I’m tired of reading this shit in Era. If you eat there, you’re a piece of trash, no exceptions.
If they aren't going to ban them outright, people who eat at chik fil a should get a tag so the actual good people here can just put the trash people on auto ignore.

I think the site as a whole needs an actual, experienced community director as site staff. While moderators here are human and volunteers, the history of moderation and enforcement of the site's rules has been spotty at best and looked like favoritism at it's worst, and certain topics, such as this one, show deeprooted problems that really need to be solved over the long term and prevented in the future. An actual overarching plan and a proper set of support tools for the staff implemented by a community director would go a long way to destressing the moderation team, providing clear and consistent forum policy and preventing these grey areas (which really aren't grey at all).
I volunteered my time in the past (proper community building, marketing, PR, all areas of expertise this site is currently lacking) and got promptly ignored (which is 100% okay!) but I still believe to this day that this place needs experienced guidance on issues such as this, and "winging it" is not, and has not, been working. I really hope a thread like this leads to an open discussion about what needs to change and an actual proper plan on how to get there.
It is now 2019, almost 2020. Forums and communities as a whole can not be run in the modern area in a style of how they were run 5-10 years ago. Times have changed a lot, and they are going to keep changing. The friction does not have to be there, and it is a fixable problem in the long term. I hope the site realizes that and gets the proper person in place to work towards that betterment of everything here because this place still has so much untapped potential for good.

I'm throwing this suggestion out here in addition to other suggestions and this is more of my governmental self on this, how about we establish a moderation watchdog similar to the Office of Inspector General (http://'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Inspector_General_(United_States)') or the Office of Special Counsel (http://'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Office_of_Special_Counsel') where the admin and staff, in unanimous agreement, or regular users who wishes to nominate a user, nominates an independent user as an inspector general to which to be advise and consent to every user on the forum or at least have users sign up for it. Having a simple majority or 60% say aye to confirm the user to a one year term which can be renewed up to a limit of 3 years. This user would be charged to lead with examining the actions of the moderators as a general auditor of their operations to ensure they are operating in compliance with generally established policies of the website, to audit the effectiveness of security procedures, or to discover the possibility of misconduct for the staff and admins. If there is misconduct conducted by a admin or moderator reported by a user, the IG will investigate this report and would determine if that moderator did operate in misconduct. If that moderator is found to operate in misconduct, the IG will report to the admin to determine disciplinary actions such as a ban or having their moderation powers revoked.
Another suggestion would be to establish an office similar to the Department of Justice's Office of Special Counsel (http://'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_Justice_Office_of_Special_Counsel') where only regular users can nominate an independent user as an independent counsel to advise and consent to the same terms and rules except the powers of this counsel to ban and revoking a moderator without having to go to the admin.
Again this is simply a suggestion, if anyone needs to point out any flaws or loopholes, I'm right here.

I can't believe he had the nerve to say this when he locked the last thread.
Personally, the idea that someone who was not supposed to have access to our private conversations had access makes me uncomfortable, and that has nothing to do with fear of being "outed" as a secret bigot.
Narrator: It had everything to do with the fear of being outed as a secret acephobe.

:rejoice

It much be so hard to go about your daily lives without the ability to be ace/transphobic in private. Poor people
lol at acephobia being the thing that finally makes them realize that ResetERA.com is a hate site where minorities leave in droves every second

We just got the cybered u guys.

Everyone involved in protecting Royalan's acephobia needs to step down.

Cindi, if you’re reading this, now is the time to load up a Reset account (if you have one), jump in that thread, and demand that Cerium step down and hand the forum over to Ket. If someone does it they’ll start parroting something similar.
-

Its the only way.

Its important to continue to point out that this community was founded in to be more open on things like the processes. You have an entire community who is now in fear and you choose to say shut up and get back to trans issues. If you arent going to listen to an entire community that what is the point of this site?
:ohyou
-
:lol at all the drama at reset.
start a new community based on open moderation and being welcoming to minorities and the first time you get tested do neither

at least we got some fucking discords out of it
that post legit gave me a sensible chuckle

What are these idiots "in fear" of? Does ERA have a hitman from the dark web on speed dial, ready to take out the trans community over there? Jesus Christ the hyperbole.
I'm stunned they perma'd Ket. Now do the same to the ones bitching and the site becomes 0.00000000001% more tolerable.
-
And it actually is International Transgender Day of Remembrance now.
Yeah... On a day about remembering the fallen victims of transphobic we are having to fight for transparency due to a pillar of our community being shadily banned for speaking up in a thread about the administration's handling of transphobic for the last several months.

I’ve been negative about Era for a long time now, but god is this a new fucking low
This is a good time to mention that Xaszatm, an ace person, got his thread on trans issues locked by acephobe Royalan.
I hoped to start posting more, but frankly I don't really feel like it's worth it now, in both safety and personal interest.

Unless there's a quick reversal of course and accountability to be had, I think I'm done with this forum, at this point. The administration has demonstrated no willingness beyond empty lip service to improve... any... aspect. These problems have been top-down since the forum's launch.
Royalan, perhaps you should take notes: as gay people we have to stand in solidarity with all members of the umbrella, or else it doesn't function. Dismissing or measuring against others' oppression makes it clear you're in the repugnant "fuck you, got mine" camp of gay man-children clutching at their tenuous privilege.
I'll be shocked if this thread isn't locked by tomorrow with no improvement for anything. They can't fix this for the same reason the problem was caused in the first place. They can't see beyond themselves. Any perceived slight against them gets far more precedence than anything else.
I don't think there's active transphobia or acephobia, but it's still bigotry if you're called out for an hurtful action on good faith and your response is the biggest "fuck you" you can exercise. Putting your own ego above any concern of others is were a lot of bigotry comes from, and I believe that's what's happening here.
Who is Royalan? Can't keep up with this shit anymore.
-
Nobody even knew Royalan's real name, so they couldn't confirm he was the acephobic one.
-
If they were smart they should have outed royalan and just let him register under an alias and promote him as a new mod when no one is looking :brain :doge

To make matters more wild, the content and moderator Ketkat was referencing was not Royalan.

Nepenthe should put an asexual flag behind her avatar, it's the least she could do.

Makes all those statements staff promised the new users when we migrated 2 years ago even more insulting.
:rofl

With staff like this, it's no wonder the forum cultivated such a toxic community.
-
This is the last thing I am going to post about this, if I get banned oh well though I would prefer not to, from now on I will stick to posting about games and comics if that.
This was the one place I felt safe to talk about who I am. I am still in the closet IRL. Sometimes I feel as if that makes people dismiss/not take me seriously/think I am a liar.
I do not feel safe. I am not in a position (I am disabled and cannot and will not ever be able to legally drive) to just burn all bridges and move somewhere this is accepted though most nights being able to is the story I tell myself and fantasize while falling asleep.
Though I knew my identity would never fly with most of my extended family I learned a very harsh lesson at 17. My stepfather snuck into my room without me realizing and found me in my previously safe space wearing a dress and makeup. He beat me unconscious. I woke up to him having called the cops and while it’s not legal as I was a minor in my mothers care they escorted me off the property while telling my stepfather “it’s their pleasure to help him get rid of this sick f**, if I had my way we could just shoot them”.
That fucked me up for years, and while my mother is no longer with him (and while I have never told her things she has said and how she acts about trans causes makes me believe she knows and will do anything to both have me forgive her, and more importantly forgive herself) it’s still a bone of contention between us and I know my brother who is like my twin even though we are seperate by a couple years still has resentments towards her about it.
I will NEVER let any of my extended family know.
The saddest part is I have accepted who I was at about age 5 or 6 and my issue has never been self acceptance but safety. Flash Forward to now and I was (mostly through hope and support provided by the members of ERA’s trans community) ready. Was going to tell my immediate, a friend or two, and then disappear to everyone else while beginning transition. And then trump not only got elected and has been pushing more and more anti trans regulation including trying to make it legal for the medical profession and government to discriminate specifically against trans people and keep us from being a protected class.
I am disabled. I have a blood mutation that is aggressive and has already almost killed me a dozen times and probably it or related complications will still probably be the death of me, but with care I should still make to where though that kills me a dozen things could have. I also due to it mixed with my experience and education, and prior work history combined with what I am prepared and able to do for work I am unemployable and on government disability with a fixed income, and reliant on government provides healthcare to make sure it doesn’t kill me, I average multiple hospital visits a year and multiweek stays 2 or 3 times every two or three years all because of how at risk my health is.
So since I rely on the good faith of the same people who are trying to make it so both government and medical professions can discriminate against and refuse me service, being the same people who have to approve the benefits that literally keep me alive and able to eat and have a roof over my head, is it all that surprising I scurried right back I to the closet? Being in my 40’s ain’t have lost hope for me, but have doubled down in my efforts to support the cause, in real life with volunteering and what little money I can, things with real effect beyond talking on the internet because I hope I can help so we reach a point where no little girl or boy has to accept being a boy or girl even though they are not for their own safety or other reasons. I want a world where mine is the last generation that has to face that sort of thing and it becomes normal for trans kids to identify to the world and for the world to eagerly and normally help those children facilitate fixing things so they can live normally as who they are.
Unfortunately we are not there and IRL I feel like I am in more danger than ever. Era was my refuge,the one place I felt free, I thought I could be honest, and the help of others could not only help my Dream for others but also help me see a light at the end of my own tunnel.
That dream is dead and I feel inmore danger than ever and now I have no outlet, I mean in this thread alone you have one person with a history being offensive and when that’s pointed out doubling down while still being offensive and a known shitposter with a history of shitposting not really being offensive but definitely sticking there nose in to make drive by observations unneeded with not even a warning or a “hey back off” while we all get the “despiser your animosity we have been nice but that ends now threats” in a trans awareness week thread discussing the horrible treatment the trans community here faces and from the looks of it lots of that community isn’t going to be here any longer ( and I am sure that makes more than a small minority happy, maybe we will stop being offended and lighten up, just because we are the most discriminated against and in the most physical danger, especially are sisters that are black and brown we should still be nice and defer to the majority about what should be an issue or considered offensive right? We sure are an uplift bunch...) so I don’t feel safe at all here anymore and if I am not banned and do post here it will after this post never be about this issue or in one of these threads again. Not only do I have to worry about all the enemy eyes on this site and if they were to ever decide to focus on me, but to worry about that on a board that has shown time and time again that except for a few (and there are posters, and even with this a couple mods and staff-not a monolith-that I truly believe have our back) most at best tolerate us/are “allies” as long as it doesn’t require any actual backbone all the way to people (not going to mention names but if I did their are receipts, a certain “physician” handled poster comes to mind) who straight up come into trans threads to concern troll and spread TERF talking points without moderation, if I have to read one more time the “but what about actual born real woman’s concerns, their opinion should matter most” in a trans athlete thread my fist would go through a monitor. But hey not going to participate in any of that anymore if I am here, back in the closet here too seems the safest bet ( I also quite remember before before settling on this avatar, which I picked as closest to my physicality/looks if I were to transition, and the fact my chosen name is jessi, I had a Walton Goggins avatar from VP and in a trans thread someone (not trans) attacked me and said I was either faking or just looking to be offended because no way I could be trans or care about the issue because I had that avatar and I should hate Walton for his role in SOA or something, and of course that was okay for that poster to do, no side eye from anyone but me) and yes I am over sharing but to begin it’s the last time I share at all, second I want to get across why safety matters to me and how and why I feel the equivalent of being backstabbed and losing the only friend I had for the one issue in my life that matters most.
But some people can now feel safe sharing their mundane life details and totally not anything offensive in the private discord for a board that was supposedly founded on the notion of transparency and not repeating the mistakes of NeoGaf.
I am glad someone feels safe cause I don’t, but I guess that makes it all gravy, the people that matter feel safe while we all feel we have to leave or muzzle ourselves or possibly as in my case right now get banned.
I guess it all evens out😞

I am, and have been, fucking torn on what to do
There isn't going to be any major accountability for this (it certainly ain't gonna be Quick even on the minute chance there was), and I know and have spent months now consoling fellow members of the community who have similarly felt, and continue to feel, silenced and not seen or cared about here. None of this was a big surprise to any of us
The thing is: not all of them have a backup plan. This place was supposed to be the backup plan
If you don't frequent one of the community threads to piggyback off the Discords they have, you basically have nothing left now. I don't know that there Is a next step now, let alone What it looks like, for some of those who just now feel completely abandoned. And I don't want to leave friends* behind without a parachute or extra place to crash, and to feel loved. Because we are loved, and we fucking deserve to feel like we are loved
*and if this incident proves nothing else, it proves that's what the fuck we are, by the way. If you aren't straight, if you are in this LGBTQ+ community, you are a friend. You have to be. Because we are all we got. We always have been, and always will be, the only ones we can trust, because we sure haven't been given reason to trust anyone else

Yeah fuck this. It's pretty clear that the people who run this site don't give a shit about Trans people.
Shame on the decision, and this isn't the transparency that I expected after the bullshit of the old site and working for over 24 hours during the transition here to get out as many general migrations server invites as possible whilst disseminating corrupt ban information and assisting with the transfer of multiple communities via created discords.
-
Royalan deleted the post where he said he wasn't involved :lol
-
So the one piece of vaguely positive news is that dissatisfaction with the Era community and leadership has been brewing across multiple minority communities.
The frustrations that the Trans communities express about the blatant bigotry and the mod team’s happiness to look the other way are frustrations shared by others too.
I don’t think there’s enough of us yet for things to reach a boiling point, but if leadership continues to act the way they do, one day we might reach that critical mass

I'm really sorry this happened to you Jessi and I feel for you. I don't really feel safe here either after all this. I hope you do continue posting on era but I don't even think I will be posting as much either after watching all these trans threads go up in flames due to poor moderation or just really awful people. I don't feel safe anymore as much as I want to feel safe. I don't even know what to do anymore and I've been processing this thread the entire time and the recent staff response and I just don't feel mentally sound anymore I can't even handle the issues going on in my community right now after some serious allegations took place. I feel fucking lost and depressed more so than ever. My boyfriends telling me to stop reading the thread and to just take a step back. I think he's right but like, after all, that's happened I just can't think clearly anymore. I probably should go to bed and get some rest.

Hey, comrades, if you want to show solidarity to our trans brothers and sisters, just swing on by the Trans Awareness week thread in the pinned section of the EtCetera forum! It's easy to miss, but allies would be very, very, very appreciated right now, for reasons that will become very obvious to you the second you click in on the latest couple pages.
Well, Ketkat's insinuation was that someone had posted acephobic shit. Then a mod comes in there, Royalan, specifically, trying to defend the decision in part by talking a whole bunch of shit about how bad the job is. Another mod comes in saying they have no acephobic members on staff. Leaving aside the question of why they didn't just ban Ketkat for lying if that were the case, After a little bit of searching, wouldn't you fucking know it, a NeoGAF thread from 2017:
Now we get confirmation via Ketkat's girlfriend that Royalan isn't even the mod they were talking about. The problem is, of course, a pinned thread gets minimal exposure. Now I'm here, talking to you all.
I wonder if someone's on PoliERA doing something similar. I hope so.
REVOLUTION

Mods can't reverse decision on this either. Nobody posting there (who isn't fucking nuts at least) would ever take them seriously again.
-
Mods just waiting those members to cry themselves to sleep and then clean up.

I'm really sorry this happened to you Jessi and I feel for you. I don't really feel safe here either after all this. I hope you do continue posting on era but I don't even think I will be posting as much either after watching all these trans threads go up in flames due to poor moderation or just really awful people. I don't feel safe anymore as much as I want to feel safe. I don't even know what to do anymore and I've been processing this thread the entire time and the recent staff response and I just don't feel mentally sound anymore I can't even handle the issues going on in my community right now after some serious allegations took place. I feel fucking lost and depressed more so than ever. My boyfriends telling me to stop reading the thread and to just take a step back. I think he's right but like, after all, that's happened I just can't think clearly anymore. I probably should go to bed and get some rest.
you should probably stop posting on the internet.
That makes me feel stable.
-
Thank you for sharing your story.
You are so brave and I am so sorry for the diabolical treatment you received from such bigots. :(
I hope you can sleep well tonight and please feel free to reach out if you need people to vent to safely.

I feel like I just saw all the attempted good will built up by the staff in this thread shattered in two bans. Good job.
I don't think I feel comfortable posting on this forum anymore.
11/15/2019:
While I no longer feel comfortable posting on this forum after, well... Best not to say now. I guess I never properly came out as trans here.
I'm a (slightly Enby)girl! Trans rights are human rights.
I have infinite respect to anyone whose transitioned come out irl. I hope I can find the courage to do that some day.
Today:
Staff literally keeps making this worse and worse. I don't know how they expect anyone in the trans community to trust them again after this.
I keep checking back hoping they make things right and... Ugh this place is becoming too frustrating to deal with.
I'll be honest if she doesn't come back either from being perma banned or of her own will then I'm done with this place. The mods have been great but the admins have proven time and again to be unfit to handle this community.
I keep giving this place more chances but the admins always kill the goodwill the mods build up and I just can't stand the all this self-serving "stay in line" bullshit.
This doesn't mean much to most, I'm new to being trans and I've not been a very active member of this community. I wanted to try and change that because I love a lot of people here, but I haven't felt safe here for a while.
Okay seriously fuck the staff, fuck this website I'm done.

Reading posts from trans members expressing they don’t feel safe is really disheartening. They should feel safe. And the priority should’ve been to discuss it with the community on ways to make things better/safer for them.
Instead they’re here stressed out, thinking of where to go because they’ve not been offered any sort of relief after a pillar of the community was removed forcefully.
The way I see it, the posts full of fear, anger and confusion are an olive branch. They’re calling on the moderation team to do better.
There’s a history here of broken trust, and it is not regained by platitudes. It’s actions. People are tired of having to contend with micro-aggressions on this website. Please, listen to them! A lot of them are ostracized in their homes and communities and THIS SITE could be the only place that becomes a lifeline. Don’t take this from us.

Unban KetKat.
Demod and permaban Royalan, the other acephobic mod, Morrigan, and all other staff involved.

It’s been over-moderated from the jump. And it’s never felt like a place where actual discussion could happen. The moderators definitely have pushed this board toward their specific views just as it was at Neogaf.

Honestly this is extra spicy and wild because it was ROYALAN who made Cerium bend the knee and demanded that Resetera take a completely unwavering stance in support of progressive causes etc rather than pretending to be a neutral place. And then the next day Cerium made that big write up about how Resetera was unapologetically in pro LGBT, anti-racist, and so on.

Hey everyone,
I wanted to chime and offer my two cents on the ongoing situation. For those of you who don’t know me, I’m a former administrator for this website, and a transgender person myself. I also own and co-run the TransEra community discord. With that context out of the way, let’s dig into things.
First of all, I think the mod post in this thread misunderstands what the actual issue is from the community’s perspective. The community’s issue is not with leaks. The community’s issue is not with investigations. The community’s issue is with how the situation was handled.
It is one thing to ban a member for leaking something that was private. I think most people can understand that logic, even if they don’t necessarily agree with the decision. Where you lost people is when you decide to start talking about investigating the issue seriously, as if there was ever going to be any kind of chat log or read receipt in Discord that provided a smoking gun. The entire ‘investigation’ could never be more than he said, she said, for that’s all that Discord provides you.
I am very frustrated to see that the staff has a willingness to take a swing at a banned member who can no longer speak for herself here in a thread about transgender awareness, no less. The sheer lack of awareness is mind boggling. To take a shot by saying, ‘Ketkat understood the importance of privacy in safe spaces, as she has championed this herself,’ isn’t just low, it is quite frankly pathetic. Why would ever think it is ok to take a snide shot at someone like this in an official capacity? I cannot believe that there is an administrator on staff who approved this. It makes staff look like the pettiest people on the planet, taking a shot at a former trans member of the community loved by the community in a thread about the trans community.
The community doesn’t care about how the ResetEra staff feels right now. It isn’t about the ResetEra staff feeling comfortable, it is about the ResetEra community feeling comfortable. Ultimately, the staff serves the community, not the other way around. When I was on staff, I was always willing to make myself uncomfortable if it meant making the community more comfortable, even if it meant having hard conversations that lasted long hours. That’s part of being a volunteer, and that is part of serving. It isn’t about you, the staff, it is about us, the community. That is something that has absolutely been lost as time has gone on.
There’s a lot more I could say on my feelings, but my feelings are ultimately moot at this point, and so are words. What really matters at this point is actions. ResetEra staff, whether you agree with them or not (and I hope you do), the community feels extremely wronged right now. People are hurting, and they’re hurting because you’ve hurt them. Now is the time to show that y’all really at the good people I know and worked alongside for years. Do the right thing, and show it with your words, not with your actions.
I would suggest the following:
The moderator who made the post that has been linked around this thread needs to resign. In order for the community to move on and to heal, sometimes it is necessary for oneself to step aside. In this case, it is time for you to step aside and allow the healing process to begin.
An apology should be posted for this whole situation. In this apology, you should clearly outline the steps that you take when evaluating transphobic content or other content that is anti-LGBT. There are plenty of us in the community that are former staff and could as easily articulate these rules, but you need to step forward and tell the community what they are. And then, you have to let the community hold you accountable to them. That’s how you will open the door for the community to restore trust in you, by enforcing this policy (that you already have) not with your words, but with your actions.
There needs to be a greater diversification in the administration table. This is something that has been great in the past, but after most of the original administration left, is severely lacking now. Please correct this decision with serious administration changes that will result in better conversations in the administration room with voices who are more concerned about doing right by the community than doing right by the moderation rulebook.
And, this really should be a given, but at this point, Ketkat should be unbanned. Right or wrong, it doesn’t really matter how you feel about it. It will be a good starting sign to restorting the trust between the community and staff. If Ketkat breaks the rules again, that’s on her, but right now, it doesn’t really matter. What matters is keeping the community together and restoring the trust that has been broken.
This is by no means the only things that have to happen or the only things that can happen, but I would call this a good start. It is hard. It is going to not be particularly fun for anyone involved. But, at the end of the day, it is worth it because this community and ResetEra are worth it. I urge to do this at all haste.
If you have any questions for me, my inboxes are always open. If others have suggestions or amendums to this list they'd like to see, please feel free to mention them, tihs was simply the first few big points that came to my mind.
Thanks,
Nicole

She's so mad that she was forced out :neogaf
Why is SweetNicole pretending she was not kicked out for similar reasons?

oh more gaf micro community drama. why get made into a giant dad by moderators? make your own board and run it like you want to, you absolute smooth brains.
Because they won't get the attention they keep crying for on a tiny little unknown forum. :'(

No, this is a dumb take.
Why? The guy is a Kamala Harris supporter and “pro Israel”.

I honestly do not even know where to even start when talking about how the mod staff is acting right now. They are supposed to be better then pulling this shadowy ass bullshit and trying to cover stuff up, I am getting some real flash backs here back to what happened in the Etika thread. This is just going too far and all of the Trans people on this site should feel 100% SAFE to talk freely and post here. And I will say it again because it deserves to be said.
Trans Posters Should Feel Safe To Post On ERA!
We need to do better with how things are handled on this site with it's staff.
✊🏻 Trans Power ✊🏻 Ace Power ✊🏻 Against all powers ✊🏻
If, for some reason, I'm banned during all this ruckus, I'd like everyone to know it wasn't requested.
Same.
if i suddenly go silent it was the brother moderator/administrator who is trying to keep their sex scand
-
Honestly this is extra spicy and wild because it was ROYALAN who made Cerium bend the knee and demanded that Resetera take a completely unwavering stance in support of progressive causes etc rather than pretending to be a neutral place. And then the next day Cerium made that big write up about how Resetera was unapologetically in pro LGBT, anti-racist, and so on.
Royalan is such a fucking idiot, he never realized he was not as progressive he thought he was.
Ironic, he could save others but he couldn’t save himself.

Remember when Evilore locked threads and banned people instead of sharing any information or having civil discourse? Remember when it was because there were behind-the-scenes issues happening and nobody was being held accountable for throwing their weight around to stifle complaints and prevent accountability? Remember how we, as a community, were going to move to a more transparent and open discussion platform to avoid that crap?
Sick one.
Mods, please just inform us on what you're going to do instead of remaining silent and insta-locking any discussion on the shit going on in the trans awareness thread:

Seconded. I've been writing and rewriting posts for the last 10 minutes. The trans and ace communities should feel safe to post here, but we've failed them in that regard.

I'm talking about on cultural issues, bruh. He's gay, he's black, he's always been the loudest voice in the room when it comes to this stuff. He's a perfect representative of what Resetera wants and was literally the most important person when it came to changing Resetera into what it is so if he doesn't pass the purity test then fucking nobody does.

She fucked Talking Pillows, who brought down SteamERA, and she was given new account names + her Duration Pendings were erased.

MODS ARE ASLEEP POST
SMOOTH YODA BORING REPOSTS THAT SAY NOTHING

A few things I would remind people as the evening hours begin in earnest:
To the community: Even on our best days when I was on staff, it took staff time to respond to issues. An issue of this magnitude, it will take time for them to respond. There is still time for them to respond correctly, now. Please have a bit of patience and wait for their response rather than demanding they rush things. You can still talk about this problem and how we got here, but rushing is not prudent. We want them to get this right. It is also late hours of the night for most of us, and many people, community and staff included would be greatly served by sleeping on this.
To the staff: Although things are bad right now, the community does want to leave. People are looking for you to give them a reason to stay. They're looking for you to give them a reason to hope. They're looking for you to show them with their actions that things are going to be okay in the long run, even if they're not okay right now. Please, please, do not waste this opportunity.
And, I know posting your trans policies publicly is scary. Yes, it is possible it could be abused by bad faith actors. But I worry more about the community than I do some bad faith actors right now. The damage has already been done, and it will require extreme solutions to restore things to normal. The choice seems to be between rebuilding faith with the community or dealing with some bad faith actors. For me, it is clear which is the right decision is out of those options, and I earnestly hope it is clear for you too.

Former mod here, and certainly no stranger to saying stupid shit, as pretty much all of y'all are well aware.
I've written about three dozen versions of this post and deleted them all because it's hard to formulate the right words. Rather than posting a huge essay, I'm just going to say that while I DO understand the challenges of moderating a site as large, diverse, and ever-changing as Era, I ALSO know that it's possible to make the wrong call sometimes.
Nicole has the right of it, from my point of view. I may not be a frequent presence in most TransEra threads, but I stand with you. It's so, so damn common to see people trivialize the struggles of the asexual community nowadays, and Era needs to be a place where ace members of the community can feel safe and not under the same kind of threat of erasure.
Planet Smasher is also a petty scumbag.

Quoting this so others can easily catch up.
I had no idea trans members were feeling this way, or that they experienced a sense of pervasive hostility towards them anywhere on the forum. I come here because I expect Era to be a place where marginalized people can feel safe and protected by a progressive mod team.
The same goes 100% for asexual members.
I can't offer an opinion on the banning, or anything going on behind the scenes. I just want to know that mods are taking the concerns of all marginalized members to heart, and that these issues are going to be addressed.
I'm so sorry that anyone is feeling alienated by this community, especially asexual and transgender members. You're incredibly valuable members of this forum, and not just because of the unique perspectives you bring to our discourse. Love and support to all of you.

Issues like this have always been handled terribly here. And I feel like it’s only gotten worse despite years of saying they will do better.
There’s a reason why certain communities don’t feel welcome here anymore and their respective OTs only get a fraction of the traffic they used to get at the old place. Everyone’s moved to Discord.

Hobbes enters the scene with..353 words 2,088 characters
Hello,
Someone messaged me to bring this to my attention. As I understand the situation, a leading community figure in the trans era community was banned for mentioning that chats exist regarding a moderator who expressed discrimination of Asexuals in a private staff-run Discord server/channel.
Most importantly, the allegation alleges that this discrimination was not challenged and even agreed with by other(s). Below are a list of questions I request Administration to answer as best as possible to allow a cleaner discussion regarding the issue.
Are the allegations made by the banned user true?
If the allegations are true, what is being done to correct / educate this moderator's behavior and view?
What specific site rules exist that allow such a ban to occur, given that the incident (the breach of privacy on a Staff discord) occurred off-site, and was simply mentioned in passing in a post?
Why was the ban permanent rather than shorter?
Does this breach of privacy warrant such a strong punishment?
How was the investigation conducted?
What information was provided that proved misconduct and malicious intent on part of the banned user?
I believe moderation has quite a lot of blanks to fill regarding this incident. After all, I'm an incident manager, this is my job, and I feel like the reasoning provided is not good enough. If I were to write an Incident Report based on the information available to me from both staff and non-staff, it would be sent back to me, with the reason that the Root Cause Analysis is not good enough and does not warrant the punishment given.
With the way that it is currently framed, you have someone who is essentially a whistleblower that became banned BECAUSE they brought forth issues with moderation and discrimination against Asexuals. I want to believe that Era is not this forum of dog shit. I want to believe that all of these Twitter messages I get are wrong, and this place is a safe space for progressive thinking and inclusiveness. Currently, I'm not so sure.
Moderation needs to correct the current view point with something substantial.
And manages to say absolutely nothing. :lol :lol :lol

I would love to write an official incident report on this. Would make this entire situation a lot cleaner if what actually happened was documented and written up. Then people can read it and see what actually is happening.
Of course, I know I have a history on Era with some pretty bad EGS takes and the occasional fuck up of posting banned content, but I would people know that they can trust me to back them up when human rights are being fucking questioned.
That shit don't fly with me.

Let's be real here:
KetKat was one of the most insufferable posters on the entire site. She seriously was, she had no friends and she was extremely toxic to everyone, LGBT folk included.
What spurred this? ResetERA was founded before EviLore's implosion by PoliGAF and Cerium with help of Nibel and folk, is something similar happening?
I absolutely refuse to believe people care about KetKat
What’s this story? I don’t think I ever heard about it being founded/conceived of before the implosion.
-
Hell, the site that I've mentioned above that melted down charged less than half the cost of Era Clear for it's ad-clearing subscription. There's really no reason for Era Clear to be as incredibly expensive as it is for what's being offered unless someone's padding their pockets with it.
oh, i'm sure you don't have to worry about that much

I just want this to be resolved the right way so I can go back to thinking ERA is a safe place for queer folks because I don't want this to be just A Place Where I Talk About Video Games.

Why Cerium can just throw everyone under the bus? Most sane people still at Era knows that the woke community there is toxic as hell and if he just opened the flood gates at least he could savage certain part of the user base. The forum was never going to become like GAF at the peak of its popularity.

yeah. whoever banned you deserves to be perma'd. also, supposedly bans are talked about, so anyone who agreed with your ban needs to be perma'd too
AND KILL THEM

What’s this story? I don’t think I ever heard about it being founded/conceived of before the implosion.
ResetERA was setup already as a site before EviLore's story broke, and people like Nibel/shinobi had already been reaching out to different OTs about the launch of a new site.
This was before any sort of moderator unrest or drama.
All of a sudden people find this obscure post on the comment section of Facebook, PoliGAF ends up as all mods/admins/owners of an llc owning the site and the "influencers" who had reached out to OTs prior also got mod positions.
Are you implying that Cerium somehow orchestrated Showergate? Maybe he knew the girl and told her to tell a story?
-
Well I believe it

I just saw a screengrab on that hate site, the one about farming, and an Era discord is currently being screengrabbed by literal Nazis. I would post the screenshot but let´s maybe not. This is official not a safe space anymore.

I will preface my post with this:
I do not know the mod that Robin alluded to. I was unaware of Royalan's post from 2017 until it was posted here. I have, however, been privy to all of the information about Ketkat that has been divulged up into this point and understand why she was banned. But I also know that my inability to divulge what I've read means that the information might as well not even exist from your point of view, and as such it doesn't matter.
It literally doesn't matter.
None of this matters in light I've how things have fallen apart between staff and the trans community.
All I want to say is: I'm sorry.
I'm sorry if I've ever posted something that has undermined you all and made you feel unappreciated and unwanted on the basis of your gender identity and expression. I'm sorry for the way the situation's devolution has made you feel ignored. I'm sorry that I cannot give you what you are hoping for in regards to Ketkat's membership with the limited power and context I'm working with. I'm sorry that my apology is all I can give you, because I know it is ultimately as worthless as the inciting incident at this point in time. But at the same time you all deserve something and I don't know what more I can give to you as an individual than the response I'm writing now.
I was a regular member once, and have forever been a minority. I know what it's like to just try to exist on the Internet without either some gaslighting bigot or even just some well-meaning know-it-all coming in with some nonsense that you, with your lived experience, can see clear as day, and feeling like you are alone in the midst of fighting back against the endless tide of ignorance, like staff doesn't have your back. That hurts, and I don't want anyone else to experience this ever again.
You all are also free to talk to me, with assurance that anything you say to me directly will not result in any staff action. I can't say I will get to every response especially since it's past 1 AM and I have to work in the morning. The least I can do on top of apologizing is give you some room to continue venting. Administration is also working on their own response, but I wanted to post something quickly and specifically from me without the curtain of mod bots and staff posts in the way.
-
I believe moderation has quite a lot of blanks to fill regarding this incident. After all, I'm an incident manager, this is my job, and I feel like the reasoning provided is not good enough.

Look at how proud he is trying to sound :lol

the "duration pending" to hide that it's a perma is cowardly.

Also am I allowed to just say that I'm disturbed that the mod who posted that message on the old place was the one who responded to my concerns on the Xaszatm locked thread?
I just have terrible feeling in the pit of my stomach right now I am so sorry.
what the fucking fuck!? not sure if want to look?

Trans rights are human rights
This means KetKat needs to be unbanned from ResetEra, a basic human right.

Why are people acephobic?
What's the threat? The reason for hatred?
Bigotry is hard to understand sometimes.
Atleast in the US and this is from my very little understanding but since the culture in the US is focused on sex, like how if you're a virgin you're seen a loser or it's like a rite of passage, Ace people deviate from that and are harassed based on the idea them not wanting sex means that there is something wrong with them.
That sounds incredibly ignorant and immature.
If what took place is true, that's incredibly disheartening
You be surprised how angry people get about this. As a guy, I’m lucky. At most I get called a name and I can go in with my life. Women, as usual, has it much worse.
I didn't actually realize that was a thing. Why would people be fearful of or hate a concept as inoffensive as asexuality?
I am familiar with asexuality but not too knowledgeable on it. Does anyone know a good resource for learning more about asexual individuals?
:doge :doge :doge :doge

ok, im fearful of being banned but why wouldnt era be a good place for a dialogue? like grab a few members(straight and lgbt) and mods and stream a discord session? lets try and not make era explode like gaf over something that can be easily addressable.

-
I said Cerium, not you BanBot racist fuck.

Mods have been super vocal previously that behaviour off-site does not constitute bans on Era, it's been an issue in the past when there are members that are being bigoted on other sites, or sharing personal details of other Era members, it getting brought back to mods, and mods refusing to take action. But now the opposite is applying in this case, while the policy as it had been stated previously is still in place for the mod in question.
If moderation policy has changed since those past events, I'm not sure. I haven't been active in the community much over the past 10ish months, and I readily admit they may have changed in that respect! But as it is with the experience I have it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, completely disregarding every other issue with all of this.
That’s what happens when forum personalities take over the modding. Even though the old place was shit, I feel like the modding there was handled way better. The transparency here is just a smokescreen.
Oof.
This is still baffling to me.
You have creeps here gleefully stalking other members and the mods won’t do shit about it a second long as the information is posted offsite.

I appreciate your attempt to empathize but you have said it yourself. It doesn't matter. I've outlined the things I want staff to answer regarding this issue. Until these questions are answered, this situation lives on as vague and mishandled. Your goal should be to provide action that speaks volumes about support for LGBT+.
I think it's safe to say that hobbes has murdered an alphabet poc and is looking for redemption by era knighting.

if admin reverses course, why on earth would you ever want to be a mod for such a site

.
I don't buy into conspiracies, but they setup an llc and had a plan for distribution of accrued funds along with setting up influencers to talk to OTs.
The influencers/OTs all met on a Discord, had the forum to themselves for a bit, and went onto become Mods/Admins/Community Leaders.
Also the owners of the llc were all wealthy neolibs who bragged about exceeding donation limits to HRC several times over through Super PACs
ResetERA was setup to distribute funds equally among a community clique
It does seem wild they had that shit good to go but I think they just got fucking lucky and capatilised on something that happened around the same time.
-
Would a compromise be that the information could be shared with a well respected member of the community in order for a certain amount of "independent verification"? I understand that the information shouldn't be made "public" (for want of a better word), since it may cause collateral damage to those who have nothing to do with this, but it would also allow for a level of trust to be built back up.
the problem is all the members are ResetERA.com members

To all the sane members of Resetera lurking this thread, if you have any thoughts about salvaging a functioning forum you should be pushing back against the insane Resetera trans community and their utter bullshit they're pulling.

It's very easy, cheap and quick to setup a new XenForo board. Anyone in a decent sized clique could make an attempt to schism the board again. I don't think Cerium was in any real special position when he started ResetEra. Apparently easy to monetize as well.

I know what they're talking about. There's a subset of asexual people who claim they only feel romantic attraction to people but not sexual attraction. If you're homoromantic and asexual then that makes you gay and ace.

they can't even come up with fake examples of asexuals being discriminated against like how transgender people are murdered every second of every day due to misgendering rapists

Less a timeline and an all-hands (ie not just the mod team) thread to talk about changes and reforms and try to build a consensus.
The question then becomes, how do you control a discussion like that? Do you put a moratorium on new members posting in the thread to prevent bad faith actors from creating accounts just to vent personal vendettas in public? How do you guide a discussion like that without it immediately descending into chaos?
maybe fearing this says something more important than whatever those bad faith actors might post?

tbf dismissing decades of well-documented oppression from copmala is a pretty good indicator of character. maybe even worse than that acephobic post
So are you basically weaponising your political disagreement to attack a mod? Not that what he posted was at all acceptable, but you sure seem eager to pounce based on that.
Real talk, we should have all been shitting on Royalan with this intensity when he was modding the Jussie Smollett thread.
The mod team needs to be made bigger and more diverse
So are you basically weaponising your political disagreement to attack a mod? Not that what he posted was at all acceptable, but you sure seem eager to pounce based on that.
the primary issue at hand is poor moderation as everyone has already elaborated on
but acephobia is still inherently political and a lot of people are treating the post with a lot of benefit of the doubt which is weird to me when this poster has a history of making posts that dismiss oppressed groups
I don’t really have energy to sign up for a new forum. Will probably focus on real life if that happens
Calm down, folks. I don't think another refugee crisis is on the cards. Just give the mods time to clean their act up. The difference between them and Evilore is they can be separated from Era.
I’m probably done with forums after this personally...

That's like saying gays are voluntarily homosexual. Being acegender is not a choice, they're incels.

Agreed. I'm not saying every mod needs thousands of posts, but there seems to be an increasing number of mods who barely interact with the community at all. Both before and after they were a mod.
This happened when it launched too, I was a user on gaf since 07 and I still don't know who the hell half the founders are.
Yes I do wonder how many people have been hit for saying something that rubbed a staff member the wrong way, it is hard to see why someone got banned
If mods don't agree with your views, you're definitely in trouble.
This happens often, that’s why a lot of people act like they are walking on eggshells. On top of that all the secrecy and heavy handed moderation has not worked this time, but this isn’t the first instance of this behaviour. There is no transparency, the language is very clearly “us vs them”, when the “staff” talk about the community. The foundations in the guidelines and when this forum started are not followed at all and it just feels like the “in” or “prominent” members get to have their little power trip. It’s a terrible way to manage and grow a community and it’s terrible to see what’s unfolded over the past few days.
they'd rather you handle everything in PMs so no one else can see and they can shut you up with platitudes.
Or ignore you completely.

Hey mods

I too would like to see actual evidence. In order to facilitate this, I would also agree that an independent member or group of members decided upon by both moderation staff and community both, would be best.
Afterwards, it might be wise to set up a type of internal affairs sort of thing.
The moderators seemed to circle the wagons and I know some of these mods wouldn't normally do so without a good reason, but we need answers that go beyond 'vagueness.'
I know the reason it's vague is that it's to protect minority members of the moderation team, which is why that independent group should at least consist of a number of minority members, as well. Under strict penalties, of course, should that information leave that.
So, I have three requests that will make me feel better:
-Either unban KetKat or provide access to an independent group that can confirm the moderator team's reasoning behind the ban. This group should be held to high esteem, with minority members, as well as strict penalties for breaking that trust.
-Actively remove from the moderation team people who have been verified within a certain time frame to hold ideas that may color their judgement on some issues to the detriment of your minority forum members -- LGBT here, but of course the same would be try of racial minority members, too.
-Provide a way to either recall or report moderator actions specifically, which would require verification from at least two other mods, or in conjunction with the aforementioned independent group.
I believe that Resetera was made to be a place where we could feel we belong and, regrettably, a good amount of bigotry still sneaks in. But that means the moderation team needs to take special care in those regards, not a business as usual, check the boxes off, sort of way. What may be banter to some can be bigotry for vulnerable members, and the general lack of attention thereof is one of my biggest issues right now.
but who will moderate the internal affairs moderators?!?

Nice, this is what I wanted. They’re making all sorts of crazy demands. Cerium is either going to have to make concessions or lay down the law and say it’s his joint and his rules.

-
I'm going to get all tinfoily and muse about how one of the moderators in question was one of the most combative, pertinacious Hillary supporters back at the old place. To draw it back to the earlier discussion of how this forum is seen as "left," it's largely by design of the higher ups. They welcome being seen as the place for oppressed and exploited folks to gather and sing their praises, but the minute someone starts agitating a little too much for the liberal ownership, all bets are off. In other words, this place is the Democratic Party.

Time for some game theory (1/543)
Ketkat stays banned, they basically stick to the story and say they don't want to harm anyone further. Nobody really cares because it means an opening for a new transwarlord.
Royalan apologizes says he's learned since then and agrees to step down, they also state he only has one strike before a permaban. Then he probably gets an alt.
ColdSun issues the admin statement, pointing out that the entire admin team has changed and that this is a new beginning for the forum and how they're going to be even more active in actioning evil dooers. Also will point out that unlike the prior admin team none of the current admins have ugly racist children.
Everything goes back to normal.

So when did they throw Kamala Harris into the Sarlaac Pit? She was going to be their savior not that long ago but now she's getting called copmala and shit.

Nice, this is what I wanted. They’re making all sorts of crazy demands. Cerium is either going to have to make concessions or lay down the law and say it’s his joint and his rules. Or he could do nothing and hope the fire burns out in a day or two. Which it probably will :( and then there won’t be excitement anymore :(
clearly someone needs to stoke the fire a bit and dig up an ableist jab from 2007
fizzle out would be boring

I'm going to get all tinfoily and muse about how one of the moderators in question was one of the most combative, pertinacious Hillary supporters back at the old place. To draw it back to the earlier discussion of how this forum is seen as "left," it's largely by design of the higher ups. They welcome being seen as the place for oppressed and exploited folks to gather and sing their praises, but the minute someone starts agitating a little too much for the liberal ownership, all bets are off. In other words, this place is the Democratic Party.

Yeah, I'd recommend the threat discussing new moderation procedures should have limits based on post count and inactivity (someone lookin' to start some shit with an account that got a couple hundred posts on gaming side that hasn't posted in two months shouldn't be allowed in) and maybe discussing trans and other minority issues in those spoiler blocks only people who've looked at the thread can see. That wouldn't be enough but it would help.
Honestly, I think that thread would be best off being a complaint box format (send in PMs) that's filtered by a third party to be answered and discussed. Even basing it on post count and activity could turn into a mess.

Nice try, but ColdSun telegraphed his responsibility too early in the game.
Game theory necessitates the consideration of escalation, and after hours of unrest (into the morning) it will be Cerium himself who will produce a crowdsourced statement (of which he writes maybe two sentences) and his acquittal of KetKat will be his form of penance.
Robin is too tied into her position and clearly salty about stepping down, so KetKat is going to act out and get banned.

No, REEEEsetera is where the real juice is coming from, that's where we feed.
If you are a true hate site denizen, then you must do all that you can do to keep transGAF as part of REEEEsetera. Go to the discords, log into your REEEE alts, go forth to Twitter, hit the IRCs, do whatever you can to keep that fucking insane mob of vitriol condensed into the "most popular gaming forum based on traffic".

These are people who dislike Ace of Base, right? If so I agree, fuck them.
Oh you mean the pop group founded by a neo-nazi?
This wasn't the thread to post a joke like this
Yeah it's so disgusting that no one knows what an acephobe is. I've never even heard of the term till now so am I disgusting also?
Acephobe is someone phobic of ace people. Is that so hard to understand? Pretending to hide behind ignorance is like the #1 alt right tactic these days. If you look at any trans/ace/LGBTQ+ thread there is always someone JAQing off. Ridiculous . Disgusting is phrasing it lightly.
Why are people acephobic?
What's the threat? The reason for hatred?
Bigotry is hard to understand sometimes.
A man turns down visiting a strip club with peers, or turns down a proposal from an attractive woman; "what are you, gay?"
A woman turns down a proposal from a man; "stuck up bitch, lesbian."
This is just my scantily supported hot take here, and is not intended as an explanation for all of this sentiment, but we see this sort of aggression rooted in patriarchy often enough even when the targets are cis-het people. Asexuality threatens this formulation of sexual identity in the same way, but presents as an entire category of identity instead of isolated individuals or instances to be ignored or coerced into conformity.
Friendly reminder that it takes 0.3 seconds to double-click on a word to highlight it, and then right-click on it to search it on Google to find the definition of that word and understand what it means.

I'm throwing this suggestion out here in addition to other suggestions and this is more of my governmental self on this, how about we establish a moderation watchdog similar to the Office of Inspector General or the Office of Special Counsel where the admin and staff, in unanimous agreement, or regular users who wishes to nominate a user, nominates an independent user as an inspector general to which to be advise and consent to every user on the forum or at least have users sign up for it. Having a simple majority or 60% say aye to confirm the user to a one year term which can be renewed up to a limit of 3 years. This user would be charged to lead with examining the actions of the moderators as a general auditor of their operations to ensure they are operating in compliance with generally established policies of the website, to audit the effectiveness of security procedures, or to discover the possibility of misconduct for the staff and admins. If there is misconduct conducted by a admin or moderator reported by a user, the IG will investigate this report and would determine if that moderator did operate in misconduct. If that moderator is found to operate in misconduct, the IG will report to the admin to determine disciplinary actions such as a ban or having their moderation powers revoked.
Another suggestion would be to establish an office similar to the Department of Justice's Office of Special Counsel where only regular users can nominate an independent user as an independent counsel to advise and consent to the same terms and rules except the powers of this counsel to ban and revoking a moderator without having to go to the admin.
Again this is simply a suggestion, if anyone needs to point out any flaws or loopholes, I'm right here.

The moderation here has been awful since just about the beginning. Any pretense of moderating better than NeoGAF fell away pretty quickly (starting with treating even the name of that site like Voldemort was the first big red flag). The worst part is they use the fake transparency of ban reasoning against people. Anyone who complains about a warning or questions the moderation? Upped to a ban. Suddenly you have a record -- and I've seen a ton of people banned for "history of similar infractions", which is basically a bullshit charge akin to "resisting arrest". Worse still are the times they whip out "conspiracy" like the ban Brock Reiher copped in the other thread.
I think somebody would have noticed something like that.
-
I'm not at all comfortable with the dog-piling on Royalan. He's not exactly a person of privilege. I think he should be given the chance to clarify and apologize for his past comments. I also think it's wrong to put all the failings of the moderation solely on him.
I also want everyone to bear in mind that there are entire communities of alt-right losers dedicated to stirring shit up in Era, and that they're reading through this very thread and looking for ways to sow more discord. So let's try to be level-headed.

As a former REsetera LLC (unpaid) employee, I just want to know when we will see your THE STATEMENT where you WILL take full responsibility for the horrendous act of murdering Asexual people for the crime is not being interested in sex.
I mean, don't you understand the damage you are doing to these vulnerable people who have to constantly explain why they don't want to have sex with someone? I mean, their struggle is on par with similarly marginalised groups such as those who need to explain why they don't like cheese or those who don't like reading books.
Asexual rights are human rights.

Wow so he’s not affiliated with era anymore?
But he’s not like a mod or administration anymore? Wonder why.
My understanding is most of the day one staff explicitly committed temporarily to their roles with plans to step down after a few months. It has nothing to do with the current situation.
literally almost none of the og admins/sysadmins/mods are even posting any more
i'm interested to know why former admins and mods aren't disclosing why they stepped down (if it wasn't personal)
I ended up in therapy for some of the shit I saw in my mod career. One time someone spammed gore and hardcore porn in the comments section while our product team worked to put some safeguards in place. I had to read every damn comment that came in via a live feed.
Why did every founding admin step down? That sounds concerning...
Same, seems strange that basically all the admins suddenly changed or stepped down.
Like someone said earlier, when the site was setup some of them only wanted to help kickstart the site and not take on perm long term roles.
I guess the bigger question to ask is whether the owners of the site are still the same and if not, whether it is still by a few people, not solo like Gaf was.
I thought that was always the intention, that the team that got things up and running would eventually all step aside, but I could be wrong.
And as for why most admins and mods step down... have you seen all the shit altrighters and crap are constantly throwing at this forum? It must me taxating to someone after a very long time.
I thought it was literally supposed to end the opposite. IE the site would be owned and ran by multiple people instead of one guy holding all the power like the old site.
Yeah I thought it was the intention for the site to be owned by several people, whether they are mods/admins doesn't matter.
Right, there's a site dedicated to doxxing users here. I wonder how much the staff is affected by it.
-
There are some truly admirable individuals in the moderation team, but the non-transparent approach to their decision making as a team often makes them seem cold, impersonal and automated. I completely understand the desire to protect the privacy and lives of moderators, but the way they go about it sometimes makes them seem like American police forces covering for one another. In the end, the right decision is always reached, and I don't think this time will be any different, but it shouldn't always have to be like this.
-
I ended up in therapy because benji is always quicker than me quoting posts. :goty2

Protecting the lives of moderators :nope
Banning and killing them :ohyeah

East Coast, I'm still up. This is just a personal note from me.
If you want someone's head, frustrations aside that is the wrong way to go about this. My opinion is we should not be a site that comes for people's heads.
Now, I cannot speak for direct admin interactions with members, or anything in any LGBT+ related channels wherever they may be, because I am not an admin, and I do not have access to those channels for a very good reason.
But I can say this. I have spent hours upon hours at a time (into the wee hours of the morning on several occasions) banning people outright for their dismissiveness, prejudice, and harmful words towards people like you who are simply seeking to thrive at ResetEra. Not just because it's site policy, or because I have nothing better to do on a Friday night. Because it's the right thing to do for you, and for everyone. I have even advocated for not being so quick to ban in some cases. And while I'm speaking just for myself here, I have witnessed others do the same. For you. They're still around, even.
And when I am online volunteering for the site, I am obligated to read and address each report that comes in, no matter if it is written nicely, or in anger, or accurately describes the situation, or a misunderstanding, or a misinterpretation, or written in frustration - even if it contains conspiratorial suggestions about other members, or the staff. The conspiratorial posts and reports on Era about staff members (an aspect of Era culture which seems to have become generally accepted, even among the marginalized) really sicken me personally. But as I am working to address the concerns of others on the forum it is not about my feelings, it is about theirs. Yours. So I tolerate it as I go about my duties.
With all that, I refuse to air others' dirty laundry from bans on the site itself. If you want people to truly change, you need to give them the opportunity to do so, and airing their dirty laundry would only interfere with that. If someone is changing and growing or making up for a mistake, I will not contribute to an embarrassment campaign. Same with repeat offenders who have exhibited no change in behavior over a long sustained period, and are permanently banned from the site as part of support for the community. I will not air their dirty laundry on the site, even if that behavior continues to persist outside Era via other avenues. This means that you won't know everything about someone's history of participation on this site, including their interactions with staff, and bans.
But concerning behavior generally, I will say this: What I will not abide as a member, or as a moderator volunteering to support communities like yours, are members - no matter who they are or what they stand for - using site posts and reports in order to attempt to personally manipulate or gaslight me (or any member) into serving their own personal individual ends or games. This type of thing takes time and energy away from whole communities of members who prefer we support the concerns of their identities.
And It interferes directly with supporting you.
Manipulating or interfering with me or anyone on staff (including and especially the LGBT+ members of the staff), whether once or repeatedly over time, is unacceptable to me. You may not see it but you do feel its effects - it absolutely interrupts me and robs me of time and energy when those long hours are needed and the bans to stave off the dismissiveness and harm that can't be processed soon enough. I would think that these delays and interference would be unacceptable to you as well, but I will not speak for you.
Lastly, I will just leave these few questions, really for anyone who is reading this. Is there no room on Era to grow or change, for everyone, or anyone? Do you want to shut down all possibility of that? Again I will not presume to speak for you or your experiences, but from what I understand there are people out there in the world who think the only acceptable consideration for you as a person is removal first and foremost. Is that the only acceptable first step for you as well?
PS. I see another step taken being labeling of others. If I am mistaken, please correct me, but isn't undue labeling the second step taken on you as well?
Thank you for your attention to this personal note from me.

Ceraphium (or whatever his name is) needs to step down as the owner of the site and donate it to a community appointed committee made up of at least 12 posters of diverse backgrounds.
Also, Something needs to be done about the money generated by the forums. Where is the money going? How come this information is not public? Why are they refusing transparency?
The owner should compensate Kitkat with a monetary compensation for the situation tbh

This has taken up the past...eight hours for me (I've had work and the like today), and we're definitely trying to figure something out. We care about this community, especially since it's part of one of the tenets that we founded this site on - inclusion. We're committed to that ideal, just as we've always been. Obviously we know that things can always be better, but we're going to continue to work towards that.

Let's be honest, perma-banning Ketkat is like the worst possible moderation decision. She's done more good for this community than any single individual poster I can think of

SHOSTA: https://www.resetera.com/threads/its-trans-awareness-week-nov-13th-19th.153146/post-26605181
I'm throwing this suggestion out here in addition to other suggestions and this is more of my governmental self on this, how about we establish a moderation watchdog similar to the Office of Inspector General or the Office of Special Counsel where the admin and staff, in unanimous agreement, or regular users who wishes to nominate a user, nominates an independent user as an inspector general to which to be advise and consent to every user on the forum or at least have users sign up for it. Having a simple majority or 60% say aye to confirm the user to a one year term which can be renewed up to a limit of 3 years. This user would be charged to lead with examining the actions of the moderators as a general auditor of their operations to ensure they are operating in compliance with generally established policies of the website, to audit the effectiveness of security procedures, or to discover the possibility of misconduct for the staff and admins. If there is misconduct conducted by a admin or moderator reported by a user, the IG will investigate this report and would determine if that moderator did operate in misconduct. If that moderator is found to operate in misconduct, the IG will report to the admin to determine disciplinary actions such as a ban or having their moderation powers revoked.
Another suggestion would be to establish an office similar to the Department of Justice's Office of Special Counsel where only regular users can nominate an independent user as an independent counsel to advise and consent to the same terms and rules except the powers of this counsel to ban and revoking a moderator without having to go to the admin.
Again this is simply a suggestion, if anyone needs to point out any flaws or loopholes, I'm right here.

WTF is this!? :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
I can't imagine what asexual people go through especially here in the South with marriage, sex, and children and whatnot.
yes, whatnot
Gross, they have sex in the south? ugh, I can't imagine that.
What’s this story? I don’t think I ever heard about it being founded/conceived of before the implosion.
ResetERA was setup already as a site before EviLore's story broke, and people like Nibel/shinobi had already been reaching out to different OTs about the launch of a new site.
This was before any sort of moderator unrest or drama.
All of a sudden people find this obscure post on the comment section of Facebook, PoliGAF ends up as all mods/admins/owners of an llc owning the site and the "influencers" who had reached out to OTs prior also got mod positions.
Are you implying that Cerium somehow orchestrated Showergate? Maybe he knew the girl and told her to tell a story?
Wasn't she determined to be a Russian Honey Pot? :trumps
Also, who is possibly scared of asexuals? If anything I want them to be pre-school and daycare caretakers for my kids. That's if I was a Southerner who has the sex and makes babies.

god you're insufferable. if you've got something to say about me just fucking say it instead of finding an excuse to whine about me every other post you obsessed cretin. I've never blocked a user on any platform until now. Kindly fuck off.

Still using this thread as if it's Mod Awareness Week I see. Everything is always about how hard it is to be a mod, and nothing about how hard LGBT+ people have it here.

one of the staff just needs to ask for a fucking list of all the terrible things happening to LGBT that apparently people aren't reporting
-
Thank for the kind words. I knew spending three years on asexual discords talking about this all day every day would pay off.
>_>
Also now that I understand the context, I think it must also be said that the acephobia concerns in the other thread are not any different than transmedicalist/truscum/gender essentialist arguments a certain youtuber has sparked discussion over about a month ago now. I'm not entirely sure how they reach the conclusions that they my existence invalidates their struggle. Like what, do we need our own Mathew Shephard to be considered legitimate? No. I've lived through and have had enough stories of discrimination and bias to not even blink putting aces on the same playing field.
and whatnot

What’s with FUME5 beef with blamespace?
He probably got sick of me contacting him on discord and saying "hey can you send this to blamespace"

Dogpiling Royalan that's an gay ethnics minorities himself sounds fucking ridiculous to me.
How many of you aware of that fact?
I’m a pan “ethnics minorities” and Royalan is a hack that shouldn’t be a mod
Are you aware of how unintelligent your line of thinking here is
Its not even clear he being acephobic because we just seen snippet of the post without context?
I'll pissed if the first suggestion to fix moderation is removing an etnics gay male.

My investigation is going to expose a lot of things I imagine, the longer I go without reporting just means I'm collecting more and more airtight evidence that will prove the whole case.

For some reason I feel like if I sent a cease and desist to ResetERA.com that looked official they would comply with it unlike everyone else on the internet.

I should probably talk to this FUME5 guy as he seemed to know about blame space's role in this whole thing hours before anyone even looked at the GAF thread sabrina posted.

Maybe you pick on them in middle-school but then in your 20's they just become "shy" people who you try to relate to and encourage to open up. Are gays and trans massive a-holes to the asexuals?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/us-poliera-2019-ot10-go-absent-yourself.153021/post-26602161
Apparently there is some anti-trans shit going on in OT right now involving some mods and people are mad and getting threads locked. I don't have the full picture of understanding right now though but figured i'd blow a signal whistle for investigation.
Especially since a prominent poster in PoliEra has been exposed as acephobic.
In the event that it happens, can someone PM me an invite to poliera discord?
The behavior towards our trans community has been completely unacceptable
Ah, so that's why royalan has been MIA from this thread.
considering ive deposited too much of my time in this community, having a contingency plan in case everything blows up wouldnt be a bad idea
My desperation when gaf imploded had me signing up to the Bore cause i didnt know any better..........fuuuuuuuuck
What needs to happen is just, remove the bad actors, write up a COE and establish some hard guidelines around diversity and inclusion. and have any mod join and accept the conditions bases on those principles, which I would recommend by built by a round table of the greater community to ensure we can make sure we create an inclusive space not tolerant to bad actors.
I'd love to run for mod! My platform in its entirety:
Ban homophobic/transphobic/racist/misogynistic/literal Nazi shit on sight with strict enforcement and actual bans instead of 1 day timeouts for being an irredeemable asshole that we shouldn't want on this forums in the first place. This isn't a business. We shouldn't be coddling people to try to keep their web traffic. Ban deplorables. Period.
This isn't a business.
I mean, it is. Cerium didn't set it up out of the goodness of his heart.
But that's an issue with capitalism.

Era can either be a safe, welcoming place for marginalized people, or it can be a place that treats people with shitty, bigoted views gently in the interest of "change". It can't be both. These are mutually exclusive, because tolerating bigotry means this is not a welcoming place for marginalized people. So pick one.
I'm not going to touch the rest of that post which smacks of martyrdom and an adversarial relationship with the community you moderate. Maybe work on that.

User banned (duration pending review): Excessive hostility over multiple posts, inflammatory false equivalence, derailing a sensitive topic.
If Ket did something that breached privacy, fine, but show your work. I'm afraid I don't take the word of volunteers chirping "use that report button!" very seriously.
Quite honestly, this is some Gaf-level rug sweeping. It's just painted pretty because some mods are trans.

Oh, good grief. You can't reasonably expect people to start asking the pronoun preference of every person they meet. That's insanity, and incredibly socially awkward to boot.
I think making assumptions, and apologize and switch pronouns when corrected, is perfectly fine. I think most trans people understand and wouldn't be offended if you did that but, if someone does get offended for a honest mistake, well, so be it.

Moderation is never perfect on any forum and not here either, but it does not seem like there were any mistakes with Ketkat's ban. Ketkat has been banned before for being a bad faith agitator and for bad behavior here. Violating a private minoritiy discussion to try to snipe at the moderation? Yeah, that's not justifiable. Really seems like some of y'all are just bullying your way to get what you want out of an admin that has already bent backwards to accommodate you.

The issue isn't moderators coming in to share their views. It's that they (broad use - not all) persistently lack an acknowledgent of what trans members on the forum put up with for months in threads surrounding them and their issues. That these became the least accessible places for trans people to discuss their concerns.
Jumping in to talk about how the discontent that has been expressed as a consequence of the above has reduced staff morale and made them upset is poor. Yet it happened in the first staff post. It happened in the second, and it's still happening.
This didn't come out of nowhere and more words have been written asking for the consideration of staff feelings, than have for the people that had to endure that failure in general moderation for those months.
Why do I feel like any thread he's talking about he probably has like 40 posts in? With lots of orange highlighting. And self-quoting.

Firstly. Thank you for making an attempt at some public discussion. I have more than a few words to say, which we'll get to now, but I want to make sure you know that I achnowledge this attempt at a first step.
Hecht. I've had this discussion with you before, and things clearly haven't changed since then. I can't speak to first-hand knowledge, but I'm sure you've had this disucssion many separate times with far more people than just me. This is not a valid excuse. You-- right now-- are not valid. Making it all about yourselves and how hard it is to do us right as if it's all our fault is part of what lead to these threads needing to be made, because as it stands, Era staff are fairly navel gazy. You cannot in one hand ask for us to see things from your side and in the other refuse to even achnowledge ours.
So let me ask you, for when you wake up and have had time to wake up. What's different? What makes this arrangement of words any more impactful than the last time the admins have had them said through whatever mouthpiece? You can say "We're listening" all you want, but there's no historical record to support that statement, just dozens upon dozens of reiterations of itself. There's closed discussions with nothing changing on endless repeat for two years while more and more people grow increasingly dissatisfied with the quality of moderation. Moreover, you say that it's the members that are thinking of staff as "The other", but time and time again, it's proven to be the other way around. What you're doing right now is called projection.
I get that the idea of instant responses and perfect responses is something that some members want out of you. That's not possible, and we both know that it's not possible. But you're using those members and those arguments as a shield against legit criticism and as a result the discussion never moves forward from there. You can't make instant, or perfect responses-- but there is precious little stopping you from making even adequate responses. And making adequate responses would shut a lot of these people up. So, why the resistance? Why did it need to take all of this for this discussion to even happen in the first place? Again, nobody is expecting perfection. I know I can't speak for others with this but I don't even need total transparency. I feel like what the staff have done wrong here is something that would have been obvious had someone taken the time to step back and cool down before rashly making actions that they then had to work backwards from in justificaiton.

What’s fucked up is that the users are demanding special protection for ketkat even if the user did something any other would also be banned for because because the trans folks have such an iron grip on the hive mind of era, it has sparked a revolt am almost saying that a trans can do bannable actions for which they should not be banned for
-
Part of the problem(imo) is the lack of diversity on the Admin team. The mods are diverse, but 6/7 of the Admins are male. Which is kinda wild when you think about it. And I'm willing to bet money that 4 or more of the men are white.

I have talked about none of those specific issues, people, and actions since being demodded, because it comes with the territory. Accessing it and poking around in there is not ok whatsoever because it's not just about violating the privacy of the admins in the minority channel, it's the privacy of every single person and topic that would come up for discussion. I don't know how on earth you can come back from that type of egregious breach of trust on multiple levels.

User Banned (Duration Pending): Transphobia
I wouldn't say cheating, but there is a reason, why male and female athletes are separated. Male bodies most of the time have a physical advantage over woman's bodies. What gender you identify with, doesn't change the nature of your physical body.
This creates an philosophical problem, since woman, who were born with a male body, could keep there natural advantage, which would be unfair for woman, who were born with a woman's body. Do we sort people, how they were born or how they are identify with now?
We group people in different section, since they have different limits. So "woman" and "male" disciplines are technical just limit-group names to begin with. Maybe those groups needs to be updated and have more sections, similar to weight classes in boxing.
And thank you mods for the quick action.
It can really be tiring to read posts of people being 'concerned' about fairness in sports as someone who has first hand experience on the effects of HRT.

They banned ketkat because in the mod's minority safe-space discord (not my words) a mod talked about how asexuals "weren't really a part" of the LGBTQIA movement. ketkat saw this (because she was/is in a relationship with a former mod and they shared computers) and made a post that, very briefly and without naming names, mentioned that mods still needed to grow.
Then all the trans people used it as an opportunity to attack mods for "transphobia" and "going light on transphobes".

the mods probably had an hour of conversation with the poster, decided that they came from a bad faith place and reluctantly had to ban them.
something they'd never take the time out of their precious day to do for trans hero and mental health expert ketkat, mind you

Also, but only within that very narrow lane, it's OK to voice concerns about opaque moderation, obvious wrong think bans and the fact you have to be walking on eggshells.
-
The only reason the acephobic thing is in play is because they tried to overturn Ketkat's ban by arguing she was a whistleblower rather than being her normal shitty self. They didn't even have the smoking gun until sabrina tossed it into the thread, they just knew it was Royalan because that had been going around for some time and he immediately outed himself by posting about her hacking and shit.

They didn't even have the smoking gun until sabrina tossed it into the thread, they just knew it was Royalan because that had been going around for some time and he immediately outed himself by posting about her hacking and shit.
I think Robin mentioned earlier in the thread that it wasn't even Slayven ketkat was referring to, so there's two mods who are bigoted towards asexuals

Honestly, the transparency that has been touted for so long here is really not present. I honestly don’t even know who truly owns the board or how money is spent. At least with Evilore, we knew specifics to a degree.
This clash between the lgbtqa crowd and Era mods/admins has been brewing for a while, there have been some topics that have dealt with mod abuse and transparency, but nothing to this extent. I’m glad it’s picking up steam. It’s important that communities that have been silenced on Era have a voice.
I don’t think that’s going to happen given certain mods that are in place. This really needs to be addressed by an admin because it’s clear for years the mods here aren’t willing to take responsibility for their actions.
slay queen :heartbeat
-
I frankly don't care if Ketkat actually did hack the Discord with an army of Russian bots and Sombra from Overwatch if the information she uncovered is actually true. That's kind of the whole thing about "whistleblowing" -- it doesn't matter how you got the information, and in many cases it's not legal to release it, but you do it anyway.
thank you for helping my post

It would be handy if Mods communicated with the people they were about to ban (or even warning) so users could put forward appeals and reasons against the ban rather than just giving a ban or a punishment without due process.

Oh please, you've been up the ass of the staff since before this even blew up. Your only concern in the Trans Awareness Week thread from the start was pearl-clutching and trumping up the privacy concerns and err'ing on the negative side of one of the largest pillars of support the forum has for mental health and trans communities. Now moving on to the "dogpile" a moderator is getting because they decided they would be the one to shut down the original discussion, close the thread and then directly asked to be held accountable before posts showing their acephobic comments surfaced.
It's the same bullshit that we've had in all the trans issues threads. Policing the extent to which our upset is appropriate when it's the only thing that resulted in moderators paying any attention.
this should be an easy permaban to make the whole problem go away really :teehee

User Banned (Duration Pending): Transphobia
I wouldn't say cheating, but there is a reason, why male and female athletes are separated. Male bodies most of the time have a physical advantage over woman's bodies. What gender you identify with, doesn't change the nature of your physical body.
This creates an philosophical problem, since woman, who were born with a male body, could keep there natural advantage, which would be unfair for woman, who were born with a woman's body. Do we sort people, how they were born or how they are identify with now?
We group people in different section, since they have different limits. So "woman" and "male" disciplines are technical just limit-group names to begin with. Maybe those groups needs to be updated and have more sections, similar to weight classes in boxing.
:salute thank you bigoted mods
How does one get banned for this? :dead
It's the exact problem they have with the mods:
This sort of shit is what happens in every trans related thread on this forum and whilst action was taken rather quickly here it doesn't in other cases. It's so fucking exhausting .

Asexual people have no sexual attraction to anybody. Era: they can also be gay
:confused :confused
I'll bite:
A/homo/bi/hetero-sexual is not the same thing as A/homo/bi/hetero-romantic.
You can be "attracted" to someone and want to be closer to them without the sexual part. Yes, as the majority of the world wants to bump uglies, that sounds weird but it's not an out there concept when you separate companionship from "let's get naked and JAM IT IN every day"
-
A mod needs to demand fucking receipts of every single one of these supposed posts that have slipped through the cracks in trans related threads. And keep demanding the receipts until they shut the fuck up about it because we all know these posts don't actually exist

I keep coming back to something that happened a few weeks ago, where someone was JAQing off in a trans thread. Compared trans women and cis women to breeds of cats or some shit. The poster kept doubling down and was reported by several posters, myself included. Then I got a notification that the poster was found not in violation. So I logically posted "Staff don't care". and for THAT I caught a week ban that was quickly reversed when a bunch of people went "WTF happened here".
If you, or anybody else for that matter, could track this down, it'd be a pretty... pretty good thing, I think. Frankly, we need to start rounding up examples of mods dropping the ball on trans issues. Maybe if we show them all off at once, they'll admit to wrongdoing.
:phil an airing of grievances!

On today of all days.
Now we are engaged in a great forums war, testing whether that community, or any community so conceived and dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that forum might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men men and women persons,living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this forum, under God Ketkat, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

I'm still in the process of reading up on all the things that happened, and frankly, I'm not particularly surprised about all of this, and would like to add in that as member of marginalized groups (gay/demi, Jewish, and less importantly, but still worth mentioning, furry), I generally feel like things such as concerns about representation et al is handled extremely poorly by the staff, particularly on the gaming side (I don't partake much in Ecetera, truth be told). I've encountered pretty blatant bigotry and dismissal of minority concerns within these discussions, and even some of the ones I reported have not been acted upon.
I don't even want to begin talking about the threads shittalking furries whenever they happen to be in the news, like holy shit. Obviously not comparable to the rubbish trans and ace people have to go through, but it's one of the many clear indicators about how the moderation is working with a double standard.
Is this a serious post? I honestly cannot tell. You're starting off by telling an asexual trans person they are factually wrong about an asexual community problem and calling me idiotic. I haven't seen any other posts here quite so disrespectful. I'm autistic and have a hard time with this so please let me know
I hope no one comes at me but i don't think royalan should be de moded, i don't know how to feel about a gay black man being this come after, like yes hes an idiot that shit was 2 YEARS ago, hes also very shitty for acting like him and the other mods were the victims in this.
I bet alot of the people coming after him are white and that shit simply doesnt sit right with me. Someone said he wasnt the one that said the transphobic stuff on he disord so at this point im hoping his opression olympics with ace people has gone away cause he didnt say they werent apart of the queer community. Thats all.

I think the site as a whole needs an actual, experienced community director as site staff. While moderators here are human and volunteers, the history of moderation and enforcement of the site's rules has been spotty at best and looked like favoritism at it's worst, and certain topics, such as this one, show deeprooted problems that really need to be solved over the long term and prevented in the future.
I volunteered my time in the past (proper community building, marketing, PR, all areas of expertise this site is currently lacking) when this place was being spun up and got promptly ignored (which is 100% okay!) but I still believe to this day that this place needs experienced guidance on issues such as this, and "winging it" is not, and has not, been working. I really hope a thread like this leads to an open discussion about what needs to happen and an actual proper plan on how to get there.
It is now 2019, almost 2020. Forums and communities as a whole can not be run in the modern area in a style of how they were run 5-10 years ago.

I don't personally think putting an artificial length of time on how long one could be a moderator would solve much. Mods should be managed and given support/support tools by a proper community director, like any other real established community, and given time off when needed. They should also be given proper guidance in how to deal with even the thorniest of PR issues, as being a moderator also means speaking for a site, the site policies and what the organization stands for.
All in all, this place would benefit from becoming a bit more "professional" so the speak and being run much like how a modern business runs their community. The fact that this hasn't been implemented yet is what's biting the site in the ass right now.
As I said earlier, the site as a whole needs an actual experienced professional in the marketing/PR/community building and management realm.

Bottom line, if someone who is ace says it's acephobic and offensive then no other viewpoints on the matter, well, matter.

This is what all of you are supporting with your cute little Russia images: https://www.resetera.com/threads/fuck-acephobes.153939/post-26609537
Asexuality is persistently seen as a joke or something that can be cured by the right person. It can lead to extremely dangerous situations around relationships, especially with volatile and incendiary partners. They are rarely given validation because it is perceived as a pending state.
God... I remember the first time I vividly ran into acephobia online. There was a tweet being passed around in support of a new, more inclusive lesbian pride flag, because the original one was actually made by a flagrant racist. And I was all on board... until someone in the comments section pointed out that the designer of the new lesbian pride flag had been spewing acephobic drivel on her tumblr for years.
I have an ace friend. When i told my parents about her, they said "well she probably hasnt found the right person". That microcosm represents the invisilibity and indifference ace people receive. A lot of people simply dont understand what they arent.
People are acephobic for the same reasons people are phobic of any sexual orientation or gender variance. They don't understand, leads to fear, leads to big jumps in logic allowing for further harmful behaviour. Etc etc. The two main reasons for aphobia is parents, because they often don't believe that their child could possibly be old enough. Or that it's just a phase. Things you've probably seen crop up elsewhere. The rest that I have experienced is actually from within the queer communities online, in person support groups, and the like where people's ignorance of asexuality allows them to justify saying they aren't queer. Many don't believe in the split attraction model, so to acephobes there is no heterosexual aromantic or asexual heteroromantic it's literally just "Oh these het assholes are trying to invalidate our struggle and infiltrate our community because they want to feel special for not having sex" which ends up getting us called incels which like --- Holy fuck. Not a fan. Our experiences are oversimplified and weaponized against us to keep us from having a place to feel accepted.
Being asexual is a very specific set of othings. There are things it is, and things that it is not. But I have found it difficult to elaborate on the nuance to people who feel typical sexual attraction inasmuch as I fail to grasp a good chunk of society's innate attitudes towards sex. But there are gray areas. Asexuality is supposed to imply a spectrum, but we get oversimplified and wrote as people who are not 'interested' in sex. Which is close but no cigar, because plenty of asexuals might have sex for a number of reasons that don't typically even involve sexual attraction in the first place. I feel like it is much easier to justify dismissal of asexuals because TONS of people choose not to have sex, take breaks, have libido concerns, ED, etc. It's more about attraction, and the nuance is found within the word choice of 'does not feel sexual attraction.' Instead of over simplifying it, it would be helpful to maybe change attitudes of those who are aphobic.
Cishets aren't the problem as much for asexuals. It's the queer community mininmizing us trying to justify treating us like cishets. It is attitudes exactly like yours that make me feel more unsafe. I don't think you're being hostile, I think you are being harmful, abusive, and actively engaging in acephobia and I would like to see you stop, possibly even apologize-- so I take a break from trying to convince the internet my existence is valid.

To be fair, things used to be a lot better. We used to have two administrators who were transgender (including myself), plenty of other LGBTQ admins, and a representation closer to 40% of administrators. Today, there's one administrator on staff who is a woman, no transgender administrators, to the best of my knowledge. Not sure about the rest of the LGBTQ among administrators, but it is certainly far less than what it was previously.
Change, particularly among staff, starts at the top, and administrators are the ones who set and determine the policies that the forum is moderated by. I think rotating mods would actually be harmful in the grand scheme of things because being a mod requires very specific skill sets, isn't for everyone, and is extremely easy to abuse or mess up. I'm all for more diversification in the administration though. It was something I championed for even while I was on the admin team and we we were doing better, and it is needed now more than ever.

KetKat other than Resetera has really no digital footprint no twitter, nothing. What if the real twist is that she is just a head mate of Robins?
Also bitterNicole a member who destroyed the Steam community and further baited with the "MW2 Boycott" going around acting like her shit doesn't stink is absolutely insane.
I think moderation are actually letting the crazies just fight this one out until they're all tired and then will come back and black bag and tag (duration pending) on the ring leaders.

(Not necessarily an attack on Pogi, just something I've noticed)
I don't personally think putting an artificial length of time on how long one could be a moderator would solve much. Mods should be managed and given support/support tools by a proper community director, like any other real established community, and given time off when needed. They should also be given proper guidance in how to deal with even the thorniest of PR issues, as being a moderator also means speaking for a site, the site policies and what the organization stands for.
All in all, this place would benefit from becoming a bit more "professional" so the speak and being run much like how a modern business runs their community. The fact that this hasn't been implemented yet is what's biting the site in the ass right now.
As I said earlier, the site as a whole needs an actual experienced professional in the marketing/PR/community building and management realm.
I would respect the hustle, if he wasn’t offering to become a mod for free. :juicy

he's trying
In the professional world of product marketing, public relations and community management, feedback about moderation, moderators and approaches to thread moderation should be welcomed and invited, and all of that feedback would head to someone in charge of parsing it, pulling out the important information and making community improvement/action plans based off the feedback. This would create a system where moderators are allowed to focus on doing their jobs efficiently while community members can also feel like they are being listened to and followed up on in a way that shows actionable change.
This is usually bolstered by ideas such as monthly community chats to talk about community direction and other ideas along those lines.
These ideas aren't "pie in the sky" or things that seem nice on paper. They are all fully achievable.

It's not that far fetched.
Their partner (who is sexual) wants to have sex, they'll do it with them because that makes their partner happy which makes them happy.
But they have no interest in actually engaging/taking the initiative on having sex.

I'd guess this difference is probably the largest obstacle to more widespread support -- a lot of people are likely going to point out that asexuality isn't legally, er, "compromised"? as homosexuality or transsexuality. There isn't a law against not having sex, I guess.
Keep in mind that a majority of white Americans also believe racism no longer exists following the passage of the Civil Rights Act. The idea that discrimination against marginalized groups is tied solely to legal oppression is a lie deliberately perpetuated by privileged power structures so that they can avoid having to address systemic problems within society.
"No means no."

I will remind people that Ketkat was also a major pillar of the mental health community here, many of whom are vulnerable and found great solace, comfort and confidence from the dedication she gave in supporting them.
This can't be understated. I made a post to the same effect in the thread describing moderation's actions within the LGBT community, but is anybody on the mod team willing to pick up the slack for people going through marginal times in that thread assuming Ketkat stays gone? Because I somehow doubt it. If their work's already this hard for them, I'm not sure any of them have the personal resources to take on that added responsibility. Having the personal poise to comfort people in those situations is a rare thing.

If ketkat is so essential why does she need to be on the forum. She is banned. Contact her outside the forum. Create your own discord group. Why can’t you separate the user on era with the person itself. I mean these bozos are not even making sense. It’s as if era is the last communication platform on earth

What spurred this? ResetERA was founded before EviLore's implosion by PoliGAF and Cerium with help of Nibel and folk, is something similar happening?
This is very true and I can confirm it, but you left out some importants parts of the story, which make it even more pathetic.
I know this thread is for laugh only, but still, I'll post it here :
"They" (Cerium, Shinobi...) were building a gaf alternative because according to them Gaf's moderation was really biased toward Sony (which was true, let's be honest) and they thought Nintendo wasn't treated fairly. Those same people thought the Wii U's failure and 3DS cold welcome from the market were partially due to Neogaf's attitude toward the two console (which were false, of course). They couldn't shut up about it.
As far as I know, the Gaf's alternative was also brought-up during the "Alison Rapp" case, when she was outed as a prostitute and got fired for it. According to Cerium, he maintained (in private) that Gaf's staff didn't stand up enough for her. That's the moment Cerium aggregated many of the most unhinged feminist of Gaf to his small revolution.
Now, the juicy part is not only Cerium and some gaf posters took part in the projet. There was also many journalists that were mad at gaf and were thinking about it. If you always wondered why the Shower event was covered that extensively (while no one gave a fuck about Malka's past behavior), it's only because the timing was perfect to bring gaf down this time and some journalist knew an alternative was in the work. Outside of seeing the receipts of those discussions, when you see articles like that : https://kotaku.com/thousands-of-neogaf-users-flock-to-new-website-1819871316 that screams like an advert popping and know who the author of the article is, the writing was on the wall.
I know someone who knows Besada and Cerium very well. I also happen to know Alison Rapp personally.

I got sort of a funny story. So I go to the doctor because I have the flu, and so he looks in my mouth and ears and all that shit, and he goes to take my blood pressure with one of those arm band things that they tighten around your arm. Anyway he holds my arm in the process of attaching it, only for like 2 seonds, and I pretty much immediately start to get this weird warm feeling where he touched. It felt really good, not in a sexual way or anything, but it just felt really good, even 30 seconds afterwards. And it wasn't like he had grabbed my arm tightly or nothing, he had barely touched it. I had no idea why until it dawned on me that it was probably the first time someone had actually physically touched me in any capacity for years. Oxytocin is real.
Anyway, i'm not asexual, although from the outside in, i'm sure it's fairly indistinguishable, and i've never felt discriminated against because of it.

Like if you weren't banned for reasons like Ketkat (and look in the mirror and know that 99.9999% of you weren't) was, shut the fuck up because chances are you probably deserved it. The issue here isn't that moderation is too harsh it's that it's soft and far too forgiving because of some noble goal of changing people or whatever

None of that information was shared or used in anyway that would warrant a ban. Knowledge of this information is not the fucking issue here. If someone came here and said "hey I had access to this discord channel where some mods were supporting a neo naazi group" not a single person on this site outside of troll accounts would be talking about the issue of privacy over the real issue at hand.

I’m a girl who has a penis, and don’t ever plan to get rid of it. I certainly wouldn’t consider it male genitalia because I’m not a male.
You know what ima back out of this because yea but agree to disagree tho
Dont seee how that makes me but I'm out enjoy
1) Girls can have penises
2) Therefore, penises are not by definition male
hope that helps! if you agree to disagree, you're a transphobic shithead!

I'm still in bed, but just want to clarify a few things here.
We have an appeals process. We don't mention the member of the staff member responsible for a ban, because no sole staff member is ever responsible. No one is banned by a moderator, but by the moderation team. The staff work together as a team, on most everything. You can mention the name of those sites, most users just find it uncouth to do so and choose not to.
Most of this has always been publicly documented under our General Guide to ResetEra, which is always available, through the announcements, or at the bottom of every page, through the FAQ link.
Addresses none of the actual problem tho. :doge
But I like that it starts out with him literally being tired. :lol

I want more than just an implication and assumption because it will communicate to me and probably more people how willing they are to admit fuck ups and change going forward. Assuming their guilt is just going to close doors rather than opening them.
We are here in this thread to discuss how moderation has failed in their purpose regarding LGBT community. And the only reason we are here is because WE CARE. So let’s be productive about it. I’m not interested in implied guilt. I want them to communicate yes or no.

I haven’t said anything publicly yet. I’ve been given permission to speak openly and honestly now, and respond to people.
But first, an apology.
To the Resetera community at large; I am sorry.
To the Resetera Mod team who are now being held responsible for my words; I am sorry.
To the NB/Asexual/Trans community that has been made to feel devalued and erased by my words; I am sorry.
To the Black and Queer communities who looked to me to advocate for them; I am sorry.
I will be stepping down.
If there is anything else that people want me to respond to? I am currently able.
:'(
Now that's how you do an apology! No argument that this was two years ago, no argument that there was more nuance to it and that he didn't actually say that asexuals aren't part of lgbt. Just full on goatsie.

Sweet Nicole now apologzing to Royalan :lol
I respect you so much Royalan. I'm sorry for all that has happened, and I hope you're going to be OK, even if you're not ok right now.
I will always remember when you, internally, raised how we can be doing more for these communities, and how we should be handling things going forward. It was a great thing that helped us improve our processes and decision making a lot in the early days.
Thanks for all you've done. If you're ever in Chicago, feel free to hit me up. Drinks are on me.

who TF made that?
Doesn't matter. It's probably the best thing to get out of this drama. Glorious meme. Excelblabla must be on fire right now. :sabu
When you make a meme that even The Bore find borderline, you hit something.
There’s lots of reasons to make fun of Excel. Being trans shouldn’t be one.
When someone use his status, be it trans, gay or anything else, to shield themselves from anything and behave like a dick, I think it's fair-game.
Excelsirlief whole life revolve around reminding people that they're a trans and that grant them some rights to behave like they do. You must hit where it hurts the most.

Disagreed on one aspect of the cause he shared with them so he was cast out like the leper he is :trumps
There's much more to unpack with this move but that involves care posting and I'll be damned if I do for a site I can't and don't want to post on anymore

Surely, Royalan's apology is something not enough something something empty something, right? Right?

I'm not calling anyone out, but I feel that the apology rings rather hollow. I appreciate that action is being done, but there's still many lingering questions.
1. Did royalan's acephobia factor into any moderation decisions, such as Xaszatm's thread closure?
2. Is royalan still acephobic?
3. If so, does he have a willingness or desire to address his irrational biases?
4. If not, how have his views evolved?
I don't really feel comfortable that the actual things royalan had said, he hadn't actually acknowledged them. While he no longer has moderator power, he definitely has pull and people who respect him, and I think there's valid concern there still.

It was the Surreal Life.. he was a total creep, here's a blurb I found:
http://www.zimbio.com/Douchiest+90s+Sitcom+Stars/articles/6/Top+5+Douchiest+90s+Sitcom+Stars
Appeared On: Perfect Strangers (1986-1993)
Character: Balki Bartokomous
Douchebag Credentials: Perfect Strangers was primarily a vehicle for Bronson Pinchot to rip off Andy Kaufman's vastly funnier and vastly more interesting Latka Gravas from Taxi. As Balki, there was rarely a scene that Pinchot didn't manage to chew his way through. His life after Perfect Strangers is Douchebaggery 101. Pinchot appeared on the fifth season of VH1's The Surreal Life, where he slowly creeped out every single female cast member by being a pathetic old lech. His groping hug of Janice Dickinson was so over-the-line that she nearly quit the show on the spot, later saying, "I don't like this guy. This guy is a gimp motherfucker." Pinchot, for his part, told the cameras, "I believed in my heart Janice and I will hook up somehow."
"I believed in my heart Janice and I will hook up somehow." :lol

Also, obviously, transparency is a must. Meta commentary on moderation cannot be a taboo subject anymore, as having it be so is explicitly anti-transparency, especially given how many people have been frustrated by how difficult it can be to get information from moderators in private.

You know, I don't really give a shit one way or the other about asexuality. I was wondering why that is. I think it is something to do with them not doing something as opposed to doing something. When you think about it, most sexual orientations are defined by your action where as asexuality is defined by your inaction.

Nah. The trans community on reset are obnoxious arseholes, but that doesn’t make it OK to take a swing at trans people as a whole. Same goes for atheists, feminists, and a few other labels. Don’t let vocally miserable arseholes in one corner of the net skew your perception of entire demographics.
Mind you, I don’t like people mocking Slayven for his spelling so maybe I’m just sensitive. Or tired. So tired.

You know what ima back out of this because yea but agree to disagree tho

2) Therefore, penises are not by definition male

It's not really affecting anything on the forum as a whole, though. Just a couple of threads with a small number of people taking part. The most interesting thing about it is that they still haven't locked the thread with the title "ResetEra Moderation Staff is Fucking Up Beyond Belief on LGBT+ Issues" or banned many people. You just know they'd do this if it were about anything else. :lol

It's not really affecting anything on the forum as a whole, though. Just a couple of threads with a small number of people taking part. The most interesting thing about it is that they still haven't locked the thread with the title "ResetEra Moderation Staff is Fucking Up Beyond Belief on LGBT+ Issues" or banned many people. You just know they'd do this if it were about anything else. :lol
Why don't they all just stop posting in protest or go start up another forum? :thinking
I know, but we need more kindling to keep the fire burning. It’s going to burn out without more bodies. We need more escalation.

They go start a new forum, that takes time away from being able to post just how tired they are. This route is much more slacktivist for them.

The post was edited, but quoted in another post:
Definitely Royalan.
I love how they're shitting all over him for this, yet Sweet Nicole said the same thing earlier:

Roy, can you at least let us know that a staff announcement of some kind if being prepared and that something constructive is happening behind the scenes right now? Everyone is in the dark it feels like.
Hobbes with the hard-hitting questions. He's gonna get to the bottom of this story! :punch
-
Yes it's being worked on.
:hyper
-
And to think that just last week he was advocating for aggravated assault. He really stepped up to the plate when we needed him.
After all, he‘s an incident manager.
-
My face part is that Roylan wasnt even the mod who said the bad thing in the discord.
It was probably a cis mod.
But they just had to lynch the one gay black mod, all while complaining that the mod ranks arent gay enough.
-
Does anyone have evidence of these so-called transphobic posts on RE that go unpunished?

Hobbes seems like cool folx I don’t know why you all make fun of him :fbm
absolutely, and now theres a mod vacancy open era would be crazy not to give those powers to someone so transparently desperate to have them
-

I don't use the term An Hero lightly, but his twitter really suggests he might Become An Hero sooner rather than later.

Every time I see a comment that is slightly transphobic or anti-race, the poster is always banned. Always.

Roy got rolled up on by the very group and culture he advocated Reset should cater to :lol Hoisted on his on petard.
This entire incident should be a wake up call to all the mods/admins on Reset: Say anything that a certain protected group on Reset doesn't like, and watch as your rep as an 'ally' is shredded in taters, and see how fast Cerium and the other mods/admins throw you to the wolves the placate the hoard.
Seeing how they love tearing people down for years old tweets/social media posts, I guess I must commend them on their consistency at least.

Lets get this thread back on topic. Giraffe got dunked on and even made it worse for themself, but that should not be the focus of this thread at the moment.
The derailing of threads regarding the trans community is something I'm sure many are familiar with. Do not let it continue to happen.

He's trying REALLY hard to get a mod spot.

Ok wtf is Hobbes? I put him on ignore awhile back because like Lion Pride, likes to talk in CAPS when angry, very annoying. Why is he verfied though? He's an incident manager? Is he Ceriums lawyer?

He was stalking Kagari, but he had a blood feud with Vom that may have been completely one sided.

Nah. The trans community on reset are obnoxious arseholes, but that doesn’t make it OK to take a swing at trans people as a whole. Same goes for atheists, feminists, and a few other labels. Don’t let vocally miserable arseholes in one corner of the net skew your perception of entire demographics.
Mind you, I don’t like people mocking Slayven for his spelling so maybe I’m just sensitive. Or tired. So tired.
Edit: fuck things have moved on a lot since this post so now I’ve just left a late care post here. This event is taking a toll on all of us. #FREEROYALAN.
When it comes to Slayven, it's not so much mocking his spelling, it's mocking him for trying to use words that he clearly doesn't understand in an attempt to make himself sound smart.

This is bullshit. Did you pay any attention to why that old Royalan post was dredged up?

No it was both. I was in a bad mood last night.

