Just wondering. Please discuss this question amongst yourselves. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/42705-racism/

I am asking as an individual outside of this community. If you sing those lyrics, Is it racism? Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/42705-racism/#findComment-555605

Saxe Posted June 3, 2011 Content Count: 1158 Joined: 12/23/07 Status: Offline Share Posted June 3, 2011 We had quite some lengthy discussions about it in the Rules Discussion subforum: http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/rules-discussion/44323-issue-racism.html http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/rules-discussion/46160-question-censored-words-racism.html But about your question. We have a zero tolerance policy against certain words in SG to avoid having to deal with grey areas. Do I consider the word offensive in your context, no - but I am still satisfied with our policy, makes our life so much easier. Edit: Damn, didn't see your response. It depends on your company, but I would say no. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/42705-racism/#findComment-555618

I remember when parents had a heart attack when their kids sang "like a virgin". since ur singing a song i wouldnt consider it racist tho. there many older songs that would have been scrutinized if they had come out in todays world. I've yet to see anyone go back and censor older songs tho. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/42705-racism/#findComment-555648
