(WARNING: Offensive Material) AOL hate profiles. For those of you who think racism and hatred is just an urban myth, here's concrete proof that it is very much real.

Does anyone actually think racism and hatred are urban myths?

That was my reaction too.

No offense, but this is stupid and rather obvious. Flagged.

Bigotry sucks. Also, Nazis are evil. Further, the sun came up today.

I don't know what the point of this post is.

Before the got rid of them, to, uh, "make them better for you", the Yahoo! News messageboards were full of people like this. Only get this, their profiles and messages were all about killing liberals.

But yeah, who thinks racism and hatred are urban myths?

Thank you, good citizen. We never would have found this out without your help. Minorities everywhere will sleep soundly tonight.

I thought hatred was a suburban myth, and racism was a cowboy.

Boy, has this opened my eyes.

Boy these guys are giving racism a bad name!

Naw, racism is an urban myth. I saw it on Snopes.

Also, calling your profile "Hitler" and putting "Killing jews" for occupation really does not make you racist. It's an extremely misguided attempt at humor.

The last update to that site was in 1999. Does AOL still even have member profiles?

The random scribblings of 12-year-olds on AOL does shit all to provide "concrete proof" of anything in anyplace ever.

The majority of the profiles looked to me like "HAY GUYZ LOOK AT ME I CAN BE REALLY OFFENSIVE LOL". Stupid, sure, but not really racist.

And, uh...best of the web?

Internet consulting firm that uses Frontpage 2000 and graphics from 1996? That's the real offense in all this.

Online profiles are very far from "concrete proof."

Looks like the kind of shit a nine-year-old scrawls on the wall of the bathroom stall at school. Real scary shit.

One urban myth down. Now for an AOL profile testifying survival after consumption of Zots and Soda.

Looking a bit more closely, it's the Americablog guy's old site. I guess he left it up for sentimental reasons after joining the weblog revolution...

Aravosis himself is pretty relevant to the current online world. He was central to outing Gannon, for instance.

I flagged it as "offensive content", just for the sake of irony.

Well, I will no longer refute blacks, jews, and homosexuals when they say they are discriminated against. AOL has opened my eyes!