"Trans threads that are always filled with the same posters saying fuccckkkkk offffffoffffff to any questioning or disagreement are the most toxic graveyard threads on era, I just can't see what the common theme is" say the posters in every one of those threads being toxic and causing graveyards

I just can't figure out what common element there is to make it that way

Of course Hobbes is a moderator on Reddit. It all makes sense.

So many allies definitely not there for drama, as the anti-mods thread made today is only 6 pages behind the stickied trans thread made last thursday
-
So the root of this is people not being permabanned fast enough for thinking that women have the right to refuse to touch a dick? (you-know-who thread)
Or merely being banned a month for suggesting there is a biological difference in athletics between men and women. (the other thread or two floating about)
Or is there something else lighting the keg here?

Like, this is similar to what Chelsea Manning did. Exposing bad things is good but the way they did it was wrong. Innocent people get wrongly or could be caught in the crossfire.

1. Total representation of the LGBTQIA+ rainbow on the admin team
2. Cerium to step down
3. Redistribution of era clear and ad revenue to minority members
4. Israel to retreat to borders as they were prior to the six day war

Has Hobbes surpassed RedMercy as being the biggest, most pathetic brown-noser on Reset?
-
But only one person can really get in there at a time
-
Are we sure Cerium is still even alive at that point ? Are the ERA checks filling a never emptied mailbox while the forum runs on auto updates ?
I'm amazed the mods haven't stomped down on this. Would be no less ridiculous but it never stopped down before. I guess the optics are too bad and that they might curfew the forum itself but can't control the network of backroom Discords being inflamed.
SweetNicole pontificating and Hobbes impersonating modship is pretty dire, that's probably the most unforgivable crime in GAFERA culture.

This seems to be making 0 waves outside of that thread. The gaming side Discords I’m in are operating completely normally.

People play virgin, but I'm sure some of you laughed hard at the Kiwi meme. ;)
Nah. The trans community on reset are obnoxious arseholes, but that doesn’t make it OK to take a swing at trans people as a whole. Same goes for atheists, feminists, and a few other labels. Don’t let vocally miserable arseholes in one corner of the net skew your perception of entire demographics.
Mind you, I don’t like people mocking Slayven for his spelling so maybe I’m just sensitive. Or tired. So tired.
Edit: fuck things have moved on a lot since this post so now I’ve just left a late care post here. This event is taking a toll on all of us. #FREEROYALAN.
That meme was strictly aimed at Excelspreedshit, no one else. I'm not sure what you're on.
We're speaking about someone who spends his daily life pointing fingers at others, on his moral highground, basically being a dick toward everyone else, even trans people. Everything that comes his way is entirely deserved. Exel should be happy no one has slapped his mouth back to reality IRL (yet) because at that point, nothing prevent it from happening.

Have you made Royalan a mod here yet or what?

The simple answer to all this is for them to make their own Discord/forum. They are acting like they are forced to use ResetERA and that it's their only option. It is not like subsets from that community haven't successfully branch off from it before (Slaent). The entire existence of ResetERA was due to them fucking off from shower goblin's place and making a new place for themselves.
-
but they couldn't moan and complain about how oppressed they are if they are somewhere else. much easier to stay there and cry rather than just make a forum where you can't see the posts unless approved.

They tried it and it failed.
Regarding Discord:
I made an attempt to operate a SocialERA/FriendsERA Discord server, it was operating pretty well with active conversations on multiple topics ranging from LGBT+ issues to mental health and I had an active mod team that was successfully banning the trolls and bigots who managed to slip through, until now where currently it has absolutely no activity :( I still have ERA members in my Discord server but no one is chatting in any of the channels.
If people would want to join my Discord and I make an attempt to restart conversations in said Discord, simply send a private conversation to me to request an invite link to said server and once you join, please say Hi.[\quote]

For the good of the community, we are commuting Ketkat's ban to time served. After speaking at length with Ketkat, we recognize that the breach of privacy was the crux of the problem and that it was a mistake to reference the personal relationship in the initial banner.
The timing and place of the ban sent a message to the community that was never intended in the least, and we sincerely apologize for that above all. We're taking this moment to listen, and we have reached out to the TransEra community to open direct dialogue about how we can all move forward and heal together.

Leaving resetera isn’t really an option for most of these folx though, they can lie to themselves if they like but there are plenty of progressive spaces on the internet that serve basically the same purpose; the real defining feature of ree is the gamification of the reporting and banning system. You get a notification every time someone you report gets actioned, ban messages and durations are public, and mods are extremely trigger happy and easily manipulated. The only thing it needs to be the perfect forum for faux sjw gamers is a modern warfare style guitar riff when you get a successful ban.

Complete and total capitulation.
WOW.
If I was a mod i wouldn't feel safe there anymore. Someone invades your private discord and doxes you and the result is that a minority gay mod gets fired and the mole gets rewarded

You know how slow government agencies like the DOJ work. And benji had been on a 16 hour shitpost bender, it probably took some time to wake him up.

Cerium has no spine. Evilore would have told them to fuck off.
-
I can confirm from my end that ResetEra staff reached out to the TransEra community several hours ago, and that the community is eager to have this dialogue with the ResetEra staff and identify the next steps forward everyone can take together.
Thanks to the ResetEra staff and to everyone else who was involved in helping this come to fruition. I'm pleased with the conversations so far, and I'm hopeful there will truly be positive steps that result from all of this.
Positive steps meaning: Do as we say. Or else. :lol

Gonna be such a bummer if they don’t mod incel or muteki

Even better, you're allowed to walk over and shit on the mods if you are a protected group. Cereal absolutely won't back you up at all.
If any mods had a backbone and weren't in it to power trip, I don't see why you wouldn't walk away and get that headache out of your life.

The burden should not be on the marginalized to have to provide a forum in which to educate their oppressors.

Hey there everyone, I’m here right now and I have a lot of things that I want to say about this whole situation. First of all, I want to thank all of you who sent me kind messages both within these threads and on discord as I really appreciate them! There are so many times where I look at the state of the society that we live in and question the impact that one person can have against the tide of bigotry and mental health stigma that exists, and comments like yours do a lot to alleviate those concerns!
As for the big accusation, there’s a lot to say about this. First and foremost, I want to make it clear that I did not invade Robin (my girlfriend’s) privacy to look through her private discords, messages, or anything else. I am not interested in being the kind of person that can not be trusted in the most basic ways, and it was shocking for me to see staff assume that I would do that so quickly. When I made that initial post talking about moderation and the issues that exist within it, I posted some information that was from a private staff discord. I knew it was from there, and I chose to post it publicly instead of going to them in private or attempting to find a real solution to it. I regret posting it in that manner as I never had any intention of starting any large scale drama about this incident, and I chose to keep the names private for the safety of the moderation team. However, I now see that I didn’t put as much consideration into that as I should have to begin with. There are quite a few places that exist off-site purely to document and harass notable people on this forum, and that includes people on the moderation team as they tend to stand out more. I have dealt with harassment from these people as being a minority or part of a vulnerable group seems to make you a target for them, and this is doubly true for minority staff members. I was hurt and disappointed that people that I consider close friends believed that I was capable of this, but they’re not bad people for thinking this. They’re just scared. And I don’t fault them for that.
The reasons that they provided in that initial thread detailed a history of suspicions that I was looking into their discord as well as that I knew some moderation terminology that was used behind the scenes. In the email that I sent, I referenced a very specific thing that is used however this specific term is one that is an open secret of sorts and I’ve seen it used in quite a few places. Throughout this investigation that occurred, I was never once contacted or informed what any of these suspicions were actually about, so as of this moment, I am still unaware of what they are and unable to comment on them. It’s hard to hear that there’s evidence against you that you aren’t allowed to see, but again keep in mind that at this point they’re still concerned for their privacy and unsure if they can trust me. I don’t blame them for wanting to avoid more of that, especially as they went looking for that conversation and did not feel the same way about it. I was assured by someone on the team who I deeply trust and is LGBT that the claim that this statement and the person who made them were against asexuals was incorrect and a misunderstanding.
And I do want to reiterate here at the end, I left out the names on both of those issues in my post for a reason. I understand the desire for wanting to know who said what in these conversations, but the way that this desire has manifested is worrying. There are mistakes that have been made by the moderation team throughout this whole ordeal as I know all too well. But at the same time, we can not realistically expect the people who moderate this website to feel safe when people are digging through their personal lives looking for anything that can be used.
I regret posting that line the way that I did and I’m sorry for all the headache that this has caused both you as users and the staff throughout this ordeal.
someone read this and give me spark notes
"On to the next sacrifice"

Ok....so she didn't spy on her girlfriends discord
But admits to going into a private server
So.....she hacked into it? Am I reading that right?
If so yeah I don't blame them for banning her.
-

It is all about "What have you done for me lately." Doesn't matter how much of an "ally" you were in the past. You step out of line, and you get the stick. Fuck, wasn't it Royalan that convinced the admins to leans hard on progressiveism and to have zero-tolerance on conservative voices on Reset? You'd think with that and his years of service of being a good ally would give him some credit, but no. When they get into a froth, bringing up nuance and context is just alt-right dogwhistling in their view.
-
So does this mean that KetKat is Barabbas and Royalan is Jesus?
-
Wow, I've been taking Greyhound while on a lot of drugs, and catching up on this was a great way to kill a couple hours. And with a twist ending!
Cerium actually allowed TransEra to start the coup! It's not over! :lol

So, let me go through and answer the questions I posed earlier last night regarding this issue and see if we've progressed.
--
Are the allegations made by the banned user true?
"I was assured by someone on the team who I deeply trust and is LGBT that the claim that this statement and the person who made them were against asexuals was incorrect and a misunderstanding."
If the allegations are true, what is being done to correct / educate this moderator's behavior and view?
See above
What specific site rules exist that allow such a ban to occur, given that the incident (the breach of privacy on a Staff discord) occurred off-site, and was simply mentioned in passing in a post?
Given reason post unban is that user violated a staff safe space.
Why was the ban permanent rather than shorter?
User unbanned.
Does this breach of privacy warrant such a strong punishment?
Not answered, but clearly reversed due to public outcry.
How was the investigation conducted?
This is unknown. Per Robin, 30 minutes elapsed from the original post being published to the user being banned. Ket then states "throughout this investigation that occurred, I was never once contacted or informed what any of these suspicions were actually about, so as of this moment, I am still unaware of what they are and unable to comment on them."
The investigation does not seem to have involved Ket up until very recently.
What information was provided that proved misconduct and malicious intent on part of the banned user?
Also unknown. Moderation as alluded to certain terminology being used as evidence, but that doesn't seem to suffice.
NEXT STEPS:
"We're taking this moment to listen, and we have reached out to the TransEra community to open direct dialogue about how we can all move forward and heal together. "
OMG I love Hobbes so fucking much :sabu
-
holy shit this fucking dude
-
So who was the asexual-murderer?
Robin.
Think about it.
-
Nepenthe pointed out that we need to be careful about hate sites monitoring this site but honestly i feel like the fear that quite a few people here have for those hate sites is influencing how this site handles certain things a little too much. Their seems to be this idea that we can't discuss certain things because those hatesites will take advantage of us in that moment to fan the flames.
nobody anywhere is fanning the flames, you idiots are doing that all by yourself
They’re not wrong about ResetEra being monitored by a hate site, if not really the same hate site they’re thinking
(http://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/885/519/eef.png)
-
Yeah, I am not convinced of the moderation's understanding and willingness to fix what got us here in the first place.
:punch

Hobbes is leveraging the chaos to quickly gain protected member status. I can respect that hustle.
-
He's going to put this on his resume
-
So the root of this is people not being permabanned fast enough for thinking that women have the right to refuse to touch a dick? (you-know-who thread)
Or merely being banned a month for suggesting there is a biological difference in athletics between men and women. (the other thread or two floating about)
Or is there something else lighting the keg here?
There was also that transphobic comic posted by adult swim that turned out to be not transphobic at all.
-
Cerium has a good racket going. No one ever questions him with these blowups. It's all on the volunteer staff who take the brunt.
I can't believe people don't realize this.
Why would anyone want to mod there?
-
There will be a dialogue in the coming days with TransEra and ResetEra staff for both sides to discuss what has been going on. This issue existed in the first place because of gaps between these two groups, and hopefully by them coming together to have a conversation with each other will result in a resolution and path forward that both groups can agree with and find acceptable.
I don't know when that will happen yet because everyone needs to take a moment to breathe, relax, and cool down, but hopefully be a productive conversation that helps makes things better for everyone involved, both community and staff alike.
Either way, it might be a while before you hear an update, so the most important thing for now is just have some patience, relax, and let things run their course.

Volimar also resigned (https://www.resetera.com/threads/resetera-moderation-staff-is-fucking-up-beyond-belief-on-lgbt-issues.153951/post-26619270):
Hey everyone I just wanted to make a post to explain why I'm no longer a moderator because with the current state of things I worry there may be confusion. I realize some may read this and think I'm trying to make an appeal to emotion, but I can only hope that people who know me also know that I have tried my best to always be supportive and constructive in trans issues threads and will know that my intentions are true.
I'm physically disabled and I have been diagnosed with depression and two anxiety disorders. None of this is new information. I've spoken about it in other threads and even shared what medications I take because I think it's important to de-stigmatize mental health issues. As you can imagine, those issues have caused me a lot of trouble the past few days as I'm sure they have with those of you who similarly suffer. For me, they peaked last night as I turned off my computer and started getting ready for bed. I had an attack. Thankfully, I've had them frequently enough to know how to ride them out and calm myself after. But this morning I woke up feeling physically awful. Those of you who have also had attacks may be familiar with that feeling you get after or sometimes the next day, where your body just feels incredibly hungover, thrown in a mixer, and then poured over a pile of garbage.
It was a wake up call, and one that's been coming for a while. I want to emphasize that I don't blame the current events for what happened, since if it hadn't happened now, it could have just as easily have happened the next time some game developer or celebrity did something terrible and we had a blowup thread over it. Anxiety by its very nature is unpredictable. It's made me realize that I need to take care of myself. If you get nothing else from this post, please take away the importance of taking care of yourself. I haven't read what's happened since I went to bed and in my current state I don't plan to, but I know there's a lot of people dealing with a lot of stress right now. Prioritize self care.
If anyone has questions or comments or replies or whatever, please PM me rather than quoting my post as I don't want to derail from people's concerns (but be aware that I plan on trying to get myself to a better head space before replying so it may be a while before you get a reply). I'm not trying to make things about me. I simply wanted to make sure there was a reference post for people to link members who might have questions about my resignation and whether it was related to what's going on right now. Thanks in advance for pointing them in the right direction.

I’m really looking forward to the next time KetKat and the alphabet mafia doesn’t get their way.

Why would anyone want to mod there?

Man, Royalan got done dirty by this whole thing :lol
Showed his face for like five seconds, Sabrina comes out nowhere with a CROPPED AND MISLEADING QUOTE... BECAUSE SHE WAS IN A BAD MOOD! :lol
KetKat finally gets unbanned, everyone rejoices and somehow forgets about the safe space for moderator bigotry and the original acephobe... and Royalan is still left out in the cold :lol
And all this somehow took 24 hours.
I would almost feel bad for Royalan if Sabrina's execution wasn't so flawless. Just an immediate Fatality :lol

What does "time served" mean in the context of a permaban?

Volimar also resigned (https://www.resetera.com/threads/resetera-moderation-staff-is-fucking-up-beyond-belief-on-lgbt-issues.153951/post-26619270):
Hey everyone I just wanted to make a post to explain why I'm no longer a moderator because with the current state of things I worry there may be confusion. I realize some may read this and think I'm trying to make an appeal to emotion, but I can only hope that people who know me also know that I have tried my best to always be supportive and constructive in trans issues threads and will know that my intentions are true.
I'm physically disabled and I have been diagnosed with depression and two anxiety disorders. None of this is new information. I've spoken about it in other threads and even shared what medications I take because I think it's important to de-stigmatize mental health issues. As you can imagine, those issues have caused me a lot of trouble the past few days as I'm sure they have with those of you who similarly suffer. For me, they peaked last night as I turned off my computer and started getting ready for bed. I had an attack. Thankfully, I've had them frequently enough to know how to ride them out and calm myself after. But this morning I woke up feeling physically awful. Those of you who have also had attacks may be familiar with that feeling you get after or sometimes the next day, where your body just feels incredibly hungover, thrown in a mixer, and then poured over a pile of garbage.
It was a wake up call, and one that's been coming for a while. I want to emphasize that I don't blame the current events for what happened, since if it hadn't happened now, it could have just as easily have happened the next time some game developer or celebrity did something terrible and we had a blowup thread over it. Anxiety by its very nature is unpredictable. It's made me realize that I need to take care of myself. If you get nothing else from this post, please take away the importance of taking care of yourself. I haven't read what's happened since I went to bed and in my current state I don't plan to, but I know there's a lot of people dealing with a lot of stress right now. Prioritize self care.
If anyone has questions or comments or replies or whatever, please PM me rather than quoting my post as I don't want to derail from people's concerns (but be aware that I plan on trying to get myself to a better head space before replying so it may be a while before you get a reply). I'm not trying to make things about me. I simply wanted to make sure there was a reference post for people to link members who might have questions about my resignation and whether it was related to what's going on right now. Thanks in advance for pointing them in the right direction.
Yes, we knew this like an hour or two ago, Benji-san.

Nothing of consequence done to those who actually did something wrong here. But a black gay guy was forced to give up mod status for something said two years ago, even though the fucking bitch who dug it up cropped out part of the post to fit her agenda because she was in a bad mood, of course no ban for this.
Fucking spineless cretins that yet again show they are, for whatever reason, legitimately scared of those they are in charge of moderating. Literally would take the same amount of time to ban all of them that it takes them to ban the many, many others perma'd since the site came online.

I've seen some extremely nasty fake rumors spread from those kinds of people on twitter that got shut down with proof of how they were faked, and members who have been caught from other sites here. There are certainly people out there that want nothing but to break ERA apart and harass anyone and everyone that they can, and I've even seen a few of those posters pop up posting fake rumors masquerading as a "concerned" member, actually just trying to start a fire, before getting nuked. Lots of people on the outside see ERA as a progressive and extreme leftist site and want it gone because of that. I would even daresay they've probably tried adding fuel to the fire already.
We are sitting comfortably in the peanut gallery, no need to get on stage. 8)

Resetreset isn't coming from this, Cerium retire bitch isn't coming from this. Nobody actually has real grievances, they wanted an internet fight, and with Ket unbanned they "won", and all other details and remaining points of outrage are safely stored to be reheated the next time someone wants to strongarm the mods.
They'd rather continue the anti-mod coup than go through the actual work of taking down reset, as they've seen they can just get what they want. And cerium is seemingly...okay with this? :lol

So they are asking ketkat be unbanned for doing things which would get anyone else banned as well just because ketkat is a “valuable” member of the hive mind ?
A mod got demodded because he did not fall in line with the hive mind thought process
Amazing thing is that this whole scenario only proves to everyone inside era who has some sense and outside era who aren’t bigots that era is a literal hive mind.
That people expect some users to get privelige status membership no matter what they do but they dogpile on anyone who has a non bigoted opinion which does not fall in line with the majority view.
It proves that era will reward bad behavior from folks who are lock step and barrel with the hive and will dogpile anyone who has a non bigoted opinion which folks just don’t like. It’s sending the message that the user base rewards a certain thought process if they abuse the TOS

There's nothing wrong with it, especially from their point of view on representation, the problem is two fold. One they are demanding an affirmative action course correction in which 40+% of the staff must be TA rather than represent their actual percentage of the population which would be closer to a single admin and a couple mods. Second, they're stupid.

Hey there everyone, I’m here right now and I have a lot of things that I want to say about this whole situation. First of all, I want to thank all of you who sent me kind messages both within these threads and on discord as I really appreciate them! There are so many times where I look at the state of the society that we live in and question the impact that one person can have against the tide of bigotry and mental health stigma that exists, and comments like yours do a lot to alleviate those concerns!
As for the big accusation, there’s a lot to say about this. First and foremost, I want to make it clear that I did not invade Robin (my girlfriend’s) privacy to look through her private discords, messages, or anything else. I am not interested in being the kind of person that can not be trusted in the most basic ways, and it was shocking for me to see staff assume that I would do that so quickly. When I made that initial post talking about moderation and the issues that exist within it, I posted some information that was from a private staff discord. I knew it was from there, and I chose to post it publicly instead of going to them in private or attempting to find a real solution to it. I regret posting it in that manner as I never had any intention of starting any large scale drama about this incident, and I chose to keep the names private for the safety of the moderation team. However, I now see that I didn’t put as much consideration into that as I should have to begin with. There are quite a few places that exist off-site purely to document and harass notable people on this forum, and that includes people on the moderation team as they tend to stand out more. I have dealt with harassment from these people as being a minority or part of a vulnerable group seems to make you a target for them, and this is doubly true for minority staff members. I was hurt and disappointed that people that I consider close friends believed that I was capable of this, but they’re not bad people for thinking this. They’re just scared. And I don’t fault them for that.
The reasons that they provided in that initial thread detailed a history of suspicions that I was looking into their discord as well as that I knew some moderation terminology that was used behind the scenes. In the email that I sent, I referenced a very specific thing that is used however this specific term is one that is an open secret of sorts and I’ve seen it used in quite a few places. Throughout this investigation that occurred, I was never once contacted or informed what any of these suspicions were actually about, so as of this moment, I am still unaware of what they are and unable to comment on them. It’s hard to hear that there’s evidence against you that you aren’t allowed to see, but again keep in mind that at this point they’re still concerned for their privacy and unsure if they can trust me. I don’t blame them for wanting to avoid more of that, especially as they went looking for that conversation and did not feel the same way about it. I was assured by someone on the team who I deeply trust and is LGBT that the claim that this statement and the person who made them were against asexuals was incorrect and a misunderstanding.
And I do want to reiterate here at the end, I left out the names on both of those issues in my post for a reason. I understand the desire for wanting to know who said what in these conversations, but the way that this desire has manifested is worrying. There are mistakes that have been made by the moderation team throughout this whole ordeal as I know all too well. But at the same time, we can not realistically expect the people who moderate this website to feel safe when people are digging through their personal lives looking for anything that can be used.
I regret posting that line the way that I did and I’m sorry for all the headache that this has caused both you as users and the staff throughout this ordeal.
someone read this and give me spark notes

Not surprised that shosta would signal boost something like that. Once being part of a hateful bigoted moderation team.

that sounds serious, hopefully her week ban for SAYING WHAT KIND OF GAMES SHE WANTS straightens her out
TBF, she did take her preferences and generalize it, accurately or not, to her sex. Through the lens of RE, saying "women generally like this" or "women generally don't like that" looks like sexism.
Unless, of course, she'd said women don't like boob armor, which of course is truth, not sexism.

I agree with both of these and I want to say that I'd want edit history that anyone can see on a post. If it get edited we wanted to know how many times and if it's staff let us know, because you guys have hidden edits and it's sorta crazy ya'll haven't brought that up.
Just one last thing to add, be more human when you guys talk to us. Please it makes things a lot easier to say and more human. The way you guys talk like ERA leaves a really bad taste in our mouth.
If I get banned it's NOT a self requested ban.
I hope everyone starts putting this disclaimer at the end of all their posts.

I'm pretty sure this is an adaptation of what protesters are doing in Hong Kong right now, which is shouting their name when they get arrested and saying "I am not going to commit suicide" :lol :-\ :lol
After Tiananmen the authorities would go to the houses of kids they suspected of being involved, the parents would reluctantly hand over the kids, then the police would come back to the parents hours later and say that they'd "committed suicide in custody" or "fell down stairs and died".
Probably what happened to tank man tbh

I hope you can understand that these aren't questions that I can answer.
It wasn't necessary.
I want it to be clear that I always had permission to say whatever I want. From the very top.
But I asked to speak anyway, out of respect for the mod team, and the desire to not make the situation worse. I'm sorry that wasn't clearer.
Yes.
When you get involved in advocacy for minority groups, one of the first things you realize is that it is a continual work. Striving to be an ally (not to be called one, because you can't give yourself that label; but to work to be one), never finishes. There's no finish line. It is a constant work to check yourself, to reflect on your biases and see them for what they are, and to strive to be better.
I was advocating for Black queer people in that thread. I was triggered by the idea that our experiences were being compared and devalued. In doing that, I devalued ace people. I don't offer that as an excuse.

FWIW I never saw Royalan as acephobic when I was a mod which was partially why I wanted to let people know neither Kat or I were ever gunning for him.
I think that post is shitty but also two years old, and I always saw Royalan as a strong advocate for LGBT. If he says that post ain't him anymore, ok.
I don't know what to say other than that the situation sucks majorly.
I wonder what could have been done by, say, a single person, perhaps even one you might know, and by know I mean are, to not make the situation suck majorly.

Take this with a grain of salt, but...
There was one particular guy who caught my attention earlier in all this drama who was one of the few people to take the position that invading people's personal spaces is a shitty move and that KetKat deserved a ban for that. He argued this across 13 posts today. Some examples:
Without knowing Ketkat's full version of the story I don't know why people are claiming her ban was unfair. If the allegations are true, and I repeat, if they are true, they are reason enough to ban anyone.
From what we know, this private(s) Discord channel(s) were ones where personal information was shared between users of the site. I genuinely do not understand how, if this is true, is not considered an invasion of privacy. I cannot stretch enough how this would ban you out of literally any site.
Knowledge of this information is an issue here, though, we don't know if there are mods in that channel that did not know or share the views that were presented there, because none of us have the entire context. As someone who abandoned other servers in this site because of fear of doxxing and private information coming out, I find it upsetting how her alleged actions are being judged here.
Mods are also part of the community and their privacy should also be respected, especially if they had no saying in what the acephobic mods said. I genuinely do not know how we can create a comfortable community for anyone involved if these notions are not upheld.
Well, speaking of self-requested bans...

However. I can't find a post anywhere where he requested such a thing. So maybe he did it over PM. Or maybe...

I wouldn't say like, but he was a bit entertaining I guess. Probably had a few issues though so I don't want to be too much of a bully.

I think he is an asshole. But he is probably less rotten than most of the woke brigade on Resetera, but is not saying much.

Sane, but on a spectrum of sorts leading him to fail to understand why things are considered unacceptable or not. That, and the weird positions and stubborn insistence.

I tend to remove the cause from these posters, like when you combine trans rights and a poster like excel or ketkat you run a dangerous line to becoming a hateful prick towards good causes.
But at the same time, I hate the fact that if you call one of them a cunt for being one, they jump on the OMG you're such a transphobe, which isn't my point, the point is you as a person are a cunt.

"Some of them" does not equal "all of them".
And at no point did I say straight white people need "defending". I'm fully aware that I've had a comfortable, privileged life, and my position of general acceptance is my way of trying not to let it inform my worldvide.
I said the way people speak about straight, white people on Era is pure, unreasoning vitriol. And on that point, you're really not doing much to disabuse me of the notion.

I think Autismbot was attempting to make commentary on how an enraged group of mostly white folks pinned a "crime" on the one black guy who happened to be walking by and had him demodded and denutted for a 2 year old post that they had previously agreed with.
All while the real criminal, the presumably white mod who made the aphobic commentary, was left unscathed.
That behavior has some parallel with the lynching era.
Autismbot is a simple person, though, so they express themselves through images instead of words.

For the record I don't actually blame pork bork dork for banning me for posting that URL.. but I still honestly don't think it matters and nobody was going to get in trouble for clicking it, otherwise I wouldn't have posted it*.
* having said that, I generated the link manually and didn't click it myself, because, what am I, stupid?
Manually generated the link... sure ya did, probably copied it from one of the secret resetera pedo discords. You ain’t slick.

So much for Cerium’s ultimatum.
The pejoratives, nicknames, turns of phrase and other creative aggressions will no longer be tolerated. Attempts to provoke one another, to gatekeep, to deliberately keep the fighting going, will no longer be tolerated. Going back to your respective OTs to whine and complain about each other will no longer be tolerated.
It all stops now. Do not complain that you were not warned.

lmaoo ERA has a thread up about The Game Awards and how they feel “uncomfortable” with marketing affecting the “sanctity” of the awards. How Death Stranding being nominated is “problematic”
TGAs are off-year mini E3s breh, they don’t even give showtime to the people getting awards anymore.
People in that thread see all hours of ADs and announcements as a necessary evil for their favorite video game to get an award.
Like :neogaf
They also think PR man Geoff Keighley is a journalist. :brain Well, maybe not anymore after hosting so many nazis (like that... guy from Youtube or whatever) and considering that they understand 'journalist' as 'ally'. :idont

Additionally, I agree that a google search does not do justice. If I need to understand these marginalized communities better, I often sit back and listen, but sometimes I need something clarified and that sometimes includes moments where I'm not sure what to type into Google to have my specific question answered.
I totally understand the sentiment to not want to answer questions about yourself or the marginalized community you belong to because you're not obligated to answer those questions and the people asking the questions are not owed an answer.
I also understand as someone in a marginalized community myself that if more representation and acceptance of my marginalized community that a level of understanding from those not in that marginalized community is required and is 100% beneficial.
This is pretty great.

A Google search isn't an effective or efficient means of learning for everyone. Many people learn better from discussion and dialogue, which is why Q&A interaction has been a pillar of pedagogy for millennia.
This is not our problem to solve and ResetEra is not a university, it's a gaming forum. They can get the shit you're suggesting elsewhere. This forum and the people who make it are under no obligation to be all things educational to all people. Being a safe space for minorities is a lofty enough goal as it is. Your pushback here is evidence of that.
SO WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DIPSHITS TALKING ABOUT SAFE SPACES FOR MINORITIES IF ITS JUST A GAMING FORUM HOLY SHIT

The past few days have been exhausting for both sides of this. It's not going to happen immediately, like tomorrow or anything, while tensions are still running high.

We want this to happen, but we also want this to happen at a time when the discussion can be productive.

The oppression Olympics have been run and won.
The BCT took an early lead with a series of outrages about police brutality, but some Juicy Smollett-related stumbles enabled the LGBTQI+ community to catch up through sheer force of complaining about made up oppression in their own echochamber.
But in a mid-event revolt, the trans community executed a perfect backstab maneuver to spilt away from their former team and execute one of the protectors/mods of both the BCT and gay communities to vault itself off the back of the asexual community and into the lead where it is currently forcing the moderators to suck their female penii as they dictate terms about how the rest of the event is going to play now that they are writing the rules.
Meanwhile, the host broadcaster, Cerium LLC, is sitting back as the mods take a brutal beating on his behalf and counting the cash as the ad revenue rolls in.

ksweely mad af that he's being mocked
I made this thread in an attempt to educate people about the actual history surrounding Thanksgiving, this history is NOT the history that was taught to people in schools:
The true story behind Thanksgiving is a bloody struggle that decimated the population and ended with a head on a stick
• Most American schoolchildren grow up with the story of how the English pilgrims and Native Americans came together for the first Thanksgiving in Plymouth.
• In reality, peace didn't last between the English settlers and their one-time Wampanoag allies.
• The two became embroiled in a devastating war just a generation after the famous feast.

"there is nothing problematic this holiday"
...
can someone please explain to me, in about say, essay length level, why it's obvious to y'all that Black Pete is racist, but your own racist traditions are suddenly totally not racist when any asshole on the other side of the Atlantic (hi!) can see that it is?
Because people aren’t dressing up like pilgrims or native Americans and talking about how great the pilgrims treated the native Americans.

It's hilarious that he just randomly dropped the info that the Philadelphia police came up with the name "Black Friday".
The name "Black Friday" was created by the Philadelphia Police:“Black Friday” is the name which the Philadelphia Police Department has given to the Friday following Thanksgiving Day. It is not a term of endearment to them. “Black Friday” officially opens the Christmas shopping season in center city, and it usually brings massive traffic jams and over-crowded sidewalks as the downtown stores are mobbed from opening to closing.

Sane poster: If you want to demand long bans for not understanding niche minority topics there should be education.
The Kree: This is not our problem to solve and ResetEra is not a university, it's a gaming forum. (https://www.resetera.com/threads/resetera-moderation-staff-is-fucking-up-beyond-belief-on-lgbt-issues.153951/post-26654389)
Sane poster: So if it's just a gaming forum, why does it need to be a safe space? Couldn't you just make your own safe space forum?
The Kree: Missing the point entirely. But I'd love to see you argue that this shouldn't be a safe space for minorities because it's just a video game forum.

Yes. He violated his parole terms by failing to register where he was living with the sex offender registry.
I'm wondering if he was staying at his mom's and was concerned about her having a huge "WARNING: A FUCKING PEDOPHILE IS LIVING HERE" in her yard and that's why he didn't do it.

Please tell me Hobbes got banned for back seat modding
Or impersonating a police officer with out a badge or something.

The bullets we dodged with that one.

He was released after a couple years, went onto the street, then didn't check in (Non-Compliant Transient, hence riotous' title) so now he's back.

I mean my reasoning was more wholesome (protecting his mom from social outcasting) but yours is probably more valid. She didn't want to give him a house and so he was living in a PedoBear Van down by the river (wait is there a river in PA? ...ANYWAY...) and that ain't a legal address.

That’s not correct, he beat up his mom because she wouldn’t let him watch an episode of South Park that he had already seen and he bought drugs using the money gaffers donated to him for his mom’s medical bills.

6 months on the street probably put 40 years on Amir0x. I’d probably feel bad for him if I saw a pic... if he didn’t rape children.

The past few days have been exhausting for both sides of this. It's not going to happen immediately, like tomorrow or anything, while tensions are still running high. We need time to determine what all needs to be addressed, what other topics of discussion are relevant, and options for moving forward.
We want this to happen, but we also want this to happen at a time when the discussion can be productive.
:trigger :trigger :trigger :trigger :trigger :trigger

What does 'fucking up beyond belief on trans issues' mean exactly? Because the idea that you could say anything even remotely controversial is a complete joke. And even a perfectly reasonable question to ask is risky.
I mean, I recognise that there is such a thing as gender dysphoria and some people who suffer from gender dysphoria choose to transition. And I am quite happy to call them she if they want to be called she. However, I have little time for a lot of non-binary bullshit. Go ahead and pretend to be whatever you want, but I am not entertaining your stupid pronouns. I am also not going to call myself 'cis'.
Now that opinion would get me banned straight away, and personally I don't think it is that uncommon or that unreasonable. So then what exactly has the moderation team let slide? lol

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
In addition to the staff message posted by Hecht yesterday, I wanted to apologize again for the hurt that recent events have caused our trans community. I know that explanations and excuses always matter less than actions, so I'd like to start by making it clear that we have renewed determination to promote diversity on the staff and restore confidence in the team.
As of today we have appointed two new women Administrators and Mod Captains, Pirate Bae and Sophia -- both are LGBT and the latter is trans. These are amazing individuals who have been on track for promotion for a while, and their voices will now be stronger than ever. We have already committed to direct dialogue with the trans community and are looking forward to those conversations. We will also conduct a review of our policies and procedures to see in which areas they might be falling short and how they can better serve the community.
It's not an end but a beginning, and as always we are working every day to try to build a better site.
Thank you.
-
Yeah. I'm hoping there is a serious offer so we can settle this once and for all.

I don’t give a shit about the dumpster fire known as ResetEra but holy shit at Amir0x getting sent to the pokey again.
We should dredge up that thread where he scammed gaffers out of money that he said was going to help his mom but turns out he spent it on drugs instead. Then as remorse he spent one day in rehab. Would be interesting to know how they feel about giving money to a pedophile that may have went towards facilitating crimes against children. That dipshit fucktard Timedog was bragging about donating money to him, I wonder what he’s up to these days?

One minute you think you’re on the fast track for a promotion down at the Resetera mines, the next minute you’re banned for almost a week for trolling. Life truly does come at you fast.

These people have cut ties with their families and friends and have no one to celebrate the holidays with and want everyone else to be as miserable as they are. Cue the ERA threads about being depressed and not knowing how they got into the situation they are in.

There's a user that's been banned at least 3 times for toxicity, once for harassing someone via PM so his toxicity would be hidden. He gets banned almost every few months and at most it's for a few days
Asked a mod why he hasn't faced a more serious suspension and was basically told it's because he loses his temper from time to time and contributes to the community a lot.

Would be interesting to know how they feel about giving money to a pedophile that may have went towards facilitating crimes against children.
I donated. Wasn't much, $20-$30 I think. I did it because even though I really didn't like Amirox as a poster (and I think we'd had a few run-ins at that point), I felt bad for his mum and figured he'd have to be legit with the cash because she knew about the appeal.
I know it sounds like bullshit but I don't really care that he fucked up and spent the money on drugs. You donate money to causes in the full knowledge that once it's left your wallet, you no longer have any say on how it's spent. People abusing good gestures shouldn't ever dissuade you from making good gestures.
Also, I'd have gladly paid $30 to read about him getting soaked in piss, so I came out even in the end.

I'd say you came out ahead in that exchange.

My wife and I just found out we will he having our fourth child and we are having difficulties thinking of names.
Before you tell me this is the wrong forum, let me tell you three boys names.
Our oldest (11) was given the same name as my Final Fantasy XI character - Latch.
Our middle child ( 8) is Locke (middle name Cole).
The youngest (3) is Link.
We never meant it to become a theme, but we have three boys, all of which start with L, are one syllable, video came character names, and strangely parts of a door.
I don't think there is any possible names that would fit all those requirements to keep the pattern, so many just as close as possible.
My wife suggested the name Lara for a girl. That could work, I guess.
When we found out the news, we were on a resort vacation in the Dominican Republic and each night were playing a bit of Luigi's Mansion on Switch. Long story short, my wife did not like my suggestion for a boy name.

Random idea:
For the major communities of ResetEra, members with semi-regular participation and some duration of 'citizenship' of said community (6 months+ to avoid an influx of saboteurs) should elect representatives to enter into the discussions with the ResetEra staff. This way representatives are not picked by the staff themselves which could lead to accusations of picking cronies or less oppositional members.
Then staff and the representatives have an open discussion on the important topics, where all of ResetEra can view (but not participate). Closed doors sessions would likely be necessary to avoid everyone needing to "perform" and to have more candid conversations, but at the end of these conversations, agreed upon summaries would be released with the endorsement of all who participated.
Clearly a lot of work, and not infallible, but clearly more representative and of redress than the current system.

Queer - You get a mod.
Questioning - Question this, no mod for you
Intersex - You get a mod.
Asexual - You get a mod but they can't interact with anyone.

Yeah, I know, but I was on the way to work and couldn't formulate a better gag quickly. That really is it.
spoiler (click to show/hide)
Besides, when I frame asexuals as 'someone that doesn't fancy sex very often' then I simply can't see them as a marginalised identity in any sense of the word. I'd prefer to pretend they're resolutely against all sexual contact so I can at least pretend to understand why they feel 'unsafe'.
I am aware that you have a horse in this race, but as I'm agender, I'm pretty sure I outrank you on the totem and as such you can't be offended by my ignorance.

I don’t even understand this. As people keep demanding equal representation for smaller and smaller subgroups, we’re eventually going to get to that point of one person decrying lack of representation of themselves because they are the only member of that group.
I mean fucks’ sake, how many asexual members on that board? In the general populace, it’s an estimated one percent? On that board, even with a higher concentration, can they even reach 5%? But they need a dedicated mod who is also asexual?

Yeah, I know, but I was on the way to work and couldn't formulate a better gag quickly. That really is it.
spoiler (click to show/hide)
Besides, when I frame asexuals as 'someone that doesn't fancy sex very often' then I simply can't see them as a marginalised identity in any sense of the word. I'd prefer to pretend they're resolutely against all sexual contact so I can at least pretend to understand why they feel 'unsafe'.
I am aware that you have a horse in this race, but as I'm agender, I'm pretty sure I outrank you on the totem and as such you can't be offended by my ignorance.
One more step ahead of resetera on the road to peace and tolerance.
Edit: also I have no horses in any of those races. Pretty sure i'm just a normal dude, although you have to admit, it's real hard to tell these days.

! User banned (2 weeks): concern trolling
Japanese games take a lot of inspiration from other cultures, from myths, to history and clothing and armour design.
The problem is most of their characters look Asian, which wouldn't be a big deal to me personally, but they fail to represent the actual people they're taking these influences from.
For example Final Fantasy is steeped in Western mythos, the characters even have Western names, yet the majority of the characters are Asian and look like J-pop stars. Take Tifa for example, her name isn't Japanese, and she's from a town called Niflheim, yet is clearly Asian. Same with Cloud, and even Barret has a certain look to his face and lighter skin in the new remake.
Aerith was stated to be made more Western but still looks Eastern in the face. And in FFXII they stated they were told to make Ashe distinctly not Japanese but still did in the end to appease the Japanese audience. However with her I'm not expecting her to look White, but Indian. The team took a trip there for cultural influence yet there seems to be no representation of their people.
It extends to a lot of their games. I know a vast majority have anime artsyles, but even then, despite their brightly coloured hair, anime character have more Asian facial features with sharper eyes and smaller noses and chins. I just find it disingenuous when games like Fire Emblem have all these European inspired aesthetics and names yet everybody again looks like a pretty j-pop star. It's ok for characters to have bigger noses and differenr facial structures, Japan, as in the end most of the world and people your taking from do.
I know Japan is xenophobic, but when looking through Bulbapedia at the new Pokemon, and seeing that NPCs on the routes you battle in the original Japanese version ALL have Japanese names despite the country being based on England I just laugh at their need to self insert into everything.
Obivously this goes beyond games too. Stuff like the manga Magi with its Arabic influence yet features very little people with dark skin gets to me too. I just wanted to know if there's a reason for this and what your guys thoughts are?
Obviously I'm not against Asian characters, in fact we need more of them from Western developed games, I just don't like the lack of representation of the people they take influences from. If the West developed a game, based on Japanese culture, myth, and geography yet all the characters, despite having Japanese names, were distinctly western there'd be massive uproar.

There is not some epidemic of people getting banned for "an opposing idea"

Some of you are so woke I'm not sure how you make it through the day without offing yourself. It's great to think of others, especially groups that have been shit on historically. So do something for Native Americans that day or volunteer at a food bank or something, but trying to make everybody miserable on a day they want to spend with their family and being thankful for the things they have is a misstep. It's more about impressing others with just how woke you are instead of making a meaningful contribution. People are trying to get through this life with a little joy. They can visit with family, over eat and watch some football without having to feel guilty about it.

Thanksgiving, even more so than Christmas, has absolutely nothing to do with its origin at this point. It's one of the few times a year everyone in the family is able to get together and enjoy each others company, eat until your stuffed, and be thankful for what you have. Nothing is going to change that and trying to make people feel shitty about it is ridiculous and futile. By all means, fight for another day of remembrance for Native Americans and the atrocities that have been heaped upon them, but the fourth Thursday in November ain't it.

Imagine being progressive, an ally if you will, and choosing to spend your time volunteering for a video game message board instead of something worthwhile to the cause. Then imagine hating every moment you have to heard the cats. You are as draconian as you possibly could be, then about 25 users spend the better part of a week disrupting the entire site, saying you are doing them a disservice by not being draconian enough.
Tip: If you want to volunteer your time to help the cause join Big Brothers Big Sisters, get off that silly board and do something that makes you feel good and change someone’s life. Stop babysitting a bunch of 35 year old children.
Pro Tip: if you need 84 months to pay off a $15,000 car at 7% you shouldn’t be spending all of your time on a message board anyway. You should be asking your manager for some extra shifts at Popeye’s.

No, that's exactly what he's saying, that being a minority shields you from your actions and that criticizing them for being a bigot is in some way bigoted itself.
Royalan stepping down was the right choice, his comment was stupid and hurtful, it was only two years ago, nobody is entitled to being a moderator on an internet forum and he's still around to show us he's learned from his mistakes if he has. We're not re-litigating this in here so go whine about cancel culture somewhere else.

Hollywood only demands accuracy when it comes to historical stories about white people; but continues to cast white actors in various ethnicity (or using vaguely ethnic looking people for any non-white character.)
I don't think any of it should be a big deal; but it shouldn't be a big deal to have a woman or a non-white man play an executive in a movie about the 1960s either. Yet the same people defending Emma Stone playing a Hawaiian would probably be in an uproar if you had a black woman executive in Ford vs. Ferrari.
What if you have a galaxy brain and you think both are stupid? Stop erasing non binaries! :brain

Love this Ford vs Ferrari review.
Picture this: During all 152 minutes of the film–which, for those who love vintage racing cars, will feel as good as an ice cream sundae on a summer afternoon, and you can read all about that here–men dominate the screen for 98% of the time, by my unofficial count. They are in the executive suites at Ford and Ferrari, in the workshops and garages in Venice, on the track out at Willow Springs Raceway. (And when I say men, I mean white, straight men.)
What the movie really lacked was a side story about Marge and Lisa buying a doorbell

Don't get me wrong, I'd react to seeing a black executive on screen in a movie like Ford vs Ferrari, but what if after some time of that being "normal" my brain stopped reacting to that? And if the general public had that normalized, maybe we'd END RACISM?
Don't you want to end racism?
I think some people actually believe that this is an end that should be pursued, but in my mind casting a bunch of white dudes and making no mention of the structural racism that make the casting accurate (because it's not what the movie is about) is less offensive than casting a minority in a historically implausible role and making no mention of it. (because it's not what the movie is about) It's a weird area where it makes you feel good because a role was given to a minority actor and that's objectively good, but it's doing so by implicitly white washing historical realities that would make it implausible.

Obviously I'm not against Asian characters, in fact we need more of them from Western developed games, I just don't like the lack of representation of the people they take influences from. If the West developed a game, based on Japanese culture, myth, and geography yet all the characters, despite having Japanese names, were distinctly western there'd be massive uproar.

A lot of these people literally celebrate isolating themselves from their family and friends and encourage others to do so. There's been multiple threads with them bragging about how they cut their family from their lives for often petty political disagreements. The holiday season must be especially aggravating and depressing for them. They are miserable people that want to spread the misery around to others under the guise of "fighting colonialism."

Eraisms
- we want to see women naked but how dare you talk about women being naked
- we want you to appreciate women’s beauty but you are sexist if you go out of the way to call a woman beautiful
- we want you to stop punching down in comedies , we don’t care what minorities think of those comedies
- Conservatives are the worst of Americans due to their hate, I respond to racism by slamming a woman head first onto the pavement
- we need politics to move further left.. why is America so dumb they voted for Trump over Warren
- Lol follow the rules and TOS, but unban ketkat please
- people never learn , their old views are more relevant then new ones
- thinking of gay marriage as not real marriage is homophobic, there will be no discussion allowed as to why black community dislike gay marriage
Add your observations
-
Trans people are among society's most vulnerable, as this thread highlights. I hope - at least in America - we can work together during the next administration to ensure a federal government who can help protect them.
I mean, I don't want to be a dick, but it highlights the exact fucking opposite.
Do the math.
estimated number of homicides in the Us in 2018: 16,214
number of trans listed as murdered in the US in 2018: 31
as a percentage: 0.19%
2016 estimate of trans population of the US: 0.6%
so below even just statistical average of population makeup

They don't contain "woke", the worst dogwhistle since "both sides" :shaking
While true, those two posters also didn't minimise ree's contribution by suggesting that they should step outside and actually do something instead of forming dogpiles on a forum.
i choose to believe that this is what actually sent them into a report-frenzy. :lol
How miserable do you have to be to try and hashtag-CANCEL a day usually spent with family and feasting that's so far removed from any colonial origins at this point?
I just don't get threads like this. If you don't like Thanksgiving and/or your family (for whatever reason, it doesn't have to be a "woke" one) just don't go. I'm pretty sure most of the negative people posting in thread wouldn't be missed anyway. "Gee it's too bad incelsiorleaf couldn't make it this year, I made a whole tofurkey too!" Mostly they are just the weird/awkward relatives who sit in the corner of the room staring at their phones and barely eating/drinking anything anyway.

Trans people are among society's most vulnerable, as this thread highlights. I hope - at least in America - we can work together during the next administration to ensure a federal government who can help protect them.
I mean, I don't want to be a dick, but it highlights the exact fucking opposite.
Do the math.
estimated number of homicides in the Us in 2018: 16,214
number of trans listed as murdered in the US in 2018: 31
as a percentage: 0.19%
2016 estimate of trans population of the US: 0.6%
so below even just statistical average of population makeup
Skimming the list

Why would you go to Burger King anyway if you're a vegan. Literally the whole restaurant is based on something you can't eat.
And seeing that their "alternative" method of cooking the patty is putting it in the microwave.
:kobeyuck
And of course messofanego has to make it about him!
Yikes, then it might not be halal either. I tried one when I was in USA a couple of months ago.
Again, why the FUCK are you going to Burger King if you need halal meat?
:hhh

I can believe the part about him getting teased/bullied by the popular girls, but the part where teachers and the principal go "whaddya, gay?" because it was back in the homophobic early 2000s is just fucking ridiculous. Like just say you were bullied in school (like most people were) and leave it at that, you don't have to try and make yourself a martyr.

But nearly all vegan food is based on Soy beans but now she doesn't want food based on soy beans anymore.
So I asked her the question you shouldn't ask a vegan. "What were you eating before? Because honestly none of the things you are eating now existed 5 let alone 10 years ago."
I think the vegan only diets have started to effect their brains as much as the climate doomsday cult has.

They probably can't broil it because it'd disintegrate or worse. A roommate's friend used to eat vegan "chicken" fingers that had to be microwaved, if you heated them in a regular oven they fell apart into like a powder. I think they were taken off the market a couple years later probably were cancer causing or something.

They are in the executive suites at Ford and Ferrari, in the workshops and garages in Venice, on the track out at Willow Springs Raceway. (And when I say men, I mean white, straight men.)

But when we heard some dude got upset about his burger being made on the same broiler.. lol what a puss. Being vegan is not a religion or an allergy you nunce.
It's less "religion" and more "not wanting meat to touch your 'patty'" which is valid. If I cooked in a meat-free environment and went to an establishment that offered a meat-free option, I'd assume they had a counter-top for their meat-free options to not be "cross-contaminated."
The lawsuit is frivolous, but it has merit.
-
expecting every burger king to change their line to avoid possible meat contamination is dumb. ask before you order if you care that much imo. or maybe get the fuck over yourself as another option.
not to mention bk has been selling veggie burgers for like 15 years or more at this point and it was never an issue lol

I don't disagree, and that's why a lot of Vegans don't go to these national chains: Because they know expecting this level is a little crazy. But again: I can see where the dude is coming from and it has "merit" in being heard. I wouldn't necessarily put it up on the level of ADA expectations, but if you offer a Vegan option, some folks are going to assume you have a "fully Vegan" (or at least a "cross-contamination free" area, in better words) area to cater to their interests.

I am not saying I agree with the statement. Unlike literally everyone else in this thread, I don't have an opinion either way.
What I'm saying there is a fucking world of difference between feeling that asexuals don't get the same level of violence directed at them (again, whether that's true or not), and being a fucking bigot that needs to be removed from the Era mod team ASAP. That word, and our rage, is infinitely better directed at people that actually harbor ill will towards minorities, of which there is no shortage. But apparently a gay black mod whose sin was (potentially) being wrong two years ago and apologizing for it is a more appropriate target for rage and harassment than actual homophobes and transphobes, and cause of celebration when they step down.
Lose me with all of this shit. This is not a board of empathy and forgiveness; this is a board of petty revenge.

If I cooked in a meat-free environment and went to an establishment that offered a meat-free option, I'd assume they had a counter-top for their meat-free options to not be "cross-contaminated."
The lawsuit is frivolous, but it has merit.
So you stan for BK but have no fucking idea how their cooking environment works?
Countertop? Are you fucking serious?
IT'S A GODDAMN CONVEYOR BELT.

And? Because there is literally no one going "THEY NEVER HAD WAR BEFORE", which makes you bringing that argument to the table sound incredibly suspect in a thread about the history of Native American genocide.
This is not the first time you displayed your myopic ability to jump to conclusions and run with conjecture.
Both these posts are objectively true. Glad they were actioned to ensure forum members' safety.

Some of you are so woke I'm not sure how you make it through the day without offing yourself. It's great to think of others, especially groups that have been shit on historically. So do something for Native Americans that day or volunteer at a food bank or something, but trying to make everybody miserable on a day they want to spend with their family and being thankful for the things they have is a misstep. It's more about impressing others with just how woke you are instead of making a meaningful contribution. People are trying to get through this life with a little joy. They can visit with family, over eat and watch some football without having to feel guilty about it.

My wife purposefully uses the pans she cooks my meat in for her veggie stuff to impart flavor since if she didn’t that stuff would just get thrown down the drain and wasted. She also saves all of the bones from the meat she cooks me and makes broths out of it and doesn’t have a problem consuming it because there’s more than enough broth to feed me and it would go to waste.

I doubt many foods are halal in trumps America.
Also the fuck? You’re getting a vegan burger and expecting all other meats to cater to your religious beliefs?
HUUUUUUUH?
Vegan people are starting to get weird.
I have this co-worker who flipped out at me the other day. She only wants vegan food. I can understand that.
But nearly all vegan food is based on Soy beans but now she doesn't want food based on soy beans anymore.
So I asked her the question you shouldn't ask a vegan. "What were you eating before? Because honestly none of the things you are eating now existed 5 let alone 10 years ago."
I think the vegan only diets have started to effect their brains as much as the climate doomsday cult has.
Why r u being so dumb again.
Ofc she doesnt want want soy beans cause they are often the source of deforestation.
Yes people can want things that didnt exist before like medicine and electricity and now ethical food.
Youre always so obtuse jesus.
It's more the fact that she acts like she's going to starve to death if the <insert_veggie_trend_of_the_week> is not available to her.
I'm more wondering how she survived up to this year when Sencha soup wasn't around in 2017.
And deforestation is not the issue. She doesn't eat products with soy beans in them because they are bad for her skin? ???
She was also thinking of removing 'salt' from her diet for some reason I forgot. And then she complaints she doesn't know what to eat anymore.

How did Nathan know that guys elevated heart rate wasn't because he had thought of Aquaman?
Might have been due to Wolff Parkinson White Syndrome. He had a supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Although being kind of specific here, there a number reasons you may actually suffer an SVT. It can be caused from too much cocaine for instance (lol).
I had Wolff Parkinson White Syndrome, which is why I actually mentioned it. Also why I know so much about certain conditions. I don't have it any more though because I had an ablation procedure which fixed it. Out of interest though, I had an SVT which needed hospital intervention. My heart was beating at over 270 beats per minute. lol

Also the older she is, the closer in the family tree she is to actual slave owners or at least closer to ancestors who lived through a time when people owned slaves. That makes her more guilty. She has to pay more for her whiteness.

No, they don't. I'm sexually attracted to any gender (if I'm close to them, being demi), but romantically attracted to only women. Sexuality and romantic/emotional attraction are not the same. I am a pansexual lesbian.

No, they were bullied for being trans, a woman, pansexual, a lesbian, and demisexual. The fact that they only discovered they were some of these things in 2019 does not mean they were not always those things, they just didn't know. But the bullies did. Stop JAQing, you're not slick.

You can't ask questions. Ever. It's all in bad faith! Always! Straight people are out to attack us, the holy alphabet folx.
One problem that does need to be addressed that isn't strictly administration's fault is that, as per Ketkat's post, mods are quite influenced by the fact that there's communities dedicated to harassing Era and trying to tear us down. Honestly, this affects us all-- given what I've seen over the past few days, I'm skeptical that Era's trans members didn't have the same kind of spotlight pointed on them the whole time. And if they didn't before, thanks to this debacle, they certainly do now. Given my observations about certain posters in the past, mods being lax about transphobic posters has knock-on effects for all of ERA, because the CHUDs in question have all the impulse control of toddlers. People are wise enough to brand new accounts with all of four posts chiming in on sensitive topics, so even those individuals have an impetus to participate in the community, if only to build up enough cover to cause trouble. And wouldn't you know it, it just so happens that threads about trans people happen to always be full of people showing their asses 24/7. I'm going to suggest there's a correlation there. I'm going to suggest the alt-right dickheads that like to go after ERA like going after marginalized and vulnerable people most of all, and that protecting our most marginalized and vulnerable voices readily translates to making all of us safer. That includes the mods. That's more true now, after this, than it ever has been.

Plus, it's not at all random, it's completely on topic (why thanksgiving is awful) and absolutely relevant to the sole reason why we shouldn't cancel the genocide celebration (it's an opportunity to call out bigots in the family) which would be an incident that needs managing and who better to turn to than the man who managed the incident that was the war that thanksgiving is based on?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/we-need-to-have-a-discussion-about-how-members-treat-other-members-on-this-site-and-among-other-issues.154572/
So I'd been mulling about bringing up this subject because I am absolutely not the person to really be able to express myself easily, but I think we really need to have a center focused discussion about this.
We most recently just had an issue that occurred in the Trans Awareness Week and the LGBT Issues Moderation threads, which covered aspects of the issue that I'm going to be discussing in this thread, because I feel it's incredibly important. And I absolutely think there are more significant problems on this board that need to be addressed further that both relate to those issues, as well as outside of them as well.
Before I start, I need to explain something:
I am an individual who has a number of disabilities that relate to a combination of mental health, as well as mental developmental problems. Some of these include:
- Inability to quickly process thoughts and understanding said information and communication given to me.
- Inability to properly articulate what I want to say both in a text and vocal conversation. The latter is significantly worse than the former, but I absolutely do struggle to be able to communicate easily. As a result, I cannot easily and properly explain things as a result, especially in instances of heavy and emotional distress.
- I do not understand and cannot properly process spacial relation issues, which creates problems when I'm given directions on how to get to a place or what I do (I often end up going left instead of right, for instance). It also affected my ability to properly delve into aspect of Geometry, which I at the time, didn't understand why these particular things were giving me issues.
- Emotionally, I'm underdeveloped from the rest of my peers and as a result, it does make things more difficult for me to handle.
- I have anxiety, panic attack disorders, constant heart palpitations, and I both shut down and break down easily under stress. Because of this, I am disabled, on disability, and attempts to try to put me in the work force have not been successful. I am 30 years old, have practically no college experience, and never worked properly either.
- For many of my issues, I am attending and seeing multiple people at a local mental health clinic, but it's a life long issue for me and I do not see myself improving. It's more just trying to cope with what I do have at this point and trying to deal with it the best I can.
And there's more issues I can get into.
As to why this relates to what I'm about to discuss, awhile back after I had a bad experience on Grindr, I opened a thread to vent. The result? Immediately an automatic assumptions, misunderstanding what I was saying, and it got to the point that I do not believe that the topic warranted further discussion. The topic can be read here.
What happened is I did not properly explain what happened, I was under distress, and I was not able to communicate properly. What ultimately happened was during the beginning of the conversation, I apologized to the user I had not updated my profile image in a bit, I sent him what I had at the start of the conversation, we communicated and made sure everything was okay from the get go, and somehow the user not long after that made some of those comments. Ultimately, it's no big deal in the end and I just learn from it and move on.
The topic was another matter. I was called out for "Cat fishing", and it resulted in a user bumping the thread in another topic which suggested it heavily implied to be me given the wording. To add onto this, there were comments intentionally fat shaming me, and among other issues in the said thread.
Another thread that I had opened up, regarding a trending topic on Twitter and I asked users how their High School experience was, a individual posted the following text:
From the sounds of it maybe a school that could better deal w/ your behavioral issues might have done the trick, doesn’t seem like that school was working out for you.
I literally responded to the user to clarify, but they ignored my post and I can only imagine from that they were automatically assuming the worst about me and making said comment.
In another thread, after I brought up my experience on Tinder as a whole (which was a mixture, positive and negative, I think we all had that), individuals proceeded to try and "Call me out", including saying the reason they stopped talking to me was because I got caught "cat fishing", and then when I tried to explain my situation how I struggle to communicate, individual proceeded to say that I should google communication guides and stuff like that and practice and it didn't seem to matter at that point what I had to say.
For reference: Once I became aware of my communication issues, I had to learn how to communicate (took me over a year and I was still practicing since about 2003 or so), but I feel that as if I've hit a brick wall on this and I think I'm at my limit. Even my doctor told me not to over think it as this point and it's okay if I can't easily say what I have to.
These are issues that I personally experience and I feel are minor probably compared to some users, but I feel this is still worth mentioning. This is not okay and it makes me, a person with a number of issues as is, uncomfortable here.
However, we have had issues with some other topics, which I had minimal participation in, such as some of the Gym topics, in how they can be incredibly toxic in nature, and honestly: overly condescending.
Most recent topic comes to mind is this one, both in the OPs title, text, and the poll options. I often people see them post this in threads and it really bugs me as a user that I at first thought was a joke, but this topic seems to serve otherwise, including the responses feel kinda unwelcoming. There was also a topic I participated that also felt incredibly toxic and judgmental, and as a person who struggles to deal with self-esteem issues on top of what I detailed, this only made me feel worse seeing comments like this. Users did call some of this out, but doesn't feel it made an impact.
Now, this isn't intended to be a call out to individual users (and I realize it's hard not to discuss this without bringing up specific topics or posts, so I apologize for this), because I don't think it's specifically one or two people, but the fact many users are not being held accountable by some of the behavior replicated.
I do believe my personal issues, arguably are probably minor, but as someone who has to deal with miscommunications on a day-to-day basis, difficulty explaining myself, and then I feel people automatically assuming the worst, only makes these topics more difficult to post in these.
I've heard from users how uncomfortable they feel posting in Dating, Gym/Fitness threads, and among other ones, as well as some of the comments I've seen with people dealing with mental health issues and disabilities, is frustrating.
Not to mention, we've had threads asking for simple accessibility options, threads about possible issues with strobing/flashing that could cause seizures, many of these are ignored and buried quickly, or the topics become incredibly toxic that there is no conversation to be had.
We really need to talk about all these issues. I'm trying my best on this forum, and I realize a lot of times, I mess up, I try to explain myself better, and now I feel as if I ever want to post in a dating or relationship related thread, users will be quick to point out the thread above, without adding context, or I'll also be handwaved about my communication issues.
I should NOT feel this way about a forum that prides itself is making users feel safe. And I'm sure more users feel this way.
So really, we need to talk about this. How can we change this? How can this be addressed? How can the Admin/Mods make this safer? Because as it stands, I just simply do not feel safe on this forum in a majority of topics. I try and I keep posting, but I always feel I'm this close to somehow making a mistake and it just following me wherever I post.
This needs to be addressed.

The problem is I have on a couple occasions attempt to report some users and it took the cat calling bump thread I mentioned above, for a user to get banned. I don't feel the report system is reliable and I feel bad saying this, but it's absolutely true. I don't think the systems in place are enough to keep me and other users safe.

Like the one we're having only with 200% more Bullshit and 500% more unwinnable
Is it televised?
if trump gets kicked out of office does pence too?
I think United States needs a Constitutional amendment to clearly define how to impeach a President, and to make the process very clear and fair for all parties. Also, the impeachment process should always be a criminal process, not a political one.
I hope, if I ever get in any trouble with the law, I too get to have a meeting with my jury to decide whether I want to have a trial or just dismiss the whole thing straight away.
:derp :derp :derp :derp
It is very clear. The issue is it doesn't happen often. This is like the 4th time: Jackson, Nixon, Clinton, Trump.

First off, I wanted to say that I am sorry for the experiences you've been through, both on the site and in real life, that have caused you such pain. Also, I wanted to thank you for making this thread; it is incredibly well thought out and you make many good points.
Now, to address your concerns. Over the past couple of days, the entire staff have discussed at length the best ways to make the site feel more inclusive and welcoming to everyone, no matter your mental or physical health, your sexuality, your gender identity, upbringing, race, whatever. A lot of these problems cannot be solved overnight and will take time to completely rectify. However, the things that we are looking at doing in the immediate future are going to allow the site to foster of community of warmth.
One of the biggest things we are looking into implementing is a community relations program with a designated liaison. We hope to bridge the invisible gap between site staff and the general user base and be more active in the issues our members are facing. We want people to feel comfortable coming to us with concerns or questions they may have.
We are actively looking into a more diverse staff, both in terms or race, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious preference, etc. so that all members feel represented and acknowledged.
I know that this does not provide solutions to everything that you brought up, but we are working on many, many more things that we hope will change the culture of the site going forward. The general unease that many members face about posting in threads is something that we are aware of, and we are actively working on a plan that will address this and change the way people interact with each other here.
If you have any other questions that you would like to talk about in private (if that is more comfortable for you), my PM box is open. :)

So I'd been mulling about bringing up this subject because I am absolutely not the person to really be able to express myself easily, but I think we really need to have a center focused discussion about this.
We most recently just had an issue that occurred in the Trans Awareness Week and the LGBT Issues Moderation threads, which covered aspects of the issue that I'm going to be discussing in this thread, because I feel it's incredibly important. And I absolutely think there are more significant problems on this board that need to be addressed further that both relate to those issues, as well as outside of them as well.
Before I start, I need to explain something:
I am an individual who has a number of disabilities that relate to a combination of mental health, as well as mental developmental problems. Some of these include:
- Inability to quickly process thoughts and understanding said information and communication given to me.
- Inability to properly articulate what I want to say both in a text and vocal conversation. The latter is significantly worse than the former, but I absolutely do struggle to be able to communicate easily. As a result, I cannot easily and properly explain things as a result, especially in instances of heavy and emotional distress.
- I do not understand and cannot properly process spacial relation issues, which creates problems when I'm given directions on how to get to a place or what I do (I often end up going left instead of right, for instance). It also affected my ability to properly delve into aspect of Geometry, which I at the time, didn't understand why these particular things were giving me issues.
- Emotionally, I'm underdeveloped from the rest of my peers and as a result, it does make things more difficult for me to handle.
- I have anxiety, panic attack disorders, constant heart palpitations, and I both shut down and break down easily under stress. Because of this, I am disabled, on disability, and attempts to try to put me in the work force have not been successful. I am 30 years old, have practically no college experience, and never worked properly either.
- For many of my issues, I am attending and seeing multiple people at a local mental health clinic, but it's a life long issue for me and I do not see myself improving. It's more just trying to cope with what I do have at this point and trying to deal with it the best I can.
And there's more issues I can get into.
As to why this relates to what I'm about to discuss, awhile back after I had a bad experience on Grindr, I opened a thread to vent. The result? Immediately an automatic assumptions, misunderstanding what I was saying, and it got to the point that I do not believe that the topic warranted further discussion. The topic can be read here.
What happened is I did not properly explain what happened, I was under distress, and I was not able to communicate properly. What ultimately happened was during the beginning of the conversation, I apologized to the user I had not updated my profile image in a bit, I sent him what I had at the start of the conversation, we communicated and made sure everything was okay from the get go, and somehow the user not long after that made some of those comments.

To address this in particular, please do continue to report problematic posts. Admittedly, they do sometimes take longer than intended to come to a conclusion. We are volunteers and do this in our free time; I say this not as an excuse, but as an explanation. The reports we receive are evaluated by multiple staff members and are treated with the utmost sensitivity and care. In order to make sure the right call is made, we rely heavily on relevant perspectives within the team, and this can sometimes mean reports take longer to handle.
We acknowledge that sometimes we do not "get it right", but we will always try to do our best for our members and act with the best of intentions.

By the way, Brock Reiher's ban has finally been set to a duration of one week.
...For a post he made seven days ago, so does that mean he's gonna get unbanned in like a few hours, or the twenty-eighth?
Should be in a few hours. I don't know the exact time however as the ban system is a bit finicky in regards to time zones.
Meanwhile:
User banned (duration pending): History of hostility towards members and staff, posting private messages with other users as a personal attack

I doubt many foods are halal in trumps America.
Also the fuck? You’re getting a vegan burger and expecting all other meats to cater to your religious beliefs?
HUUUUUUUH?
Vegan people are starting to get weird.
I have this co-worker who flipped out at me the other day. She only wants vegan food. I can understand that.
But nearly all vegan food is based on Soy beans but now she doesn't want food based on soy beans anymore.
So I asked her the question you shouldn't ask a vegan. "What were you eating before? Because honestly none of the things you are eating now existed 5 let alone 10 years ago."
I think the vegan only diets have started to effect their brains as much as the climate doomsday cult has.
Why r u being so dumb again.
Ofc she doesnt want want soy beans cause they are often the source of deforestation.
Yes people can want things that didnt exist before like medicine and electricity and now ethical food.
Youre always so obtuse jesus.
It's more the fact that she acts like she's going to starve to death if the <insert_veggie_trend_of_the_week> is not available to her.
I'm more wondering how she survived up to this year when Sencha soup wasn't around in 2017.
And deforestation is not the issue. She doesn't eat products with soy beans in them because they are bad for her skin? ???
She was also thinking of removing 'salt' from her diet for some reason I forgot. And then she complaints she doesn't know what to eat anymore.
Ask her if she posts on Reee

So I'd been mulling about bringing up this subject because I am absolutely not the person to really be able to express myself easily, but I think we really need to have a center focused discussion about this.
We most recently just had an issue that occurred in the Trans Awareness Week and the LGBT Issues Moderation threads, which covered aspects of the issue that I'm going to be discussing in this thread, because I feel it's incredibly important. And I absolutely think there are more significant problems on this board that need to be addressed further that both relate to those issues, as well as outside of them as well.
Before I start, I need to explain something:
I am an individual who has a number of disabilities that relate to a combination of mental health, as well as mental developmental problems. Some of these include:
- Inability to quickly process thoughts and understanding said information and communication given to me.

- I do not understand and cannot properly process spacial relation issues, which creates problems when I'm given directions on how to get to a place or what I do (I often end up going left instead of right, for instance). It also affected my ability to properly delve into aspect of Geometry, which I at the time, didn't understand why these particular things were giving me issues.
- Emotionally, I'm underdeveloped from the rest of my peers and as a result, it does make things more difficult for me to handle.
- I have anxiety, panic attack disorders, constant heart palpitations, and I both shut down and break down easily under stress. Because of this, I am disabled, on disability, and attempts to try to put me in the work force have not been successful. I am 30 years old, have practically no college experience, and never worked properly either.
- For many of my issues, I am attending and seeing multiple people at a local mental health clinic, but it's a life long issue for me and I do not see myself improving. It's more just trying to cope with what I do have at this point and trying to deal with it the best I can.
And there's more issues I can get into.
As to why this relates to what I'm about to discuss, awhile back after I had a bad experience on Grindr, I opened a thread to vent. The result? Immediately an automatic assumptions, misunderstanding what I was saying, and it got to the point that I do not believe that the topic warranted further discussion. The topic can be read here.
What happened is I did not properly explain what happened, I was under distress, and I was not able to communicate properly. What ultimately happened was during the beginning of the conversation, I apologized to the user I had not updated my profile image in a bit, I sent him what I had at the start of the conversation, we communicated and made sure everything was okay from the get go, and somehow the user not long after that made some of those comments. Ultimately, it's no big deal in the end and I just learn from it and move on.
The topic was another matter. I was called out for "Cat fishing", and it resulted in a user bumping the thread in another topic which suggested it heavily implied to be me given the wording. To add onto this, there were comments intentionally fat shaming me, and among other issues in the said thread.
Another thread that I had opened up, regarding a trending topic on Twitter and I asked users how their High School experience was, a individual posted the following text:
From the sounds of it maybe a school that could better deal w/ your behavioral issues might have done the trick, doesn’t seem like that school was working out for you.
I literally responded to the user to clarify, but they ignored my post and I can only imagine from that they were automatically assuming the worst about me and making said comment.
In another thread, after I brought up my experience on Tinder as a whole (which was a mixture, positive and negative, I think we all had that), individuals proceeded to try and "Call me out", including saying the reason they stopped talking to me was because I got caught "cat fishing", and then when I tried to explain my situation how I struggle to communicate, individual proceeded to say that I should google communication guides and stuff like that and practice and it didn't seem to matter at that point what I had to say.
For reference: Once I became aware of my communication issues, I had to learn how to communicate (took me over a year and I was still practicing since about 2003 or so), but I feel that as if I've hit a brick wall on this and I think I'm at my limit. Even my doctor told me not to over think it as this point and it's okay if I can't easily say what I have to.
These are issues that I personally experience and I feel are minor probably compared to some users, but I feel this is still worth mentioning. This is not okay and it makes me, a person with a number of issues as is, uncomfortable here.
However, we have had issues with some other topics, which I had minimal participation in, such as some of the Gym topics, in how they can be incredibly toxic in nature, and honestly: overly condescending.
Most recent topic comes to mind is this one, both in the OPs title, text, and the poll options. I often people see them post this in threads and it really bugs me as a user that I at first thought was a joke, but this topic seems to serve otherwise, including the responses feel kinda unwelcoming. There was also a topic I participated that also felt incredibly toxic and judgmental, and as a person who struggles to deal with self-esteem issues on top of what I detailed, this only made me feel worse seeing comments like this. Users did call some of this out, but doesn't feel it made an impact.
Now, this isn't intended to be a call out to individual users (and I realize it's hard not to discuss this without bringing up specific topics or posts, so I apologize for this), because I don't think it's specifically one or two people, but the fact many users are not being held accountable by some of the behavior replicated.
I do believe my personal issues, arguably are probably minor, but as someone who has to deal with miscommunications on a day-to-day basis, difficulty explaining myself, and then I feel people automatically assuming the worst, only makes these topics more difficult to post in these.
I've heard from users how uncomfortable they feel posting in Dating, Gym/Fitness threads, and among other ones, as well as some of the comments I've seen with people dealing with mental health issues and disabilities, is frustrating.
Not to mention, we've had threads asking for simple accessibility options, threads about possible issues with strobing/flashing that could cause seizures, many of these are ignored and buried quickly, or the topics become incredibly toxic that there is no conversation to be had.
We really need to talk about all these issues. I'm trying my best on this forum, and I realize a lot of times, I mess up, I try to explain myself better, and now I feel as if I ever want to post in a dating or relationship related thread, users will be quick to point out the thread above, without adding context, or I'll also be handwaved about my communication issues.
I should NOT feel this way about a forum that prides itself is making users feel safe. And I'm sure more users feel this way.
So really, we need to talk about this. How can we change this? How can this be addressed? How can the Admin/Mods make this safer? Because as it stands, I just simply do not feel safe on this forum in a majority of topics. I try and I keep posting, but I always feel I'm this close to somehow making a mistake and it just following me wherever I post.
This needs to be addressed.

You can't ask questions. Ever. It's all in bad faith! Always! Straight people are out to attack us, the holy alphabet folx.
One problem that does need to be addressed that isn't strictly administration's fault is that, as per Ketkat's post, mods are quite influenced by the fact that there's communities dedicated to harassing Era and trying to tear us down. Honestly, this affects us all-- given what I've seen over the past few days, I'm skeptical that Era's trans members didn't have the same kind of spotlight pointed on them the whole time. And if they didn't before, thanks to this debacle, they certainly do now. Given my observations about certain posters in the past, mods being lax about transphobic posters has knock-on effects for all of ERA, because the CHUDs in question have all the impulse control of toddlers. People are wise enough to brand new accounts with all of four posts chiming in on sensitive topics, so even those individuals have an impetus to participate in the community, if only to build up enough cover to cause trouble. And wouldn't you know it, it just so happens that threads about trans people happen to always be full of people showing their asses 24/7. I'm going to suggest there's a correlation there. I'm going to suggest the alt-right dickheads that like to go after ERA like going after marginalized and vulnerable people most of all, and that protecting our most marginalized and vulnerable voices readily translates to making all of us safer. That includes the mods. That's more true now, after this, than it ever has been.
Translation: Ban more users and ban them faster! Faster damnit!

I don't give two fucks about flexing my post quota, but it's odd how I'm definitely one of the top 0.001% in terms of activity and contribution to the forum and still I am unable to get decently in contact with who's in charge.
The admins missed some quality suggestions:
For the major communities of ResetEra, members with semi-regular participation and some duration of 'citizenship' of said community (6 months+ to avoid an influx of saboteurs) should elect representatives to enter into the discussions with the ResetEra staff. This way representatives are not picked by the staff themselves which could lead to accusations of picking cronies or less oppositional members.
Then staff and the representatives have an open discussion on the important topics, where all of ResetEra can view (but not participate). Closed doors sessions would likely be necessary to avoid everyone needing to "perform" and to have more candid conversations, but at the end of these conversations, agreed upon summaries would be released with the endorsement of all who participated.
Because I see people talking about alternative moderation styles. How about community moderation?
What if users can vote to ban a user based on a post. For example, if someone says something hurtful, with ten dislikes they could be banned for one day. Moderators would act to overturn any bans that don't break the TOS, for example if someone posted an unpopular yet inoffensive opinion.
It's kind of similar to Reddit, if a post receives a set amount of dislikes that comment becomes hidden but the idea is that the community will be able to make inappropriate content disappear.
New thread is also adding some quality thought:
I used to think the site's staff could do more to deal with the environment here, which they can of course but I came to the conclusion that it's not really up to them, mods can't give people emotional maturity. It's up to people to suck less, but I don't think that's happening.
My advice is thicker skin, as unhelpful as that may sound. Don't let random internet people affect how you feel about yourself, or about anything really.
I'm sorry you didn't find what you were looking for here.
This is the perfect example of the type of post that should not be posted and contributes to a toxic environment on this site.
It displays a complete lack of empathy and demonstrates victim blaming tendencies. Then finishes with an exclusionary message that is basically telling the person they are responding to to leave the community if they are unwilling to put up with bad actors.
Just an overall toxic post

So I'd been mulling about bringing up this subject because I am absolutely not the person to really be able to express myself easily, but I think we really need to have a center focused discussion about this.
We most recently just had an issue that occurred in the Trans Awareness Week and the LGBT Issues Moderation threads, which covered aspects of the issue that I'm going to be discussing in this thread, because I feel it's incredibly important. And I absolutely think there are more significant problems on this board that need to be addressed further that both relate to those issues, as well as outside of them as well.
Before I start, I need to explain something:
I am an individual who has a number of disabilities that relate to a combination of mental health, as well as mental developmental problems. Some of these include:
- Inability to quickly process thoughts and understanding said information and communication given to me.
- Inability to properly articulate what I want to say both in a text and vocal conversation. The latter is significantly worse than the former, but I absolutely do struggle to be able to communicate easily. As a result, I cannot easily and properly explain things as a result, especially in instances of heavy and emotional distress.
- I do not understand and cannot properly process spacial relation issues, which creates problems when I'm given directions on how to get to a place or what I do (I often end up going left instead of right, for instance). It also affected my ability to properly delve into aspect of Geometry, which I at the time, didn't understand why these particular things were giving me issues.
- Emotionally, I'm underdeveloped from the rest of my peers and as a result, it does make things more difficult for me to handle.
- I have anxiety, panic attack disorders, constant heart palpitations, and I both shut down and break down easily under stress. Because of this, I am disabled, on disability, and attempts to try to put me in the work force have not been successful. I am 30 years old, have practically no college experience, and never worked properly either.
- For many of my issues, I am attending and seeing multiple people at a local mental health clinic, but it's a life long issue for me and I do not see myself improving. It's more just trying to cope with what I do have at this point and trying to deal with it the best I can.
And there's more issues I can get into.
As to why this relates to what I'm about to discuss, awhile back after I had a bad experience on Grindr, I opened a thread to vent. The result? Immediately an automatic assumptions, misunderstanding what I was saying, and it got to the point that I do not believe that the topic warranted further discussion. The topic can be read here.
What happened is I did not properly explain what happened, I was under distress, and I was not able to communicate properly. What ultimately happened was during the beginning of the conversation, I apologized to the user I had not updated my profile image in a bit, I sent him what I had at the start of the conversation, we communicated and made sure everything was okay from the get go, and somehow the user not long after that made some of those comments. Ultimately, it's no big deal in the end and I just learn from it and move on.
The topic was another matter. I was called out for "Cat fishing", and it resulted in a user bumping the thread in another topic which suggested it heavily implied to be me given the wording. To add onto this, there were comments intentionally fat shaming me, and among other issues in the said thread.
Another thread that I had opened up, regarding a trending topic on Twitter and I asked users how their High School experience was, a individual posted the following text:
From the sounds of it maybe a school that could better deal w/ your behavioral issues might have done the trick, doesn’t seem like that school was working out for you.
I literally responded to the user to clarify, but they ignored my post and I can only imagine from that they were automatically assuming the worst about me and making said comment.
In another thread, after I brought up my experience on Tinder as a whole (which was a mixture, positive and negative, I think we all had that), individuals proceeded to try and "Call me out", including saying the reason they stopped talking to me was because I got caught "cat fishing", and then when I tried to explain my situation how I struggle to communicate, individual proceeded to say that I should google communication guides and stuff like that and practice and it didn't seem to matter at that point what I had to say.

Not to mention, we've had threads asking for simple accessibility options, threads about possible issues with strobing/flashing that could cause seizures, many of these are ignored and buried quickly, or the topics become incredibly toxic that there is no conversation to be had.
We really need to talk about all these issues. I'm trying my best on this forum, and I realize a lot of times, I mess up, I try to explain myself better, and now I feel as if I ever want to post in a dating or relationship related thread, users will be quick to point out the thread above, without adding context, or I'll also be handwaved about my communication issues.
I should NOT feel this way about a forum that prides itself is making users feel safe. And I'm sure more users feel this way.
So really, we need to talk about this. How can we change this? How can this be addressed? How can the Admin/Mods make this safer? Because as it stands, I just simply do not feel safe on this forum in a majority of topics. I try and I keep posting, but I always feel I'm this close to somehow making a mistake and it just following me wherever I post.
This needs to be addressed.

Is there a single fucking regular poster on that site who isn't an emotionally and mentally stunted degenerate drama queen? It's a fucking message board you fucking losers. Close the tab if you feel "threatened" by pixels on screen. How do these mouth breathers manage to do ANYTHING in the real world?
This is what happens when all your social interaction comes from a message board.
You are supposed to get social support from people face to face, family, friends, counselors, and so on. Not mouth breathers online who have no social graces at all. We evolved in very close knit groups. The internet is not the place for the empathy and real community many of the posters want. Even an apparently SAFE space like ERA sucks for that, ironically so.
These dudes need to get a therapist. Join meetups. Get the fuck out of their rooms and engage with the real world.
It’s not surprising many don’t get well. They piss away all their time in these fake communities.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/we-need-to-have-a-discussion-about-how-members-treat-other-members-on-this-site-and-among-other-issues.154572/
So I'd been mulling about bringing up this subject because I am absolutely not the person to really be able to express myself easily, but I think we really need to have a center focused discussion about this.
We most recently just had an issue that occurred in the Trans Awareness Week and the LGBT Issues Moderation threads, which covered aspects of the issue that I'm going to be discussing in this thread, because I feel it's incredibly important. And I absolutely think there are more significant problems on this board that need to be addressed further that both relate to those issues, as well as outside of them as well.
Before I start, I need to explain something:
I am an individual who has a number of disabilities that relate to a combination of mental health, as well as mental developmental problems. Some of these include:
- Inability to quickly process thoughts and understanding said information and communication given to me.
- Inability to properly articulate what I want to say both in a text and vocal conversation. The latter is significantly worse than the former, but I absolutely do struggle to be able to communicate easily. As a result, I cannot easily and properly explain things as a result, especially in instances of heavy and emotional distress.
- I do not understand and cannot properly process spacial relation issues, which creates problems when I'm given directions on how to get to a place or what I do (I often end up going left instead of right, for instance). It also affected my ability to properly delve into aspect of Geometry, which I at the time, didn't understand why these particular things were giving me issues.
- Emotionally, I'm underdeveloped from the rest of my peers and as a result, it does make things more difficult for me to handle.
- I have anxiety, panic attack disorders, constant heart palpitations, and I both shut down and break down easily under stress. Because of this, I am disabled, on disability, and attempts to try to put me in the work force have not been successful. I am 30 years old, have practically no college experience, and never worked properly either.
- For many of my issues, I am attending and seeing multiple people at a local mental health clinic, but it's a life long issue for me and I do not see myself improving. It's more just trying to cope with what I do have at this point and trying to deal with it the best I can.
And there's more issues I can get into.
As to why this relates to what I'm about to discuss, awhile back after I had a bad experience on Grindr, I opened a thread to vent. The result? Immediately an automatic assumptions, misunderstanding what I was saying, and it got to the point that I do not believe that the topic warranted further discussion. The topic can be read here.
What happened is I did not properly explain what happened, I was under distress, and I was not able to communicate properly. What ultimately happened was during the beginning of the conversation, I apologized to the user I had not updated my profile image in a bit, I sent him what I had at the start of the conversation, we communicated and made sure everything was okay from the get go, and somehow the user not long after that made some of those comments. Ultimately, it's no big deal in the end and I just learn from it and move on.
The topic was another matter. I was called out for "Cat fishing", and it resulted in a user bumping the thread in another topic which suggested it heavily implied to be me given the wording. To add onto this, there were comments intentionally fat shaming me, and among other issues in the said thread.
Another thread that I had opened up, regarding a trending topic on Twitter and I asked users how their High School experience was, a individual posted the following text:
From the sounds of it maybe a school that could better deal w/ your behavioral issues might have done the trick, doesn’t seem like that school was working out for you.
I literally responded to the user to clarify, but they ignored my post and I can only imagine from that they were automatically assuming the worst about me and making said comment.
In another thread, after I brought up my experience on Tinder as a whole (which was a mixture, positive and negative, I think we all had that), individuals proceeded to try and "Call me out", including saying the reason they stopped talking to me was because I got caught "cat fishing", and then when I tried to explain my situation how I struggle to communicate, individual proceeded to say that I should google communication guides and stuff like that and practice and it didn't seem to matter at that point what I had to say.
For reference: Once I became aware of my communication issues, I had to learn how to communicate (took me over a year and I was still practicing since about 2003 or so), but I feel that as if I've hit a brick wall on this and I think I'm at my limit. Even my doctor told me not to over think it as this point and it's okay if I can't easily say what I have to.
These are issues that I personally experience and I feel are minor probably compared to some users, but I feel this is still worth mentioning. This is not okay and it makes me, a person with a number of issues as is, uncomfortable here.
However, we have had issues with some other topics, which I had minimal participation in, such as some of the Gym topics, in how they can be incredibly toxic in nature, and honestly: overly condescending.
Most recent topic comes to mind is this one, both in the OPs title, text, and the poll options. I often people see them post this in threads and it really bugs me as a user that I at first thought was a joke, but this topic seems to serve otherwise, including the responses feel kinda unwelcoming. There was also a topic I participated that also felt incredibly toxic and judgmental, and as a person who struggles to deal with self-esteem issues on top of what I detailed, this only made me feel worse seeing comments like this. Users did call some of this out, but doesn't feel it made an impact.
Now, this isn't intended to be a call out to individual users (and I realize it's hard not to discuss this without bringing up specific topics or posts, so I apologize for this), because I don't think it's specifically one or two people, but the fact many users are not being held accountable by some of the behavior replicated.
I do believe my personal issues, arguably are probably minor, but as someone who has to deal with miscommunications on a day-to-day basis, difficulty explaining myself, and then I feel people automatically assuming the worst, only makes these topics more difficult to post in these.
I've heard from users how uncomfortable they feel posting in Dating, Gym/Fitness threads, and among other ones, as well as some of the comments I've seen with people dealing with mental health issues and disabilities, is frustrating.

No, they don't. They are all "disabled" and leeching off society or their parents. It's clearly evidenced by the amount of time they put into the forum. As an adult who works I have actual real world shit to do which is why I have so few posts on here and Era, I lurk because frankly who has the time (never mind the desire) to devote to that? Era is grifter central, a bunch of fucking 30 year old children that know nothing about reality. This recent incident only served to highlight how fucking insane that place has become.
It's been a long slow sad ride watching GAF go from a cool place to read about vidja games to a dystopian fascist left wing insane asylum.

There's your answer right there. They don't manage to do anything. Era is a case of the inmates running the asylum.

Reality is most of era are dysfunctional adults in real life. The ratio of mental illness in the population has to be 1 in 20. The normal folks are usually banned because they react to dysfunctional thinking as if it’s normal and the dysfunctional mods with mental issues get triggered instantly

I know absolutely nothing about modern kiddie films. One time I was looking for a gift for my nephew and saw a Frozen coloring book with Elsa and that other chick on the cover in a very romantic-looking embrace and thought huh, so they are a couple. Later I was told they are sisters and googling what the fuck was up with that cover I found out about the incest shippers for Frozen and welp, I guess one of them got their fan art on a children's coloring book cover. Good thing I didn't flip through the pages :exxy

meanwhile in video games:
User Warned: Inflammatory generalizations
I love how pointing out that this game it totally predatory is apparently "shit posting" and worthy of warnings. Star Citizen is a pseudo cult/religion at this point, full of people and sharks who apparently think that throwing money at developers for over a decade will release some sort of final game that will end all games and give life purpose and meaning. There is nothing normal about how this game is financed, and the fact that this game can be in perpetual development and continually have private events where people pay real money to get access to pay even more money to buy digital ships, is like borderline Scientology E-metering-esque.
This game represents everything gross and wrong with capitalism, gaming, and digital economies. Even if aspects of the tech are interesting, none of these practices are worth defending.
User Warned: Trolling
Holy
Fucking
Shit
This was the first I've ever seen of the game - no videos, screenshots, previews, threads, nothing - totally blank slate.
I cannot believe this is an actual thing. It's quite possibly the stupidest game I've seen in years. People are seriously calling this a "GOTY"? What in the ever-living fuck is going on here? It's made by the same person who created MSG? Is this some kind of "emperor has no clothes" moment? Am I taking crazy pills?
This. Video. Is. Intentionally. Playing. Badly. For. Lols.
It is NOT honest representation.
You based your entire opinion of something you know nothing about on one short video which if not being outright disingenuous is purposefully framing things as poorly as possible for laughs. So you tell us. To quote someone who is taking crazy pills, Holy Fucking Shit.
You're basing your first impressions on a Dunkey video?
If you want to get an actual idea of the game then watch an actual review instead of a meme YouTuber.
Little dissapointed in dunk on this one. Its kinda tantamount to playing a shooter with a high dpi gaming mouse and the sensitivity maxed, then calling it 'hard to aim'. Certainly a divisive game, but fighting against the game's systems and blaming the game doesn't make great games criticism.
It's also most certainly walking the line between "done for laughs" and "serious critique", but you can tell dunkey dislikes the game, and the footage on display just shows someone, intentionally or not, refusing to play within the game's constraints.
Doesn't change the fact the footage is misleading, and some people ITT are taking it as honest representation.
The video is pure hyperbole for entertainment. If you think otherwise just lol
At this point, the game factually scored pretty well.
Reading this thread its pretty clear how disingenuous (or sadder, blind) some are being...
...Its incredible actually. I figured this tomfoolery would have ended when the game came out but here we are. lmaooooo
If you've not played it, it's impossible to tell if you'll think it elevates beyond that. Some of us thought the same as you, and now consider it 10/10 GotY/GotG.
The footage has some jokes but isn't *that* misleading.
Yes it is.
You have like, a hundred posts in this thread. That's defensiveness
No mate, I'm discussing a game I'm passionate about. Me breaking down why you made incorrect statements is not that. You're the only one being defensive out of the two of us.
The fact you cannot even counter and rush to ad hominem says it all.
megalowho please don't creep into my DMs with insults mate, thank you.
Sorry! Didn't want to derail. I'll post it here.
You keep editing your posts to add more put downs and snark lol. You win! Maybe step away for a bit?
EDIT: not worth carrying this on, already covered it all. Anyone is free to read why your nonsense is just that. <3
Hes been doing the same thing in the OT and been called out for it there as well. Its incredibly petty.
Actually, fuck it... I'm out. This thread has been wild, enjoy!
Dunkey misrepresenting some stuff about a game, what's new? He may be right about some stuff, but I just can't find him funny.
Who he’s fooling here? He made equality horrible video about the last guardian, I think that he genuinely doesn’t get these type of games.
It’s not so funny when his fans use his videos to form their opinions about certain games
27 pages for this dunkey video :dead

astro will come back to it for another ten pages if people keep posting how they liked the video :teehee

They most certainly don't manage anything. That's why they act as if subpar Iron Man stories or videogame skirts are issues of life and death. Going to the cinema for shitty Disney flicks is probably most activity they get out of a month. So they either have to accept that they are useless manbabies, or pretend that the only thing they do - which is nothing - makes them progressive superstars of a a fantasized revolution. :insane

It doesn't help that these same people cheer and advocate isolating themselves and others from their family and friends for the pettiest of reasons. How many threads have they had bragging about how they gladly cut off family and friends because of political disagreements? They cheer and encourage others to do the same just so they can be ideologically "pure". Any wrong think in their lives needs to excised, even if it makes them lonely outcasts. That's not healthy at all. All that does is make you into inept social outcasts that cannot understand basic human interaction, so you cling on irrelevant shit like a forum for validation and emotional support when you should be getting that from your friends and your family.

