Alright, we're going to call it a day with all the Thorin drama, guys. I figured if it was about SI, onGamers, TSM, etc, it had some relevance to League but somehow you guys managed to devolve the discussion into an issue about race of all things.
Enough is enough. Let's move along now.

The issue of whether Thorin called Reginald an ape is irrelevant to the blacklist discussion, as it only occurred after the blacklist, the decision to initially blacklist was influenced by absolutely zero of the word 'ape' Furthermore Thoorin meant ape not in a racist way but rather as a insult to Reginald's appearance. Fuck, even in the Chinese lol scene Reginald is referred as 猩猩队长 meaning Captain Ape or Captain Gorilla, are you saying the chinese are racist against asians including themselves?
Chinese people are fucking racist as hell to all races, including those of the Asian subset.

From Thailand: can confirm, Asians hate nothing more than other Asians. Fuck those Asians, ruined Asia I say.

All Asians are racist as hell against other Asians not of their ethnicity.
Heck, most Eastern Asians (Chinese, Korean, Japanese) hate one another and also treat SE Asians as the Mexicans of Asia.

I don't think you know what the definition of 'racism' means, you are confusing it with xenophobism. I suggest you look it up at a dictionary. And for all intent and purposes, Reginald is perceived as being American.
P.S. I'm Asian as well so it would also do wonders for your perceived intelligence if you restricted yourself from making sweeping generalizations.

Calling Regi an Ape has been done as far back as pre season 1. It's nothing new and it's never been a racist thing. People calling it racism insult the people that are actually effected by racism.

The amount of idiots in this thread who can't distinguish between racism and xenophobism in this thread is astonishing. You do realize the word 'asian' encompass all people of asian identity, including chinese, japanese, viet etc? We got a retard epidemic at TL apparently.

Racism: the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.
Yea, I'm pretty fucking sure I'm using that word correctly. Asians are pretty racist.
Chinese is a race. Korean is a race. Japanese is a race. "Asians" is not a race. That's like saying "white" is a race. If it makes you feel better I can just write it out. Chinese are racist; so are Koreans, Japanese, and many other racial groups in Asia. It's just faster to say "Asians are racist."

PTI style with thorin would be fun but neither him nor monte are exactly the kind of people who can be brief about their opinions, they both want to be really long winded and detailed about their points so I don't think that kind of quick fire format would actually suit them.

they draw viewers, but they don't command respect and their shows are often short lived and lacking in content.

And what is the fucking definition of a race? Which definition of a race distinguishes says there is a Chinese race and a Viet race instead of saying there is an Asian race, some of Chinese national identity, some of Viet national identity? Show me one fucking definition of a 'race' that supports your usage.

Its entertaining because mike and tony are so opinionated and passionate while also being respectful, they each want to give eachother another say in the matter that they often run over the timelimit per topic, and those rants are the best parts of the show.
My point was, maybe monte and thorin aren't the best people to be running a LoL talk show. Monte is more of an analyst for a sports-center type show, and not a host, and thorin doesn't belong in serious discussion or interviews.

Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith are doing just fine and dandy.

Race: a group of people sharing the same culture, history, language, etc.; an ethnic group.
Chinese is a race. Japanese is a race. Korean is a race. "Asian" is not a race. Read a dictionary and/or take an anthropology class pls. Or just google the word.

Whatever, I'm not taking part of this retarded discussion.

Eh, anyone from the SC2 community knew that it would only be a matter of time before Thorin said something stupid.
Did not disappoint.

Also note. Chinese people are racist to other Chinese people. (due to different provinces/regions having slightly different mannerisms/culture/stereotypes).

race:
'any of the traditional divisions of humankind, the commonest being the caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negro, characterized by supposedly distinctive and universal physical characteristics. '

WHEN YOU QUOTE A FUC.... DICTIONARY READ IT CAREFULLY
(no longer in technical use) any of the traditional divisions of humankind, the commonest being the caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negro, characterized by supposedly distinctive and universal physical characteristics.
"NO LONGER IN USE" is what stands in front of YOUR DEFINITION
