So it has happened again. Games Done Quick is in another controversy, but this time, there are no winners. After Goldeneye 007 speedrunner RWhiteGoose was found to have been sharing some troubling opinions on his Discord, GDQ eventually permabanned him. However, who exposed it (the infamous Cyberdemon531) might have not done so in good faith, and it once more calls into question why the popular speedrunning marathon keeps getting into this situations that they can never seem to come out completely unscathed from.

NOTE: It took me a while to decide as to whether to make this video, as I do most times when these sort of issues come about. I know that the subjects are sensitive, and that these issues can be a mine field that people cannot survive through if they choose to wade through it. I took as careful of a path as I possibly could, and I ask that those people please understand that I do not condone any sort of bigotry in any form. The purpose here is to understand the scope of the situation and to get my viewpoints off my chest.