But this is a discussion board! It isn’t tumblr or LiveJournal. The mission statement even calls out discussing various topics as being the point of the place, not simply listening to someone who wants support via absolute understanding and zero criticism of their situation. That is what a therapist is for.
These things can co-exist. Just because your criticisms aren’t wanted in one thread doesn’t mean you are not allowed to criticize anything ever throughout the whole website. You should just recognize that there are times when what you have to say is unwarranted or unneeded. It’s okay to not say anything sometimes.
:mindblown
...and if the logical endpoint of that thought is that the website is filled entirely with people that don't want to hear any criticism?

You should just recognize that there are times when what you have to say is unwarranted or unneeded. It’s okay to not say anything sometimes.
:mindblown
...and if the logical endpoint of that thought is that the website is filled entirely with people that don't want to hear any criticism?
Your thoughts on Jussie Smollett's innocence are unwarranted and unneeded
Your thoughts on Hillary Clinton's suitability to political office are unwarranted and unneeded
Your thoughts on Etika...

I agree. I'm fairly sure he is a pedo, but in court he was deemed not guilty so it isn't factual. Kids both accused him and defended him. Kids can easily be manipulated one way or another.
Completely believing he's innocent is a shit opinion, but it doesn't warrant the reaction it gets. You just disagree, but era is incapable of that. Assume the worst, dogpile emotionally, report, and get him banned.

Yes, the only reason why there isn't hostility in real life is because the poor victims in our life don't feel empowered to our wrong and bigoted ways.

For the people who say they use the holiday to be with family and eat, I don't see any mention of talking about or educating about the plight of Native Americans. Nothing about an activity outside to inform yourself more about the history, like going to a museum exhibit or an event/festival held by Native Americans. Joining in protests or talks about saving the lands. Getting to meet Native Americans for the first time.

But how about having just a pretty good thanksgiving dinner instead of a really good one, and donate the saved money to an indigenous organization in the area or elsewhere? This way there is less work preparing food and more time watching TV, the neoliberal order that makes people value their free time so strongly in the first place is uphold, and you don't have to think too much about being a cog in the colonial machine.
I was going to insult this but if I could get out of family events by saying I'm protesting for equality it would be pretty sweet. I already do that when a friend needs furniture moved or for visiting a sick aunt.

Skipping a dinner with you aunt is a pussy move. :doge
If you are not a Native American or weren't brought in by the slave trade, and you're living on US or Canadian soil, just leave the country. Leave all your possessions in a communal fund for the natives to access to, and go back to your land of "origin".

Honestly it is. How do you reply to that shit in real life? Do they not realize minorities make fun of "woke" black and white people all the time.
It's really quite fun and easy given how many white people (bilagáana) are in America. If you just find two of them that do the same behavior you can form a racial stereotype of them and nobody questions it. Like how all guys named Tom love frozen yogurt. You fucking yogurt lovers!

This thread is now re-opened. Going forward, please be considerate of the historical significance surrounding Thanksgiving and the genocide that took place. Even if you think "It's just a holiday!", we ask that you be considerate that many people have been affected by this, and the issue matters greatly to them. Thank you.

It has gotten significantly worse in the last few months.
I used to be able to just stay out of trans threads because 1 misstep and boom 2 weeks to perm. I don't know the origins, but I suspect the extra protected status of these people has allowed them to pile up on people and use very aggressive language and that's bled out of just those topics. Very quickly someone is misinterpreted to the extreme in a variety of topics.
Over the last month I've started adding people to my ignore list and I've noticed most of the people I ignore don't actually post that much. When they do post, it's often baiting people into a ban.
The thread about treating others nice has already spun into a "well if you are uncomfortable you deserve it bigot, fuck you".
The most recent example that I can think of is how a slew of people were banned for suggesting to be more constructive with the Thanksgiving holiday. Those people were banned for dismissing concerns of colonization or some shit.

Skye also claims he would spend three hours masturbating to tentacle rape hentai most mornings so he could “focus for the rest of the day.”

So is there actually much tentacle rape hentai or is it all just a big exaggeration?

Why not go on a journey and find out? (Think tentacles are exempt from censorship, which is why they use those.)

This 110 page doc is actually pretty gripping
Greg publicly announces that he and Patient Zero are dating. By this point, they have moved in together. A week later, Greg begins locking her out of the editing bay so he can masturbate to animated porn in which underaged girls are being raped.
Things to note:
The house had no beds or furniture. Greg made Patient Zero “service” him about 8 times a day, leading to multiple UTI infections, and made her sleep next to him while he was editing videos so she could service him during the process.
She shaves half her head to give herself a punk look, but during sex, Greg shaves all of it off to degrade her and so she can be his “good little whore.”
The cruelty! But it’s a comedy as the scene plays in my head!
-
6/22/2011: Patient Zero suffers a grand mal seizure alone in the shower after Greg tells her that she is morbidly obese and must lose weight for him.
The results leave her in an infantile state where she believes she is four years old. Greg grabs the camera and filmed this.
She passes out after another seizure and when she wakes up, she has suffered such debilitating memory loss that she believes she has been kidnapped by Greg. She is wet, shaking, and only covered with a blanket as Greg films her.
Greg does not take her to a hospital.
This is nucking futs! Someone call Belzer and Ice-T! This dude is a psychopath.
9/3/2011: Greg uploads a video titled “I Found Her” in which he declares that he has a new girlfriend: a woman we will refer to as AJ. He asked her to be his girlfriend over Skype and she said yes.
9/4/2011: Greg uploads a video announcing that he and AJ broke up. They get back together shortly afterwards. They have not met in person by this point.
9/5/2011: Greg tweets that Skye is supporting him during the breakup with AJ. Little does he know that AJ was speaking to Patient Zero and Skye around this point in time.
9/10/2011: Greg flies to Texas and gets a hotel room to meet AJ in person for the first time; he almost immediately pressures her into having sex with him.
On the first sexual encounter, he ignores her saying “no no no no” over and over to sex. Greg uses her latex allergy against her and lays the pressure on her to let him cum inside of her raw, even though she begs him not to. He does it anyway. (The Letter: https://onisiondrama.tumblr.com/letter)
He expresses that he wants to marry her and knock her up, even though they are only just meeting for the first time.
Look at those dates! This dude’s relationship’s move fuckin’ fast.

9/10/2011: Greg flies to Texas and gets a hotel room to meet AJ in person for the first time; he almost immediately pressures her into having sex with him.
On the first sexual encounter, he ignores her saying “no no no no” over and over to sex. Greg uses her latex allergy against her and lays the pressure on her to let him cum inside of her raw, even though she begs him not to. He does it anyway. (The Letter: https://onisiondrama.tumblr.com/letter)
He expresses that he wants to marry her and knock her up, even though they are only just meeting for the first time.
Look at those dates! This dude’s relationship’s move fuckin’ fast.
Patient Zero and Greg?

One positive of aborting autists: no more kiwi farms :kermit
-
No more global warming either. We're on to something here folks.
Biofuel from murdered autisty's can power our cities, factories and Marvel theatres carbon free.
-
Think of all the potential resetera posters that were aborted for genetic reasons :(
-
I bet you could get an easy page and half thread of unanimous agreement if you posted something a thread going something like ‘if you could detect a right winger in the womb they should be aborted’ on ree before a mod closes it down cos they’ve done an accidental fashy :brain
-
Autisty facts
- In the 2016 election most people on the spectrum voted for Trump, Hillary Clinton warned us about these 'deplorables'
- Autisty's have little to no friends and most of them are racist alt-right cis men, unlike other groups no one will miss them or advocate for them
- Autisty's make up 1.7% of the world population and mostly live in in urban areas, freeing up housing for non-autisty's
- In the past, leaders like Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, Qadaffi, Saddam and yes HITLER were autisty's
- Autisty's can't easiliy flee to a new place and mostly keep to themselves, so it is super easy to round them up
- Autisty's are easily identified and there is a less than 0.9% chance that a suspected autisty is not autistic
In conclusion. The autisty's nearly killed us all and our planet and it is time we fought back!
Presenting the "BAT" act or Ban Autism Today act.
- Carbon free bio fuel from their murdered corpses will power our factories, cities and Marvel theaters
- Removing autisty's from society will solve a lot of social tensions and problems, lowering the cost of law enforcement
- Healthcare costs will dramatically decrease for all non autisty's
- Psychological help will finally be available for those who really need it instead of unemployed Bobby who still pisses his pants at 40
- You will no longer be annoyed or embarrassed when you are forced to take an autisty 'friend', 'co-worker' or 'family' member to a party
- Video games will be fun again to play casually during weekends, no more lvl 200 cheating autisty's ruining your COD game!
Humanity First!

Holy shit I’m on page 65 of this thing. So many twists and turns. This is what atramental’s life is going to look like in a few years or months.

I know this is a lot to ask but when you're finished imma need those dot points

Waaaaaaaaay too many. This is deep internet e-relationship drama with at least two narcissists (Onision and his female-to-agender-to-non-binary-to-male transgender person spouse-it shifts throughout the story—btw he’s bi and was like 16 when she got into a relationship with this 27 year old creeper). Shit, that was a big parenthetical comment. Like I said, DEEP drama. Public fighting on Instagram with the 15 year old girl they used for threesomes for a month. It’s amazing. The dude is a pimp. Like in the evil sense, not the fun Snoop Dogg sense.
Also, this document is very one-sided. Judging by some of the responses in evidence screenshots, the authors of this damning document are just as huge of drama queens as the two main perpetrators. An honest accounting of this force of nature would probably run at least a thousand pages.
-
sounds like he should run an internet forum
-
To be fair I really don't think it's unreasonable to assume that if you have a question about something then that means several other people have asked that question and thus has been answered several times before. I too did not know what Folx meant before you just mentioned it but now I have an idea thanks to looking it up. Asking questions is very similar to asking for help with homework; when you do it you have to show that you've attempted to answer the question yourself.
yeah, the problem kinda actually is that if your posting on a forum feels like doing homework that forum is kinda a shitty ass place to be
-
Here, another example of why this can’t be summed up. You have to be able to decipher stuff like this, at least once a page. There seem to be like a half dozen 16 year old girls they were fucking, and it sounds like most of them lived with them for a period of time, too. Anyway, sample drama chunk:
12/25/2017: Greg approaches Account M on Christmas morning and asks if she’d like to say yes to a polyamorous relationship.
Account M believes that she is agreeing to enter a V-type polyamory in which Kai is dating Greg and Account M simultaneously, since she has had little to no personal connection to Greg at all. She agrees.
Greg closes the V at this agreement and assaults Account M by forcing a kiss on her before she can react or consent.
Later on, Account M rejects Greg’s advances. Greg is furious, saying he’s not used to people rejecting him and screams at Account M as he holds his young son.
12/28/2017: Account M texts Greg apologizing for any “stress” she caused and says that after everyone has healed, she would like to try again for a V-type polyamorous relationship. Greg, burned by her rejection, speaks on behalf of Kai and tells her that “[they] are happier now that things are peaceful once again” and rejects her apology.
-
This is like a great telenovela! It keeps getting crazier! Maybe YouTube is making the world a better place with these celebrities.
Around 1/11/2018: Diapergate.
Kai and Madison (a friend of Kai’s who would let Kai confide his marital dissatisfaction to her) both go out to eat at Red Robin, get new piercings, and shop at Target.
Greg is left in charge of her baby girl and Madison gives him her contact information if anything happens.
Greg ignores the baby when she needs a diaper change and does not tell Madison at any point that he won’t change her diaper or that the baby needed to be changed.
The baby is left sitting in her own waste for hours; when Madison comes back, the resulting diaper rash leaves the baby’s upper legs, butt, and lower back bleeding from the abrasions.
Madison is furious. She claims Greg “got up in her face” and screamed at her for getting mad at him about this.
:nugenix at the bolded and the story only gets more awesome from there!
Harsh, I swear, I’m just trying to get the best bits of this out of this monolith and into public eyes:
3/23/2019: Greg releases a video covering Diapergate, accusing Madison of being a terrible parent, asserting that the baby’s skin was awful before he let her stew in her own waste for hours, and defending his actions by saying he didn’t want to look like a pedophile for changing the baby.
4/8/2019: Kai AKA Laineybot announces that he is a transgender man and states that originally, he was thinking of transitioning under the name “Eli” or “Spencer.” However, Greg “suggested” that he instead adopt the name “Kai,” which Kai accepts.
Kai states that he badly wants top surgery (a procedure which would transform a person’s breasts into a flat, masculine-presenting chest), but claims that he is still breastfeeding his children and that he will have to wait to receive the surgery.
This coincides with the television broadcast of American Horror Story: Cult, which featured a blue-haired cult leader named Kai Anderson. Greg has praised the character of Kai Anderson in the past; “Anderson” was also Kai’s maiden name.

I think I need to just write off the off-topic forum on Resetera. Everything is so heated and nothing gets discussed
You can ignore a whole forum using the ignore function.
After a while, I was putting so many posters on ignore, I just gave up on ERA. I go there just to lurk about new gaming news, rarely reading past the original post. That way I keep my sanity. It's still a decent aggregator for gaming news. There's also the NESBot twitter that only posts thread titles. There's one for gaming and for the OT. I only check out the gaming one for obvious reasons.

All the replies he’s getting on Twitter are so satisfying. This dude is real trash. I really feel horrible about what those girls went through. Think about it, two psycho dudes, one about 30, the other a previous victim-recruit in her early 20s, playing mind games and gaslighting 15 and 16 year old girls from shitty homes. I can’t even believe how much of a mindfuck it must’ve been for the girls to realize they were pawns for perverts for years.
And I still have 20 more pages to go. I’m on September of this year.
This dude sounds like atramental talking about some chick he just fucked that he plans to cruelly dump for personal satisfaction.

Here’s what I mean about that Onision doc being one sided: the whole story about the miscarriage is a confirmed lie. That particular girlfriend, the same one that said he demanded sex 8 times a day AND watched 3 hours of hentai porn a day, has absolutely no credibility if she’s still trying to pass that story off as real. She’s also the one that had the traumatic seizures that made her lose her memory. And she’s also a Canadian Disney pop star, apparently, so she’s probably cool with any available shameless self-promotion.
So, like, that doc is a good story, but just how slanted is it?

Being critical of the police means you shouldn't report crimes.
Real galaxy brain take there.
There's a difference between being critical of police and saying ACAB.
The galaxy brain take is making the assumption that because there are a few bad police, then all of them are bad. Kinda like how if there's one black dude who is a drug dealing gang member doesn't make all black dudes drug dealing gang members.
My take is, REEEsetera members shouldn't be fucking hypocrites.
-
Real criticisms do exist due to the inherent nature of policing.
But of course neoneogaffers are stunted in terms of nuance and this thread series revels in that incapability of nuance resulting in ten of thousands of posts.

Furthermore, the OP has agreed that his decisions were reckless. Ultimately, we do not condone driving under the influence; anyone who wants to criticize and/or educate the OP for driving home after having consumed edibles is free to do so. Continued hostility towards the OP will be moderated as such.
good job 'determining' being so fucking high you think you've been roofied didn't break the legal blood alcohol test limits, so therefore isn't that bad, and maybe not a 'serious' threat to other drivers - again, being so fucking high they think they've been roofied - that you'll ban members for calling them out on it for 'hostility'.

People getting banned for "hostility" when the person to whom they're being "hostile" drove home under the influence. Don't wanna hurt his feelings, I guess.

I jumped on the mod post as being a little, if not a lot iffy but I think it was probably meant in good faith as a way to not create a dogpile on the OP - just very misguided and hasty!
That being said no need to go all cancel culture on the mod team either.
Won't someone please think of the OP who chose to drive home after drinking and eating an edible!
Also, going all cancel culture on a mod was perfectly fine earlier this week.
ALSO I thought cancel culture didn't exist as written by ERA Law? :thinking

uhhhh
OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION The timeline of events as laid out by the OP and reaffirmed by other members, as well as a determination by another member in the thread that the OP's BAC was too low to break the legal threshold in America, means we do not believe the OP posed a serious threat to other drivers on the road. Furthermore, the OP has agreed that his decisions were reckless. Ultimately, we do not condone driving under the influence; anyone who wants to criticize and/or educate the OP for driving home after having consumed edibles is free to do so. Continued hostility towards the OP will be moderated as such.
good job 'determining' being so fucking high you think you've been roofied didn't break the legal blood alcohol test limits, so therefore isn't that bad, and maybe not a 'serious' threat to other drivers - again, being so fucking high they think they've been roofied - that you'll ban members for calling them out on it for 'hostility'.
How is Neph okay with driving while high but not eating in her new car that she paid way too much for?

Wow lol
How can I apply to be a mod? They seem to let anyone be one these days.
Why did this even warrant a staff post? Is OP friends with the mod team?
"They're gonna stop attacking OP if I make a dumb ass post!" Taphead.gif
Calling the guy a piece of shit? Yeah, I suppose I could understand the argument that that's too harsh. But one guy just said "single digit IQ" and I'm shocked that that is the level of hostility worth banning over.
Not even gonna touch the "we've determined he was good to drive" nonsense.
It’s a touchy subject so just say “cool it with the insults” and give warnings to the offending posts and don’t make a stupid post.
It’s real fucking simple.
What a ridiculous mod post.
Glad to know our mods were on the scene!
The silent majority is slowly awakening to the shitshow that REEEsetera is, but a steady stream of bans will soon put them in their place.

Hahaha holy shit what a wonderful thread.

Now they are trying to get the people unbanned because it is ok to insult people as long as a family member of yours was hit by a drunk driver
-
I'm good with insulting people who have a high disregard for the lives of others.
-
You deserve to be insulted if you get behind the wheel of a vehicle after drinking and eating an edible.
-
I thought being against drunk/drugged up drivers was one of those things pretty much everyone was against :doge
-
When is Hobbes unbanned? I would really appreciate his insight into this and how the mods have again fucked up and really need an incident manager.

I mean, people can call you a piece of shit with impunity for expressing all sorts of unpopular opinions.

Apologies aren't going to bring back whoever they hit though, so maybe you are right.

I only take 1 beer tops if I have to drive myself.
Which is the legal limit but I only do that if I also had a decent meal and won't have to go out and drive for another hour or so.

I always end up in a weird place when it comes to authoritarianism. I value criticizing it for its failings (cop things among others) and a fervent extolling of order.
Leads to the weirdest compromise with bossy robocops when I try and work it out.

Making someone as dumb as nepenthe a mod was a huge fuckin mistake :lol :lol
lol @ ah shit i've been roofied! let me get in my car and drive it off!
-
I'm in the camp that says OP was never roofied and just a little drunk for the first time in their pitiful existence.
-
Mod hits just keep coming...
Lmao, what the hell at whichever mod came in fists swinging like that. Of course it's an OFFICIAL STAFF POST MUST READ and not, I don't know, their personal determination. The hamfisted mod abuse on this site is getting out of hand tbh. When you guys make these OFFICIAL statements like a fucking government agency, how many of the mods actually sign off on it? Because how the hell did multiple mods think something like that was ok to post?
...do you think maybe the mods are not exactly up to the task Herr Cereal?
Edit: maybe suitability for modship shouldn't be determined based on skin colour, sexual orientation, gender fluidity, list of disabilities, list of mental health problems and income in that order.

the op should've done meth and everything would have turned out fine!

I jumped on the mod post as being a little, if not a lot iffy but I think it was probably meant in good faith as a way to not create a dogpile on the OP - just very misguided and hasty!

Hi guests lol
-
i dont read this thread but had to come here when i saw that have i been roofied thread where the fucker admits he was DUI and the people calling him out are getting banned
and then mods somehow determine he wasn't a threat to others when he drove home so its all gucci
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
It's okay. (She's high)

So it feels like the recent push for more protection for minority posters is being extended to everyone including shitty people and idk about that. It should be fine to call a piece of shit a piece of shit if they post about being a piece of shit, not every post has to conductive or facilitate conversation. In fact I'm pretty sure most people if told by someone in real life that they they drove under the influence would respond with something to the likes of 'wow, you're a piece of shit' so I dunno why the it would be different for someone online.

How are you getting this take out of this thread
The bac thing was dumb from the mods, they owned up to it and dropped it, are you actually gonna say they were swinging power with impunity because a few posters rightfully got banned for insults that went over the line? it's entirely possible to criticize op for driving under the influence without the insults and tons of people in this thread did so without getting banned
mmmm boot licking

The transparency was a flat out fucking lie, and was dropped from almost the first day.
You're just an ad revenue stat to this place.
For all the talk about this being a safe space for people is a fucking joke (the biggest one of all) as the admin are far too concerned with optics from the off-site places of all things.
Constantly pulling the "clean slate" for people who just go of-site and just laugh and laugh how they're constantly given another chance. And flat out say they're going to make trouble, and yet nothing happens.
And the only reason those people are kept it, is for the numbers. Cause it's all about the $$$ baby.
I'm still genuinely hurt by my banning when opening up about being afraid of being doxxed. And then, AND THEN. The staff fucking mock me publicly.

You need to speak in specifics, because this is really vague. What is it you specifically expect when it comes to the notion of transparency? That is going to mean different things to different people, some of them doable, some of them not. Almost everyone is going to agree with the general notion that transparency=good, just saying it doesn't really present any specific problem to be addressed, and oftentimes threads like this just become a general pile-on of re-litigating old threads or discussing a general sense of malaise.

Y'all know an incident Manager is just a entry IT person right?
Sorry Hobbes, you are the hero in my heart
What is an Incident Manager?
Working in the area of information technology, an Incident Manager is essentially responsible for the upkeep and smooth operations of IT systems. They oversee all aspects of the incident management process, from evaluation to resolution. An Incident Manager records all issues and helps to design ways to prevent similar problems in the future. He or she will manage technical support teams, create procedures to deal with problems and develop solutions.
Incident Managers are employed in IT departments across all industries. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment growth for computer and information systems managers, including Incident Managers, will be 15 percent through 2024. Continued upgrades to newer computer systems and increased reliability on the operation of systems by all industries are major reasons for this expected growth.

Moderators here, for the most part, are literally fending off a hoard at the gates. I’ve been helped out numerous times by them directly.

Being under the legal limit for BAC does not prevent you from being too impaired to drive or from receiving a DUI. It's a single one-size-fits-all standard so it's more difficult to challenge in court, it is not at all medically chosen.
Especially when combined with other drugs. If you're Nepenthe's size and take something like ambien with your glass of wine because you're an idiot there's a good chance you won't even know where the fuck you are let alone be able to operate the motor vehicle you have 83 months left on your loan for.

Yeah that "roofie" thread is nuts. Strong edibles are just as bad as booze. Someone gave me a dozen cookies once and I had 2 and asked if it was like 20mg per cookie and proceeded to tell me it was 1g for the batch and I strapped myself in bed and watched F is for family. I remember seeing the show in 2.5D and my short term memory stopped at 10 seconds at a certain point where I would laugh at jokes and as I'm still laughing not remember the joke anymore. My face was sore from laughter. Who the fuck eats edibles and then waits 30 minutes and starts driving.

By the way, Brock Reiher's ban has finally been set to a duration of one week.
...For a post he made seven days ago, so does that mean he's gonna get unbanned in like a few hours, or the twenty-eighth?
Should be in a few hours. I don't know the exact time however as the ban system is a bit finicky in regards to time zones.
Meanwhile:
User banned (duration pending): History of hostility towards members and staff, posting private messages with other users as a personal attack
Called it! :ego
I'm going to pin this ScribbleD post to my new tab page and check it daily now. I'd have to check the Mod Admiral records but ten days is definitely up there at the longest a duration has been pending. Especially since both the only other two people in the kerfuffle not only had "mass" movements to undo their ban but are back posting on the site by now.

Do you guys think any ResetEra mods got E3 invites last year like the owner of the forum, who does not even posts on his own forum?
The admins and mods doing this for free really should reconsider if it’s worth it.
You’re basically giving away your time for free, to make someone else richer.

I just see the rules not applied uniformly. Example:
-Thread 1: Poster A calls Poster B a "fucking douchebag idiot".
Result: Poster A banned
-Thread 2: Poster C calls Poster D a "fucking douchebag idiot".
Result: No ban. No warning. Despite the post being reported. Poster C continues to namecall for several more pages.
The rules need to be clear, and followed up on without bias. I've noticed it a lot and for a while. It's only gotten worse.
Protected users probably reporting the shit out of that thread by now, look at all these posts made in bad faith.

So I’m at university. I’m an introvert, I don’t make friends easily. I don’t often share classes with the same people, and so it’s difficult to make a social base. But you try to be like, pleasant right? Like there’s no point in being a dick to people you don’t know well.
But I know a guy in one of my seminars, not well, but well enough, have him on WhatsApp. And he messaged me and he said he has to talk to me about something. Long and the short, the rest of the class, I don't know if it’s all of the class, have a group chat, that I wasn’t aware of, and they frequently make fun of me in it, like all the time. Someone even made some poor quality memes of me.
i don’t even know what I’m supposed to do about this. I’m 26 years old, I feel too old to go running to the teacher about being picked on. I don’t really want to confront them, cos that’s just embarrassing given they apparently think so little of me. And I really don’t want to do what I’ve done with college and access courses before and drop out and waste more of my fucking life sitting round doing nothing. But I’m not a machine, it does hurt my feelings, even if it’s a bunch of people I don’t know well.

I see the usual double standards and the list of protected, untouchable users is still a thing here. There is a certain group of moderators in this forum that should not be in any position of power, in any way, shape or form, two or three in particular. I have seen people get away scot-free with straight "FUCK YOU"'s, while others get banned immediately for "you are a piece of shit".
Seems there is no longer a good place for discussion on the Internet. You either get super Right-Wing shitholes like GAF, or extremely poor moderated and double-standard places like this. It's very disappointing, especially considering how great this place originally started.
You are mistaken comrade, this forum is not a platform for bigots espousing both sides doctrine. Please report to your nearest mod captain for re-education.

Strong edibles will make you higher than I think is possible than vaping. Like the THC is modified by the liver into a much stronger drug.
Seth Rogen will smoke a dozen blunts he rolls per day, but refuses to do edibles for this reason. Once you overdose with edibles you're locked in for 2 to 4 hours.

I’ve now been exposed to enough stoned drivers in-person, while driving, that I’ve revised my position: fuck stoned drivers. I had a stoned driver hit someone’s dog and then drive off.

I like how it is phrased:
“It has been pointed out that driving while under the influence of weed can still lead to a DUI”
Like the action of getting admittedly shitfaced by drinking and having edibles (for the first time) isn’t a factor, but rather a crime deemed committed by a technical interpretation of the law.
You see, ERA MODERATION (along with help from forum posters) determined his BAC level was within normal range so they did nothing wrong. Case closed, please stop hurting the feelings of the protected member.
How exactly they determined the BAC level through a computer screen? Who the fuck knows. Magic or some shit.

Unfortunately there's already documentation of bans on sites that seem to be obsessed with Reset Era (and honestly it's a little worrying that there's some kind of automatic datamining process keeping track of that not owned by Era)
That’s definitely a bit disturbing.
Tell me about it.
Which is why it hurt me, that the staff made that ban message with the little passive aggressive part at the end of it. For talking about me being on that bot.
It does strike me as odd there's this whole hush hush thing about keeping a lid on all these websites and users that try to doxx and track Resetera members. If the staff want to make a safe environment for people, it seems counterproductive to try and hide this away as "cross forum drama". it's not drama, it's harassment and stalking. Like, I probably don't have stalkers out there, but I 100% know plenty of people here are being doxxed, harassed, and even called. It's kind of scary how much the staff doesn't want people to know this.
Why would a user be harassed over their ban history? Wouldn't they simply report that to moderation as well?
Because people are horrible.
That's why the resetera banbot exists.

I'm still genuinely hurt by my banning when opening up about being afraid of being doxxed. And then, AND THEN. The staff fucking mock me publicly.
Umm. This was earlier in the year.
It was in the thread where one of those horrible chan sties got taken down. And the convo naturally veered into talking about the Reset banbot (an automated bot made by horrible people on other sites that logs and archives every single post that certain posters make to) a mod stepped in and told everone to stop talking about it, because it was deemed cross forum drama.
I was asleep at the time. So when i woke up i wanted to get how i felt about that shit off my chest. (which tbh i was afraid to do even that) So i quoted the official post acknowledging what was said, however i just wanted to say my piece. (i genuinely thought it was the right thing to do quote to mod post, to show i wasn't ignoring it) So they slapped my with a two week ban (i think) despite several posters after me ignoring the mod post
Which caused quite a few users in the thread to protest, so the staff changed the reason my banning few times, until they landed on the "previous infractions" chestnut (the "previous infraction" was a post that was a couple of weeks under being a year old) And in that lengthy mod post then last paragraph was a passive aggressive dig at me
I sent a message right after i got banned. In which i was very angry (as you might imagine) where i explained i was quoting the modpost in good faith, not being cheeky, or disrespectful.
I got a response days later. Pretty much ignoring what i wrote. With them saying i couldn't have missed the modpost because i quoted it. So this time more calmly. I explained to them i wasn't ignoring it, but quoting it, because i wanted to show i wasn't being disrespectful.
Never got a reply.
You wanted to ban me for that. Fine, i disagree but fine. But they didn't have to take the fucking swipe at me.
I'm gonna be completely honest @Shy, you just come off as someone really salty for having been banned many times.
TBH honest i am, to a degree. (especially when it comes to that one about my fears of being doxxed. They didn't have to do me like that) And because i genuinely feel they were out of order.
I don't need other people see my shit. Also the ones most likelt to use it to look at other people's history. Are the ones that should get fucking perm'd from here.
Which is why it hurt me, that the staff made that ban message with the little passive aggressive part at the end of it. For talking about me being on that bot.
One complaining about:
User Banned (2 weeks): ignoring the modpost, history of similar behavior
[STAFF]Now that members are aware of these sites, let's get back on topic and not pay attention to what other sites think of us.[/STAFF]
I honestly understand why you lot don't won't us to talk about it. But i just want to reply to these two posts.
I've gone *checks notes* more than a month without being banned. LOL. And i don't want to be put on the naughty step.
There are two ways you can interpret this:
1. Why are these people willfully debasing themselves, putting a shmuck like me on some weird pedestal of hatred. It's so sad. I pity them.
2. I am a glorious social justice warrior and bigots everywhere recoil at the sight of my fiery posts. Their hatred is proof I'm on the right track.
Why did you pick #1 when you could have picked #2?
See, that's why you're the Spider-Pig. 😄
Think of it like when you play an FPS, and you do so well the other person either rage quits or sends you hate mail out of jealousy. That's how you should interpret it, turn a negative into a positive, glass half full and all that.
LOL. No no i get that (even though i don't feel i ever posted anything worth being put on the damn VIP list on the bot) But it makes you very paranoid.
There have been fun topics in here that i wanted to post in. But then i remember i have to be careful about what i post, in case it can be used as a breadcrumb to doxx me. So i don't.
Not only in fun threads. Just in general on here, i've made a post, but just before i hit post reply, i delete it as i realised it could fuck me.
Tired of always looking over my shoulder. Ya know.

And lets not even get into the comment they made about my post history.
RLM's politics are a legitimate aspect of discussion in this thread. As it's part of TLJ Plinkett review. So again, i won't drop it

What is he on about doxxing and harassment? Seeing your anonymous Era handle's history is not doxxing unless it links to your real identity.
Having the history, would however, show that the guy has 9+ bans while others get permed after a few. That's not doxxing, its showing inconsistent moderation. It also shows when "history of histories" is bullshit.

What is this in response to? What happened?
REACTION THREADS ARE NOT ALLOWED :wag
-
Seeing prominent members recounting the grueling and traumatizing experience of being banned while never extending that sort of empathy when modwhining constantly is so tasty.
-
If I'm understanding Shy and RedMercury correctly, it would have been better for the safety of the forum that Ketkat had been permanently banned without any reason given and the moderators to have never spoken about it. And agitators like Kyuuji also been banned for dredging it up into public where harassment and doxxxing could occur.
Kinda like what happened to ScribbleD.
-
Now we know that Ketkat should have simply said she had been roofied by the still unknown acephobic moderator leading to those posts.
-
Simple accountability.
Or wanting to know who banned you so you can harass them for doing so.
It's pretty clear what side of the coin you're posting from.
There is nothing to gain from knowing who banned who other than to creating further hostility toward each other.
It's policy, not people that needs to be held to account. What rules are being used in an unfair manner, what instances are people being punished more than others who may be utilising them to get others in trouble.
Your idea will lead to there be no moderation at all because people will be afraid to actually enforce the rules as people *will* go for them no matter if the bans are justified or not.
As always, these threads talk about "transparency" and always turn into "why are you mean to me, I want to know who is mean to me".

Thanks forgot to check back in that thread, lots of quality content:
OP, I’m teaching first year history students at my country’s top university. Quite frankly your opening post was more articulate and grammatically complex than what most of those high functioning overachievers manage. You are greatly underselling your capacity for written articulation.
Have you given SSRIs/anxiolytics a shot yet? Zoloft can practically delete anxiety. Psychostimulants like concerta or adderall can work wonders for thinking and working memory as well.
Dude suggests people report and/or ignore posters who post transphobia if they think the moderators will do nothing about it, and consider leaving if they think the moderators are actively encouraging transphobic violence on the forum, thankfully he's banned for downplaying transphobia, TransEra thanks the moderators for keeping them safe from someone who is trying to victim blame by offering suggestions of things they could do themselves: https://www.resetera.com/threads/we-need-to-have-a-discussion-about-how-members-treat-other-members-on-this-site-and-among-other-issues.154572/post-26752618

Fuck the “I drive better when I’m stoned” type of people. I may have rolled my eyes about driving while stoned when I was younger, but the past 5 years of being exposed to constant stoned Uber and Lyft drivers has shown me that this is not the case. I’ve now been exposed to enough stoned drivers in-person, while driving, that I’ve revised my position: fuck stoned drivers. I had a stoned driver hit someone’s dog and then drive off.
Par for the course for humanity i'm afraid. I try to not let it get me down because I don't want to be constantly down.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/im-not-sure-what-to-do-about-my-mom-sister-regarding-the-topic-of-chick-fil-a.154889/
Just today, my dad offered to get me Chick-fil-A. When I asked him if there were any other options, he mentioned what was in the area, I said Whataburger, & he went along with it. Normally that should be the end of it. But when my mom & sister got into the mix, the topic of Chick-fil-A's bigoted views came into play, as that's the reason I avoid going there. My sister tried bringing up that they stopped making anti-LGBTQ+ donations, but I brought up the fact that they've made no commitment towards stopping such donations permanently. Then it became a big debate of whataboutisms (what about other restaurants like McDonalds & Wendy's donating to conservative causes, which I've since avoided). But what stuck out to me was my sister calling my view on Chick-fil-A "High & mighty" & my mom saying "You're not gay, so who cares?", both of which hit me hard. This also isn't the first time the two have expressed similar opinions on the topic.
I don't want to force my views down their throat, as me being stubborn was one of the reasons my ex & I broke up (there were other reasons if you recall that thread, though the primary one in retrospect was that she needed to focus on her studies, which I respected.....we're still friends, by the way). But my mom & sister being so nonchalant regarding Chick-fil-A's donation practices worries me. Is there something I can do without being a dick, or should I just put up with it? I don't want to go to the extreme & cut them out of my life over Chick-fil-A, as they're my family. But it just feels wrong that my own family is turning a blind eye to such matters. I'd appreciate any advice on how to handle this situation correctly.
I'm not feeling safe, the replies are telling him to just ignore it...
My wife is pansexual, was married to a woman for 8 years, was in marches, is a big pusher of equality and LGBTQ+ rights. To this day she had never stopped eating there. She says she wishes they would change their ways, but it's literally her favorite chicken of any place. 🤷🏼♂️
She's serious about "no chicken anywhere is better".
It's literally the one thing she won't give up.
Interesting but I'm still not feeling safe...
I'd just not eat there and if they eat it in front of you, I'd look at them with disgust the whole time. Then I'd tell them how disappointed I was in them.
Thanks Mercury Fred, hopefully this gets something going...
Just stop eating at all fast food places, that stuff will kill you.
No, no, I mean
"You're not gay."
"No, but I care about human rights."
They then get to scoff at the idea that it's a human rights issue, but they can't argue against it. So even if they disagree, they can't undermine your position, and you don't need to say anything else.
finally, thank god

One last thing regarding my previous post re: moderating boards for a long time breaks you down -- I think thats why the moderators on this (and other) sites should be rotated. Kind of like an election, but maybe not chosen by the board itself. At least a term limit. Being insulated too long warps perspective. When people become moderators, they're usually fresh and ready to help. It quickly becomes a job and you get disillusioned and even start loathing the rest of the board. Rotating mods would keep a fresh stream of people who haven't necessarily been broken down. Also, allowing people to remain in a position of authority for so long just naturally invites conflict.

I don't see necessarily why the forum should accomodate someone who has been banned, personally. And I say that as someone who has seen the ban screen several times. It actually takes time to make changes like not locking the board to those who are currently banned, and, were I in that position, would I really want to devote an unpaid afternoon to writing and testing code to satiate those who are objectively being punished? Particularly when there are other, more pressing things about the board that could be changed (like, please, please, PLEASE make embedding youtube links automatically create a link above the embed so I don't have to refresh the page when I get "video unavailable on this site" errors or whatever youtube calls them).
I thought Xenforos default settings were banned users can do everything like browse and even private message just fine by default.
They can even be specific forum banned, so if you're only a problem in, say, being a massive annoying xbot in gaming, you can still go be a virtue signalling cunt in the OT to get your modships.
AFAIK, era staff just decided to set everything to the most cunty settings possible

Something like that.

And as for the nothing personal. Mate i want to believe you. But that ban (and more importantly the message) about my fears of being Doxxed. Was personal, you guys didn't have to take a swipe at me in that.

I've gone *checks notes* more than a month without being banned. LOL. And i don't want to be put on the naughty step.
There are two ways you can interpret this:
1. Why are these people willfully debasing themselves, putting a shmuck like me on some weird pedestal of hatred. It's so sad. I pity them.
2. I am a glorious social justice warrior and bigots everywhere recoil at the sight of my fiery posts. Their hatred is proof I'm on the right track.
Why did you pick #1 when you could have picked #2?
See, that's why you're the Spider-Pig. 😄
Think of it like when you play an FPS, and you do so well the other person either rage quits or sends you hate mail out of jealousy. That's how you should interpret it, turn a negative into a positive, glass half full and all that.
LOL. No no i get that (even though i don't feel i ever posted anything worth being put on the damn VIP list on the bot) But it makes you very paranoid.
There have been fun topics in here that i wanted to post in. But then i remember i have to be careful about what i post, in case it can be used as a breadcrumb to doxx me. So i don't.
Not only in fun threads. Just in general on here, i've made a post, but just before i hit post reply, i delete it as i realised it could fuck me.

Does this guy even know what he's talking about here? Pretty sure GAF is incorporated as well.
He always has these pseudo know it all takes.
Yes, GAF is and has been an LLC for some time. It gets better though:
Then oh well, I guess. The ownership or finance of the site honestly don't bother or concern me personally.
That said, I'm inherently and fundamentally for the idea that a business can fail without ruining a person financially. Ideally, you want people to be productive members of society, and that entails being able to produce money unfortunately. Letting something fail without ruining someone for the rest of their life lets them become productive members of society again the future. So ResetEra being an LLC is just natural to me. I own my own incorporated LLC, for example (I own 90% stake in the company).
edit: lol, this is good enough Kara should pop in the garbage thread
The hope is that the company is self sufficient, not being paid for out of the pocket of the site owner. ResetEra has ad revenue, hopefully that revenue is the thing that is supporting the site, and not some Admin paying for the site with money from another job. The idea is that the stake owners for the company are basically employees. The company makes money, and they pay the stake owners a salary. There should also be a fundamental division of power, like the CEO should not be the person writing checks, for this very reason. I'd assume ResetEra isn't making bank to the tune where the site owners are actually getting paid.
Long story short, being an LLC basically makes the company able to be it's own financial entity. Like, completely divorced from the finances of the site owner. An LLC should be making it's own money, not being propped up by the the employees.
Your example is not what the purpose of an LLC is for. An LLC isn't about protecting the site if it's gets in financial trouble, or allowing for transfer of ownership. It's about shielding the company from the site owner's financial trouble. I.e. if the site owner went broke, the site does not. It's a two way street, though, if the site is unprofitable and can't be sustained, the debt collection doesn't pass off to the site owners either. They don't get to raid the Admin's bank accounts to find money to pay for outstanding bills regarding the site.
If the site is unprofitable and can't support itself, there's nothing that can be done. Sometimes businesses fail, it's the way the world works.

ERA's collective knowledge about business is thoroughly embarrassing. You see it more on the gaming side since there is more context and business cases in gaming.

I think it's good for the community for mods to be active in posting, it shows there's not just some shadowy cabal who you don't know who they are or anything, and so going back to transparency that's a good thing.
lol, spending all that time sucking up to 2 mods, and only being left with the weakest horse in the race now

Deontay Wilder's one punch power is just insane. I watched the Wilder v Ortiz 2 fight, and Ortiz pretty much bossed the fight up until the 7th round. Won every round pretty much. Wilder hardly threw a punch. Then just one punch. One fucking punch by wilder and it is over. You literally have to have the perfect fight where Wilder's right hand doesn't hit you once. Because if it does it's game over.

Looks like it has more to do with Blue Story, a movie about gang violence that has a scene involving a machete fight. It has been banned from the cinema and ban-happy Era is not pleased.
Please do not blame a black film for gang violence
Can't believe they banned blue story from all their cinemas. Straight up racism.

Alright, I’ve been curious about the damage years of drug and alcohol abuse have done to my memory.
I’m 38 years old: am I supposed to be able to remember the names of teachers I had during my schooling at this point?
-
It’s fucked up, The few I can remember are the ones that left an intensely negative impression on me. This is how you know there is no good god in this universe, and if you think there is you are a pathetic fool.
-
I don't remember most of my teachers either, from elementary through university. No substance abuse, so that's not necessary.
I still clearly remember a very enthusiastic math teacher (who I must have been a disappointement to) and a physics teacher who was tormented by students because we sensed his weakness or something. He was in his sixties and retired before I started secondary education. One time, half the class chanted some song, complete with baging on tables and everything.
I can picture a few more, but I cannot for the life of me remember their names.

Between this and the lack of merchandise available right after the reveal, does Disney not understand what it has on its hands here? Baby Yoda alone is a billion dollar business. I mentioned Baby Yoda to my mom last night and I kid you not, she had tears of love welling in her eyes at the very thought. More than I’ve ever seen when she looks at me.
Also, can you copyright a GIF? I know it’s their IP but I’ve never heard of a copyright claim against a GIF.
What the fuck is wrong with people? Have we been this fucked up for generations? Our country needs less affordable healthcare, not more.

Guys I am on your side. It could be any issue from abortion (I am pro choice) to trans rights (I am for full and equal human rights for all humans). But I feel like we aren’t allowed to interrogate the opposing argument, because any time it comes up it is immediately banned. That isn’t healthy if you’re trying to understand the situation in the real world.
I mean, he's not wrong with any of this.
Let's see what Professor Beef thinks of this...
it's not the job of the oppressed to teach the oppressors
if some dumbdick says something idiotic and hateful about minority groups, even if phrased to make it seem like they're "tRYiNg tO HaVe a DiScUsSiOn," then that shit shouldn't be entertained. not all discussion is worth wasting energy on, and it's laughable that someone would complain that they can't do it on this site.
Right. Ok. Sure. Great discussion forum you've got there Cereal.
Here's a tip. If you want a functioning video game discussion site, ban all of the "militant black dudes" and trans activists, ban all of poliGAF, quarantine political discussion to a separate board and let the people who are there to discuss video games do so without fear of being banned for some ridiculous transgression against the groupthink.
If you have no interest in being a video game discussion board (and your personal post history across both NeoGAF and your own personal Frankenstein's monster suggests this is the case), then grow a set of balls, stop exploiting the capital G Gamers and delete the gaming board.

This bit of intersectionality has been one of the hardest weeks I as an individual have had to deal with in my life. Right now I'm sitting in my car with a cry-headache trying to leave to go to my brother's house. I barely have the energy.
It's been interesting to see both sides of the spectrum, where on one end my input in threads concerning black representation and issues is valuable because I can speak from life experience and knowledge, and then on the other end I get called a cop with all of the pain and irony that entails simply because I was the fool who said "yes" to volunteering.
I have simultaneously felt valued and valueless throughout this endeavor, and it's made me question whether or not I'm even a good person. I don't know how to parse the emotional toll, other than to just ignore it and make do with what I have and serve the community with the powe rand knowledge I myself have. Because I want this place to succeed. But I admit, my emotions have been all over the place.
That's all. I figured the most appropriate thread to open up in would be this one. To anyone who has given me and the other staff members a kind word, thank you. To anyone else who is dissatisfied with our performance: I understand, and I still apologize. Just remember we are human too.
I will be taking a break. I'm not leaving the forum, or my position, but I think I've exhausted myself to the point where my basic mental and even physical faculties are beginning to degrade. Continuing in my state right now is not fair to myself or to the people who want better.
I don't know how long it'll be either. I guess just long enough to bounce back. I love you guys. See you later!

Nepenthe got dunked on so hard and thoroughly in that roofie thread that she decided to take a "hiatus." Don't really understand why these people think them being online janitors on a small to medium sized forum is so hard and taxing to their psyche and that we plebs couldn't possibly understand their daily plight. No one's forcing you to be a mod, and 95% of your "issues" would be solved if you all just follow you own TOS and apply it to everyone evenly. Playing favorites for certain cliques and not others is why you're in this mess with your audience.
Also notice that she says all the spiel about how hard it is for her as a mod and yet made a point to say she's not resigning her modship despite going on a hiatus. Apparently being an online jannie supersedes her mental health.

I'd say if you find yourself being that worked up about whats being posted on RE, you need to go there less and less. Like divide the time you're on RE for a day in half. Use that time to read, play a game, do some work, exercise, whatever. And every couple of months, divide again, until you basically use RE as a glorified news/games aggregate and are done browsing in 5 minutes a day. Because surrounding yourself online with miserable people who are bitter that life isn't going their way, isn't going to make yours any better. It will just drag you down too.
If Trump gets reelected I don't think RE will even survive a year after honestly. They already seem that discontent.

I’m trying to update the old neoGaf slogan for ResetEra in light of recent developments. Does anyone want to see if they can do better than me?
Original:
“NeoGAF is a nexus of hardcore gamers, enthusiast press, and video game industry developers and publishers.”

“ResetEra is a nexus of hardcore acephobes, DUI enthusiasts, and a scant few video game industry developers and publishers with longstanding internet addiction issues.”
FACT CHECK: https://www.resetera.com/threads/general-guide-to-resetera.9777/
Since its founding in late 2017, ResetEra has been an inviting bonfire at the crossroads of the gaming industry. Our goal is to provide a modern platform where enthusiasts and industry professionals alike will want to talk about all kinds of video games -- and everything else under the sun. Safeguarded by technology, a vigilant staff, and some of the toughest registration screening of any public forum, ResetEra has been able to cultivate a highly active and passionate community while keeping most trolls and bad actors off of the site.
Today ResetEra is the most popular independent gaming forum on the internet as measured by traffic. It is also an inclusive space that proudly welcomes members of every gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. Respect and decency towards each other, regardless of background, is nonnegotiable. Posters are expected to enter discussions in good faith.

"can we look to other forums and learn from their moderation tactics" :brain

"Inviting bonfire" :lol

An underrated part of this ongoing ACES RISE UP event has been how many prominent members have both literally and essentially said that they don't use the report feature because its feedback isn't immediate, especially in terms of someone getting banned immediately, but instead choose to publicly bitch on the forum and Discord in hopes that the mods will see it.
A lot of things make more sense when dudes out here quoting posts and refreshing all like :rage until they see "User banned (duration pending)" finally.
-
I feel the only reason why she is not resigning is because she doesn’t want the forum to openly bitch about her.

huh, more moderators stepped down than I noticed earlier:
Dr. Monkey, half-transphobic moderator Fiction (we love you more than your brother!), K.Jack, Ron Paul (they finally noticed I guess) all joined Volimar, Royalan and ZhugeEx this month.
wait, so... this leaves... morrigan as the sanest mod left on the staff?
e: no, Dusk Golem still staff.
everyone else: trash or nobodies.
Morrigan, sane? Wasn't she the one who tried to ban the word "cunt"? Or was that someone else?

ResetEra has been an inviting tirefire for marginalized people and the trolls who imitate them to gaslight the fuck out of anyone crossing the minefield that is our discussion forums. Imagine a classic sitcom set up where siblings share a room and have a fight, then one draws a line to separate their territory, but it makes the other one's exit from the room impossible.

So I decide to take a chance, admittedly a little messy due to not having had a chance to find a perfect ResetERA.com post, but it is in the middle of the night, so I figured that was fine. Took one with people not understanding an LLC.
His response? "Am I supposed to find this interesting?"
I admitted to him I hadn't really tried to find something great in quite awhile, and then he said. "Not cool. Well, bye."
And I'm just like, "Wait, wait, there's only so much on ResetERA.com to work with, remember?", as I had in the earlier conversation.
He responds to me: "You need a struggle session. Sorry."
And...
I don't know.
Between how many people don't like my posts. How many people find it incredibly difficult to like every single post I've ever made due to me being very socially inept and having difficulty relating and discussing topics with people... I've been ghosted so many damn times in my life that it's hard to tell you how often it's happened. I won't lie some of it's on me, but a lot of times, it's just because of my personality, my communication skills, my behavior, and among other things, some of these which I can't control.

User Banned (Duration Pending): Xenophobia
These are predominantly young incel men arriving mostly from 4chan, reddit, NeoNaziGAF, 8chan, Facebook and many other alt-right and white supremacist forums. ResetERA.com is a forum of about 10.5, hundred people with an aging, decreasing population. By ResetERA.com standards, 600-700 people is one new alt-right thread daily. It's also about 250k people per year, equal to one ResetERA.com Hangout of considerable size. At this rate it's very likely that in less than 20 years ResetERA.com, which is a welcoming bonfire, could be another alt-right terrorist forum.
Next to the small Hangout that I live in there is a junior poster hospitality center. In the last few years the crime rates have skyrocketed. The place that I grew up is now pretty much a Wild West where anything goes, moderator presence in non-existent or even worse, useless. Last week the community residents got together to discuss and agreed to fund and hire a private security firm to police the town streets because the ResetERA.com staff can't be bothered. It's obvious that Cerium and the forum elite is very fond of what is happening, hoping that this will help solve ResetERA.com's ageing problem and increase the population/consumer base while providing below poverty-line poster salaries.
I've never voted for the right, I am an atheist and a vegan. I try to show compassion for the hardships of other people. But is it wrong to not wish to live in an alt-right shithole in many of which I would duration pendinged or permabanned for being black and gay?
User Banned (permanent): Xenophobia
This is not the best forum to post this, OP. I may get banned for saying this, but it's not wrong to be concerned about a huge influx of bad faith posters, especially ones that have different beliefs or lifestyle than what your forum is accustomed to.

This is amazing:
I was a mod, then an admin, and was an everyday staff member for 18 months. I retired in September. My average daily availability was around ten hours a day. I did it for as long as I could. The work here is the hardest thing I ever did.
When I started, I thought I would do it forever. I wanted to be a permanent volunteer. A fixture, even, for the community I loved. This was my home, and these were my people, and without this forum I would have nowhere else to go. The outside internet is a horrible and inhospitable place. Contributing to the maintenance and safety of this community and its members gave me immense satisfaction. It meant so much to me. This is something I've said many times here. I said it often because I never wanted anyone to doubt it. People still did, but it was still true and it still is.
How things were going on the forum dictated my entire life. Would I eat? Would I sleep? Would I cancel my plans? Would I call in sick to work? Would I talk to my wife that night? My existing blood pressure problems began to agitate and worsen. I developed insomnia because I'd be afraid to go to sleep. I went on emergency health hiatus before my wedding. I couldn't continue to do something that had such a dramatic impact on my life that had nothing to do with my family. I could have kept going if I was stronger. But I wasn't. I had so much going on and something had to go. I retired due to my deteriorated condition and how much worse I would get if I didn't make a change.
It ultimately was not a moment too soon. My father in law starts chemo on Tuesday.
I know exactly how much time and emotion it consumes to do this kind of work. It takes bravery. It takes sacrifice. It takes selflessness and compassion. It is prideless work. There is no such thing as a professional moderator. Nobody has the breadth of knowledge and context to address every single topic or situation with flawless judgment. We were just people, members of the community, trying their best for the benefit of everyone here. No decision is ever perfect, no situation is ever the same as one before it, and it never stops. However hard something hits you, or however long it took to resolve, the forum never stops. People always need you. There is always something happening somewhere. Doing that together for so long with so many people I cared so much about was one of the most enriching experiences of my life. But it was never, ever easy.
I have nothing but love and respect for the staff who keep trying, and keep working, and keep believing that a forum like ours must exist. A forum like this cannot exist without people like them. I never knew how much danger I would put myself in to help a stranger. I never knew how far I would go to serve people who don't know me. I never realized how much of myself I would give up in pursuit of an ideal. I don't regret a minute of it, but I couldn't do it anymore. The work people put in here, to me, is nothing short of heroism.
As a community, mod or member, we must love each other. We are all we have. If we cannot love each other, and trust each other, and believe in each other and why we are here, we will fail.
Thank you to everyone on staff who dedicates so much of their free time in pursuit of a better website. Thank you too to the members who wade in to topics that hurt them or cause them stress just to make reports and offer insight to situations as they develop. The difference between moderator and member is thinner than some think. All mods were members once. Many mods are now members again. So please have faith and be kind. We are all in this together.

With 2 mods stepping down and 1 taking an indefinite hiatus, it makes me think that there is going to be a breaking point where there are only a few mods that cannot feasibly keep up with everything. I guess I'm wondering if there are plans to add more mods or not.

I am a black woman. I am also a moderator.
This bit of intersectionality has been one of the hardest weeks I as an individual have had to deal with in my life. Right now I'm sitting in my car with a cry-headache trying to leave to go to my brother's house. I barely have the energy.
It's been interesting to see both sides of the spectrum, where on one end my input in threads concerning black representation and issues is valuable because I can speak from life experience and knowledge, and then on the other end I get called a cop with all of the pain and irony that entails simply because I was the fool who said "yes" to volunteering.
I have simultaneously felt valued and valueless throughout this endeavor, and it's made me question whether or not I'm even a good person. I don't know how to parse the emotional toll, other than to just ignore it and make do with what I have and serve the community with the powe rand knowledge I myself have. Because I want this place to succeed. But I admit, my emotions have been all over the place.
That's all. I figured the most appropriate thread to open up in would be this one. To anyone who has given me and the other staff members a kind word, thank you. To anyone else who is dissatisfied with our performance: I understand, and I still apologize. Just remember we are human too.
I will be taking a break. I'm not leaving the forum, or my position, but I think I've exhausted myself to the point where my basic mental and even physical faculties are beginning to degrade. Continuing in my state right now is not fair to myself or to the people who want better.
I don't know how long it'll be either. I guess just long enough to bounce back. I love you guys. See you later!

I know Nepenthe, you know Nepenthe, anyone who knows her knows she's a good person and yet she's left in a spot where she's even questioning that, it's awful. It's also shitty for trans people or any other minority to feel the way they feel here, that is not how things should be. I don't have the answer beyond there needs to be some sort of communication without everyone going back to their corners.

I'm just letting them know their work doesn't go unappreciated. What's wrong with that? Some people just want to see this place burn to the ground.
Your shit ain't as slick as you think it is tbh. I was tempted to keep quiet because this is an obvious bait/trap thread (btw, real cute putting that "the majority here appreciate you", because if there's anything queer posters, posters of color etc like being reminded of, it's that we're The Minority), but then you had to insert this shit which is just blatantly "Minorities with valid concerns and criticisms? Couldn't possibly exist, people just want to see this place burn to the ground" and it's fucking sickening to see us get downplayed and dehumanized to that regard so casually. Not just here and now but anytime we have something to say. If you want me being silent about it like you clearly want me and everyone else being silent about everything else that Bothers You, please spare us the time and outright say that you want us banned. At least that's honest
WTF is this?

I've heard multiple site staff members, past and present, say that they want this forum to be a safe space for minorities. I believe them when they say that. But I don't think this can be a safe space when the burden of informing and educating fuckwits who may or may not be sincere constantly falls on said minorities.
Every day there is a thread about sexual assault or police brutality or a trans person being thrown out of a bathroom or a gay couple being denied wedding reception services or a Muslim banned from traveling in the US, and every day those threads get filled with idiots who don't get the fucking issue, and every day the overriding sentiment among members of the affected groups is that they're sick and tired of having to explain and justify their existence to these idiots who don't get the issue or understand the anger. I believe the reason this keeps happening is because the site staff is too lenient as it pertains to these kinds of issues. They seem to believe that people should be given a chance to correct and advance their stunted or backwards attitudes on these issues, so they dish out temporary punishments in the form of warnings and one month bans. I don't believe this should be the place for correcting these attitudes. I think this should be the place where you either come with the correct attitude or get the fuck out.
Oh, you can manage to simultaneously participate in three fantasy football leagues at once but you can't comprehend the statistical improbability of a woman lying about being sexually assaulted? You can memorize ten-hit combos for a dozen Tekken characters but you don't understand the effects of hormone treatment on bone and muscle density on trans athletes? You can follow the convoluted as fuck Kingdom Hearts story line but you don't get what it actually means when people say fuck all cops? You lying pieces of shit.
Warnings and one month bans are kiddie punishments for kiddie shit. Give those to people who port beg or whine about the Epic Game Store or whatever the fuck trivial shit that doesn't really matter. When somebody comes into a thread on some all lives matter shit or talking about they're not comfortable sharing a bathroom with a trans person - six months for the first ban. Second ban for a similar offense is permanent. If they claim to just be asking questions or trying to have an honest debate, they can type those questions into Google and find their answers there during their time off from the forum, or they can go back to jacking off to whatever Atelier fantasy bullshit with their Dorito crusted hands. The site staff needs to be swift and decisive with the punishments and stop trying to balance civility against justice. And if the worry is that people will be afraid to say anything in those topics with harsher moderation, good - more of you motherfuckers need to learn to shut up about certain things and just listen.
Site staff: You do a thankless job, you do it for free, and you're constantly getting shit for it by the people you're trying to serve. I imagine you're often incredibly frustrated by what goes on here. I think a solution for your benefit and the benefit of these minority groups is to stop wasting time trying to discern bad faith actors from sincere ignorance and actually try create a real safe space for once. If these suggestions sound ridiculous or draconian or whatever, so what; all these minority groups have had to learn lessons about what they can and can't do, where they can and can't go, what they can and can't have in the world. The bigoted fuckheads can take that lesson too and realize everything ain't for them either. There are other forums they can enjoy where they can say whatever the fuck the want free of reprisal.

Sure thing. I'll expand on that thought a bit more in response to another post below.
+++++++++++
You're welcome. Ultimately, the battle for each individual person's immortal soul is not in the head so much (mentally) as it is in the heart (spiritually).
Say for instance a person has not decided to establish a eternal relationship with (the biblical) God. The bible says no one that is unsaved decides on their own to go looking for Him. That is to say, this person is not waking up one morning and thinking on their own, "You know, I honestly want to find God for a relationship with Him." and then goes out to try to find where God is at for that relationship to begin.
So, for a person to do that on their own (with no urging from God whatsoever) would be the ultimate good deed in their life (pure goodness is described in the bible as being"holy"), but all of us are completely incapable of doing that without Him because of the sin in our hearts (Psalm 14:2-3):
Romans 3:11-12 echoes that conclusion:
This is why God has to come to us, not the other way around. After defying God the Father's specific warning in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve tried to hide from Him (Genesis 3:9). The whole scenario supports this main point perfectly... because of our sin, we don't go looking for God, we instead hide from Him as best we can.
In modern times, we hide from Him by immersing ourselves oftentimes even deeper into sin: alcohol/drugs, illicit relationships with other people, criminal activity, spritually lazy distractions like video games/TV shows/sports, etc. (if we prioritize them over Him), pride-filled vanity pursuits, emphasizing success/money/etc. over everything in life, and on and on.
So just like Adam and Eve, not only do the sinful people of any era or geographic location NOT go searching for God on their own, they run away from Him. However, the good news is that just as God still loved His children in Eden so much that He went out to search for them (Genesis 3:9), the Lord is pursuing each and every sinner that is still alive today with all of His heart to save them from eternal damnation brought on by their sin. Jesus said so Himself in John 6:44 and Luke 19:10:
How does Jesus do this? He doesn't solely come to our mind to merely reason it all out with us. That method is insufficient. The mind will entertain the temptations from Satan to consider false interpretations of Christianity, embrace false religions altogether, or reject God outright by saying He doesn't exist.
That's the best that the human mind that is corrupted by sin can do on its own. The deeper, more true connection between God and us is, again, through the heart. A stirring in the heart that begins with a sincere belief in Him after He first comes to each individual person in His desire for that relationship.
Jesus said in Revelation 3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me”. Jesus is talking about the door to your heart that you open with belief.
He will not force His way in, but will politely (and throughout one's relatively short life, persistently) continue to knock in hopes that you will *choose* to let Him in. The Holy Spirit carries out this activity on His behalf. If you do accept the Lord, your heart is transformed to be one with Jesus forever, and the two of you will dine with one another as the verse explains.
Dine on what? This is not a physical relationship that dines on earthly food, but through the heart it is an eternally spiritual relationship that dines on spiritual food: the word of God. As I said above in my first post, the real, eternal "you" is not the physical body, but the life that resides inside of it.
With the nourishment of spiritual food flowing inside, the real "you" has the fuel to grow spiritually. The spiritual growth begins initially here on earth once a relationship with Jesus is established in the heart, and ultimately continues forever in heaven. One of the most famous quotes from Jesus encounter with the devil when He refutes one of several temptations illustrates this principal (Matthew 4:4):

The idea that God is punishing a person who does not choose to have a relationship with Him is not what the bible is describing. Instead, it goes like this:
- God evaluated the universe He created and everything in it at that time (before humans chose to sin). His conclusion was that everything was either individually "good" or altogether "very good" (Genesis 1). Nothing bad existed in the universe or on earth at that time. Sinful choices of mankind (starting with Adam and Eve) corrupted everything good that was created. Every physical aspect of the universe, every different type of human emotion and intellect, even the very nature of the soul itself, is tainted by sin in some way. This is why we have to deal with "natural disasters, illness, infant mortality, etc."... our collective choice to sin brought those misfortunes upon us, not Him.
- With that said, everything good that still remains comes from God (James 1:17). Not only external, physical things of His creation (water, the breath of life, the components of effective medicine/healing technology, many kinds of talents in the arts and other areas of skill and ability, etc), but this also includes the internal moral compass of what is good that everyone was born with that the person can choose to follow, to ignore, or to defy. This understanding is brought to the person's attention via the Holy Spirit, aka a "good conscience" (John 16:7-8), who also makes the case for Christ in an unrepentant sinner's heart (John 15:26). The "bad conscience" is wrought with temptation that is brought into your mind by Satan (Matthew 6:13).
- God stated the consequence for defying Him: death, which initially meant an infinite life in a perfect universe (untainted by sin at the time) was no longer possible. This was to be followed by death in the form of an eternal separation from Him after the physical death, which is said to be burning in the lake of fire forever (the absence of anything good since God is no longer around them).
- No one in and of themselves is "good" due to their sinful choices to defy their Creator once temptation is brought to their attention. Not Adam or Eve, not you, not me, not MLK, not Jesus' mother, not the Dali Lama, not the Pope, not Noah, not Moses, not the apostles Peter or Paul...no one is good, no not one (Romans 3:10-12 and Isaiah 64:6).
- God the Father cannot be around sin. Heaven is where He resides and sin cannot enter that place. Why? For one, the pure holiness (perfect goodness) of the Father in heaven makes it impossible for sin to exist in His presence. Also, wherever sin exists, it taints everything and everyone with evil and corruption - no exceptions. Heaven would become just as bad as the universe is now if sin were allowed inside of it, filled with sorrow and anguish and hate and wickedness and perversion and more.
- You yourself believe it would be wonderful if there were no more "natural disasters, illness, infant mortality, etc.". Me too! That's in great part why I am looking forward to when I get to heaven (after God's plan for me here on earth has ended). It will be the place where not one iota of "bad" or death will ever exist ever again (Revelations 21:4). God has made this freely available to everyone who will then be able to be forever in the presence of the Lord (1 John 3:2).
- No one who makes it to heaven (by choosing to believe in their Creator) gets in by any list of good deeds they accomplished on earth. Entry is a free gift for whoever wants it. They affirm that they want it by believing in He who is giving salvation away. Only by coming forward to God the Father with the righteousness of Jesus Christ representing them (instead of their own righteousness) can one enter into heaven (Romans 10:9–10).
Therefore, the ones that wind up in hell have only themselves to blame and not God. All of them chose not to have a relationship with the Lord, and hell is the only place where that choice can sadly be honored (God will not force you to choose Him over the love of sin).
Everyone innately knows enough about right and wrong (whether they've heard of Jesus and the bible or not) to agree they have no defense of ignorance against His judgement for many of the sins they chose to commit. Not one of us can claim that we have never lied, that we have never cheated, that we have ever acted out in anger towards another, and that we have spent our lives defying our Creator. This includes sins of wrongdoing, sins of evil words coming from our mouths, or sins of intentionally developed thoughts (Mark 7:20-23) that we know are wrong in God's eyes.
With that in mind, He could have carried out the sentence on any of us at any time as a result. However, in His grace and mercy God provided an escape from eternal condemnation through the work of His Son on the cross and subsequent resurrection.
All a person has to do is accept that pardon since the price for their sin was paid if they want it. If you choose not to believe, how can you say that He is being unfair? You would simply receive what you chose to embrace instead: to be eternally separated from the only source of good in existence (the presence of God). If you don't agree to let Jesus pay for your sins, you will pay for it yourself.
With the absence of a rejected good God for eternity, one is by definition subjected to the absence of anything good forever and ever, which is horrifically bad beyond what any comprehensive description can convey. Still, it is through the bible that God warns against going to the lake of fire where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matthew 13:42) and utter darkness (Matthew 22:13).
This is no game; this is your eternity.

To the main point of objection, you are not fully aware of what you ask in your desire for everyone to obtain the "truth" that we all "deserve" when defending Adam and Eve's sin of eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge that was forbidden to them.
Since you say you are familiar with the narratives in the bible, think about it for a bit. Firstly, God stated that defying Him would bring death into their lives (Genesis 2:16-17). Death wasn't present before then, so how is the introduction of the first death (the soul separating from the physical body, Hebrews 9:27) and later the second death (the soul eternally separated from God, Revelation 21:8) an improvement over their initial existence of peaceful bliss? It clearly was not, and it also shows that God told them the truth (with His awareness of how bad things would become for mankind), so no one could claim either ignorance of the law, or accuse Him of malfeasance.
Next, please note that Satan told Eve (who later passed the lie to Adam) that God was wrong and they wouldn't die if they defied Him (Genesis 3:4). That turned out not to be true, since an earthly death is obviously part of our physical timeline directly because of their terrible choice, and a spiritual death is what hangs over every person's head because of sin unless we believe the fact that Jesus paid for our debt with His own life.
So the question then is, what productive knowledge did they gain after defying God? There isn't an immediately obvious positive gain after they sinned from their standpoint since the bible doesn't state that Adam and Eve were happier, enjoyed life more abundantly, or had a deeper closeness with each other and God respectively. It doesn't even say that the skies were sunnier, their relationship with nature improved, that they became smarter and healthier, or that work became easier.
In fact, the opposite happens in every single one of these points (and a lot more). The woman was cursed to endure a painful labor to produce children and be subjected to a naturally more subservient relationship with her husband. The man was cursed to toil the earth to get it to produce anything worthwhile, and a physical death would eventually take him out. (Genesis 3:16-19).
Nature and the universe itself was scarred by sin in that destruction, pestilence, famine, drought, earthquakes, fire storms, disease, etc. were introduced into existence. Internally into humanity's heart came hate, strife, violence, wars, agony, misery and perversion.
So Adam and Eve did not celebrate their newfound knowledge of evil even before His judgements against them were passed down. Instead, they ran and hid from God because of guilt and shame, and they ultimately suffered (internally and externally) for the rest of their years on the earth as He had explained they would.
Ever since that awful moment in Eden, people since then have been trying to get back to that Utopian way of life. We try to delay death, predict and protect against natural disasters, impose laws to control deviant human behavior and fight in wars for various reasons. Any and all of this is a bandaid for worldwide peace and happiness at best, and moving us in the opposite direction at worse.
The problem is that sin is a constant roadblock as it prevents many from reuniting with God (through their choice to avoid Him) who is the only source of anything truly "good" like peace, love, joy, and eternal life. So that discounts any value in knowledge that they (we) were conned by Satan into obtaining.
Carrying the point further, like a caring mom and dad it's not hard to think that God doesn't believe we need to experience the terribleness of sin in order to be complete people. What parent would reason to themselves, "Well, I already told my twelve year old that smoking crack is bad for her, but let me drop her off with strangers at a notorious crack house for summer vacation so she can come into that knowledge for herself."
That would be insane. Absolutely nothing good came to Adam and Eve (and us by extension) from listening to Satan's lie about obtaining "knowledge". Even sex wasn't forbidden to them since they were told to reproduce (Genesis 1:28).
Did they technically know more in general? About all things evil, yes, but they would have been better off simply trusting what God already knew about evil. They trusted the devil instead, and a price continues to be paid. So Jesus was correct when He said in John 10:10, which says in part:
This is all he does. To this day, Satan continues to tempt mankind with sin so that He can steal your love, peace, and joy (like he did with Adam and Eve), so he can kill every life that comes into existence (like he eventually did with Adam and Eve) and so he can destroy any truly good things in your life that comes from God, including attacking the opportunity for salvation (like he tried but failed to do with Adam and Eve).
Thankfully, Jesus provided a second half to the verse above:
Put Adam and Eve's misadventure aside for a moment. Today, here and now, are people who made the same awful choice that they did in that they gave in to the evil one's temptations. The bible doesn't say you will be condemned for doing that; you are already condemned (John 3:18). The bible doesn't say that you will be an enemy of God without His righteousness in your heart, you are already His enemy (James 4:4).
But due to His love, grace, patience and mercy, you still have his breath in your lungs to choose wisely while your eternal judgement is temporarily put on hold. In practicing what He preached in the sermon on the mount, Jesus loves His enemies (Matthew 5:44). That is the only reason why some of you still have the choice to accept an eternal freedom from the presence of sin over the choice of damnation due to the penalty of sin by wanting to be separate from your Creator.
The bible urges over and over (i.e., parts of Psalm 95:7-8) not to wait to respond to the Holy Spirit knocking on the door of your heart, but to instead accept the free gift of salvation today:

Heh, one of my all time favorite tales as a kid was a really cool unauthorized spin-off of "Through the Looking Glass". The 1947 short story is called "Mimsy Were the Borogroves" by Lewis Padgett, and it kinda touches on the point that you are making at the end (though you can skip the terrible movie version that came out a few years ago). :-)
+++++++++++
I briefly addressed a similar claim in my first post, but that's not something we would ever had to worry about. God's is sovereign, and He will accomplish His plans to maximize the number of those who choose to come into salvation over the course of human history whether we decide to join with Him or fight against Him.
God's Plan A for humanity (John 3:16) is still in effect: to establish a two-way, loving relationship with whomever will choose to believe in Him (eternal life in heaven), and to sadly acquiesce to the choice of those who reject Him (eternal separation in hell).
How that plan plays out for our own, individual lives is up to us, but either choice won't prevent Him from moving his plans forward for all of mankind across the world and throughout the ages. He does it by his command because his word is that powerful (Isaiah 55:11):
Two examples...
In the book of Jonah, God had declared a judgement on the city of Ninevah in that they would be destroyed within 40 days because of their evil ways after Jonah finally delivered this message to them (he was initially delayed due to a self-inflicted set back). Though God was fully prepared to follow through on that judgement, He ultimately did not destroy those people because Ninevah citizens from the king on down repented (changed their hearts towards God).
So yes, God has various ways to adjust specific activity depending on what we choose to do (individually and collectively), but the ultimate Plan A was obviously still in effect as evidenced by His mercy in this instance. Sadly, once this generation died out, the future generations went back to their wicked ways and were ultimately destroyed 120 years later, but the blessing of eternal life for the initial generation will last forever.
The second example is one of the most eye-opening passages I've read in the bible... the Lord once ventured out into the wilderness in order to kill Moses who was camping with his wife (Exodus 4:24-26). The reason why is that at the time Moses was heading back to Egypt in order to confront Pharaoh and free the Hebrew slaves, but due to Moses giving in to his non-Jewish wife's decision not to allow their son be circumcised as Jewish boys were required, he was unfit to eventually bring God's Law (the commandments) to the Hebrews and be God's spokesperson if he couldn't follow the main laws himself. As the passage shows, eventually the wife reluctantly relented, so Moses' life was spared.
How different would history had been had Moses been killed? He still would've gone to heaven for his faith in God, but what about the Hebrews in captivity in Egypt? Simple - God would've raised up another (obedient) servant in his place. For all we know, maybe Moses was already the second or third choice because of, well, reasons.
In the end, The Lord's primary plan always moves forward whether we choose to be in or out.
+++++++++++
No, that would not have been an issue at all.
As I referenced in my first post, the bible said God wanted salvation for everyone (2 Peter 3:9 and 1 Timothy 2:3-4, among others) , and that hell was enlarged to accommodate people who died in their sins (Isaiah 5:14-15) since it was originally built only for the devil and his demons (Matthew 25:41).
We can take these perspectives to assume that the original plan for Adam and Eve to "be fruitful and multiply" (had they not succumbed to the temptation of sin) would not have encountered any types of problems such as the one you describe (running out of room).
Even from what we do know of life on the corrupted world we live in right now, things are not nearly as cramped (space-wise) on this earth as you might think. Consider the fact that New York City is the most crowded city in the U.S. It has around 8,398,748 citizens who are poured out over about 303 square miles of land. This means that about 27,719 citizens live in each square mile of the city.
Compare that to this crazy statistic... if the state of Texas (261,232 square miles) were densely developed in a way that is comparable to life in New York City, the entire world's population of about 7,550,000,000 could then move into Texas with 28,902 citizens living in each square mile.
So whether you lived in NYC (27,719 citizens per square mile), or moved to Texas with the entire world living there (28,902 citizens per square mile), the density of people living around you would be roughly the same. Play that out over the course of the entire U.S. as time moves forward, or over all of North America, or over the entire world. Especially in an environment where sin had not yet corrupted anything, it would take eons for the earth to fill up without even a lick of discomfort or turmoil for anyone.
And what would've happened at that point? C'mon, some of you out there have played No Man's Sky. In God's undefiled universe, why couldn't humanity then venture out into space unhindered to expand the population even more? Remember, there is no death or evil circumstances to fear, so anyone could boldly venture out to see what wonderful things could be discovered and enjoyed (that's my theory at least, lol).
Nothing we've done in human history up to this point comes close to the awesomeness that God had planned for us to experience if we collectively maintained our trust in Him and not listened to Satan's temptations along the way. Thankfully, the promise of indescribable goodness is still obtainable for those who choose to spend eternity in heaven. When the Lord says that we cannot even imagine how cool everything in heaven really is (1 Corinthians 2:9), I for one believe Him.

God bless each and every one of you!

Sure thing. I'll expand on that thought a bit more in response to another post below.
+++++++++++
You're welcome. Ultimately, the battle for each individual person's immortal soul is not in the head so much (mentally) as it is in the heart (spiritually).
Say for instance a person has not decided to establish a eternal relationship with (the biblical) God. The bible says no one that is unsaved decides on their own to go looking for Him. That is to say, this person is not waking up one morning and thinking on their own, "You know, I honestly want to find God for a relationship with Him." and then goes out to try to find where God is at for that relationship to begin.
So, for a person to do that on their own (with no urging from God whatsoever) would be the ultimate good deed in their life (pure goodness is described in the bible as being"holy"), but all of us are completely incapable of doing that without Him because of the sin in our hearts (Psalm 14:2-3):
Romans 3:11-12 echoes that conclusion:
This is why God has to come to us, not the other way around. After defying God the Father's specific warning in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve tried to hide from Him (Genesis 3:9). The whole scenario supports this main point perfectly... because of our sin, we don't go looking for God, we instead hide from Him as best we can.
In modern times, we hide from Him by immersing ourselves oftentimes even deeper into sin: alcohol/drugs, illicit relationships with other people, criminal activity, spritually lazy distractions like video games/TV shows/sports, etc. (if we prioritize them over Him), pride-filled vanity pursuits, emphasizing success/money/etc. over everything in life, and on and on.
So just like Adam and Eve, not only do the sinful people of any era or geographic location NOT go searching for God on their own, they run away from Him. However, the good news is that just as God still loved His children in Eden so much that He went out to search for them (Genesis 3:9), the Lord is pursuing each and every sinner that is still alive today with all of His heart to save them from eternal damnation brought on by their sin. Jesus said so Himself in John 6:44 and Luke 19:10:
How does Jesus do this? He doesn't solely come to our mind to merely reason it all out with us. That method is insufficient. The mind will entertain the temptations from Satan to consider false interpretations of Christianity, embrace false religions altogether, or reject God outright by saying He doesn't exist.
That's the best that the human mind that is corrupted by sin can do on its own. The deeper, more true connection between God and us is, again, through the heart. A stirring in the heart that begins with a sincere belief in Him after He first comes to each individual person in His desire for that relationship.
Jesus said in Revelation 3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me”. Jesus is talking about the door to your heart that you open with belief.
He will not force His way in, but will politely (and throughout one's relatively short life, persistently) continue to knock in hopes that you will *choose* to let Him in. The Holy Spirit carries out this activity on His behalf. If you do accept the Lord, your heart is transformed to be one with Jesus forever, and the two of you will dine with one another as the verse explains.

Put Adam and Eve's misadventure aside for a moment. Today, here and now, are people who made the same awful choice that they did in that they gave in to the evil one's temptations. The bible doesn't say you will be condemned for doing that; you are already condemned (John 3:18). The bible doesn't say that you will be an enemy of God without His righteousness in your heart, you are already His enemy (James 4:4).
But due to His love, grace, patience and mercy, you still have his breath in your lungs to choose wisely while your eternal judgement is temporarily put on hold. In practicing what He preached in the sermon on the mount, Jesus loves His enemies (Matthew 5:44). That is the only reason why some of you still have the choice to accept an eternal freedom from the presence of sin over the choice of damnation due to the penalty of sin by wanting to be separate from your Creator.
The bible urges over and over (i.e., parts of Psalm 95:7-8) not to wait to respond to the Holy Spirit knocking on the door of your heart, but to instead accept the free gift of salvation today:

I briefly addressed a similar claim in my first post, but that's not something we would ever had to worry about. God's is sovereign, and He will accomplish His plans to maximize the number of those who choose to come into salvation over the course of human history whether we decide to join with Him or fight against Him.
God's Plan A for humanity (John 3:16) is still in effect: to establish a two-way, loving relationship with whomever will choose to believe in Him (eternal life in heaven), and to sadly acquiesce to the choice of those who reject Him (eternal separation in hell).
How that plan plays out for our own, individual lives is up to us, but either choice won't prevent Him from moving his plans forward for all of mankind across the world and throughout the ages. He does it by his command because his word is that powerful (Isaiah 55:11):
Two examples...
In the book of Jonah, God had declared a judgement on the city of Ninevah in that they would be destroyed within 40 days because of their evil ways after Jonah finally delivered this message to them (he was initially delayed due to a self-inflicted set back). Though God was fully prepared to follow through on that judgement, He ultimately did not destroy those people because Ninevah citizens from the king on down repented (changed their hearts towards God).
So yes, God has various ways to adjust specific activity depending on what we choose to do (individually and collectively), but the ultimate Plan A was obviously still in effect as evidenced by His mercy in this instance. Sadly, once this generation died out, the future generations went back to their wicked ways and were ultimately destroyed 120 years later, but the blessing of eternal life for the initial generation will last forever.
The second example is one of the most eye-opening passages I've read in the bible... the Lord once ventured out into the wilderness in order to kill Moses who was camping with his wife (Exodus 4:24-26). The reason why is that at the time Moses was heading back to Egypt in order to confront Pharaoh and free the Hebrew slaves, but due to Moses giving in to his non-Jewish wife's decision not to allow their son be circumcised as Jewish boys were required, he was unfit to eventually bring God's Law (the commandments) to the Hebrews and be God's spokesperson if he couldn't follow the main laws himself. As the passage shows, eventually the wife reluctantly relented, so Moses' life was spared.
How different would history had been had Moses been killed? He still would've gone to heaven for his faith in God, but what about the Hebrews in captivity in Egypt? Simple - God would've raised up another (obedient) servant in his place. For all we know, maybe Moses was already the second or third choice because of, well, reasons.
In the end, The Lord's primary plan always moves forward whether we choose to be in or out.
+++++++++++
No, that would not have been an issue at all.
As I referenced in my first post, the bible said God wanted salvation for everyone (2 Peter 3:9 and 1 Timothy 2:3-4, among others) , and that hell was enlarged to accommodate people who died in their sins (Isaiah 5:14-15) since it was originally built only for the devil and his demons (Matthew 25:41).
We can take these perspectives to assume that the original plan for Adam and Eve to "be fruitful and multiply" (had they not succumbed to the temptation of sin) would not have encountered any types of problems such as the one you describe (running out of room).
Even from what we do know of life on the corrupted world we live in right now, things are not nearly as cramped (space-wise) on this earth as you might think. Consider the fact that New York City is the most crowded city in the U.S. It has around 8,398,748 citizens who are poured out over about 303 square miles of land. This means that about 27,719 citizens live in each square mile of the city.
Compare that to this crazy statistic... if the state of Texas (261,232 square miles) were densely developed in a way that is comparable to life in New York City, the entire world's population of about 7,550,000,000 could then move into Texas with 28,902 citizens living in each square mile.
So whether you lived in NYC (27,719 citizens per square mile), or moved to Texas with the entire world living there (28,902 citizens per square mile), the density of people living around you would be roughly the same. Play that out over the course of the entire U.S. as time moves forward, or over all of North America, or over the entire world. Especially in an environment where sin had not yet corrupted anything, it would take eons for the earth to fill up without even a lick of discomfort or turmoil for anyone.
And what would've happened at that point? C'mon, some of you out there have played No Man's Sky. In God's undefiled universe, why couldn't humanity then venture out into space unhindered to expand the population even more? Remember, there is no death or evil circumstances to fear, so anyone could boldly venture out to see what wonderful things could be discovered and enjoyed (that's my theory at least, lol).
Nothing we've done in human history up to this point comes close to the awesomeness that God had planned for us to experience if we collectively maintained our trust in Him and not listened to Satan's temptations along the way. Thankfully, the promise of indescribable goodness is still obtainable for those who choose to spend eternity in heaven. When the Lord says that we cannot even imagine how cool everything in heaven really is (1 Corinthians 2:9), I for one believe Him.

God bless each and every one of you!

Your shit ain't as slick as you think it is tbh. I was tempted to keep quiet because this is an obvious bait/trap thread (btw, real cute putting that "the majority here appreciate you", because if there's anything queer posters, posters of color etc like being reminded of, it's that we're The Minority), but then you had to insert this shit which is just blatantly "Minorities with valid concerns and criticisms? Couldn't possibly exist, people just want to see this place burn to the ground" and it's fucking sickening to see us get downplayed and dehumanized to that regard so casually. Not just here and now but anytime we have something to say. If you want me being silent about it like you clearly want me and everyone else being silent about everything else that Bothers You, please spare us the time and outright say that you want us banned. At least that's honest
This really falls apart when it gets to "outright say you want us banned" and loses all the momentum about BEING SILENCED.

To anyone that’s a Christian, I challenge you to explain this:
Why did god make it so humans derive sexual pleasure from killing with their hands (as confirmed by convicted killers, including Bundy and Gacy) if we are not supposed to use this function? That is just bad design—why build a feature no one is ever supposed to use? That’s strange and bizarre API design at best, and the more likely answer is that it’s just a trap to fuck gullible assholes.
Explain this and I’ll convert to some sort of strange Russian church tomorrow.

omg
I'm on the Murray Bookchin philosophy of seeing capitalism as one aspect of the greater root evil of domination. Because yes fuck capitalism, but domination and oppression is about a lot more than just class divide and exploitation. This is where Bookchin moves beyond Marxism to integrate race, gender, colonialism, and ecology. He offers two earnest and extremely educated visions for how to understand and confront domination in all its forms: social ecology and libertarian municipalism.
To sum it up very briefly, social ecology is a theory that states that all of our ecological degradation is in direct relationship to our social degradation. In this way (and many others) Bookchin's analysis parallels and borrows from what indigenous, black, and brown theorists have been saying for centuries: domination is intersectional and all the forms it takes are (to varying degrees perhaps) inseparable.
Libertarian municipalism advocates a re-centering of our political lives to focus on both a hyper local and necessarily global perspective. It proposes neighborhood level councils as the center piece of community political life, with directly elected and recallable delegates chosen to then represent the people as candidates for local political offices such as city councils, school boards, local transit agencies, etc. But before running candidates for office, it's vital to build solid community relationships, organization, capacity, and power. This is a vital perspective shift: the root of our political power is in our relationships to each other, both as people but also ecologically as organisms and planet. Fuck, even cosmos. This is a central perspective in both social ecology and libertarian municapalism, and you'll see it echoed by some of the most shining examples of the philosophy in action, including in Rojava in Kurdistan/Syria and within the Zapatista project in Oaxaca. Build from the grassroots up. Focus on bread and butter work like growing food and helping each other eat and thrive. Start housing cooperatives, childcare collectives, community cafes, food pantries, support networks, neighborhood dinners, free dental clinics, etc. Build relationships and resiliency strong enough to face the future head on.
While organizing locally, we must also organize regionally and globally. We must make this an interconnected (and, to be specific, confederated) movement.
I could gush on and on about this shit honestly. I genuinely think this is the answer to capitalism and it's two modern forms: neoliberalism and fascism. But it's also the answer to climate change, to mass isolation and alienation and powerlessness, hunger, police accountability, demilitarizing our borders, ending war, etc. It's some next level visionary shit and I stan it hard.

This thread, where to begin...
I’m sure there were many feudalism apologists back in the day, too. Imagine a capitalist having to deal with “Europe is what it is because of feudalism and the monarchy, why would you trust some unproven socioeconomic construct over something that has bettered mankind for centuries?!”
They’d lose their damned minds at the audacity of trying to claim that oppression by aristocracy was favourable to any alternative. Lucky for them, they don’t have to suffer the indignity of that conversation. Unfortunately for the rest of us, it means that many lack the understanding that they bring that indignity upon others in a similar position.
So long as the price system is in play (which is honestly the true enemy in all of this), it doesn’t matter if it’s capitalism or socialism, you’re still putting an arbitrary monetary value on human suffering at every turn, and it’s revolting to know it.

