Barely a week ago, the Texas-based gay adult studio ChaosMen featured Basil, a solo performer with a confederate flag tattoo on his right arm. Now, just a few days after a white supremacist shooter killed down 22 people and injured 24 others in El Paso, the same studio has featured Basil again … only this time they’ve paired him with a black guy (link NSFW) — they’ve gotta be trolling us, right?
His scene partner Jerome is identified as half black and half white on his ChaosMen profile page.

When asked last week by the gay adult industry website Str8UpGayP*rn why ChaosMen owner Bryan Ockert chose to feature a model with a tattooed symbol of white supremacy, Ockert didn’t respond. But by releasing this second scene, the studio has shown that it either doesn’t care or that it considers such content profitable.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Perhaps we should give Basil and Ockert the benefit of the doubt? After all, while the confederate flag is undoubtedly a symbol of hate that was re-popularized by white southerners who opposed racial integration, some people ignorantly get them thinking that they just signify pride in their Southern roots.
Also, it’s probably not the case that gay and bisexual white supremacists are specifically seeking out performers with racist tattoos to get totally turned on while fixating on their tattoos.
But pairing a guy with a racist tattoo with a black scene partner is at the very least taboo and might appeal to both racists and those with a race play fetish. After all, there are many gay adult videos that focus on white men being dominated by “black thugs” (ugh) and vice-versa.
Either way, Ockert and his studio can’t ignore the politically charged social climate surrounding his productions. And one wonders whether he’ll eventually remove Basil’s scenes — the same way mainstream gay adult studio Sean Cody did with Zane, its performer with a similarly racist tattoo — or just continue to generate clicks and controversy by continuing to feature him.

Yeah, he has “Master Race” written all over his inbred face.

I’m not surprised. This is what ignorant/racist studio owners do thinking it clears the model of any wrong doing. Paul Canon did interracial work after saying he’s “not sexually attracted to colored people”. JD Phoenix filmed with Rafael Alencar after saying he wouldn’t sleep with black, Asian, or Latino men on or off camera because they’re not his type.
Anyway, I’m less concerned with this guys racist tattoos and more concerned with how ugly how ugly he is… being racist will have you looking like that.

If you are older and educated, you know the confederate flag is a sign of racism to a lot of people. However, some people only view the flag as to be a redneck good old boy symbol and do not understand how it could be hurtful to others. It is like the phrase “Mother F*cker,” This is a VERY RACIST thing to say. It was a term used to call black young men who were forced to have sex with their mom to produce more slaves. Saying this phrase is racist and hurtful too some. I do not think a racist guy would have sex on camera with a black or part black man if he were a racist. Look at the current Mississippi flag. I think before we start assuming someone is a racist because of their tattoo, we should work for Mississippi to update their flag.

Big eye roll here!
Brian
Nobody but you thinks “mother f*cker” is a racist phrase. I second that big eye roll.
ShiningSex
He’s racist. end of story. Sit down.

@funpitt412, why do you keep you pulling nonsense out of your @ss? Also, quite a few racists and white supremacists have crossed the color line in their private lives. Thomas Jefferson claimed black people were inferior yet could not stop raping his 14-year-old partially Black enslaved servant. Countless white supremacist slave masters fathered children by Black women and girls they raped. Strom Thurmond inveighed against Black people and for racial segregation, yet raped his family’s teenage Black maid and fathered a child by her. And on and on. I mean, seriously.

The desperation of racists to try to excuse racist symbols is amazing. Nice try.
sfhairy
And we care because? These are sex workers. No. One. Cares.
Gay Veteran
Says someone who probably watches porn on a regular basis. Being a sex worker doesn’t make a person less than… being a racist does.
sfhairy
I watch tons of porn, but don’t really give a rats a$$ on what the performer’s tats mean. I’m only concerned with the fact that he’s able to take a double fist.
rustyiam
Had it been a white guy it would be in caps in the headline!
Cam
Awww, the account that is the newest screename of BJMcFrisky and poundme2 is upset because people don’t like racist symbols. And it even threw in a bit of white victimhood.
Need a tissue precious?
The guy has a racist symbol on his arm. An article ran about it. Nice try.
Chrisk
Who cares. He’s got an American flag opposite. It’s part of history and not everything is racist. PC correctness run amok.
Brian
Is it the Betsy Ross flag? Because that would make him double racist, basically a Nazi.
Caramelo
Oh please. Everyone knows the confederate traitor flag is racist, that’s why it was designed
ShiningSex
it’s a history of racism you ignorant queen. you’re probably supportive of such stupidity. sit down.
Cam
So if he had the flag of Imperial Nazi Germany on his arm it would be ok if on the other he had an American Flag?
Because the Confederate flag represents a traitorous group who declared themselves enemies of America and fought a war with us so they could keep subjugating and abusing human beings as property.
Aires the Ram
@ Brian: If you think the Betsy Ross flag is a symbol of racism, you are ignorant and have no education in regards to history.
Brian
Not too good with sarcasm, are you?
funpitt412
Betsy Ross flag now decried by 2020 Dems, pundits was flown during Obama’s 2nd inauguration. So if no one had a problem with it then, why is it racist now? Oh because it works in your agenda.
ShiningSex
stop spreading bs. you’re probably racist yourself. sit down queen.
Cam
Right wing account here to try to deflect from the fact that the Confederate Flag is a racist symbol.
Aires the Ram
@funpitt412: They have a very short memory. Especially if it serves their agenda of trying to make everyone think that all white people are racists, bigots and the like. They’re the (a-hem) “party of inclusion” remember………..
ShiningSex
that dude is gross!

