darkphoenix181 08/18/17 11:53:32 AM #7:	@Mernardi like many who use this joke might have thought the way pewdiepie did before the events last week https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/400-current-events/75679191 "I remember back when everything happened in February, I was sort of like, 'I mean, they're just jokes. There's not actual Nazis out there, what are you talking about?' And then I look at this, and I'm like, 'Oh, I see. OK!'" When we joke about PC master race we do so with the idea that there isn't a huge group of people literally advocating for a real master race. But that has changed. --- sigless user is me or am I? <cite>darkphoenix181 posted [p:885005056] in now that l...