Sure thing. I'll expand on that thought a bit more in response to another post below.
+++++++++++
You're welcome. Ultimately, the battle for each individual person's immortal soul is not in the head so much (mentally) as it is in the heart (spiritually).
Say for instance a person has not decided to establish a eternal relationship with (the biblical) God. The bible says no one that is unsaved decides on their own to go looking for Him. That is to say, this person is not waking up one morning and thinking on their own, "You know, I honestly want to find God for a relationship with Him." and then goes out to try to find where God is at for that relationship to begin.
So, for a person to do that on their own (with no urging from God whatsoever) would be the ultimate good deed in their life (pure goodness is described in the bible as being"holy"), but all of us are completely incapable of doing that without Him because of the sin in our hearts (Psalm 14:2-3):
Romans 3:11-12 echoes that conclusion:
This is why God has to come to us, not the other way around. After defying God the Father's specific warning in the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve tried to hide from Him (Genesis 3:9). The whole scenario supports this main point perfectly... because of our sin, we don't go looking for God, we instead hide from Him as best we can.
In modern times, we hide from Him by immersing ourselves oftentimes even deeper into sin: alcohol/drugs, illicit relationships with other people, criminal activity, spritually lazy distractions like video games/TV shows/sports, etc. (if we prioritize them over Him), pride-filled vanity pursuits, emphasizing success/money/etc. over everything in life, and on and on.
So just like Adam and Eve, not only do the sinful people of any era or geographic location NOT go searching for God on their own, they run away from Him. However, the good news is that just as God still loved His children in Eden so much that He went out to search for them (Genesis 3:9), the Lord is pursuing each and every sinner that is still alive today with all of His heart to save them from eternal damnation brought on by their sin. Jesus said so Himself in John 6:44 and Luke 19:10:
How does Jesus do this? He doesn't solely come to our mind to merely reason it all out with us. That method is insufficient. The mind will entertain the temptations from Satan to consider false interpretations of Christianity, embrace false religions altogether, or reject God outright by saying He doesn't exist.
That's the best that the human mind that is corrupted by sin can do on its own. The deeper, more true connection between God and us is, again, through the heart. A stirring in the heart that begins with a sincere belief in Him after He first comes to each individual person in His desire for that relationship.
Jesus said in Revelation 3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me”. Jesus is talking about the door to your heart that you open with belief.
He will not force His way in, but will politely (and throughout one's relatively short life, persistently) continue to knock in hopes that you will *choose* to let Him in. The Holy Spirit carries out this activity on His behalf. If you do accept the Lord, your heart is transformed to be one with Jesus forever, and the two of you will dine with one another as the verse explains.
Dine on what? This is not a physical relationship that dines on earthly food, but through the heart it is an eternally spiritual relationship that dines on spiritual food: the word of God. As I said above in my first post, the real, eternal "you" is not the physical body, but the life that resides inside of it.
With the nourishment of spiritual food flowing inside, the real "you" has the fuel to grow spiritually. The spiritual growth begins initially here on earth once a relationship with Jesus is established in the heart, and ultimately continues forever in heaven. One of the most famous quotes from Jesus encounter with the devil when He refutes one of several temptations illustrates this principal (Matthew 4:4):
+++++++++++
The idea that God is punishing a person who does not choose to have a relationship with Him is not what the bible is describing. Instead, it goes like this:
- God evaluated the universe He created and everything in it at that time (before humans chose to sin). His conclusion was that everything was either individually "good" or altogether "very good" (Genesis 1). Nothing bad existed in the universe or on earth at that time. Sinful choices of mankind (starting with Adam and Eve) corrupted everything good that was created. Every physical aspect of the universe, every different type of human emotion and intellect, even the very nature of the soul itself, is tainted by sin in some way. This is why we have to deal with "natural disasters, illness, infant mortality, etc."... our collective choice to sin brought those misfortunes upon us, not Him.
- With that said, everything good that still remains comes from God (James 1:17). Not only external, physical things of His creation (water, the breath of life, the components of effective medicine/healing technology, many kinds of talents in the arts and other areas of skill and ability, etc), but this also includes the internal moral compass of what is good that everyone was born with that the person can choose to follow, to ignore, or to defy. This understanding is brought to the person's attention via the Holy Spirit, aka a "good conscience" (John 16:7-8), who also makes the case for Christ in an unrepentant sinner's heart (John 15:26). The "bad conscience" is wrought with temptation that is brought into your mind by Satan (Matthew 6:13).
- God stated the consequence for defying Him: death, which initially meant an infinite life in a perfect universe (untainted by sin at the time) was no longer possible. This was to be followed by death in the form of an eternal separation from Him after the physical death, which is said to be burning in the lake of fire forever (the absence of anything good since God is no longer around them).
- No one in and of themselves is "good" due to their sinful choices to defy their Creator once temptation is brought to their attention. Not Adam or Eve, not you, not me, not MLK, not Jesus' mother, not the Dali Lama, not the Pope, not Noah, not Moses, not the apostles Peter or Paul...no one is good, no not one (Romans 3:10-12 and Isaiah 64:6).
- God the Father cannot be around sin. Heaven is where He resides and sin cannot enter that place. Why? For one, the pure holiness (perfect goodness) of the Father in heaven makes it impossible for sin to exist in His presence. Also, wherever sin exists, it taints everything and everyone with evil and corruption - no exceptions. Heaven would become just as bad as the universe is now if sin were allowed inside of it, filled with sorrow and anguish and hate and wickedness and perversion and more.
- You yourself believe it would be wonderful if there were no more "natural disasters, illness, infant mortality, etc.". Me too! That's in great part why I am looking forward to when I get to heaven (after God's plan for me here on earth has ended). It will be the place where not one iota of "bad" or death will ever exist ever again (Revelations 21:4). God has made this freely available to everyone who will then be able to be forever in the presence of the Lord (1 John 3:2).
- No one who makes it to heaven (by choosing to believe in their Creator) gets in by any list of good deeds they accomplished on earth. Entry is a free gift for whoever wants it. They affirm that they want it by believing in He who is giving salvation away. Only by coming forward to God the Father with the righteousness of Jesus Christ representing them (instead of their own righteousness) can one enter into heaven (Romans 10:9–10).
Therefore, the ones that wind up in hell have only themselves to blame and not God. All of them chose not to have a relationship with the Lord, and hell is the only place where that choice can sadly be honored (God will not force you to choose Him over the love of sin).
Everyone innately knows enough about right and wrong (whether they've heard of Jesus and the bible or not) to agree they have no defense of ignorance against His judgement for many of the sins they chose to commit. Not one of us can claim that we have never lied, that we have never cheated, that we have ever acted out in anger towards another, and that we have spent our lives defying our Creator. This includes sins of wrongdoing, sins of evil words coming from our mouths, or sins of intentionally developed thoughts (Mark 7:20-23) that we know are wrong in God's eyes.
With that in mind, He could have carried out the sentence on any of us at any time as a result. However, in His grace and mercy God provided an escape from eternal condemnation through the work of His Son on the cross and subsequent resurrection.
All a person has to do is accept that pardon since the price for their sin was paid if they want it. If you choose not to believe, how can you say that He is being unfair? You would simply receive what you chose to embrace instead: to be eternally separated from the only source of good in existence (the presence of God). If you don't agree to let Jesus pay for your sins, you will pay for it yourself.
With the absence of a rejected good God for eternity, one is by definition subjected to the absence of anything good forever and ever, which is horrifically bad beyond what any comprehensive description can convey. Still, it is through the bible that God warns against going to the lake of fire where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matthew 13:42) and utter darkness (Matthew 22:13).
This is no game; this is your eternity.
+++++++++++
To the main point of objection, you are not fully aware of what you ask in your desire for everyone to obtain the "truth" that we all "deserve" when defending Adam and Eve's sin of eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge that was forbidden to them.
Since you say you are familiar with the narratives in the bible, think about it for a bit. Firstly, God stated that defying Him would bring death into their lives (Genesis 2:16-17). Death wasn't present before then, so how is the introduction of the first death (the soul separating from the physical body, Hebrews 9:27) and later the second death (the soul eternally separated from God, Revelation 21:8) an improvement over their initial existence of peaceful bliss? It clearly was not, and it also shows that God told them the truth (with His awareness of how bad things would become for mankind), so no one could claim either ignorance of the law, or accuse Him of malfeasance.
Next, please note that Satan told Eve (who later passed the lie to Adam) that God was wrong and they wouldn't die if they defied Him (Genesis 3:4). That turned out not to be true, since an earthly death is obviously part of our physical timeline directly because of their terrible choice, and a spiritual death is what hangs over every person's head because of sin unless we believe the fact that Jesus paid for our debt with His own life.
So the question then is, what productive knowledge did they gain after defying God? There isn't an immediately obvious positive gain after they sinned from their standpoint since the bible doesn't state that Adam and Eve were happier, enjoyed life more abundantly, or had a deeper closeness with each other and God respectively. It doesn't even say that the skies were sunnier, their relationship with nature improved, that they became smarter and healthier, or that work became easier.
In fact, the opposite happens in every single one of these points (and a lot more). The woman was cursed to endure a painful labor to produce children and be subjected to a naturally more subservient relationship with her husband. The man was cursed to toil the earth to get it to produce anything worthwhile, and a physical death would eventually take him out. (Genesis 3:16-19).
Nature and the universe itself was scarred by sin in that destruction, pestilence, famine, drought, earthquakes, fire storms, disease, etc. were introduced into existence. Internally into humanity's heart came hate, strife, violence, wars, agony, misery and perversion.
So Adam and Eve did not celebrate their newfound knowledge of evil even before His judgements against them were passed down. Instead, they ran and hid from God because of guilt and shame, and they ultimately suffered (internally and externally) for the rest of their years on the earth as He had explained they would.
Ever since that awful moment in Eden, people since then have been trying to get back to that Utopian way of life. We try to delay death, predict and protect against natural disasters, impose laws to control deviant human behavior and fight in wars for various reasons. Any and all of this is a bandaid for worldwide peace and happiness at best, and moving us in the opposite direction at worse.
The problem is that sin is a constant roadblock as it prevents many from reuniting with God (through their choice to avoid Him) who is the only source of anything truly "good" like peace, love, joy, and eternal life. So that discounts any value in knowledge that they (we) were conned by Satan into obtaining.
Carrying the point further, like a caring mom and dad it's not hard to think that God doesn't believe we need to experience the terribleness of sin in order to be complete people. What parent would reason to themselves, "Well, I already told my twelve year old that smoking crack is bad for her, but let me drop her off with strangers at a notorious crack house for summer vacation so she can come into that knowledge for herself."
That would be insane. Absolutely nothing good came to Adam and Eve (and us by extension) from listening to Satan's lie about obtaining "knowledge". Even sex wasn't forbidden to them since they were told to reproduce (Genesis 1:28).
Did they technically know more in general? About all things evil, yes, but they would have been better off simply trusting what God already knew about evil. They trusted the devil instead, and a price continues to be paid. So Jesus was correct when He said in John 10:10, which says in part:
This is all he does. To this day, Satan continues to tempt mankind with sin so that He can steal your love, peace, and joy (like he did with Adam and Eve), so he can kill every life that comes into existence (like he eventually did with Adam and Eve) and so he can destroy any truly good things in your life that comes from God, including attacking the opportunity for salvation (like he tried but failed to do with Adam and Eve).
Thankfully, Jesus provided a second half to the verse above:
Put Adam and Eve's misadventure aside for a moment. Today, here and now, are people who made the same awful choice that they did in that they gave in to the evil one's temptations. The bible doesn't say you will be condemned for doing that; you are already condemned (John 3:18). The bible doesn't say that you will be an enemy of God without His righteousness in your heart, you are already His enemy (James 4:4).
But due to His love, grace, patience and mercy, you still have his breath in your lungs to choose wisely while your eternal judgement is temporarily put on hold. In practicing what He preached in the sermon on the mount, Jesus loves His enemies (Matthew 5:44). That is the only reason why some of you still have the choice to accept an eternal freedom from the presence of sin over the choice of damnation due to the penalty of sin by wanting to be separate from your Creator.
The bible urges over and over (i.e., parts of Psalm 95:7-8) not to wait to respond to the Holy Spirit knocking on the door of your heart, but to instead accept the free gift of salvation today:

Heh, one of my all time favorite tales as a kid was a really cool unauthorized spin-off of "Through the Looking Glass". The 1947 short story is called "Mimsy Were the Borogroves" by Lewis Padgett, and it kinda touches on the point that you are making at the end (though you can skip the terrible movie version that came out a few years ago). :-)
+++++++++++
I briefly addressed a similar claim in my first post, but that's not something we would ever had to worry about. God's is sovereign, and He will accomplish His plans to maximize the number of those who choose to come into salvation over the course of human history whether we decide to join with Him or fight against Him.
God's Plan A for humanity (John 3:16) is still in effect: to establish a two-way, loving relationship with whomever will choose to believe in Him (eternal life in heaven), and to sadly acquiesce to the choice of those who reject Him (eternal separation in hell).
How that plan plays out for our own, individual lives is up to us, but either choice won't prevent Him from moving his plans forward for all of mankind across the world and throughout the ages. He does it by his command because his word is that powerful (Isaiah 55:11):
Two examples...
In the book of Jonah, God had declared a judgement on the city of Ninevah in that they would be destroyed within 40 days because of their evil ways after Jonah finally delivered this message to them (he was initially delayed due to a self-inflicted set back). Though God was fully prepared to follow through on that judgement, He ultimately did not destroy those people because Ninevah citizens from the king on down repented (changed their hearts towards God).
So yes, God has various ways to adjust specific activity depending on what we choose to do (individually and collectively), but the ultimate Plan A was obviously still in effect as evidenced by His mercy in this instance. Sadly, once this generation died out, the future generations went back to their wicked ways and were ultimately destroyed 120 years later, but the blessing of eternal life for the initial generation will last forever.
The second example is one of the most eye-opening passages I've read in the bible... the Lord once ventured out into the wilderness in order to kill Moses who was camping with his wife (Exodus 4:24-26). The reason why is that at the time Moses was heading back to Egypt in order to confront Pharaoh and free the Hebrew slaves, but due to Moses giving in to his non-Jewish wife's decision not to allow their son be circumcised as Jewish boys were required, he was unfit to eventually bring God's Law (the commandments) to the Hebrews and be God's spokesperson if he couldn't follow the main laws himself. As the passage shows, eventually the wife reluctantly relented, so Moses' life was spared.
How different would history had been had Moses been killed? He still would've gone to heaven for his faith in God, but what about the Hebrews in captivity in Egypt? Simple - God would've raised up another (obedient) servant in his place. For all we know, maybe Moses was already the second or third choice because of, well, reasons.
In the end, The Lord's primary plan always moves forward whether we choose to be in or out.
+++++++++++
No, that would not have been an issue at all.
As I referenced in my first post, the bible said God wanted salvation for everyone (2 Peter 3:9 and 1 Timothy 2:3-4, among others) , and that hell was enlarged to accommodate people who died in their sins (Isaiah 5:14-15) since it was originally built only for the devil and his demons (Matthew 25:41).
We can take these perspectives to assume that the original plan for Adam and Eve to "be fruitful and multiply" (had they not succumbed to the temptation of sin) would not have encountered any types of problems such as the one you describe (running out of room).
Even from what we do know of life on the corrupted world we live in right now, things are not nearly as cramped (space-wise) on this earth as you might think. Consider the fact that New York City is the most crowded city in the U.S. It has around 8,398,748 citizens who are poured out over about 303 square miles of land. This means that about 27,719 citizens live in each square mile of the city.
Compare that to this crazy statistic... if the state of Texas (261,232 square miles) were densely developed in a way that is comparable to life in New York City, the entire world's population of about 7,550,000,000 could then move into Texas with 28,902 citizens living in each square mile.
So whether you lived in NYC (27,719 citizens per square mile), or moved to Texas with the entire world living there (28,902 citizens per square mile), the density of people living around you would be roughly the same. Play that out over the course of the entire U.S. as time moves forward, or over all of North America, or over the entire world. Especially in an environment where sin had not yet corrupted anything, it would take eons for the earth to fill up without even a lick of discomfort or turmoil for anyone.
And what would've happened at that point? C'mon, some of you out there have played No Man's Sky. In God's undefiled universe, why couldn't humanity then venture out into space unhindered to expand the population even more? Remember, there is no death or evil circumstances to fear, so anyone could boldly venture out to see what wonderful things could be discovered and enjoyed (that's my theory at least, lol).
Nothing we've done in human history up to this point comes close to the awesomeness that God had planned for us to experience if we collectively maintained our trust in Him and not listened to Satan's temptations along the way. Thankfully, the promise of indescribable goodness is still obtainable for those who choose to spend eternity in heaven. When the Lord says that we cannot even imagine how cool everything in heaven really is (1 Corinthians 2:9), I for one believe Him.

This thread, where to begin...
I’m sure there were many feudalism apologists back in the day, too. Imagine a capitalist having to deal with “Europe is what it is because of feudalism and the monarchy, why would you trust some unproven socioeconomic construct over something that has bettered mankind for centuries?!”
They’d lose their damned minds at the audacity of trying to claim that oppression by aristocracy was favourable to any alternative. Lucky for them, they don’t have to suffer the indignity of that conversation. Unfortunately for the rest of us, it means that many lack the understanding that they bring that indignity upon others in a similar position.
So long as the price system is in play (which is honestly the true enemy in all of this), it doesn’t matter if it’s capitalism or socialism, you’re still putting an arbitrary monetary value on human suffering at every turn, and it’s revolting to know it.
:rofl
Price systems are means for an economic system to provide valuation to any commodity in the form of money. In modern price systems, that is expressed by fiat money (a promissory note that suggests it has value but does not have any intrinsic value itself).
What most of the world operates on, even socialist countries, is a “free price system”, where prices are determined mostly arbitrarily based on what a consumer is willing to spend for it and nothing more.
This, for one example, is why carbon pricing is such a demonstrably polarizing idea in society, because it imposes a value on, and thus commoditizes, befouling the earth, an act which people find both abhorrent in one hand and not something they believe should add value to a product on the other, along with some corporations who place no value on true sustainability and thus reject the price that’s applied to it.
Conversely, it allows the commoditization of human suffering, which is why we fine big corporate polluters in lieu of jailing them, more often than not. Or sometimes governments just take kickbacks to look the other way. But in either case, it is commoditizing suffering by putting a price on it. The price system not only allows it but encourages it.
capitalism COULD exist theoretically without the price systems we have. But billionaires and paupers alike seem to appreciate the arbitrary nature of the current system far too much to part with it.
People come into threads like this talking about Marx, but attention would be better given to Thorstein Veblen, who was also more anti-price system than anti-capitalist, but understood how those terms are almost always inexorably linked together, regardless of whether or not they should be. Interpretation of Marx by Lenin and Mao and other through the price system lens is part of why I think communism has inevitably failed, but that’s a whole other discussion. But it is why I say that the price system fails us all, even those in socialist countries.

To anyone that’s a Christian, I challenge you to explain this:
Why did god make it so humans derive sexual pleasure from killing with their hands (as confirmed by convicted killers, including Bundy and Gacy) if we are not supposed to use this function? That is just bad design—why build a feature no one is ever supposed to use? That’s strange and bizarre API design at best, and the more likely answer is that it’s just a trap to fuck gullible assholes.
Explain this and I’ll convert to some sort of strange Russian church tomorrow.
Lapsed Christian. The design is fine, the circuitry on the other hand... Humans are imperfect, some more imperfect than others.
Ted Bundy
“You feel the last bit of breath leaving their body. You’re looking into their eyes. A person in that situation is God!”
Serial Killers are just bad examples as so many of them are trying to play God. Which is obviously a big no-no in the Bible.

I was born into a Methodist family. Went to church every Sunday and then my Dad and I just stopped going. Always found it boring and it cut into the first NFL broadcast of the day. We also had a pastor that had been divorced twice over the years and we both found it hypocritical that this guy was guiding couples in troubled marriages. Have not been to a Church since I was in Junior High. Do not plan to go back until my passing. Still believe there is a higher power. There is good in most religions as charitable organizations but the bad outweighs the good. As much as I dislike the extreme left, my disdain for the extreme religious zealots is much greater.

I'm just letting them know their work doesn't go unappreciated. What's wrong with that? Some people just want to see this place burn to the ground.
Your shit ain't as slick as you think it is tbh. I was tempted to keep quiet because this is an obvious bait/trap thread (btw, real cute putting that "the majority here appreciate you", because if there's anything queer posters, posters of color etc like being reminded of, it's that we're The Minority), but then you had to insert this shit which is just blatantly "Minorities with valid concerns and criticisms? Couldn't possibly exist, people just want to see this place burn to the ground" and it's fucking sickening to see us get downplayed and dehumanized to that regard so casually. Not just here and now but anytime we have something to say. If you want me being silent about it like you clearly want me and everyone else being silent about everything else that Bothers You, please spare us the time and outright say that you want us banned. At least that's honest

This is my first post on the matter, and as I'm writing it, I'm not sure I will post it still. I'm one of the newest staff recruits, it's now getting close to 4 months since I've been appointed moderator, and it never stops being a wild roller-coaster. But the past week or two have been the most depressing and hurtful I've had to go through in a very long while.
I am a queer cis woman, as such, all LGBT+ related issues matter a great deal do me. And I saw several of my communities hurting. Being stuck in the middle, I felt like utter shit, and my mental health took a serious toll, to the point of physical self-harm (nothing serious, but it still happened). I questioned my position in the staff, I questioned my work, my ethics and morals. But this wasn't about me and it wasn't about my pain, so I stayed silent about it and weathered it all. I am just but a faceless moderator tag to most anyway. So I read the complaints, and heard the pain. I kept on reading, and I tried my best to listen.
At some point when everybody around you are just hurting, on all sides, it has to stop. I wanna build bridges, and I wanna let the hurt be healed, and we currently are planning on different ways of doing so, or are already doing so. Several communities on ERA have been hurting for much longer than I have. And it pains me greatly to see that. I want all minorities to feel safe, welcomed, valid and to freely exist in this space that we all love and cherish, for it is quite unique on the Internet, and absolutely needed. I'll do my best to do so, and hope that we can all make a better ERA out of this. I really want to. I know most of you do too.
I love this community a pretty good deal, and think its diversity is one of its strongest asset. I'm willing to tank any pain, as long as it means we can grow past it and be better together. I want to learn and I want to help. I don't know for how long I'll be able to weather this, it might eventually just catch up to me one day, but I'll do my very best to sincerely serve this community in the meantime, as much as my time, energy and mental health allow it.
I love you all.

Relax. Privatisation of the NHS won’t happen. Just scare tactics from the Labour Party.
International companies leaving the U.K. is probably more likely to happen if Corbyn taxes them hand over fist, which his plans intend on doing. Brexit doesn’t help in the short term, but it’s been voted on and we need to respect the result of the first referendum, so its debate is a moot point at this time.
As for the Sterling devaluation, a Corbyn majority is going to tank it a lot further than any Brexit, save a very hard one. Corbyn’s policies got the financial market shook. Only thing helping is the odds of a Corbyn majority are so low (at this stage), but the further it goes up, the more market volatility you’ll see.

I’d be an authoritarian as monarch, but I’d own it. Most of you would probably have been killed after a single sexual encounter to ensure my many bedroom peccadilloes don’t reach public ears.

These woke individuals saying a volunteer forum moderator position being the hardest thing they've ever done is wild to me.

If it's so hard and it's a business, honestly they should get paid. Cerium fucking making out like a bandit.
But modding a website isn't the hardest thing in the world.

I'd feel kind of bad if our shittalking did this to nepenthe, but instead it was the alphabet gang that broke her
I'm not gonna feel 'sorry' for anyone who decides to GTFO of resetera, no matter the reason.

I just come back to if the mods applied their own rules fairly and of they don't have protected users, a banned list they refused to write down or a million other BS things Ree does on a daily basis, the mods and moderation would be clear cut and maybe it wouldn't weigh on them so heavily that their protected groups wouldn't look to fucking burn suspected witches on the stake because they know they can make it happen.

Well, yeah, have a list of fucking rules visible to posters, and then ban the people who break those rules is how most mods on most forums function, and they manage to do so without getting so much cognitive dissonance about how to justify bending the rules that some protected asshole is violently shitting all over because some other mod declared them as member of their tribe that they're fucking self harming over it.
But then just being a fucking forum janitor minus the drama doesn;t let you play the victim card I guess :idont

Kyuuji ran into an issue where a thread wasn't about them enough so they had to word vomit all over it to make sure they got more attention :lol
Ok, if this is the routine for the thread let's stop referring to the past few weeks as "drama" or an "issue" that others have had to put up with, because it seems it's too detached for 99% of the forum to appreciate we're talking about human beings there as well.
-- -- -- -- --
Note: This isn't aimed at the staff posts or staff / ex-staff. Staff have every right to post and express their thoughts and I'm glad they do. Part of healing this divide is diminishing the perceived wall between us. More will be coming out soon but in the background TransEra x staff communication is positive. Things have happened recently and elements are coming soon that will start to make the trans community feel better and repair the divide. It's warming to see, and something that everyone is keen to ensure is afforded to, and works for, the broader minority groups on the forum too. Going through the past few months is something I would rather not experience again. The past fortnight one staff would rather not as well. We're working to achieve that.
-- -- -- -- --
Warning: This will come across frustrated, because it is built upon a largely-unvoiced frustration by the community.
It will cover things that are now being resolved, because the context is important.
This is at those on the forum that can't resist throwing a shot at the past couple of weeks as being something overblown – the same shit these entire events aim to address. The concern trolls that think they're smart for playing at the child's table without considering the possibility that the adults have been discussing at the dinner table, and the side they think they're on doesn't actually exist.
So, I'll kindly ask you to step outside of whatever wank-group you've gathered around the lunchbox digestives and realise that the 'mob' (or similar) you refer to are people and that half the dumb shit you want to ask you wouldn't have the spine to do so to a group of trans people in real life. I've heard reams about how people can't talk about sensitive issues now because they've been asked to show a degree of tact or consideration before doing so. Pages of it. How do you think that sits - hearing endless whines about how difficult it is to show the most minimal veneer of respect to us as people?
Mental tolls?
How about going months with threads about yourself, your identity and your issues being the least approachable place to go. That in order to engage on a topic that matters to you, you're forced to ensure an unending latrine of being mocked, insulted or dismissed until you tapped out or the thread died. That if you didn't, there's going to be transphobic bile covering the walls and ceilings of the thread like that's supposed to be the norm.
That you operate between not being able to release that frustration for fear of being banned, and not wanting to be banned because then the people that literally track and harass LGBTQ+ members of the forum might descend like wolves to laugh at you on every other medium you frequent. Better to shut the fuck up and put up with the abuse here and keep quiet than deal with that.
How about the people who face transphobic abuse at home, at school and come on to find more here?
Oh, a week? How about months.
Page 1: Discussion about or highlighting of issues
Page 2: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing

Page 6: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing

Every fucking thread.
Some cisgender personality tells the non-binary community they're not worth apologising to before throwing out a transphobic joke and the thread is bursting at the seams with cis people telling us how to feel about it. People in there saying we're "too sensitive" about transphobia being normalised catching a warning while trans people are under the fucking ground because the notion of gender identity is still something to be mocked and rejected.
Then when after those months the staff finally draw focus to it?
50%: Boilerplate "transphobia is bad"
50%: This has made the moderators feel bad, please think about them.
0%: Acknowledgement of the mental toll taken by the trans community through the months, nothing even about the months.
How do you think it feels that when a months-long issue is finally highlighted it's immediately put upon you to feel bad for showing discontent? That despite it having been a growing issue over time with no intervention, we should feel bad for shouting loud enough that it finally got people to notice. Not the months of ignoring a festering situation, no us for finally reaching breaking point with it.
This isn't some shitty The Last Jedi drama that might be the most significant thing that impacts you here, it was a serious concern that after a lot of time, pain and hurt is being addressed. Why some of you think you're being smart by trying to sidle up to the mods with the "psh these guys, right?" attitude and think it's going to afford you warmth from either side I don't know.
Want to speak of people dropping out?
Moderators step down for wholly understandable reasons and they can post here, receive warranted affection for the work and commitment put into the community and (hopefully) start leaving most of the stress behind them. That's how it should be.
I want to talk about the trans people who left the forum feeling shit at best and thinking themselves unnatural at worst. The members here that now only feel comfortable talking about trans topics -- topics about them-fucking-selves -- in Discord and will ignore trans related topics on the forum because they don't have the stamina to run the gauntlet every time. The trans people for whom this forum was the only place they feel valid while facing abuse at home or work, them being forced further into the dark.
People not so concerned about them on the whole though. Just eye-rolled as "drama" or not even entered as a thought into the mind.
---
The past few months have been difficult. Not the past week.
It is a situation that needed to come to the fore. It having impacted staff negatively is shit. I don't enjoy that. Delphine is one of my favourite people on the forum because all of her posts exude warmth, and topics with her in are some of the most joyous I've been a part of. I think she's an exemplary mod. I hate that she felt shit. I know for a fact she hates that I felt shit. No one wants to feel like shit, yet through the resulting mess many were made to feel so.
The moderators acknowledge all of this and are working with us to create a better environment for trans people and minorities in general. I just wish more people here would, instead of suggesting we've been a nuisance or doing so infringes too much on their right to post bluntly and without consideration.

TLJ is a critically acclaimed award winning film that knew exactly what it wanted to be though. RE6 was a muddled mess that didn't resonate with audiences or critics and caused Capcom to go back to the drawing board and reassess what makes RE games good. Really not a comparable situation.

I want to stop masturbating because it has demonstrably affected my studies and scheduling in a negative manner (for example I'd get horny before doing my homework so I'd masturbate, but then I'd end up falling asleep bc I got too tired from my orgasm and thus miss my homework)
Literally has the brain of an ape
I should have kept reading the replies in that thread:
I try but I keep getting horny man, doesn't help that:
My fetish isn't NSFW at all since it's about people growing up/improving themselves (stuff like working out), so I don't even need porn to get horny, like one of the most common things I jerk off to is just imagining Tomoko Kuroki from Watamote properly maturing in her uni years by having a proper sleep schedule (which got rid of her dark eye bags in my headcanon/"sexual" fantasy) and exercising for once by joining her uni's track & field team (because in the comics she's shown to be surprisingly decent at marathons even tho she doesn't realize it), which finally allowed her body to properly mature (because in my headcanon she has delayed puberty, since like she's supposed to be 15-17 but she hasn't grown at all from her middle school even as the story progresses through her high school years, and she hasn't experienced a period either)
Wait, I mean I shouldn't have kept reading the replies in that thread.

That you operate between not being able to release that frustration for fear of being banned, and not wanting to be banned because then the people that literally track and harass LGBTQ+ members of the forum might descend like wolves to laugh at you on every other medium you frequent. Better to shut the fuck up and put up with the abuse here and keep quiet than deal with that.
How about the people who face transphobic abuse at home, at school and come on to find more here?
Oh, a week? How about months.
Page 1: Discussion about or highlighting of issues
Page 2: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing
Page 3: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing
Page 4: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing
Page 5: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing
Page 6: Validate yourself and your concern to people mocking and dismissing
etc.
Every fucking thread.
Some cisgender personality tells the non-binary community they're not worth apologising to before throwing out a transphobic joke and the thread is bursting at the seams with cis people telling us how to feel about it. People in there saying we're "too sensitive" about transphobia being normalised catching a warning while trans people are under the fucking ground because the notion of gender identity is still something to be mocked and rejected.
Then when after those months the staff finally draw focus to it?
50%: Boilerplate "transphobia is bad"
50%: This has made the moderators feel bad, please think about them.
0%: Acknowledgement of the mental toll taken by the trans community through the months, nothing even about the months.
How do you think it feels that when a months-long issue is finally highlighted it's immediately put upon you to feel bad for showing discontent? That despite it having been a growing issue over time with no intervention, we should feel bad for shouting loud enough that it finally got people to notice. Not the months of ignoring a festering situation, no us for finally reaching breaking point with it.
This isn't some shitty The Last Jedi drama that might be the most significant thing that impacts you here, it was a serious concern that after a lot of time, pain and hurt is being addressed. Why some of you think you're being smart by trying to sidle up to the mods with the "psh these guys, right?" attitude and think it's going to afford you warmth from either side I don't know.
Want to speak of people dropping out?
Moderators step down for wholly understandable reasons and they can post here, receive warranted affection for the work and commitment put into the community and (hopefully) start leaving most of the stress behind them. That's how it should be.
I want to talk about the trans people who left the forum feeling shit at best and thinking themselves unnatural at worst. The members here that now only feel comfortable talking about trans topics -- topics about them-fucking-selves -- in Discord and will ignore trans related topics on the forum because they don't have the stamina to run the gauntlet every time. The trans people for whom this forum was the only place they feel valid while facing abuse at home or work, them being forced further into the dark.
People not so concerned about them on the whole though. Just eye-rolled as "drama" or not even entered as a thought into the mind.
---
The past few months have been difficult. Not the past week.
It is a situation that needed to come to the fore. It having impacted staff negatively is shit. I don't enjoy that. Delphine is one of my favourite people on the forum because all of her posts exude warmth, and topics with her in are some of the most joyous I've been a part of. I think she's an exemplary mod. I hate that she felt shit. I know for a fact she hates that I felt shit. No one wants to feel like shit, yet through the resulting mess many were made to feel so.
The moderators acknowledge all of this and are working with us to create a better environment for trans people and minorities in general. I just wish more people here would, instead of suggesting we've been a nuisance or doing so infringes too much on their right to post bluntly and without consideration.

It is not our (or any of your) job to “educate” users on what they did wrong. The ban/warning message is the “hint” they get as to what was wrong, but it is ultimately on the individual poster to change their behavior.
just gonnna quote this message from a prior admin
If you're part of the ResetEra community and it bothers you that the discussion in threads is so toxic as to turn good people away (and it should), you need to realize that the onus is on you, the community, to try and make things better.
You excuse death threats and harassment against Era mods.
Just in case you think you're fooling anybody about how much you sincerely care about the toxicity around here.
you mean the person who single handely annihilated pc era ? and actively went out of his way to gut a community on here and when people spoke out he posted troly images in reply. and when people quoted him he would reply with dont quote me again.
proper top tier mod behaviour right there and was clearly fighting against toxicity at the time
You are still excusing death threats. So there should be no mistaking where you stand as a member of this community.
i mean it doesnt excuse the owner of this site saying gay slurs to someone in public and had a case about it. which you can actively find the report online if you search for the resetera llc owner name in google. there should be no mistake where the owner stands as the owner of this community i guess then ?

Yup I agree.
GAF bans were 'personal vendettas' by the mod team. Say they didnt like you, they kept tabs on your account and banned you for the smallest infractions and to top it off, they would give you a smart ass reason to spite you.
So far, this is not the case here so its progress.
As a very inactive member of the mod team at the old place, that was not the case. I mean, there were people who were definitely waiting to catch a ban, but that was because of a history of consistent bad behavior that had not reached ban-worthy yet

There was also a pretty strong splintering and there were people who were "protected" but most of that was not coming from the volunteer staff but ownership, and without getting too much into things, ownership and the mod team were very often at loggerheads with one another about certain subjects and posters being off-limits.
Unlike era where they don't just condone that shit, its their recruitment pool

Chris Asch was one of three librarians at one of America's premier high schools, Stuyvesant High School in New York City, when he was suddenly arrested and called a "pervert", removed from his job, and told to go to the rubber room in Washington Heights to sit and await charges. One of the students at Stuy was a person who resented any kind of adult chastisement and focused his hatred of the 'system' on one man, Chris. Isamu Fukui had few friends, and wanted popular Chris to suffer for telling him to be quiet in the library. Stuyvesant Principal Stan Teitel didnt want Chris around either, seemingly because he - Chris - would block Sten's attempt to reduce the size of the Stuy library, as well as make other changes to the schedule. Stan made up that Quiz Bowl, an organized group at Stuyvesant but not a school-funded Club, mentored by Chris, necessitated paperwork for overnight trips that was, indeed, not required at all, then charged Chris with not filling the paperwork out when the Quiz Bowl students were invited to Harvard for a competition.
http://www.parentadvocates.org/nicecontent/dsp_printable.cfm?articleID=7983
Asch, who is 65 years old, began working in the New York City school system in 1989. In 2002, he gained tenure at Stuyvesant High School, where he was employed as a librarian. It was not long before Asch ran into trouble at Stuyvesant.
In 2009, Asch was accused of harassing and inappropriately touching male students. He was put on unpaid leave for six months and transferred to a different school. The arbitrator ultimately found that Asch’s conduct was not sexual in nature, Newsweek reports.
Asch has been in custody since his arrest in 2014, and his employment has obviously been terminated. Assuming he serves his full term, he will be 80 years old when he is released.

The concern trolls that think they're smart for playing at the child's table without considering the possibility that the adults have been discussing at the dinner table, and the side they think they're on doesn't actually exist.
So, I'll kindly ask you to step outside of whatever wank-group you've gathered around the lunchbox digestives and realise that the 'mob' (or similar) you refer to are people and that half the dumb shit you want to ask you wouldn't have the spine to do so to a group of trans people in real life. I've heard reams about how people can't talk about sensitive issues now because they've been asked to show a degree of tact or consideration before doing so. Pages of it. How do you think that sits - hearing endless whines about how difficult it is to show the most minimal veneer of respect to us as people?
Mental tolls?
How about going months with threads about yourself, your identity and your issues being the least approachable place to go. That in order to engage on a topic that matters to you, you're forced to ensure an unending latrine of being mocked, insulted or dismissed until you tapped out or the thread died. That if you didn't, there's going to be transphobic bile covering the walls and ceilings of the thread like that's supposed to be the norm.
That you operate between not being able to release that frustration for fear of being banned, and not wanting to be banned because then the people that literally track and harass LGBTQ+ members of the forum might descend like wolves to laugh at you on every other medium you frequent.

In 2009, Asch was accused of harassing and inappropriately touching male students.
How did the alt-right trolls know that he was gay, and to use that info to accuse Cerium of being homophobic?
:pika

Can some TLDR?
Cerium is a gay cannibal?
Cerium accused a gay librarian of inappropriate contact, arbitrator suspended the librarian 6 months, court found the claims baseless. But then it turns out the dude was on some fetish website talking about torturing, raping, and eating women and children. Also he went to nambla meetings, you might have seen him there.

I really don't understand how we can be mid-apocalypse and people still want to insist that capitalism is working. The pursuit of profit and power is killing us all.
-
- I support jury nullification and would be unable to support a law that I felt was too unjust, or a potential punishment that I felt was too punitive, regardless of the actions of the defendant.
- I went to school for policing and by the time I graduated, I decided that I never wanted to be a cop. Years of studying the law and being taught by officers, former prosecutors, and former judges gave me a less than positive outlook on the criminal justice system.
- I don’t believe that juries are effective tools of democracy
- The criminal justice system is systemically disadvantageous to all minority groups and should be always be called into question
- I do not believe that police officers’ words or written records are any more trustworthy than that of an average citizen
- The blue wall of silence makes me seriously question the integrity and honesty of all officers and prosecutors
The best part? I’m not lying. I have a million reasons why I’ll never serve on a jury.
:badass
I’m Canadian and have never been summoned once, but I sincerely doubt I’ll ever serve.

watched this last night. what a crap film.
as usual for Tarantino it's full of wonderful setups and attention to set dec and really tries to capture a vibe... and it's in service of a meandering, nonsensical, frankly stupid story that goes completely off the rails into cartoon violence in the last 5%. just like Hateful Eight.
QT is known for set design?
Also, isn't cartoon violence what he is known for?
It was intentional, my main issue with the movie is that Tarantino's male gaze fuckshit is at an all time high. We don't need 4 foot fetish scenes especially if he's trying to respect Tate, we get it.
Then Margaret Qualley's character just straight up asking to suck Brad Pitt's dick? Come on
Least favorite Tarantino movie by a longshot
A women in sex cult doing the sex is just chauvinist.
Thank god they have Marvel movies to cuddle up with when scared.

TLJ is a critically acclaimed award winning film that knew exactly what it wanted to be though. RE6 was a muddled mess that didn't resonate with audiences or critics and caused Capcom to go back to the drawing board and reassess what makes RE games good. Really not a comparable situation.

AbercrombieandFeet told me he would never meet anyone from wikiFeet in real life because "there would be a bloodbath"; he also mentioned one user who was "considered the site's pervert for his love of 17yr feet." The importance of shoe size—"the dudes that are fastidious about shoe sizes are deviates to me," Grik said—is another hot topic, as is the presence of shoes at all; some users prefer the purity of barefoot.
Sounds like Reset
Cachia does not have an IMDb page—a wikiFeet user discovered her photos in an essay she'd penned for her student newspaper about having webbed toes—yet she too has been subjected to the wikiFeet treatment, an often contentious mix of praise and ridicule. "Normal toe dime a dozen but web toe is unique hard for find and beautiful treasure!" writes user ToothpickTorture, a wikiFeet Guild Knight who has the third most uploads to the site of all time. "Alice," Grik replies, "I'd be investing in socks if I were you."
Caitie agrees that the trolling has not disappeared in the wake of the new moderation system; even now, certain wikiFeet users make her "want to leave the Internet entirely."
"The attitude of some of the users is rather repugnant and immature, and it turns off a lot of curious people to the site," she said. "It's not uncommon to find vulgar comments on the walls, and any rational-minded person would be put off by that. If you need proof of just HOW repugnant it can get, google, 'Amy Schumer has jewy little toes.' Be sure to have Advil on hand. You'll need it."

Seems that they dont like nintendo somehow.
I mean they didnt release gta3 on the gamecube before. They didnt do any effort when wii was the most selling console. And now when we do see that tieth party ports are selling that well on switch, it isnt that they dont like money?
Even there other port for switchwas based on a playstation engine with as low effort as possible which makes the game runs like s*
F them
Also there isnt something like nintendo audience. Gta 5 is mainstream as hell. Wii en switch are both bought by mainstream people.
Nintoddlers are an embarrassment :nintendo

GTA Advance, and Chinatown Wars for the DS
Bully, Manhunt 2, and Table Tennis for the Wii
Chinatown Wars was real fuckin good too. God damn ninyenyearolds don't buy third party games and kill all hopes of a sequel.
Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword is another exanple :fbm
:juicy DS was the only Nintendo platform after the SNES with good 3rd party support and none of those babies supported it over lazy Pokemon cash-ins, at best buying piracy carts for everything else. Even a game with mass appeal like Chinatown flopped. So I'm pretty sure R* understands where their audience is. But noooo, it's always the fault of the secret conspiracy against their favorite shitty toy maker.
Not to mention, who the hell cares for another GTAV port - unless you're such a manbaby, you refused to buy any of the dozen cheap-ass platforms that play that game :neogaf Nintenyearolds remain the most pathetic shills (though Gaben sluts are getting up there). bruh, voluntarily get the most limited gaming experience, while blaming everyone but your choice, or your beloved company, for it.

But other than that, this is probably the weakest the series has ever been. In my opinion, anyway. I find it extremely disheartening.

How are you living in a first world country and getting fucking Gout? HUUUUUUH
Huh? What does Gout have to do with the country you live in? Isn't it a form of arthritis?
Diet: Eating red meat and shellfish increases your risk.
Alcohol: For most people, more than two liquor drinks or two beers a day can increase the risk of gout.
Sodas: The fructose in sweet sodas has recently been shown to increase gout risk.
Obesity: Obese people are at a higher risk for gout, and they tend to develop it at a younger age than people of normal weight.
Makes sense why they have it then....

I’m back.
I was banned for trolling multiple kojima threads because apparently saying “dick me kojima” three times previously in other kojima threads is trolling. And not only that but trolling to a degree that warrants a 5 day ban. I’m not sure I understand that conclusion given that I’ve never even been indicated to that those comments were inflammatory in any way. Additionally one of the comments cited was a jokey comment made in my own AMA thread. Just found that amusing.

I'd be inclined to agree if it was his first reaction to the first time someone says this, but I'm pretty sure it's not.

Some people just don’t like the new shit dude sorry, and I can see why they wouldn’t. To me the sequel trilogy did it’s best to dump all over our heroes from the OT. Sorry Luke went out like a punk but he did. Sorry Han is a dead beat loser dad but he was. I bet Leia was going to bite it as well had Carrie Fisher not died. Nice legacy there Disney...., the only OT hero to make it out somewhat ok is because the actress died before you could ruin her too.

yet you seemed fine with Royalan's intolerant views on ace folks! curious! way to make this about civility instead of, y'know, principles though. Totally not the thing we're fighting against in all trans threads all the time.
we get to a healthier place as a community by not tolerating intolerance in any form, and by people like you not talking over queer folks on issues that don't affect you. sit down.
Nora is such an insufferable cunt. I have to imagine the noncrazy transgender people of era love that Nora, Feisty, and Kyuuji represent them to the rest of the forum. Let’s take a look at the heinous post that deserved so much anger...
Ok, you clearly missed the entire point of my post and are reacting again with vitriol. I’m saying we on the left (myself included) and the grand majority of people on this site are with each other on 90% of issues and shouldn’t be at each other‘s throats even when we think others here are wrong about something. My whole point is that you should be saving this vitriol for the right, who are the ones propagating homophobia, transphobia, acephobia, etc.
Let me expand further: does anyone here really think that Royalan was promoting actual discrimination against people who are asexual? Was ANYONE here actually promoting that?
Ok, and I’m happy you’re expressing these views to me via a reasoned message rather than advocating for me to be banned or ostracized. I’m not saying you can’t disagree and can’t even argue - I’m saying that this should be an open forum and people shouldn’t be calling for bans or for mods to step down except in egregious circumstances, and I don’t personally think this qualifies. You may disagree, and that is fine, but all I want is for this to be a site where people have freedom of speech and even freedom to make mistakes without being met with a chorus of contempt.
Oh, he’s saying maybe you should take the context of Royalan being a strong advocate for lgbtq+ equality into consideration instead of assuming the absolute worst interpretation of a single post? What an asshole!

It's not the job of marginalized folx to educate you.
And it's not the place of white people to speak over marginalized folx.

People are like white folx hate spice, well the empire taking over purely for spices sure shoots that argument down.

THE STATEMENT is coming.

Q: Concern about bad-faith posters and how best to address them.
A: Communities tend to be more familiar with the threads that affect them, and therefore may be able to identify bad faith posters and subtle trolls better than staff. Users can send detailed reports to provide relevant context or example posts (either through the report system or by PM to a mod/mod captain). If a pattern of behavior can be shown, this makes it much easier for the mod team to address the issue.
Doubling down on discord fuckery :neogaf
-
Q: Concern about some members asking inappropriate questions in sensitive threads.
A: ResetEra staff will try to be more proactive in making guideline staff posts in sensitive threads. As part of this, ResetEra staff can point out threads and resources where people acting in good faith can have their questions answered.
How?

Still trying to figure out where all of this transphobia is supposedly happening on ERA. Between the trans and BCT communities, the level of shit they are able to get away with and shame mods into banning anyone they don't like and now a fucking MEETING with the mods?
Anyone sane still posting there should just ask to be perma'd. A mass exodus of people doing that would be great to see. After that transparency thread and people dunking on Nepenthe, it's obvious many who are staying silent otherwise are getting fed up with the way shit is going there.

On behalf of French Canadians, our little brothers we as French are entitled to represent, I demand that the Bore administration immediately convene a meeting with our representative (myself) to discuss how best to provide a safe space for French Canadian citizens and curb the oppressive bad faith quips of one (or several) Mod Admiral(s).
The Bore should provide a meeting place, a plane fare (two ways) (business class), an hotel room and plan for snacks and refreshments. All those are essential to my sense of safety and proving that the Bore is now a welcoming place for Québécois-es and others. It seems only fair given the vexations and indignities constantly visited on our thriving French Canadian community, which we barely hear from anymore since they've been leaving in droves.
Let's make this better together and I hope I'll hear back from the administration shortly. Or else the executions of hostages will commence in 2 hours.

If MCC releases and it doesn’t have the current weird connection issues and the input delay on mouse and keyboard I’ll be really shocked, the fact they didn’t even put cross play into even just for campaign is wild as well.
I fully expect yet another classic 343 release of this game that ends up further killing the Halo franchise.
Given it's taken half a goddamn year to release from it's announcement: I hope not. Especially as I'm replacing my copies with this version and selling those to get rid of/make space in the house.

I'm also leaning in to the message that the way to peace is for those who are here today to step up and address the pillars of colonialism that continue to cause suffering, even if they personally had nothing to do with the conflicts of the past. Anna doesn't go all "sins of my forefathers" on the natives. She fucking destroys the dam and is willing to let Arendell sink for it.
She a real fucking ally.
At least we have the world of fan-fiction to somewhat fill in the void
:holeup
The thing about Arendelle not being destroyed is it works within the movie's plot as a metaphor for reparations
On the negative side, the songs weren't as memorable... and I take issue with the white savior / Last of the Mohican shit they pulled with the ending by having Elsa abdicate the throne to live amongst the natives. On top of being socially reprehensible, it just didn't make sense for Elsa to do this. It was an unbelievable decision.

Yeah, looks like she did get injured. I'm just saying that her black eye looks extraordinarily like makeup, especially compared to all the other black eye pics Google pulls up. It's still possible she added makeup to make the pic more striking, but it's probably just a super weird looking black eye.

I'm happy to have gotten the opportunity to take part in this meeting. Thanks to all who attended. ❤
I feel like im missing something, whats the back story here? Did something happen?
I wanted to to say thank you to all involved. Having just recently joined the TransEra community, I'm glad to see progress made to make the site more welcoming and safe. One good thing (of hopefully many) that came out of this, for me personally, was it got me to check out the TransEra OT, which then got me to admit some very important things about myself.
-
Things really shouldn't have gotten as bad as they did but if the staff is as committing to making this place feel safe again as they say then they have my support.
wait, didn't you leave
-
Why not a little red flag next to these topics and a five point guide (with links) at the top of all of them by default?
This will make banning transgressors easier. That's proactive.
yeah I suggested the Serious Replies Only flag / toggle in one of the other threads and I still like that idea. Thread guidelines is a good idea too.

Can't wait for the complaints about how few pages the topics have compared to "random dumb nintendo thing of the week" or whatever. They did that at E3 when the Cyberpunk transphobic ad thread wasn't as long as threads about new games/trailers/previews/etc. Also a few weeks ago when a "we need to talk about Kojima's sexism" thread wasn't as long as the reviews thread. Kyuuji already bumps Sensitive Threads™ when they don't get replies within an hour or so.

I was originally gonna make this a percentage thread like I did for the female fighters thread, but it'd be a bit depressing with regards to how many we have in each game. That plus counting those of East Asian descent would get a bit dicey in terms of how people would feel about the final percentage, especially with regards to fighting games from Japan.

On NeoGAF.com they were talking about when the forum started going downhill and I made a carepost saying it really started going downhill fast after like 2014 (back before climate change) and was a flood of ResetERA.com's traits by 2016-2017 and Evilore-senpai liked it. :-[

Ashe's character, like many others, was created after the fact of her design. She exists as a foil to McCree because, upon settling on a design, they simply made her that way. We don't know how she would've been characterized as a black woman because Blizzard didn't give her the chance to be a black woman.

Not just which games, but how do you order them?
Do you order your list based on which games you had the most fun playing this year? Or do you take a more analytical approach and try to pick the games that were the most ambitious/best from a game design perspective? Do you pick the most technologically ambitious games? Or maybe the most original and unique games, even if they're smaller in scope? Do you prioritize games that had the best gameplay but perhaps middling stories? Or maybe the other way around? Do you put the games you've spent the most time with at the top of your list? Or does playtime not factor into it for you?
-
Yes.

Nepenthe gets dumber with every further post I see. Excluding the car purchase post. That’s probably a high watermark that’s tough to beat. You could play devil’s lettuce DUI bumper cars for a full hour and not top that purchase.

booooo it was just getting good
The fantasy being referenced is a rape fantasy though? Gangbangs in porn are more often than not. There's nothing wrong with any kind of consensual interracial orgy but it is not coded as such, its coded as a group of large older black males hovering behind an "unsuspecting" young and small white girl. From what I can tell, they're specifically referencing a power dynamic (and often white male-serving giant dadoldry fetish) fantasy that stems from racist depictions of black men as rapists and women as sexual prey. Oh, and the fact the comparison being made in the video is with competitive war maneuvers. But hey i'd love to be convinced otherwise.
Regardless of context, the "just a joke, bro" excuse is flimsy. Would you really trust a bunch of dudebro game developers to do racial humor in good faith?
Mainstream porn is...still pretty shitty, eh?

That was my primary point to raise as I agree. It's something that people have to endure an amount of because it relies on being a pattern of subtle prods than an obvious transphobic comment. If it takes 5 posts to make a clear case, it's 4 people have had to put up with. Moderators only see one post from a report, and the others that we know are there somewhere because we've been the ones affected by them, might be buried in among 500 posts across 150 threads. So tackling it isn't simple, but I think some steps proposed could definitely help, alongside the increase in severity of bans around the topic.
One was in having links to threads like the Transgender 101 thread to direct people with good-faith questions to, so they don't congest the current thread while also allowing us to educate. Having to be diverted to troll in an old widely-used thread isn't as fun as the current active one, reducing the kick people get from it. If they continue they walk a thinner line as it's been made clear that general questions around identity etc. should be forwarded to the 101 (or other).
In addition a couple of staff members said they would be fine being a point of contact moving forward for reporting ones we did see. If I were to spot someone posting in bad-faith and knew they were only there to troll based on past history, I could put the posts in question into a PM to them, detailing some of the context and the pattern and these would be reviewed in addition to any reports. Hopefully over time this will help mods identify some of the behaviours we're affected by more keenly, while meaning we don't have to put up with them for as long.
Staff post I imagine will lay out the scope of the changes and implementations, but wanted to give some context because it's very much something that has been rife in the past and is extremely aggravating. Hopefully through the above and other changes we can both reduce the amount interested, and sooner identify those that still are.

Indiana University is a public university and it’s employees are all working for the state government.
If the Constitution of the US applies in this current context, then that is weird and unexpected for me, as that's not how this works in Canada.

So many things wrong with this OP.
It is a public university, not a private institution, as you claim.
The vice president and provost is a woman, not a "he".
The vice president is a lawyer and legal scholar. She was dean of the law school before being named provost.
The statement is both well-worded, and accurate. It's also a scathing takedown (in legal speak) of the shithead professor AND a legal roadmap for students to get him fired.
Maybe spend an hour or two reading up on basic Constitutional law before making sweeping statements that have no basis in fact and calling a law professor "a dumb fuck" because you don't like the law?

Alright, I'm happy to say that all of you have been recruited for the heist. Your first task is to break into the Louvre, but your goal is not any of the paintings or artwork inside. If you can remove the Mona Lisa from its casing, you should find something written on the back that I am told will lead us to the next clue.
Try not to set off any alarms, and let's try not to get anybody killed.
This team is far too big, this is a one person job with maybe a support man.
It's like they've never run a bl...er I mean, I have no idea about any of this thievery stuff.

I identify as a tank and I don't know if that user knows, but that tank slowly made a consent action, by slightly tilting the gun as it was surrounded by very hot dark tanks. Such behavior is normal. Tanks do know how to express when they don't consent, as illustrated in the following video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rpr5vk9TRZ0
Human was engaging tank with some S&M. When it got too rough, tank rescinded consent.
I wish Octolings didn't try to tell us tanks how to behave or what our culture is supposed to be.

"I want JRPGs with great female characters. Strong, complicated female characters that aren't defined by their sexuality, like Estelle in Trails in the Sky or Nanami in Suikoden II."
Aren't both of those characters ~16 and the main characters' step-sister? I'm not saying Jason has a type, but that sure is a type. :thinking

https://www.resetera.com/threads/asexuality-and-discrimination.155740/
Note: This is based on personal opinions and while I am asexual, my experiences and opinions do not necessarily speak for the Asexual Community.
I wanted to make this thread because I wanted to talk about how asexual discrimination occurs. There is usually confusion at the idea and I wanted to give a personal view into why I think it occurs as well as some examples I have experienced.
1. Refusal to acknowledge Asexuality as an orientation
Let's start this by defining what Asexuality means. Asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction to others, or low or absent interest in or desire for sexual activity. It is not a choice (i.e. celibacy or abstinence) but an orientation.
Now, I'm fine with most people initially not familiar with asexuality. After all, only 1% of the world is asexual according to statistics (though people guess the number might be higher). What is significantly less cool is people then trying to find anything to say I'm not asexual. The most common I hear is "Oh, you just haven't met the right person yet." Which is annoying to me because I'm like 99% positive I won't suddenly grow a boner at one person. But there's a lot of things thrown out such as me being gay or bi and not admitting it, saying I'm just trying to justify my virginity (which is...lol I lost that years ago), or implying I'm mentally or hormonaly imbalanced. There is just this refusal to believe that someone can just not be sexually attracted to things.
2. Romance
I don't think people realize how sex plays an important roles in romance and relationships. Even the option to not have sex plays into it. What people don't understand is that asexuality is a spectrum and while people like me are also not interested in romantic interaction, asexuality doesn't necessary preclude romantic interest. Early on before I realized I was aromantic as well as asexual, my lack of a sexual drive was discriminated against. There were those who believed I was lying to them that I cared for them or that I didn't truly love them because of my lack for sexual interest. And as a guy I was incredibly lucky. I know many of my women asexual friends who have horror stories about men who refuse to understand asexuality.
These were but a few examples from personal experience. If any asexual members of Era want to discuss their own discrimination please fill free to.
I get enough bullshit admitting my sex drive isn't always running at a "peak high" ("Whaaat but sex is amazing! You just haven't been with the right per--" uuugh no) .
We talk and sell the idea of sex so much people get almost freaked out that others can be different or simply werent born the same... Not sure why it's so hard to accept there are all kinds of peoples with all kinds of preferences....
Xaszatm thanks for making these sorta PSA posts, I honestly think they're concise and a great read for those who legitimately have questions or are just not around folk to tell them about these things...
It's great you can break folks outta their shells
I definitely relate. Out of what you said I've been told:
"You havent met the right person yet"
"If your asexual then there must be something chemically wrong with you then".
Then I get things like:
"You don't know if you like sucking a dick until you suck a dick"
"Maybe if you try having sex you might like it"
"Oh does that means you cant feel attracted to people"
It goes on. I mostly forget people saying this since the conversations rarely come up and people say this when first learning of asexuality. Most people just move on and forget about it because they don't understand it or they don't care.

It seems moronic to me to care about discrimination when you're both asexual and aromantic (note: I feel like aromantic just means unsociable asshole) because it's not like being a gay man in the 80s or a trans woman today or some shit where you have to love in secret or get beat to death on the way home from a night club- you can just live your life without getting involved with anyone and no one will ever know or pressure you into anything apart from like your mum and grandma nagging you for grandchildren. (note: non breeder straights have to deal with this shit too! and even if you're seeing someone they'll still nag you to get married)
It feels like really desperately wanting to be included in being oppressed when you're really not. Sorry bout it.
-
The examples of discrimination in that thread are literally how other people respond with things like "nah" or "that's weird" or "have you even tried sucking dick?"
This makes them unsafe.

Funnily enough my initial thread title was going to be Asexuality and Discrimination in a Sex-Obsessed Society but I felt that might bring other weird discussion to the topic.

Do you have kids? Usually that's the bar to the adult table.
i just wait until someone finishes eating to eat.
Being a kindergarten teacher: parents love to ditch that responsibility.
I often got seated extra, once because im vegetarian and kids food often is vegetarian (fries, pizza, ...) and of course because they have someone to watch out for their kids. Parents can get drunk and the teacher will educate/work.
I prefer the kids table. The adults are usually boring or shit people at worst.
I'd rather eat at the kiddie table, because at least the chances of having to listen to some MAGA asshole are reduced drastically.
Yes, and it is fine. I don't want to sit with those racist assholes anyways. 35 myself
sometimes i go to the kids table on purpose so i dont have to hear my fascist family talk about politics
I wouldn’t mind sitting at the kids table. I could hear about all the cool Switch games. And I could tell them a tale of the 16-bit golden age of videogames.
You must not have a wife and kids?

Everyone in my life most probably have no idea what asexuality is. And I'm not comfortable in discussing it with anyone, out of fear.
The only people that bother to dislike asexuals are other LGBTQ'ers. To normies a person saying "I'm a lesbian asexual demisexual pan-being," just makes the normie nod their head and say "that's nice." How did it become my job to validate your personal choices/life? I just came for the open bar, not to discuss my sex life.

I really didn't like calling myself demisexual, when I would explain it to (mostly) women with typical libido and sex drive for their age. Explaining to me very typical behaviour for those socialized female, and how they experience sexual attraction.
So like, I would explain that I don't feel sexual attraction. Unless there's a connection. Because for some reason demi is about connection, not like a direct meaning like I'd prefer like pseudosexual/semisexual that convey the same thing demi *should* be conveying, but allosexuals latch onto that 'connection.' Bit and basically tell me, "OH I must be demi too, I have to get to know a guy first too lololol." And it's insulting, but I also have to accept there's a fundamental disconnect between those who experience and those who don't and those who sometimes-- explaining the nuance is usually an exercise in futility because most people will dig deep to try to find something to relate with, when they are like the opposite of me. Allosexuals trying to appropriate demisexual erases the nuanced asexual spectrum experience.
Most of my support network is on facebook, and I joined a bunch of those leftbook groups. And like there's this huge debate over exclusion or inclusion. They say that asexuals aren't queer. They tell us we don't experience oppression, marginalization, stigmatization, or discrimination all the while functionally engaging in perpetuating all that stuff they don't believe we experience! Like bottom line full stop: Heterosexual/aromantic and Heteroromantic/asexual. I'm sorry they appear to be straight to you, and you feel like their existence invalidates your struggle. But they are still asexual. The straight privilege you claim they have doesn't exist because they are still ace. I wish there was more written material about how Queer Platonic Partnerships work because hetaces would still face tons of discrimination and difficulty trying to date other allosexuals considering there are inherent needs generally that would not be met thru being ace.
That and when allosexuals don't like that label. I mean, it's the same bullshit with cis and trans. We have words. To communicate one or the other. I'm not sure how the autistic community feels about the asexual community stealing allo as a prefix in relation to autism/allism. In some european communities they call them Zedsexual. Cause like A to Z?
I've spent the last three years helping aces find support and validation. I've cried at their stories about their abusive families and how they treat these minors for being asexual. I've talked to aces of all kinds, and like...when an asexual conversation pops up: "Oh they just don't have sex haha, that's cool, i don't get how anyone could hate that." That stems from a toxic, almost abusive line of thought and it's harmful. We don't feel sexual attraction, it doesn't mean we can't have sex, be into kink, make dirty jokes, fap, watch adult videos, etc etc etc. I'm tired of being treated like it's as simple as not having sex.
We have terms like cupio, aego, lith, fray, demi, quoi, gray, etc to define some of the gray areas between the stereotype of the cold rigid, no sex, no nothing ever stuff and the gray area. But when we go public with them, get told that they are 'made up.'
Honestly, I do not enjoy being ace. I feel other kinds of attraction. I have certain needs. But I don't feel sexual attraction, so it makes trying to get any of my needs met difficult because I'm too indifferent to attempt to become close to someone. Rather, I've accepted that I'm asexual. I spent most of my life performing allosexual cisgender, so maybe have some trauma to work though. At present, it is more difficult for me to be ace than just lie and then create asexual-inspired boundaries once we get intimate. But I can't lie about who I am. I would really like for the conversation about asexuality to pay attention to the fact it's on a spectrum, and it's not as simple as you like to think it is so you can process it.
I want to get to a point where I can just say I'm ace, or asexual and people realize that asexuality is not a monolith. and that it's on a spectrum. Being pre-judged as harmless is insulting, honestly. And it's harmful. So uh yeah, there- I talked about some discrimination. Huzzah

So is there really a difference between asexual people that are still apparently into relationships and just having a low sex drive? Is “low sex drive” now considered a slur or offensive?

https://www.healthline.com/health/what-is-asexual#desire-vs-attraction
Similarly, many asexual people still have a libido and might experience sexual desire. So, asexual people might still masturbate or have sex.

There are many reasons why an asexual person might want to have sex. For example:
to satisfy their libido
to conceive children
to make their partner happy
to experience the physical pleasure of sex
to show and receive affection
for the sensual pleasure of sex, including touching and cuddling
Of course, some asexual people have little to no sex drive or sexual desire — and that’s also okay! Asexuality means different things to different people.
Maybe should use another term, then.

To be 100% on the level with you guys, as a career homosexual I thought asexuality just meant people with no sex drive—people uninterested in sex. Is this “low sex drive” definition feature creep or has that always been part of it?
I also have to say as a career homosexual that I’ve never actually met an identifying asexual in real life.

To be 100% on the level with you guys, as a career homosexual I thought asexuality just meant people with no sex drive—people uninterested in sex. Is this “low sex drive” definition feature creep or has that always been part of it?
I also have to say as a career homosexual that I’ve never actually met an identifying asexual in real life.
Who the fuck knows? It’ll change next week anyway or something new will be added to it to further your confusion :mindblown

People talk about the struggles asexual people go through all the time, but nobody ever mentions the problems non-asexuals have...

I bet there are some famous people around here. Even if they're just reading and not posting anything.
One I suspect very heavily is Henry Cavill. He's such an avid gamer that I can't imagine that he's never been here.

nothing an avid gamer likes more than constantly hearing what a massive hate fuelled incel alt-right nazi cunt they are

You can be in the mood without feeling sexual attraction to people. Or get yourself in the mood. Sometimes it's just random and sometimes it's situational but it doesn't necessarily require you to feel sexual attraction towards people in order to feel arousal.

Regarding demisexuals, isn't the definition something that like 85% of the population would agree on?

I think these modern definitions have taken into consideration porn warp. To today’s idiots, if you don’t want to have sex as frequently as a porn star, you’re demisexual. If only 90+% of your waking time is spent seeking sex, you’re asexual.

Yeah, there are no bigots, or clueless morons who buy in to the endless free PR by bigots for this place, in liberal cities. That's why blue as can be NYC has no issues with bigotry.
With this company, they've made it crystal clear. It's why people are so upset, usually they can downplay or say they didn't know.
It’s Thanksgiving, don’t you have a family to disappoint?

I'm sure Henry Cavill would love to chat with people who endlessly repeat how he ruined Superman forever for them. Ignoring of course that it never seemed like he was 100% on board with the direction Snyder was going with the character.

Henry Cavill message me on Reeeee I’ll put in a good word for you here at the bire :derp

Henry Cavill is already cancelled on ResetERA.com for downplaying rape or whatever.

Exactly. When are the mods going to make good on their promises to the queer Era community and back up that shit up with actions. We still haven’t seen a response to last weeks drama. People aren’t feeling anymore welcome and I’m still seeing these basic ass threads by straight people who have no issues supporting this trash company.
:delicious

Also for TVC, the bad vibes thread has a guy transforming himself into a bimbo (http://www.thebore.com/forum/index.php?topic=45482.msg2744259#msg2744259):
I just want to (permanently) lose my burden of intelligence, and there are few ways to do that effectively / quickly.
-
I hope the next meeting between TransERA and the mods deals with the very real issue of all these nazis trolling the LGBT community with there choice of fast food restaurant. I propose they come up with a list of vetted and approved restaurants for members to choose from.
-
What's the right wing analog to "slacktavism"? Cause that's what flexing your Conservative views by eating fried chicken is called.
I think it's called "just another excuse to stuff my hole with fried food".
-
I hope that the moderators work to protect the marginalized community from the violence of people playing and supporting bigoted gaming companies like THQNordic, CDProjektRED, Blizzard and Nintendo. Only protecting them in fast food threads on one side of the forum is basically not protecting them at all. I don't know how anyone could feel safe knowing all of that was still happening after years upon years of this shit already.
And all while Ketkat has abandoned them.

If they aren't going to ban them outright, people who eat at chik fil a should get a tag so the actual good people here can just put the trash people on auto ignore.
You eat that chicken sandwich, and your ass will get marked :ufup
-
Yeah, people aren't as slick as they think. Look at how many fucking threads about this fast food place there have been in the last month.
Now on Thanksgiving, while mods are with their families we have yet another thread about Chick Fil A. With the same dog whistles and dumb bullshit as they always contain.
But the forum is going to get better with making sure that the LGBT community feels safe and heard. They just have to wade through the whataboutism, bad faith, JAQing off and the thread a week we can't seem to stop making about a company known for their bigotry.
We get it, you don't care. You'd personally tear up a gay person's marriage certificate if it meant you got to eat one more chicken nugget.
:gddr5
-
Now they need protection from...threads about a fast food joint?
Someone needs to seriously drop a picture of Perlmutter shaking hands with Trump in that thread and say "hope you've never seen a Marvel movie, otherwise BIGOT!"
-
Can't what for the new trend on ResetERA to ban bait users into admitting they ate at Chick-Fil-A or used some product or service from a company that is in the doghouse with LGBT-ERA.
-

This must be how they conjure up all the racism, transphobia etc. that they seem to think is all over the site. Nothing there? Will it into existence.
-
Funny thing is, LGBT-ERA didn't just get an inch--they got the whole damn football field. Now they are looking about getting the entire stadium and more. And given recent events, there is no reason to believe they won't get what they want and get people banned for admitting to eating at Chick-Fil-A. After all, bad faith actors and gasligthers are around every corner on ERA making it a dangerous hellscape for the LGBT community there.
-
So this is how they spend their Thanksgiving.
Jussie Fucking Christ.

This thread is amazing. 98% of the people commenting in favour of Chick-Fil-A I've never even seen post anywhere else in this forum.

I've got no doubt that there are a small number of assholes who revel in praising CFA for shitty reasons, but equating anyone who enjoys it with a MAGA hat douchebag isn't really acceptable.

It's simply untruthful to suggest that this is organisational policy and you're encouraging people to avoid giving to charity - although it's clear from this thread that many were already doing so - based on this.
Obviously even a single instance of discrimination is awful, but there is no evidence whatsoever that this is widespread and plenty of evidence of them doing good for people regardless of sexual orientation or gender.
Now, I absolutely agree with Ellie Goulding that the best thing for the Salvos to do would be to come out of a blanket statement of support for LGBT+ people and completely renounce any prior behaviour to the contrary.

Not surprised Middleman got a perm after the capitation the mods did to LGBT-ERA. He was probably enemy #1 to be sniped after the new "rules" were announced in that pinned SweetNicole thread.

Or that one dude who says his lesbian daughters eat there and then make pro-lgbtq donations. Queer people can make terrible choices that have negative consequences on their own community. I’ve seen it first hand with racism and bigotry in the Chicago queer community.
not the moment of self awareness it could have been, while rabidly demanding bans for people who like a fast food chain and giving all the ammunition in the world to point at you and people like you

Tough to say just because “normies” can be very low information in terms of paying attention to national news (that’s not meant to be insulting). But if you pay attention at all the controversy around CFA is probably something you’ve heard about in some form or another.

I mean, I like Star Wars and shit and I grew up with the original trilogy, collecting the figures and just general Star Wars worship, but the prequel trilogy (and adulthood) cured me of trying to hand wave the bad stuff.
Everything outside Liam Neeson and Darth Maul has been pretty shit since the end of Return of the Jedi quite frankly.
The Last Jedi was super bad and The Force Awakens is some pretty poor film making, but what can you do when you have two fucking awful scripts and a studio trying to shovel in as much nostalgia as possible? I will see whatever this third one is called, just to see how bang on average the "twist" is going to be and for the inevitable meltdowns on REEEEEEE when it is confirmed that Disney are responsible for killing Star Wars. The bans are going to be glorious!!!

BCT are the worst “allies” for LGBT people. At least Trans RE pretends to care for minority groups outside their own. I suppose Royalan getting demoded didn’t help.

How the fuck is this...
Sure would be a benefit if I could closet my skin color when dealing with the police, shopping, or hell any time I want to do ANYTHING and not have my blackness shoved down my throat.

If BCT had any balls, they would pull off their own attempted coup and fight for the reinstatement of Royalan over his unjustified denutting.

Surrfinn, Cheebo and Eden astro-turfing hard for the end of Star Wars trilogy is hilarious as fuck because literally no one else seems to give a shit about it cause of TLJ and that has them fuming.

Persecution of gay people by law enforcement on many countries has totally being a thing. Hiding your sexuality also takes a toll on people. Saying that is “easy to hide” being gay sounds like a particularly shitty over simplification. Is probably a ‘better‘ than “get killed by random racist cop” but dunno why people need to compare two forms of oppression as some sort of contest.

I wish there was one closer, I've only eaten there a few times, but it's always been tasty. No crazy lines that I remember though.
In-N-Out around here always has crazy lines in the afternoon/evening, I don't even bother going there later in the day even with the people helping in line though.
If they aren't going to ban them outright, people who eat at chik fil a should get a tag so the actual good people here can just put the trash people on auto ignore.
And they say performative wokeness isn’t real. But here’s the kicker...
I'm not suprised
I mean, I'm personally someone who will never go to CFA and side-eyes people who praise CFA (this thread being somewhat an exception, as the bigotry isn't the topic -but- what merits they in regards of service, even if I think the former is much more important)
That person was like the extreme strawman version of that and I suspected they were faking
They can’t even admit that most of the time it’s all bullshit to gain social credit amongst the rest of the crazies on reee. As soon as they slip up once, the rest assume it was fake. News flash, most of you reee fucks are faking it :trumps

I’m tired of reading this shit in Era. If you eat there, you’re a piece of trash, no exceptions.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/why-is-chick-fil-a-popular.155785/page-7
Ordering from Amazon is defending their shitty labor practices. Eating meat is defending the unethical treatment of animals. You ain't slick.
You're playing with some moral score card that everyone will obviously not ascribe to.
Sure? Whataboutism isn't going to get anyone far in the reality of our world. But relative to Amazon, eating meat, etc. sacrificing a chicken sandwich is an incredibly simple commitment.
Amazon is super easy to avoid too. I don't know why people act like it isn't. It's been over a year since I ordered anything from Amazon, and not because I made a conscious choice not to, I just haven't needed to. Whatever you want to buy from Amazon, there will always be somewhere less shitty to purchase it from.
Same argument when it comes to supporting Apple, you always get people saying stuff like "Well you need a smartphone in 2019 just to get a job". Not only is that not true, there are other smartphone manufacturers out there. "Whataboutism" as people keep putting it is very valid here. We have posters calling people they know nothing about "pieces of trash" based on the fact they bought a chicken sandwich, it's only fair that people point out their hypocrisy because calling something a piece of trash based on one tiny tidbit of information like that is completely unreasonable. I can understand that people feel stronly about this issue, and LGBT rights in general, which is obviously a good thing, but it's also not the only issue that matters and to see people waving off their own hypocrisyy with theses lame excuses is tiresome. You're allowed to feel strongly about subjects that matter to you without labelling everyone else who doesn't align with your strict moral code on one specific issue as a piece of shit.
Except no, whataboutism doesnt apply here as that fallacy is used to detract from the topic at hand, specifically CfA and their anti-LGBTQ funding; the thread isnt talking about Amazon, Apple, etc., if you wanna talk about it then a new thread can be created tackling each issue or a general thread consolidating all those issues.
My point here is that relative to the whataboutism examples people like to throw here, sacrificing a chicken sandwich is still an incredibly simple thing to do to address one's hypocrisy relative to said examples.
My personal take on hypocrisy? I havent met any one person in my life who wasnt a hypocrite on some fashion. Still, that doesnt mean that one shouldn't strive not to be one, especially when confronted/knowledge on the issue hand, especially so.
A personal anecdote. I'm only part of the LGBTQ community as an ally and when the CfA drama was revealed they asked of me to not support explicit establishments/organizations harming their livelihood. I agreed and have kept that stance since and not only that it is incredibly simple to keep that stance.
It's not used to detract from the topic at all. If someone says "this one decision makes you a piece of shit" then it's completely on topic to point out how that poster is likely being a hypocrite by making excuses to support other companies that are just as problematic in different areas.
Again, not using Amazon is easy. Not purchasing Apple products is easy. Anyone who argues otherwise is making excuses, and if those same people are calling people a piece of shit for eating a chicken sandwich, then they deserve to be called out for it.
My point is that everyone supports some business that's problematic in some way. Those people don't get to call other people a piece of shit for doing the same thing with a different business just because they support this specific issue more than they support other issues.
I mean, just look at the post above yours. 10 days ago a poster was all "I wish there was a Chik-Fil-A closer to me, it's tasty" and now they're actively calling for the banning of anyone who eats at Chik-Fil-A. Posters like that deserved to be called out for being hypocrite ass holes.
Why not? Not all issues are created equal. I'm not of the mind to tell my gay friends about their concern about CfA is somehow less important than buying smartphones from Apple due to Chinese labor conditions. That's nonsensical.
What you insist leads people to be lethargic on addressing issues instead of calling out what can improved when it can be called out.
I'm not telling you to do that, I'm saying other people have no right to call someone a piece of shit for supporting a business when they themselves likely support a different shitty business and make excuses for it. We have people in this thread, saying that LGBT people who go to Chik-Fil-A are "pieces of trash". Like come the fuck on, have some perspective and understand that not every single issue is all or nothing, and that buying a chicken sandwich does not make you a shitty person.
You can choose to support and not support whatever businesses you want. You don't have the right to reduce someone else entire character to them being a piece of trash because they don't adhere to your exact moral standing on a very specific topic.
And again why not? And again, I'm not going to tell LGBTQ folk in policing their language against CfA becuase a number of them might happen to have IPhones.
I'm not going to tell black people to police their language because some number of them happens to shop from Amazon.
I'm not going to tell women to police language on addressing rape because some number of them go to Walmart.
Again, what you insist breeds lethargic inaction to address issues becuase, as we both agree, everyone is a hypocrite. It does literally nothing but muddy conversation and delay/halt potential action in pointing out that useless piece of trivia.
Why do you keep saying the bolded as if I'm in any way saying that's something you should do? I'm not telling you to say or do anything to anyone. I'm saying that a person has no right to call someone else a piece of shit for eating a chicken sandwich.
Everyone is a hypocrite to certain degrees, yes. What's your point? Because mine is you don't have a right to reduce someones entire character to them being a piece of trash based on one very specific action regarding a very specific topic when you are likely engaging in similar behaviour with similar consequences. As I have said over and over.
The 3 examples you've quoted aren't relevant because that's not what's happening here. I'm not asking anyone to police their language against CFA, I'm saying they need to not reduce someones entire character to "a piece of trash" because they bought something from CFA. It would be like you calling your friends a piece of shit for buying an iPhone, regardless of their stance on any other number of political topics.
And I'm saying that people can call people shit/"a piece of trash" if they feel invested enough on a particular issue, and they dont have to suffer some obtuse cognitive dissonance just because of some useless whataboutism fallacy.
It's why I keep bringing up the parts you bolded in my post. No one is perfect. Attempting to silence people in calling out injustices because they participate in some other unrelated injustice does literally nothing but hamper tackling injustice in general.
Again, if my gay friend wants to call people who purchase from CfA pieces of shit, I'm not going to play some hypocrisy checker and tell them to stop.
I'm not silencing anyone at all, where am I doing that? Saying you can't reduce an entire persons character to "a piece of shit" because of one specific decision on a specific topic isn't trying to silence them from sharing their opinions and feelings on the topic as a whole.
How are you not getting what I'm saying. It's like calling someone a piece of shit for shopping at Amazon or buying an iPhone, regardless of their stance on all other political topics. You don't get to make assumptions on a persons entire character because of a decision like that. Call out injustice all you want, but that's not what's happening in this thread and it has never been what I was arguing about.
You just said it yourself, "no one is perfect", so you don't get the right to call someone a piece of shit for not being perfect. If someone can say "If you eat at Chik-Fil-A then you are a piece of trash, no exceptions", as has been done in this thread, then I can call them a piece of shit for shopping at Amazon. Do you think it's fair of me to call you a piece of shit for shopping at Amazon? Do you think I'm a piece of shit because I have an iPhone?
And again, why not? Do you honestly think we live in a world of civil discourse? Be it a chicken sandwich to presidential elections, the reality of this world isn't civil.
And also again, if the gay man owns an Apple IPhone and calls CfA customers pieces of shit for funding an organization that directly impact his life negatively in explicit fashion, I'm not going to be the one to point out he has an IPhone. Are you?
You're being purposefully dense here now. You're ignoring my actual argument and trying to twist it into something else entirely.
Hardly, your form of argument is literally an analogue to "both sides" in nation politics. Being the "moderate", being the "civil", doesnt do anything but maintain the status quo. And do keep in mind the goal is to change the status quo.
My argument is not both sides at all.
If I met one of your gay friends for the first time, saw they had an iPhone and, without knowing anything else about them, said "You're a piece of shit. Anyone who owns an iPhone is a piece of shit, no exceptions or excuses" would that be a fair or reasonable thing for me to say?
That's not a "both sides" argument, it's a comparison. I'm really not even sure you know what "both sides" means because it's not in any way relevant to anything I've said. I'm not saying "Chik-Fil-A are bad, sure, but Apple are just as bad". I'm saying you can't call someone else a piece of shit based on a very specific action like buying chicken sandwich. That one action does not define who they are as a person, just like buying an iPhone or shopping at Amazon does not define who they are as a person.
If you felt strongly about it sure. Then obviously the conversation will go into the 'why' of things and that's where we achieve the avenue/potential for change.
And if you dont want to make conversation then you'd still be entitled to free speech and whatnot.
No, the answer is not "sure", the answer is no. No matter how strongly I feel about an issue, I don't get to make assumptions about a persons entire character based on one single purchasing decision. No one does. You can criticise the decision, but you absolutely do not get to say that on the whole they are a piece of shit or a terrible person. That has nothing to do with free speech, it's about understanding that a single purchasing decision does not define a person, and you are completely unreasonable if you think otherwise. It is absolutely absurd to try and claim that a persons entire character can be defined by the purchase of a chicken sandwich.
And I don’t know about you, but if someone jumped straight to calling me a piece of trash for owning an iPhone I wouldn’t be willing to have any sort of conversation with that person.
Your idealism is pitiful. The world doesnt operate on "I dont get" or "you dont get", bad stuff happens and you deal with it.
If you get called a piece of shit you deal with it, you can either shrug it off, argue it, accept it, whatever. Fact of the matter is progress doesnt happen because you're polite, it's definitely a nice ideal, but that's not the reality of 2019.
I have absolutely no idea how you're not getting my point. I can't break it down any more than I have.

He puts me in the mind of someone who’s afraid to rock the boat, like he’d rather be viewed as the cool black guy to his white buddies instead of one who will call them out on their problematic behavior. Basically he seems like someone who pretends to be way above it all, but it’s not that, it’s just cowardice.
So yeah, he shouldn’t be an inspiration for young black kids. Because he never really acknowledges anything that could remotely make his predominately white base uncomfortable.

Critical thinking to these people means condone and cancel. Not being aware of the problems and realizing why they are bad. There’s no grey here.
Also P5 “homophobia” is so lame and tame compared to anything really damaging. Oh no a joke about a straight male being uncomfortable around stereotypical gay males! The horror.

And I think your sarcasm/troll detector is broken.
Dude posted the most possible over the top anti-CFA stuff you could imagine.. posted about how the mods should label all CFA eating posters so that others could auto-ignore them...
Less than 2 weeks after talking about how much they like CFA, have eaten there, and wish one was closer..

It’s still bad now with online gaming, hell just look at the amount if harassment women receive during online gaming sessions. Or gamergate, which is pure concentrated evil.
yes, that kind of defeatist attitude towards this is very harmful. We need to make so the racists realise they can’t get away with propagating hate everywhere they go.
Getting fed up of addressing this point. I said in the very first post this not a new phenomenon. The difference now is the racists are very visible, highly organised and emboldened by the current political climate.
Difference is back then we didn’t have social media or YouTube, the internet has changed a lot over the last two decades.
-
Early/mid 2000s internet was the best. Used to visit a dozen forums and no one ever talked about anything other than the forum's subject.
:whatisthis
-
People jumping in with their 'it's always been like this' hot take are being disingenuous af. OP never said racism wasn't a thing on the internet, and you are kidding yourself if you think it was anywhere close to what it is now in those old days. Now it is organized, profited off, and spread far and wide by humongous social media machines like Google, Facebook and Youtube. It's also being peddled by cult of personality internet celebrities that every child knows and loves. Nothing like Gamergate ever happened before.
OP so isn't suggesting that "racism is new" but that racists have become emboldened, louder and are better at spreading their message through social media. And the OP is 100% correct on this.
You're correct that racism was already here and it will indeed remain after Trump, but this administration and the groundswell of alt-right is absolutely making it louder and more prominent.
This isn't normal. It hasn't always been like this. People think that it's worse because it is. Because racism has more protection and more allies than it has in a long time.
My take on this...The internet was so much better before broadband
I'm starting to wonder if the dark, irreverent humor that seemed to be so prevalent in my experience on the internet in the 2000s wasn't really that but a smokescreen to normalize hatred, racism, and hostility.
I mean, after all, can we say that sort of 4chan humor of the 2000s is any different than the actual den of alt-right influence that exists on the site and similar boards today?
yep, these are former NeoGAF.com members alright

Trump won't be able to resist saying something about the London mayor.
Not obsessed...not at all.
Fake vest or not, you can't take the chance and let a blast shockwave, shrapnel and even chemicals take out and injure many more people. The suicide vest in Manchester was real and it killed 22 and injured 59.

It's neither, the creator confirmed the game was built by himself in C++ rather than any pre-made engine. This said, though it is a game and he's playing the game, he didn't really make it a game that others can play, to quote him on this:
To any indie game developers: wouldn't it be so much easier if you didn't have to worry about the player at all? So much work eliminated, not to mention stress. Make a fake game.
I'm sure if he were to right now release the game he's made it wouldn't really be player friendly or work how it does in the narrative, but he has been making a game from scratch for the series rather than this being an animation or the like. It's also notable he made some older games before this, such as Nifty.

Just comment on something in their picture or bio, maybe have an anecdote to share, just shows your interest and that you're not spamming the same one liners or greetings. Oh and leaving with a question so they have something to respond with. Ghosting is just part of dating life you have to accept and not take too personally.

The problem is... this is like seeing a pricing mistake/very good offer and saying you're not gonna take it because you think of the retailer. Like... loopholes should be closed, that's the thing. But as long as they exist, use them. Why wouldn't you want to keep your money when there's no safety net in the US is beyond me.

Nothing has endured like Star Wars and retained such a strong level of popularity, that's really what makes the franchise so special compared to everything else. The worldbuilding in ANH and Empire is second to none even though the nitty gritty of it is bullshit

Not a fan of how they differentiate "trans" from "women", since trans women *are* women.
:huh
Then why is there a "trans" community on REEEE? Shouldn't there just be a "women" community?
This festival's ethos is awful. I am bored of supposed women's spaces making exceptions for trans men under awful transphobic pretexts, usually regarding socialisation. If you're going to exclude men, exclude them all: trans men are men, making them distinct from cis men is transphobic. I don't want any men in women's spaces, cis or trans.

Yeah.
Probably because it comes across like he’s afraid to act “too black,” and he basically took up for PewDiePie when he said the n-word. He puts me in the mind of someone who’s afraid to rock the boat, like he’d rather be viewed as the cool black guy to his white buddies instead of one who will call them out on their problematic behavior. Basically he seems like someone who pretends to be way above it all, but it’s not that, it’s just cowardice.
So yeah, he shouldn’t be an inspiration for young black kids. Because he never really acknowledges anything that could remotely make his predominately white base uncomfortable.
The first part of this post reminds of the way some people view particular minority groups as being defined just as much by their politics as their immutable characteristics. So being Gay for instance, isn't just about having sex with men (although really it is) it is also having the right political views. So being gay as an identity 'group' is about being left-wing and taking a particular stance on various issues. To be gay and right-wing, or to be black and right-wing somehow means you are not really a representative or speak for the gay community or the black community.
The point being, saying someone is afraid to act 'too black' implies that there is a way in which black people should act. And that the way in which black people act should be distinct from how white people act. My first thought actually when it comes to why he thinks he is afraid to act a certain way, is the way that he talks. Because what is it about MKBHD that gives someone the impression he is not acting black enough? Is part of it that he uses correct English? because doesn't that sound really regressive. ;)

His videos are like outtakes from some alternate universe version of Silence of the Lambs. Just watch this one in its entirety and pay attention. There are so many Lynch-like incidental details.

It feels like art, but it appears to be natural.

Seems like he deleted his old channel. He had a bunch of mechanic/electrician videos, mixed in between all the diaper ones. Was a good mix of informative and entertainment imo.

https://youtu.be/HU2weV9l2wM
Here he is talking about his meth and morphine problems and how they led to his drinking problem. Lots of really great druggie logic about how the combo of meth and morphine just makes him work! Yeah, buddy, they’ve clearly been working great.
Also, lots of really packed disturbing imagery as he vlogs it out. Every frame a masterpiece
“I’m not going to kill myself with drugs” just sounds so much more profound when it’s being said as an adult pair of diapered legs crawl into an enormous crib.

Fine, I won’t share the video where he says the n word.

He does live in Oregon
According to another video, he was a successful engineer at one point, but he got hooked on meth when he started hangin’ with Daddy, and that’s when he became a degenerate.

Imagine how many meals he’s made for Bore Taco Bell enthusiasts :drool
Also thx for this channel, I have great content to send my friends now.

He had a job lead at Taco Bell :kobeyuck
Hahaha, he’s taking slugs from a Hurricane! That’s mah boy!
This is how I imagine all white men who work at Taco Bell

Go to 8:15 if you want to hear him straight up admit he’s a pedophile. This video was apparently what got his old channel and vids nuked.

Get more black people owning the land they till, and we'll distance ourselves further and further from perpetual serfdom. At the same time, those communities will continue the legacy of educating our youth at a young age the truths of anti-blackness, it's pervasiveness across the globe, and what to expect when we interact with individuals outside of our enclaves. THAT is what is worth preserving, and what is effectively destroyed when we leave our communities in the dilapidated conditions their in to fend off the gentrification machines themselves. We don't need, and shouldn't need to create an oasis of black acceptance in areas where the non-black residents would no sooner call the police on us. We've already been given our "paradises", we just need to make a concerted effort to actually show it.

Thank you. Imagine if there are reserved seats for black people in every government job and every educational institution. Not because they're lesser than their white peers but as a recognition of the historical injustices that have left them underprivileged and vulnerable. Imagine black people rising up the power structure and using that power to transform their communities.
Imagine racism being punished with prison time rather than being brushed under the carpet as an inconvenient truth.
All the stuff I mentioned above? That's what we did in India. And yes, things aren't perfect. We're still working on our casteism. And yes, these laws are sometimes abused and exploited by folks under the garb of dalit protection. Just like some women exploit rape laws by filing false rape complaints. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't have rape laws, or that real rapes don't happen.
Our pro-dalit laws have transformed a rigid, millenia-old power structure that was brutal and regressive. A change like that is bound to be messy and difficult. But it's worth it.
America's race problem is rather like America's gun problem. Neither is unique to America, and other countries have made significant strides in solving them.
To implement those solutions will require Americans to compromise on some of their rights. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening any time soon.
Holy shit, that snowwhite user is trolling super hard. That rape analogy. :doge

Anyway, I’m going back to bed until reality decides to get interesting. I was having some weird revenge dream where I think I was getting back at some kid by breaking into his grandparents’ place and doing shit to their food maybe. I was definitely loitering around an oldsters place. It was a little incoherent and I’m probably connecting some dots that are actually unconnected, but it was promising. Maybe if I get back to dreaming I’ll finally work my way up to getting revenge on that kid. I’m going to try to go back to sleep while thinking “landscaping equipment.” Wish me luck, bros.

Discover your talents and use them to do and create great things.
If you have no real marketable skills or talents there's 3 options:
1. Learn how to run social-media ad campaigns and sell them to local businesses
2. Join the Trump administration
3. Become a porn actor
(the best thing about option 2 and 3 is that you can double profit by writing a book about it later)
Or if you really want to scrape at the bottom of the barrel but still want to get ahead:
4. Start a YouTube channel and become a pro in Fortnite

I had an OK boomer moment today too. I live next to an old peoples home. I returned from a long walk with my dog and from 1-2 streets away I could hear a car engine. Turning around the corner I could see all the fumes. There is a car parking in the parking lot of the old peoples home, just an ordinary car.
In disbelief I walked to our house and took the empty bag that I had left at the door knob. The engine still running. 3 minutes had passed for sure, and who knows for how long it had been parked like that! So I decided to check on it, maybe something hapoened. I walked back and looked knto the car from the driveway entry. Nobody sitting in it. Just an empty, fuming, running car.
I couldnt believe it. I walked to our fence and checked from there if I could see anybody. Car running another 3 minutes. That’s when I see someone just sneaked inside. I walk to the front again, wait 1-2 minutes when a man around 50-60 years old leaves the house carrying a TV packaging, walking to the car.
I yell at him that he’s not allowed to leave the car running like that and that I gotta live with the consequences way longer than he has. He just ignores me like the asshole he is.
what’s wrong with people?!

What will Crossing Eden and Cheebo talk about after TROS is released? These two dorks in particular have been a two-man SW shilling machine, Rian Johnson cheerleaders, and TLJ defenders non-stop for the past two years. I remember Crossing Eden being a huge Ubisoft fanboy back on NeoGAF. Defending every game Ubisoft made, no matter how generic and rote they were. Strangely enough, he transitioned from being a full-time Ubisoft defender to a Star Wars defender right around the release of The Last Jedi. Either he really loves Ubisoft and Star Wars, or the guy switched jobs in the advertising company he works for.

Careful, it's a slippery slope into becoming the next Excelsior or Mergurries Fred. You'll post stuff that has a bit of truth and then start believing in it so fervently that you forget you're trolling.

I'm with you there - i never felt envy of the money itself, or the material displays of wealth - it's the security you feel knowing that you won't ever be beholden to anyone unless you choose to be, and you never have to take another shitty job just to make ends meet. I've always wanted that as long as i can remember.

