Going forward, use of the word "tether" as a slur to address, refer to, or describe another BGOL member will subject to discipline, up to a possible ban. It will be treated as racist rhetoric, the same as when the word "monkey" is used to refer to Black people.

BGOL has always striven to celebrate and be welcoming to all Black peoples and will continue to do so. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping this hateful, divisive rhetoric off the board and helping us maintain a community that respects all Black cultures.

Absolute bullshit!! But these dusty-ass TETHERS can say all kinds of foul shit about Black Americans and our history huh?

Is the word

Akata banned too???

Of course not! But tethers can coon out and post shit like this all day!!

Why did black Americans run from the South and now running back to South again.

You muthafuckas get gentrified so often, it should be an official holiday this point.

Its definitely a culture shock relocating to America.

For a while I would fill out other and write in west Indian on anything that asked nationality.

There are no racial classifications in the west indies, (when I lived there). West Indian is a way better classification then BLACK. Tell anyone that you are West Indian they know exactly what you are talking about. Just like sometimes we say we are from the caribbean.

Technically it refers to non naturalized immigrant's children born here as US citizens to "tether" the family to the country (historically made deportation more difficult). It's racially ambiguous.
I thought I knew shit....guess I didn't know this shit. I've never heard the word ''tether'' used as a derogatory. Who got triggered by the usage of that word?

This is what I just found on Urban Dictionary...

A term used by members of the American Negro ethnic group (refered to later in history as colored, African-American, Black, FBA/ADOS) to describe African and/or Caribbean immigrants who move to America for economic opportunity using the benefits of the American Negro Civil Rights struggle while simultaneously disparaging the history, legacy, and lineage of the Negro American movement.

Exactly! See the evidence above!!

Been saying this for how many years. Does this mean no more Tariq/FBA posts?

And when will the mainstream catch on that these people are nothing but black klansmen?
The term "black klansmen" is more offensive than "tether" can or will ever be.
what prompted this
The two dudes that use the word caused a handful of immigrants to piss they pants and threaten to sue @HNIC for allowing cyberbullying .

@HNIC , you getting soft breh.... making a rule to ban a word thats literally only used by three cats -usually in defense of Black American attacks- is bad policy.

give this homo some more time to himself

Look at this tattle-telling tethering “goochie” loving bitch right here!!

That is the gooch, also known as the perineum. It's this patch of skin between your balls and your anus. Though it's small, this is possibly the most misunderstood part of human anatomy.

Last scene has a gay DP featuring wesley pipes

Carmen Hayes tries her best to swallow Wesley's huge pipe of a cock.

LOL @ wesley pipes kissing her after she sucks the other guy's dick.

That mofo kissed her right after she sucked the other dude's dick.

A new word to the Lexicon.

Tether definition :

A foreign born Black person, or who has roots in foreign countries, while they are also so called Black people, they pass as descendants of US chattel slavery, but they do not fully identify with our current and past struggles (and often side with cacs), but tether onto our lineage for the good parts, but are quick to dismiss our grievances here in America.

Examples:
  • "You neegas are lazy, you don't work hard"
  • "What white supremacy? You neegas just are complainers"
  • "I need reparations too because we came from the Islands in the 80s"

I just tagged you @HNIC in my ICONIC coon catalog thread because you obviously don't know what the fuck you're talking about, and are categorically wrong about the word tether.

I highly urge you to grow a pair of nuts and not let these crying ass tethers dupe you brah.

When these fools stop doing this to us, it looks like they are trying to steal money, but they are helping whitey out suppressing wages of us like slavery. Many of them have a strong kinship with white supremacists, slave holding, due to the riches they got from trading with whites. The United States never colonized Africa, like the Europeans, who they don't like.

Some of them tried to come up on here and attack me about Kamala, thinking she had some chance of winning. We don't want their garbage politicians or be dealing with their scams, they set up with white supremacists.

I won't use that word the same reason I don't say derogatory terms to @Dannyblueyes or @Dr. Truth who are both white, this isn't a hateful board to whites or any other group.

I have never used it on a message board and when I have used it, it was used meaning. Guess I'll have to google it as a deragatory word to see why it warrantsa rule.

a. : a line (as of rope or chain) by which an animal is fastened so as to restrict its range of movement. b. : a line to which someone or something is attached (as for security) A crewman can clip the tether of his harness to the [safety line] and leave it clipped as he makes his way forward and aft.

Wait, is that a new racial slur?
To be clear:


So all other racial slurs are ok with the exception of that word?

Im pretty sure of read every name/slur/curse word while being here.

To put further context into this:
"Today I tetxxxer my phone's wifi to my computer." So thats Ok?

But

Hey, stop being such a tetxxxer." Is not ok?

If this was April first this would make a whole lot more sense.

Good nite.

Straight-up bullshit double-standard!

It is, but this is good. Delineation is here and seeing the cut throat tactics and double standards only justifies it and helps it grow even faster. Even if words are banned here, this is just one platform, it'll be used everywhere else. :lol:

Hell, there was a movie that came out last year with that title.

HNIC leaning on censorship just speaks to how much pressure immigrants in America are under right now. A lot of uncertainty and fear. Americans of all backgrounds are less sympathetic to them and I think it's getting to them.

This is a perfect example of these people, and why they're hated so much whether they are from Africa or the Caribbean.

Us Tether" refers to the group of mysterious doppelgänger characters in the 2019 horror film "Us", directed by Jordan Peele, where the "Tethered" essentially evil versions of the main characters, acting as their "shadow selves" and attacking them throughout the movie; "Us" is the movie where you would encounter the Tethered


Ok so that's where Tariq got it.

Tether in reference to immigramts was used differently before this. That shit has no relation to white racists AT ALL.
