are not everyone you have added is a closet fascist. I worry about myspace..

        I've seen that, I sent a PM to the girl who put her name to it asking why she agreed with facist bullshit and why she thought I should have to see it. I even googled the passage to see where it came from, turns out it's from some white nationalist site. Disgusting.

          I replied angrily to it too. I was tempted to send it to "Tom" and get him to sort those racist bastards out!

              I just read it again, one of the celebrations they say are racist is Yom Hashoah; it's a holocaust rememberance! Ha! These fucking morons are talking through their arse.

              "but just tempted eh?" What's that supposed to mean Patricide?

              If I get any crap like this I will send them an abusive response and then delete and block them. I've reported some ho's to Tom before so I'd do that as well.

                pardon?

                it is part of the problem really - apathy and complacency. If you think it should be reported to Tom then surely you would just report it not shrug it off and make an indignant thread on DiS? It's not a dig - it just make sense to react and act not just react alone.

                  When I said I was tempted, I didn't say I had ruled it out. I actually mentioned it to see what people thought. I responded angrily to the person who sent it (a 15 yr old who likes my band - I don't think she realised the implications of the message and has since deleted it) and I will report it, but as it happens I was just leaving to go have lunch. I haven't researched the channels for complaints at myspace (I'm not even sure Tom is a real person!), hence my lack of instantaneous action. I don't think failing to fulfil a 1 hour response time can necessarily be branded apathetic and complacent.

                    well as I said it wasn't a dig - just wondering. There's stuff I could say that would be misconstrued as criticism so instead I'll say - stuff like this I'd just click on toms pic and message right away - it would take me a minute. I didn't realise you didn't know tom was real and all that other stuff about myspace.

                    You'll all be happy to know that I've now sent a complaint to customer service. I don't think Tom does all that any more. He has his "people" do that. Wow! Bet he has a cleaning lady n everything!

                        just throw them out - you can afford it.

    There's an end to that sentence isn't there?

      I didn't get this message

      probably 'cos I don't have 4597 'friends' on myspace who are all scans of the first photo in porn sequences. It's not a competition, folks