Models, body builders, actors, all do it.
Beautiful people are nice to look at, it's probably one of least weird concepts to grasp, i'd say.
Some fat neckbeard getting followers because he plays Nintendo games while saying nothing interesting on camera, is definitely harder to unpack.
But in general i think any "relationship" of this kind, is more utilitarian than you make it sound, whether it's about the tits, or the any song and dance, one can come up with.

I'm looking exclusively for an over-60, I'm not interested in young girls or some sad spinster waiting for an husband, I have a pointed sight towards old hags, possibly widowed in desperate search of some dick.
The more your vulva is dry and run-down, the more my swollen penis will cry lubricating and reading it to the climax.
I want to tighten your vaporous hair while I ride you violently and you think I might be your little nephew's best friend.
My dream is to extract my pulsating member from your avid mouth and that the new denture, still girding the glans, falls to the ground after a few seconds so that I can penetrate you once again like a stuffed turkey, but now your oral cavity will better serve my foreskin-armored soldier since your wet gums will gently slide along my tube.
I will lift your dropping tits revealing scars of an ancient love now sadly over just to cum all over them, infecting your mind with the idea of abandoning the religious practice in the pathetic parish of your little town, and I will go to mass with you explicitly to diabolically screw your loose ass inside the confessional with everyone present, who will think negatively of a lurid maniac caryatid such as yourself?
I will make your legs tremble like you just walked a whole flight of stairs and I will give up to you my place on the bus as long as you suck my cock, eagerly awaiting fresh, young seminal fluid so juicy that, dripping voluptously on your wrinkled, retired lips will make you desire to be fertile once again.
There is no "grandma's darling" of sorts that will stop me from slamming you against the wall like a crook which deceived you to enter your home.
I swear on everything that is holy that when I'll leave your stale smelling room leaving you creampied, weary and very close to join Heaven's army, yes, I swear on fucking God you will... You will give me a tip for the oratory's candies.

You gotta play with your assets tho.
If you're born with nice tits, but a shit sense of humor, you play those cards.
Besides, what passes for "interesting things to say" is extremely subjective, clearly, or channels like GameXplain wouldn't exist.
That said, if you're looking for tits there are clearly better avenues than Twicth to look for them, but i guess it's more of a GFE of sort, these ethots are selling.

had a couple of bullying encounters as a kid - once was partially my fault - I had a temper and I didn't know my own limits - and I'd get into fights with this huge kid all the time - he shouldn't have taken the bait and he certainly shouldn't have pummeled me as much as he did, but I often swung first after being verbally provoked. In that instance, we actually became friends eventually - and in high school we were acquaintances - but he went on to be an amateur heavyweight boxer and a cop and we lost touch til a couple of years ago (in a place where cops aren't bullies).

Even in countries where its easy to buy a gun, a big ass dog will fuck up any potential intruder / rapist with very little chance for the owner to be overpowered and have it turned against them.
Like, if you're a petite woman living alone, I can see how a big scary ass non-neutered attack dog is going to provide you some reassurance.

"Yeah, I had a bad temper and I picked on this fat kid all the time, but it's his fault for taking the bait."
So, basically Stinkles was the HS bully.
And his bullying drove this kid to become a cop so he could menace minorities with the same torments and humiliations he felt as a kid.
You hate to see it.

I was at a work meeting about 50 minutes ago, and during the lead up into it we were all talking about how our Thanksgiving break went. We talked about traveling and activities, and I brought up how I basically spent the entire break playing DQXI on the Switch.
Then, one of my co-workers said “Oh, that game? Yeah, I pirated it last year, but it was so buggy that I didn’t get far.”
And I was so flabbergasted. I literally said out loud “Dude, did you just admit to a crime?” This was at work, with everyone in the room clearly hearing him, including his superiors.
And he then just brushed it off like it was no big deal. I simply couldn’t believe how brazen that was.
I could understand opening up about this sort of stuff among friends, but at work? Honestly, I doubt he’d be reprimanded in any way, but good lord.
I’m not overreacting here, am I?

Still, tho. Can you imagine being the dude's co-worker?

One of my co workers called the cops on me a few years ago for watching a cam of that shitty Tupac film at work :cop :pimp :drudge :drudge :drudge

I was at a work meeting about 50 minutes ago, and during the lead up into it we were all talking about how our Thanksgiving break went. We talked about traveling and activities, and I brought up how I basically spent the entire break playing DQXI on the Switch.
Then, one of my co-workers said “Oh, that game? Yeah, I pirated it last year, but it was so buggy that I didn’t get far.”
And I was so flabbergasted. I literally said out loud “Dude, did you just admit to a crime?” This was at work, with everyone in the room clearly hearing him, including his superiors.
And he then just brushed it off like it was no big deal. I simply couldn’t believe how brazen that was.
I could understand opening up about this sort of stuff among friends, but at work? Honestly, I doubt he’d be reprimanded in any way, but good lord.
I’m not overreacting here, am I?

I cannot help noticing in real life how some really petite/short single girls have massive dogs, bigger than them, and the dogs are almost always male. And then I see shit like the above and well, I feel justified for always side-eyeing those girls :doge
Even in countries where its easy to buy a gun, a big ass dog will fuck up any potential intruder / rapist with very little chance for the owner to be overpowered and have it turned against them.
Like, if you're a petite woman living alone, I can see how a big scary ass non-neutered attack dog is going to provide you some reassurance.
Sure, sure, I know I'd like a big ass dog with me if I'm out alone at night (and to wrestle with ofc). But then you see some of these girls' social media profiles full of pictures of them posing with their dogs like they're their boyfriends or something and it gets weird fast.
Seeing someone letting her dog munch on her pussy for clicks just does not help with the mental image I get from some of these tiny chicks and their weird ass instagram posts with their huge doggos. I'm sure most of them are completely normal, but some are definitely worth the side eye. Like Alinity.

I'm looking exclusively for an over-60, I'm not interested in young girls or some sad spinster waiting for an husband, I have a pointed sight towards old hags, possibly widowed in desperate search of some dick.
The more your vulva is dry and run-down, the more my swollen penis will cry lubricating and reading it to the climax.
I want to tighten your vaporous hair while I ride you violently and you think I might be your little nephew's best friend.
My dream is to extract my pulsating member from your avid mouth and that the new denture, still girding the glans, falls to the ground after a few seconds so that I can penetrate you once again like a stuffed turkey, but now your oral cavity will better serve my foreskin-armored soldier since your wet gums will gently slide along my tube.
I will lift your dropping tits revealing scars of an ancient love now sadly over just to cum all over them, infecting your mind with the idea of abandoning the religious practice in the pathetic parish of your little town, and I will go to mass with you explicitly to diabolically screw your loose ass inside the confessional with everyone present, who will think negatively of a lurid maniac caryatid such as yourself?
I will make your legs tremble like you just walked a whole flight of stairs and I will give up to you my place on the bus as long as you suck my cock, eagerly awaiting fresh, young seminal fluid so juicy that, dripping voluptously on your wrinkled, retired lips will make you desire to be fertile once again.
There is no "grandma's darling" of sorts that will stop me from slamming you against the wall like a crook which deceived you to enter your home.
I swear on everything that is holy that when I'll leave your stale smelling room leaving you creampied, weary and very close to join Heaven's army, yes, I swear on fucking God you will... You will give me a tip for the oratory's candies.

lol, he made this TVC friendly thread about the smell of fecal matters.
https://www.resetera.com/threads/confession-time-i-like-the-smell-of-human-waste.148439/
I work in a restaurant since I was 22. I don't like the job too much, it's stressful and talking almost every single day with hundreds and hundreds of different people is more alienating than it seems.
There's only one precise reason I haven't quit yet outside of a good pay, and it's the pleasure I feel cleaning the bathroom stalls.
We have a special curry-based dish which is absolutely outstanding but brings anyone who decides to eat it to inevitably eject very odorous excrements almost every single time. The "I cannot wait to sit on the throne to expel this" type. Most of the time, they cannot resist the urge.
We sanityze the services every half an hour circa, and all my colleagues love me because during my shift I always volunteer to do it even if it's not part of my duty in that particular moment.
They take it as a kindness gesture, but they have no idea that it's actually an excuse to unleash the self-diagnosed paraphilia I have for the penetrating yet cozy smell the human body is capable to release.
I've read somewhere that in those incredible occasions we inhale miasma originated from some creature's defecation, your nose is actually breathing miniscule, imperceptible particles of, well, shit.
Being aware that through my respiratory system I am in fact ingesting human feces for some reason turns me on.
I don't feel the same thing for the mainstream, vulgar scent of urination, nor for the extreme, suffocating stench of not digested, retched food.
My appreciation derives exclusively from that which escapes the ass, the most ridiculous yet fascinating human appendice.
As I said, having worked for years in the same restaurant, in some rare, beautiful occasions I have become capable of recognizing the culprit of certain olfaction masterpieces, and of course knowing the origin, the source of such works of art can add or detract pleasure from my "masturbatory sessions", as I call them.
One evening the author was this gorgeous woman: she didn't show her age at all but she was around 50 years old, elegant even if a little supercilious, in a striking but not kitsch dress.
Well, the baby she laid in the stall lacked a certain "fullness", and from the remains which survived the flush I guessed that it probably was born ill, since the color tended more on the yellow/green side of the spectrum instead than the classic brown.
The smell, though.
I could spend hours explaining to you the overwhelming joy opening the door of the female bathroom that night.
It was like I could swim inside it, merging indefinitely to its molecules, transcending myself the divine.
I stayed there seven minutes to savor it, justifying myself to the collegues with trival motivations. It doesn't matter.
I have captured that woman's essence in a small glass vial I always bring with me in case this kind of discovery happens. While catching it, I remember I couldn't wait to go back home and finally reach the climax.
It is not simple masturbation mind you, my technique is closer to tantric sex, or even a seance.
Anyway, I exit the bog completely euphoric, and my glance crosses path with the neo-mother's one. Her embarassment was palpable, and for sure smiling to her in a proud manner didn't help getting any tips. I swear there was no malice in that act, it was a sincere compliment mixed with an honest surprise.
I admit I appreciate more a woman's evacuation to the one of a man's. Or, as I like to call them, anal ejaculations.
With time I have become an expert: I can easily deduce based on color, form, compactness and quantity the sex and age of the maker of what I find. I reduced my possibility of mistake to a max of 5 years or so, I'm not joking.
It is not coprophagia.
I see chewing and ingurgitating what a man expels as a vile, and also redundant practice. No, my affection is solely limited to the sense of smell, which we are used to underestimate but it's capable of powerful mnemonic experiences.
I still remember with teary eyes that time I realized my friend Bernard, who went to France for a few years for job related reasons, was back in my restaurant where he is a usual customer.
An inveterate chainsmoker and red wine enthusiast, his feces are basically a digital print: one swollen, leonine deuce, sorrounded by a crown of intestinal crumbs caused by an almost decayed liver.
I exited the stall happy like a kid seeing his father coming back from home, and I embraced him. He's very fat, and I can tell that he has trouble cleaning himself up. He still reeked of that mesmerizing odor.
But I love how they just have to add he was racist. it's plainly visible he deserves a ban but toss in racist just to CYA.

This is standard policy. Activision has the same in place, at least when I worked there.
EA legal also will work w you to ensure that everything is kosher - they do NOT just swoop in and "take" your creative works outside of the company.
I've published a book and am producing a movie short. EA has been incredibly supportive of both and is not claiming either. Two of my colleagues have published children's books w the same support and hands-off treatment re: ownership.
There are things to get mad about in this industry. This isn't it.
The scary ban man has become such a corporate hack :neogaf
At my company I applaud people working on their own stuff. The only thing we have is a right of first refusal on any new client starting a certain sum.
They can even use our facilities outside of working hours for their own projects or host workshops, network events and stuff. Seems like a waste to have an office building vacant during weekends when the space can be put to good use.
If our designers want to make logo's for local businesses in their free time or whatever to develop their skills they are free to do so. It also fosters a culture of sharing between our workers.
Some of them work together outside of office hours on their pet projects.
But I'm easily one of the coolest employers around in my area so :idont

Reminds me of a funny moment I had maybe ten or so years ago. Getting home from school, I had forgot my keys at home, so I waited at the McDonald's up the street until one of my parents got home. A few minutes after getting some nuggets and setting up my Macbook at a booth with an outlet, I noticed there was a cop having a sit a couple tables away from me. Maybe about 30 or so minutes away, the cop came up to me and asked about advice on using MacOS, as he was confused since he just got an Apple as well (don't remember which laptop he had). Upon assisting, he asked me some advice on using uTorrent as it "looked different from the PC version so [he] felt kinda lost". This felt like a huge trap in my brain, so I just said I never heard of the program. I went back to my seat after we were done talking and chilled for maybe another 15-20 minutes before I was able to head home.

Hi, I fucked up and combine that with other things in our relationship, we broke up. I am so unsure how I can go on, my heart is broken. She was my best and only friend, the only person I had in my life that I loved/love. I want her back and I know that's impossible, but I just feel crushed. She was/is my angel, my favourite person, but most importantly, my best friend. Someone I'd never want to be without.
I thought I'd grow old with her, now I know I wont and I just want to die. I have never felt like this. The worst feeling of it all is, after a 6 year relationship, her saying she didn't really get anything good out of it and that also when we broke up last time which lasted a week she was crying when she broke it off, this time it seems like this time she is genuinely happy we are over, meanwhile I am so sad, I am just crushed, it makes me feel super unloved that it seems like she doesn't care. She did end up crying in the end. But most of the conversation, which was not fight at all, she didn't seem to care.
I know I will get a "time heals all" response and I guess maybe it does, but I don't see it ever healing, ever. I have Borderline Personality Disorder so I am very scared and emotionally destroyed by rejection, so this isn't going well, lots of suicidal ideation and self harm thoughts, I can't be without her, I at least need her as my best friend, I have no family or friends, she is literally the only person I talk to because my parents abused me and when I got really bad mentally 6 years ago all my friends stopped speaking to me because I stopped drinking and partying. I am seeing my psych this afternoon... I just feel like my heart has been stomped on. Plus I am 26, unemployed, mentally ill, can't leave my house and on disability pension. Who in the living hell would want to ever date me?
Someone please help or something... I dunno.

EDIT:
Actually it maybe what he needs.
Looking at the OP post history it seems like he was chatting to another girl on Tinder and got caught.
You live and you learn OP.
pretty much, she said she was gay and no longer wanted to have sex with males, but she didnt want to break up, then 3 months went by and she hadn't made up her mind on how we move forward, so she said "lets have an open relationship starting next week" But I started talking to a girl literally like 4 days before the open relationship officially started so she told me thats cheating and she broke up with me.

Well here's the thing, she has lived with me for 6 years, never paid rent, internet, anything like that, it was all paid for by me. She has no where to go, so even though she dumped me yesterday, due to my fear of abandonment I asked her to continue living with me, she still is texting me love you when she went to work this morning, still sleeping in my bed, giving me hugs and kisses, I am still paying rent.... but we are broken up.... I feel like she is using me but I am so afraid of being alone that I don't want to say anything to her. I didn't include this in the OP because it makes me look way more pathetic and like a push over

Still in the Google Cache though:
Okay so things haven't been great for a while, then I really fucked up because I was wanting validation and to feel like I was still desirable (talking to a girl on tinder). She found out, and long story short she doesn't know if she wants to stay with me. We are doing couples therapy next week but the wait is killing me, I feel so sick and just distressed, I have no one in my life except her, no friends, family, nothing, only her and I love her so much. If she leaves me I don't know how I can continue living. We have been together and living together for 6 years, I don't know how I'd adjust from that...... Plus I am disabled/mentally ill and can't leave my house, so who would ever want to date someone like me, I'll be alone forever. but even besides that I just don't want to lose my girlfriend.
How do I deal with this? I don't want to kill myself but it seems like the only way out. It makes it hard too, because she keeps saying she doesn't know if she can stay with me, but in the mean time she's still giving me kisses, cuddles and saying how much she loves me. I am just so confused and terrified. I can't be alone. no one will ever want to be with me. Someone help. I am home alone right now and I am scared of what I'll do.
She doesn't have anywhere to go, she can't afford to move out, she just started a new job in a new city, I help her a lot with money, she has no car. So I am hoping this makes her want to stay. I am just so fucking afraid. I want to die. I have made a lot of progress on my eating disorder but never sought treatment for my BPD and now it's all blown up in my face. I have made an appointment to start DBT for next week the day before the couples counselling.
Please be kind even if you think I am pathetic or an asshole, I am scared for myself and my relationship and I feel terrible for being doing an asshole thing.
EDIT: and yes, besides starting treatment for my BPD next week, and the couples counselling, I also saw my psych two days ago and spoke to her about it, so I am seeking professional help, I just want to know if anyone here has been through similar.
Thank you, this means a lot, and you are right, that I am so willing to change, I have spent hours today trying to get the first appointment possible for helping my BPD. I need and want to change. But unfortunately you are right that I don't believe that it can get better. I am a fuck up, I cut my wrists so many times the last few days and I haven't done that in a while.
Back in October: https://www.resetera.com/threads/anyone-here-have-borderline-personality-disorder-and-gone-through-a-breakup.146850/
I'm so scared, about a week and a half ago my girlfriend told me she thinks shes gay, and im 100% supportive of her, I dont want her to repress her sexuality, that's not fair and it's not her fault. But, I am absolutely terrified, she wants to stay with me because she loves me and says that her emotions are stronger than her sexual desire, but she has said we can't have sex again, she doesn't like having sex with men. So... I reluctantly agreed. But I am not an idiot, I know she will break up with me, I don't know how I would live without her, it's been 6 years, I've been with her since i was 20 years old, I was only diagnosed with BPD last year but I can see how it has been affecting me forever, I don't know how I can continue to go on living when she leaves?
I am on disability pension due to my BPD, OCD, PTSD and can't leave my house due to Agoraphobia and Panic Disorder, I will never be able to find someone to be with when she leaves, I am so afraid, she's my best friend and I don't want to lose her and I don't want to be alone forever.... please help me guys, im so scared.
To top it off, I am starting to realise that the thoughts I've suppressed my whole life about being trans may actually be real and I am looking into a psych that specialises in that area, but I don't want to tell me girlfriend about that, I am suffering huge dysphoria right now, and not just about gender but about life, I am so scared about being alone, I don't know how I'd continue to live, I am just feeling so trapped and terrified right now. I don't have family, my mum is an alt-right weirdo, my sisters have their own things, my dad abused me, I have no one except my girlfriend
I'm in Australia, I am very paranoid and hate those lines because I don't trust that they wont send emergency services and have me hospitalised, I'm not suicidal or anything so I don't want to go through that hassle.

Hi guys, so long story short, I am disabled and require my mother to pretty much get all my food and organise all my doctors appointments and whatever else. but the last 3 or so years she's gone insane, I can't have a 10 minute conversation with her without her telling me about "big pharma" or Hilary running pedophile rings (we arent even american so I dont even know why shes so obsessed with hilary, but its relentless) she thinks that the reason kids in Africa look starving is because Bill Gates is giving them "vaccines" to kill them for population control. I rang her yesterday and asked her if she could get me medicine from the pharmacy and she started telling me how many "chemtrails" are in the air right now poisoning us. Even simple things like dogs being desexed to her is a conspiracy by the government because for some reason she thinks they dont want us to have dogs.
I don't know what to do, relying on someone that is making my life hell is really really hard, its gotten so bad that I legit have felt like killing myself to escape her, being disabled means my life is already pretty crappy but all day the only person I have on this planet to look after me and care for me is obsessed with far right conspiracies and nazi style views on race. She is obsessed and no matter how many times I tell her I don't care and that it's all bullshit she keeps trying to "Brain Force Plus" me. it's not fair for her to do this to me when I have severe mental problems and physical problems.
What can I do? if I don't have her I will have no one but honestly, at this point it feels like mental abuse and that she's purposefully trying to make me upset or angry. I have been contemplating suicide and I know you guys may think that's an overreaction to this, but just picture being trapped 24/7 with a nazi/alt-right person who wont shut up about it and being completely defenseless.
Is there anything you guys can suggest? I'm at my wits end.
Sorry if this is a dumb thread, I don't know where to go for help.
My disabilities are weird, I am mentally disabled due to a brain trauma I had when crashed my motorbike as a child so I find it extremely hard to concentrate on stuff and I start panicking and can become so bad I can start having minor convulsions. Physically I can walk probably about 30 metres before I need to sit for around half an hour due to that same accident. My spine was completely messed up in the accident.
I am unsure whats available where I am, I'm very remote in an Aboriginal community so services are very very limited. But there has to be something and I will definitely start googling and try to get some info
I did a while ago but everything I found was at least 2 hours away from me because the government doesnt fund aboriginal majority areas very well. and yeah I receive my social security money directly into my bank account, but she has full control over my social security account because shes marked as my carer, so she can ring and cancel it whenever she wants which scares me because she is vindictive enough to maybe do it, I need to get that right taken away from her but I dont know what to do.
But... wait:
I did have a girlfriend at one point but..... yeah, didnt work out. She couldn't handle all the stress of my mother combined with my disabilities, my mother would always say horrible things about her and it ran her off.
:huh
-
Well here's the thing, she has lived with me for 6 years, never paid rent, internet, anything like that, it was all paid for by me. She has no where to go, so even though she dumped me yesterday, due to my fear of abandonment I asked her to continue living with me, she still is texting me love you when she went to work this morning, still sleeping in my bed, giving me hugs and kisses, I am still paying rent.... but we are broken up.... I feel like she is using me but I am so afraid of being alone that I don't want to say anything to her. I didn't include this in the OP because it makes me look way more pathetic and like a push over

April 1st: https://www.resetera.com/threads/mental-health-era-ot2-community-and-understanding.95803/post-19444604
After 6 longs years of being debilitatingly sick from gastroparesis and OCD I have started trying medicinal cannabis and it seems to be working, I am also now prescribed Testosterone as my Test levels were really really low. This combination has worked pretty good for my mental health. Except I am having vivid dreams about my ex from over 6 years ago, dreams we are getting back together and all this stuff, then because the dreams are super vivid I am obsessing about it all day.
Problem is, I have a girlfriend that I love, but man, my current girlfriend and I have been together for 6 years and she is just miserable all the time, sex is bland, she never seems to enjoy it or initiate it, she is always angry, always, things are going well for her, she is studying nursing at university, she doesnt pay any rent, my mother gives her money so she can study and doesnt have to worry about working and study at the same time. But she is just angry all the time, its like she cant see how much is being handed to her and how much her life is going well, my mother has given her a car to drive, free gas/petrol for the car, free rent and a wage but she doesnt seem to understand that not many people are that privileged and she still complains, she does have depression and was sexually assaulted as a teen by her step father so I get she has problems herself but she REFUSES, I mean vehemently REFUSES to go see someone and get help, she thinks they will make it worse, I cant handle it, and then the dreams of my ex make it worse because I reminisce on being with her as when I was with her I wasnt sick, I was healthy, outgoing and happy, for some reason my mind wants me to try and get back with her despite me not talking to her more than half a decade and her being mentally abusive.
Sorry, this is rambling and may be confusing, but long story short, I am having really vivid dreams of my ex from over 6 years ago. I miss her and voices in my head tell me to contact her (I am not going to contact her), my current girlfriend of 6 years who has stuck by me during my hospital stays and everything else is just miserable all the time and I am missing having a loving happy person in my life and for some reason my mind wants me to run back to an emotionally abusive ex just because I was healthy and happy back then. My psych brought up BPD with me and suggested I may have it, maybe I do, I do have the obsession with never being alone and wanting multiple partners incase I am abandoned.
Sorry guys for the long post, I just needed to vent and maybe get advice. As I am having panic attacks over this, I feel like getting in car and either driving into a tree or driving a long way away and going missing, i dont want to deal with these dreams or my angry girlfriend anymore.

Hey Khaled, thank you for opening up about this. While I can understand why you might be having dreams about your ex during this moment, it's important to take a step back and realize that you might be romanticizing the relationship some. All relationships have rough patches, and this would be true if you were with your ex as well, especially if she was mentally abusive.
Since your girlfriend has depression, it's possible that she's aware of how privileged she is to have all of this support, but that she is still struggling because depression isn't as easy to fix as that for some people. For some people, it can actually exacerbate the issue as they wonder why they still feel that way despite everything afforded to them. I do think that you have the right idea about her needing to see a professional for help, would you be willing to elaborate a little on why she doesn't want to see one? You say that she feels they'll make it worse, but do you know why she feels that way?

Still in the Google Cache though:
Okay so things haven't been great for a while, then I really fucked up because I was wanting validation and to feel like I was still desirable (talking to a girl on tinder). She found out, and long story short she doesn't know if she wants to stay with me. We are doing couples therapy next week but the wait is killing me, I feel so sick and just distressed, I have no one in my life except her, no friends, family, nothing, only her and I love her so much. If she leaves me I don't know how I can continue living. We have been together and living together for 6 years, I don't know how I'd adjust from that...... Plus I am disabled/mentally ill and can't leave my house, so who would ever want to date someone like me, I'll be alone forever. but even besides that I just don't want to lose my girlfriend.
How do I deal with this? I don't want to kill myself but it seems like the only way out. It makes it hard too, because she keeps saying she doesn't know if she can stay with me, but in the mean time she's still giving me kisses, cuddles and saying how much she loves me. I am just so confused and terrified. I can't be alone. no one will ever want to be with me. Someone help. I am home alone right now and I am scared of what I'll do.
She doesn't have anywhere to go, she can't afford to move out, she just started a new job in a new city, I help her a lot with money, she has no car. So I am hoping this makes her want to stay. I am just so fucking afraid. I want to die. I have made a lot of progress on my eating disorder but never sought treatment for my BPD and now it's all blown up in my face. I have made an appointment to start DBT for next week the day before the couples counselling.

Can we at least agree that this is an US specific problem?
All of the people that live in the EU have stated to have never heard of something so extreme.
Because there seems to be a disconnection in understanding here.
Never worked outside the EU, and I had such clauses in my contracts, yes. It is definitely not an US-only thing.
i am always baffled how Era on the one hand positions itself as this gathering place for gaming insiders, yet frequently half the posters are baffled when hearing about something that is absolute standard in the industry (whether the rule is bad or not doesn’t change fact that a ton of people on this forum who love to tell devs what to do are rather clueless about the industry).
Sure. The standard is in the EU that if you work for a company like in my case Disney, I'm not allowed to write a book about a girl that has a rare disease. That's what is in your made up contract? Sure, I believe you, I really do. Talk about posting in bad faith.
you wanted to write this and disney told you that you couldn’t?
No they did not, because there's no such clause.
Weird that I worked for Disney for years, shipping a multiplatform title with them, AND had that clause in my contract
Really, really weird
Just strange

Australia. Why is this such a big deal to you? It has nothing to do with the thread, troll outside mental health threads. Take your puritanical american shit elsewhere. Literally no one found it weird. Either from her family, mine, friends or people she worked with. No one cared because it's not strange where I'm from.
Cool well since in accused of being in an inappropriate relationship when I wasn't. May as well leave the trolls for now and go see my psych (who also didn't find the age gap weird)
I don't think you know what Romeo and Juliet laws are. Age of consent is 16. It's only under that, that Romeo and Juliet laws even apply. If you're over 16 you can sleep with anyone above 16 as long as they aren't a police or teacher. Not only that. But I'm not from South Australia. It even literally says in your link that South Australia is the exception and not the rule. But you used that link because it fit your narrative.
Try better next time troll.
Imagine comjng to a mental health to troll and spread misinformation and puritanical shit that is completely off topic and irrelevant and also false. That's some next level cuntery.
You are trolling, I am not from South Australia or Tasmania so everything you've linked doesn't apply to me.
I mean just read the wikipedia article, you are wrong and you're trying to troll. You are choosing two states out of many to prove a point and I don't live in either of those.
In NSW the limited age of consent (meaning no teachers or cops) is 16, she was legal.

Australia. Why is this such a big deal to you? It has nothing to do with the thread, troll outside mental health threads. Take your puritanical american shit elsewhere. Literally no one found it weird. Either from her family, mine, friends or people she worked with. No one cared because it's not strange where I'm from.
Cool well since in accused of being in an inappropriate relationship when I wasn't. May as well leave the trolls for now and go see my psych (who also didn't find the age gap weird)

And here I thought it was the other way 'round. I kid I kid.. the problem the "left" has is that its an umbrella term so broad it's members can tell each other apart with such ease because it covers everything from a simple planned economy, to stateless societies and single state dictatorships. Communism, socialism, anarchism, social democracy, democratic socialism, eco socialism... Take your pick. I'd love to see "the left" spoken of only in the contex of planned economic policies but that would be too hard wouldnt it. Seems today, being leftist means you are pro choice, not religious, PC pro rights and bonus points if you cal yourself non bnary. All those wolnerful buzzwords that sell clicks.

My grandmother passed away early last year. 2016 was the last presidential election she was able to vote in, and she cast her vote for Clinton. Sometimes I think about how close she came to seeing a woman president in her lifetime, and how that was ripped away from her by such a complete fucking jackass as Trump. It's almost as depressing to me as any of the other consequences we've suffered under his presidency.

I mean, it wasn't "ripped away from her" by Trump. It was done by the general population of the US who fucking either voted for that scumbag or who decided that Hilary Clinton was ever a decent candidate for president.

My grandmas both died in the last couple of years. Both lived long enough to see Thatcher and May elected, and were ruled by a Queen. I don't think it made a huge difference to either of them, to be honest. I don't think it made much of an impact on sexism in the country at all, really. Geri Haliwell wearing a twat-brushing union flag dress probably had a bigger effect.

Dem's don't want to put Bernie forward because it'd show their Neoliberal dog leash owners that people are sick of income inequality, job insecurity/cost of living, etc. issues are more important than "gay mayo pete that did jack shit for the blacks (Hi, TIMU!</self-meme>)" or "she has an ACTUAL vagina (oh god, please ignore the fact she is copying Bernie's policies and then deleting them because VAGINA SHOULD DISTRACT YOU, RIGHT BREEDERS?)" faux-progressive candidate posturing.
(*Gag* at >implying Mayo Pete is a progressive.)

They'll elect a gay so long as he's white and Christian. Those are the important two apparently.

I highly doubt it. Blacks, especially from his city absolutely loathe him. You can see it on Twitter: https://twitter.com/hashtag/MayoPete?src=hashtag_click https://twitter.com/hashtag/PetebuttigiegisalyingMF?src=hashtag_click
They can push him all they want (and it's worrying that it works minorly on ultra stupid people: He was doing like 1% before the Iowa polls which put him at 7% or so) but if he's the candidate, like Sundowner (hi, 9/11 warmonger!) Biden (https://metalgear.fandom.com/wiki/Sundowner), the democrats will have slit their wrists this election cycle. With Pete, it'd be a deeper cut/faster bleedout because everyone fucking hates him beyond rich white gays that don't know better and wino moms that don't know better.

That article, yes. But folks/blacks in South Bend hate him because he did jack-shit for them. I don't have actual articles (hence, check Twitter/etc.) [Edit: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/04/22/south-bend-poor-say-democrat-pete-buttigieg-left-them-behind.html <---Here's one for you] to link you with his policies and pushing there, but South Bend was ran ultra poorly for blacks to where the "grapevine" of the black community has a strong (and reasonable given his history/etc.) distrust for Pete.
It's less "they hate him because he's gay!" (Just like Warren defenders do the "oh you just hate her because she's a woman/has a vagina!!!" defense [Hi PoliBore!]) and more "he's a fuck awful candidate that is only still in the race because he has one 'quality' that diversifies him in the race: That he's :supergay "
Thing is: Even non-rich white gays (hi, me!) hate Pete because he's a faux candidate.
I know I've linked it a lot in the past, but Transmetropolitan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmetropolitan) is still relevant all these years later for election cycles. I swear it should be required reading in high-schools (mostly joking): Pete is the democrats Smiler this election, just in this case he's (thankfully) no chance in hell (*knock on wood*) of winning.

This can't be understated. While I'm all for everyone getting their shot, having their time on the national stage, we do need to narrow the field before we hit the first primaries.
There were some serious issues with Harris but the hate for her is really indicative of the hate for black women. Online and offline conversations about her always tended towards double standard. I hope she is someone's VP or in cab.
This is pretty much where I'm at. A lot of people aren't slick. See the memes in this thread already.
Thanks. That shit looks real. Like she is wearing a costume or something and "playing" like she is arresting someone. I was wondering what the point of this was but I guess the joke is that whole era saying that she's "a cop" or something (prosecutor)?
It was made so people would share it and believe it real (like you).

Narrowing the field is the last thing these "progressives" should want, especially now that it's clear that Sanders + Warren is not only not a majority but not even a clear plurality within the primary. The best path to the nomination for either of them is more candidates who fail to get in double digits through Super Tuesday.

I'm certainly not blaming you for how candidates (and not just Harris) are depicted online and by the media, and we've all been guilty of cynicism in this sphere (above, I sarcastically invoked the anti-Bernie/Biden/Warren meme talking-points), I'm more just tired of the landscape of political discourse.

INFORMATION
Unfortunately, unscrupulous ad makers are especially active towards the end of the year -- almost any ad supported site will experience some problems during this time. Neither the site nor our ad agency actually reap any additional benefit from malicious ads, these aren't supposed to be running, and we have every reason to hate them as much as you do.
We are in contact with our agency about this and we're doing what we can to track down these bad ads as they emerge (it's like whack-a-mole). Your reports and details are helping in this process and we ask that they be concentrated in the Ad Reporting thread. Thank you for your patience.

ah yes, of course. thats why every site on the internet gets malware ads in december. :doge

we were always going to get Trump again. If you haven't noticed, you haven't been paying attention.

I mean, it wasn't "ripped away from her" by Trump. It was done by the general population of the US who fucking either voted for that scumbag or who decided that Hilary Clinton was ever a decent candidate for president.
The general population preferred Clinton, but the electoral college voted for Trump. Some people's votes are just worth more. :trumps

it's too bad no one told hillary how the electoral college worked before she ran for president so poorly

I don’t trust Tulsi, but she’s a useful attack dog, like Christie was for Trump.
Cristi, while being an asshole, never struck me a “foreign collusion” type like tulsi/trump

I would be surprised if most of the remaining black community posters aren’t fed up with that place by now, especially after the KetKatKrew’s noisy little insurrection. Time and again Resetera shows them that as long as the privileged white people with problems are trans and/or non-binary, any one of their problems are more important than all of the problems faced by the black community.

Marketing Synergy
https://www.resetera.com/threads/disney%E2%80%99s-marketing-merchandising-plan-for-frozen-2-is-unprecedented-and-devilish-frozen-2-open-spoilers.156889/ (https://www.resetera.com/threads/disney%E2%80%99s-marketing-merchandising-plan-for-frozen-2-is-unprecedented-and-devilish-frozen-2-open-spoilers.156889/)
Frozen 2 (which both myself and my 4yo find to be a fantastic movie) had an incredible and deceptive marketing push. They have every product under the sun available - toys, dresses, bedding, phone cases - you name it.
But the marketing blitz is more devious than you’d expect. In all the merchandise, it’s not “right”. Elsa isn’t wearing her new signature dress. Anna is missing her queen dress and crown. And they aren’t even featuring the right song! All the marketing and merchandise is pushing “Into the Unknown”, but when you see the movie, it’s obvious that “Show Yourself” is meant to be the next “Let it Go”.
Why is this interesting?
Because this is just the first phase. I fully expect Disney to repackage and resell nearly identical merchandise within the next few weeks and months with the new signature styles. You’ll see “Show Yourself” Elsa doll launch whenever the marketing blitz hits with “Show Yourself” as the featured song for the inevitable singalong re-release. This will be a full new line of Frozen merchandise with no required new movie
Disney just released (now that Black Friday / Cyber Monday) the signature dress up dresses exclusively on their site for $80. EIGHTY DOLLARS for the only available new Elsa/Anna dresses that little kids will actually want for Christmas.

Can’t tell if this is a shtick or not, also don’t care, but it’s like $200 for a license. The issue would be migrating the threads over to it.
Dark theme would take you like a half hour and it’s free. At least give us that. :fbm

The bire already has a mobile theme http://www.thebore.com/forum/index.php?wap2 :doge

Imo Xenforo with whatever default or even somewhat customized theme would change the board's vibe, if just that there's a certain raw quality about older board themes that suits the posts, unlike many boards' Fisher-Price'd themes that have migrated to other software.
If the same theme was recreated it'd be fine (though unlikely) but at the same time making the site more mobile friendly and adding a dark would only require stylesheet additions and changes anyway, it's just no one has yet spent the time to.

The experience would be designed to feel mentally and physically taxing, the “player” would be meant to feel like they are outnumbered and outgunned (reflected in gameplay mechanics). The social commentary here? Well I’m still working that out.

I mean, your covered by the state with your healthcare as well as a bed and food daily. You are given shelter over your head as well. You have time to read books and watch TV from time to time and possibly get a college degree.

It's really embarrassing how you keep trying to defend it as satire, what is it satirizing? it's ironic? In what way?
Y'all are just paving the way for the deepfake future one bad "joke" at a time

IDK why I did this
Nice one. For my own tests I stripped it down to only the color modifications and it's a fairly decent color scheme.
Edit: and would probably be a good time to update my avatar to APNG given its wider browser support in the last couple years (ie: Chromium finally got their act together :doge).

I’m willing to still give it a shot since the reviews in my feed have been overwhelmingly positive so far. I completely understand though where people are coming from in regards to distrusting Eastwood particularly in regards to the current climate it’s being released in. The movie might be nuanced but of course there’d be many hesitant to believe that when it’s delivered from a distinctly non-nuanced person.
Maybe you can grab a Chick-Fil-A after the movie?

Tbh, Pewds is based enough to know not to live in a country with no self-defense laws (therefore everything ripe for the picking). Time to move to that Japan house, where the culture is a lot better, permanently.
Time to upgrade that pellet gun Felix. Wouldn't be supprised if he really does move to Japan.
Until I started going to Japan more regularly, I didn't really appreciate how much of a mental burden is relieved on one's self when you don't have to worry in the back of your head about getting mugged or burgled all the time.
It's very liberating.
...
FYI, his house in Japan got robbed, not the UK.

The house was in Japan? Maybe I am too naive, but never imagined this could happen there.

One of the reasons why Trump rally cry of demonize the FBI and the Media is effective is because a lot of people don’t trust them because stuff like this. RE need to quote distinguished mentally-challenged zoomer articles about how real life offends them is so pathetic.

Should have bought an apartment instead. He probably isn't there most of the time, so it was only a matter of time before he got robbed. There would have been much less of a chance of that happening if he bought a luxury apartment. Almost zero chance in fact.

Seems pretty unlikely that's the case. Much more likely that Valve went out of their way to buy Campo Santo for the express purpose of canning their game, burning all the assets, and forcing them to make Dota hats against their will instead.

Actually, I think you can go into the user panel some way and see who has liked your posts and stuff. Or it's a simple query, so you could already have a ledger for users to see where their forum social credit score is coming from and blacklist accordingly.

'liking' non-slick posts would be so inflammatory, but not quite explicit enough to be deemed as an indictment of inflammation that nobody should get to like anything. So you can 'like' posts in your head canon, you animals.

Firewatch was shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.
I stopped playing after that scene with the skinny dippers. I think I had the graphics on low or something because as soon as the audio ended the black silhouette graphic model just instantly blipped out of existence, like in lazy RPG's where an NPC or piece of environment pops in or out of existence when you interact. I expect that sorta stuff from a stat-based game like Skyrim but not a story/immersion game like this where it goes through the trouble of showing your character's hands and other fidelities like that.

ioi, the founder of VGChartz no longer does anything with the numbers.
Hardware numbers are marked as estimates and get readjusted once official numbers get released.
Software numbers have already stopped at the end of 2018 because they are too unreliable and VGC now switched to only report on official and sourced shipped numbers.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/noname-black-female-rapper-may-quit-music-says-she-won’t-perform-for-mostly-white-audiences.157059/
Seems like she should ban white people from her shows. If she only wants minority attention, she should be prepared to make a lot less money, though. Still, if she has convictions that her music is not for white people, then she should stick to them.
Thankfully artists are not able to ban people from their shows based on race in the US.
Perhaps not legally, but I'm sure if she made it known that white people aren't welcome at her shows, most of them would get the message.
:kobeyuck

Not really surprising. But of course some people will get angry instead of listening. They never seem to want to listen.
seems like her problem is with the only people who are listening :teehee

I am a rapper myself, i am black. I've performed in front of crowds of all racial mixtures. I can empathize with it feeling differently depending on the composition.
I'm more about just generating connections in general, by sharing my life's experiences. If I can connect through my art the person doesn''t matter. Noname and I have different motivations.
She puts so much value into performing for black people, into sharing her black experience with black people. So she isn't getting what she wants out of it and is frustrated.
I have no idea how she'll get what she wants, outside of only booking shows where she feels black people will dominate the audience.
Damn I feel like I'm talking about discrimination.

Lots of people in that thread just outright posting that people of color can't afford to go to her shows. :hitler

If it says it can't find your account information: It's been deleted.

Ya, for him, it'd be for tax purposes. For me, the main benefit would be I'd be able to get on his admittedly awesome insurance plan as his spouse.
We're not looking for emotional or mental benefits, purely fincancial. We're not in love, we're not even gay. It'd be quite literally a "friends with benefits" thing.
What if he actually secretly has a thing for you?

...because the tools you are ignorant of, are the main products Valve has been putting out for the last 10 years now. You professed to having less knowledge than a 5 year old about the main products the company you are bashing are putting out. That you don't understand how your comments about engines and tools relates to valve is precisely the point.
Your comment makes no sense in the wake of what valve, the company, actually does. They provide their main audience -- developers -- with tools that they have been begging for, for decades. The only other company providing those kinds of products are Microsoft with Windows.
You outright don't know what you're talking about here. Calling them a "kiss of death" is really, really dumb. Even when they don't go forward with a product, like when they decided not to continue with Jerry Elsworth's CastAR, they are NOT a kiss of death. The exact opposite -- look at how companies like EA treats employees working on said products, where you are forbidden on working on anything not in the company's interest. Then, look at CastAR and their VR tech, both of which they gave away completely free of money.
Valve does the exact opposite of what you're implying. They are not at all a kiss of death. They pump out lots of stuff, and when they don't want to proceed with something, unlike virtually the rest of the entire industry, they give their former employees their blessing to continue it outside the company without penalty.
You are talking about the "valve kiss of death"
Valve's primary business is making tools. You outright don't know what you're talking about.

Huh? I don't understand. You mean Era needs to sit down and understand our concerns more in regards to very real & Black issues like this?
Similar to the TransEra discussion between moderation and members of the community I imagine. On common problems in threads and the elements that the community have to put up with that leads to members of it either shying away from threads about them and their issues, or having to endure a ream of dismissive, insulting or condescending comments. It was said that similar would be extended to other minority communities in the forum that have long-since been putting up with the same/similar, and a staff post detailing the changes enacted and proposals going forward is still pending.
So here's my thing about that and how it applies to this No Name thread. If they want to address how to handle obvious racism on the forum, they got to be ready to take the criticism.
It won't be a good decision and highly uncomfortable for anyone not Black. I and a lot of other people don't bother posting because of this. Even in this very thread I see it's like clockwork.
If the mods & Era wanna do Black folks better they know where we are.
Anyway No Name, speaks from a place of understanding. If white folks wanna say it's reverse racism, which doesn't exist because of societal power structures more power to them. I doubt they won't see a warning or ban about expressing that in this thread
That’s understandable. It’s not my place to suggest what solution would be appropriate. I’m only speaking to something that was set up regarding issues like that which I mentioned within threads around the trans community, it was within a private Discord and moderated by a third party that both sides trusted. FeistyBoots was a part of it and believe it was what she was referring to. Obviously the proof is in the pudding and that’s still largely in the oven, so we’ll see. Didn’t mean to imply the impetus for that should reside with yourself or others in the community, apologies if it came across that way.

Anyone who uses alternate definitions of racism (power + prejudice) are so desperate to not be called racists and use it as some sort of shield against criticism. If you want to spout racist shit, own up to it and accept your racism and stop being a coward. We don't live 100 years ago. Racism isn't ONLY institutional or systemic. You dorks.

Bernie has not spoken about Tulsi positively or other otherwise I think aside from this. Bernie has also not disavowed Buttigieg or Yang, despite disagreeing with them. I wouldn't read that as an endorsement.
Only if you're paying no attention at all
No it is insane. It's also improper. And frankly has only helped Tulsi's polling and fundraising so thanks.

After the unwanted hug he gave Dave Weigel and now this, it really sements Yang as the ickiest candidate, which is really saying something with Biden also in the race.

Yea, you may as well cross him off the list now.

As in the title, many a time I'll be at a stop sign waiting for traffic to pass, then a vehicle slows and brakes for me
I gesture not unlike this
Like...why are you breaking right of way for me lol. I am not special, I am just another vehicle on the road with the same rules applying
I was thinking of making a similar thread. This situation is frustrating:
I am heading towards a stop sign. I am pretty far away from it though. A car is stopped at the stop sign and it goes across my street path. They should just go. I’m nowhere near them and they have all the time to cross, and I should be stopping anyways. But they don’t go. They wait until I stop at the stop sign and then they just let me go. But if they just went, I could have not stopped or just slowed down.

Like, engaging with her art allows me to say "wow I understand her experience" and give myself a pat on the back for that without ever truly having to deal with what it means to actually live that experience.

Oh my god, in the US you guys have a pledge you have to recite every morning? That is way funny for a country so proud of their freedom.
Hopefully you guys at least don't hang a photo of your Dear Leader.
I wonder about this. I am moving to the US next year with my Australian child and she is young so by the time she goes to school she will probably feel 'American' I guess (moving when 3) but I don't want her to do it if she doesn't have to as she isn't American.. Is it actually forced? Can I say I want it to be her choice as she isn't American or is this just a weird pointless thing I need to accept?
Considering the fact that "under god" was not in the original pledge, but was added to differentiate us from the godless commies, fuck the pledge. It's nothing more than a tool for indoctrination.

That was on NeoGAF.com, Titanoboa admitted to possibly deliberately harming people he suspected to be Trump/Sanders (?) supporters when drawing blood. Someone called attention to it, they were banned, Titanoboa's username was changed and the posts deleted.
https://www.neogaf.com/threads/playtonic-removes-jontron-from-yooka-laylee.1354840/post-232664713
I'm at a loss that Titanoboa just randomly admitted to purposefully hurting patients in a playful sadistic tone and no one seems to care. The most optimistic reading of this is that Titanoboa is an embarrassing edge-lord who is all too willing to reveal imaginary sadistic fantasies to strangers.
Come on, what Titanoboa did isn't right - but its hardly torture, its some discomfort and far less damaging than people expressing those opinions in the grand scheme of things.
I think people mostly ignored it because it was off-topic and had nothing to do with the discussion, not to mention it's difficult to tell who's being an edgelord and who isn't.
That said, I couldn't help but notice that trying to stir up shit about the issue on Twitter wasn't enough for you, but you thought you'd come to stir some up in the thread itself. That was probably not your best idea.
Riposte has been banned already. No need to feed into his shit anymore.

t’s not just about supporting who is thenom. The nom represents the WHOLE parties platform. You all really get all wrapped up in who is president and notabout wtf the party is running on. Look at what they ran on after the convention here And please understand that party unity is more than just who is president.
https://democrats.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/2016_DNC_Platform.pdf
Having party unity is crucial not only for president but also down ticket so anything at all depressing votes like slow endorsements hurts the whole party.
you tell me how neo-lib this party plan was in 2016. Whichim sure very few people actually read. When voting for president you are voting for the parties platform not the personality behind it.

My big takeaway from this is that I’m really looking forward to seeing what Democrats like her and Obama will have to say about “party unity” when Bernie gets the nomination.
She would’ve been a disastrous President, and potentially worse than Trump in matters like foreign affairs.
“Speaking eloquently” is a worthless currency.
No. Just no. And this is coming from someone who doesn't care for Hillary Clinton. I don't like her. I voted for her, but I don't care for her at all, and this opinion right here still blew my mind. wtf.
Clinton would not have put children in concentration camps, where they're being traumatized and abused by the thousands. She wouldn't have betrayed the Kurds and left them to slaughter just to suck up to Erdogan and Putin.
I don't know if these ideas are just bubbling up naturally from mineral spring in your mind or if you're absorbing them from elsewhere. If so, please switch up your media diet. Something is really wrong here.
"Are you watching enough msnbc?"

I mean, it’s cute to be appalled by my assertion because Trump is the one in power, but history proves that Hillary would’ve also supported the coups in Venezuela and Bolivia, and she would’ve also acted beat by beat the same way towards Saudi Arabia. She probably would’ve skipped the Jerusalem embassy debacle, but she would’ve still supported Israel at every turn just like him.
Iran, on the other hand... I wouldn’t have wanted to see how she’d deal with that.
As a non-American who watched what the Clintons do abroad while in power with great personal interest, I stand by what I said.

double poliera blast:
Bernie acknowledging Tulsi at all is one of the few things that gives me pause about him. He has no business getting involved with such a poisonous person.
edit: oh wait, it goes on with more prominent names
Tulsi is running ads on Breitbart. Tulsi's fans include Bannon, Duke, and she had a meeting about a position in the Trump admin after the 2016 election. Tulsi is a DINO running as a spoiler candidate. Running in the general to try and siphon votes away from the Dem nominee is exactly what you'd expect from someone running as a spoiler, and Tulsi's very angry response to getting called out on it in advance showed Clinton had the right read here. Clinton wasn't saying anything that anyone with a basic understanding of political motivations couldn't see for themselves given the facts.
God the only good part of any of these debates was watching Tulsi get her tacky ass bad dye job wig snatched. Couldn’t happen to a better homophobic, dictator loving, cult member.
Using the "they're too dumb to know what they're doing" defense for people like Trump and Tulsi is very, very bad. They know exactly what they're doing.
Tulsi got a liberal primary challenger and her response was to quit rather than fight that race. Because she doesn't plan on being a Democrat much longer, as the need to win office in Hawaii was the only reason to label herself one. She's pulling the same pied piper shtick as other faux-liberal/lefty types as she tries to drag her support over to the right wing.
If someone wants to pretend there is no evidence against Tulsi Gabbard and that’s the hill you wanna die on, rock on. The rest of us had no difficulty seeing it.
An asset does not need to be aware that they are one.
Though in Tulsi's case, her shilling for Assad (Syria is a Russian vassal state) makes that line of argument pretty moot.
If you don't think Tulsi is a GOP asset.....good lord.
Man this is all about self-insertion where you're treating this like Clinton is talking about you, isn't it.

They've pretty clearly been in favor of it from the start. What do you think a "minority safe space" is?
I never despise ResetERA.com.
Except for their refusal to acknowledge my official position on the staff. A supportive and thankful PM would be enough.

I love that hostility is part of ban reasons after the trans community was openly comparing the mod team to cops protecting their own like, what, two weeks ago at this point? Strangely no one was banned for hostility then.
Mods more cowardly than the lion from Wizard of Oz.

I'm white and when I hear someone who's not black say the N word in any context my blood runs cold and I have to look around to make sure I'm not the only one in shock
As a white guy, I've always felt guilty when listening to artists like Noname. Almost like by consuming their art I'm engaging in struggle tourism, if that makes any sense? Like, engaging with her art allows me to say "wow I understand her experience" and give myself a pat on the back for that without ever truly having to deal with what it means to actually live that experience.
:popular
What about middle class black males? Should they feel guilty also for listening to her music as there is no way that they could understand her struggle and it would basically be the same thing right?

And people wonder why certain communities are rapidly bouncing from the site. Good fucking lord.
spoiler (click to show/hide)
People are furious at Hillary for not winning, despite their best efforts to prevent her from doing so.
If she were a white man she would not get this amount of hate. Pathetic.
-
"If Hillary was a white man" lol. When it comes to policy, she is a white man. Only slightly more destructive and ineffectual than her raping careerist husband.
-
I am not sure why these people feel disrupting events of candidates helps anyone. BLM caused enough harm to Hillary I hope to God they stay out of things with 2020.
-
What endgame? They have been doing this since the forum opened.
Demanding specific community forums with the mods? I don't recall that happening in the open. Maybe on discords and via the "prominent members", but not in the open. We have had one community basically mutiny and now we have the second beginning to sow the seeds of insurrection. Shit is going to spiral quickly if the BCT gets their way.

lol at all the posts in that thread outright cutting off the "foreign affairs" part of Brazil's statement and now:
Been trending this way for years now here. And we have now legit reached the point where Im reading full on Fox News "explanations" for atrocious actions and policies under Trump while being told we are better off in many ways with him as President than Hillary.

Men are stronger than women, just not extraordinarily so.
https://www.livescience.com/52998-women-combat-gender-differences.html
A study in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that men had an average of 26 lbs. (12 kilograms) more skeletal muscle mass than women. Women also exhibited about 40 percent less upper-body strength and 33 percent less lower-body strength, on average, the study found.
The average man is considerably stronger than the average woman.

I guess I don't have any first-hand experience of women's combat abilities because I went to a private school, so I never saw any examples of that schoolyard scuffle.
But still, those replies in that reddit thread...
"I got punched in the head and I saw stars / it was like a train hit me". No shit, it's a fucking punch to the head. You don't want a woman doing that shit to you either.

My wife punched me full on the jaw once. I definitely had it coming, I was being a proper twat. I've been punched a few times in my life, but that was the first time that my reaction was laughter. Don't think she appreciated it.
Just read that news story though, I knew a dude that got killed like that. Punch wasn't that serious but the way it rocked his head back burst something in his neck and he was dead before he hit the ground. Don't punch people, people. Not even your partners.
-
Dave is such a chav.
You should update your profile pic, me and the lads want to see how ridiculously thick, solid and tight you are these days.
-
I know I live in a classy area because the off licence has a sign from the police about how one punch can kill, and you shouldn't let a minor disagreement escalate into manslaughter.
-
If you're a woman, I strongly recommend blasting anavar until you look something like megsquats.
Shosta, don't kill yourself bro. If your feeling down, have a few beers then start dipping tendies in your beer. Tastes just like beer battered chicken with none of the effort.
Brazil, retire bich

so why do they hate Yang so much despite him being one of the few POCs in the race?
Because a lot of the 4/8chan types found interest in his ideas. Even though Yang never associated himself with those groups and renounced all bigotry and has no record of gaffes in this area, unlike Hilary, Biden, Buttiege, etc.
Moreover, his is approach is very empirical, which they consider "tech bro". And there is nothing ERA hates more than tech bros. The fact is, Yang is not a tech bro. He's a failed lawyer, by his admission. Founded some businesses. And his last business was a rather progressive non-profit. Although, its efficacy is questionable--like many legit non-profits.
But with ERA, it's guilt by association. No critical thinking at all.
All of Yang's enumerated policies are something that the mainstream ERA poster will agree in lockstep, including his flagship policy, a form of UBI.
But when you have so-called pillars of ERA like Slayven, who knows nothing about politics beyond a cursory level, take potshots, the hive follows. Political discourse on ERA is basically WWE for nerdy progressives.

Don’t forget azns are honorary crackers and aren’t real poc according to ree :wag
(Unless they aren’t honorary whites depending on what the argument is :pimp )
-
so why do they hate Yang so much despite him being one of the few POCs in the race?
the same reason they hate anything. the people they don't like are fans of yang, therefore he's bad. it never goes deeper than that.
-
it's weird how your pain receptors are generally supposed to tell you that shit it fucked and you need whatever is happening to stop, but getting punched in the head is the opposite. unless it's straight on your nose or across your jaw, the blunt impact isn't really painful, just disorientating. the worst shit is when you get that metallic sense taste that tells you you've taken a proper bad one and it rattles your fillings, like you're a robot with a dodgy solder.

A suicide, and now domestic violence too : (
-
so why do they hate Yang so much despite him being one of the few POCs in the race?
He doesn't follow the SJW playbook of calling everyone they disagree with a Nazi and trying to get them cancelled. Like when Shane Gillis's "racist" jokes came out, he offered to sit down and talk with Gillis instead of wanting his head on a platter like most other (white) SJWs.
-
Wait, Shosta's actually fine, right? :-\

He killed himself.
Glen was never fine. Hillary obsession syndrome
-
I believe the gripe is that Yang's UBI intends to replace entitlement programs for those with low income, essentially erasing the distinction between welfare recipients and anyone else. The fear is that this would just raise rent, among other things, on the most vulnerable.
-
it would be crazy if glen always bounced back from his many poltical self immolations in the biggest fuck up of an election in living memory only to be finished off by tom morello.

Yeah but it's not like we are removing him from office. Will this prevent him from being up for reflection? If the answer is no then the rules should be changed so he can be disqualified from a second Term

Am I suppose to not see Marvel movies because they have half assed/nonexistent LGBTQ reps? If I ignored American media with bad representation I'd basically consume next to nothing. It's the sad truth
It's the sad truth you can't imagine existing without blindly consuming popular media? I suppose that is pretty sad...

it would be crazy if glen always bounced back from his many poltical self immolations in the biggest fuck up of an election in living memory only to be finished off by tom morello.
It’s more likely he was finished off by Tom Collins

Wow. You had a good chance to shit on Mayor Booty but you're fine going to bat for a Trumper. I would have thought mentioning your source being a dick who openly supports Trump would have qualified as "interesting." I'll keep this mind the next time I see you posting about Trump's administration.

Yeah but it's not like we are removing him from office. Will this prevent him from being up for reflection? If the answer is no then the rules should be changed so he can be disqualified from a second Term

So, I'd like to confess something.
Considering how bad the state of things in the world and anything else, there are others who somehow manage to find joy and happiness in those times.
To me, it makes me bitter and angry. I'm a man who suffers from depression and gets utterly despaired at a lot of bad news about the world. The idea that there are people who manage to find happiness in spite of how bad things are feels morally irresponsible and completely ignorant to me. It's like they live in a completely different world
So how do you deal with that issue?

I believe the gripe is that Yang's UBI intends to replace entitlement programs for those with low income, essentially erasing the distinction between welfare recipients and anyone else. The fear is that this would just raise rent, among other things, on the most vulnerable.

I'm actually really pissed to keep reading people here ignoring or not even reading what members of the black community in this thread are saying.
From what I've heard from them, this isn't about where the concert is held, how much it costs, or any of that nonsense.
It's about white people's sense of entitlement to engage in racism at Noname's shows under the guise of "hey, it's in the song".
Buying a ticket doesn't give you the right to use that word, to scream it at a black artist and pretend it's okay.
How are people not understanding this extremely obvious point?
I've been a fan of rap for decades. I don't say that word. It's not hard.
It's also not hard to actually LISTEN to the community that's actually affected by this racism.
Fellow* white people, grow the fuck up. Stop making this about us and stop gaslighting black people.

If white people want to be respectful, they can start by making sure they are welcome in the first place before intruding on black spaces. One baby step towards dismantling white supremacist culture is for white people to stop assuming they are welcome wherever they go by default, whether they paid to be there or not.

The worst part about it, is that there are forum users that have been directly hurt by Trumps policies. To make that comment, 'Well actually...' is wholly patronizing and serves only to scare members away from being a part of the community and discussions when thoughts like 'Hillary would've been worse than Trump' are thrown around with a disregard to those people.

Didn't a bunch of people lose their insurance? Then there's the deportations (though I don't know if the total rates increased), and higher taxes for some (to pay for tax cuts at the top). Farmers were hurt (and subsequently bailed out) due to the trade war.
Dunno what else happened, I don't keep track outside of what gets posted here. It's not just angst though.

Go ahead John and keep on doing those cinematic masterpieces like Pacific Rim 2: Electric Boogaloo while inferior actors to you get stuck making high quality television like The Mandalorian.
i understand that he hasn’t had much to work with this entire trilogy but for me he’s probably the weakest actor in the weakest role of the 4 main leads.
these comments are not a good look for him and come off very egotistical.
Not a good look.

I find it hard to even care about the core trio like I did with Han, Leia, and Luke. Definitely would not be interested in more of these characters, especially on solo acts.
Frankly, I don't care to see most of these characters again.
I don't care very much for Finn as a Character mainly because TLJ (which I generally love) didn't do much with/for him.
With as talented as he and Oscar Isaac are, I couldn’t possibly care less if we never saw either character ever again. Such is my level of being underwhelmed with their arcs . Feel bad for Black SW fans who got their hopes up that he’d be a major player/ Jedi
"Yeah fuck Finn and Poe, I never really liked them anyways.

Finn was destined to be the Han Solo type of character from the beginning. But of course REEE saw him holding a lightsaber back in a TFA trailer so that automatically meant he would be a Jedi.

I don't agree with Brazil's opinion on her at all (though I do wish others would read his follow-up posts instead of jerking their knees here), but there is nothing sexist in what he said. A lot of the so-called criticism of Clinton you see around does come from sexism, but there's also plenty of legitimate reasons to criticize her too. Let's not conflate things here.

1. What are your pronouns?
I'm using he/him and they/them right now.
2. How do you like to describe your gender / identity? Are there any terms, identities, or affinities you like to evoke in describing yourself?
My understanding of my gender has drifted over time, since originally realizing I am trans back in 2010. I am amab and originally came out as a binary trans woman nine years ago(I socially transitioned in early 2013), but realized that I am non-binary in 2016. At the time I believed myself to be a demiwoman, but now believe myself to be genderflux. Basically, I'm not a guy, but my gender fluctuates between "demiwoman" and "basically agender".
3. In your experience, does being non-binary feel like having no gender, many genders, fluctuating genders, or both / neither?
My gender fluctuates, between a point close to "binary woman" and somewhere far away from either point of our binary.
4. What's your favorite thing about being non-binary? What's your least favorite? What's something that has surprised you?
My favorite thing is how much my gender has led to exploration about how our society views gender in general.
My least favorite thing is the struggle for visibility, when my expression of gender isn't outside of cis female norms. I have a lot of personal issues with the gender binary, and gaining the privilege of being cis-female after transitioning actually ended up working for me in terms of public comfort(esp in gendered spaces, ie restrooms), but against me in my private life. I've been recently trying to reconcile both.
1) I keep putting on weight and that just makes me feel even more dysphoric because *list of complicated reasons*
2) Every time I see someone hold up another non-binary person as an ideal it's always an androgynous icon. Just seems like that's the "normal" view of what an enby should be. As a fat, bald, male-presenting, bearded, gender-confused person it just makes me feel bad cause it's so hard for me to hit the gender-neutral targets I want to hit and I'll probably never be seen by others in a way that I see myself in my imagination.
3) Somehow I'm still fucking up MY OWN pronouns when telling self-stories to others. Luckily others, and my partner, are better than I am.
4) I'm considering moving to using my middle name for my preferred name as it's far more neutral than "Joshua", but I don't even know how to start.
Normal doesn’t exist to even meter a ‘should’ against. Always ground yourself with that anchor. I know you yourself want to present androgynous and that is you, just don’t lose sight of it not having a bearing on the validity of your identity. It’s shit and it sucks, but don’t use what the world robs from you already to take more from you. You think cis people out there worrying on the daily about how they could present a rift deep within you that sits outside of the gender binary?
Society as a whole is still chained to the binary, and androgyny is a reflection of that: it can only exist in a binary space because it requires those binaries to define itself.
No one will ever see you the way you see yourself. It's impossible. We're ink blots. Seven-dimensional ink-blots in a five-colour spectrum, shifting every moment like oil on water. Everyone will see something different in the pattern unique to them, filtered through their life's experiences. If you want to change the way they see you, you have to change the way they see, not what they see. Teach them that being fat, bald, male-presenting and bearded is as valid a nonbinary identity as any other - if not for yourself, then for all the fat, bald, male-presenting, bearded enbies who follow.

Like many things, it has a good basis but gets twisted into a unrecognizable form and misused.
A man chiding/correcting whatever, something a woman does or says isn't necessarily mansplaining.
A really straightforward example, hm, what could you use to describe aside from buffoonery say... me trying to correct a woman on something to do with ovulation cycles that somehow became a conversation point?

I'm sure countless women doctors know more about sperm and prostates than me. Something is either right or wrong, regardless of whose mouth it comes out of.
But I will say that what mansplain was originally meant to convey is a real thing: sexist condescension. If a man tells a woman something in a condescending way because she's a woman, that would fit the original intent. But the term has been poison since the start, and as you said, has only gotten twisted and worse since then.

There's no way to know if a person is being a condescending asshole due to sexism, unless he says something like 'woman please' or whatever else is cartoonishly stupid. We have a word for condescending people already, to inject your own perception into a routine social interaction is something i'm just going to laugh at.

This post is a pretty gussied-up way to say "But black people say it, why can't I say it?"
fuck off, you troll. The word appears in the first sentence of an article on a fairly mainstream site and no one in that thread reacts to it. It made me wonder if outside my country it saw use.
Wtf, calm down dude.
And no, that word isn't mainstream even if it is in a mainstream site.
Guy managed several leaps of logic from my posting a link to the word being used where people's reactions did not match my own to it meaning I must want to secretly chant the word in public. I've worked on anti-racism campaigns before, I'm not going to put up with some internet troll trying to stir up drama for e-points.
And I didn't say the word was mainstream, I said the site was, i.e. not a fringe source that might sneak an offensive word in there for an agenda. I don't see how you could conclude from that that I'm saying the word is mainstream.

He 100% says colour. I've listened to it 10 times trying to hear 'talent' and there's no 't' sound. It's colour.
Narrator: Except Arkestry was 100% wrong.

He clearly says colour (or at the very least definitely not talent) though because as you can seen in the video you posted exactly how the man says the word talent. It's very distinct and phonetic. It's impossible to mix up with with the word colour. The t's are clear (you can hear both of the them in the second but none in the first) and likely how he was brought up to pronounce that word.
Whether it was on purpose, who knows.
Impossible you say? So why have you managed to mix it up you fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellowed, basement-dwelling, tendies-eating fuckwit?

No one in that Sasha Grey thread is shaming her, But apparently mentioning that she is a pornstar is misogyny or something. How will the mods spin this?
some of you have a screw loose. Apparently it is OK for someone to do porn, but God forbid someone say they liked it. If it is fine to do it it should be fair game to discuss after you are done. No one would even know who she is if not for her sex videos(which lead to some mainstream work) so this holier than thou attitude some of you are trying to pull is complete and utter bullshit and rather hypocritical. There is some perspective. You are welcome.
:salute
she's clearly more than just a former porn actor (considering that according to her wiki she hasn't appeared in an adult movie in a *decade*) so to just reduce her to that without even bothering to comment on anything else is lazy and stupid at best

Any person or any color should be able to voice any character if they do it well enough.

User Warned: Insensitive comment towards individuals with autism.
Wow great study! I believe they will have a cure for asd and adhd within our lifetimes for sure.
Deleted personal medical info
You're advocating eugenics. Autistic people aren't diseased and we don't need to be cured or removed from the gene pool.
This, and other posts calling for a cure, is extremely offensive to many autistic people. Nonverbal people are not inherently violent or unable to communicate (they just can't use words to do so).
Please stop telling us you want to cure us. We don't need to be cured. We aren't diseased. We have a different neurotype.
I'm autistic. Yes, I know the difference. Advocating that we cure something that isn't a disease is fucked up.
Do you have a medical degree or appropriate professional background to be making this statement?

I wonder what other disorders Feisty Boots may be wrong about.
I have a number of clinically-diagnosed co-morbid mental health/neurological conditions:
ASD 1 (what used to be known as Asperger's until the DSM 5, diagnosed last month at 43 years old)
ADHD (primarily impulsive, re-diagnosed a few months ago after ignoring my first diagnosis for 20 years and now on medication that has changed my life for the better)
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Major Depressive Disorder
PTSD (see spoilers)
Gender Dysphoria
-
The fact that autism is a 'spectrum' of widely different afflictions, with widely different behaviours and effects, and widely different degrees of extent of suffering, suggests that it is in fact a variety of as yet unspecified and unidentified maladies that share a common symptom or similar behaviours, rather than a single affliction, and as such it is more likely than not that further research will correctly identify, be able to disagnose, and yes, possibly cure certain ailments that currently fall under the 'autistic' umbrella term.
you fucking dipshit.

Oh, so not autistic then. ASD 1 barely counts compared to those way further up the spectrum. For her to sit there castigating others wanting to give those suffering with serious symptoms a chance at a normal life is beyond dirtbag levels.

I love how FeistyBoots posting that at the time and manner in which she did makes it even more obvious that she’s not actually interested in a discussion on the matter, but instead for her viewpoint to be the singularly allowed viewpoint on the topic, enforced by bans. The implication is that she’s not a member of autistic era, she IS autistic era (:lol).
At some point, protecting shitty people like her is going to negatively impact Cereals big conservative ad-monies, and when that occurs things are probably going to be pretty interesting.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/autistic-era-ot-slippin-on-by-on-asd.13734/post-24438969
So an update from me - yesterday I severed ties with the therapist who refused to accept my ASD1 diagnosis and was looking for any excuse to dismiss the work of the licensed psychologist with a PhD in the field and 20 years' experience working with autistic people. Not about to pay for the privilege of being gaslit.
I was wondering if I was maybe overthinking things earlier this year when I wondered if there should be a fundamental right to a diagnosis - or more fancifully, certainty of the mental self - but this just affirms that no, it would probably be a good idea
Honestly, this is the reason I personally dislike the whole "you gotta be professionally diagnosed to be autistic!" Diagnosis is expensive and humans who do the diagnosis are notoriously fallable with all sorts of biases, especially against women, people of color, and adults. If you relate to the autistic experience and resources for autistic people genuinely help you, you're autistic, and nobody should judge or take that away. Self-dx is super valid
Strong disagree. Autism is only hard because neurotypicals make it hard. It needs to be demedicalized and normalized, and people need to embrace the idea of neurodivergence.

I hope you're all having a nice day
I had a bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad day
I felt bad and vented the whole morning and afternoon both offline and online about people calling me a "lolcow"
then when I finally relaxed by playing the 4Chan team fortress 2 server I vented to them about the Autism discord calling me a lolcow and they KEPT MAKING FUN OF ME saying I'm a lolcow
AND THEY DID THE SAME THING AS EVERY TIME I PLAY IT
they say that I'm a "drunk" because I get a 12 pack on fridays and drink 2 or 3 beers on weekend nights when playing the 4chan team fortress 2 server with my best online friends and they kept making fun of me the entire night
then they said "don't do that thing you do where you vent and rant" on the 4chan server's Steam group chat where I was venting that I felt very bad that people on the team fortress 2 server made fun of me and said I'm a drunk for drinking two beers when all I did was vent to my best friends on tf2 that people on an autism server called me a lolcow and
lots of people there said they're drinking vodka and whiskey but they still said I "drink too much" and I said I drink only two beers and the person there that always provokes me every time said to quit drinking altogether but
My mom yelled at me on the phone and I was yelling and hitting my head offline and screaming very loudly offline while talking a walk because my mom was harassing me and my brother agree'd and I told the 4chan that in response to them saying that to explain my situation and they that proves I'm an alcoholic that uses beer on weekend nights as my medication and yet they said they're drinking whiskey and they said how much is too much and they said "As long as you don't become Abu-tier" which means me cuz I'm called Abu on steam and
then I micspammed cool Japanese music from the Osu! game from Nintendo DS and after not saying anything for an hour, suddenly the guy that provoked me said "Just so you know, that one guy that said its ok if you drink two beers when you play with us was only saying that for entertainment and its not ok if you drink beer when you play with us" even though the person saying that often drinks whiskey or vodka when he plays that server and
I explained further to him that I babysat my nephew for 4 hours and my brother didn't even say thank you to me he just talked to my nephew instead and I already told my mom before that's on her "deathbed" she told me, that it seems like my brother is replacing me with my Nephew cuz he always calls him "brother" all the time
and I told the 4chan team fortress 2 server that I have no friends offline and that they're my only friends but they kept making fun of me and they asked if I have aspergers or autism and I said I do and someone said "that explains everything" finally but that was after the guy that provokes me left and I'm afraid he'll provoke me again when I play Casual Saturday with them tomorrow night
aaaah and my head still hurts from hitting it and screaming at my mom loudly on the phone outside
What happened with my mom although I'm very exhausted from venting about this on a Discord server is..
she called and said she ordered pizza to get delivered to me and chicken wings too with spicey sauce and I was happy. She said "it won't be there for like two hours though so you should take a walk now if you're gonna" so I took a walk playing Pokemon Go
she called when I was at the comic book store that's also a Pokemon Gym and I told her 3 times I just beat the pokemon gym and am heading back but she kept yelling at me still saying I need to head back because the food's gonna arrive and I said "I JUST TOLD YOU THREE TIMES I BEAT THE POKEMON GYM I REALLY DID BEAT THE POKEMON GYM" but she said "you never said you left" and I said "BUT I DID JUST SAY I BEAT THE POKEMON GYM OF COURSE I'M HEADING BACK" and I left the comic book store and was heading back
then she called me again and yelled "OK BYE" really loudly at me
I called back and said "I'm sorry" and she did the same thing as every time she calls me of saying "YOU SHOULD BE SORRY, I'm trying to be nice and you keep BITCHING at me"
I asked her how did I bitch at her? I have no idea and she told me "I forgot" then I kept calling her over and over asking what I did to bitch at her and she told me to just "drop it" and I kept screaming "WHY DID YOU SAY I BITCHED AT YOU THEN, I KEPT VENTING ONLINE THE WHOLE DAY THAT I FEEL BAD THAT PEOPLE ONLINE CALL ME A BAD PERSON AND A LOLCOW, HOW DID I BITCH AT YOU JUST NOW!!??!?!?!?!" and she said "I forgot. Just drop it." and I kept screaming very loudly and hitting my head while walking back home and the people walking by me kept saying sorry if they're bothering me
and I kept not talking on the 4chan team fortress 2 server I didn't even vote for maps when they asked.
When they finally got to the VERY VERY boring Toehoe mansion map that's boring to me, I said "I hope you're all having a nice day, I feel bad cuz I joined a Discord server for people with autism and they called me a Lolcow" and that's when the guy kept provoking me saying I shouldn't drink two or three beers when I play the 4chan team fortress 2 server because I vent too much about personal issues and that no one wants to hear it and they kept provoking me about it
I hate being a bother to people, aaaah!!
AAACK and on a support discord where people vent and give hug reactions, these two people do not give me a hug reaction to my vents but they do it to other peoples vents, I don't get why I don't get as much hug reactions when I vent there as everyone else does, aaaah

Hey all, just wanted to give an update - after having my suspicions dismissed by my therapist, psychologist and psychiatrist I went outside my insurance provider to get assessed for ASD using the ADOS and a series of interviews.
I got the results yesterday - I am indeed autistic.
-
this thread :dead :dead :dead
Checking in and subbing to the thread.
My son has ASD, diagnosed at 2.5 years old back in November 2018.
Since then it's been a absolute sprint to get him into everything available (ABA, Early Access Pre-K, and Private Speech Therapy).
It's been going well, but progress is agonizingly slow, as expected.
My wife and I are mostly keeping it together but the emotional toll is very high.
Not sure if I can help anyone else, but I'm willing to share or advise with anyone looking for it.
First thing's first: ABA is child abuse. Get your kid out ASAP. It's commonly described as "dog training for people", but even dog trainers find it repulsive. Far more valuable is letting them be themself.
If you could describe what your kid is like, we could provide more specific advice. Every autistic kid is different. The main thing that makes raising an autistic kid hard is neurotypical parents trying to raise them like a neurotypical kid. Raise them to be themselves, allowing them to have their limitations and strengths unique to them, will make it so much easier and them so much happier.
I don't even know how to respond to this... I'm acting on the advice and council of doctors and professionals, and here you are telling me that I'm abusing my son.
Why the hell did I even come here?
Fuck this and fuck you.
I'm not saying you're a bad or abusive parent, I'm saying you were lied to and tricked into an abusive therapy designed to break autistic kids. A lot of [tbh almost all] neurotypicals don't even realize it, but it's highly similar to gay conversion therapy that tries to force gay people to be straight and trans people to be cis. I'm not saying you're a bad parent, I'm saying you came here for advice, and I'd like to help in the interest of making sure your kid is happy and healthy.
While I appreciate the defensive responsive against what you believed to be an accusation against your character as concerning your child, it's not a good look to be immediately dismissive of an actual autistic person raising their concerns about the matter.
...
So such concern, particularly from autistic people who such systems failed to recognise or otherwise failed to properly support in their development, isn't just to be dismissed out of hand.
They didn't "raise concerns" (whoever they are they are on my block list now), they said I was abusing my child.
Saying that someone is abusing their child for following the advice and council of doctors and trained professionals is fucked up, period. If you want to express concerns about ABA therapies you should speak from your experience. The ABA my son has involves him playing with toys and puzzles at a table for a few hours in the afternoon, learning to clean up after himself, and using PECs symbols to communicate needs and wants. Basic cooperative play, interpersonal communication, and life skills.
I'm under no illusions here. There hasn't been a single professional person involved that has told me that my son would be "cured" or that he would be "normal", ever.
The purpose of these therapies is all about giving my son the best possible chance at a full, independent life.
spoiler (click to show/hide)
Never. While there are struggles, overall being autistic has been a very positive experience in my life. I genuinely believe that if I were not autistic, I would most probably be a terrible person.

Aborting fetuses based on an autism diagnosis would be actual eugenics but Feisty Boots undoubtedly supports that. Treatment? That’s a bridge too far.

You would trust a neurotypical to diagnose you? How would they even understand your lived experience? Afterall, this is an identity, not a condition to be treated/cured.

Kirblar Centrist Crew rushing into action to defend Biden: https://www.resetera.com/threads/biden-aint-having-none-of-this-dudes-bullshit.157451/page-7
Boy, some of you are really good at running with right-wing talking points.
I've seen a significant spike in this behavior on Era lately, and it's got me about ready to bow out of any political discussion between now and November.
Holy shit.
There is no fucking god-damn evidence that Joe Biden had a single thing to do with his kid getting that position (other than yes, his shitty kid Hunter can play up that connection to his personal benefit, which Joe can't control.) None. Joe Biden had no connection to the company involved here. Nepotism is when you actively and deliberately help get your friends/family into positions.
Claiming "nepotism" here is baseless conspiracy theory based on absolutely zero evidence or context other than "Joe Biden is a famous influential person who I don't like."
being concerned about biden's son when trump's family is completely corrupt is some bad faith shit
I just want to reiterate that a lot of people in here are straight up lapping up these right-wing talking points re: Biden, Hunter, Burisma, and the prosecutor.
If a left-wing echo chamber like ERA is doing so, imagine the effect it's having on the general populace...
I’m not huge on Biden, but there’s definitely a contingent here ready to gobble up and spread whatever misinfo they can about joe. Even on this thread, we keep getting constant references to a push up competition presented out of context despite the video being there to watch
Burisma is a bullshit conspiracy theory Trump and his advisors worked up to try to replicate the email scandal Clinton endured in 2016. You’d be foolish to assume that they wouldn’t come up with similar bullshit for those 3-4 decent candidates.
I’d prefer to shut down right-wing garbage all the time, every time, instead of just when it’s against a candidate I like.
Yep, between the Biden threads and the Clinton threads on here, damn so much right wing crap being thrown around.
oh so its just classic nepotism, that makes sense. Im sure that will resonate very well with the voters
That is not nepotism. Which isn't that difficult to understand unless you deliberately don't want to.
That is not nepotism. That has nothing to do with the actions of Joe Biden. The "conspiracy theory" won't go away, just like birtherism didn't go away, because people will want to belive it. And this same type of crap will be flung against any candidate, propped up by the same right wing media machine. Not amplifying this bullshit isn't hard!
Your daily reality check that Hunter Biden did not do anything wrong by being on the board of an energy company. It's not scandalous. It's not remarkable. It's not noteworthy. It's not nepotism. It's not eyebrow raising. You don't even have to make a false equivalency to the Trump children, for instance, talentless sack of skin Jared Kushner being a chief advisor to the President of the United States, it's not even analogous because there's nothing remotely of interest about it.
If you think that it is any of those things, then you're buying what Republicans are selling.
It's not semantics, you're just twisting yourself into knots trying to justify attacking Biden using right wing talking points invented in order to try and draw a false comparison to Trump to try and minimize Trump's actions.
I see the pipeline of Breitbart/Fox News talking points to Left wing Twitter is as strong as ever.
It is the far left just parroting right-wing talking points to repeat what we saw in 2016.
And Bernie hiring a bunch of ppl who were for voting for Jill Stein or using the same attacks as Trump against HRC is troubling to me. I love the man's politics but his team is shit.
BernieEra should first crucify Bernie before talking about anyone else. Just like Hunter, Bernie’s family is exploiting the Sanders name for personal gain. Let’s hold him personally responsible for having relatives.
This is the kind of heartless purity laden bullshit that gives rise to populism. Plenty of kids of successful people get incentives that they don't earn or things that they aren't hurting for. I don't know why the Bidens have to be some kind lightning rod for it. Its not team sports, its instead not letting people get away with arguing in bad faith just because they don't want to see Biden in the general.
It's the classic gaslighting some here seem to love to do because they hate Biden. Had it been Sanders they'd be jumping up and down cheering. They did it last time and they're doing it again. The bullshit push Dems and Reps are the same lie is showing itself here again. They're trying to do it with Biden and Trump now. People doing it think they're being clever or being above it all but they're really not. Their bullshit is very easy to see and they need to stop it and be called out on it.
Right. I don't know why some are acting like it doesn't matter if it's nepotism or not. There's a REASON why the right-wing media and posters in this thread invoked the term. Because it's not enough to say, "Yeah it sucks that someone used their famous name to get something they probably didn't deserve." No. Because Hunter Biden isn't the target. Joe Biden is. So you have to tie him directly to the wrongdoing. So you cry nepotism. This shit is purposeful.
"I'm just asking questions!"
Resetera is far more centrist than people give credit for. Look at the number of people defending Biden on this thread. It´s like this is MSNBC. People defending centrists are often arrogant and dismissive when they are presented with an opinion that they don´t agree or think it´s unacceptable. It´s nothing like a left-wing echo chamber. The sole fact that some opinions are views as unacceptable should raise some flags on labeling this place as left-wing echo chamber.
The "centrist" users aren't spreading and defending fucking right wing conspiracy theories.

Strong disagree. Autism is only hard because neurotypicals make it hard. It needs to be demedicalized and normalized, and people need to embrace the idea of neurodivergence.
Holy fucking shit. My friend's child was recently diagnosed with autism and it makes me mad reading this. It has been so much better for the kid and the family after the diagnosis and further therapy for the condition.

The one thing no one addresses in #BidenGate and Joe abusing his power and connections....
Joe: "I love you son, even if you smoke crack and date strippers"
Hunter: "Thanks dad! Say, could you get me a cushy job somewhere with your connections?"
Joe: "Son, I got you a job to get yourself sorted. You can be an executive at *checks notes* Burisma Gas company in Ukraine"
Hunter: "Gee dad, thanks for a job in the middle of a war zone, I suppose Ambassador to Somalia was already taken?"
Joe: "Well it's either this or chemical weapon inspector in Syria"

this thread :dead :dead :dead
Checking in and subbing to the thread.
My son has ASD, diagnosed at 2.5 years old back in November 2018.
Since then it's been a absolute sprint to get him into everything available (ABA, Early Access Pre-K, and Private Speech Therapy).
It's been going well, but progress is agonizingly slow, as expected.
My wife and I are mostly keeping it together but the emotional toll is very high.
Not sure if I can help anyone else, but I'm willing to share or advise with anyone looking for it.
First thing's first: ABA is child abuse. Get your kid out ASAP. It's commonly described as "dog training for people", but even dog trainers find it repulsive. Far more valuable is letting them be themself.
If you could describe what your kid is like, we could provide more specific advice. Every autistic kid is different. The main thing that makes raising an autistic kid hard is neurotypical parents trying to raise them like a neurotypical kid. Raise them to be themselves, allowing them to have their limitations and strengths unique to them, will make it so much easier and them so much happier.
I don't even know how to respond to this... I'm acting on the advice and council of doctors and professionals, and here you are telling me that I'm abusing my son.
Why the hell did I even come here?
Fuck this and fuck you.
I'm not saying you're a bad or abusive parent, I'm saying you were lied to and tricked into an abusive therapy designed to break autistic kids. A lot of [tbh almost all] neurotypicals don't even realize it, but it's highly similar to gay conversion therapy that tries to force gay people to be straight and trans people to be cis. I'm not saying you're a bad parent, I'm saying you came here for advice, and I'd like to help in the interest of making sure your kid is happy and healthy.
While I appreciate the defensive responsive against what you believed to be an accusation against your character as concerning your child, it's not a good look to be immediately dismissive of an actual autistic person raising their concerns about the matter.
...
So such concern, particularly from autistic people who such systems failed to recognise or otherwise failed to properly support in their development, isn't just to be dismissed out of hand.
They didn't "raise concerns" (whoever they are they are on my block list now), they said I was abusing my child.
Saying that someone is abusing their child for following the advice and council of doctors and trained professionals is fucked up, period. If you want to express concerns about ABA therapies you should speak from your experience. The ABA my son has involves him playing with toys and puzzles at a table for a few hours in the afternoon, learning to clean up after himself, and using PECs symbols to communicate needs and wants. Basic cooperative play, interpersonal communication, and life skills.
I'm under no illusions here. There hasn't been a single professional person involved that has told me that my son would be "cured" or that he would be "normal", ever.
The purpose of these therapies is all about giving my son the best possible chance at a full, independent life.
spoiler (click to show/hide)
Never. While there are struggles, overall being autistic has been a very positive experience in my life. I genuinely believe that if I were not autistic, I would most probably be a terrible person.
Glad this one got banned, and Feisty should be too, just for being real pieces of shit. There’s not demeaning those with autism, and then there’s ranting about therapy to give them normal lives. Odds on them both being anti-vaccers, because they’re at the same level at this point.
I mean self diagnosis is valid??

This is the statement of someone who has incredibly massive privilege and despises the marginalized disabled community.
LEARN SOME FACTS
Hi! I have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
I’ve never been formally diagnosed with it, but I know I have it.
How? Because my experiences meet and exceed the criteria for a PTSD diagnosis.
I never managed to get a professional, clinical diagnosis for PTSD.
This is partly because I struggled to find a consistent and qualified counselor who was willing to diagnose me.
A few of my therapists didn’t want to diagnose me because they didn’t want me to get “held up” on a diagnosis, despite the fact that I wanted some kind of label and language so that I could articulate my pain.
I decided that I needed to start calling it PTSD.
I self-diagnosed. But this doesn’t mean my PTSD is any less real. It definitely doesn’t mean that it’s any less severe.
So here are a few reasons why self-diagnosis might be useful for people, especially those who are marginalized.
1. Self-Diagnosing Can Help Marginalized People Discuss Their Experiences
In many ways, professional diagnoses are usually only available for the privileged.
That’s because most marginalized people seldom have access to compassionate, comprehensive, professional mental healthcare.
It’s difficult to access if you don’t have money to pay for healthcare, or if you can’t travel far because you don’t have reliable access to transportation, or if you’re queer or trans or intersex and can’t find a therapist that is accepting of your identities.
Finding a therapist who isn’t bigoted against us is a challenge.
For this reason, being judgmental towards people who have self-diagnosed – or implying that we’re not really mentally ill – often ends up hurting the most marginalized people.
2. It Can Help Us Accept Our Illnesses
Something really fantastic happened when I accepted that I had PTSD: My mentality switched from There’s something severely wrong with me and I’m a bad person to I have an illness and I need help.
When I had flashbacks, I started recognizing that they were a result of my trauma and not a result of me being silly. I wasn’t simply hung up on something that happened years before; I had a mental illness as a result of my trauma.
Similarly, knowing I was depressed made me realize I didn’t simply need to “be positive” in order to overcome my chronic feelings of sadness and emptiness. Knowing I had anxiety made me realize I didn’t need to “just stop worrying and relax,” but that I needed a holistic, multi-pronged approach to treating my condition.
In other words, I stopped viewing myself as a failure and started trying to heal.
Would I have been able to reach that level of acceptance if I waited around for a diagnosis? I’m not sure. But I do know that accepting my mental illness was something I had to do before I could truly love myself.
For many people, realizing you have a mental illness is a relief. It’s a step towards self-acceptance, and thus a step towards healing. It helps us realize that we need to find treatment, support, and resources instead of simply engaging in self-hatred.
And if self-diagnosis is what we need to do in order to find that acceptance, we should be welcoming and kind towards those who self-diagnose.
3. It Helps Us Find Resources and Community
Self-diagnosing enables us to reach out to other folks who have mental illnesses; we can form a community where we support one another and exchange management tips and resources.
Once you self-diagnose with an anxiety disorder, for example, you might Google “tips for dealing with work pressure when you have an anxiety disorder” or “how to explain my anxiety disorder to a loved one.”
You might also find and join anxiety support groups – online or offline – which can help you feel less alone.
Battling mental illnesses can be draining and isolating. Having a community of some sort can be super valuable and healing.
It will help us feel less like outsiders, and more like we belong.
***
Is self-diagnosing good? Naturally, there isn’t a straightforward answer to this question.
But in a world where mental health care is inaccessible for many, it’s pretty understandable why folks try to diagnose themselves.
The best we can do is be welcoming and understanding towards self-diagnosed mentally ill people
I get into arguments with people on the Internet a lot these days. It’s kind of one of the only ways to be a disability activist when there are a lot of days where you can’t leave your bed.
The most recent argument I had was with a particular kind of ableist disabled person, which, oxymoronic as it sounds, is a thing that actually exists. In fact, I’ve encountered way too many of them. It’s common for us to internalize the ableism we encounter on a regular basis, creating divisions and hierarchies within our own communities in an endless uphill battle to be the “good” disabled people. The ones our ableist society accepts and supports, if only as tokens.
The person I argued with was the type who devalues disorders that rely mostly on patient reporting of symptoms for diagnosis. This person believes there’s some kind of rampant trend of “faking” disability.
This happened on a post I made challenging the gatekeeping model used by too many agencies offering support and resources for disabled people. I had only asked people to consider what it might be like if, instead of focusing on trying to keep people out if they feel they don’t really need the services, such agencies focused on making sure that no one who needs them falls through the cracks.
But this, somehow, is a controversial position, even within the disability community. I see too many people who hold their formal diagnoses over the heads of people who don’t have them in the same way that some people who have college degrees hold them over those who don’t.
There can be many barriers to obtaining a diagnosis, and they often connect to other forms of systemic marginalization. Yet there are still people in our own communities who treat undiagnosed or self-diagnosed people like outsiders, as if no matter how hard your disability makes your life, it isn’t real until you can prove it.
The thing is, “self-diagnosis,” for all the stigma that term carries, is rarely a case of a person hearing about a complex medical condition or reading about it on the internet and deciding they definitely have it and don’t need a doctor to confirm it. More often, it’s a case of a person doing diligent research into their symptoms, learning the clinical criteria of syndromes that match them, and figuring out that they meet them. It doesn’t usually mean claiming to actually have a condition so much as recognizing how much you have in common with those who do and seeking out support among them.
I have multiple disabilities, some of them diagnosed and some not. I belong to an online support group for a genetic condition I strongly suspect I have due to meeting the clinical criteria and having the same kinds of problems show up, to varying degrees, scattered throughout my family. I was added to this group by someone else and yet still have constant feelings of being an imposter.
Even as I tell stories about my body that are nearly identical to those told by people who have been officially diagnosed, I feel often like those stories are somehow not mine to tell –- even though they are things that happened to me –- because I don’t have the piece of paper the others have declaring that my disability is real.
In the autism community, a disability I actually have been officially diagnosed with since childhood, I see a lot of this, because in recent years understanding of autism has grown and spread and people who spent their whole lives just thinking they were “weird” began to wonder whether they might actually be on the autism spectrum. The community has quickly gotten a lot bigger. But because many of these people had made it to adulthood –- in some cases, well into it –- without anyone ever suspecting it, they often found it hard to be taken seriously.
Even when people who think they might have a disability or chronic illness don’t encounter barriers to accessing medical care, the doctors themselves sometimes make getting a confirmed diagnosis difficult. Some doctors don’t seem to like it when people self-advocate and tell them that they have suspicions about the cause of their problems. People who do can get labeled drug-seeking or as hypochondriacs just for asking for a diagnostic screening.
Other doctors seem hesitant to give patients a diagnosis of a condition that has no known treatment, even if they fit diagnostic criteria.
The problem with this is that a formal diagnosis is usually needed in order to access any kind of support, especially when self-diagnosis has become a punch line. When a character on Glee announced she could say whatever she wanted because she had “self-diagnosed Asperger’s,” and when a reporter derisively stated that Rachel Dolezal’s mother had diagnosed herself with chronic fatigue syndrome to imply that a penchant for fabricated personal narratives ran in the family, the message sent to all of us was that if a person says they’re sick or disabled, but a doctor hasn’t, that person is making it up.
What if you have the exact same symptoms as a person with a confirmed diagnosis, but you can’t afford a doctor? Or there isn’t one in your area with the right specialty and you can’t travel? Or you do see one, but the doctor’s own personal beliefs or prejudices stand in the way of them giving your condition the attention it needs? Does any of that make your disability less real?
The fact is, as strange as it may sound to use this word, some chronically ill and disabled people are lucky. They’re the ones whose condition gets caught unexpectedly when they go to the doctor for an unrelated issue, or the ones who go in right away when they notice a weird symptom and a simple test gives them a diagnosis of something everyone’s heard of and knows how to accommodate. They’re the ones who have good insurance and competent, compassionate doctors in their area who know exactly how to help them. And too often, they’re the ones who turn on their own community and use their experience as the standard: if you didn’t get a diagnosis right away like I did, then your disability isn’t real like mine.
I’ve seen the accusations of “doctor-hopping” via the stereotype of a person who keeps going to different doctors until someone gives them a diagnosis. This steretoypes implies that if a person goes to one doctor who is dismissive, or won’t listen, or isn’t looking in the right place and doesn’t come up with an answer, they should just give up and go home.
If one doctor can’t help you, but something is still clearly very wrong with your body, what are you supposed to do besides keep trying to find a doctor who can help? If months or years stretch on and you still haven’t found a doctor who can help (or barriers are preventing you from even looking for one), but you have found community among people who share your symptoms and can commiserate and offer advice, even if their symptoms have a name and yours don’t, are you trespassing there if you don’t have the stamp of medical approval?
And all this would be slightly less awful if not for the fact that the “lucky” ones, in many cases, aren’t lucky at all — they’re just privileged. Class privilege usually comes with the good insurance and the good doctors and the presumption that you’re telling the truth when you go to see them. Doctors for poor people, assuming they can even access them, are too often overworked and jaded, trained to ferret out those seeking drugs or disability letters for nefarious purposes, more focused on guarding the gates than finding answers and giving help. That help is a lot harder to get when your doctor is trying to figure out what your “angle” is instead of trying to solve what they immediately recognize as a crucial medical puzzle.
Refusing access to self-diagnosed people in disability spaces is saying that, whatever the reasons those people may have for lacking formal diagnosis, their own word on their experiences in their bodies doesn’t count. Refusing to help people find the resources to confirm a diagnosis because they’re “fishing” for it, if they come to suspect it on their own first, doesn’t help anyone; it only turns your diagnosis into an exclusive club for the people who never had to try to figure it out on their own.
True disability justice has to happen inside disability movements, too. We can’t gain ground for disabled people as a group if we’re pushing others in our own communities into the margins. Ultimately, we need to break down all the barriers that are preventing some of us from accessing the same care that others take for granted. But until then, the first step is to recognize that those barriers exist and that the people on both sides of them are equally valid.
Content note: autism, medical gaslighting, sexism in medicine.