The Confederate Flag is a hate symbol. This porn actor is clearly Asian American or part Asian American/Hapa, perhaps Vietnamese. I assume, based on his other tattoos, that he got this when in the military or that had some influence on him. Maybe he was or is ignorant of its meaning. Sadly lots of people are. The studio probably thought that pairing him with a Black/mixed actor would neutralize the tattoo. Also, maybe he’s holding two opposing things in his head, that he’s attracted to and can have sex with Black/mixed guys, and also walk around with a racist tattoo.
That said, the studio should know that posting this video clip shortly after the horrific El Paso, Dayton and Gilroy Garlic Festival terrorist shootings is offensive and insensitive.
Rob Moore
I doubt he is part Asian. I’ve met quite a few white people who look like him without any Asian ancestry. He could have a Native American ancestor, but that’s as close as he gets to Asian.
david_warner
WOW … there’s an extra helping of just plain dumb and a heaping side of ignorance on this site today!!
PinkoOfTheGange
Okay this crosses the line to being coke woke.
Was any attempt make by this site to contact Brian or the models? Did the other model give a rat patootie about the tat. That is rally the only person that counts.
Cam
The article states that their inquiries were not answered.
PinkoOfTheGange
@Cam No it says another site tried last week. Nothing about this one doing any thing but fueling the faux outrage engine.
ladron
If you want to vet a sex worker for any possible biases, you go ahead – good luck with that. Racists abound in all aspects of life (porn too).
You as viewer or porn performing can make your own choices. Frankly if you’re bothered by a porn actor’s politics, stop watching porn.
Brian
Yeah, this is what I don’t get. We know plenty of them are drug addicts or gay for pay married guys or prostitutes or horrible to their co workers or any number of unsavory things. Some sins we’re supposed to hold against them, and others make us evil bigots if we hold them against them.
It’s porn. It’s sleazy. It exists for us to jerk off to. I’m not gonna be holier than thou about something that’s designed to make me shoot a load onto myself. I either like what I see or I don’t, I don’t really care beyond that.
Aires the Ram
@ laden: Why, that would make far too much sense to tell these idiots that if they don’t like something, don’t look at it. But you know they do jerk off to things like this. The idea of ‘personal responsibility’ was lost on them somewhere in their lives. To the larger issue, the leftists…er…Dems issue ‘this’ week is demonizing white people, and the underlying issue is that they just cannot get past the fact that in 2016 the candidate that they supported (I didn’t say ‘voted for’, for a reason, many didn’t vote at all), did not win the Presidential election. They’re whining and crying like babies and most of the time they don’t even know what they’re whining and crying about. It’s just so “fashionable” you know, to bash President Trump, and by extension all white people, and by extension those who don’t march in lock-step with their leftist/Stalinist agenda.
Brian
So the N word has a history of racism (obviously). Yet we accept that it means very different things to different people. Why can’t the Confederate flag also mean different things to different people? Because some people genuinely do view it as a sign of southern pride, nothing to do with it’s history.
And before anyone says it’s because black people reclaimed the word that was used against them for so long, what about the black people who still view it as only a slur and would never use it themselves? They’re expected to just suck it up and accept it and surely can’t be thrilled about having to hear it as often as they do.
Cam
Except, why bother? The purpose of your post seems to be to rehab a symbol of an enemy nation of America that fought to own slaves. I don’t care if some racist wants to lie and claim the flag reminds him of his great aunt Gertie and her wonderful lemon bars.
RandomGuy
He’s a porn performer so we know already that he makes poor life choices.