If you trundle around speaking to people in various corners of the internet and you mention self-diagnosis, chances are you will find controversy or anger. Either two sides arguing over whether self-diagnosis is valid, or someone saying that those silly Tumblr people self-diagnosing for coolness points are hurting people who actually have the condition. A very popular condition to argue over is autism.
The sentiment usually goes, “you’ve googled your symptoms and you’ve decided that you have autism, but a doctor would never diagnose you because you’re just a 13-year old making it up to fit in.”
This has always made me feel really angry.
After years of noticing in my 20s that I was disproportionately making friends with and identifying with autistic people, I started to think that maybe a job working with autistic people specifically might be something that could work for me… and then my physical and mental health declined so far that I became unable to work. When I made yet another friend who later told me they were autistic, and I said to them that I thought maybe I might be autistic, they said, “yeah of course you are.“
I was self-diagnosed for 1–2 years, until my physical and mental state got so bad that I was living well below the poverty line on standard short-term sickness benefits. I went to my GP to talk about my problems but was dismissed. I had to fight the NHS for over a year. I was referred to the Community Mental Health Team (CMHT), who told me that there was no specialist able to diagnose me and then expected me to just discharge myself. One doctor wrote in my medical notes that she didn’t think I was autistic, and that was added to my Disability Living Allowance (DLA) application, and I was denied the correct amount of money for my level of ability; she was a trainee CBT therapist. I had to push for months to get a referral to a locum specialist. No one was able to diagnose autism, in the second-largest city in Wales.
I can’t even count the number of times a less desperate or determined person than me would have given up. I was told so many times that I didn’t seem to be autistic, from my GP onward. When I told non-autistic people I thought I was autistic they seemed worried about me and they doubted me, including my own mother, a teacher in a specialist school for autistic children (all boys). But when I told autistic people they congratulated me and helped me. Even after being self-diagnosed for such a long time, when I finally got that letter saying I was autistic it took me weeks to come to terms with it. I used it to be awarded the correct amount of DLA, and I wrote to that trainee CBT therapist to tell her the harm that her misdiagnosis had done. She wrote back justifying her position.
So many autistic people are slipping through the net, because of doctors just not being very good at this. It’s not their fault that research progresses more slowly than autistic people’s understanding of themselves and their autistic peers, but they are failing us. And they are especially failing women and girls.
Being an undiagnosed autistic adult has been enormously difficult for a very long time, and to those of us on Tumblr who’re used to the idea that women and girls and nonbinary people are equally likely to be autistic it can be a huge shock to be faced with the sexism in medicine that is still very much prevalent. Men and boys are still much more likely to be diagnosed, and people who aren’t men have been trained since birth to mask their difficulties until they fall apart.
So yeah, when you’re autistic and not a mute white boy who rocks occasionally, it’s self-diagnosis or nothing. No one is going to notice that you’re autistic and refer you to the right specialist. You will have to notice on your own, and diagnose yourself, and then fight.
I am also completely unsurprised that online communities of autistic people diagnosing themselves and connecting with each other knew better than the medical community. I trust people to know themselves. I know one person who has been told he’s wrong about his autism because his social skills are too good — the result of being assigned female and various complicated life situations that don’t actually negate his autism but have given him skills he wouldn’t otherwise have. To me he fits into the autistic community perfectly. I am expecting him to be diagnosed maybe in a few years’ time, when doctors are as wise as their autistic patients.
I’m not just speaking in defence of those who self-diagnose. I am actively celebrating self-diagnosis. Until there are people willing to professionally diagnose us, self-diagnosis is for some people the only thing available.

My self-diagnosis explains me to me and that’s all I need. If it explains me to other people that’s a bonus. After 75 years of not understanding who I was, it was a revelation. As with most people, an offiicial diagnosis was too expensive anyway. Thanks for 2 very good articles.

So, uh, if what I just heard is accurate, not only is FeistyBoots a troll, but he (yes he identifies as male) is not the only one with some degree of visibility.
I have a friend in the TransEra discord that is aware of 4 other posters excluding Feisty in there that are total trolls, 2 of which are high profile posters. Out of all 5 of these alleged trolls, only 1 is actually trans/nb, and she's apparently the biggest edgelord of them all.
FeistyBoots is the only name I've been given since my friend wants to see how far the others can take it and she thinks he's laying it on way too thick and is probably going to get exposed soon anyway. And no, I'm not going to name my friend either since she actually does like it in there even if she acknowledges it gets heavy handed at times.
Of course she could also be totally fucking with me here. Wouldn't be the first time. I asked her if I could post it here and she said yeah since it would be funny (I know you're reading this, lol). I guess we'll see what happens and if they ever get exposed.
Wow at this alt-right smear against a key leader of TransEra who was at The Summit which SweetNicole opened with a foreward. This is yet another attempt by the gators to spread myths like that Enzom21 was a poster or that the ads on ResetERA.com are a problem or that an LLC can have a single owner.
This definitely makes the calls for summits more important than ever.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/how-ok-are-you-really-with-joe-biden-as-the-democratic-nominee.157345/post-27124436
In my opinion Biden is too far right and a status quo Democrat in 2021 is not what the world needs to move forward in the face of rising fascism, wealth inequality, climate change, anti intellectualism and bigotry. The world is on it's back foot and needs a visionary progressive leader with access to a large economy - not some moderate old white man who at most will slow the pace of decay.
82 year old Biden in 2024 for another term LMAO. Fuck you America for even entertaining this scenario, especially with the planet on fire. Garbage tier country.
Lots of people don't deny climate change and continue its acceleration. Is that really a standard you feel comfortable with.
Yep, at the point we're at, if you're not into radical change to get off fossil fuels and address our overconsumption, then you're effectively a climate denier.
Denying climate change isn't simply bringing a snowball into Congress and saying that it's still cold outside. A deniar can also be someone like a Pelosi or Biden or some other fossil fuel lover Dem centrist who scoff at getting off of fossil fuels in the time scientists have said we have left to course correct (less than a decade folks).
Or to describe it differently, this planet has terminal stage III lung cancer and it's tilting towards stage IV, and we're the cause. Biden recognizes that, but he would rather just get you new pillows to sleep on, change your diet slightly, no chemotherapy, and all this while allowing you to continue to chain smoke daily. Except now instead of 10 packs a day it's more like 8 and then over the years, if you're still alive, you'll continue cutting down on the daily intake.
With the stakes so high, we can't afford to continue our 4 decades slow response to climate change. So thus why Joe "fucking love fracking" Biden to me barely ranks above a climate change denier.
lol I'm not american. I am however aghast at how comfortable people seem with a Biden presidency. Your country doesn't have four years to spin its wheels, it needs a new permanently mobilized progressive (anti-corporate) political movement yesterday.

Strong disagree. Autism is only hard because neurotypicals make it hard. It needs to be demedicalized and normalized, and people need to embrace the idea of neurodivergence.

If you have created PoC characters, wouldn't you send out a casting call for PoC voice actors? Otherwise why bother creating PoC characters to then whitewash them.
Because they're a bunch of opportunistic white people who want to look like they are good and progressive, but not actually do anything to help or elevate POC.
Worthless ass non-apology, but what do you expect from a group of white people? Their promises to do better have meant nothing for centuries.

To facilitate this effort, we are also cutting some red tape and giving moderators who have a personal understanding and perspective of the issues at stake more latitude to moderate threads of a sensitive nature. The benefit of this is that problematic posters should be removed more quickly, which will hopefully have a positive effect on the quality of threads.
:cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop :cop
Among the most important of those changes is that bans for bigotry will be significantly longer going forward. Users who engage in such behaviour will also be given fewer chances before being permanently banned. We will also be making greater efforts to identify and take harsher action against subtler bad faith behaviour, such as: speaking over marginalised voices, concern trolling in sensitive threads, and dismissive drive-by posting. This is something that we have already started to implement, and will be further enforced and made routine as we close out the year.
While staff posts have been a tool that we have used since the forum's inception, we aim to make more guideline staff posts in sensitive threads.
Super Mario Maker 2 Update - SEE STAFF POST
-
:lol internet forums are serious fucking business.
-
We understand that there are a number of marginalised or minority communities that have experienced strain over time. The staff have already met with the TransEra community with positive results, and we plan to reach out to others for direct discussions in the coming new year.
In the past we have not always communicated or dialogued as well as we could and should have. In order to help address this, we are drawing up plans to establish a Community Relations team in the near future.
As usual, posts that come after a staff post will be moderated more strictly, but this does not mean that posts that came before the staff post are immune.

Just reading up on that.
Wild, around here AFAIK cops will disengage pursuit if it is deemed too risky to bystanders.
But gotta say, there were a few dumb takes from the people criticizing the wild cop show. Saying stuff like why'd they hide behind civilian cars, they seriously expect people to bodyblock bullets for the 1 ton metal death machine?
-
What's even more dumb is there's videos on Twitter of the driver supposedly coming out (at least it looks like it) but they just start firing with no regard to civilian safety. The news helicopter feed was cut but they basically opened fire as soon as they pulled up. The pigs are using "oh but they were firing in the first place!" as an excuse to dump 200+ rounds into a live civilian area.

So, uh, if what I just heard is accurate, not only is FeistyBoots a troll, but he (yes he identifies as male) is not the only one with some degree of visibility.
I have a friend in the TransEra discord that is aware of 4 other posters excluding Feisty in there that are total trolls, 2 of which are high profile posters. Out of all 5 of these alleged trolls, only 1 is actually trans/nb, and she's apparently the biggest edgelord of them all.
FeistyBoots is the only name I've been given since my friend wants to see how far the others can take it and she thinks he's laying it on way too thick and is probably going to get exposed soon anyway. And no, I'm not going to name my friend either since she actually does like it in there even if she acknowledges it gets heavy handed at times.
Of course she could also be totally fucking with me here. Wouldn't be the first time. I asked her if I could post it here and she said yeah since it would be funny (I know you're reading this, lol). I guess we'll see what happens and if they ever get exposed.

The more I read those updated guidelines, the more it sounds like they are just reverting back to the style of modding NeoGAF used before its implosion. When Reee first started, they attempted at more transparent and less heavy handed moderation that NeoGAF was known for. Of course that didn't last for even a year, but at least they put in the effort to lie. All that did was piss off the protected users enough to force Cerium and all to bring back NeoGAF-style moderation.

If the video is found to have been destroyed or lost by the bar, Phipps’ team argued charges relating to the tape should be dropped.
it obviously goes without saying that all men are rapists and all accusations are true, but uh.... if you have charges filed with video evidence as the basis for those charges and that video evidence goes missing before the trial... dropping those charges seems the just thing to do, no?

Basically what they are saying is if you are not part of the marginalized group the thread is about, stay out or eat a ban.
LGBT threads for LGBT members only
Threads about black people are for black people only, BCT members in particular.
A thread about women? Men stay the fuck out!
Reee is actually advocating becoming more segregated, ironically enough :lol
Era's definition of sexuality and gender is so vague, that any thread is open to anyone, though. :rollsafe

Nup, just before his ban he was trying to care dad the trans community but got rejected by the frightwigs. So the trans angle is out. He's probably thinking about making a good ole suicide thread and spinning that into care dadding the mental community. It's risky though because KetKat sits on the mental's throne and has strong support from the kingdom of frightwigs.

So, uh, if what I just heard is accurate, not only is FeistyBoots a troll, but he (yes he identifies as male) is not the only one with some degree of visibility.
I have a friend in the TransEra discord that is aware of 4 other posters excluding Feisty in there that are total trolls, 2 of which are high profile posters. Out of all 5 of these alleged trolls, only 1 is actually trans/nb, and she's apparently the biggest edgelord of them all.
FeistyBoots is the only name I've been given since my friend wants to see how far the others can take it and she thinks he's laying it on way too thick and is probably going to get exposed soon anyway. And no, I'm not going to name my friend either since she actually does like it in there even if she acknowledges it gets heavy handed at times.
Of course she could also be totally fucking with me here. Wouldn't be the first time. I asked her if I could post it here and she said yeah since it would be funny (I know you're reading this, lol). I guess we'll see what happens and if they ever get exposed.
Wow at this alt-right smear against a key leader of TransEra who was at The Summit which SweetNicole opened with a foreward. This is yet another attempt by the gators to spread myths like that Enzom21 was a poster or that the ads on ResetERA.com are a problem or that an LLC can have a single owner.
This definitely makes the calls for summits more important than ever.

This is the part that made it extra funny. Her name isn't Sasha Grey! That's a stage name. You pick a stage name in porn so you can drop it and disappear. She dropped porn but kept the stage name and uses it for everything from normal acting to music to writing sex-romance novels to these gaming streams. So even if you knew nothing about her, it's clear she doesn't find it shameful. If you do know anything about her she has long talked about how she did porn because it was fun to her. She does want to be known for more than porn but she's never said she regrets it or spoken ill of it other than when she was backing up some fellow people in that whole "feminist porn" thing. And then they were never condemning porn, but simply industry practices at the time.
It's another example of where they ape progressive things they've seen without ever looking into any of it and then just come off as prudes. Nobody in the thread was condemning "sex work" they were making joking references to someone famous for a lot of things that aren't simple "sex work" as Sasha was fucking nuts* in porn. Yet somebody clearly got butthurt about it and had to protect the wommins who are not Sasha Grey. This isn't even accounting for the fact that the rule is most likely there because there are ResetERA.com users who make shitty porn under the same username they use on ResetERA.com since I can't imagine a situation in which users on a "progressive forum" would be "condemning sex work" in a way that wouldn't be triggering to some Westerner. You would never be banned for condemning third world sex work that's essentially slavery would you?
Plus the jokes were even incredibly tame, especially for the topic, I'm sure non-pornstar lady streamers have seen worse comments. Especially from capital-G Gamers of which there are none allowed on ResetERA.com.
*Even her Wikipedia page notes that she got famous for asking a co-star to punch her in the stomach during filming. She was always up for crazy shit.

I had a buddy who got in trouble because somebody ran up to attack the truck he was driving and he fired out the window to stop the attack. This broke the ROE and he finished his military career as a specialist. Meanwhile we get to see videos of cops breaking the rules, killing someone, and they get paid vacations for it.
Wild.
Stricter rules despite the people involved being much likelier to explode than to just be wielding a very, very blurry and scary phone.
Apparently, on reddit anyway, the driver/hostage was crawling out of the UPS van before the firing started. So they lit him up anyway. WTF.
I'm also pretty sure you'd at least be reprimanded for wasting ammo and being awful shots as the police do. Look up the car in Miami, that stopped and had surrendered, that the police then fired like over 300 rounds at and hit ten times or something. There's how many instances of police unloading all their ammo and hitting only other police.
Like a decade ago there was one car that ran a checkpoint in Iraq and the MPs or whatever shot it up (with far far fewer rounds expended), they all got reprimanded for how they handled it as the car had made it through the checkpoint and was obstinately driving away. They were, in theory, supposed to have let it go but they continued firing at it. IIRC, it wouldn't have mattered much as they had killed the driver with the first few shots. It was still a BIG DEAL thing. And I guess they were legit insurgents and car had weapons and such in it.
Cops want to play military and use all the gear and equipment but without any of the rules/guidelines/training that the military still follows pretty strictly. (Even when they're waiving all kinds of other rules to get people into uniform, they thankfully tend to not skirt the rules so much after they get them.)

Pardon my bluntness, but this is a silly and entirely impractical idea for a lot of reasons. If someone breaks the terms of service or posting guidelines in a way that merits a ban, they should be banned. Period. That's not 'being trigger-happy', that's enforcing the rules of the forum. Adding arbitrary waiting times on top of that only serves to lengthen thread derailments, increase hostility, and burden the communities most directly affected by the behavior. This "I'm sure I can convince them to stop engaging in the ban-worthy behavior they already engaged in!"-idea is silly. How long should staff have to wait before banning someone who engaged in a ban-worthy offense? How many people should 'get the chance to convince them' before staff can finally ban them? One? Two? Three? As many as you deem it necessary for each individual case? What if nobody shows up to 'defuse the situation'? Now think about how all this immensely complicates moderation on the staff side, necessitating moderators to monitor one specific thread for an arbitrary amount of time to see if anyone shows up to 'convince' or 'defuse' the one specific user in question, thus diverging their attention away from the rest of the forum. How long should they let these types of discussions play out for? What if the user does not respond? Should the user be banned only if they explicitly and harshly double down, or should they be allowed a third chance to retract? What if one user's ban-worthy behavior feeds into another user engaging in similar ban-worthy behavior in part due to an apparent lack of moderator action? Should staff just allow threads to be derailed to be entirely about this one person's behavior? Should one person's determination to 'defuse' the situation overrule all other participants of the thread? Should staff burden vulnerable communities with having to 'defuse' behavior that harms them before they ban the user engaging in that behavior?
There's absolutely been times where people have been engaged by others by the time staff got their eyes on a situation, and in those situations, that engagement is absolutely taken into account in weighing how long - or even if - a person should be banned, but it is entirely impractical to expect a blanket policy of a mandatory and arbitrary waiting time for each and every ban, not to mention that it makes the communities most directly affected by the behavior feel less safe and secure on this forum.

When I see staff members, both former and current, talk about how much time they spend moderating the forum and how much of a toll that is or was on them, it does make me wonder if maybe you should have more staff members than you do? Mist mentioned earlier in here that some staff spent their entire day yesterday going through reports, and I feel like if you had more people, then that load could be lightened and perhaps it wouldn't cause you all to spend hours and hours of your day going through reports.
40 staff for over 48,000 members seems like a really low number to me, less than 0.1%, and when I see people saying that they spend most of their days helping to moderate the forum, that makes me worry that you are all burning yourselves out really fast trying to keep up with everything you need to deal with here on a daily basis. This forum is big, tons of posts and threads are made each day, and you're all doing great work keeping up with it as is, but it still doesn't sound healthy to me in the long run, it just seems like a disproportionate amount of stress is being placed on you all to me, and that makes me worry about you

I once read a whole bunch of the Wikipedia articles of porn stars back before they cleaned them out for being too detailed, but I totally am not the porn hound others here are. Sasha Grey's entry is kinda more like how they all used to be as they used to be sourced from all kinds of porn fan sites/interviews/etc. that now isn't allowed.
The only other one I can claim any special knowledge about is Bobbi Starr because she got a music degree and became a classically trained oboe player before swerving into porn and the jokes write themselves, also she's in this video naming non-Mario games:

Mod Post: Reducing an adult film star to their profession is an offense of the highest order and will result in an immediate ban. It is sexist because you jerk it to videos of Sasha Grey getting pounded by a dozen hogs at a time, which is not allowed in our TOS. We support Ms. Grey in her career choices and even though we don't allow conversations surrounding the topics of gang-banging and bukkake, we are proud of her contributions to the world of film as a woman. An ERA approved way to discuss the actors/actresses in the adult film industry would be to include a fun fact about them, such as their favorite color and omitting any language that could be seen as sexual in nature as it could be offensive to segments of our preferred communities (If you are unclear as to the necessity of this last rule, PM Royalan for an explanation.)

Will Era ever impose a feature that hides threads from lurker view that are sensitive topics, like trans focused threads?
Would it ever be possible to identify someone who screenshots posts and submits them to hate sites?
I have the feeling hiding threads would be a victory for those sites, giving the impression they have power on people they dislike and force them to hide. Yes those websites exist and I am surprised by the amount of hate they display, even by Internet standards. Given the words, they use I am surprised they haven't been sued more. I know American laws allow a lot of thigs because of the holy freedom speech, but still surprised there haven't been more lawsuits.
I don't think it would be possible to identify people's screenshotting posts without resorting to intrusive methods.
The only solution that could be considered might be threads reserved to people belonging to subgroups I guess, some forums let you post in a section only if you request joining a specific group.(that limits spam but also other problems). However it might restrict the scope of conversations.

I have the feeling hiding threads would be a victory for those sites, giving the impression they have power on people they dislike and force them to hide. Yes those websites exist and I am surprised by the amount of hate they display, even by Internet standards. Given the words, they use I am surprised they haven't been sued more. I know American laws allow a lot of thigs because of the holy freedom speech, but still surprised there haven't been more lawsuits.
I don't think it would be possible to identify people's screenshotting posts without resorting to intrusive methods.
The only solution that could be considered might be threads reserved to people belonging to subgroups I guess, some forums let you post in a section only if you request joining a specific group.(that limits spam but also other problems). However it might restrict the scope of conversations.
:dead :dead :dead :dead
Elon might shed some light on why it is pointless to sue someone "Given the words they use."

Back in the day a guy we banned from the forums tried to send us a personally drafted "cease and desist" lawsuit threat by mailing it to the address of the domain registrar on the WHOIS. (Which was just a server farm, not their business address I guess.) Even though there was an actual address and name for one of the admins also on the WHOIS.
I unbanned him from a thread he could post in to try and explain his plan. But he refused. :'(

User Banned ( 2 Weeks): Objectifying and sexist commentary. Please do not reduce sex workers and former sex workers to their past work
Banned for wanting to see two twitch streamers together on a stream.
Also, it's kind of strange how smart Sasha Grey came off but then she revealed she was pressured into porn by her BF who claimed to be part of a spy task force called the DIA or some bullshit. He said her doing porn would be a great cover for him and his spy work.
I know that smart people can be emotionally manipulated and she was still a teenager at the time but it does change the way I look at her choices. But in the end she came out of it with poise and dignity even if ERA thinks her past is shameful and all references of it should be banned.

User Banned (9 Days): Inflammatory Accusations
no, this is the nail in the coffin for ol' Bernard, who is the strongest against Trump in the general and is currently leading the field in California.
It's funny to see who would prefer Trump over Bernie to the point that they have to rush to post every minor fuckup his campaign makes (and then rectifies not even an hour after they post it).
At some point, aren't threads like this just bait? Like at least wait for the CNN article, don't go posting right-ring rags and Twitter reactionaries.

A girl I really really like and had a major crush on said that she's not really interested when I asked her our last night. I was really hoping she would be up for going out, as I love her character and who she is. And she is also one of the few people I actually know here in Sweden that I'm interested in keeping in touch with, with most others being random people from work.
Haven't slept, been overthinking a hundred situations of how maybe I approached her wrongly or didn't choose the right moment, or who the hell knows what.
Also having a birthday in a few weeks when I turn 29 and not really having any friends to do anything with over the one month of vacation I have coming now for the holidays, is kind of hitting me hard. With all the burnout from work, I can just sense a self destructive period coming up again, just as I managed to get out of one.
I have no regrets as those are pointless and all the mistakes I've done have made me who I am now, but stuff like this drains the life out of me and makes me question whether coming to Sweden was a good choice. Feel like leaving all behind and running away again as I did before I came here. 🤷
Is Ketkat ever going to post in this thread again? It was the most important reason to unban her I thought.

Having just rewatched this for the first time in like eight years, it's even better than I could have realized, it doesn't pull any punches in regards to just how truly, utterly miserable this holiday can be. A movie all about spending time with your family when your family just so happens to all be terrible, terrible people. I don't know how it is for everyone else here but my extended family are terrible and having to spend time with them for even a brief period of time is hell on earth, and because of that Christmas Vacation is probably the most relatable Christmas movie I've ever seen.

lmao that ban
I was reading through the posts, why was op banned? Did I miss something? Also Kevin is the true goat
That's a ridiculous ban. OP is right, Michael is an offensive, bad person and highlighting that via the reactions of other characters is the core pillar of the show's humor. It's not downplaying racism. If you lack the intelligence to discern between bad thing and thing that look like bad thing, you probably shouldn't be a moderator.
Okay, this threads getting pretty good now!
Instead of derailing the thread over the ban, just report it and explain why you think it's an error.
Sure, people could do that, like the mods want, or they can just kick up a public fuss, change some avatars for a bit, and make the mods do another humiliating U-turn publically and actually overturn a ban.

The problem with that segment, and the show in general, is that they want to have their characters do terrible things to other people (here being a complete racist buffoon) while also painting them as sympathetic characters that we should care deeply about. Michael pulling that shit was ignominious but instead of confronting the shitty behavior the episode turned it into "awe shucks, michael is a good guy at heart and he just really wanted to do something fun with the dundies so lets cheer him on". Like instead of reflecting on the racist antics and making that the central issue, the episode turned it into a michael pity party when others at the bar started making fun of him. I disagree entirely that they wanted to highlight that he wasnt a good guy. They absolutely turned the episode into the theme of making him a sympathetic good guy. Also OP didn't make that argument, they just flat out stated "lawl his racism is funny".
the OP clearly states that the Michael’s stupidity and lack of self awareness, and not asians, is the target of the joke. There’s a difference.
Seriously. OP didn’t condone Michael’s behavior but pointed out that he is the butt of the joke because he’s an ignorant and oblivious boss who does completely inappropriate things in his role. How was that worth a ban?

Once again not hard to tell who folks with real concerns are vs. the people coming in here sad they might not get to post about blackface. Some of y'all ain't slick.
First of all, thank you for the new updates and transparency. I know you guys work hard.
I’m sorry but I want to bring this up. I don’t know if this is the right place to state this, but I’ve also noticed a big issue on this forum with toxic cravings for controversial threadbackfires against OPs asking for advice. Why is this a problem? Because the last two times I’ve seen it happen, it’s involved mental health issues. This affects people’s safety. I think when a thread involves mental health issues it warrants some tact and careful moderation and ive been seeing a lack of that.
Last week someone posted that they have borderline personality disorder and their girlfriend left them and they were feeling suicidal. Some posters, instead of offering consolation and deeescalation of suicidal tendencies, decided to interrogate OP about why they broke up, which led to more personal details, which turned into a snowball of people attacking OP and summoning a thread backfire. OP had them admitted he started dating his girlfriend when she was 16 and he was 19. People then started implying he was a predator, even though he explained he lived in a part of Australia where age of consent was 16 and it was irrelevant anyway to the fact that OP was suicidal and this was years later. Now I’m NOT defending any inappropriate physical contact with a minor, it’s just seemed like he appropriately explained that he did nothing wrong and the main priority of the thread was that someone with BPD was suicidal and asking for help *now*. People showed gross ignorance and lack of tact for the OP’s borderline personality disorder. I tried to intervene and defend OP and they thanked me later via PM, but the thread ended up getting locked.

The second time was this week where a frustrated OP announced his friend tried to commit suicide and he was grieving with anger and frustration. Some posters proceeded to call the OP a shitty, selfish friend, and derailed the conversation when OP said from the get go that it was just his personal feelings. Those comments from backlashers were not helpful or relevant, just petty petitions for a thread backfire.

Is there something we can do regarding the toxic culture of people attacking OPs who are mentally ill or looking for help? It’s honestly getting dangerous IMO

The OP was banned for pointing out that The Office uses racism to show what a bad person Michael is while simultaneously being awkwardly funny. Should we restrain from acknowledging any media which contains an element including racism or sexism? And if so should we have an official list of "cancelled" properties? That way we can avoid people claiming ignorance.

Maybe don't describe such a horrible scene as "golden" while displaying your white privilege to not give a fuck all in one post? Saying that it's OK because it's just a character and they're making him out to be a terrible person doesn't change a damn thing when they are trying to get laughs from the audience.

Kind of silly unless you're abusive or actually defending racism in your report. Just saying "I think you made a mistake and here's why..." would be fine. It happens from time to time. Don't forget that at least one person probably reported the post which is how it ended up in front of mods in the first place.
With how easily you apparently get banned on here (like OP), I wouldn't want to have the spotlight on me lol

We can either try to move forward as a culture and work to make things better for marginalized people or cling on to hurtful garbage from the past like so many idiots in the South do with their Confederate statues that they like to pretend are not blatant messages of hate towards black people.

The irony of OP’s ban is that The Dundies isn’t even a season 1 episode.
yikes, this is worse than racism

We're living in a hellscape that we can't tell if a random poster on Resetera is either being sarcastic or serious because it reads like a parody of the site.

I am a bit confused because I think there is a series about spies that has "office" in its title. First time I seriously read about this series because I didn't hear much about it before. So it is a comedy abot a company producing paper...And the boss Michael is racist?

Well that Former Adult Film Star plays a video game thread went exactly as I thought it did...
It was incredibly disheartening to see basic sexist behavior being exhibited by people who very definitely claim to know better in many other situations.
It seems like people want to not consider adult film stars as real people and as such they feel free to engage in total sexist behaviors. It's disgusting.
It's exactly what it is. Objectifying and dehumanizing a human being because said human being was (or is) a sex worker. It reeks of so much misogyny, I'm baffled people engaged in such behavior repeatedly, and were still not seeing the problem when rightfully being called out about it. Basic feminism 101 lessons are flying way over their heads.
Yeah it was straight up awful.
It was really bad. Topics like that show how bad gaming side can be, and in general, this site. I know mods do the bet they can, and I appreciate their effort, but it is really hard to deal with the daily sexism, racism, classicism and more you deal with people that "just want to talk about games without taking into account the damage they might do with their views."
WTH am I reading? And all the "No fun allowed posts"?
Ah I see, yeah that's pretty bad. The whole "of course every GUY knows who she is" attitude of a few posts bugs me. Toxic masculinity at its worst.
I was at work during lunch when I saw and replied on the thread. Now imagine my shock when I returned and saw alle the vile shit people were posting.
You would think ERA of all places wouldn't have this garbage but no, it is even worse than twitch comments.
Glad the ban hammer was used.
Yeah this forum can get toxic when certain discussions come up.
Never go into a thread about dating apps.
Jesus fucking christ, how dehumanizing. Good to see the thread became half a graveyard, but people should know better ffs.
Also:
At what point does something ceases to be just a fun thing made for the pleasure of being shocked, and instead begins to be a gross promotion of misogyny? Because this anonymous confessions thread really is upsetting me right now.
Posts like the 35 yo creep dating a 17 yo?
I noped out of there in like five minutes. Props to people that have the stomach to keep reading that stuff; I don't.
The first one I read (and replied to) was someone saying that he and his wife talked to cats and then "talked back" as them, which is something me and my SO also do (yeah, avatar quote). Let's just say the mood whiplash from the couple next ones was quite something.
Yep, just turned up to that thread and actually was skimming, saw your post about talking through cats, and though, "eh, this isn't bad, there's cute cat stories". Then I went to the next page.
I was not prepared and now feel sick to my stomach. That poster should be banned, fuck anomity, he's confessing to raping his wife (and yeah, forcing someone to get pregnant against their will is rape, and even the way he describes, am pretty sure he raped her via force as well.
I actually didn't read that specific confession you're talking about now (HOLY FUCKING SHIT!). It was other stuff I read (racism was a common thread) that made me nope out. Speaking of pregnancies; I also remember the woman who (allegedly, because I suspect over half of these confessions are blatant lies) got pregnant on purpose to prevent his boyfriend from leaving her. What could possibly go wrong?
Sorry, I guess we should stop bringing that garbage here; the topic of the thread is dark enough as is...
Wait, what did the anonymous confessor thread do this time?
...
...
...What the actual fuck!?! How fucking hard is it to respect women!?! And now he's just going to abandon after claiming to want a large family...that is disgusting and if I say anymore I'll probably get banned.
I figured from the getgo there'd be stuff like this, and I know the second I looked into the thread it'd be a matter of seeing stuff that couldn't be unseen or forgotten (literally a problem for me having OCD/Generalized Anxiety).
Related to your and SchrodingerC 's post and speaking of confessions, I was a moderator and then admin of an FF forum many many years ago. There was a user there who was a very out and proud pedophile. He made journal posts about this young girl he was in love with but was currently just friends with and would talk about his fantasy of running away with her. I brought it up with other mods and admins and they just shrugged it off saying it isn't actually against the rules. I decided to track his IP to the LA area, talked to a detective with the LAPD and faxed him a huge transcript of his posts (about half an inch thick) about his pining for this girl. Never heard back and I left the forum soon after (that and I just haven't been as much of an FF fan as I once was). It was one of things I appreciated about joining GAF and then this place was that unapologetic weeding out of undesirables.

I'm not sure why it's even allowed considering:
Hangout Threads
When a thread has been moved to the Hangouts it will usually have built up a community of regulars. These threads can sometimes develop a culture of their own; for this reason we allow members in those threads a little more leeway in regards to banter and similar behavior with each other. Please be aware however that the rules of the forum still apply and that every thread must be welcoming to newcomers. Do not use community threads to snipe at staff or other members.

This ban is absolutely ridiculous and closing the thread with that statement is cowardly.
OP literally got banned for liking The Office, the most watched show on Netflix.
He wasn't banned for liking The Office. He was banned for dismissing the racism in the scene as just "no filter." A thread in which we are discussing how best to handle bigotry isn't the place to talk about how certain kinds of bigotry aren't so bad. Do not hijack the thread over a single ban, given this is not what this thread is about.
Then maybe we should have a thread for that, because there is no place for it currently. Make that a policy. There are like 20 people in that thread not understanding the ban, are you aware of that?

Given the number of confessions that are breaking both site rules and the OP's own rules, this thread will remain locked until further notice. We are really disappointed by the state of this thread.

Reading what’s happening to the Trans community on Era really reminds me of a lot of what we’ve talked about here; a culture of discrimination and dog whistling and a mod team happy to look the other way
Pretty much. Era got the Liebfeld shoulder muscles patting themselves on the back at how some they are.
They're young, and it's all moral grandstanding. I doubt they even believe--let alone practice--what they preach. "There's no ethical consumption under capitalism." "Climate change will kill us all, so stop driving forever." "All religion is always bad." "Science is the only truth, but dinosaurs can't have feathers."
Only ERA users deal in absolutes.
Most of the posters here are white. That's all you really need to know.
They just keep coming like lemmings too.....
It’s just so fucking frustrating that it’s impossible to criticise Era from the left.
Try to do it here, and you’re dancing on fucking eggshells, and no matter how much you neuter your message, you’re still toying with a ban. Try to do it outside of Era, and it’s like shining the fucking bat signal for Gamergate types to co-opt your message into some anti-SJW screed
Whether by accident or intention (and I increasingly suspect it’s the latter), leadership have created a perfect little fiefdom for themselves with no meaningful mechanism for redress
do i even want to know? am i happier in ignorance?
White Lib Shit Era. That's all you need to know.
Have you guys noticed that there's a bit of a scandal/blowup involving the mod team and some segments of the LGBTQIA+ community here?
I made a post referencing it a few days ago. Shit is really bad, but not surprising given our own experiences with moderation here
I've only skimmed various pages of the 2 threads. I noticed that a few posters acknowledged the mod teams shortcoming in dealing with, not just issues affecting the LGBTQIA+ communities, but some POC communities as well - one poster even specifically cited Asian-Era.
I did. Because they are bad at it.
I've been reading about that off and on, and yeah, it's not too different from what we deal with.
Maaaybe they should've listened to minorities and lgbtq+ regarding bad faith posts from the start. 🤔 🤔 🤔
Ya, I'm mostly done posting on OT.
Era is only going to try to address the Trans-Era problem because they fucked that one up real bad. They aren’t gonna do shit for the rest of us.
But fucking solid props to the pointing out that Era has done other communities fucking dirty too.
Guess it's time for Asian Era to make an Exodus.
It is sad but the attitude towards Asians just keep getting worst.
Filipino American here, I don't really engage with a lot of community OTs and after the Trans Awareness week BS it's apparent to me I should be more involved with this stuff.
I guess it's weird for my first post in here to be about asking for a Discord invite, but if you'll have me I'd love to join that.
Anyone still here?
So who complained if they all left in droves weeks ago?
In a move that should surprise no one, white dudes are using “I support Hong Kong” to hit on Asian women, as I got to see at Dim Sum yesterday.
I probably said “Oh you’re fucking kidding me.” At the appropriate volume in which to shame this person.

Jordan, a 49-year-old college graduate, took the exam in 1996 and scored 33 points, the equivalent of an IQ of 125. But New London police interviewed only candidates who scored 20 to 27, on the theory that those who scored too high could get bored with police work and leave soon after undergoing costly training.
That was the same kind of reasoning that that Japanese medical school gave for changing the scores of women applicants. Nice to know corruption is the same everywhere

Weird question right before the movie is out.
Something about her words seems out of context.
Reads more like she's on the defensive considering all the attacks she's whethered. I'd give her a little time to think about just what they were asking and see what she thinks.
Ya I’m confused. Everyone jumping on the girl already...
It does feel like a bit of a trap.
It's a very weird question to ask. Interviewer know what he/she was doing.
Most people fail to recognize their privilege but these quotes don't really even make sense. I'd love to see the raw transcript as much of this is paraphrased or injected by the author, including the questions
What was even the point of that question?
Ofcourse. Now the stance has changed like "oh I read it in wikipedia". FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH YOUR WEAK-ASS JOURNALISM.
Where can I apply to be a WEAK-ASS journalism getting opportunities to ask people these WEAK-ASS baited questions?
Also not sure why the question was ever brought up? Author tries to backtrack and saying how they both grew up with privilege and it wasn’t meant to detour the interview, bullshit. That’s the only reason for such a question.
Alright. Time to ask the same question for you fellow white MALE artists who have had that privilege. I'll be waiting for them to do that. Nope, they won't ask and instead praise them for such an exemplary work.
Maybe they should go after Magnusson for getting a role in Aladdin spinoff, but no they fucking won't. They can't, they won't, they never will, because they can measure BALLS to BALLS. They measure TITS to TITS.
I fucking hate how women are treated in the industry, and this is not helping anyone.
But no, let's give a round of applause to the Polanskis of the industry.
I've no idea how her grandfather working at the BCC or her going to a private school have anything to do with how she navigates being trusted in such a massive role. With less privilege she would've handled that position worse?
Messofanego, report these people please.

Can you explain how "ghoul" is a sexist term, or are you going to continue to diminish actual sexism?
I'm trying to avoid derailing the thread too much, but if calling her a witch is sexist than moving one step from that should be too. Mocking her voice is apparently a 3 day, and in a previous thread calling her a cunt is worth just a warning, so I'm not sure how the grading in this class works.

Its is obvious the mods are super overcompensating and are just blindly banning people for the slimmest instance of perceived bigotry, leaving context and common sense on the wayside (more so than usual). All this does is to encourage people to stick to OTs and generals threads or just peace out all together.

On a side note, did you ever think of an official way to allow banned users to reply to a ban reason, even if via PM, to hear from them in a more thoughtful manner? Again - and this has been said here several times before - sometimes bans feel unnecessarily harsh because there's a clear view from most of the user base that the offending user acted out of ignorance, was being naive or joked about sensitive matters when the situation clearly didn't allow it.

As I write this I'm literally breathing smoke, we have bush fires within 15km on each side of us and it's only a matter of time until they reach here. Summer has just started. I fully expect to have to evacuate by Xmas. The fire services are slowing it but have no way of stopping it, they reckon it will continue until it runs out of fuel or until we get sustained rain which is unlikely to happen until next year. Climate change is real and already having very real impacts on communities, flora and fauna. I know people here in Australia who have already lost their homes to fire and I know people back in the UK who lost nearly everything to flood last month. We're fucked and no one in power seems to care.
fires? in Australia? in the summer?

I imagine some just think they're so rich they can build any kind of safe zone fortress they need for themselves.
Don't know how they'll survive as social life forms, however, if the rest of the world is killing itself just to survive. Gonna be some Long Night shit. People freezing by their fires, going insane in seclusion, etc...
in all my years of going to the beach, I have never experienced colder water temperatures, as I have this summer. It’s the middle of freaking summer and the water is freezing. Something’s definitely not right.
10s of thousands of years of human history and I get to be born just in time for the mass extinction event.
Humans continue to be the most destructive force this planet has ever seen.
It won't be long until millions of people need to migrate or die.
The idea that everyone is going to die from this anyway greatly alleviates my depression.
Reminder to live as though you're dying, because in this case we might actually be dying soon.

What I don't get is why Cerium doesn't just open the floodgates and approve every pending application for Ree. Like fuck trying to maintain a community you have no control over anyway. Just enjoy the chaos and makemmoney off of malware ads that you also pretend you have control of.

Make an appointment with a therapist and take steps to work through your problems. You've been drowning in bitterness for a long time now, and you radiate all that negativity outward, which changes how people act toward you in return. No matter how you've been wronged in the past, the people you're interacting with now are not those people, yet you treat everyone as if they are.
See a therapist.

Hey, mods, we're gonna need some clarification here. What exactly is the "inappropriate commentary" in this post? Is it calling Hillary a ghoul, or is it the "they're insufferable" part? Because "ghoul" is not a sexist term and SurrenderDorothy should not have been banned for it. "Ghoul" has nothing to do with Hillary's appearance, it's not specific to women, it's not even unique to her. It's an increasingly common insult thrown around online for politicians that people don't like.
For example:
Missouri GOP are ghouls who should be jailed for life
They needed help to unlock a suspect’s account, not one of their own agents, you cousin-fucking ghoul.
(that one's about Giuliani)
Get fucked, you ghoul. I really hope he gets in trouble again after Trump is out of office.
LOL at the “Steady State”.
Fuck them all. Useless cowards and self-important ghouls.
That is just one, ONE, single brick in this monster's heinous legacy. He has done so much harm to so many others. The audacity to try to frame him as anything less than a ghoul is staggering.
(about Reagan)
Have zero problem with Momentum weaponising Twitter against the ghouls standing for the Conservative party, or the worse end of the Lib Dems.
Even Nunes had the sense to say he wouldn’t comment. Gym Jordan seriously has no shame. Him and Gaetz are so beyond any sort of redemption, it’s sickening to see, and people keep voting for these soulless ghouls.
So as we can see, it is a term that is widely used and accepted on this forum and for which people do not get banned.
If the issue is that SurrenderDorothy said "they're insufferable", does that mean we can't express frustration at people who vote for candidates we don't like? Because we do that all the time for some other politicians and parties (considering the leanings of the userbase of this site, it's often quite justifiable!). It doesn't seem like any particular posters were being attacked in the post. If that's the reason for the ban, then we need clarity on it so we know what the bounds are.

Some of these posts in here attempting to shame the OP are absolutely disgusting.
This is a gaming enthusiast forum and we have people attempting to police how long is healthy to spend on hoobies per day, equating the user to a heroin addict and advising them that the have symptoms similar to substance abuse.
I don't think it's OK to even suggest other forum poster is an addict. You guys are just reading some post on a forum and have 0 idea of what's really going on in their life, come on.
Yeah those posts were really gross.
you covered it pretty well. This and shenmue sales threads are the kind of threads that make me wash my face after reading all that disgusting shit people come up with.
It's embarrassing how many people apparently spend their days; literally just waiting for any angle to attack someone for doing what they like.
I’ve mentioned it before but this thread has really tipped me over the edge. I have to and will take a break from Era for a bit. I do love this place, but it also continues to have a tendency to be insanely backwards.
Glad you got it working OP. I’ve been interested in Nioh for a while but hearing shit like this makes me feel like it could really click with me. You’re crazy, no doubt. But that’s not a bad thing. It’s rad as hell when you find a game that you just need to play like that. Not for completion, not for ranks, not for achievements, but simply because you want to play it. Because you’re crazy about it.
I don’t think I have a game matching those hours, even fighting games which are what my highest hour counts are in. But I do have games that I just must play sometimes. My big ones are Viewtiful Joe, Metroid Prime, and Banjo Kazooie. I basically have a bodily need to beat each of these at least once a year, and most of the time more than that. I probably have over 1000 hours put into them combined. Do your shit. It’s normal to be astounded by that hour count because it’s...well astounding. But to judge is some horse shit, especially at a place like this. Play your fucking games. That’s what life’s about.
The number of people looking down their nose at the OP is pretty gross. Mind your own business and let people enjoy what they want to enjoy.
this sounds like some capital-G Gamer shit
ironically, despite how much i have played it...nioh isnt a game i'd put in my top 5 or maybe even top 10...its not one of the greatest games of all time for me and its certainly not as memorable as many other games i could mention...i just think its fun...if that makes sense...i love the gameplay and the mechanics surrounding it, not the game itself, although its a good game, i'd give it a solid 8 out of 10 overall...er..i dunno if i said it right.

I'm trying to avoid derailing the thread too much, but if calling her a witch is sexist than moving one step from that should be too. Mocking her voice is apparently a 3 day, and in a previous thread calling her a cunt is worth just a warning, so I'm not sure how the grading in this class works.
It's slimy straight up how you are now switching it from a ghoul to a witch which is now gender specific and the ban on who you quoted is bullshit. This is seriously some trash shit you pulled and the mod is trash for the ban. It should be reserved from your derailment.

that freaking "not having privilege" bit
is so freaking insidious, she knew what she was doing.
Notice how the “gotcha” question you’ve quoted isn’t in quotes? We don’t know exactly what the question was in order to contextualize the answer properly, except for what was being fed to us by the author in order to get the desired reaction from readers like yourself.
Except these interviews are literally set up to promote the movie, not to have in depth interview on the actor/director/writer's life. Those can also exist, and at those times it's appropriate to ask those types of questions. Alternatively, journalists can research a story, find solid sources, and write an article without the subject's input. It's their job to "act as a PR arm for a billion dollar company" because they're literally paid to do these puff interviews.
Tossing out these bait questions to people who are on a press tour, and are likely tired of doing hours and hours of contractually-obligated promotion for their new movie, has nothing to do with actual journalism. It's all an attempt to manufacture something that can generate hits and create some sort of controversy. It's true with this, it was true of the "Martin Scorsese's thoughts on the MCU" debacle, and it's true just about every time these types of things come up. This is literally "Gotcha Journalism".

Oh my fucking God. What the fuck is wrong with these people?
If a film is being promoted on its "woke" credentials and the film's stars are being promoted as being woke, then questions about their interpretation of that are definitely on the table (not that any questions should ever be off the table).
Also, the journalists are not paid to do PR for anyone. They are there to ask relevant questions and report. Fuck me dead...

Ree are dumb dumbs again. Daisy is British, the Guardian is British.
Being privileged there has a different meaning than "White Privilege".
It's an ongoing discussion about how people who graduate from certain universities get most of the jobs in government and corporations and you can only get on those universities if you're well connected and wealthy.
There's a still a higher class in general even though the class system doesn't exist on paper anymore. But being privileged in the UK goes way beyond just the narrow definition of the color of your skin or your gender.
-
Nah the definition is the same. Resetera uses accusations of privaledge to demean and devalue people, so they were offended that a journalist would "go after" someone that they like.

How about you actually do something when people troll in mental health threads? You guys couldn't give a shit and don't even give out warnings.
Then maybe we should have a thread for that, because there is no place for it currently. Make that a policy. There are like 20 people in that thread not understanding the ban, are you aware of that?
Then that's their problem. The closing post makes it abundantly clear why he was banned. It's a good ban. Just because you think something racist is funny doesn't mean it's not, in fact, racist. Do you not see in that closing post where they said it made members of Asian-era uncomfortable? Jesus, get a grip. You wanting to feel ok for finding a racist gag funny does not override their right to feel safe here.
Friends is also a popular show and yet it still has problematic scenes that would seem dated at best today if not actually bigoted. The popularity of a show should not prevent people from examining the issues it has. As dreams stated, the reason for the ban is clearly stated in the lock message. He was not banned for simply liking a show, but rather his response to a particular scene. We're fully aware of your argument, but that doesn't change the fact that sometimes jokes can perpetuate racist stereotypes. Would you find it too far for a black member to feel offended at white users laughing at a scene where Michael is in blackface, and they think it's hilarious that he's "unfiltered"? Not to mention that there is something to be said about how the show does not truly hold Michael accountable for his actions, and even sometimes depicts him as someone to sympathise with.
There is a history with these kinds of dehumanising racist depictions that often makes people of colour extremely uncomfortable. The post was reported and discussed by various Asian people in the community and team. We will continue to discuss it with Asian members of the team during the ban review process.
Even if you disagree with the ban, please understand that staging a protest about it in this thread of all places is highly inappropriate and insensitive. If you wish to continue discussing it, you're welcome to reach out to a Mod Captain.
There's definitely a balancing act involved. If the team is too large, it can be difficult to manage, and there are more chances of slip ups and mistakes as a result. But on the other hand, yes, not enough hands and things can get very taxing, especially over time.
We are actually looking for new members of the team at the moment. Both for perspective and also to help out with activity. We also take whether a new candidate could help with certain timezones into account at times. We've been actively discussing new candidates, so you should hopefully see some new faces on the team in the coming weeks. ^^
Sometimes, though, it isn't so much how many people we have, but certain periods of the year can get very busy, and people also have real life commitments or emergencies that pop up. We also advise everyone on the team to prioritise self care and take breaks when needed. That can be difficult at times when you can see the team and community really needs you, though. But we still try our best to strike a balance.
Also wanted to say, thank you for your concern for the team. I really appreciate it. Love and respect. <3

Nobody is ever going to PM a mod captain about their concerns ever again, because that doesn't do shit.

We've gone ahead and removed SurrenderDorothy's ban. We'd like to apologize for the confusion surrounding the ban.
Although "ghoul" has been used against politicians before, the context changes when it's used specifically against a woman (especially an older woman.) The reason for this is because could be considered an attack on her looks. However, after further deliberation and given the ambiguity of how the term has been used, we've opted to lift the ban. We ask that people be more aware of how their rhetoric comes across in the future.
In regards to this thread, however, the conversation has been derailed due to the discussion of the ban. Therefore, we're going to go ahead and lock this thread now

Gonna need the mods to go back and ban those using “ghoul” for ageism. :bolo

A ghoul is a mythical creature that keeps itself alive by feeding off of the dead.
You can see how that has been used a political analogy for - for example - private equity insurance healthcare systems.
There is nothing about it suggesting misogyny or to do with female appearance, or in fact anything female at all, so good fucking job era moderation braintrust that even though you caved on your bullshit ban you still have to drop in a "but I'm still not wrong" at the end, even though you clearly fucking were, clearly fucking are, and will clearly fucking continue to be.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/i-fired-real-guns-for-the-first-time-today.158027/
My brother and friend had been wanting to take me to the gun range for months now after having done it a few times themselves. With nothing to do today and feeling adventurous I decided why not, I'll be an American™ for a few hours. The men running the range were nice enough fellows, although I got to admit the armed officer hanging around the side of the building looked sheisty as hell, and I didn't approve of the "terrorist" target at all, but I'm not about to make a scene in front of a bunch of armed dudes.
I register, watch the safety video, sign up, give them my ID, and we buy the gear- guns, ammo, targets, eye and ear protection. We spent time working on the ear plugs; I was warned that improperly plugging your ears could result in painful tinnitus. Even then that doesn't prepare you for the first time you hear a gun being fired at close range. The moment you open the safety door and someone fires, it's simultaneously like having a balloon popped in your face and having your body shoved in the stereo of an EDM concert. You feel it reverberating through your body as much as you hear it. It's jarring and induced a lizard-brain desire to run, but I merely cinched up before calming down and making my way to my lane.
The guns of choice were a .45 and .9 pistol, a FN SCAR 17 rifle, and a classic six-chamber revolver (yes, we all said "It's High Noon;" fight us.) I was given an overview on the safeties, chambers, and proper handling and posture for each, and immediately understood I would never be able to load these in time during a live fight. Loading magazines sucks. It's like a PEZ dispenser with an attitude.
Shooting was equally intense. The .45's recoil fought back and I was unable to keep the gun steady; got one shot on the edge of the target. The .9 was comparatively a breeze and something I could handle one-handed. The revolver's recoil wasn't bad, but the trigger is five miles long and the anticipation throws you off. Better to just forego squeezing after a point.
The SCAR was the highlight. My brother fired it first while me and my friends were talking. We thought we had become desensitized to the gunfire around us and were hosting conversation. My brother pulled the trigger once and we scattered into the corner. Even from a meter and a half away you can feel the air rushing from the gun as it fires. That thing rocks your bones. I worked up the nerve to fire it a couple of times, and would have done more if the damn rifle wasn't so heavy. That's another thing they don't tell you in the movies: guns are really heavy! Even the pistols feel like sad lumps of lead.
I say all of this to say this: I have done what gun fans have asked of their opponents. I learned proper safety and handling. I have come to better understand the mechanical and etymological differences between different guns. I learned how to properly use the sights. I shot them with an average degree of accuracy.
The experience only cemented my stance to never own one.
I never felt comfortable firing, and I think part of that is because I didn't want to allow myself to become so. The power somehow manages to only become more indescribable and kind of horrible when you actually use one, because then you start contextualizing how it must feel to actually be hit by a bullet rocketing from something that is that heavy, that loud, that explosive. I couldn't imagine. I don't really want to, and it weirds me out to think that there are individuals out there obsessed with owning these things.
So yeah, a bit of abyss staring. I don't begrudge going to the range. It was fun in a daredevil way, particularly with how chickenshit me and my friend were, and I am not ruling out going to there again. But gun ownership? Not for this American. Again, I can barely load magazines. x.x
Can’t wait for the “I just bought an AR-15 with 30% interest over 10 years” thread.

Whats ironic is so many of these posters want to call out criticism of star wars as being littered with sexism, discrimination, etc (which there is a lot of) but then here do everything they can to defend a white privilege response and saying that asking about privilege is somehow an unfair and trap question, completely tuning out a legitimate question regarding an incredibly important issue in society by a female journalist of color. Theyre showing their asses for the hypocrites they are. They only care about these issues so much as in they can use them to shield star wars from criticism.

Giving the asexuals power should have happened in RE a long time ago if it meant all the Rey avatars get their shit bombed out like this
I don't really think anyone in the casting department cared about what school she went to so it's kind of a "gotcha" question.
If there was privilege in her getting the role and even Boyega and Issac getting their roles, it's because they're relatively good looking people to begin with. Which goes for about 95% of actors. She ain't getting cast if she looked like this, I don't care how many private schools she went to or how posh of an upbringing she had.

“We were devoid of a fundamental understanding of Afghanistan — we didn’t know what we were doing,” Douglas Lute, a three-star Army general who served as the White House’s Afghan war czar during the Bush and Obama administrations, told government interviewers in 2015. He added: “What are we trying to do here? We didn’t have the foggiest notion of what we were undertaking.”

Not only I was never a fan of the "angry review thing" but I am still bitter about the ghostbuster thing
Why? He (rightly) didn't see the point of reviewing an unnecessary movie and addressed it in video-form instead of him being bombarded with spam (probably didn't work out the way he anticipated). That's all it was but people made it about something else.
His reasons were bullshit. He is a fan of the franchise, he reviewed other "unnecessary" movies, he reviewed worst stuff from the franchise.
Hell, calling the movie unnecessary and not others is already something for me to be bitter about.
I bet he will review the new one and it is as unnecessary as the women one
:gamergate :rethread :gamergate :rethread
Jesus Fucking Christ of all the reasons to be angry at someone, this has to be the dumbest one.
"He didn't review a shit movie!" :stop

The Flint thing is in the latest Michael Moore documentary.
Obama arrives by plane, is huddled in a room with advisers and then addresses the people to say that everything is fine.
He does a tour doing 3 more appearances, giving the exact same speech, faking drinking the Flint water and then waves goodbye.
Months later the US Army does a surprise urban warfare exercise in the abandoned neighborhood with tanks and attack helicopters. :whew

3 months ban for ‘racism’ on a black person that is levying criticism of Obama. It may be harsh criticism, but if anyone’s entitled to make it, it’s a black person who has personal stakes in the flint situation.

Basically, this is not a safe forum to let yourself be vulnerable. A good chunk of posters aren't interested in helping you, they just want to be entertained and dissect each post the OP makes in an attempt to cause a thread backfire. It's deeply toxic, I've complained about it before, submitted several warnings and was deeply disappointed when the moderation team locked some of those threads without a word and also didn't do any bans. I am hoping (via B-Dubs post) that this will be addressed better in the future.
What does it mean to “speak over” someone on a message board? In real life, one speaks over someone by interrupting them and talking louder than them. Since neither of those are possible on a message board, where one can make a post as long as one likes there is no such thing as loudness, how does one violate this rule?
Example
Transperson: Here's why comment xyz is transphobic and offensive.
Asshole: Here's why that doesn't matter as much as the way I feel.
As unfortunate as it is ResetEra is not a safe platform to talk about yourself having a mental illness or to talk about someone in the public eye who suffers from it. A lot of users do not wish to help you or see someone for whats actually going on (not everyone but easily the majority), Mods have never shown up at best they just lock the thread until a new one is made because the person kills themselves in which then you see them post "RIP".
Until something unfortunately happens where those threads pop up again and we see mods actually do something, the community actually shift away from blaming and instead understanding I personally wouldnt ever suggest this forum as your first means of being open.
I'm not trying to steal focus here from the very legitimate concerns of Minority ERA and LGBTQ+ Era, but I would like to say that the increased focus on moderation going forward also definitely needs to apply to the Gaming side of the house. There are a number of gaming-related topics that bring out their own dedicated cadres of shitposters from post 1 and while staff posts do eventually show up actual warnings and bans are few and far between. Take a look at any thread regarding a Jim Sterling video, the Epic Game Store, or Star Citizen, and you'll find the same posters every time mucking up the threads with the same baseless arguments. It drives off actual discussion and turns threads into piles of flung dung.
It’s fun seeing people with no self-awareness reacting negatively to these policy changes.
If you look at these policies and think “great, now I can’t post what I want anymore”, then guess what? You’re part of the problem, not an innocent caught in the crossfire.
Mods are too ban-happy and users are too hostile. Y'all need to chill the fuck out please, god damn.

When I see staff members, both former and current, talk about how much time they spend moderating the forum and how much of a toll that is or was on them, it does make me wonder if maybe you should have more staff members than you do? Mist mentioned earlier in here that some staff spent their entire day yesterday going through reports, and I feel like if you had more people, then that load could be lightened and perhaps it wouldn't cause you all to spend hours and hours of your day going through reports.

I've been hoping for someone to finally ask how exactly this whole "unsafe" on a semi-anonymous forum thing works but I realize there's no way you can get away with it no matter how carefully you construct it. Especially now that you can be banned for "racism" for attacking one of the most privileged people of our time. It'd just be all "JAQ" and "HOW DARE YOU" responses before the thread got locked.
Seeing it be Dude Abides of all people ask about the "talking over" nonsense was a bit heartwarming though. :mynicca

With all the right wing nuts going on about civil war, I could totally see them recruiting Russia to help overthrow the rest of the US. Its scary shit. They could have a good chunk of the military, police force and another country on their side.
:dead :dead :dead :dead
I also heard that UN Russian troops are patrolling inside the US borders and are preparing for a takeover of america with treasonous president Obama Trump in active collusion!

Modding bigots harshly is fine, but all this stuff happening lately magnifies every single decision. People are incredibly restless. Every single day there seems to be a thread featuring a ban that gets locked because half a dozen people are in disbelief that something has lead to a ban. Of course then the threads get locked because they are derailed. There still seems to be little accountability to us, the regular users, when threads are getting locked after a bunch of people are questioning a ban and getting zero actual reply as to why.

You're the one who's got it backwards, I'm afraid, and judging from American responses in these threads, it seems yours is a common sentiment based on lack of exposure to alternatives.
I live in Norway. Banks are regulated so that they can't force me through the same BS that Americans have to go through.
...
This is why banks have regulations in most civilized countries.
lol at thinking anywhere, especially a Scandinavian country, regulates their banks as much as the United States
also lol at all the people who low key think that the millennia old concept of lending is immoral:
I have nothing but resentment for a system where I'm forced to prove how worthy I am of helping companies fuck me into debt for their corporate gain. I have a great score I think last time I checked, but the whole system is dumb as hell and it relies on people going into debt.
The fact that we are all so eager to walk the line with them and not rioting, says it all.
I hate the entire concept of credit. It has destroyed more lives than helped
never understood why you would dip into capitalism this deep
Counter point: get debt-free and live debt-free. Never touch credit or use credit cards just to have credit so you can make yourself in debt.
Well said. Credit scores are not a measure of integrity or human worth but of how much profit you can generate for the lending companies (this is one of the reasons you get penalized for having your credit pulled too often -- they don't want you shopping around for loans).
What if you have an emergency and not enough cash in your emergency fund to weather it? What if you want to buy a house?
Manual underwriting for both. You can get manual underwriting for loans and mortgages. You just have to be able to provide documentation that you're fiscally stable and sound. Not every underwriter does this, but you can definitely find ones who will.
also, just the weird usual "this doesn't happen in Yurop except for the cases where it does":
I'm glad this is not a thing where I live.
Credit for big purchases (home, car, starting a business).
As an European resident this concept is totally alien to me. You are only supposed to ask for money when buying a car or a house.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/juice-wrld-swallowed-percs-trying-to-hide-them-from-the-feds.158195/page-2
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the pilot who was flying Juice's private plane alerted authorities on the ground that the rapper's entourage had guns on them -- a big no-no in air travel. When they landed, FBI and FAA agents were waiting for Juice and company.
We're told at some point between the plane landing and the feds conducting their search ... Juice was seen swallowing several Percocet pills in what people believed was an attempt to hide them. Our sources say the pills might've contributed to his death in a possible OD.
An autopsy was performed on the rapper Monday, but additional testing, including toxicology, cardiac pathology and neuropathology is still needed before determining an official cause.
BTW, we've also learned that paramedics spent 40 minutes treating Juice, primarily trying to get his heart to beat regularly. They eventually transported him, at 2:55 AM, to the hospital. They arrived at 3:06 AM and doctors at the hospital pronounced him dead
FWIW ... we're told the 3 guns seized were all registered. As we reported, the feds also seized 70 lbs. of weed ... allegedly found in multiple vacuum-sealed bags inside luggage from the private jet.

I'm against the illegalization of transporting unapproved goods, but when you're caught it's never a good idea to rapidly consume any part of the illegal product in an attempt to hide just that part. Especially when you've got 70 pounds of other illegal product.
I'm assuming it was only a handful or "personal" amount of Percocet since he seems to have taken it all. The feds, of all people, would have never given a shit about that amount. That's a local cops tier care.
-
Juice actually screwed all of them. The feds would have seized the pot, given them a fine and maybe misdemeanors (because they don't particularly care about pot anymore) and likely returned the weapons had nobody DIED from it.
They could have had some low totem pole person take the small hit for having a bit of percocet not prescribed for them. Which the feds would have just thrown away. (Or split among themselves for the ride back to town.)

I'd decriminalize possession and usage, I see them as victims. And legalize some more drugs, pretty much all the softer stuff.
As for trafficking the harder stuff, shit is poison, they're basically murdering people and just ruining the lives of people with such potential. Opiates are a pretty big issue around here and elsewhere for example. Corporate pill pushers and traffickers alike, death is too merciful.

https://slate.com/culture/2019/12/richard-jewell-movie-review-clint-eastwood-true-story.html
Richard Jewell Turns a True Story Into a Libertarian Fable
Clint Eastwood’s new movie makes boogeymen of the government and the media.
Jewell was a victim—of the FBI’s sloppy zeal to catch the criminal, of a merciless media spotlight, and, in Eastwood’s retelling, of his own delusions of grandeur. Played by Paul Walter Hauser (who portrayed similar fantasy-prone mouth-breathers in I, Tonya and BlacKkKlansman), the fictional Jewell does himself no favors by, as one character puts it, “looking like the kind of guy who might set off a bomb.” But despite its conventional framing, Richard Jewell feels less like a biopic than an assertion of a worldview—a Reaganite one in which the most dangerous threats to well-meaning, ordinary-ish white guys like Jewell are big government and an unscrupulous media. The film’s smartest character, Jewell’s eventual lawyer Watson Bryant (Sam Rockwell), boasts a decidedly pre-9/11 poster in his office: “I fear government more than I fear terrorism.” When his Russian-accented assistant (Nina Arianda) muses, “Where I come from, when the government says someone’s guilty, that’s how you know they’re innocent,” you know they’re a match made in libertarian heaven. Meanwhile, the fumbling feds are represented by a pompous FBI agent (Jon Hamm, dripping with Don Draper–ish disdain), who’s more than willing to break the law himself to pin the blame on Jewell.
The government gets off relatively easy compared to the fourth estate, the worst of which is distilled into the vampiric newspaperwoman Kathy Scruggs (Olivia Wilde), who nearly makes Jake Gyllenhaal’s monstrous antihero in Nightcrawler look tame.
Richard Jewell doesn’t make this connection, but in another life, its protagonist could’ve been a Kathy Scruggs—someone whose need for drama and attention was actually paired, however tenuously at times, to talent and discipline. Without blaming Jewell himself for the FBI’s focus on him, the film makes law enforcement’s initial concerns about him understandable. In an early scene, he’s fired from a campus security guard job for cracking down on underage drinking with a fanatic’s devotion—and that’s after he’s caught pulling over cars by impersonating a police officer.
It doesn’t help his case that he’s a spottily employed 33-year-old living with his mother (Kathy Bates, excellent in her few scenes) with a vast firearms collection. (It’s Georgia, he shrugs.) Jewell’s eagerness to cooperate with the FBI—he’s in law enforcement too, he can’t help telling them—leaves him vulnerable to the federal agents’ off-book schemes to get him to confess. His grandiosity also makes the epilogue, in which we find out that he fulfilled his lifelong goal of joining a police department, not exactly the happy ending the filmmakers want to sell us.
But if the feds can’t imagine that Jewell doesn’t lead a second life as a domestic terrorist, Eastwood and Ray have apparent difficulty envisioning an inner life for their protagonist. Perhaps that’s why the film plays out as a tidily concocted buddy drama, with Watson teaching Jewell how to be more skeptical toward the men he’s idolized his entire life (especially when they’re after him) and Jewell demonstrating to his grouchy lawyer that you don’t have to settle under a black cloud just because the world is unfair. The filmmakers display hardly any interest in Watson’s efforts to exonerate his client, which the lawyer handily accomplishes with next to no effort.
More diverting is the increasingly desperate forensics the FBI resorts to in order to build a case against Jewell, though it’s not always clear which tactics are simply thorough, now outdated, or flagrantly illegal. But Richard Jewell has so little to say about its time period or how the culture has shifted that it ends up exposing the relative quaintness of its concerns.
This reviewer knows absolutely nothing about the case. The "lawyer ... accomplishes with next to no effort" because Jewell was never even charged and the FBI never stated he was a suspect. (Although it did publicly proclaim he was not a target of investigation and Janet fucking Reno apologized for the leak.) Jewell did however win multiple judgments against media outlets, including the original paper that named him via "leak" as a suspect and claimed he fit an unsourced profile, because they all absent any law enforcement sources dug into his life and showed how it fit the "profile" of other bombers. The media absolutely went after Jewell harder than the government who apparently should not be blamed either even though they went out of their way to apologize for it all? Plus Jewell DID cooperate with the FBI because he DID want to become a police officer, although he adamantly refused to confess. So this review is complaining that the film was too accurate to events? :lol

Would you have liked it if the republican congress has impeached Obama over anything they wanted? Romney would've won, if they'd impeached him in 2010, after they took control?
You wanted her to start impeachment proceedings during Bush's last 2 years, when removing him wouldn't've mattered, and would've led to Dick Cheney being president if the senate had voted to convict, wouldn't've stopped the Iraq war
The ONLY two punishments for a successful impeachment are removal from office and being barred from holding future office. And since Bush was a second-term lame duck president, LOL.
How many iraq lives would've been saved by impeaching Bush?
Well, what's she gonna say now? That GWB should have been impeached?
This is a framing tactic. If she says "we should have impeached Bush," the GoP will say, "well, there was no evidence for that, and there's no evidence against Trump, either, Pelosi is just playing politics."
Everyone knew about the bad intelligence. I’m not being glib but op, everyone knew.
everyone. We had the secretary of defense holding prop uranium.
What would’ve happened is: impeachment unsuccessful, and we still go to war.

I'm constantly seeing topics along the lines of:
"Am I the only one who didn't like..."
"When does [game] get good, I'm about to quit"
"I don't care if I finish this game anymore"
"I don't want to buy [console]"
etc.
And I see posts like:
"Looks good, will wait until it's $10"
"I don't have time for these big games anymore"
My question for these folks is........why....are you.....here?
I thought this was a forum for gaming enthusiasts. I don't know what type of discussion or reaction you're trying to get out of gaming enthusiasts on a gaming enthusiast forum. So........why are you posting that?
Go outside. Go read a book or watch Netflix. Take a break from video games from a while. Trying to garner empathy or have others join in on your lack of passion, on a forum dedicated to said activity seems really.....well, dumb. At best you're venting to a non-receptive audience. At worst you're dampening other people's enjoyment of the medium.
So just keep it to yourself maybe?
You should follow the same advice. Making a thread to complain about people voicing their opinions is never good.

Following up the pisspoor Death Stranding video by phoning this one in.
I'm guessing he just doesn't really like Pokemon in general, but i feel like if that's the case he'd honestly be better off just not making videos about it because this was really fucking bad. I get that youtubers like to post videos about the current big games for the sake of appeasing the almighty algortithms, but this just felt lazy and uninspired as far as his videos go
aside from this one not being one of his actual reviews, my issue is that 90% of the video leans on like, two core jokes, neither of which is particularly funny or inspired. Yes Pokemon is easy. Yes this the games would absolutely be way better if the campaign wasn't so braindead. But it's not really new, not really insightful, and not really handled in a particularly clever manner in this video. Honestly I'll repeat that it feels like a video being made to reach a quota, not one that he really wanted to make. It's not even just that he doesn't like the game, it's that it feels like he's completely indifferent to it and that indifference shines through as a viewer
The animations have been talked about a ton too. Yes, it's funny that some attacks don't line up with their names at all, but I've seen that pointed out by just about every review of the game I've watched.

I have a very minor suggestion I would like to make, but as someone who actually reads the General Guide with some frequency (because I try to cite it when making reports) I think it would be handy to have it updated more frequently when changes in the community occur, and maybe some sort of notes on what was recently added or updated like "patch notes."

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase MLB: The Show for any system, nor will they purchase any of SIE’s games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Sony has alienated an entire market with this move.
Sony, publicly apologize and cancel MLB: The Show for Xbox or you can kiss your business goodbye

That's because you're a simpleton who doesn't understand business. This is basic redneckonomics 101. Rednecks buy consoles for one reason and one reason only, to play MLB games. Right now they have to buy PlayStation brand products. If MLB games are on other platforms they will go to the cheapest one because they're poor and stupid, thus buying Xboxes. This will start a snowball effect that destroys the PlayStation brand.

User Banned (1 Week): Inflammatory Accusation
We gotta b real here mates, no self respecting lib gives a shit about brown people across the globe, no matter how many die due to US influence(regardless of the administration)
This thread is two pages and will soon be at the bottom of the heap along with every other genocide level disaster.
Its just the kind of comfortable mindset these types have, like Ellen for example. Its how she can get away with saying "you can be friends with people you disagree" to a war criminal and still have people lining up to defend it ad nauseum
It's becoming quite clear that Era mods have an anti-leftist bias. This post isn't inflammatory in any way and it's a pretty common leftist thought. Liberals will absolutely excuse the actions Democrats make in regards to foreign policy. We have so many people here who consider Obama to be a good president despite him killing a lot of brown people overseas. That shit just gets ignored or excused. we had a thread that basically said that Obama's only scandal was the tan suit thing, but how his drone strikes killed an American teenager was largely ignored.
This ban should be reversed.
This ban is bullshit
god fucking damn this is why I dont do this shit around here
having to convince "allies" why human life is a thing to care about
this is bad for my health
Helio and other lefties, thanks for trying
I messaged mods earlier for the obama thread but I encourage others to message them regarding this ban. Perhaps they will allow us a thread for a public discussion on these bans because its becoming increasingly clear that if you say something too damming of the democratic party you catch a ban. And if thats the way it is thats the way it is, but it'd be nice to be open about it for others to know.
The extremist left posters on this site are disingenous hypocrites who care more about having a boogeyman to rail against than actually confronting the reality of politics. Complaing about her decade old actions offer zero benefit to people suffering at this very moment. And if they have their way folks will continue to die at the expense of a ridiculous moral crusade.
now watch this unmitigated bullshit go unpunished
Bonus Kirblar:
Silly Sandstar, don't you know only symbolic actions that result in nothing changing are all that actually matter?
So you are mad that Pelosi was smart enough to see through the bullshit on the Iraq war buildup, voted no on the war because of it, and didn't want to impeach a lame duck President. Got it.
Once again we're playing the "Blame the Democrat who had nothing to do with it for the bad shit the GOP did" game. Second time today.
I am very curious how many people were actually old enough to remember 2001-2007 and how this all went down with the toxicity of the national politics at the time.
No, you're talking about Impeachment, a political process for removing a President. People didn't turn on Bush until the war started going bad. The war had public approval at the outset. People didn't turn on the war itself until much later. As Pelosi said, people believed the Republicans! Impeachment is a political process and that "pol" part of it is and was very much the problem.
I'm not going to "fuck off" about people who didn't experience the existential nightmare that was US politics 2002-2005 trying to play backseat driver and pretend that it was possible to derail Bush's slowmoving horror show when it was blatantly obvious how bad an idea it was and yet you had 60% approval nonsense. You want to know why I think the median voter is a fucking moron? That very instructive life experience.
The second thread in which a prominent Dem gets blamed for bad shit the GOP did. First Obama is suddenly responsible for the actions of a GOP state administration, now Pelosi is some magical telepath who could have somehow singelandedly stopped Bush's revenge fantasy from happening when so many others at the time weren't able to.

SweetNicole approved official fun thread: https://www.resetera.com/threads/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-will-gross-more-than-700m-usd-domestic-what-say-you.158265/
Welcome one and all to the thread of fun pain fun. It is that time of year once again. A major movie release is upon us, and there perhaps is none bigger than the ending of the Star Wars Skywalker Saga. There's been a lot of hot talkers about how this movie is doomed to fail and dead on arrival, so it is time to put your money avatar on the line and make your bet.
The Rules
In the spirit of keeping things fun for everyone involved, I'd ask everyone to keep in mind the following:
NO BET SHAMING - This is a bet for fun and for bragging rights. Please don't shame others for their bets or shame them into honoring their bets. It is up to each person whether or not they want to prove themselves worthy of honor.
NO BET LIST - In the interest of keeping things low key, there won't be an official bet list of people for or against this bet. Instead, it'll simply be the honor system, and when the bet loses, if you lost, you should change your avatar to whatever the losing bet is.
FOR FUN - These bets are for fun. This isn't serious business. It is supposed to be a fun way for people to have investment in the Rise of Skywalker box office results and follow along if they want. If you like to talk about the Box Office, you might also like the Box Office community.
THIS ISN'T AN |OT| - If you want to argue or whatever about the movie, there's a great OT here for that. Please try and keep this strictly on box office returns and bets and keep the fighting elsewhere!
SIDE BETS ARE OK - Feel free to make side bets with others about RoS in this thread if you so desire.
The Bet Itself
Bets are locked December 19th. No more bets can be made or unmade at that time.
The bet ($700M USD domestic) is based on United States dollars and will be using the domestic (United States) box office total.
The losing side's avatar will be decided by the community in a poll in this thread. The avatar itself must adhere to ResetEra's rules. The avatar should be worn for a month.
Those who bet for the wrong side and willing put on the avatar of shame will be memorialized in a thread list for good honor and sportsmanship. The winners get the satisfaction of winning.
The bet itself has multiple milestones which must be completed in order for the bet to continue on without ending early. These milestones are based on The Force Awakens (highest domestic box office movie of all time) with help and guidance from kswiston and PhoncipleBone to ensure the bet doesn't last forever.
Milestone 1: If Rise of Skywalker has not grossed more than $650M domestic by February 1st, 2020, the bet will end at that time. (TFA only made another 40M after this.)
Milestone 2: If Rise of Skywalker has not grossed $690M or more domestic by March 1st, 2020, the bet will end at that time. (TFA only made another 10M after this date).
Milestone 3: : If Rise of Skywalker has not grossed $698M or more, the bet will end when the theater count for Rise of Skywalker is below 500 theaters. (TFA only made another 2M from this point).
If at any point in time Rise of Skywalker crosses $700M before the bet is terminated early, the bet will immediately end.
The Historical Breakdown
For context, the best grossing Star Wars movie domestically is the Force Awakens which came in at $936,662,225. The second best grossing Star Wars movie domestically is the Last Jedi which came in at $620,181,382.

User banned (duration pending): Long history of infractions for trolling, hostility to members and staff, mod whining, and fueling wars between communities
It's becoming quite clear that Era mods have an anti-leftist bias. This post isn't inflammatory in any way and it's a pretty common leftist thought. Liberals will absolutely excuse the actions Democrats make in regards to foreign policy.

This ban should be reversed.
OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
The reason for Inuhanyou's ban was because suggesting that literally no liberal and/or Democrat cares about minorities is an inflammatory generalization. The ban was 1 week. A poster with a reciprocal generalization was sent to review. We've received numerous complaints about the toxic and hostile environment in political threads, and so this has been an area of focus recently.
If you have further questions please contact a mod captain for concerns about moderation. Please do not derail the thread.

There is nothing more exciting in cinema than a new Skywalker Saga Star Wars movie. Nothing compares to the anticipation to a new entry in the Skywalker Saga. Still hard accepting it's all over.

S2 User Banned (Duration Pending): Ableism; Prior Infraction for Ableist Language.
lmao at all the 6'3 people being like: "being tall is a curse". Y'all haven't experienced shit. I'm 6'9 and outside of a youth spent dominating at basketball it hasn't really paid off. I literally can't sit in 90% of cars without having my knees like besides the steering wheel looking like I'm driving a clown car. Can't sit straight in trains, airplanes, trams, or any other vehicle. I look ridiculous holding 90% of regular people sized shit, can't play stratocasters in public because the shits look like ukekeleles so I'm always using some huge hollowbody thing that looks like it's normal size for me. And I haven't even talked about buying shoes or clothes but I need to buy 90% of my shit at a specialist store at a significant markup so I'm not constantly running around in something that looks like an exposed belly button tanktop or like my basement has flooded.
You haven't experienced living in a world where everything was designed for the midgets that surround you. Fucking chairs with toothpick legs and seating heights below 50 cm, hospital scanners that literally can't fit your legs, being at or close to the weight limit for most things despite not being overweight, struggling with skateboarding because of a high center of gravity and tiny ass skateboards, every single cooking surface being at or below crotch height so it's easier to fuck my food than cook it. Ergonomic chairs that literally don't have the adjustment range required for you to be able to sit ergonomically, Having to bend down to pass through doors etc... Trust me when I say y'all don't know this pain.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/why-do-people-lie-about-their-height-so-much.158045/page-7#post-27219204
I'm a 5'0" woman.
Actually 4'11". Sucks.
Being a woman makes it socially easier I guess. Everyone thinks I'm a teenager until I speak, and in general my height makes me more inviting and amicable to folks. But regardless it's fairly common for me to be talked down to, made fun of, and even have people push me around or intimidate me just because they can get away with it. Height discrimination has no historical baggage to it, so it's not like I can say anything to people to just make them leave me the fuck alone. If anything being annoyed about it is liable to get me clowned on more. People think you have a Napoleon Complex and say shit like "Man, you need to love yourself more" and all that nonsense.
The worst is general statements of surprise. "Wow, you're so short!" Nah, really?! I couldn't tell for the nearly 30 years I've been living! Thank you for that astute observation!
Now I like the way I look physically regardless. And it actually makes capoeira easier! But there have been many a day where I wouldn't mind having a few more inches simply so as not to garner negative attention from assholes. Because again, it's the one trait to possess that you can't make people back off about it when they start going in on you.

But you knew what you were doing.

Women and girls are trafficked in the 3rd and even 1st world like mad right now, but let's get fired up about a mediocre all women's lead remake. Let it go. There are bigger fish to fry from a progressive POV.
ERA's obsession with wokeness via shitty entertainment products always comes off as a crowd that lacks perspective about the state of the world and gender relations.

The reason for Inuhanyou's ban was because suggesting that literally no liberal and/or Democrat cares about minorities is an inflammatory generalization. The ban was 1 week. A poster with a reciprocal generalization was sent to review. We've received numerous complaints about the toxic and hostile environment in political threads, and so this has been an area of focus recently.
If you have further questions please contact a mod captain for concerns about moderation. Please do not derail the thread.
Please do not express any displeasure with your benevolent overlords. Chocolate rations will be going up. Eurasia is winning the war with Oceania. Silence is power.

There is nothing more exciting in cinema than a new Skywalker Saga Star Wars movie. Nothing compares to the anticipation to a new entry in the Skywalker Saga. Still hard accepting it's all over.

I'm a 5'0" woman.
Actually 4'11". Sucks.
Being a woman makes it socially easier I guess. Everyone thinks I'm a teenager until I speak, and in general my height makes me more inviting and amicable to folks. But regardless it's fairly common for me to be talked down to, made fun of, and even have people push me around or intimidate me just because they can get away with it. Height discrimination has no historical baggage to it, so it's not like I can say anything to people to just make them leave me the fuck alone. If anything being annoyed about it is liable to get me clowned on more. People think you have a Napoleon Complex and say shit like "Man, you need to love yourself more" and all that nonsense.
The worst is general statements of surprise. "Wow, you're so short!" Nah, really?! I couldn't tell for the nearly 30 years I've been living! Thank you for that astute observation!
Now I like the way I look physically regardless. And it actually makes capoeira easier! But there have been many a day where I wouldn't mind having a few more inches simply so as not to garner negative attention from assholes. Because again, it's the one trait to possess that you can't make people back off about it when they start going in on you.

Arranged marriage? Pffft. It's clear that if that woman was free from the imprisoned draconian cultural mores she was born into and was able to choose any man she wanted in a free society, it would be Messofanego. But, to be safe, the 2 parent-chaperoned dates they went on via their familial network are just enough to seal the deal before marriage. Anyway, this work of fiction depicts
females women in such a sexist way. Ban it you cowards.

I’m sorry, because of my insufficient Japanese ability, I can only talk about this topic in such broken Japanese. However, I wanted to say something directly from my heart.
Dangen and Ben Judd are dangerous! Please listen to my warning, please believe me!
If you can’t believe me, of course that would be the case… all of this is vague “this guy is weird” feelings, so I can’t properly prove any of it. This is the result of Ben always making me talk to him by phone.
But, my goal is just this: to my fellow developers, to all women, I just want to warn you! That’s it!
If you can’t trust me, of course that’s the case… but this is the truth. Ethically I can’t say anything else!
“I will be the last victim!” I wrote this with this in mind. Take whatever money you can steal from me! Blacklist me from whatever companies you have control over!
But you can’t silence my voice! I can’t trade future womens’ safety for “money”!!
I am not the only victim. To those victims, I want to give you “courage”. Speak up. Fight! Tell everyone your story!
I dunno, this smells like the kind of drama that maybe I should be not taking seriously at all.

Regarding DE Dev’s use of the word “distinguished mentally-challenged” here — DE Dev has many mental and physical disabilities. He’s autistic and has trouble with context and nuance. Some have pointed out his frequent misspellings are very unprofessional — he has severe dyslexia as well. One of my first tasks on the DE project was proofreader, as DE Dev admitted to me, “my brain’s broke and I cant spel so gud.” I was a volunteer tutor for disabled students at my university and worked with a student with an extremely similar suite of disabilities as DE Dev’s, so I found it easy to work with him since I had familiarity with his various symptoms.

Or proper immigration paperwork.

What's the S stand for in LGBTQAIS ?

I'm not saying that Messofanego DEFINITELY has trapped his wife and her family in a legal status to use them as slave labor, I would never suggest anything like that, even though it is something that could possibly happen. Instead I'm simply pointing out that there is no evidence this is not TRUE and is VERY MUCH HAPPENING as we speak. I don't believe rumors like that but it's strange that this story that I just created is out there and yet there is ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE TO DISPROVE IT despite ample opportunity for it to be shown otherwise. Especially when you examine ALL THE FACTS that I just completely and totally made up yet remain unanswered and which NO ONE HAS DISPROVEN.

Good news! The complaints are no longer about mobile ads!
https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-ad-reporting-thread.60928/post-27243556
I hadn't run into any ads since your response here until a few minutes ago.
I've been redirected multiple times in the past few minutes
I got that ad 3 times in the last 10 minutes. Once while I was posting this message.
The site is currently unusable on Desktop/Chrome. Keep getting redirected to a phony Verizon prize page.
getting Verizon and gift card redirects non-stop on Chrome for Windows.
Sometimes it happens so often I cant even browse the site. I have to close all my tabs to get away from it just for it to happen again.
Cerium thanks for the heads up, didn't know this thread was a thing. Also getting this Verizon giveaway thing on Chrome for WIndows. Screenshot below.
Got the same exact one in Chrome for Windows just now.
I'm getting them on Firefox as well.
Got a redirect five times in a row. The Verizon one.
Yup, getting redirected on desktop now
I literally got a redirect on the ad reporting thread. Do you think its possible to not have ads on this thread specifically so we can at least report them without having to fight our browsers?? Im getting redirects both on chrome for mobile and desktop.
redirect keeps happening on desktop. Chrome browser, Windows 10.
Just get a different ad company already. Finally pushed me over the edge to get an ad blocker after 20 years of the interwebs. I've always felt seeing ads was a fair trade off for free content, but I just couldn't take it anymore.

You know, posting transphobic and homophobic garbage to talk about how gross and toxic it is can traumatize other LGBTQAIS members. Maybe don't carelessly flood a thread full of this shit.
Didn't know 9gag were bigoted. I don't follow them. My wife and other family members follow them on instagram, will inform them about this. I reported the post, hopefully Facebook can take down the post and maybe 9gag itself for bigotry. Thank you for the thread.

So all of this (and more that I'm failing to mention) is why I didn't come to work today and didn't tell anyone. So my phone has been called by nearly everyone at my dealership trying to figure out what's up. Calling, texting, leaving messages (probably emails but I haven't looked).
You went missing for one day and your manager assumed you quit?
Damn. I guess he knows you're working in a bad place.

What if he got hurt, kidnapped or died in an accident? Was there literally no previous message like "Hey Tyler, how you doin'?"

That is one way to enter the alt-right pipeline. Some start with Pewdiepie, Jordan Peterson or any other conservative they are connected with. Others start with Joe Rogan.
Joe Rogan an an alt-right gateway drug.
Joe Rogan is a gateway. He has a smooth and "soothing" voice, combined with just having a chill attitude that makes so many people think he is this all knowing dude and is a genius.
The algorithm is extremely aggressive in its pipeline of right wing rhetoric, watch something like Joe Rogan (who is also a horrible person) and suddenly its also recommending you the complete and utter pieces of shit he has let on the show, and most people are unaware of how bad they are or think they are ok purely because they have been on the podcast before. Watch any one of them and you are down the rabbit hole with Dave Rubin or even more obvious white supremacists.
They all start off watching Rogan then Youtube's algorithm gets to work and starts recommending them people like Rubin, Sherpiro, etc
Joe Rogan is 100 percent the gateway for a lot of people getting sucked into the alt right. I’ve seen it happen countless times, it’s an actual problem.
He’s signal boosting some of the worst segments of our society.
Its amazing, and one of the reasons the guy is so dangerous. Have some 'genius' tell you that Rogan is liberal; listen to his show regularly and get force fed all the white supremacist and right wing talking points you can handle... then walk away thinking "Diversity" is white genocide.
Keep people you know AWAY from that fucking clown. It is every bit a right wing gateway.
My good friend and coworker listens to this guy regularly and refuses to believe he's right wing. Says Joe doesn't take sides and is open to dialogue from everyone. I don't know how to make him realize the truth.
Yep.
Rogan is alt righter.
He uses his platform as an alt right injection point.
It starts on conspiracy spectrums first. (Coast to coast daerk matter)
Then it goes to ahowslike Rogan/info wars.
Them it's fox news/rt
Centrists are just right-wing cowards. "Not taking a side" is a political stance in itself, one that says they have enough privilege to stay out of the conversation without having to fear the repercussions. They're just scared of publicly admitting they're a shitstain.
Joe Rogan is an alright gateway drug, especially in the youtube algorithm
what's the gateway algorithm that got everyone in this thread to have the same truth?
-
Here's some math:
If Joe Rogan has a racist on his show, and only one-tenth of 1% of his 1+million listeners start researching that racist's ideas, that's 1,000 new racists.
If Joe Rogan does NOT have a racist on his show, that's zero new racists.

This is by design. YouTube is full of Gateway Racists that use its algorithm to promote Deep Racism.
Though when you step back and really look at Joe, you realize Gateway Racism is basically outright full-on Racism. It’s not immediately obvious if you just catch a few of his videos with less controversial topics or guests, which is why it’s effective against people that don’t know what they’re getting into.
i'm not familiar who joe rogan is, but is a commom and old tactic is to say something you are not to supress criticism and to get more attention of people you want to convince to what you have to say. The fascists love this tactic its part of the modus operandi, for example they say they are not sexist they love and respect women but thats obviously a lie, they say they love minorities, but they really hate, lies and deception is part of it.
We're rapidly hurtling toward a future where people who get radicalized by podcasts and YouTube are going to carry out crimes against humanity on a weekly basis.

I still don't understand how they think the algorithm is an alt-right machine, I never get anything even approaching something like that or political content at all except for when I've watched it recently and it's recommending the same channel again.

For a community that speaks of projection constantly you would think they would have the self awareness when they are partaking in the same behavior. It is okay to listen to points of view that you disagree with, even if it is offensive or bigoted or directly adversarial to your lifestyle. It doesn’t “lead you down a path” it isn’t “a gateway” it is simply a flawed point of view. People have the ability to reason and critically analyze perspectives they don’t agree with, it isn’t some kind of higher brain activity, it is the essence of being a human. Nearly everyone alive falls within the “able to criticality think” portion of the intelligence bell curve.
Except for racists and the quivering internet pussies who think everyone else is a potential racist and have just happened to have never heard of Joe Rogan. Hence the projection.
-
The algorithm is the algorithm. It's not 'smart'. In fact, that's pretty dumb. If you click on a video, it will feed you videos of the same type, and of the same tags. It won't differentiate that the reason you watched a video on the 'dark web' because you wanted to hear some dank shit dunking on the concept instead of a genuine interest.
I put on a Baby Bus video about a month ago for my niece to watch, and I'm still getting fucking recommendations for it because that's what the algorithm thinks I want to watch. From one video. And I don't want to say un-recommend the video because I don't want to fuck with that part of the algorithm too much since my niece still likes the Baby Bus videos.
-
I don't know exactly how it works but I did speculate a few weeks ago that they watch all these idiots "debunking" alt-right/gamergate/Trump/etc. for half an hour or an hour (which it reads as "you really liked that video you watched all of it you stupid idiot") that they constantly post in threads and the algorithm thinks they want content tagged by the system with that subject, but the system probably doesn't tag it pro or con or whatever.

That's exactly what it is. You can setup an AdSense account right now to make your videos recommended and targeted.
Trump/Alt-Right/Anti-Vax/Flat Earth "debunk" videos or takes will share the same search tags as a given video pro/con.
When you watch H-Bomberguy put on blueface and explain to you why "feminism isn't bad" (esp. with tags like "feminism" "bad" "debunk" "trump" "alt-right") for hours, you're also going to get videos (paid for or not) that will be targeted with the same search terms. It's not exactly as involved as Facebook tracking your potential political affiliation.

YouTube should make you click on a thing before watching any video confirming that you are not easily swayed and will take any claims in a video skeptically.
And then it should FACT CHECK the video as it plays by someone who works for TRENDOLIZER or Snopes or FactCheck.org or The Washington Post.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/why-doesnt-netflix-have-a-free-tier.158465/
It seems like a no-brainer to me. It wouldn't have been feasible in the past but they have so much original content now that I don't understand why they don't have a free tier of service that give you access to the first season of two of all of their shows and maybe some of their movies. People could watch the first season or two of Bojack Horseman, Stranger Things, Big Mouth, etc. but have to sign up for a paid subscription once they exhausted the free content. It also seems like a great way to easily draw attention to older content. If they rotated a handful of movie in and out of the service every month or so a ton of news sites would write articles about it. For example if they made Okja available on the free tier of service a ton of sites would publish articles announcing it, and I'm sure it would be seen by a ton of people who already sub but who never got around to watching it, or realize they wouldn't mind seeing it again, or whatever.
Maybe it's just not worth it because growth has slowed to the point that they assume most people who want to sub already have and retaining current subscribers is far more important than attracting new ones. Maybe it wouldn't be worth the expense if the free service was too popular and didn't end up paying for itself with new subscribers. The former seems a lot more believable to me.
I'm not exactly a business person, maybe there's some obvious thing I'm overlooking.
I didn't say anything about ads. My idea is that there would be a limited selection of Netflix Original content available for free with zero ads.
Maybe at any give time there's the first season of a few shows, a movie or two, and a couple documentary, something like that. They would rotate every month or quarter or so. Netflix would make zero money on people using the free service, but would limit the time they can use the service by only offering a small selection of content. They could also impose a time limit per account, say a couple hour per week. As I outlined earlier, they would hopefully get people to sign up to continue viewing the shows they started, or who wanted more content similar to the movies on offer.
The issue with the free trial is you can only use it once. Let's say I used it two years ago and was unimpressed with the service, or exhausted the content I was interested in. If I want to check Netflix out again I could potentially get another free trial by creating a new account, which may be a hassle, or I can pay for an account. A free version of the service gives people like that a reason to regularly open the app, keep an eye on news regarding the service, etc.
Maybe. But I doubt many people would take advantage of it, and it would be an easy way to getting news outlets to do advertising for them, and be a nice way of occasionally shining a spotlight on their less popular original content. I could easily see news sites publishing articles about the free tier's rotating content and a bunch of people who already sub reading and realizing "Woah, I didn't know Netflix made a Trailer Park Boys movie." or "Wow, I had no idea that comic had a special, I'll check that out."
From what I understand they're the clear winner among streaming services now, but they're going to lose Friends and the Office, the other services will continue to produce new content, play with pricing, etc. Couldn't hurt to generate some good will and try to get some eyes on their lesser-known properties.

It will make me who I am until it kills me in 3 years. I'd personally extend this sort of thing to cancer stuff too, as we can see genetics does play a part. Of course make it purely informational so you KNOW that you'd be having a kid with over 50% risk of autism, or Alzheimer... or schizophrenia.

I’m in no way defending pedophilia but I don’t believe that MJ was one and thehard evidence against him is nonexistent. I feel he was just a troubled man that felt more comfortable with kids because he was basically a kid at heart. He never really got to fully realize his childhood either
User Banned (3 Months): Dismissing Allegations of Sexual Exploitation of Minors over Multiple Posts and Inflammatory Thread Deraillment
Is it official ERA policy that MJ was a pedo and you can't disagree?
As close to official as it gets since the threads revolving around the documentary that aired recently.

A pedophile forum can't be seen disregarding arguments against a pedophile. It's common knowledge. Now if anyone defends era I will make a prison cell in my mind for them and tag them as pedophile sympathizers. Unnnlimited powerrrrrrr (disclaimer: not real power)

BTW, isn't it really fucking funny how criticizing a fucking star wars movie is a bannable offense. Like to be really real I can understand how moderating discussions such as the Israel/Palestine conflict, the holocaust, 9/11, Cops shooting unarmed black men, etc. can be tough to parse through as a moderator due to emotions involved in them with the added difficulty of each of these subjects being rife with often believed conspiracy theories and such. But when ResetEra's equivalent of that is most games and moves you know you have a fucked up user base.
ERA has attached itself to the new trilogy much like Old GAF did with the mediocre Ghostbusters 2016. You can't criticize certain aspects of it without being seen as a suspect. See the Angry Video Game Nerd, who still to this day, is seen as an alt-right enabler because he didn't have an interest in watching a garbage reboot.

Now you mention it, yeah, have seen that, though it feels out of place imo given how its history made more sense on GAF (I'd be curious if the member whose uncle it was is on RE). GIFs like groups of people throwing fits and the one where the guy burns his own car at a gas station are more the ones I'm thinking of. Not exactly high art but along with other little things collectively added some flavor to the board if they weren't run into the ground.

User banned (1 month): sexism over a series of posts
I don't get it, devs work to be inclusive to the point of adding gender to monster aliens that kill people and the best people come up with is "I don't like this design?" I feel like the devs added something didn't have to and no one would have even noticed, but because this model doesn't look like some unfeminine roid monster someone once wrote about it's horrible? I really feel people miss the forest for the trees(they don't like). We are living in an age where female representation in games is getting more and more mainstream but we can't celebrate anything we can only complain when that representation doesn't match what we feel it should look like. Like the representation doesn't count because you don't like boob plates. Sigh. I think the design is cool and I like the fact they made a female murder machine that looks just as capable as the other predators.
Nobody is saying that. What I'm saying is for all the complaints about female characters in games, no one ever says good job or that's creative and inclusive. This is a cool looking character, let's try leading with that.

uh oh, someone disagreed with krejlooc again over something completely innocuous. this time a game wasn't made the way he wanted and people are suggesting maybe not everything has to be for everyone. that means it's meltdown time!
This is such a mind blowingly bad post. Painting what is being done here as some sort of bad boy rebel VR image is just... wow. There is no benefit to what is being described as the problem to users. Nobody likes the feeling of their VR body doing things the user did not intend. Even if it doesn't make you sick, it still doesn't feel good or have any tangible benefit. You're basically saying these really weird, unnatural glitches are a feature, not a bug.
The things you think are being described, that you like, are not mutually exclusive of the "rules." The "rules" are inclusive of the things you think nobody else is doing (but actually are). The "rules" being broken that are being criticized are outright bugs. Bugs that are, best case scenario, only occasionally annoying, and worst case scenario, will make someone extremely sick. These bugs are not necessary for any sort of artificial locomotion method or IK implementation or physics simulation you think you want. You can have all those things without the kind of obviously negative bugs inherent in their design. There is quite literally no upside to what is being described here.
there are plenty of physics driven VR titles already. It's not the physics that are the problem it's this specific implementation of the physics. They are doing things incorrectly, when they can achieve the exact same goals in a different way without making lots of people sick. None of this problem is with the concept, it's entirely their execution. The fault is entirely with their execution, which seems to come from not really paying attention to the last 5 years of iteration and coordination from the wider VR development sphere. These are things other developers have already attempted, got wrong, and discussed how to do right.
These are problems that were widely discussed and sorted out 5 years ago. Developers like me are being "sour fucking heads" because we are trying to impart the lessons we already learned on how to fix this.
It's not being overblown, VR sickness is a very widespread and well discussed issue. It's one of the most constantly harped upon parts of VR design.
Posts like this feel like an extremely poor and misguided attempt at character assassination. What exactly have you contributed to the topic beyond attacking my character, calling me a "sour fucking head?"
It IS designed wrong, the things the game is doing is not their intended effect. Their physics model is not matching the intended tracking of the players. The post you are "agreeing" with is asking why I'm not "finding solutions" when this thread, and tons of threads prior, have been about sharing research. Explaining in detail the faults and why they are faults and specifically how they are being done wrong is not a "teardown." I am speaking from experience, because in my own dev work, I have run into these exact same issues before, years prior, and am sharing the solutions discovered -- not just by me, but by hundreds of other VR developers who freely collaborate on developer forums. Our HL2VR mod work predates consumer positional tracking headsets. I've been doing this, solving these kinds of problems, since before VR headsets were even 6DOF and thus subject to these kinds of problems, through hacked together bespoke hardware.
It very honestly sounds like you don't want to hear any sort of discussion on what the game is doing wrong, simply because you want to like the game. I want to like it too, that is why I am so vocal about the faults. If I didn't want this game to be fixed, I wouldn't be spending my time, writing detailed posts of what is going wrong, why those things going wrong are detrimental to the industry, and how many other developers have tackled and solved those problems. A big, high profile game like this having these kinds of faults hurts the entire industry, it comes back to me as a developer. Their game does a lot of other things well, but they are all pointless if many people cannot play the game without getting sick. All the good design the game actually does gets pushed aside if the game can't be played by a not-insignificant portion of the potential userbase. These kinds of faults give VR a stigma that many developers have been working very hard to shed for years now already. Expecting people not to speak up and point out the faults is lunacy.
*developer sticks hand into fire holding an ear of corn to cook it, advises others to stick their hand into fire*
Me: "Don't stick your hand into fire, I did that before in the past, it will burn you and hurt. That's a bad idea. Here is the proper way to cook corn without burning your hand. You can eat your corn without burning your hand."
Others: "Why are you so critical? At least they are trying something new! I LIKE that they're willing to cook corn, breaking those rules. Fire doesn't bother me at all, so YMMV. It's only day 1, maybe tomorrow sticking your hand into the fire will feel better? Sounds like you just are some sort of corn hater, running a hate campaign against fire. Try offering solutions next time!"
This is the number 1 selling game on Steam right now. Telling people on one of the most active gaming forums the faults with this game, so they understand why they are getting sick, why the game is not reacting correctly to their input, and how those problems are not inherent to the medium, is very important. This is a topic aimed at the consumers who buy the game. I have been diligent in explaining the problem in multiple posts, to explain to potential buyers that solutions already exist.
I am not limited to a single post on twitter. Do not speak for me. I also post on VR developer forums not open to the general public. Trying to relay gamedev information on steam forums is not conducive to good discussion. I am not ignorant of ways to convey this information. This is explicitly a consumer-facing thread.
To clarify for people questioning my posts ITT, I think my frank style of speech -- which is how I actually speak IRL -- throws people off in this (and other) threads. Speaking passionately is not the same as being angry or riled up. Text is often colder and more dry than intended. The same sentence can be interpreted as anger when it's merely an especially effortful attempt at conveying what is in my head. When I talk about things of a technical nature, I often struggle when writing posts to keep things from being too verbose, which results in a lot of curt sounding statements that are actually just attempts at brevity. I often am choosing what information to omit, because I can honestly talk about these issues at length for hours. And when I realize in subsequent posts that I haven't explained myself correctly, it's a race to re-convey that information before the original post and point gets lost as the thread moves along. That's also why I frequently edit old posts, I'm constantly second guessing myself about whether I conveyed things adequately, because I can't be sure what the base level of knowledge for the person I'm speaking to is about the subject at hand.
I don't get how people in this topic keep misunderstanding that this isn't about comfort. What is being criticized is not their decision to build a game intended for quote hardcore players.
What is being criticized is their failure at doing so. As a hardcore sim, their game is broken. They spent a ton of time working on physics, but their physics model is broken. Considering the level of detail in their gun model, their physics model works against it. Their design decisions are literally going against their intended goal. They aren't hitting their mark, and even worse, there is an additional, much more troublesome side effect of their decisions actually making people sick.
There are ways to build "hardcore" games without "comfort" options that don't make people sick like this. It is not "hardcore" to have the game push you around the world in unintended ways. There are clear ways to solve this problem, which have been established for years now.
Notice how games like other popular VR games like Pavlov, which also have no comfort options, don't invite this type of discussion. The problem is that their design decisions are doing fundamentally wrong things that yield sickness. Things that, for example, ruin their gunplay model at the same time. Things that work against their climbing mechanic. Things that inhibit people's ability to use the intended controls. That also have the very bad side effect of being one of the things that happens to make people the very most sick.
VR games need to not make people sick like this. The ways this is making people sick, are not good for any VR game's goals. Including this game. You are pretty much defending the existence of unintended bugs as though they are deliberate design decisions.

How could you possibly not identify that these people aren’t ‘good’? My dad as a child mostly played football, played on his bike and hung around with his friends. Nothing wrong with that. Sounds pretty great to be honest.
I did the same as well, but I also watched a lot of cartoons and films. Star Wars, Transformers, Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. All of these would have a series of heroes and a core central villain. The stories these shows told would also have a morality tale behind them.
When you were partying, I studied the history of transformers. When you were having premarital sex, I mastered the Star Wars lore. While you wasted your days at the gym in pursuit of vanity, I cultivated my morality. And now that the world is on fire and the barbarians are at the gate you have the audacity to come to me for help.

There are ways to build "hardcore" games without "comfort" options that don't make people sick like this. It is not "hardcore" to have the game push you around the world in unintended ways. There are clear ways to solve this problem, which have been established for years now.
Notice how games like other popular VR games like Pavlov, which also have no comfort options, don't invite this type of discussion. The problem is that their design decisions are doing fundamentally wrong things that yield sickness. Things that, for example, ruin their gunplay model at the same time. Things that work against their climbing mechanic. Things that inhibit people's ability to use the intended controls. That also have the very bad side effect of being one of the things that happens to make people the very most sick.
VR games need to not make people sick like this. The ways this is making people sick, are not good for any VR game's goals. Including this game. You are pretty much defending the existence of unintended bugs as though they are deliberate design decisions.

I've had my Index for about a week, only played a bit of Superhot and Trover, and I sunk 3 hours straight into Boneworks last night. My computer isn't that great, so I'm on low settings with about 70% resolution scale. I didn't have any sickness, and I had a great time playing the game.

Any mods care to explain this?

Personally I'm waiting til I feel more comfortable in VR but it does look like a lot of fun. Lone Echo is a "moderate comfort" VR game and that was messing with me a bit/
I don't really see the need to throw a tantrum cause a dev is experimenting in a new field even if they do "break the rules of VR"....but it's making me laugh either way. I'm loving the complete meltdown over "maybe its okay if this game isn't for everyone" :lol

Reading him complain about the developers breaking all the vr 'rules' makes me think of the review of the aliens game that used what is now standard fps controls.
I think a high fov and refresh rate do wonders for motion sickness. I got ill almost immediately when I tried a cheap WMR headset. No issues at all with the index. Even my old gf who can't watch console fps games without feeling sick has no problem using the index for flying around in Google Earth vr or watching 360 videos.

It drives me batty how off the top of their head they can recite the percentage of black people arrested year by year and know of every wrongly convicted person but their knowledge of judicial basics is worse than your average Law and Order viewer. Or a cop will rape 15 women, there will be physical evidence from all the victims and testimony, the police force will refuse to support him and their response is, "he was found guilty but just wait till the appeal!" "I bet the governor pardons him."
And of course if you point out the obvious you are called the dumb one.
They are also the type of horrible people to wonder why Weinstien should even be allowed legal recourse, flip out when Dylan Roof types get lawyers, but when Sean Hannity calls an abortion doctor's lawyer scum they demand blood.

and also claiming that unity physics implementation is the same in all games across the board? sounds like he bought something on the asset store and assumes all devs use that. :lol
so, just to follow you: you must do your research, but then you can't get off the beaten path so just do the stuff that people tried before (btw, they did, in their previous games), then low and behold, they have an incredibly successful game in their hands, and they probably convinced valve with their game to add smooth locomotion to hl alyx, I'd love to fail in the same way
This is some weird "nothing is off limits" libertarian mental masturbation, probably because you're more interested in scoring gotcha points and dunks and smiley faces and trademark symbols than actually conversing.

random semi related story because why not: our high school didn't even have any kind of awards like that except homecoming king and queen, and that was just a formality because nobody cared so like it was based on only tens of votes or some shit, but senior year when they sent out the things I read it for some reason and realized you could easily nominate anyone because of the low threshold and our circle tried to promote nominating this semi-random dude*, he didn't win or even get close it was like 48%-40%-12% on the vote since we didn't want to mess with the part people actually cared about and he didn't want to win, but his nominations swamped everyone by a massive amount (he had like six times the nominations of the person who won the vote, and only like a fourth of the people who nominated him voted for him) so they still admonished the class for "not taking student events seriously" :lol
now look at me and voting :trumps
*okay, now years later I can admit I likely subconsciously picked him because he also liked Twisted Metal 2

I have, in my time from living with parents to living with roommates to living alone to working to doing projects to reading the news and to perusing old GAF/Era have found an indomitable truth. It applies to every case of human relationship dynamics.
Question is, have you find your truth or an irrefutable fact from personal experiences and observations about the nature of power?
If Yes, then could you share it with us and did it psychologically affect you afterwards?
I am curious to know given the varied demographics who peruse and contribute to this board.
Thank you.

Title: If Trump wins in 2020, would you support secession?
Poll:
1. Trump isn't that bad.
2. Fascism needs to be stopped.
Do you think that if Trump steals the election again that the rest of the states should think about seceding? Especially those states that are gerrymandered into supporting Trump despite the voters voting otherwise. I think it could really help them.
The states might not even need to join Canada, Mexico or Cuba, with all of the economy gone the Trump states would probably throw him out in months and beg to be let back in.
Just something I was thinking about and wanted to hear some of your guys thoughts on this plan that I think is a pretty good idea.

What the fuck is this press tour? Are they TRYING to make everyone hate them in advance?
What is this PR run? Not cool
I thought a company as large and powerful as Disney could afford to coach their actors before press tours so they DONT say dumb shit like this...
Everything burns down or at least that’s what it feels like is happening
you can infer that but he didn’t say that and he’s in the middle of navigating the absurd grounds between normal fans and misogynistic weirdo brigades.
This press shit is fucking terrible. Everybody shut the fuck up and just let the movie come out, my god.
Jesus the prerelease tour for this movie is a fucking disaster.
All the shitting on The Last Jedi the cast and JJ Abrams are doing hasn't been helping either.
As someone who loves the sequel trilogy, I'm so fucking sick of this press tour. The last week has turned into the main 3 actors shitting on TLJ, talking excessively about "reuniting the trio" that was never united in the first fucking place, queerbaiting, and leaving fellow castmates and former directors to the wolves.
are the actors secretly trying to tell us episode IX will suck or something?
The press tour for this movie has been disastrous.
Not a great week for stars of Star Wars.
This PR run is probably going to be more entertaining and more wild than anything an actual movie would give us. It’s like everyone is tired and just said screw it.
This is such a disastrous PR run like goddamn.
I'll be blunt: JJ Abrams does not get to bitch about other screenwriters' writing. That asshat has never told a satisfying story in his entire life and he's not about to start now, so he needs to shut the fuck up and go back to directing music videos, because that's clearly where his headspace actually lives.
Well he needs to clarify ASAP because it comes off like him basically throwing her under the bus
Boyega just shot himself in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about actor culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in the gaming industry where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you talk shit about your fellow co-worker in a movie, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the star wars public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to watch TROS nor will they support any of Boyega's future movies. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Boyega has alienated an entire market with this move.
Boyega, publicly apologize and delete your social media accounts or you can kiss your career goodbye.
Yeah, not a good place to use that meme.
Wait, he insulted tran?????
Fuck you finn!! Asshole.
Now I’m glad your character didn’t get much screen time in TLJ. That’s not cool at all. Hope your short lived career crashes and burns.
People send Rian Johnson death threats every day because Luke Skywalker didn't get to go Super Saiyan and cut an AT-ST in half with his lightsaber.
JJ Abrams will be fine. He'll find another IP to ruin after this, I'm sure. I hear they're looking for someone to fundamentally misunderstand the point of Superman again.
Jesus, is this press tour hellbent on killing every last bit of good will?
It's actually about the ethics optics of Disney PR.

I had a question about the verified member program as it doesn’t seem clear at times how it works. I hope this can be considered as part of the policy updates that are being undertaken at the moment.
https://www.resetera.com/threads/verified-member-program.2971/
The original post advised that verified members would have a title like ‘developer at X’ or ‘community manager at Y’ but I’ve noticed there are a number of verified members who either have no tag or one that doesn’t give a good indication of who they work for.
Can I ask what the expectations are for this? I’m aware that at times this has created confusion amongst members as they’ve taken a verified member’s title to indicate that they work for ResetEra rather than work for a specific company or organisation in the video game industry. It would really help avoid this kind of confusion if the format of the tags was more in line with the suggested format from the original announcement.
There is a wider question as to why a member would want to have a verified tag but not disclose who they work for, is there a better way of managing that than what is currently being done?
shhhh

Finn should have been the main character. I will not be surprised if Boyega goes scorched earth after the sequel trilogy concludes and actually starts to get real. The fact that he mentioned Mark Hamill in the other interview about not being that thrilled about the direction of his character feels like they are aware on how shit this was.

I was in highschool and my whole family went to see the movie for some reason. Mom, dad, sister, brother, a rare thing for us all to go at the same time. My sister and I love Tom Hanks so we went to see the movie specifically because it was the new Tom Hanks flick. So I'm sitting in the theater next to my dad, and he's been clearly enjoying the movie.
It's the very last scene, when he and Leonardo DiCaprio are at the table discussing grifting techniques. They're saying their final lines of dialog, and my dad nudges me with his elbow and leans in. "Hey! That's TOM HANKS!!" he says all excited. The credits rolled a few moments after revealing to him that, yes, he was correct as indeed Tom Hanks. My sister and I often joke that my dad is one of the people who would have been fooled by Clark Kent's glasses as a result.
We have fun

I had a phone call with the ad agency today and apparently this is an industry-wide outbreak and the worst they've seen in years. It's definitely not normal, even for this time of the year. They're bringing everything they've got to bear against the problem and we've had some success today. It'll may still be touch and go for a while.
Can confirm, I get the same intrusive ads on porn and warez sites, weirdl enough not on other sites using AdSense like ESPN or mlb.com, guess these sites got lucky.
That's funny, I don't get that type of thing even on porn sites. Why is REEEsetera advertising worse than porn sites' advertising?
Because most (not all) porn sites know you're going to be in incognito mode, so advertising is turned "on"/not blocked. If their sites gave you virtual STD's, nobody would use them.

Time for the evergreen thread on Cancel Culture.
https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-progressive-blowback-against-the-term-“cancel-culture”.158817/ (https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-progressive-blowback-against-the-term-“cancel-culture”.158817/)
OP presents not a bad, if way too lengthy breakdown on their thoughts and viewings on cancel culture. Wonder how some of the responses will be....
I've almost exclusively seen "cancel culture" be used by the far right defending assholes from dealing with the consequences of being homophobic/ transphobic/ racist, etc. It's all a dogwhistle.
Where’s those Ridley and Boyega threads?
:foxx
Can we please stop giving legitimacy to a phrase used by no one other than the alt right and their sympathizers?
Was going to post this, glad someone else did. Cancel Culture does not exist.
tl;dr no moderation leads to cancel culture.
But wait, what’s this?
People falling over themselves to cast negative judgement on another person (celebrity or otherwise) without actually making sure that the person in question is actually in the wrong. People love to feel morally superior, and on the internet there's no risks to doing so. So what if they call someone an asshole and they turn out to be wrong for doing so? They can just duck out of the thread and pretend like nothing happened. It happens, so god damn frequenly on ERA. People just immediately assume the absolute worst about a person in any situation, based off incredibly narrow information, act like they're some moral arbiter, then just conveniently vanish when it turns out their assumptions were wrong.
:obama
-
Hot take:
most people complaining about cancel culture are doing so reactively because people don’t want to change or learn or challenge their old assumptions. Mostwof those people are not evil or hateful they’re just the natural outcome of 20th century traditions and norms - either directly or from their parents and peers.
it’s easy to believe nonsense about it because there will always be extreme overzealous examples of innocent or mild infractions being cause for being canceled.
the changes happening socially in the US are momentous abd seismic and like the civil rights movement some communities and cultures will have to be dragged kicking and screaming into new assumptions and behaviors.
their resistance is compounded by legitimate confusion of terms and rules because people are generally lazy about learning stuff the older they get. So new and evolving terms like latinx, gender identity language and even pinch points like bathrooms are just hard for people to adjust to through habit.
the rest of thatcluster was f venn circles are hateful and resentful individuals but they’re also being encouraged by carpetbagging opportunitists who see an opportunity to ride for free in hate energy- from Trump to Milo and beyond.
optimistically that’s going to be true for a couple of decades and entire stateswill be encouraged to slow walk everything by exploitative politicians and interest groups.
churches can play an important role in those communities and so the politicization and corporatization of prosperity Christianity in the USA will be an outsize drag on progress and ironically acceptance and charity.
but the disgraceful embrace of these fractious changes by bad actors in the right wing is going to make a flashpoint out of basic golden rule common sense.
our kids are going to have to carry the biggest burden for change in this and the climate emergency and if we could switch off those influences and deliberate malfeasance peddlers we could make smooth and easy progress on social issues and “cancelculture “ could move away from bullshit in the right and purity tests on the left.
but to be honest I’d almost rather hear a Nazi complaining about t than another oblivious old comedian.

Okay then, why are people only complaining when it's a white celebrity that says something dumb?
I dunno, fuckhead, maybe theres people complaining about it right in that fucking topic about well known white celebrity john boyega?
Maybe there are era topics about dave chappelle, kevin hart and aziz anzari saying the same fucking thing?
Maybe making the claim its a phrase only used by 'the alt right' to defend wypipo is an outright fucking outrageous lie, and is only done by the exact same kind of piece of shit that revels in the mob mentality as a deflection?

- How you came to purchase Gifs and Fun.
- Why you bought it and how you felt
- What happened with the offer of selling Gaf, how did you feel, why did you say no?
- What happened with being banned from E3, how did you react? (looking back Gaf were the pioneers of snubbing E3)
- What happened with the rift and the shutting of the forum
- How did you come back better than before?
I want to know the business side of the Gaf story and your personal story of how went from, what was perceived on Gaf, as a socially-retired, foot-loose and fancy free globe-trotter with a less-than-stellar approach to some discussions, to a well-rounded, level-headed wise adult.
How did you reflect on your past self, what helped you over-come your short-comings and where do you see yourself in the future?
Yeah, sure you're the owner of this forum so people might see this as a kiss-arse, brown-nosing attempt, but it's not. I like to hear/read stories of how people changed for the better, especially if they went through some relative hardship or adversity. For example, Tony Robbins.

About ~75 of the last 24 hours of posts have been in the thread about Resetera.
Almost 2% of NeoGAF exists to bitch about Resetera lol, probably not as bad as the ratio for TheBore but I mean.. come on lol
There is nothing sadder than spending time on an internet forum bitching about another internet forum.
Wait, scratch that. Sadder would be spending time on an internet forum bitching about how another internet forum spends time posting about a different internet forum.

She blurts out the N word, but is it ablelism to ban her off the platform? I mean, people shouldn't have to deal with hearing the N word over and over - and you know it's a huge source of entertainment for people when she uses that word so capriciously - and it's not funny. Yeah, weird scenario. 2019 problems.
If you have a disability that has you blurting out racial slurs, maybe live video streaming isn't for you.

This is what bugs me. The trans community on Era successfully managed to get on the staff's case. That let them mention that bigotry in general would have harsher punishments, mentioning by name the Asian and black communities on Era.
No mention of the Jewish community at all, and that's because a lot of them actually have left. The people remaining will only condemn antisemitism when it's associated with a target they hate like Trump, but no one cares when antisemitic dog whistles get posted because there's few people left around to even call out the fact they're dog whistles.
Even when apparently every single marginalized group's concerns are being heard, I imagine an "Era has an antisemitism problem" thread would get locked in an instant.

I saw a couple of her streams, before this incident/blow out.
tbh she's endearing, but that condition seems really exhausting to live with, she's got my respect.
Also, people don't "have to" hear her blurt out the N word over and over, just don't follow her stream, if you can't deal with her condition.
FWIW, the cumulative 2 hours or so i watched, she never said a slur like that (though she did say "i'll fuck your dad" and other stuff like that).

Why would you watch her stream, she looks like she is 14 years old.

Yeah. I know an Israeli guy that posts there who is as anti-Israeli as they come and he just replies with dry, straight, facts when the conspiracy theories get posted. But he told me in confidence one that "they aren't slick."

She has a soothing voice and her tics are kind of like a literary ASMR. Also, I've never seen a Tourettes who actually had it full blown like that. They mostly just chirp or suck air in quickly.

We can say people calling for that makes the discourse needlessly vitriolic if we don't have all the facts. Fine. But this level of discourse has existed for far, far longer than the idea of a "cancel culture" and its ability to actually end careers is effectively nil.

She doesn’t mind me being around much. You can love more than one person. I’ve only met his younger kid who’s 12 years older than me she’s cool i guess. I’ll hang out with her sometimes but she stays in her room a lot. His other kid is 15 years my senior and doesn’t live close so i haven’t met him

Alright, y'all. Obviously there's issues with the state of the thread, and comparisons to other threads. I'd like to try talking it out with people, which we can either do here, or via PMs, per preference.
Just to get the stuff a lot of people are talking about out of the way: Most common question seems to be about the bans and the unlock message. Long and short of it is, we feel like the case being made in the OP is fairly convincing re: Cenk's misogyny issues. So if you come into the thread and just post "yeah well I like him", it reads as dismissing all of that. Thus the bans, and the lengths.
The Michelle Obama thread is going to stay locked. The updated lock message goes over why - in short, we feel like that's significantly more complex than we can address right now, due to sitting at the intersection of a lot of sore spots. It's going to be one of the things we're talking about with various communities going forward, trying to figure out how best to handle topics like that.

She blurts out the N word, but is it ablelism to ban her off the platform? I mean, people shouldn't have to deal with hearing the N word over and over - and you know it's a huge source of entertainment for people when she uses that word so capriciously - and it's not funny. Yeah, weird scenario. 2019 problems.
If you have a disability that has you blurting out racial slurs, maybe live video streaming isn't for you.
I watched a bunch of her YouTube videos due to this and my admitted skeptical nature and it's actually pretty great. She almost never really says anything racial, it's mostly random gibberish and "cunts" and some of it is word triggered where she'll repeat a word she sees. (They had to ban banana from her chat for a while.) She has lots of body tics too. She totally laughs it off and is fine with people laughing at the way sentences will come out. She will continue talking as if she didn't just blurt out "fist a biscuit cunt" in a middle of a sentence.
She just doesn't suppress anything when streaming unlike in public, etc. which is what makes it funny but also is apparently relaxing because suppressing is hard there's a video where she tries to do it for longer and longer periods and you can tell she's metaphorically dying like being strapped down with a bad itch.

User Banned (Duration Pending): Supporting bigotry
Really goes to show how much we live in our bubbles. None of my friends of family would dream of voting Tory. The online spaces I patronise are the same. People on here think I'm right-wing ffs. And yet clearly most of the country feels completely differently.
I'm a Conservative voter but I try and read a wide variety of sources for news to avoid this problem. I post and read here, on 4chan, The Telegraph, The Guardian, FT, The Times, and The Independent. I'm sure I'm in the minority on this site and that's fine by me, but engaging and reading a wide range of opinions, often times going out of my "comfort zone" has certainly helped my world view and opened my eyes to issues I may have glossed over before.

User banned (2 months): mod whining, doubling down on previous infraction
Hey everyone.
I don't want to derail the thread but since it's the only place I can speak about it, I want to post about my ban here. Well, not my ban, but its consequences. I was banned for two weeks in the thread about gender and ethnic diversity in games. My opinion was that we should not try to "force" diversity on creators, but especially I wanted to focus on the fact that it is - for better or worse - the fight should be given on the creator's turf. This means finding a way to give voice to creators that represent those people. This will ultimately be more effective than anything. Celeste was a perfect example for me, because it was a creation of transgender people, featuring a beautiful transgender character, and narrating a story about actual trans issues.
I got banned after I engaged with a couple of members who seemed to be overly aggressive towards me. I was attacked for my opinion, while I never even said I was against them - on the contrary. I can understand that minorities need to be protected, but this didn't seem to me like protection, rather than imposition. You either agree with them, or you are imposed to shut up about it.
A member quoted my post some time before or after I got banned. This was his/her post: https://www.resetera.com/threads/why-is-there-so-much-blowback-from-people-when-asking-for-more-gender-ethnic-diversity-in-games.155361/post-26902194.
I wish I could engage with this person because some of the things he/she said I would like to extend on, discuss about and clarify. Heck, I can mostly understand, agree and relate to what is being said, and I would glad to contribute in productive dialogue.
This will never happen, and in fact, it will never happen in another topic about anything that might be deemed sensitive to this forum. And whenever I realise a person who is considered a minority takes a stance, I'm out - I don't want to be part of it, read or converse about it.
I might be nothing and my voice might mean nothing - in this forum or elsewhere - but there will be people that have something to say, and might be silenced or choose not to speak because of this climate. Dialogue should always be the desired outcome in a public forum, otherwise it is not a conversation, but an echo. It doesn't matter if it comes from a minority or a majority, it is still an echo. This makes for a poorer forum, as simple as that.
Thanks and apologies if I offended anyone or derailed the thread.

Since Brexit is pretty much confirmed to be happening at this point, I don't fancy being in England when it all goes south. Plus I'll bet another recession will be on the way over the next few years to really help things along.
Will be looking at emigrating somewhere else. Have to find a place where the political right haven't ruined everything though.
How old are you? If you're young, have a degree and no dependants then go teach English in Asia.
Early 30s. No dependents at the moment. Thats a good idea.

we gonna buy the uk after they leave :jeb
Would you buy an old, used kleenex?

I think my favorite part of reading the meltdowns is I don't know what's typos and what's modern British online slang:
People are going to die and people don't care.
I'm almost hoping for random acts of political violence because there's no other way rich cunts in the political class will pay for the people they murder.
I think the natural response for anybody who isn't literally evil in the UK right now is for them to hope their region [becomes] a part of Scotland.
I just got done making this point in the Bernie thread, but it's applicable here, too. It's going to take a lot more time and a lot more hard losses to convince people to actually vote their best interests, and for the best interests of their fellow people
Honestly I feel like selfishness is at the root of this. Labour come out with all these socially beneficial policies, and the thing is most people just don't care. They're out for number 1.
There is nothing more sneering, down the nose and cretinous than people trying to police how other people feel.
There is no coming back from this. I can't say bunker down with your family and get through the next 5 years.
Shut up you prat. I'll say what I please and act how I see fit. This country is a fucking disgrace.
People are going to suffer.
People are going to die.
You cannot claim ignorance about this. You made a decision, and that decision is going to have unthinkable consequences.
You can fuck right off. 130,000+ people dying for this shit and you have the audacity to come in here like a condescending prick. Go fuck yourself you vile cunt
I thought, after people saw Hillary losing to Trump in 2016, that this kind of thing could never happen in the UK.
Shit is going to continue to get worse before it gets better, if it ever does really get better, that is
Cunts coming in here acting like politics is a game. Get to fuck.
I'll say it again fuck England. And politics isn't a fucking game, people are dying. You don't give a shit because you're comfortable.
white people showed they don't care about bigots
Millions of white people also voted for progressive politics up and down the country.
Not nearly enough, the people voting Tories didn't give a shit about bigotry. It just shows how bad the UK is.
People will die as a result of this ya cunt.
Anybody who finds any aspect of this “hilarious” can go fuck themselves in all honesty.
I’ve got to go to my decidedly right-wing barbers this evening. Wondering how to escape with my dignity and hair in tact.

it's not like when Trump amazingly nearly ran the table on swing states (thanks to a few Facebook ads sent to Hillary supporters), the seat and vote shares are coming in almost perfectly with projections over all of the last month

The population of the UK is getting older and eventually dying off, much as it did during the last nine years of Tory government. A Corbyn government would have reintroduced immortality.

This is the most important part:
The study’s authors estimated that there were nearly 45,000 more deaths in the years 2012 to 2014 than would have been predicted by earlier mortality trends.
They then extrapolated those figures to cover the period 2010 to 2017, which yields the estimated 120,000 “excess deaths.”
We were unable to analyse specific causes of death as outcomes because there were differences in how causes of death in 2001–2010 and 2010 onwards were coded.
And:
During the 1990s and 2000s there was a continuous decline in deaths attributable to an underlying risk factor in the UK. This progress stopped in 2012. If it had been maintained over 130,000 such deaths could have been avoided in the intervening years.
Preventable ill-health is caused by a complex mix of personal behaviours such as diet, smoking and drinking alcohol, as well as the wider social context such as poverty levels, housing and the environment.
Here's proof of the Tory Crime btw:
Per capita medical spending slowed – but still increased – during this time. Government spending was higher under Conservative Theresa May than Labourite Tony Blair in total dollars, inflation-adjusted dollars, and percentage of GDP.

Waking up to despair. Partner is a nurse in the NHS and we can't move away from where we are due to her father's illness. Looking to start a family end of next year. Feel absolutely fucked. Stuck on some small shithole rock full of angry old cunts willing to cut off every appendage they have to avoid seeing someone that isn't white.
Also look forward to a bright future of tory rags emboldened to spew more transphobia from their pages/articles over the coming decade+. Woo the 2020's... more like roll on the 2030's when we might actually start to see some bright clouds again.

Not as big a defeat as expected, but this is fucking awful. We've had years of a Tory Government that has lied, cheated and done some of the most disgusting shit in recent political history. Windrush, Austerity, Attempting to dismantle parts of our democracy. Yet people still wants this fucks running the government.
I've given up. This one. This is the one that breaks me. What is even the point in trying to save this country when most of it has decided to jump off s cliff. I'm not even angry anymore, I'm just so disappointed. What more do the Tories need to do, to fuck the country and its people before they realise how fucking idiotic we're being done. I need to leave, I need to find a job in Canada and get out.

hey guyz what's going on in the safe space
https://www.resetera.com/threads/socialism-ot-the-dawn-of-a-red-era.585/post-27319744
Let’s see what corbyn can do to salvage those motherfuckers from themselves...
Goddammit
The UK is a failed state.
How on fucking Earth!?
Nothing good will ever happen
FUCK ELECTORALISM.
FUCK THIS FUCKING PLANET!!!!!
My only consolation about this century of dread is that the rich who steered us here will be made to suffer and account for it.
It's a fucking travesty Corbyn got Corporate Media'd so effectively.
I hate this fucking country. Full of fucking idiots.
Seriously considering moving.
Well, I had a good cry. I didn't even cry over the Trump election. But it's just getting to me. We cannot get any real left-wingers in power.
We have to figure out a way to mobilize the people besides just the booths.
I cried when Bill Shorten lost lol. Imagine if one good thing, even a slightly good thing, happened.
poor sphagnum, the rest of the forum aren't sending their best
-
lol at people getting banned for admitting to have voted for the
torys British Union of Fascists. :rofl
Can’t wait for elections in Germany and CDU voters to get banned for supporting bigotry. :rofl
-
My dream would be Wales kicking the English retirees out and forming a new union with Scotland and Northern Ireland,
Pretty sure by British tradition this would require some kind of ineffective skirmish in a swamp somewhere.
-
They also banned a guy for saying he voted Liberal Democrat.
-
Little known fact: According to exit polls, single issue Tory voters were mostly concerned with acephobia and enbypobia
-
I sympathize with all UK'ers who didn't want this shit happening.
IMO, maybe everyone in the UK who hates this needs to start a revolution against their government like the citizens of Hong Kong & South Korea did, or move to either Northern Ireland or Scotland. It'll be the only way to send a message that corrupted, right-wing bullshit won't be tolerated.
-

Throwing your vote away on joke parties is a right people died for. :maf

I don't even want to begin to digest this horror right now. Thanks to everybody here, it's been a trip. I'm going to get wasted and do a Ghibli marathon for the next couple of days. Peace.

I'm just numb to this. It's basically tradition by now that I wake up and find out that people somewhere in the world were asked "Should normal people or cartoon villains run your country?" and somehow they had a really hard time with the question.
Why do I even pay attention to politics and world news, it's literally only misery, 100% of the time.
-
So, what I'm coming down on is: If you voted Tory, you are dead to me. You are an un-person. In the abstract, I still want and will still fight for an improvement to your material conditions, but in the concrete fuck you and I will not acknowledge you as human.

I cried myself to sleep last night and now I regret waking up again.

IT‘S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL BORIS AND HIS ACEPHOBIC

I won't pretend to be happy with the election results, but what did these fuckwits think was going to happen if Labour won? All was going to be well and we'd all agree on a simple and happy path forward?
I'm betting most of those whinging drama queens didn't even vote.
I'd type more but a tory has just taken my keyboard, and used it to batter an orphan to death. Now there's goo on some of the keys and it's making me nauseous.
Edit: Also, thanks for curating all this shit Benji, there's no way I could face actually reading a full thread of that pathetic flailing.

Save some laughs for her when she's in troubled times. I know she's your mother, but she needs raw pain in the same way she's cool with giving it to others. That's the only way these Boomers learn, and even then they'll pull some exceptionalist "but why me" boohoo theatrics.
Appalling to see people shoot themselves in the foot when they claim they're shooting away the """""dangerous""""" people.

English isn't my first language, so this "inflammatory commentary" that gets you banned on ree is a bit confusing to me, because it obviously means something other than what i originally thought.

I had a good cry earlier but I'm ready to fight now.
UK ERA, I'm just an American, but I want to help. Solidarity to all UK citizens who wanted no part of this shitshow. Whatever I can do to help, I will. We can't let these fucks win.

I also cried when the conservatives in San Marino won the election.
-
what did these fuckwits think was going to happen if Labour won?
We have enough wealth to have things like free lifetime education and free broadband.
Can’t wait till we have some form of universal income as well instead of the awful pension and benefit system.
Also no more landlords.

I'm a Remainer who voted Labour (though not usually a Labour supporter) so I'm bitterly disappointed about the result, but come the fuck on. No one's getting murdered. We'll weather five years of shit and then vote against them in 2024 when Tories start being Tories.
I'm now hoping that Labour pick a competent, likeable, electable leader, so I can vote for them without holding my nose, but who am I kidding? The party members will decide it's all Tony Blair's fault and they need to go lefter.
I thought, after people saw Hillary losing to Trump in 2016, that this kind of thing could never happen in the UK.
The Brexit vote was before Trump's election :brain
Trump literally brought Nigel Farage on stage and said his election would be "Brexit +++".

I have been feeling bad for the people in the UK, but it's wasted concern. It's a self-inflicted wound they got three years ago and then just keep digging in so hard, it's ridiculous. Honestly, at this point, the Brits probably deserve everything bad that will be happening to the majority of them, and it's hilarious how rich their new PM is gonna get with all the shady deals he will be setting up with the vultures heading in to feast (US, Russia, and China). Godspeed, Scotland, get out whenever you can.

funny story, so at work we did a toy collection for the salvation army, and you'll never guess what happened next, one of the more liberal members of staff (she's bi) went and complained
because of them being anti LGBT when asked if they'd like to do something different, they said no, but you guys should had not done the toy drive and done what I said "clothes for the homeless instead"
So basically, fuck you for doing a nice thing for kids who are in need, but am I fuck going to do something myself for a cause I believe in.
LMAO

okay I figured out part of the "shock" that confused me: earlier in the thread they had hyped themselves up because "turnout was up" with lots of Twitter shots of long lines, and speculation about the number of youths, and also somebody tweeted that if you adjusted one of the polls to have a higher Labour turnout it showed a tie rather than 10 point Tory lead which was good news thanks to the huge turnout, also they spent pages telling all kinds of stories about how packed and excited everyone was for Labour everywhere they went to vote
and now it turns out that turnout was down from the last two elections :lol

Most people still haven‘t figured out that twitter is not an indicator of the real world.
It is the same in marketing, everyone talks about social media engagement and all that jazz and wonders why their stuff didn‘t sell even after they got a million likes on twitter.
-
Also the way twitter works basically you curate your own nation basically and only follow what you want to see, so from that it would appear that the world is working out for you.
I mean you block the baddies that have a different view to you and you only follow, like and Retweet what you and your followers want to see.
So whenever something happens aka a national thing like an election you then have only the facts*
fact that you created within your little safe echo chamber*

What I am pointing out is the religion itself says no, not me and it doesn't matter what I may think but I have to be tolerant and accepting of a culture or religions rights to do what they believe to be right (within reason) and I think the left has a problem with that. Look man I'm not trying to be anyone's judge and I'm damn sure no bigot I'm just trying to listen. I'm a black man and Lord knows I have my own problems in a system designed to oppress and keep me tandem to poverty for generations.
Maybe my example was bad, forgive me it made sense in my head.
OH WAIT, username change...

i think labour scare-mongering so much in the election about the NHS has been an extra disaster as it’s completely failed as an electoral strategy but has succeeded in making a lot of labour voters very scared and anxious
worth pointing out that the tory manifesto really does commit to a lot of extra NHS spending for the future, unlike osborne and hammond, the costs of extra privatisation are stupid but relatively small compared to the billions going in (like under new labour where they spent so much it didn’t matter that pfi was inefficient) and the stuff about trump just means extra pharmaceutical down the line costs not selling off the nhs entirely. by 2024 the nhs will probably be in better state than now.
That’s gonna be a ban I think.

English isn't my first language, so this "inflammatory commentary" that gets you banned on ree is a bit confusing to me, because it obviously means something other than what i originally thought.
Here are some more examples to assist you:
User Banned (2 Weeks): Inflammatory commentary in a sensitive thread
The Conservative Party is not facist.
What is wrong with you people? Read up on real facist parties and movements which you all are seriously downplaying If you really believe that the Tories are facists.
User Banned (1 Month): Inflammatory commentary
I have been feeling bad for the people in the UK, but it's wasted concern. It's a self-inflicted wound they got three years ago and then just keep digging in so hard, it's ridiculous. Honestly, at this point, the Brits probably deserve everything bad that will be happening to the majority of them, and it's hilarious how rich their new PM is gonna get with all the shady deals he will be setting up with the vultures heading in to feast (US, Russia, and China). Godspeed, Scotland, get out whenever you can.

Im not up on the politics of the UK, why do they keep saying people are going to die (130,000 ???) because of this?
I’m not really clued into UK politics either, but supposedly the tories want to privatize the NHS and make it like the American health care system which would lead to poor people not being able to afford to go to the doctor. I cannot imagine even conservative voters in the UK think that’s a good thing so who knows.

why are they all even "shocked into anger/disappointment" about this, the polls have said for the entire year that the Tories would win a landslide, like every single one
it's not like when Trump amazingly nearly ran the table on swing states (thanks to a few Facebook ads sent to Hillary supporters), the seat and vote shares are coming in almost perfectly with projections over all of the last month
look at this chart!

People seem weirdly surprised to hear that Disney has chosen to address having its hard work and hundreds and thousands of dedicated creators casually insulted by a highly respected, highly visible member of the industry to heavy media coverage. How dare they recognize Martin Scorsese and defend themselves from socially and economically impactful comments.
He is not a random internet troll and recognizing him is not a sign of sensitivity. It's common sense.

That ban sucks but I still don't quite get comments like yours; "lack of options" caused you to vote for one ideology over another? Not the ideology itself? Was the Conservative candidate just an awesome candidate (with an ideology that apparently didn't factor in your decision since you were looking to vote elsewhere)? Maybe you are typically more of a centrist?
Well, every online test that I do (and those are scientifically proven of course) says that I'm center left, so I usually vote for a more centrist candidate, and I have a deal with me that I have to choose a candidate every election instead of abstaining. So I choose what I assumed would be the least bad option.

- While it is correct to note that Plinkett is a satirical character, it is not difficult to tell what messages Plinkett videos are trying to sincerely convey. As noted in the OP, some of these messages are problematic and should not be handwaved just because Plinkett is a character.
- It is possible to enjoy something while also recognizing that it has problematic elements. Do not defend those problematic elements just because you enjoy the content.
- Do not attack members simply for consuming or enjoying Red Letter Media content.
- There will not be a blanket ban on Red Letter Media content.

It's a disabled feature that's part of the forum software. There's lots of weird things like that that are part of the software that ResetEra doesn't use because it would be awful, lol.
Imagine disabling likes because you wouldn‘t be able to handle that feature. :goldberg

After the debacle in the UK, it's pretty clear the rise of alt/right quasi fascist to full fascist governments is not really slowing down. There are bright spots (hello Canada and New Zealand), and we are about to get a very big test next November in the 2020 election, but let's just say given the economy and our horrible media, Trump has a better shot of reelection than he ever should. And it's not even purely a western/Christian majority nation issue, look at fascist Modi in India. It's not even just a right wing issue, look at the mix of Communism and authoritarianism that is China (a country that is going full Nazi on its Muslim citizens while the world sits back and does nothing).
Meanwhile, this is all happening with a pretty healthy world economy, we have record unemployment in the US, and certainly some countries aren't doing as well, but it's not like the economic crash that started in 2008 and swept across the globe. So what's going to happen when the world's economy does crash? We all just go literal Nazi? Oh, and this is all without the effects of global warming being as bad as they will be in decades. People in the western world are flipping the hell out about migrants and immigrants, which underlies a lot of right wing fascist movement and Trump/Brexit, so how are they going to react when global warming creates so many refuges, primarily from places like South America and Africa, which will be hit the hardest and first from global warming? I'm going to do my best to help with the 2020 election, so I'm not suggesting we give up by any means, but I'm really concerned for the fate of the human race at this point, more than I have been in my lifetime. Please tell me it's going to be alright...unless you agree.
I imagine RLM sub numbers will go through the roof.

They make videos constantly, just not ones that upset Cheebo and you on such a personal level

How fucking miserable do you have to be to watch their latest video and get mad.

Cheebo must have some alert set for any time someone posts RLM.
Please don't link to videos to openly racist & sexist bullies.
Thanks.

I am not demanding it, I am asking as nicely as a can.
As it is personally offensive and hurtful to link to their videos as they have said extremely harmful and hurtful things about women and minorities.

Maybe cheebo is a robot
All I am asking you is the people in the video you have posted have used sexist and racist slurs and have openly mocked minorities and women so their content is extremely hurtful and I am asking you to please consider that there are more than straight white dudes on this forum so seeing their content posted as if its acceptable is a very hurtful thing.
I am just asking you, please consider what content you link to.We as community don't need to link to racists and sexists to engage in a conversation.
All I am saying is you posted a video that is very hurtful due to the racist and sexist content of its provider and I hope you will reconsider posting harmful content going forward because there are a lot of people here who get personally hurt by their sexist/racist language.
I am very much allowed to say "Hey can you please not post content from racists and sexists? It's personally very offensive.".

honestly, I'm hyped as fuck for the new star wars, because all the leaks suggest its going to be wack as fuck, and crossingeden / surfinn / cheebo meltdowns are going to be fucking glorious
Meltdowns? Fucking Mickey Mouse dressed as Darth Vader could be shown his stretched asshole for 3 hours straight and they'll still call the movie a masterpiece.

Any sane board with mods not terrified of the inmates would’ve told Cheebo to knock it off or they’re going to be taking a vacation from the site.

It will be interesting to see how they will praise TROS if it shits on TLJ after spending the past two years aggressively defending TLJ from the slightest of criticism.

"They are very intelligent but funny"'
"They should be shown at film school."
"They do an hour review of the new Ghostbusters . . . the women [one] . . . it is so educational about why comedy works and what mistakes they made."
Rub that shit in Excel's face ERA!

Ok, so according to what we've learned recently, bans are done by consensus between multiple mods, not just as a knee-jerk reaction to a single mod being butthurt about an election result...so does that mean there are multiple mods who don't understand that banning someone for voting conservative in the UK is just a cunt act and not acceptable?

Also, I think there is point of no return in the ageing process. At a particular age bracket having certain procedures done will probably improve your appearance. Once you get to a certain age though, it seems to have the opposite effect, and you end up looking like a half melted wax work. I guess part of that is because the more you age, the more work you need done.

Iger: "That's a contract you'll sign to hand over all your movie rights to Disney Martin"
Martin: "I would never"
Iger: "We will create a Goodfellas cinematic universe. Amy Schumer will play the lead role as a femme mafioso. Ryan Reynolds will join for the comedic touch. De Niro can stay on as a token cameo, digitized of course..."
Martin: "... NEVER!"
Iger: "That's what George said... when he was offered the same deal. Show him the other document..."
Martin: "NO NOT MY DAUGHTER"
Iger: "That's right, we'll hire her as Executive Vice Director of Star Wars. She'll be strapped to a contract with Disney, forced to pump out schlog every year. You'll watch from retirement how instead of creating new and exciting things she'll work for us until the ticket sales dry up and we fire her. Once you are dead and she is bankrupt we will simply buy her rights to your movies. You're just delaying the inevitable Martin."
Martin: "*sigh*"
Iger: "Now, let us not yet linger on in the past and look towards a bright future. What should we name this new movie? The marketing boys came up with GoodMommas: Origins and GoodFellas: Legacy.
I was thinking to use iGoodFolks myself to make it more inclusive. We will tell CNN it was your idea to stop the backlash against your racist and bigoted comments towards Disney"

Isn’t this what James Gunn basically did yet Era defended him to the death? I guess it’s different when you’re part of the Marvel crown jewel here.
James gunn's thing was an old tweet, this was made in the past week and clearly violated MS's mixer policies
Are you talking about the stuff that James Gunn did nearly a decade ago, had previously apologised for, committed to growing and improving, delivered on the commitment to grow and improve, and then years later experienced a second backlash for?
I think this guy is right to get banned from Mixer etc right now, but if he in the future sees the error of his judgement and makes a commitment to improve, then spends years delivering on that improvement, and someone digs up this old tweet a decade later, I would say that any backlash in 2029 would be unwarranted.
What a terrible comparison. Already reasoned why above. You really couldn't figure that out for yourself?

I already know how this is going to play out.
Marty is gonna rumble on down to the House of Mouse. He’s gonna have rehearsed his argument numerous times in front of his mirror at home a la “You talkin to me?”. As soon as the door opens he’s going to unleash a tirade of vitriol.
BUT
He ends up catching in the corner of his eye another man sitting beside Iger. Marty just stops talking; slack jawed. Iger speaks for the first time.
“That’s right Marty. We aren’t playing around. We’ve brought in the best. MCU is now legitimized. It is going to be grade A cinema.”
Marty is just shocked. He nervously looks around but he knows he’s beat. He scampers away like the filthy boomer he is.
That man beside Iger? Rian fucking Johnson. The best director this world has ever seen. Rian Johnson is taking the MCU to the next level. It will be up for every major category at the oscars.

Sorry, Nintex, you may have been Kurtis Blow but Rakim just showed up.
Martin: "So yeah, I met with Iger and well..."
Perlmutter: "I knew it... that motherfucker, he's taking over everything I should've never sold Marvel"
George: "And I should've never sold Star Wars to that prick..."
Martin: "Gentlemen, it's time.... we have to go to Florida and meet with HIM"
George: "That it has come to this...."
Perlmutter: "I suppose we really have no other option..."
? : "He will see you now, but remember no CNN and no news papers. Also like a Tweet the minute he sends it or he explodes with rage. You have 5 minutes"
Martin: "Thanks, he won't regret it"
? : "You guys made like my favorite movies ever. When Star Wars was still good and you had like all these Mafia guys running around it was incredible.
I had a friend a great friend who said, "wow, they just don't make them like that anymore" and lots of people are saying it frankly..."
George: "So you'll... help us?"
? : "That depends, the Saudi's paid in cash to get rid of their little problem. MEETING WITH SOME GREAT PEOPLE TODAY FANTASTIC THINGS HAPPENINGS just TWEET THAT OUT"
? : "Yes sir. Right away sir"
? : "REMEMBER HAPPENINGS IS SPELLED HAPPENINGS"
? : "certainly sir... certainly..."
Martin: "We'll make a trilogy, TV series, biopic, documentary, everything about your exploits if you help us take out Bob"
Perlmutter: "The merchandising alone will be the biggest thing next Christmas"
? : "You'll have to be all in, no pulling out, all in, all in. the entire way all in. We won't just do Bob, we'll do them all."
George: "We understand.... we..."
? : "THEN IT'S A DEAL FANTASTIC"
? : "I see your meeting went well? I will see you out gentlemen"
Martin: "My god, what have we done..."

Yeah while I think internet message boards are quick to suggest fire and brimstone cutting ties, there are times when you’re in an environment of deep seeded toxicity and the only way to maintain personal well-being is to draw a hard and impermeable boundaries.
I did the same thing 10 years ago; grew up in a very abusive house where I could have easily been protected by outside family members but instead of doing anything I just got prayers. Or was told to forgive.. by my church pastor when I came to him in pieces because I was afraid to go home and terrified for my siblings. So yeah, when I got married I decided that I couldn’t start a family and bring them into that ugliness*. So I just flat out ghosted them all entirely. Wrote my mom a dear John letter of sorts a few months later, she called and didn’t seem to understand. At that point I realized it was hopeless.
It drained me emotionally for a long time after but time really does heal all wounds I guess. :trumps
*didnt help that my father in-law had a rage out at my wedding and my parents had to leave early.

Since i actually understand politics and the shit he's doing and i have this thing called empathy, it's awful to say i haven't been affected. I can see the direct dominoes falling years from now based on the actions happening now. I mean for one, the economy is gonna tank eventually, probably during a dem term. Trump has made minorities scared and that makes me feel awful. Hate groups are on the rise and given free reign because of official policies. Defying and diminishing institutions that used to protect the country has become the norm now. Fake news has spread far and wide and the information bubbles have been polarized so much because of the presidential platform endorsing the wrong ones. I mean the list goes on. Everyone is affected by this. But that's the thing, the people that don't get that are the problem

Dying isn't some beautiful moment of clarity, an actual abuser wanting a last moment of closure before their death can be a selfish, emotional drain.
When you've committed to cutting someone off it's often better to keep it going strong than meander a bit back into bullshit.
sure, but I'm applying a chunk of "OP always makes themself look best" rule to what they said, and the way they led with their family being trump supporters rather than the drug addict part.
Obviously 'no retreat no surrender' era are going to near-unanimously peddle their own misery onto as many others as they can, but the fact OP is even asking about it suggests its not as clear cut as portrayed, and if there is any hope of reconciliation its probably worth taking. People can change.

When you've committed to cutting someone off it's often better to keep it going strong than meander a bit back into bullshit.
Dying is still the end of that person and last chance to do whatever you left to do with that person. I agree is not necessary a moment of clarity or anyone will get closure about anything, but is total not going back moment. The guy implies that at least he had some sort of relationship with the rest of his family, for better or worse he will also face the emotional repercussions from that side.of course, that also could mean the rest of his family are scumbags that don’t care about whatever his grandma did to him. At that point it becomes a potential atomic bomb of regardless.

literally no one say difficulty is bad, they just said accessibility options are good
Exactly and it’s the fighting against accessibility options including other difficulties that’s the issue. Difficulty is a good thing just there should be options.
they should provide more options
You talk as if this is a fact, and an obvious one at that at, which it is not. Even if you, and the people you associate with, did not say this, saying that "literally no one" said this is literally you talking out of your ass.

Difficulty != bad but options = good. I will always applaud a developer for making their games more accessible with additional options, but a developer is also free to fine-tune their difficulty to their creative vision.

Apharmd, a black person, getting banned for that post is bullshit
months ban for ‘racism’ on a black person that is levying criticism of Obama. It may be harsh criticism, but if anyone’s entitled to make it, it’s a black person who has personal stakes in the flint situation.
What’s going on? Because this isn’t even the first questionable ban of the week.
It’s incredibly fucked up because Apharmd was pointing out the racism in Obama’s actions against our people and he gets banned for it.
I could understand a kneejerk ban reaction to Apharmd's post, but after he clarified he was black, I'm not sure what warranted three months. It would be nice to get some transparency on that.
Trying to figure out why Apharmd was banned? Was it just because he said the words black face? Does context not matter
This ban is fucking gross. White liberals love to shout about listening to black people until they have a single bad thing to say about one their favorite politicians.
that 3 month ban is nonsense.
A three month ban is pretty wild given the context
"Racism" being the reason for that ban is actually appropriate, but probably not in the way the mods meant it.
Indeed. He even clarified he had family from there.
If criticisms of certain ppl are off limits the staff need to be upfront about that.

Just finished the first session of Chapter 3 and want to say that they really have nailed the adventure part of this game. The dialogue options, interactions and characters are so interesting to play and see. Being a series fan, i nearly cried when listening to some of the music. I just don't want to put down my controller because the game is so good.
Btw, has anyone experience those heart-shaped bonding event? Unqiue animations, fully voiced interactions last for around 10 mins. I just did mine with Claris and it is fantastic. It has been a long time since a virtual girl can make my heart beat so fast.

When Kamiyama was pushed over by Claris, I was so immersed and literally don't know what should I do and where should I look. My heart was racing and my brain just got offline for 2 to 3 seconds. Hopefully this does not sound too dramatic, but that is some very, very powerful presentations. Animations are top notch and Hayami's voice really stole my heart away.

The pendulum is clearly swinging towards a Trump re-election if Boris' and Brexit are again the rehearsal for November 2020 and no big event (trade boycott, war, economic downturn, impeachment, terrorist attack) happens before that time.
Even Geert Wilders is leading the polls in the Netherlands again and he's not even actively campaigning.
The policies the liberals and left are running on are simply not popular among the general population and no amount of Hollywood endorsements, child activisits or silly dances can change that.

You seem to think that their persistent demands to be treated like a victim and ostentatious martyrdom are because they don't like living how they do, rather than excuse to avoid any reflection or self awareness or make practical change to improve their miserable life

From pointing out her awards on her wiki page...
"You have been banned for the following reason: Please do not reduce sex workers and former sex workers to their past work, as this is objectifying and sexist commentary. Ban extended to 1 month after review. Any future similar infraction will carry a severe penalty.. Your ban will be lifted on Jan 6, 2020 at 12:00 AM. "
It was originally only a week. What the fuck. I expect everyone else to receive at least a month ban as well.
This is what I wrote, which in my view is a positive outlook:
Judging by her Wikipedia entry and the awards she has earned, she seems to be a professional at anal sex, oral sex, orgies, three-ways, and just all around good fuckin. Might as well get a few gaming awards added to that collection!

Saying "reduce to" implies that being a sex-worker is a reduction. The people referencing her work are her FANS. This atmosphere that it is something that she ought to be ashamed of just makes it harder for her to find work. My friend even bought her official shirt because in his mind she's a cinéaste or something because she likes David Lynch films (David Lynch is shit). I think really he just though the shirt looked rad though.

I also never got the hate for TPM after the initial disappointment as it was clearly aimed at a younger audience and they back peddled from that shift.
There's some bad stuff in there for sure (Jar Jar lmao) but it isn't nearly as big as a disaster as Attack of the Clones or The Last Jedi and like The Force Awakens hits most of the 'Star Wars' marks.
TPM is a very ambitious film with faults but a lot of effort went into making it and technology wise they did a ton of things never before seen in films. I remember as a kid the movie was a very big deal and outside
of really vocal hardcore fans people mostly enjoyed it even though it was clearly worse than the previous 3 films.

I used to think that consuming so-called "kids' media" was not a sign of arrested development. Pretty much everyone I know enjoys Mario or an occasional Star Wars flick; it's more childish to care about what people think about you than to enjoy Avatar, I reasoned. In the words of C.S. Lewis, "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."
But then RE opened my eyes to what obsession with kids' media can actually do to you. The most emotionally stunted and toxic people on that site are the most ardent fans of Nintendo and Star Wars.

I think my first whiff of my media-peers being emotionally stunted was when Federation Force was announced. Metroid is one of my favorite single player franchises, and when FF was announced and looked dumb, my reaction was, "huh, not interested."

I truly can't imagine a game announcement producing anger. Disappointment after something has been hyped, sure. But anger? Especially over a video game series that was thought to be dead anyway? Can you imagine getting mad about something like a Crystalis pinball mobile game?
Part of growing up is giving frivolous things like video games the proper weight of importance they deserve: very little.
EDIT: And to be clear, FF wasn't even hyped as a Metroid game. The game itself was known, and then when people found out it had the name Metroid on the box, that's when people had meltdowns. But regardless, that's just the earliest example where I noticed. There have been many, many examples since of RE melting down over the most frivolous things.

I don't personally mind people being disappointed or airing out that disappointment, even if anger is involved. To have emotions is to be human, after all. But most people would realize they're taking it too far at some point and would catch themselves.
So being annoyed or even angry that the first new metroid after a long drought is the opposite of what you look for? Sure, it can be healthy to vent even on things that don't matter as long as you're aware of that fact. Asking for Nintendo's head and for the team behind it to be fired and the game be cancelled immediately? Go see a therapist and get some meds.
nah, at the end of the day: People shitting on things like Metroid 3DS and Diablo mobile, no matter how funny >>>>>>>>> the true crazy manbabies that follow for corporate defence. Those are the ones dryhumping their Rey Skywalker pillow in full Nintendo Labo gear every night in the name of that C.S. Lewis quote. And the closest reason I hate myself for buying the same things.

Along these same lines, "calling for Nintendo's heads" is not the juvenile thing here. I mean, sure, it's juvenile, but not because Nintendo needs protecting. The actual juvenile thing is letting a video game you haven't bought make you that upset, either because it was announced or because people don't like it, whichever side.
Now if you buy a game and waste money and it turns out to be trash, I understand getting mad over that. No one likes to be ripped off.

Along these same lines, "calling for Nintendo's heads" is not the juvenile thing here. I mean, sure, it's juvenile, but not because Nintendo needs protecting. The actual juvenile thing is letting a video game you haven't bought make you that upset, either because it was announced or because people don't like it, whichever side.
Now if you buy a game and waste money and it turns out to be trash, I understand getting mad over that. No one likes to be ripped off.
sure, only resettis are pathetic enough to refuse that videogames are an irrelevant time waster, not the epitome of world politics and fight for freedom they want need them to be. But just because your hobby (especially if it's your biggest) isn't important in the grand scheme of things, doesn't mean you can't be emotional about it and feel bad if the things you like are treated like shit or trying to rip you off.
:trumps
I think you misunderstood me. I was in no way saying "consume product then get excited for other product" with that. It wasn't a call to be optimistic and positive not to question anything or criticize it. Corporations universally suck and are out for your dollar first and foremost. They don't deserve shit from you no matter whether they cater to you or not. All I was saying is by all means be negative if you feel that way, but within reason cause other things are always more important. Don't buy the thing you don't want and be vocal about what you do want. It worked in the case of Metroid and for another example DMC. Just anything beyond making fun of it or just shitting on it and not buying it is fucking dumb.
tbf I can't remember too many cases in which the "negative side" went overboard to the point that it would be a real annoyance. And even the funniest rage brigades, like against Diablo mobile, at least consist of people who haven't made their favorite conglomerate into an infallible divinity. Overblown critique, but at least it's critique :lol Fanboyism on the other hand is the biggest cancer if you want to have conversations about anything online. When I was extremely disappointed with gaming developments, the closest thing pushing me towards actual hate would be the manbabies ganging up on you constantly for not sucking corporate tit enough.

They're right though, from a marketing POV, it would've done better if it had Jumanji in the name.
I never even seen it, and i would've watched it back then, if it was called Jumanji 2 or whatever.

Right, but I never understood the pejorative way people would refer to media as kids' media, because I and everyone I knew consumed it in a healthy way: a fun way to pass some time.
I think my first whiff of my media-peers being emotionally stunted was when Federation Force was announced. Metroid is one of my favorite single player franchises, and when FF was announced and looked dumb, my reaction was, "huh, not interested." Then I went on GAF and there was thread after thread of people having meltdowns over a lame 3DS game.
Now we have RE. :goty2
spoiler (click to show/hide)
:phil
I don't personally mind people being disappointed or airing out that disappointment, even if anger is involved. To have emotions is to be human, after all. But most people would realize they're taking it too far at some point and would catch themselves.
So being annoyed or even angry that the first new metroid after a long drought is the opposite of what you look for? Sure, it can be healthy to vent even on things that don't matter as long as you're aware of that fact. Asking for Nintendo's head and for the team behind it to be fired and the game be cancelled immediately? Go see a therapist and get some meds.

I used to think that consuming so-called "kids' media" was not a sign of arrested development. Pretty much everyone I know enjoys Mario or an occasional Star Wars flick; it's more childish to care about what people think about you than to enjoy Avatar, I reasoned. In the words of C.S. Lewis, "When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."
But then RE opened my eyes to what obsession with kids' media can actually do to you. The most emotionally stunted and toxic people on that site are the most ardent fans of Nintendo and Star Wars.
don't conflate enjoying/consuming so-called "kids media" with ree's absolute worldview-defining obsession.

It wasn't. Expectations for it kept getting cut down from 5 mill to 3 mill to 1 mill to 800k IIRC. And it took years to reach DMC4's numbers which included sales and humble bundles and the like. The "capcom test" was to see if DMC as a franchise in general still had any sales potential, DMC4SE and the HD collection individually dwarfed what DmC DE did. From that point on it was obvious what to move forward with.
According to Dante's voice actor Itsuno apparently went to capcom execs and threatened to quit if they didn't let him make DMC5 and Dragons Dogma 2 among other games, they said he had to choose which one to start first and he went with DMC5. It's why the capcom test happened for it in the first place. He's probably working on Dragon's Dogma 2 now if Reuben Langdon is to be believed.
You're right, I forgot about the revised expectations. But sales expectations != return of interest. I'm wondering the development cost (R&D, coding, artwork/advertising, etc) was for it. Because in movies, a "box office failure" can still return it's investment depending on the cost(s) cutting it did.

Issues of slickness are on a different plane than their fundamental fanboyism, which the forum is designed around (call a company lazy = ban). The former has nothing to do with the actual games. But it's funny to observe the hardcore sluts react to both realities mixing, i.e. when bad optics™ concern the "good guys" Disney, Nintendo, etc. "nah that's different, that's in the past". :lol Bitches like TheMoon clearly in agony when people attack Smash Bros. for having no black Wii Fit trainer or whatever, but he knows he can't be as condescending as usual against the enemies of his god-company, because the ban hammer floats above him.

A free game is still a free game and if Era doesn't like it it's usually an even better reason to grab it, lol.
I mean, people are free to like what they like, but saying "Era doesn't like this game because it's blatantly pro-GamerGate and the developers are extremely transphobic, so I'll probably love it!" is not a great look.

Not that this has anything to do with anything, but wasn’t it hinted at numerous times throughout their content that Jay is actually gay?
The reason I ask is, if that is the case, I wonder how he feels about being perceived in this light?
I dream of the day when we can leave behind all these "content creators" who generate clicks by shitting on other people's work with their "controversial" opinions.
They are aware that a large percentage of their followers are 4chan style alt-right assholes and they are trying their best not to alienate that revenue stream.
So they are also cowards with no standards, kinda like Grace Randolph who was shit before and leaned into the 4chan style bullshit because it got her hits?
If their content is near-indistinguishable from the pop culture sputum of your standard bigoted YT content creators then it’s not really in the court of satire anymore but rather striding right into active reinforcement of gross ideals. They consistently seem to attract scumbags into their audience while repelling marginalized people. At some point if they’re truly a “satirist” channel, it’s on them to put that across and take a stand rather than expecting “we’re satire!!” to be an ironclad defense of the rhetoric they put out which the OP and others have catalogued.
:hmm

Isn’t a lot of western cartoons that Era consume intentionally made to appeal to a 4chan board called /co/? Pretty sure some creators of this stuff have referenced that board.
Isn’t a lot of video games leaks coming from 4chan rather that with journalists or Resetera own forum?
I don’t remember Redlettermedia even give a time of the day to directly reference or being aware of 4chan.

Hey, not sure whether this is the right place to suggest it but what would be the staff's feelings on greater moderation surrounding the use of the term "triggered" when referring to innocuous things?
It seems that there have been more and more people using it for increasingly petty reasons (for instance someone referring to fan complaints as 'pissbabies getting triggered' in a recent SW thread) despite the knowledge that it both fundamentally devalues the actual importance the term has to many people and, on a lesser scale, drives toxicity throughout the forum. However I've noticed that the few times I have reported the usage haven't seen any moderation so I was just wondering how the mods and such felt.

I know you're already banned, but I don't care. The guy peddles racism to children.
Would that be his "Minecraft Disaster Happened" video or his "I MADE a Giant Robot Dog" video?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-view-whoopi-goldberg-tells-meghan-mccain-girl-please-stop-talking-wapo.159727/page-2#post-27472531
As Goldberg tried to change subjects, McCain talked over her, complaining, “Do you want to hear a conservative perspective on this show ever?”
No. Because I'm fucking fed up.
Your obnoxious, annoying, asshole, selfish, victim-playing, hypocritical behavior that seems to be a common trait with modern right-wingers is why. Your defense of a party that stands for fascism, bigotry, hate, war, xenophobia, party over country, sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, fake Christianity, corruption, pedophilla, authoritarianism, autocracy, children in cages, concentration camps, mass shootings, death of the poor, death of the disabled, death of people of color, and so much more is why. Every time I think modern right-wingers can't sink to a new inhumane low, they find a way.
I do not want to hear a fucking thing from assholes who want nothing more than for people, including me, to be dead. I do not want to hear a thing from assholes who blindly defend these atrocities either. That's not "political". I've been stressed out, I've had anxiety like crazy, and I've even had nightmares because I'm scared for my life that this fascist government in power right now is going to make me homeless, sick, and/or worse. None of that is fucking "political" either.
Meanwhile, Meghan McCain, as I and many others barely try to get by in life with our finances, health, families and sanity intact, you're getting pissy because your rich, white privileged, selfish ass isn't the center of attention on a talk show that gave you a spot on their panel of women for no reason and you aren't able to constantly whine, moan, and defend fascists some more. Your dad was treated like shit by Trump, and the party you defend so much just sat there and let him do it. And you still defend that fucking party anyway.
I don't know why they still let you on this show, but I'm not surprised about it either. Because, despite how much assholes like you play the victim card every time someone fed up with your bullshit dares to stand up for themselves and for other human beings, your "conservative perspective" currently has control of 2 branches of government, the Supreme Court, hundreds of smaller judicial seats, a electorial system biased towards you, and other right-wingers in power that will spoil you with money and power of your own and more as long as you're loyal to their fascist Republican party.
I don't want to hear a "conservative perspective". I and many others have heard plenty of it in just the past few years alone. I don't know about how others feel, but I know that I have heard enough. Instead, I will offer you my perspective: fuck off.
:aah

https://www.resetera.com/threads/cant-we-all-finally-agree-that-the-pc-gaming-market-doesnt-threaten-the-console-market.159602/
Wasnt PS4 Pro made to stop players moving to PC? That shows PC is quite literally a significant competition.
Did they ever say that or was that just the sentiment online? I cant imagine the pro made any dent toward that specific goal. I personally think it was to capitalize on the 4k tv buzz at the time while being able to make people repurchase a console or buy in at a higher price in the first place.
https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/281048/Andrew_House_PS4s_main_competitor_isnt_the_Xbox_its_the_PC.php
"I saw some data that really influenced me," he continues. "It suggested that there's a dip mid-console lifecycle where the players who want the very best graphical experience will start to migrate to PC, because that's obviously where it’s to be had."
"We wanted to keep those people within our eco-system by giving them the very best and very highest [performance quality]."
Also i dont believe you have numbers to back up that it hasnt made a dent.
Thats cool never saw he said that, and I mean of course I dont have numbers i was going off what I see which is pc thriving more than ever and the fact we know ps4 pros are about 1 in 5 of the ps4s sold. No need to come off confrontational.

"Folks saying they don't need an X-box because they are PC gamers are a niche segment."

If it was, it failed, because they're porting shit to PC now. (Thank you, Sony, for allowing Kojimbo to continue to port his stuff to PC, much obliged)
I’d say streaming stuff like Stadia (when it actually works) will be more of a threat to consoles then PC.

Ok, 26 posts in your point is made Snoop:
Yes, you do. Good luck building a PC for under 1000$ that has the same specs as the XSX
BurnsLaughing.gif
I mean it's a "yes, but also no" situation: I went from PS3 generation to PS4 with an i5 and ran most shit medium-high for a good 7 years for $1,000. Whereas with the PS3-4 it'd be $600 before the price-drop for 3 + $400 for the 4 (before the pro?), and $300 for the 3 post-drop and $300 for the Pro(? IIRC or it's $400 normally) so it's a wash.
I only spent $600 for upgrading my CPU and motherboard/RAM to get ready for the PS5 (so far, I might spend a bit more for a GPU upgrade for the fact that I want to try RTX, but that meme shit isn't needed). Roughly in the ballpark of a new console. Might be slightly more but there's not need to drop $1,000+ to match consoles generally, especially about 4-6 months after a console launch when console hardware is "static" and easier to match/exceed with drops in the hardware market.
I REALLY hope they release Dreams on PC, because PC is the perfect platform for a game like that, and I fear it might otherwise die on the PS4. Maybe I'm talking out of my ass, but I really feel that Dreams can be the Minecraft of a new generation, as long as Sony has the foresight to release it on the PC.
As much as I would love for Sony to release Dream's on PC (and LittleBigPlanet), I doubt that'll happen. And even if it did, it'd run into the same issue that Project Spark had: It's a niche market (nobody wants to make a game within a game and those that do have to spend a lot of time with awkward controls [LBP/Dreams/MediaMolecule titles generally] or fitting it within the thermo/performance of the game engine [LBP]) and even PC gamers don't want to do a "game within a game" when they can just develop on Gamemaker, Unreal Engine, Unity, RPGMaker, etc. instead.

Isn’t a lot of western cartoons that Era consume intentionally made to appeal to a 4chan board called /co/? Pretty sure some creators of this stuff have referenced that board.
Isn’t a lot of video games leaks coming from 4chan rather that with journalists or Resetera own forum?
I don’t remember Redlettermedia even give a time of the day to directly reference or being aware of 4chan.
Not that I'm aware of. Just that the content these people make appeals to /co/ but isn't from /co/ posters.
Same with RedLetterMedia: It's popular on /tv/ (and /v/, mostly for Jay / vConfirmedForGay) because it's a movie/TV show focused thing, but it's not from /tv/ posters (unless RLM is shitposting Jay and Mike images constantly, in which case: Good show, promote your social media dudes).

That's impressive but I wish Marvel would mix things up with how a superhero is supposed to look and not simply give us Fat Thor for the cheap laughs. We often talk about the objectification of women and the troubles actresses have to go through to "appeal" to the general audience (and that's all true and has to change), but here we have Kumail, a funny and intelligent guy, that stands out for his charisma and humor, that wasn't in extreme shape but wasn't that bad (he was "normal" I would say), that has to go through all this to fit into the role model. I'm not sure I'm onboard with this. And I know he feels proud, worked his ass off and deserves too look this good. But as he says, this transformation is almost impossible for someone living a normal life without the resources he mentioned.
Marvel will never do this. They are still very very much mired in the american standards of beauty and any other body type is, at best, normal and boring and, at worst, to be mocked.

I don't understand why this isn't obvious- They're superhero type characters. They would need to be in olympic-level shape to fight and all that kind of crap.

I guess that's what we can expect from Disney/Lucasfilm now. Such a shame.

I disagree with Taylor Swift about a lot of the things she's done in her life, like lying about Kanye giving her a head's up about those lyrics (and don't even get me started on Kanye...), but if there's just one thing that i've been able to understand about the world by looking at her life, it's that as sure as there is success, there are haters, and you just have to shake them off. It's also reassuring to know that no matter what income level they're both at, white girls will still lie about black men.

I don’t know how YouTube ads relate to the video they are shown during but I was watching the latest RLM video and was shown a 2 minute “ad” about how the left doesn’t disavow extreme elements like Antifa and the Weather Underground. I had never seen an “ad” like this so I thought it was pretty weird .
Was it a Prager U video?
It might have been. Seemed like they wanted me to subscribe to some video essays.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-view-whoopi-goldberg-tells-meghan-mccain-girl-please-stop-talking-wapo.159727/page-2#post-27472531
As Goldberg tried to change subjects, McCain talked over her, complaining, “Do you want to hear a conservative perspective on this show ever?”
No. Because I'm fucking fed up.
Your obnoxious, annoying, asshole, selfish, victim-playing, hypocritical behavior that seems to be a common trait with modern right-wingers is why. Your defense of a party that stands for fascism, bigotry, hate, war, xenophobia, party over country, sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, fake Christianity, corruption, pedophilla, authoritarianism, autocracy, children in cages, concentration camps, mass shootings, death of the poor, death of the disabled, death of people of color, and so much more is why. Every time I think modern right-wingers can't sink to a new inhumane low, they find a way.
I do not want to hear a fucking thing from assholes who want nothing more than for people, including me, to be dead. I do not want to hear a thing from assholes who blindly defend these atrocities either. That's not "political". I've been stressed out, I've had anxiety like crazy, and I've even had nightmares because I'm scared for my life that this fascist government in power right now is going to make me homeless, sick, and/or worse. None of that is fucking "political" either.
Meanwhile, Meghan McCain, as I and many others barely try to get by in life with our finances, health, families and sanity intact, you're getting pissy because your rich, white privileged, selfish ass isn't the center of attention on a talk show that gave you a spot on their panel of women for no reason and you aren't able to constantly whine, moan, and defend fascists some more. Your dad was treated like shit by Trump, and the party you defend so much just sat there and let him do it. And you still defend that fucking party anyway.
I don't know why they still let you on this show, but I'm not surprised about it either. Because, despite how much assholes like you play the victim card every time someone fed up with your bullshit dares to stand up for themselves and for other human beings, your "conservative perspective" currently has control of 2 branches of government, the Supreme Court, hundreds of smaller judicial seats, a electorial system biased towards you, and other right-wingers in power that will spoil you with money and power of your own and more as long as you're loyal to their fascist Republican party.
I don't want to hear a "conservative perspective". I and many others have heard plenty of it in just the past few years alone. I don't know about how others feel, but I know that I have heard enough. Instead, I will offer you my perspective: fuck off.
:aah

Lmao. 2 seconds of queer representation. Typical Disney.
I'll never get this kind of thinking. It automatically assumes anyone who DOESN'T outwardly express their sexuality is straight. and how many seconds of outwardly straight representation is there I wonder (probably more than 2 seconds, but that shouldn't be shocking). Why not just assume anyone who doesn't show preference is queer? Why does everything have to be put on a silver fucking platter for these fuckers.

Let’s be honest some sequels just flat out out don’t deserve to exist and now we are going to talk about franchises and sequels that in our heads at least, never happened.
I’ll open with a big one for me the Alien franchise, it’s one of my favourite film series ever up until the third entry anyway. The theatrical cut of the third was subject to a fuckton of executive meddling which left it a bit of a weird disjointed mess so much so that David Fincher practically disowned it. thankfully the excellent assembly cut ties it all together much better and redeems the film.
After this we get into straight hot garbage, Resurrection is a frankly a shameless fucking cash grab and I hate it intensely, which is a shame as they brought in a damn fine cast, Ron Pearlman and Winona Ryder both carry their parts well and I have always held Brad Dourif in high regard as a damn fine actor. If anything though it’s Sigourney Weaver who steals the show with a far darker, more feral portrayal of Ripley than anything we have seen so far,.
Unfortunately the cast is not enough to redeem what at this point is effectively a bad parody of prior entries in the series. the other characters suffer poorly from lack of characterisation and the different Xenomorph Variants introduce I found to be more laughable than anything else in all honestly.
Moving on from Alien Resurrection, we ger the return of Ridley Scot, like a lot of fans, I was hopeful the series creator would right the ship, but no. I’m largely going to ignore Prometheus here as the Alirn connection is mostly absent in this film right until the very end, this is more the story of the Engineers than anything else.
Now on to the film I hate more than any other instalment in the series, Covenant, for a number of reasons which we will get into right now.
David - this is by far and my biggest issue with this film, the idea that David is the creator of the xenomorphs is one absolutely detest and refuse completely to accept. The only theory concerning his involvement I will entertain is the notion that somehow the Xenomorph species has become dormant or nearly and he resurrected them somehow. An early version of the scripts supports this idea by David show Walter an old fossilised Alien egg and dead face hugger he found in the Engineer home world.
I get what Scott is going for here, the irony of humanity’s own creation in turn creating a species that will be one of the most grave threats to all of humanity, is deeply ironic. It’s also something of a fable regarding society moving away from religion in turn effectively killing God, a point which Scott makes very heavy handed with the character of the Covenant’s science officer Oram who feels ostracised because of his religious beliefs, also believing that his faith has cost him career opportunities as he has believes he has been held back from promotions for this reason.
However in doing so, he has destroyed any intrigue regarding the origins of the xenomoprhas, this is a case where the horror film axiom “less is more” definitely applies, I would posit that is far better to leave their origins a mystery which we can speculated upon rather than trying to explain the origins in this rather hamfisted way.
In closing to date, I have seen Alien Covenant precisely once and I refuse to watch it ever again. David as the creator is pure garbage and a theory I do not give even the slightest hint of credence to. In my headcanon this film and the events in it are not canon. I am not even going to touch on the two Alien Vs Predatir films as I hate both of them intensely.
I feel I gave ranted long enough now, I have other similarly strong feelings regarding other series, namely Terminator, but I will keep that under my hat for now.

tldr; :no1curr
But seriously, you are correct on most points.
- aliens 3 - directors cut is ok, but perhaps not the masterpiece many have proclaimed. all of the failed scripts/re-writes did fincher no favours
- aliens resurrection - swimming aliens, need i say more
- prometheus - jon spaight script seemed like a better link to the aliens franchise, but obviously ridley scott knew better, and believed no-one cared about aliens anymore, and that the xenomorph didn't scare anyone
- covenant - suddenly ridley, in his wisdom,believed the xenomorph was scary, and proceeded to tell us the perfect killing machine was made by an obseleted robot. whatever happened to "paradise lost" script
- avp 1&2 - first one is plain dumb, but fun. second one, who knows, no lighting so i couldn't make out the movie

as that thread goes on they're all saying it's literally antisemitic to mention George Soros' as an example of a billionaire in politics that Republicans hate (in the same sentence Cenk mentions union money too) :lol
Brah we're literally talking about this:
Where he literally says he tells Republicans that he'll get Soros money out of politics
Republicans hate liberals. He says he will get liberal money(Soros') out of politics(together will all the other money) to find common ground with Republicans.
The entire Soros thing is routed in antisemitism.
Literally these people think he funds everything from protesters, to news, to BLM.
He's literally playing into that. You know it. I know it. You're just playing a game here.
wrt the Soros mention. What did Cenk gain from using him as a specific example? He plays into the Republicans' prejudiced views of the man to get their attention. Would his overarching point of money in politics be lesser if he used another example? No. So why exploit the name?
Not going to assert that Cenk is an antisemite, but he clearly evoked that name to appeal to Republican prejudices.
He shouldn't be playing to their conspiracies no.
It's really not hard.
What other bigotry should he appeal to for support?
And as I said before, unless you claim that all Republicans are antisemitic conspiracy theorists, this is a completely legitimate way phrasing an argument for an audience. Republicans hate Soros'. Some because he is a liberal, some because he is a Jew.
Literally they think he controls everything. This is beyond oh he's just some billionaire liberal who has money in politics. They think everything is a product of his money, that he's a puppet master. I think it speaks to Cenk's inability to make a persuasive argument that he has to appeal to bigotry and conspiracy theories to get certain people on board.
I ask again where's the line here. What other bigotry are you cool Cenk playing to for support
More likely, he mentioned Soros to show that he doesn't support billionaires dumping money into elections even if it benefits left wing candidates.
...and the only example he had on hand is the subject of a right-wing antisemitic talking point.
The problem is, what other billionaires are using their money to further leftist policy instead of their personal privilege? Soros is the only example that comes to mind to me easily, and the thing is that most decent leftist policy views billionaires as anathema. Most other billionaires are either explicitly conservative or give to ostensibly left-wing groups specifically in order to promote moderate voices which serve to neuter their effectiveness (see, for example, the Democrats).
Your argument boils down to 'he had no alternative to using a right-wing antisemitic talking point'.
What's the antisemitic talking point? That George Soros is rich and gives money to left wing causes and politicians? That would actually be a statement of fact.
I do not understand your argument. I believe the existence of billionaires is a policy failure. I don't believe, for example, the solution is to mail pipe bombs to Soros's house. I believe he is quite possibly the least bad billionaire, which gives him value as a rhetorical target, and being a billionaire is himself well- insulated from the threats underpinning the antisemitism in any case.
Here's my point: George Soros has been used extensively by the right-wing as a bogeyman, using incredibly antisemitic tropes, referring to him as a rich Jewish 'puppet-master'. When you give the least bit of credence to those attacks to the same people who are using them to begin with, you're only emboldening the antisemitism.
Look at the conversation if it's rearranged thusly:
Republican asshole bigot: fillerGeorge Sorosrellif is a puppet-master who uses his money to control everyone and pays for fake protesters!
Cenk: You're right, George Soros's money is a problem in politics.
If you can't make your points without relying on these antisemitic talking points, you need another point.
Ah I see we’ve reached the Soros part of the discussion.
Worse, we've reached the "it's okay to be anti-semetic, if you can plausibly deny that you are." part of the conversation.
gonna be real with you: "it's ok to be antisemitic to the scary jewish billionaires because they're rich and have all the power" is maybe not a super great perspective to have!
More than likely, since Soros is by far the most famous example of a mega-rich left wing donor.
and why the fuck do you suppose this one jewish guy is such a famous example. why do you suppose right wing personalities are so obsessed with him.
He could've said Bill Gates or any other (ostensible ) Democrat billionaire.
He could have said any other billionaire but he didn't, he said one specific billionaire with a whole lot of anti-semitism, you can't just ignore that because "it could be anyone"
seeing people defend the soros stuff has been incredibly eye opening, because they aren't even trying to be coy about how maybe it was taken out of context or maybe he's changed, just straight up "no it's perfectly reasonable that he does this"

This is gonna be a hot thread.
When Chrystul was 16, she met a 33-year-old man named Randy Volar.
Volar sexually abused Chrystul multiple times.
He filmed it.
She wasn’t the only one — and in February 2018, police arrested Volar on charges including child sexual assault. But then, they released him without bail.
Volar, a white man, remained free for three months, even after police discovered evidence that he was abusing about a dozen underage black girls.
He remained free until Chrystul, then 17, went to his house one night in June and allegedly shot him in the head, twice. She lit his body on fire, police said, and fled in his car.
How was that not self defense
It's unfortunately a tougher case than it should be given her actions after she killed him, particularly the selfie she took after killing him, which muddy the self defense argument.

Lmao. 2 seconds of queer representation. Typical Disney.
I'll never get this kind of thinking. It automatically assumes anyone who DOESN'T outwardly express their sexuality is straight. and how many seconds of outwardly straight representation is there I wonder (probably more than 2 seconds, but that shouldn't be shocking). Why not just assume anyone who doesn't show preference is queer? Why does everything have to be put on a silver fucking platter for these fuckers.
It makes sense in a way: How many queer characters can you think of off the top of your head in the next 5 seconds?
...Yeah, that's why open queer characters need to be there more. You're right in that it "sHoUlDn'T mAtTeR!!!!1!!111oneone!" and that a lot of these characters could be queer without it being openly stated, but the industries have a habit of queerbaiting and then walking it back.
Chandra in Magic: the Gathering is a key latest example of this.

More likely, he mentioned Soros to show that he doesn't support billionaires dumping money into elections even if it benefits left wing candidates.

More than likely, since Soros is by far the most famous example of a mega-rich left wing donor.
What's the antisemitic talking point? That George Soros is rich and gives money to left wing causes and politicians? That would actually be a statement of fact.

I know it must be a sad feeling, seeing a film you've stanned so hard for being tossed aside. But that's life. Stop taking this shit so seriously. Maybe you should go back to stanning Ubisoft games.
But hey, lets be happy, it will make billions for daddy Disney. And we can all shine in that reflected glory.

-
So let me get this straight...
The Last Jedi 'haters' are nothing but a vocal minority who represent a tiny part of the audience for an otherwise massively-successful franchise.
But they're also a large enough part of the audience to fundamentally change the path of a film that's been in development for at least 2 years.
Huh

they're trying to say it's because fans complained and disney listened to them so if the fans hadn't complained then disney would've gone their own route and made a great movie
and/or that JJ himself is a widely known fanboy and was on the same wavelength as the fanboys all along

I found kind of sad that some critics genuinely believe Rise of the Retcon is capitulation to haters when is more about Disney mismanagement of the franchise and The Last Jedi being a mess. Maybe, there is a possibility, that the Last Jedi didn’t do so hot to Disney to follow its plot threads and JJ Abrams is a hack to be able to do anything about it.
-
TFA is Matrix Reloaded, ROS is Matrix Revolutions, TLJ is that Matrix videogame where the Wachowski’s appear on screen and tell you that the ending to movies sucked, and make you fight a giant Mecha Agent Smith instead.
-
It's pretty sad and pathetic that Crossing Eden and the other weirdos are saying that it scored well because this may be the "anti-TLJ"
Other people are saying that the 'fandom' (of which everyone who watches these movies is included) is trash because they said that TFA was "too safe" and that TLJ was "too bold". It's this type of 14 IQ interpretation powerplay that gets people to believe in horseshoe theory.
I love that there are so many routes you can take this
TLJ lovers hate TROS because it's a betrayal of what was set up in TLJ
TLJ haters hate TROS because it's the ultimate wet fart betrayal of everything the whole series was building towards
but TLJ lovers love TROS because how bad it's reviewing is a vindication that TLJ was the greatest thing ever filmed and proves they were right
but TLJ haters also love TROS because it demonstrates disney's fundamental mismanagement and that TLJ put the series in such a bad place that this was the inevitable result

Last Jedi was an actually good movie, not just Star Wars good. Right behind Empire Strikes Back. The fact Rise of Skywalker retcons lots of shit to appease though who didn’t like TLJ (and many critics have said it does retcon lots) is very annoying.
There will be more Disney SW movies but they need to let the mainline movies sit awhile. And get one director for the whole trilogy so it doesn’t end up looking like a fight between two directors and Disney again.
Rian Johnson wins in the end, basically similar to the final scene/shot of Knives Out.

yes. it's all canon. all of it. even mara jade.

They probably did because they didn’t want to have any legal problems with the creators that work on the EU. The smart thing to do would have been doing what comics films do and rewrite story arcs, characters or events to be appealing to mainstream audiences rather than shit on everything and then using it anyway.

. She will resign next year. I think she's alway intended that. I bet she glad to see the back of this shitty fandom.
Yep more than likely. Her contract ends in 2021 after she signed an extension last year. Once she gets within a year of that ending she will probably focus on assisting whoever is chosen to take over for her.
But everyone will read that in the most negative way possible and cheer that she's leaving.
Holy shit, is Kathleen Kennedy their mom or what? Why they can’t admit she did a bad job managing the franchise. Not everybody can be Kevin Feige, but come the fuck now...

But that is the problem, Finn and Poe react like flying Stormtroopers is the hot shit but this stuff has been since the fucking Clone Wars.

Also, Cheebo is nowhere to be seen and saw someone in the ERA leaks thread say Cheebs was going to Hawaii for two weeks. One hell of a coincidence if true :lol
They were probably happy until Solo bombed and toy sales didn’t got better. The fact that The Mandalorian and Fallen Order are going to become better received than this film, fan wise, is probably a sign that the First Order failed.
ding-ding-ding.
TLJ painted the franchise into a corner and didn't introduce anyone or anything kids would want toys of.
Which is why they gave it back to JJ and we've got fucking jetpack stormtroopers that launch from transforming speederbikes, and sith troopers and shit now
fuck, I'm surprised we don't have lightsaber wolverine claws at this point

Ok so the guy was a total asshole and kept shouting something during the movie (at least some of it was spoilers) so he had it coming but it was still weird when the lights came on and we saw a nerdy looking dude come and bash the guy's face on the seat in front of him and then get into some sort of fight there.
I expect nothing less from tonight.

Taking a moment to recognize this THQ Nordic thread on a possible remake of Gothic. In particular, I want to praise the work done by two souls who will not let the ignorant discussion on the remake and issues with the demo continue without important context:
https://www.resetera.com/threads/thq-nordic-releases-gothic-remake-prototype-for-pc-to-gauge-interest-in-full-scale-production-see-threadmark.159088/ (https://www.resetera.com/threads/thq-nordic-releases-gothic-remake-prototype-for-pc-to-gauge-interest-in-full-scale-production-see-threadmark.159088/)
Wow, people forget so fast.....
Diggeh said:
Before you purchase any THQ Nordic games, you should be aware of what you are supporting: THQ Nordic holding an AMA on... 8chan (UP: website linked to multiple mass shootings)
This summary post was written by several users to provide the appropriate context to what occurred so that people can make a well-informed opinion.
Mod statement: "To address a few recurring points: We will not be banning games published by THQ Nordic and subsidiaries like Deep Silver. You are instead welcome to continue raising the issue in threads relevant to the publisher and its games."
If you use Steam and want to ignore all games that THQ Nordic publishes, go to their publisher page while you're logged in, then click on the little gear icon below where it says "Beta" and choose "Ignore this creator."
____________________________________________________________________________________________
These games are being published by THQ Nordic. For those who may not be aware or who may have forgotten, THQ Nordic had a marketing effort where it intended to gain attention using a website that is known primarily for its support of child pornography, as well as for support of Neo-Nazism, doxxing, and other extremely damaging behaviors.
The individuals involved posted under multiple accounts, a few of which being THQN_Phillip (PR marketing director), THQN_Reinhard (Business & Product Development Director/Executive Producer at THQ Nordic), and THQN_Fabian, where they openly responded to posts including homophobia, racial slurs, and content involving underage children. They continued responding to these awful posts with a tone of jocularity, even going so far as to agree with these users.
THQ Nordic has provided no response to this fiasco except for a very shallow apology claiming they did not do enough research. As the website is unlisted by Google, they spoke directly to the board owner about removing "nasty stuff". They had also liked a tweet saying that critics of their choice to have an AMA on that site were "sensitive Simons". They knew exactly what they were doing--this was an intentional choice.
THQ Nordic has not dealt with the individuals responsible, and they did little to refute their actions. Consider that by supporting their games, you are supporting a publisher that openly embraces all the horrible things that website stands for.
Just a reminder that THQ Nordic are proud supporters of neo Nazi's and pedophiles.

. To be honest maybe they should have done that (hired a JJ approved yes man).
Because effectively I think what they kind of ended up with was two Episode VIIs.
Rian Johnson is too talented and too ambitious of a filmmaker to just shove into a middle of a trilogy, he should have gotten a SW movie sure, but it should've been his own where he didn't have to kinda pander to a story that had already started.
I do think all that was ultimately a problem for this trilogy, JJ and Johnson are not really compatible storytellers.
“Rian is so talented, he doesn’t need to do his job or pander to his audience”.

First off, thanks for being the most honest and straightforward with this, it’s in here in different ways, but good on you for just blurting it out.
Second, can we just keep the thirsty stuff out of this topic? Can we not talk about this, at least not here? If you all wanna make your own topic about this, specifically, please consider the rules and do so if allowed. I don’t think it’s appropriate, and I’d rather have this topic banned before it really starts if this is all anyone is going to talk about.
Again, there are other ways to talk about this specifically, and I’d prefer to keep this topic PG, if at all possible.

I've already given them both talks about religion, in both understanding and respecting other people's beliefs. The 9 year old more in depth since she can handle abstract concepts a lot better than the 6 year old.

Imagine forcing your six year old to practice atheism.
The opposite happened when I was that age. My parents made sure I knew Santa was a fraud, so I exposed the truth and upset enough of the other kids that I was quarantined and held until my father could come pick me up.
I picture myself in the principal’s office smoking a cigarette while saying “...and don’t get me started about the tooth fairy.”

The resetra mod who doesnt understand car loans has a reddit account
My dad co-signed on the contract and I don’t want to hurt his credit. I had liability insurance on my old car, but canceled it the DAY BEFORE the accident. I decided I wanted to look for different quotes after progressive gave me a ridiculously high quote.
So I was in the process of getting quotes for insurance.
I know that I have to pay the 23 grand regardless, but I can’t afford another car and additional car payments.
But someone told me that it would be dumb to pay car payments on a car I don’t have even if I’m paying more than it’s worth....so I should just try and get it fixed.
Any advice?
EDIT: Nobody was injured.
my Liability insurance was 90 monthly, THEN without my knowledge progressive changed it to 275 monthly bc I never signed up for their snap shot program. I didn’t want to go with them for the new insurance. I have only been in one wreck. It was a fender bender. Someone rear ended me.
The car was 13,900. The 23 grand is with interest. I was planning on taking 500 a month (and upcoming tax money) to pay on principle over time to refinance and get the interest rate down. So I didn’t buy over my budget at the time.
I’m an early 20’s female. This was my first car purchase with a bank. Paperwork was rushed. Stuff was not explained to me. I didn’t do my homework.
I’m not looking for criticism. I’m aware I’m stupid and that I’m screwed for the next 20 years. I’m only looking for advice.
My dad is aware of all of this.

Theres gold in her history too
We’ve been dating for almost 3 years. Living together for 2. For the past 6 months, he’s been sleeping on the couch. He stays up playing video games and watching tv until he passes out. I sleep in bed. I like to go to bed around 11, but would try and stay up later with him until 1-2, but it was really affecting me the next day. When I started going to bed earlier he would get irritated. I used to asked him every night to come sleep with me. But he would never end up going to bed. I approached him about coming to bed, but he says he just “doesn’t feel welcome in there” or that I don’t “try hard enough to act like I want him to sleep with me”.
...
Last night he complained about it again...and started watching porn immediately after I went to bed. I just don’t understand. It’s not that I’m not attractive. I take care of myself and am fit. Our sex life used to be amazing. And he apparently has an active sex drive.

A researcher who lost her job at a thinktank after tweeting that transgender women cannot change their biological sex has lost a test case because her opinions were deemed to be “absolutist”.
In a keenly anticipated judgment that will stir up fresh debate over transgender issues, Judge James Tayler, an employment judge, ruled that Maya Forstater’s views did “not have the protected characteristic of philosophical belief”.

The lady she's supporting essentially denies that being trans is a real thing, denies that anyone can actually change sexes or be born the wrong sex, etc. And JK Rowling appears to support the belief, not just the court situation.
The lady says you can’t change biological sex which is also what trans folks believe

I think what she's saying is that you can claim whatever gender you like, but your sex is your sex. Given that the judge promised not to use the term 'transexual', and that the distinction between sex and gender has now been seemingly removed entirely, I really don't understand who is supposed to have 'won' here.
From what I can see, basically 'gender > sex'. I personally disagree, or don't really feel there's any basis for a properly fleshed out comparison either way.
-
She's pretty clearly stated that trans women aren't women; and that they shouldn't legally be considered women.
That's what trans folks and their supporters are upset about.
Trans women (gender) aren't women (sex). I think that's what she's getting at.

[quote-https://medium.com/@MForstater/claimants-witness-statement-abe3e8073b41]29. I believe that recognising, and clearly naming, the two sexes is important for several reasons:
(a) For people’s own healthcare, including reproductive health, and for any sexual partners they have, and offspring they produce
(b) To enable clear sex education and informed sexual consent, including the ability of people to articulate a sexual orientation.
(c) For safeguarding children and vulnerable people. Compelling people to lie about a person’s sex makes them confused and vulnerable; telling children that it is possible to change sex is irresponsible.
(d) To ensure that the differences between male and female bodies are accommodated in design and testing of medicines and diagnostics, motor vehicles and other safety equipment;
(e) To collect statistics to inform research and policy making, including to identify needs and disadvantage based on sex, and sexual orientation, and to accurately record sex for example in relation to the perpetrators of crime;
(f) To combat sex discrimination, including clearly identifying when single-sex services, spaces, sports, charities and associations are legitimate, and to be clear about the criteria for who can access them;
(g) In order to identify the needs of the population of people who are transgender or transsexual and protect them from discrimination and harassment.
(h) In order to talk clearly about the risks and results of “transition” (particularly to children and their parents). There is a growing trend for bringing children up as if they were the opposite sex,and putting them on a pathway of puberty blocking drugs, cross-sex hormones and surgical interventions which result in sterilisation and loss of sexual function. The risks and results of this can only be adequately considered if the reality of male and female bodies is recognised.
(i) In particular to take action against the discrimination, violence and oppression that still affect women and girls because they were born female (see section D).[/quote]

It's rather obvious what she's getting at; she said she'll use preferred pronouns out of "politeness" but every other aspect of trans women she considers not to be women. Rather obvious she wouldn't support their right to choose to use women's restrooms, any legal protections afforded to women, etc.
You guys being obtuse on purpose here or what?
I doubt she'd even claim what you guys are claiming she believes; all she said about gender was people have the right to "break free of gender sterotypes".. that actually to me implies she doesn't believe trans women are "women (gender)."

In her statement she doesn't mention whether she thinks trans people ought to use the bathroom they feel most comfortable in, which realistically probably means she's against it.
The sooner these crazy ass TERF ppl wake up to reality the sooner science can find whatever it is that causes people to be born with bodies that don't match their brain, and they can be born with the correct bodies so no-one has to go through gender dysmorphia or sexual reassignment surgery ever again. I've see a few trans people claim that that's "trans erasure" and that any talk of a preemptive treatment is like saying you can "cure" being gay, or that being trans is an identity and not an affliction. I'd bet most of the trans people who feel that way don't suffer from dysmorphia though.

However both the NHS and the American Red Cross now use self-identified gender rather than sex, losing the ability to screen out blood from men who have sex with men in any case where one of those men identifies as a woman.

The resetra mod who doesnt understand car loans has a reddit account
My dad co-signed on the contract and I don’t want to hurt his credit. I had liability insurance on my old car, but canceled it the DAY BEFORE the accident. I decided I wanted to look for different quotes after progressive gave me a ridiculously high quote.
So I was in the process of getting quotes for insurance.
I know that I have to pay the 23 grand regardless, but I can’t afford another car and additional car payments.
But someone told me that it would be dumb to pay car payments on a car I don’t have even if I’m paying more than it’s worth....so I should just try and get it fixed.
Any advice?
EDIT: Nobody was injured.
my Liability insurance was 90 monthly, THEN without my knowledge progressive changed it to 275 monthly bc I never signed up for their snap shot program. I didn’t want to go with them for the new insurance. I have only been in one wreck. It was a fender bender. Someone rear ended me.
The car was 13,900. The 23 grand is with interest. I was planning on taking 500 a month (and upcoming tax money) to pay on principle over time to refinance and get the interest rate down. So I didn’t buy over my budget at the time.
I’m an early 20’s female. This was my first car purchase with a bank. Paperwork was rushed. Stuff was not explained to me. I didn’t do my homework.
I’m not looking for criticism. I’m aware I’m stupid and that I’m screwed for the next 20 years. I’m only looking for advice.
My dad is aware of all of this.

That thread alone would honestly warrant an "Era has an antisemitism problem" thread. Modern blood libel bullshit, deflection, complaints about a community that are indistinguishable from right-wing immigration rhetoric, other standard Jewish conspiracies about money; it's pretty damn overt. That Poodlestrike came in with a staff post, basically exonerating all the disgusting shit posted prior to that, really doesn't live up to the apparent commitment toward the minority communities of Era.
But I guess it doesn't really matter much since most of the Jewish community there is just gone, so any harsh moderation would only protect the fair weather allies that only care about Jews that have progressive beliefs and hate Israel.
It's pretty similar to the Asian community and their exit from the site, though they were more invisible as far as this shit went while there's active malice against Jews there. Sure, there's some representation on the staff, but there was also trans representation and look how that turned out.

Hey ya'll... I live in Jersey City - there have been a lot of problems with the Hasidic community moving in where they did in the last few years. They engaged in a lot of VERY aggressive behaviors, particularly towards the black community that have made that part of the city their home for generations.
If you're from the NY area, you've heard the stories and seen the coverage about how families arrive in a community and start to force people out - through multiple tactics. They have a legacy of not caring about anyone but their own families and community.
ou have a group of people that have moved in, en masse... and they are systematically trying to force people out of that area of the city so they can create an enclave, like they did in Brooklyn and parts of New Jersey. They defund schools, manipulate local welfare systems, and harass and threaten people to sell their homes, and when they refuse, they make your life a living hell with their private police and enforcers. It happens, trust me on this one.
Reads a lot like Yuropeans talking about Romani and Sinti. :shh

I thought gender and sex were different? Are they not anymore? How many years am I behind on this?
Sex is the scientific definition of a person. A trans woman is by biological sex definition still a man
Gender used to be the same but social advocates and trans have managed to change that to being a “social construct” thus trans woman can say their gender is that of a woman even if biologically they are a man. The change in gender to being different completely from biological sex gives trans folks the cover to call themselves what they like even though scientifically and literally they are their born gender . Today a gender gives vulnerable folks the illusion they are the same as a non trans person

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
The purpose of this thread is to discuss the potential capabilities and features of next generation consoles. While rumors can be part of this discussion, it has been increasingly difficult to separate rumors from confirmed fact.
To help clearly separate fact from rumor, please note the following:
1. Official detailed specs have not been released, certainly not enough to conclude which console will be "more powerful" than the other. Claiming as a fact that your favorite console is the strongest will be treated as thread derailment. Rumors should be treated as such until we get official word.
2. As always check your sources before posting any rumors. Do not cite banned sources or information from banned sites. You are responsible for what you post.
3. If you have sources or leaks of your own that you would like to share, please reach out to staff first to verify your information. If you do not verify your information with staff before posting you will be banned.
why would anyone do #3?
how can anyone do #2 when there's no list?

another dual ban, whatever happened to that other guy who was twice-banbed:
User banned (duration pending): defending sexualised imagery of minors over a series of posts
I don't know if you know this but grown women can be skinny. She is not designed to look like a child. That is not a drawing of a child.
User banned (duration pending): defending sexualised imagery of minors over a series of posts
Still not a drawing of a child.
Here's a cut character from CCC meant to be part of the same group as Meltryllis who was meant to look like a child. What a surprise she is very obviously a child.
For crying out loud not every skinny anime girl is meant to be a literal child. Criticize FGO for things it's actually doing instead of imagined things.

clicked onto the last page of that thread :doge
Honestly... I feel crazy because it does not feel like a movie that should have a RT% lower than 75-80%. Then again, I guess that % doesn't actually mean shit.
Exactly. I don't believe oversimplified scores like the tomatometer are worth much at all.
I think people also forget the ratio a film like this gets in reviews. It has 200+ reviews vs like 60+ on Bombshell perse. None of this shit is science.
Had the same thought. After this and The Morning Show, I'm done with bothering with reviews.
So when is the “its like poetry it rhymes” meme going to die. Plinklett and RLM really change the course of how some of the fan base see Star Wars, or film making in general.
What's the score now? The main pages says 59% but the sidebar says 57%. Which is more accurate?
the RT% is literally a % of who thinks it is worth seeing or not, that's why it only has TWO values "fresh" or "rotten" not a score, it's never been a score, how
edit: they once actually checked the reviews so where somebody gives a movie a 3.5/5 but says "wait for it on DVD/streaming" it's listed as "rotten" because the answer to "should you go see it or not?" is "no"
-
Joker actually sealed for me the fact that professional reviews are a hive mind who pile on top of each other trying to get a quote people laugh at or be amazed at. It’s also pretty clear that professional critics have groups where one leads and the others follow and when a critic is mocked for a bad review the others join in giving their opinion drowning out the criticism on twitter creating a 1 bad opinion vs 20 critics illusion
I have found places like letterboxd and verified audience reviews as a more accurate number

RT's original intent was, unlike the old days where you open up the newspaper and there's all the listings and also the local reviewer who says whether he liked shit or not, you go on the internet to check movie listings/times and most people aren't going to bother to read the reviews they just want to know what ones to see. But the two are no longer connected on sites. So they'd give everything a rating based on the reviewers so you can go "I'm thinking about these three, what's the order they liked it" and go see that without much effort and if it sold out you know the next one on your list.
That's why On Cinema At The Cinema is a refreshing and helpful and informative and trustworthy format.

Because we live in an era where people have been convinced that cynical as the default reaction is an insightful personality. Where a notable amount of people make a living by doing nothing other than constantly being negative about media and many people, who are highkey just unhappy with themselves and project that misery onto other things, lap that sort of shit up.

The majority of the population of most European states not named Germany (or France) always support the Presidents of our allies.
Our politicians may not appreciate the billions and billions and billions spend by the US on NATO each year,
but the closer you live to the border of the former Soviet Union or Germany the more you appreciate the Americans for both D-Day and yeeting the commies.
For the Dutch there's also the part of getting along well with the American and the British and being suckers for American pop culture.
Even though our politicians have tried to diminish this over the years, either trying to make us more nationalist (Dutch dubs instead of subs being the norm for cartoons now for example)
or more 'European' with things like a European Content Quota for Streaming Services such as Netflix and Amazon.
We always revert back to the entertainment we import from the US and UK. Likewise, we export our pop culture to the UK/US too with EDM being the most notable example.
It's kinda funny how stuff like a Disney+ beta or Alexa voice control is available here (even when there's not even a real Amazon presence) and only later introduced for Germany, France etc. .
Poland is surprisingly following the same direction as the Dutch. Betrayed by both the Russians and Germans in the past they seek out the US instead.
Having the biggest and most anticipated video game production is something very big for Poland considering only 30 years ago it was a closed communist society.

Goddamn Sweeney is a fucking weirdo. They talked about how their two viewings yesterday were the 38th and 39th time they watched it :kobeyuck
I don't think I've seen my favorite movie 25 times, let alone about to do 40.

PS I find it weird people here seem to think it's odd to see a movie you love a lot of times. I know people who've heard their favorite artist for 400 hours this year on Spotify, why's music different from film? Support what you love
How is watching a 2 hour narrative different to listening to a 3 minute pop song anyway?
checkmate atheists

also:
Support what you love
implies that either:
a) they don't fucking know what 'support' means in this context
b) they keep rerenting the same film, which is :doge

People continuing to romanticize the prequels in that box office thread :lol
"I respect the vision Lucas had" - awful writing, awful directing, wooden as fuck acting because the man can't actually direct his actors if his life depended on it, some truly terrible characters like Jar Jar...there is nothing to respect about prequel era Lucas.
The current trilogy ultimately didn't end on a high note but no thanks to anything Lucas would be doing with the property were he still in control.

I dunno man, I'd rather have watched Lucas' Whills/the Force is an illusion/everyone is an agent of higher powers with no free will nonsense than a bad recreation of the original movies.

ResetEra is legitimately the only place I've seen seriously and vehemently defend FF13, The Star Wars Prequels, DmC, RE6, fucking everybody hates it shit as works of pure and beautiful art so goddamn regularly. Usually it's one or two people on a dedicated subreddit or something. And usually it isn't so strangely passionate about an entertainment product. Goddamn if people hate it, RE will stan it relentlessly.
On resetti you become a mod for shilling for RE6 to the point that you've become a meme (and if your Twitter account has stood the purity test).

Sweeney is a sight to behold, honestly. Everytime they post it's straight up cheerleading disney as a corporation, celebrating them making money while also watching the WWE and bitching about the WWE not being woke and how corporations need to be kept in check cause they're SocDem :neogaf
That's not including the multiple times they're like "sorry guys but this place is too bigoted I have to leave" only to post hours later about wooo disney make it to 10 billion.
I don't think I like what you're implying about a pillar of the community.

Imagine being a corporate shill on a forum, celebrating the success of a company you don't even have stock in. Disney has been a good investment for me actually...but still, fuck these nerds.
How many normal, non childrens movies do they watch a year? It has to be like...1. "Oh I saw Knives Out, Rian Johnson has continued his creative streak after the classic TLJ blah blah blah" lol. Those are the types of movies they'll go see...shit that "supports" people who are involved in their favorite Star Wars or cape shit.

I've been busy at work for the last week. Is the latest meltdown really that two different directors had different visions in the same trilogy and it doesn't match up 100%?

I saw Star Wars because I noticed it was somehow not sold out. On this day of all days!
It was fine. Aside from them going to Coachella. It felt rushed and stupid but I'll take that over watching a slow freighter running away from a slightly less-slow freighter.
I give the movie one star wars out of a star wars movie. 1/1

This was the worst possible outcome. I hated every second that wasn't Poe and Finn (who were clearly written as a couple, but Disney continues to be cowards) having awesome space adventures together.

The funny thing is that the prequels didn't break the OT characters. The reason why Vader was so scary was a precise move by the Emperor to instill fear. Anakin was really powerful, he just had a shitty attitude sometimes. Everyone else really just works without major problems. Sequels, however, goatse'd the OT characters.

I was reading how the movie Star Wars distorts the truth about the universe so I thought I would offer up these truths about space travel & our universe.
One light year is 5.8 trillion miles.
Jupiter is one million time bigger than Earth.
On average on a clear night we can see only 0.000002% of all the stars in the Milky Way.
There are 285 galaxies for every person on Earth.
When the Andromeda galaxy and the Milky Way collide not a single star will hit each other. The Andromeda galaxy is now 2.5 million lightyears away.
The observable universe is 93 billion light years from one side to another. We cannot see beyond this so there is not telling how far it expands.
If a person could travel at one light year per second it would take 3,000 year to cover the distance.
Our trips to the moon took three days. Light makes the same trip in 1.3 seconds.
So how do we discover life on other planets? Certainly not by manned spacecrafts.

Pretty much the thread title. I try to be an ally as best I can. I teach bias training and unconscious bias and microaggressions so that people will be more aware of the impacts of things that they say. I have a significant group of POC in my department that have expressed appreciation for what I try to do, I feel that I've built a level of trust that I can't really describe.
I know that I am not perfect and I don't claim to know everything. I will never be able to understand the level of discrimination and racism that POC deal with on a daily basis and am still largely ignorant to their struggles.
But I was thinking about this recently because I have a good open relationship with some of my coworkers and I have started saying this when we do something really stupid or is just something to shake your head over.
My question is saying Fucking White People when calling out our stupidity ok to say or is it looked at as appropriation? I don't want to offend anyone.
Thoughts?

My only worry is obviously then these scumbag companies have access to all that info, so I don't know the ins and outs.

“IT’S SUCH A WASTE OF ALL OUR TIME”: RONAN FARROW THINKS CANCEL CULTURE SHOULD HAVE LIMITS
Even some of the people who helped cancel the biggest monsters of all—here’s looking at you, Weinstein—believe there should be limits to the movement, as Ronan Farrow explained on this week’s Inside the Hive podcast. “I think cancel culture with respect to words and not actions, is by and large quite silly,” Farrow said. “I think people should totally have space to ask dumb questions. I think there’s plenty of terrible and criminal behavior that is absolutely worthy of cancellation, to use that framework, without us running around canceling all of the people who said the wrong thing and then said, Oh shit, sorry, I didn’t mean to say that.”

But they encouraged children run around naked and play sex games so it's probably a wash for Era.

Also, why the upsetetti over Huxley? Brave New World actually a utopia as far as they're concerned or something?
Eugenics in it, I'd wager. After all the "savages" are not part of the "perfect society"/utopia which basically had gene-breeding-selection to try to get diseases/etc. out of the pool.

Same.

Goddamn Sweeney is a fucking weirdo. They talked about how their two viewings yesterday were the 38th and 39th time they watched it :kobeyuck
I don't think I've seen my favorite movie 25 times, let alone about to do 40.
Just arrested development much like the rest of that board. Plenty of 4-7 year olds watch the same movie over and over again, and that's where they are mentally.
Um, it's a little thing called RESEARCH, they are gathering facts to blow bigots like you out of the water when you try to make marginalized people feel unsafe by posting regressive views about what art is.

Delphine (a moderator) being a little asshole because she has to explain that the interview screenshot she posted is fake
(https://i.imgur.com/paDohAN.jpg)
I'M FUCKING HOWLING!
EDIT: Since people keep quoting this post without looking for context, and since having to explain jokes is always fun: this is a direct quote from that Hard Drive parody article about JK Rowling being a transphobic trash posted above. It is not an actual interview of JK Rowling, it is the Hard Drive making a joke at her expanse, because she is quite infamous for adding unnecessary backstory to her Harry Potter characters years after the entire saga was done and over, just to make it look more progressive and inclusive. Anyway, now it's all explained, please laugh along with me, because that article was really delivering, Hard Drive slapped hard as hell, they clearly shouted "TRANS RIGHTS!" and I love them for it.
Didn't think I'd have to make that edit because apparently people don't pay enough attention to what I was answering to in my post, but in any case, I added an edit explaining the joke (always a fun thing to have to explain jokes, gotta love that)! Let's hope it'll make things clear enough.
Try to do it without the passive aggressiveness next time.
Thank you for your feedback, your opinion about my tone and your desire to police it have been duly noted, have a nice day.

My biggest issue is the “dungeons” feel like someone mashed copy paste for a few minutes using a handful of art assets and called it a day. FFX did a much better job crafting environments that felt like actual places despite being just as linear.

Repost from the OT thread to at least bring a little bit of positivity to world. Lord knows I am prone to fall into overt negativity lately.

Saw the movie this morning.
As far as analyzing a film within the backdrop of all others films created since the invention of the motion picture, all the critiques are correct. The plot, full of holes. The pacing, incredibly too schizophrenic. Carrie Fisher, much too forced. The fan-service, in your face.
But for someone who has grown up with Star Wars since the beginning, this is not just "a film". For someone who has consumed virtually every piece of EU material since Splinter in the Mind's Eye, this is not just "a film". For someone whose very way of life -- the hobbies they chose, their approach to popular media, the lens through which they view the world, their notion of good versus evil -- has been influenced by Star Wars to a greater degree than any other artistic creation, this is not just "a film".
The Rise of Skywalker is an incredibly flawed movie, perhaps even objectively mediocre, but having waited 40 wonderful years for the story to end, I find myself asking for nothing more at its conclusion. I have an indelible smile on my face. I am a Star Wars fanboy now and for ever more. I am content.
Thank you Mr. Lucas.

era mods, why the fuck are you banning someone for laughing at this opinion?
The one positive I have to provide here is my closest theater wasn't even half full for ROS
Which, considering it was early-evening on a weekend and technically the second full day a brand new Star Wars film was available for the public here to see, seems noteworthy. Even with all the many valid criticisms to have about this one, I didn't think it'd be enough to not result in sellouts here for at least the first weekend, but we didn't even have one for a showing so far and it's been very easy to get tickets for if you want to see it
Anyway. Actual film. First, my full final rankings

Last hour of Rogue One

Hey, if everyone else gets to pick and choose what to recognize and respect, so can viewers. This is my full and final list
I don't think I have anything surprising or new or personal to add (besides I binged the whole series this week and sincerely believe this was worse than at least ROTS if not the rest of the prequels, in numerous ways including that I actually gave even Phantom Menace at least one rewatch and don't for a moment believe this is getting a second chance from me), and frankly as much as I know I could easily rant for a thousand words about anything and everything that made me roll my eyes, frown, sigh, or consider just leaving early to beat 5PM traffic:
it's not worth the effort
If they didn't put in a single ounce of effort Or heart in the 2.5 hours they had to end this saga (if they're even brave enough to really have it be the last time you ever see or hear of the crew, be it old [Luke, Han, Leia, Chewie, Anakin, Vader] or new [Rey, Poe, Finn, Kylo, porgs, basically everyone but Rose because they just don't give a shit about her])...why should I put more into calling it out? They're just cowards. And this was cowardice top to bottom in damn near every decision put to screen
But hey: I saw Cats last night and I'm seeing it two more times before Xmas, and I'm proud of it. That "cinematic monstrosity" I believe at least one person here posted a tweet critique of? Had more heart, more excitement, more risk and more pulse in the average 10 minute sequence than this shit would have ever let itself come near

President Trump has unilaterally withdrawn the United States from the Paris Agreement's previously global human commitment, which had set aside personal ego and political posturing to stand united as a species toward averting the climate change crisis threatening our future and our children's future and endangering all the beauty and diversity of life surrounding us. We were, until today, sharing the common human goal of transitioning away harmful emissions and onto clean, renewable energy.
The United States now stands alone in petty, ignorant, corrupt opposition of this critical global endeavor, and, if we follow along with this executive decision in apathy, the rest of civilization will come to see the United States as an enemy of its own species and saboteur of our one and only collective home, an embarrassment to humanity and an awkward 18th century mistake outstaying its welcome. This is not my desired course as an American whatsoever, but it is the course that has been officially chosen for the United States nonetheless.
However, the current POTUS and his supporters in the White House and Congress do not represent the will of the American people in this: 70% of Americans approve of the Paris Agreement. He does not speak for several of our most important economic and cultural centers at the state government level: New York and California and Washington have already formed a Climate Alliance pledging to continue onward with the mission statement of the Paris Agreement, and more state and city governments appear eager to follow. Apple's Tim Cook, Tesla's Elon Musk, and other influential US tech leaders have condemned the White House's decision and will continue treating this climate crisis as a threat to humanity that must be acknowledged and addressed, not a petty game.
Throw me in with that lot, too.
On behalf of my community here at NeoGAF -- a beautifully diverse, global membership & audience of every country, ethnicity, religion, orientation, socioeconomic status, and video game platform loyalty -- I denounce the US government's decision to withdraw from the historic Paris Agreement that the entire world, including the United States in a vocal leadership role, had already formed universal consensus on and committed to, and I pledge to act in spirit with the mission statement of the Agreement, both personally and professionally as founder and CEO of NeoGAF.
I will not let the whims of the White House determine my own role in preserving or destroying the future. No disingenuous political talking points, or payoffs, or short-sighted selfishness will allow me to rationalize away the realities of our circumstances in favor of apathy or senseless profit. I've been fortunate enough to witness first-hand a great deal of the beauty and diversity in culture and and life and landscape that this planet has to offer, and these experiences have had a profound impact on me that cannot be assigned a dollar value. I refuse to accept that future generations should be left with experiencing what I've seen through the lens of an ancient and whimsical Planet Earth episode or VR simulation while thousands of species go extinct and billions of people lose their homes.
I will continue contributing to environmental activism efforts such as The Sierra Club and NRDC, I will continue to remain conscious of my personal footprint and take steps to reduce and offset it, and I will continue investing in clean, renewable energy technology and infrastructure.
Don't let cynicism or apathy or ignorance or selfishness win. Any conscious effort and action, within your means, to preserve our shared future and the beauty of our collective home is infinitely preferable to an indifferent shrug. This isn't a time for judging or making demands of others; I won't tell you how you should be living your life, how to spend your money, or how to determine and order your priorities, or what you can afford to or have a moral obligation to do. Just take a moment, look inward, and decide whether this whole thing means something to you, and if so what choices you're comfortable with given what you know about the stakes here; whether you're an American or any other brand of human. Meanwhile, I'll do what I can.
You in?

Tesco 'prison labour' Christmas card company also supplies Australia's Cotton On Group (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-12-23/tesco-prison-labour-christmas-card-company-supplies-cotton-on/11822652)
A Chinese printing company accused of using prison labour to make Christmas cards sold at Tesco supermarkets in the United Kingdom is also a supplier to Australia's Cotton On Group.
The forced labour allegations emerged after a six-year-old girl in London discovered an apparent plea for help written inside a Christmas card, which was made by the company Zhejiang Yunguang Printing and sold at the supermarket chain Tesco.
"We are foreign prisoners in Shanghai Qingpu Prison China. Forced to work against our will. Please help us and notify human rights organisation," the note in the Christmas card said.
In the video, Zhejiang Yunguang Printing listed Cotton On as one of its top international partners, alongside Tesco, Disney, and the US retailer Big Lots.
REEEsetera, being such a progressive forum, is surely planning on boycotting these companies who are using slave labour, right?

Probably not but the whole network is not routing at a basic internet level right now. Jersh needs to wake up and fix it, I'm not involved in that layer.
Scanning should continue normally, not that I ever pay attention to whether or not it works anymore. It runs off servers outside of the KF network/AS.

It's network issue, not a server issue. The autonomous system that KF runs off of is not secret and if you can find it if you look. The whole subnet simply does not route right now.

OP you are asking an interesting question, I think the abrahamanic rooots of hollywood dont allow to explore the possibilities of parental failure despite good intentions, I think its a very deep psychological subject that can make some parents react against the media because of proyection, they want to not make parents feel guilty even if the story line would greatly benefit.

When, back in '17, i criticized The Last Jedi for being "yet another shit Star Wars movie", i thought i was criticizing just a children's fantasy movie.
What i hadn't realized, is that i was inadvertently taking my place in the trenches, in what was (and is) the frontline of modern political discourse.
Ignorance is no excuse, but all i can do now is retract my previous statement, and underline, in this new light, how magical and impactful of a scene, the freeing of the cgi horse-rabbits in the space Casino, really is.
Mea Culpa.

@Rufus:
The guy seems to be legit. In the immediate wake of the meltdown he talked about how he was be funny/comedic, but he still posted hundreds of times on his Twitter to an audience of only a few people (most of his tweets have 0 likes) and he is too committed to the bit. Even in his "meltdown" livestream he notes that he streamed to 12 people, and that it was the most he's ever streamed to. Immediately after the stream was over he ended up deleting the video, which is why me and benji uploaded it.
Now I am disappointed and relieved at the same time.

Not when everything they have to say about Star Wars comes back to The Last Jedi.
It really doesn't, though. They talk about the movie for over an hour and maybe five minutes of the discussion is pertinent to TLJ. Most of them even say they liked TLJ more than this one.
Well their takes on it were certainly horrible so I didn't trust them enough to continue on with it.
Who was the one who liked this one more?
I used to really like RLM but they have just doubled down on stupid shit over the last couple of years that they make it harder and harder to actually ever watch any of their stuff. I guess they gotta do whatever they can to keep the lights on.
Also what happened to the Half in the Bag set? Did they just stop doing lore based stuff around their reviews?

I mean the Star Wars franchise management is a weight around the neck creatively speaking so i'm not surprised in the least Rian couldn't swing it. Who could? They even tried to force Lord & Miller to drink the Kool-Aid and turn out something they wouldn't be proud of. Reminds me of that David Fincher quote I read once:
My first movie [Alien 3], it’s fairly well known, was a disaster. I stupidly felt that the people who were financing it had more to lose than I did if it was bad. I allowed myself to be steered into this communal making and then when the shit hits the fan, all of a sudden, everybody scatters and you’re the guy standing there saying, “wait, who’s got a suggestion now?” So if I’m going to take the blame, if I’m going to take the brunt of it, I’m going to make the decisions.

mike in particular seems consistently bothered by the corporate part of movie-making. this is pretty consistent with how he viewed star trek movies, the star wars prequels, the star wars sequels, and other blockbusters. the face he makes when he asks about what came first - the comic book black panther or the black panther movement is a pretty good indicator of this. he's more offended that some corporation would take something and shove it into media. i can side with him on the believe that film should be art, but he's a thousand percent wrong when he goes off on stupid tangents about the diversity in the force awakens and how it's really just a marketing ploy. maybe it is - but representation matters. not just for the art being created right now, but how it will bring in new fans with different backgrounds and upbringings, who can expand perspectives. i think mike could really do with being a lot more open-minded and a lot less binary on this sort of thing. jay just needs to stop feeling like he's being personally attacked in some scenarios.

Yeah it's going to be hard to get mad at shit like "But this isn't like my legacy character!" If there's no legacy character, timeline, etc to complain about. And anybody else complaining about SJWs should be ignored completely anyway.
This guys thinking Star Wars is fucking Final Fantasy or something and you can shit anything because Rian Johnson dares to innovate by not accomplishing nothing in his film.
Hollywood is not that creative to begin with to make that hypothetical Star Wars free of Skywalkers without feeling like a rehash with different name. At best you fucks are going to get a competent adaptation of the Old Republic and people will bitch again about not respecting the games.

Plenty of people like it, but with a few of them it’s like Ghostbusters 2016, where they felt compelled to defend it against a (genuine) alt-right backlash and, now that the dust has settled and people can admit to not liking it without having their motives questioned, they’re struggling to come down off a war footing.
Basically, they’re the Japanese soldiers on Pacific islands who don’t know the war has ended.

Cavill is/ was a very active Eve Online player, too. Rumor has it that he was in Confederation of Pizza back in the day. Similar to how Goonswarm was based on Something Awful and TEST was based on Reddit, Pizza was based on 4chan, and they were considered the most toxic edgelords in the game. Absolutely a bunch of people Era would love.

The Bore's brash humor got me into trouble with someone in my guild in a game. She worded something funny, which I twisted into her saying she had an incestuous relationship with her son, and kept harping on that joke for a while. Turns out that she had been a victim of a weird incest-lite cheating situation, and she got hurt by my jokes.
Thanks a lot, Bire. ::)

Saw the movie this morning.
As far as analyzing a film within the backdrop of all others films created since the invention of the motion picture, all the critiques are correct. The plot, full of holes. The pacing, incredibly too schizophrenic. Carrie Fisher, much too forced. The fan-service, in your face.
But for someone who has grown up with Star Wars since the beginning, this is not just "a film". For someone who has consumed virtually every piece of EU material since Splinter in the Mind's Eye, this is not just "a film". For someone whose very way of life -- the hobbies they chose, their approach to popular media, the lens through which they view the world, their notion of good versus evil -- has been influenced by Star Wars to a greater degree than any other artistic creation, this is not just "a film".
The Rise of Skywalker is an incredibly flawed movie, perhaps even objectively mediocre, but having waited 40 wonderful years for the story to end, I find myself asking for nothing more at its conclusion. I have an indelible smile on my face. I am a Star Wars fanboy now and for ever more. I am content.
Thank you Mr. Lucas.

That thread is from a gay person who kept getting harassed for various things after coming out.
Some of you are such repugnant pricks.
They seem more concerned about the food than homophobia. Bring some shit to the dinner that you can eat and not make everyone else suffer.
I’m also VERY particular about my diet, especially lately. It’s important to me to avoid wheat/carbs/dairy. And for sure at these events, most, if not all of the food, will be wheat/carbs/dairy. And I’ll look rude if I just sit and don’t eat (although I obviously already look rude almost never attending things).
I dunno, I basically just don’t go because I don’t want to eat crap that’ll make me feel sluggish and drained and because I just feel like it’s all very forced.
Also plenty of other people complaining about their families in that thread and I would imagine most of those families are just fine with them not attending.
I feel you OP. I hate going to family gatherings. I don't like anything they care about. All they talk about is college spots, and I couldnt give a shit about college sports. I tried showing them rocket league at thanksgiving one year and they basically ignored me.

User Banned (Permanent): Inflammatory whataboutisms concerning race and colonialism, a severe history of similar dismissal
Theres the argument to be made about recent African politics. In post independence, African leaders used colonialism as a scapegoat to hide the fact they were pillahing their own countries. Kwame Nkruma being the first example. Now because of these early leadears usage of a victim narrative (despite that narrative being true) and the socialist wave across Africa, African governance is now strongman neo-patronage structures that work to keep Africa from developing. Given the full context of his remarks theres the possibility hes aligning with the very real movement against colonialism as a scapegoat and that the real issues lay in African corruption?
Of course, none of this is to downplay the effects of colonialism or neo-colonialism today. Just that within the African intellectual sphere (like George Ayyitay for example), they argue that blaming everything on that has lead to their current predicament of being pillaged by the mabenzies.
Still though, BP has every right to exist. What this guy ought to argue for is better representation of African politics. Though we also have Nigerian cinema for that.

I hate Home Alone 2 and think the DJT cameo is the least of its political problems. I am going to make this as short as possible because, as my beleaguered friends can attest, this is a rant I have gone on repeatedly recently. While this is one of my hottest of takes usually reserved only for private circles, I will finally present my thesis publicly. I will take not questions and make no follow up posts. Thank you.
Home Alone 2 is fucked up. It is a degenerate's holiday film.
Kevin McAllister is a rich, white, suburban American kid whose stupid family is obscenely wealthy. Not just his immediate family, but his extended family as well. Not only is the McAllister dynasty wealthy enough to support a Parisian vacation over the holidays with 11 horrible children, but the other McAllister terror cell they are visiting is rich enough to be kicking it back in Paris while their entire, multifloor Manhattan townhouse undergoes extensive renovations. This is a family whose wealth knows no measure or limit. The financial security Kevin enjoys as an upper class young boy cannot be overstated. Kevin McAllister is a boy with no concept whatsoever of want besides superficial desires like cheese pizza.
In Home Alone 2, Kevin finds himself lost in Manhattan with his father's credit card. For all intents and purposes, Kevin has unlimited money to do whatever he wants. So he does. He goes to The Plaza hotel, one of the most luxurious hotels in the city, and tricks the staff in to giving him a room. While we are meant to be impressed with Kevin's antics, this is only the beginning of a long series of humiliations he exerts over the service workers at this hotel as Kevin lords over them all with his generational wealth.
While Home Alone 1 has Kevin defending himself from would be home invaders in a life threatening situation, the service staff at The Plaza poses no such threat to him. They are not invading his space, he is invading theirs. Every single one of them are there because it's their job to be. They are doing their jobs - over the holidays no less - as Kevin manipulates them to fulfill his luxurious whims. We are meant to find it hilarious how he degrades and debases them. He doesn't tip them, he subjects them to repeated embarrassment, and ultimately makes them afraid for their lives as he simulates a mass shooting. We saw a glimpse of this in Home Alone 1 with the pizza delivery boy, but in Home Alone 2, Kevin's treatment of the wage staff at this hotel is inhumane. What we see here is that upper class Kevin exerting unearned dominance over the working class with extreme prejudice.
There is not a single hotel employee that has done anything to earn Kevin's abuse beyond do their jobs. Yet he makes them afraid they will be murdered if they dare step out of line. This is shameful.
However, where the movie is really beyond the pale is in regards to Kevin's relationship with "the pigeon lady." This homeless woman isn't even given the dignity of a name in this film. At first, Kevin perceives her with fear and disgust. He attempts to run from her but fumbles and becomes stuck. She helps him and Kevin, momentarily, shows a glimmer of humanity as he realizes it was wrong to be afraid of her. This moment of empathy is brief, however, as Kevin's selfishness and sociopathy does not allow for any actual understanding of anyone below his social class.
This woman explains that she wasn't always homeless. She once had a home and a man she loved very much, but it ended badly. This incident gave her PTSD and now she is distrustful of others and is unable to function in society. She calmly and bravely opens up to Kevin about her past trauma and her subsequent dehumanization in an uncaring society that forsakes the mentally ill. And do you know how Kevin responds? He says yeah, he gets it, because he's the youngest in his disgusting family. He then tells her to get over it and that only by opening herself up to love again will she ever not be a homeless lady covered in bird shit again. Straight up, to her vulnerable face, Kevin tells a homeless woman that she is responsible for her own prolonged destitution and that if she wants people to treat her better she needs to get over her mental illness. Kevin then goes home to his luxury hotel where he has every whim of his indulged by service workers he humiliates.
Seriously, he has unlimited money. He couldn't have gotten her a place to stay? Or invited her to stay with him? He couldn't share his unlimited food with her. He didn't even offer to let her take a shower. He descends from his nearly-llteral ivory tower, blames a shit covered mentally ill homeless woman who suffers nonstop dehumanization that she needs to get over her PTSD, and at the end of a movie he gives her a fucking bird ornament to show her how much he cares about her. How does he sleep at night in his king size bed at The Plaza hotel knowing that someone who opened up to him about her inescapable poverty and trauma is sleeping on the street in the cold? What is wrong with this monster?
Home Alone 2 is a perverse Christmas Carol. It is the story of a spoiled rich young boy whose time with the working class and the poor motivates him to torment or abandon them. Even his supposedly virtuous gesture of preventing the toy store robbery costs him nothing. It's not his money. It's not his donation. Kevin does nothing except take a tour of what it's like to be less fortunate than him and live it up in a Trump Hotel. The Wet Bandits were right to want to kill Kevin and I always hope they catch him.
It is a disgraceful film and I hate it with my life. It is perfect that Trump is in this movie. Perfect.

User Banned (Permanent): Inflammatory whataboutisms concerning race and colonialism, a severe history of similar dismissal
Theres the argument to be made about recent African politics. In post independence, African leaders used colonialism as a scapegoat to hide the fact they were pillahing their own countries. Kwame Nkruma being the first example. Now because of these early leadears usage of a victim narrative (despite that narrative being true) and the socialist wave across Africa, African governance is now strongman neo-patronage structures that work to keep Africa from developing. Given the full context of his remarks theres the possibility hes aligning with the very real movement against colonialism as a scapegoat and that the real issues lay in African corruption?
Of course, none of this is to downplay the effects of colonialism or neo-colonialism today. Just that within the African intellectual sphere (like George Ayyitay for example), they argue that blaming everything on that has lead to their current predicament of being pillaged by the mabenzies.
Still though, BP has every right to exist. What this guy ought to argue for is better representation of African politics. Though we also have Nigerian cinema for that.

Nuanced, non-approved responses are subject to immediate and permanent removal from the discussion.
Let's not bring in someone who seems actually know African politics. This is a serious discussion about Black Panther!

Being fair with Black Panther, the villain was totally going to use colonialism as an excuse to pillage the world. Even T’Challa found disgusting that the past kings used isolationism to justify throwing killmonger under the bus.

I hate Home Alone 2 and think the DJT cameo is the least of its political problems. I am going to make this as short as possible because, as my beleaguered friends can attest, this is a rant I have gone on repeatedly recently. While this is one of my hottest of takes usually reserved only for private circles, I will finally present my thesis publicly. I will take not questions and make no follow up posts. Thank you.
Home Alone 2 is fucked up. It is a degenerate's holiday film.
Kevin McAllister is a rich, white, suburban American kid whose stupid family is obscenely wealthy. Not just his immediate family, but his extended family as well. Not only is the McAllister dynasty wealthy enough to support a Parisian vacation over the holidays with 11 horrible children, but the other McAllister terror cell they are visiting is rich enough to be kicking it back in Paris while their entire, multifloor Manhattan townhouse undergoes extensive renovations. This is a family whose wealth knows no measure or limit. The financial security Kevin enjoys as an upper class young boy cannot be overstated. Kevin McAllister is a boy with no concept whatsoever of want besides superficial desires like cheese pizza.
In Home Alone 2, Kevin finds himself lost in Manhattan with his father's credit card. For all intents and purposes, Kevin has unlimited money to do whatever he wants. So he does. He goes to The Plaza hotel, one of the most luxurious hotels in the city, and tricks the staff in to giving him a room. While we are meant to be impressed with Kevin's antics, this is only the beginning of a long series of humiliations he exerts over the service workers at this hotel as Kevin lords over them all with his generational wealth.
While Home Alone 1 has Kevin defending himself from would be home invaders in a life threatening situation, the service staff at The Plaza poses no such threat to him. They are not invading his space, he is invading theirs. Every single one of them are there because it's their job to be. They are doing their jobs - over the holidays no less - as Kevin manipulates them to fulfill his luxurious whims. We are meant to find it hilarious how he degrades and debases them. He doesn't tip them, he subjects them to repeated embarrassment, and ultimately makes them afraid for their lives as he simulates a mass shooting. We saw a glimpse of this in Home Alone 1 with the pizza delivery boy, but in Home Alone 2, Kevin's treatment of the wage staff at this hotel is inhumane.

It's much healthier to make believe/pretend that Santa is real. Playing that Santa is real, not actually upholding a lie. If at a young age their mind is taught that illogical things are acceptable, that can have negative effect on how the assess other truths from fiction in their future. I don't want my child to walk through life thinking that anything is possible. That is how to get conned, duped and taken advantage of.

But for real, I mostly agree with you, although with a less cynical outlook on kids.
The approach I took was not debunking Santa, but also not saying he was real. I let him get his Santa-ness through osmosis with the culture, then when he asked me, I told him Santa is a real role, that Saint Nick was real, and that while he died, Santa carried on and now there are many Santas. Then I asked my son if he wanted to be someone's Santa, and he did, so we dressed him up and he snuck a present into his friend's home (with the parents' permission, of course). He loved it, and I never lied to him. It worked out great.
-
For me it's a matter of trust. I was bugged that my parents had lied to me, and I know a bunch of other people who also felt betrayed. Trust for me is paramount, so I needed to find a way for him to enjoy the magic of youth without actually taking it as a blow to his trust in me (and just a blow to his happiness) when he discovered the truth. So I found a way to make it all work.

Yeah i'd be too lazy for all that. Laziness is my real motivation behind hating Christmas. A picture with a mall Santa is what, $20? Fuck that.
And lol at the "I mean", it's not intentional. May as well start my sentences with "Well...". I guess it's my subconscious way of being self-effacing. They say you're not supposed to start a sentence with "and" either.

No you do a stupid thing, your life needs to be over!
Drunk driving is as harmless as driving after eating several pot brownies, calm the fuck down.
It's not harmless, but people shouldn't have thier lives be destroyed because of a bad mistake.
It's just for such a progressive place, Ree is always short on forgiveness when their strict and rigid high moral standard conflicts with the flawed reality of life. There's only black and white with these people. When the US government has more moral nuance and is forgiving you've fucked up.
And it pisses me off.

nah, fuck drunk drivers, they unfortunately end up killing people other than themselves too often

There's nothing inherently progressive about empathy or nuance. They have blind spots just like anybody else, and let their ignorance dictate what rights they feel people should have, just like everybody else.
They're progressive because they are anti-conservative. That's as far as that label is useful.
-
Habitual drunk drivers at some point should have their license suspended permanently. It's not about forgiveness it's about taking weapons away from people on drugs.
-
Definitely, driving isn't a right. A multi-ton metal monster with ease of 100+ km/h is quite the weapon.
Then again, I'm also in favour of well developed public transport infrastructure.

I have no intention in teaching or enforcing lies in my future child's mind. Convincing a child that magic is actually real is a detriment to the early development of critical thinking in developing brain.
It's much healthier to make believe/pretend that Santa is real. Playing that Santa is real, not actually upholding a lie. If at a young age their mind is taught that illogical things are acceptable, that can have negative effect on how the assess other truths from fiction in their future. I don't want my child to walk through life thinking that anything is possible. That is how to get conned, duped and taken advantage of.
What fucking miserable people.
I feel sorry for this guy's kids.
I mean some people think it's a dumb tradition, you really want to shove down people's throats what they should and shouldn't celebrate? If the kids get presents, cookies, and milk, I guarantee you they don't care about the other shit.
The cookies and milk are for Santa! :bolo

A punishment fitting the crime doesn't mean a punishment equal to if the worst case of your risky behavior had happened.
Speeding kills people. Running red lights kills people. Cutting people off kills people.
Yet I think we would all agree that a prison sentence instead of a speeding ticket is way over the line.
But drunk driving is way more risky than any of the above. It kills tons of people, often by doing the above infractions. So it should carry a heavier penalty than going 10 over on the freeway, even though both actions kill people on a societal level.
I do think texting should be treated just as harshly as a DUI, though. But enforcement is an issue. There are other mitigating factors as well.
It's a nuanced topic that needs to take in both the gravity of the action as well as rehabilitation and costs.
And as always, RE is woefully unequipped to handle anything with nuance.

My state just made interlock devices mandatory after a first DUI offense, my state was incredibly punitive until recently backing off on that part since it wasn’t acting as an effective deterant and instead moved to prevent people from even being able to operate the vehicle if they are drunk. We still have heavy fines and possible jail time but I’m happy they moved to actually prevent the issue instead of just punishing the behavior.
-
Yeah, prevention through deterrence is pretty questionable when a primary feature of alcohol is judgment inhibition. It should still be there to some level, but yeah, I think deterrence mostly only really works for DUIs by proxy, as friends don't want their drunk buddies arrested. Prevention through mechanical impossibility is definitely the way to go where possible.

No idea. We had already broken up when this happened, so I didn't get every detail.
All I know is, she took a turn too fast, knocked down a light pole and ended up on another car. Ultimately totaled her leased car, which apparently didn't have proper insurance so she owes the dealership like 20 grand.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/ate-burritos-last-night-and-looking-to-make-amends-any-other-stories-of-racist-families.2560876/
So let me be clear, I've got no problem with going to Taco Bell and putting money directly into Mexican pockets but last night at my parents' (we're white) for Christmas dinner, my mom decided she was going to make burritos.
At first, I was shocked that she even managed to buy all of the ingredients as when I was a cashier, I would throw a hard side eye at any white person buying groceries for a clearly ethnic meal which was usually enough for them to say "don't worry about it" and leave the store. But anyway, my mom (she's white) decided to buy all of these things for the express purpose of making a meal from an ethnicity other than our own.
I explained to here that this was clearly cultural appropriation and that I wanted to eat something different. She said I was free to as long as I made it myself which was a trap as she knows I don't have any culinary skills to speak of.
So anyway, I ate the burritos but made it very clear by the expression on my face that I wasn't happy about it. I didn't even eat the baklava she'd bought for dessert.
So now I'm looking for a way to make up for my mom's ignorance (she's white). Was thinking about going to buy a chalupa from Chipotle for an authentic experience or maybe contribute to a Mexican charity or something. I dunno.
So how was your christmas dinner era?

Now, to compound this, I actually had asked her for something this year. In the last 6 months, I lost 80 lbs on a keto diet, something I'm super proud of. I would text her my progress when I'd lose weight, she knows it was a huge deal to me. A big part of how I did it was by completely cutting out sugar from my diet. I have had an enormous sweet tooth ever since I was little. So, for christmas, all I asked her for was to get me some candy, any candy. I told her christmas day would be the lone cheat day for me, the day I'd forget about keto just for a day and eat all the candy I wanted. Didn't have to be expensive candy, just any candy. I would bring it up pretty much every time we'd talk, which is pretty frequently, how I was excited for candy on christmas day. She didn't get me any candy. She actually made fun of my old weight and how I was "begging for candy" when I walked in, in front of the whole family (extended and all) which was at my mom's house for christmas. I'm sensitive about my weight, so right from the moment I walked in, I felt awkward.
Damn she hates him.

Again, if the sister has kids, their house is already cluttered with a bunch of junk, they don't need any more from the creepy shut in brother who apparently can't buy his own candy.

Slavery in the United States only ended 154 years ago. That's two 77 year olds living and dying back to back.

Even on this left-leaning site getting white gamers to not balk at the mere existence of a black character in a video game is like wringing blood from a stone.

This history also refers to just one country out of the many others that were besieged by colonialism, a destructive movement that was in existence for a few centuries, longer than my people have "enjoyed" their rights as American citizens.
This idea that 100 years is enough for racism to just not exist anymore is insulting as all hell when white people have already had 154 years to actually prove something to non-whites and yet they still get it wrong with routinely deadly consequences. And on top of that they get mad when you tell them they keep getting it wrong. This attitude is baffling.

I’d love to see her list on what things were like BEFORE slavery ended. I’m sure the standards on bail and loans were way better then.
Ignoring and talking down progress just causes people to make less effort and become more convinced that nothing can be done to help. But she convinces herself that any recognition of progress means people want to ignore the problem whatsoever.

Does anyone else feel they can’t have sex (or do certain sexual acts) due to germaphobia, or something related? I’m a total germaphobe (OCD), which can make sex difficult for me as sex sometimes grosses me out.
For example, I just had a threesome with two guys. One guy and I were topping the third, and then the bottom went down on us and then began making out with us. It totally grossed me out but because I didn’t want to be a buzzkill I just went along with it.
Now I’m going home, freaking out that I’m going to get some stomach flu or something, and I have chronic tummy issues and afraid it will make those issues worse... Anyway...

Yes, how confusing that someone may have a political stance against illegal immigration and also appreciate the culture of Mexico. It's a fucking mystery how these people function.
Or maybe sombreros are more associated with stereotypes rather than having a genuine big cultural significance. :gurl

Now, to compound this, I actually had asked her for something this year. In the last 6 months, I lost 80 lbs on a keto diet, something I'm super proud of. I would text her my progress when I'd lose weight, she knows it was a huge deal to me. A big part of how I did it was by completely cutting out sugar from my diet. I have had an enormous sweet tooth ever since I was little. So, for christmas, all I asked her for was to get me some candy, any candy. I told her christmas day would be the lone cheat day for me, the day I'd forget about keto just for a day and eat all the candy I wanted. Didn't have to be expensive candy, just any candy. I would bring it up pretty much every time we'd talk, which is pretty frequently, how I was excited for candy on christmas day. She didn't get me any candy. She actually made fun of my old weight and how I was "begging for candy" when I walked in, in front of the whole family (extended and all) which was at my mom's house for christmas. I'm sensitive about my weight, so right from the moment I walked in, I felt awkward.
Damn she hates him.

They don't give my brother and my brother in law's brother lavish gifts... but they give them appropriate gifts. Like my brother, he loves hockey. We live in Houston, which doesn't have a hockey team, but they drive to dallas to go to Dallas stars hockey games. They gave him a dallas stars ballcap for christmas. Do you know how hard it is to find dallas stars ball caps in Houston, Texas?
Um, go to Dick's Sporting Goods, Scheel's, Modell's, Foot Locker, Lids, or any other sports store? Or there's this neat new website called Amazon.
What a fucking choad. The sister is definitely giving him shitty stuff on purpose. If he's half the douche to his family that he is on ERA, they all fucking hate him.

She didn't get me any candy.
Did a 10 year old write this?
$5 worth of candy -- like a bag of gummy bears or whatever -- would have meant way, way more to me than a $10 beanie to a football team I honestly can't stand.
Donate the hat (and make some Texans' fans day brighter) and buy the candy yourself, holy shit...

Why didn't their sister gives them the second print of the Pikachu Amiibo or a Disney Star Wars The Last Jedi stickerbook. What an evil person to not give them the proper precious presents.
-
What spurred this? ResetERA was founded before EviLore's implosion by PoliGAF and Cerium with help of Nibel and folk, is something similar happening?
This is very true and I can confirm it, but you left out some importants parts of the story, which make it even more pathetic.
I know this thread is for laugh only, but still, I'll post it here :
"They" (Cerium, Shinobi...) were building a gaf alternative because according to them Gaf's moderation was really biased toward Sony (which was true, let's be honest) and they thought Nintendo wasn't treated fairly. Those same people thought the Wii U's failure and 3DS cold welcome from the market were partially due to Neogaf's attitude toward the two console (which were false, of course). They couldn't shut up about it.
As far as I know, the Gaf's alternative was also brought-up during the "Alison Rapp" case, when she was outed as a prostitute and got fired for it. According to Cerium, he maintained (in private) that Gaf's staff didn't stand up enough for her. That's the moment Cerium aggregated many of the most unhinged feminist of Gaf to his small revolution.
Now, the juicy part is not only Cerium and some gaf posters took part in the projet. There was also many journalists that were mad at gaf and were thinking about it. If you always wondered why the Shower event was covered that extensively (while no one gave a fuck about Malka's past behavior), it's only because the timing was perfect to bring gaf down this time and some journalist knew an alternative was in the work. Outside of seeing the receipts of those discussions, when you see articles like that : https://kotaku.com/thousands-of-neogaf-users-flock-to-new-website-1819871316 that screams like an advert popping and know who the author of the article is, the writing was on the wall.
I know someone who knows Besada and Cerium very well. I also happen to know Alison Rapp personally.
Imagine engineering the destruction of a site because they don't support your favorite video game toy.
Nintendo is my favorite console by the way.

Tbh nearly everyone in the industry hated what gaf had become. There was schadenfreude and hope for the future. REEE turned out even worse but luckily it has much less influence than gaf did at the height of its popularity.

I kept dropping hints to my family that all I really wanted for Christmas was the Starlink: Battle For Atlas toys-to-life Arwing, because Fox is my favorite Smash fighter and I already have several copies of his amiibo, some of which I've customized with alternate color schemes from the game. I just needed the Arwing to complete my collection. I know it's been only $8 on clearance now everywhere but that just meant it'd be all the easier for my sister to buy it for me, and it would've meant so much getting it from her. I even sent her the Best Buy link.
What does she give me? The fucking King K. Rool and Ganondorf amiibos. She KNOWS I HATE these characters because they move so slowly. In case anyone has any illusions of how much my sister cares about my preferences here, these are tier D and C characters respectively. I can't even import their amiibos into the game to use as sparring partners because nobody of any skill plays them, it would be pointless to practice with them.
When I opened the present everyone else in the family laughed, my sister probably the hardest. It was humiliating and infuriating, especially after the thoughtful gift I got her (a Pearl Splatoon amiibo, because I identify the character with her youthful looks and always tell her I think of her as my little Pearl).

Posted at 8 last night, at 7 pages now. Nobody butthurt about it at all.

I mean, she's still in the bad film, AND the racists won.
Honestly, she probably does need her own Disney+ show at this point.
A half assed written character in TLJ needs her own show. Why? Because people harassed her on the internet! She deserved an honest shot.
FFS, Rose is the new Communism. (No, it’ll really work this time!)
-
Imagine looking at box office numbers for a fucking Star Wars movie and writing without irony "The racists won."
-
To be honest, I don't think it's relevant whether you specifically liked her or not, it's not like Jar Jar Binks because critics seem to have liked Rose. It just seems pandering to a section of the fanbase, who seem dodgy with their intense hate. It's one thing if the writer didn't know how to give her a good story but look at the rest of ROS and how pandering it feels, and the writers' intentions are hard to respect.
This logic doing so many backflips it got me dizzy. :dizzy
So because a character invented by the previous film's director didn't get a bunch of screentime, JJ is certifiably racist because "he should have known" that's exactly what the Star Wars racists wanted.

in complete fairness, rian johnson didn't use jannah anywhere in his film, a powerful african american with an affinity for the horse-like orbaks, which would've fit in perfectly had she been along on finn's adventure on canto bight where they released the fathiers

The Rose Tico love is so shameless. :lol There is zero stake in claiming she deserves her own movie or tv show or just saying you love her. There is no chance Disney would ever expand on her so you can say she should get her own ride at Disneyland with no risk that it will come out and fail due to lack of interest.
I just pray her salary for the movies leaks soon and they all compare it to what Mark Hamill made.

"Who Versus?"
Any form of art should not be considered on it's merit but by who hates it. Are you on their side or are they "the baddies." That is how you decide if something is good or bad, if the opposing team likes/dislikes it.

I was sorta shocked at how quickly JJ retconned The Last Jedi.
He wiped the movie completely from the narrative, including the one cool thing that happened "That's not going to work again, nope", "THIS CHARACTER? Have her look at some schematics lmao"

If you know anything about Star Wars (I'm an expert) you would know that Leia was adopted (she's bi) by the royal family of Alderann, which means Luke ain't shit.

Because literally nobody is talking about that. We’re talking about one man, a piece of shit who abused anywhere from four to dozens of people over the past 59 years. He was reported to church and local authorities, they knew about it for years, they did nothing. He got what he deserved, albeit decades too late.

Slightly unrelated but I hate when people call their children step-children. It just feels like a way of classifying them in a separate category to kids you personally had a hand in creating and placing them in a lower rung in your family. Either be their parent or don’t, but treat them like equals in your family.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/secret-dossier-reveals-jeremy-corbyn’s-strategy-was-crude-and-vindictive-sunday-times-uk.161709
There is a gigantic warning in here for those believing that all you need is to win the war within the party and sell far-left policy to win over the "WWC" voters who've been moving away from parties like the Democrats and UK's Labour for generations now. Maybe it'll be heard this time because it was just attempted here and boy did it not work out. Conventional wisdom was bucked, polls were ignored, history rewritten, and in its place fan-fiction completely divorced from reality was implemented with catastrophic results. Corbyn's unpopularity was a immensely gigantic albatross that was going to hurt Labour badly no matter the approach, but this strategy, rather than trying to help stem the bleeding, ensured they were going to be magnifying the effects

Those bans are literally in a thread bawwwwing about why a character nobody particularly liked didn't get a bunch of screentime and plot dedication to make them a better character in the sequel and pwn the whoevers by proving that ackshually they were a great character all along, which is double plus stupid because it inherently acknowledges that no, they weren't a fucking great character that only racists could hate
-
By saying "her character and story were so bad" they sorta imply that the other characters had good stories, which they didn't. The movie was just shit all around, no blame for anyone (except storywriters, directors, etc). But yes, bad thread, bad ban reasonings. Sorta funny how pushed diversity was in the trilogy, because appeasing liberals = money, and then they cut that miniscule gay kiss at the end, because appeasing homophobic countries = money. I guarantee a decade from now the only thing we will remember about this film is that a) it sucked and b) Disney doesn't care about gays.

They always talk about design but it seems to just mean "more clothes=good , less=bad." It's like discussing the architecture of a bridge but instead of taking into account style, artistry, cost, or technology you just focus on the weight of materials over instead of the form.
It's like reviewing food based on it's environmental impact. Sure, you can do that but you sound like an idiot to people who review food based on taste, preparation, and presentation. These people who design "bad," aka scantily clad costumes, went to art school and learned the principles of making costumes and now some dweeb-o is judging them based on how much skin is shown

Guys, you are missing the Forrest for the trees here. The point is not, "oh well Rose sucked anyway", which is your opinion and has no base for the character approach on RoS.
The thing is that Kelly, suffered bullying so hard (with racist and misogynistic traces) that she had to abandon social media. The result of Disney and JJ was not to stand behind the actress and instead appease to trolls and all-righters to basically humiliate both the character and the actress to please them.
I don't care you think TLJ sucked or didn't make sense, is about a mega corporation again pleasing it's toxic fanbase.
:mindblown
this argument is SO FUCKING STUPID
If a character fucking sucks that has EVERYTHING to do with how that character gets used in follow up media.
Like, the best thing you can say is that the character was poorly written and kelly tran is actually a great actress who was miscast.
We're not gonna see fucking shia labeouf in the next Indy film, no matter how many fucking YT meltdowns he has. His character sucked and nobody wants to see more of them.
people bagging on her on twitter fucking sucks, but its not 'appeasing alt-right trolls' to not use a character who focus tests for shit and the audience actively dislikes.
blame rian fucking johnson for shitting her up in the first place and the fucking clickbait idpol bloggers trying to make fetch a thing by literally timing how many seconds of screentime she got with a shitty character.
I'm sure the millions of dollars shes making on the back end for like, a fucking afternoons work, are going to help soothe that pain.
tokenism is some fucking obnoxious shit, and it baffles me to see people literally arguing in favour of it without a shred of self awareness or irony "sure, that character was awful but at least they checked a diversity checkbox!"

I believe she gets a double page in TLJ. Do films generally give back to back dual pages for side characters if the side character isn't prominent anymore?
-
There is a big spoiler in the movie that explains Rey's power which feels like it was done to appease the "Rey is a Mary Sue" assholes like known sexual predator Max Landis who popularized that talking point
Not only that, but she has a training sequence...
This was a good thing. We rarely get to see Jedi training in the films.
I have no issue with it. But the people that hate her character and called her a Mary Sue constantly said she's too powerful, and we never saw training. Appeasing those people isn't great.
Not every decision made is to appease anyone. A Novice force user undergoing training is a logical plot development.
Half of The Last Jedi was an extended Rey training sequence, and few people tried to frame it as "appeasing" the toxic elements of the fanbase.
That's true. I haven't seen TLJ since it was in theaters, but I wasn't thinking about that. My bad.
The fact this poster actually took the argument, reasoned, and apologized is amazing.
But this default RE starter position of "Something bad MUST be getting decided behind the scenes, because reasons" is so bizarre to me.
Additionally:
- this poster hasn't seen TLJ since theaters
- still defending it against TROS
- a good plot can be bad if bad people like it apparently?

It's weird. He hasn't been in one movie i've seen that I liked enough to watch again (though I havn't seen Fury or Honey Boy or Nyphomaniac), but I still think he's a good actor.
He added that working with Spielberg was basically like pulling the curtain away from the Wizard of Oz: “You get there, and you realize you’re not meeting the Spielberg you dream of,” LaBeouf said. “You’re meeting a different Spielberg, who is in a different stage in his career. He’s less a director than he is a fucking company.”
How can you hate someone who speaks so much truth?

In 2025 or so Disney corp is going to panic when they discover that a decade later there's no 'nostalgic value' in what they created between 2015 and 2020.
makes it easier to keep rehashing as i don't think the star wars brand is going to go away - you have people on ree whose entire worldview and moral code was informed by these movies and disney will keep drip feeding things like the mandalorian until the next trilogy

I mean who cares about the priest fuck, but that kind of experience will undoubtedly mess up that guy. Reminds me of the dude who escaped Jeffrey Dahmer and got him arrested, only to become homeless and kill a guy himself years later.
Dahmer targeted gay prostitutes breh. It’s not like he had a perfectly normal life before he escaped.

shias character in indy 4 is annoying as fuck, and indy 4 was just not a very good movie.
those two things are wholly seperate from shias general capabilities as an actor or his public / private life as an actor.
its just mental to approach a new indy film as "well, shias had some rough stuff in IRL, so let's make sure he has a role in the next indy film, and we'll spend a ton of time and effort reworking the character he played so people think better about shia the irl actor to compensate for some of his real life stuff, in addition to the lets-not-kid-ourselves-fairly-fucking-substantial paycheck he would be earning anyway"

You can be happy or unhappy, but you can't say "KMT is literally our only representation in Star Wars films," which is a direct quote of you, and is not true.
DID YOU READ THE QUOTE OR ARE YOU CHERRY PICKING SO YOU CAN BE TECHNICALLY CORRECT!?!
My god, are we literally at the point where asshole like you tell Asians to be happy with our representation just because you hate a movie? KMT is our sole representative across the main series of movies. With any other coming from a side movie where they all die or from cartoons where I have to guess their race! Out of everything I cannot believe you are trying to outsmart me by cherry picking my statement to act like I don't know that there is more than 1 Asian represenation. And even then, I could be just as petty and mention that she's our sole Asian Actresses with a major role so it wouldn't matter anyway!
I'm not just "technically correct," though I certainly am that. You are the one diminishing the contributions of Asian actors to three of the last 4 Star Wars movies released since 2016. Calling them "Buddha" and acting like they were shit when they were in the central cast and got their own posters, claiming that having two legendary Chinese actors rounding out the protagonist crew in a movie that outperformed Episode 9 on its opening weekend amounts to nothing is definitely... a choice. Push for more, sure - more diversity is great, but what is this need to pretend these contributions practically never happened and are essentially worthless? Rogue One you have those two characters just for East Asian representation, plus Riz Ahmed if you want to expand to the rest of the contintent. Then in Episodes 8 and 9 there is Rose and her sister, and there are plenty of side characters like Ken Leung's character, X-Wing pilots, and outside the films there's Tiya Sircar's character, the Battlefront II protagonist ... Yes, I'm going to call out a comment like "KMT is literally our only representation." It isn't true.
Oh my fucking god. You're serious? You're fucking serious? Yes please thank you I'm so glad so many characters are in shit most people will never play while the one main Star Wars line, the only things most people pay attention to by the way, has a grand total of two Asian characters, one of which dies within the first 5 minutes of meeting her! And to throw every minor character in and call that representation. Are you serious?
Are really trying to tell Asians they are wrong with this shit? Are you really here trying to justify a garbage culling of an Asian actress with "But you had minor characters and a fucking VIDEO GAME CHARACTER!" as this? Fuck this and fuck you. I expect you to justify this next time when more Asian actors get minor little rolls as oh so happy proof that we are "progressing!" This makes me fucking sick. GodamnIT!

Reading some of the rant above was reminded of a post from an electronics forum I came across recently during a topic where a poster was being rude to every poster who presented another argument, which I thought described this manner of posting behavior succinctly.
When a poster resorts to fact-free personal attacks, I take as symptomatic that he lacks confidence in the factual content of the position he is posting and is hoping to drive any rebuttals away with unpleasantness.

This is NOT being “allergic”.
What the fuck. I mean there are people who truly cant drink a sip because it means death to them (due to medication) or who have a real allergic reaction.
Getting a headache and feeling awful might be bad to you, but do not compare it to an allergic reaction.
That’s lack of respect and insulting towards those who have a allergic reaction.

They could've easily fitted more of the necessary backstory in there if they had just lengthened its runtime a bit.

What made it feel more earned? To me, it felt like shoving two people with similar skin colors together in the last hour of the movie because that’s easier for audiences to tolerate than mixed-race couples. And let’s have them both be former stormtroopers so they don’t have to actually bond. It felt like taking some pretty dirty shortcuts possible to making two black people on film appear to have a connection. “Ignore any romantic tension you may have felt between Finn and Rey or Rose. These two black characters used to be slaves. They just fit together.”

Children's laser sword cartoon movie created literal evil megacorp to sell to the unwashed masses, chopped up and resold to the unwashed masses of whatever shithole country that wants it. Feeding the worst aspects of consumerism.
But to them it's some sort of political symbol because some marketer correctly assumed how shallow these people are.

Why receive the ire of the people when you can opt to sell them packaged progressive-ism and cement yourself as the ally of the downtrodden.

Might be but they're not wrong. Give Christopher Hitchens some whiskeys and you might have one of the funniest, most enlightening conversations of your life. Give some dumb guy some whiskeys and you get a guy with liquid courage- yeah, the courage to tell you he think minorities are lazy, and also the courage to keep talking to you even though it's clear you're not interested and just want him to leave you the fuck alone. Plus people suddenly think they can fucking touch you. Drunk gay guys (strangers) grabbing my ass, girls grabbing my hair because I won't dance with them...

You can be happy or unhappy, but you can't say "KMT is literally our only representation in Star Wars films," which is a direct quote of you, and is not true.
DID YOU READ THE QUOTE OR ARE YOU CHERRY PICKING SO YOU CAN BE TECHNICALLY CORRECT!?!
My god, are we literally at the point where asshole like you tell Asians to be happy with our representation just because you hate a movie? KMT is our sole representative across the main series of movies. With any other coming from a side movie where they all die or from cartoons where I have to guess their race! Out of everything I cannot believe you are trying to outsmart me by cherry picking my statement to act like I don't know that there is more than 1 Asian represenation. And even then, I could be just as petty and mention that she's our sole Asian Actresses with a major role so it wouldn't matter anyway!
I'm not just "technically correct," though I certainly am that. You are the one diminishing the contributions of Asian actors to three of the last 4 Star Wars movies released since 2016. Calling them "Buddha" and acting like they were shit when they were in the central cast and got their own posters, claiming that having two legendary Chinese actors rounding out the protagonist crew in a movie that outperformed Episode 9 on its opening weekend amounts to nothing is definitely... a choice. Push for more, sure - more diversity is great, but what is this need to pretend these contributions practically never happened and are essentially worthless? Rogue One you have those two characters just for East Asian representation, plus Riz Ahmed if you want to expand to the rest of the contintent. Then in Episodes 8 and 9 there is Rose and her sister, and there are plenty of side characters like Ken Leung's character, X-Wing pilots, and outside the films there's Tiya Sircar's character, the Battlefront II protagonist ... Yes, I'm going to call out a comment like "KMT is literally our only representation." It isn't true.
Oh my fucking god. You're serious? You're fucking serious? Yes please thank you I'm so glad so many characters are in shit most people will never play while the one main Star Wars line, the only things most people pay attention to by the way, has a grand total of two Asian characters, one of which dies within the first 5 minutes of meeting her! And to throw every minor character in and call that representation. Are you serious?
Are really trying to tell Asians they are wrong with this shit? Are you really here trying to justify a garbage culling of an Asian actress with "But you had minor characters and a fucking VIDEO GAME CHARACTER!" as this? Fuck this and fuck you. I expect you to justify this next time when more Asian actors get minor little rolls as oh so happy proof that we are "progressing!" This makes me fucking sick. GodamnIT!
:umad :umad :umad
Imagine having a meltdown AS AN ASIAN OH MY FUCKING GOD because someone called out your claim that LITERALLY THE ONLY ASIAN EVER IN STAR WARS is a bullshit claim
Obviously era moderation policy in this kind of scenario is to side with the breathless nonsdensical hysteric because they are triggered over the most inane shit possible, so expect a 'downplaying racism' ban for stating the actual facts of the matter while era continue to psyche themselves into a frenzy of self-determined oppression
This is the most Era post ever. Guy 2 rationally presenting how the assertion by guy 1 is incorrect and then guy 1 goes into a shit flinging rage and calls guy 2 racist. Guy 2 is banned.
Emotion, rage, and accusations outweigh facts and logic. yep, that's NeoGaf and Era.

I'm watching TLJ to figure out what people liked about Rose so much and it seems to be the same as the "good design for women," thread. Except instead of "less skin = good," it's "asian girl = good character." Her motivations, dialogue, actions don't add up to much but she sure is asian. I can imagine her having a brilliant 1.5 minute speech in the final movie and it being dismissed for being too short. Less=bad, more = good.
Good food.

Eh, I don't think it's correct to downplay the actual point beyond complaining about Rose in ToS. Yeah her character sucked. Yeah Ree is annoying and people are super virtue signalling. No I don't think it was 100% some conspiracy at Disney to appease alt-right people.
But I mean the inherit issue still sucks. Representation of people of color in Hollywood movies still kind of sucks. Maybe more so for Asian for people. Yeah the only merit that really exists for this Rose outrage is that she was Asian. Sure. And if they did include her there would probably be a lot of continued complaints about forced diversity. So it just kind of sucks all around.

User Banned (duration pending): Antagonizing another member in a sensitive thread.
In one of your many other suicidal threads a couple months ago you had made it sound like you were an accomplished chef. Now you’re saying you’ve just been washing dishes the last 8 years. Am I missing something here?
User Banned (Duration Pending): Transphobia, inflammatory comparison
If you are walking around with a small penis, you don't lead off with that on the first date. You show off the things that make u more appealing and hope that by the time you take them home and open the box, and plug in the chord its too late for them to back out. Then you come overcome that deficit by showing them great first party moves and oral skills err i mean OS.
I value transparency to be honest. Your analogy doesn't work because, no one shows off their dick before interacting with someone (in a traditional dating situation). If someone has some sexually transmitted infection, or is trans, I think that's info that should be given prior to any type of intimacy. Put all your cards on the table, and let the other party make a decision from that point on, then we go from there. Otherwise it seems like you were attempting to hide aspects about yourself you'd rather others didn't find out.

Hello Era, I had a very enlightening but also difficult meeting with a woman the other day. We had a conversation that revolved around gender politics, an area where she is very clearly much more knowledgeable and experienced than I.
Fortunately she was patient and was able to clearly explain to me certain aspects of radical feminism. The evening ended with many questions remaining on my part.
She in turn was I think exhausted from the effort she had made to get across ideas and ways of thinking that are still foreign to me.
I thanked her sincerely the next day in a message, after spending part of the night digesting the experience, and she was moved by this. I followed up asking her for some more pointers or a recommendation on a good text on gender politics and radical feminism, but have not heard back from her.
Since I have the day off I was hoping to get in some reading on these subjects, so I'm asking for recommendations in this thread as well.
Specifically, the part I had the greatest difficulty relating to was her attitude towards romantic partnerships between men and women. From her point of view, in an ideal world, men and women should live almost entirely separately, in same-gender or mostly same-gender communities. She seemed very confident of this, which confused me, as we had met on a dating site and she wanted to meet in real life almost right away.
So I'd like to understand what role do men play in society according to radical feminism, and also if possible I'd like to know what fundamental concepts in gender politics should I educate myself upon in order to be able to have more encounters like this in the future?
Thank you.

Again, you are failing to understand that they can do something racist without intending it to be so. All that you said is immaterial to the fact that one of the few times an Asian person was a main character of a blockbuster series, JJ and co decided to revoke that status. You don't seem to understand what systemic racism is and I urge you to do some research in it.
If you contribute to systemic oppresion of minorities, you are at least doing some racist regardless if you had bad intentions or not. JJ and co do not have to overtly hate or feel prejudiced against Asians to do something racist against them. He has a responsibility here, and he failed.
OK I'm out. :badass

They had so little Leia material to work with that I'm having a hard time picturing what hypothetical scenes she could even have with Rose.

All I see is "Please don't hate us" from this.
Carrie Fisher died in 2016, which impacted the shooting of TLJ to an extent (iirc, the film might already have been in post-production or on the way to post-production). The justification in saying that they planned to pair Rose and Leia is complete bullshit considering the timing.
Yeah, the way Carrie Fisher's death is used as the catchall/excuse for why the film is a mess is ridiculous.
This guy somehow knows exactly how much Leia footage was usable, and the writer of the film either doesn't or is lying. :dizzy

Again, you are failing to understand that they can do something racist without intending it to be so. All that you said is immaterial to the fact that one of the few times an Asian person was a main character of a blockbuster series, JJ and co decided to revoke that status. You don't seem to understand what systemic racism is and I urge you to do some research in it.
If you contribute to systemic oppresion of minorities, you are at least doing some racist regardless if you had bad intentions or not. JJ and co do not have to overtly hate or feel prejudiced against Asians to do something racist against them. He has a responsibility here, and he failed.
OK I'm out. :badass
I can't think of any action that can't be rationalized as contributing to systemic oppression of minorities in some way
posting on era is racist because:
- the site attempts to paint itself as by/for minorities in spite of being 99% white and male, and often shouts down legitimate minority voices
- no matter how regularly they're banned, you're actively spending time in good company of others who gleefully make racist comments like defending disney's destruction of rose, and their racist mindset subtly seeps into your own
- black culture is relegated to one tiny thread off in etcetera hangouts, segregation exactly how the racists want it, and they're being picked off one by one; don't even start talking about asian or jewish culture
- era's general standard of lunacy reflects badly on "minority" viewpoints and provides morons with the perfect strawman without having to construct their own

Nah. If you think back they've always been this crazy. Remember when they tried to claim Kingdom Come: Deliverance was racist because the game tried to be as historically accurate as possible? If it seems like they're getting crazier it's only because there's less dissenting opinion as they shave away all the sane members.
It will never not be weird to me that The last Jedi of all things is a platform on the site that you absolutely have to agree with. Like lmao it was a wack movie who cares?

Why stop there?
- The computer or phone you're viewing RE on was not created ethically
- The electricity spent on accessing RE contributes to climate change
- Ad-based sites are inherently unethical and exploitative (said by someone who worked in adtech)
- The forum software running RE is nonfree
Etc. etc.
At the end of the day it's people getting off on feeling holier-than-thou. And what's better than feeling holier than a blockbuster director who you believe wronged you?

All according to plan. That’s exactly what they’re seeking with redefining terms and definitions so they can do the six degrees of racism on anything anyone says or does. All depends if it gets enough attention to reach that critical mass of offense.

Digital Foundry believes the new Xbox will be stronger than PS5. They must be shills.
DF create videos to make money. The guys have to be paid for their analysis. The more videos, the more revenue.
It’s a shame they’ve become a bit spammy in the past year (Directs and Let’s Plays) but I get the hussle especially after the ad pocolypse.
Yeah DF seems to be headed down a dark path with this nonsense. How are they any better than all the other clickbait sites when they’re peddling the same exact shit? They could have just waited for Sony to reveal the PS5 specs which is very soon and go from there. This smells of desperation.

Neither KetKat nor Royalan probably felt safe enough to post again on a site with such hateful acephobic arophobic staff members around who were protected and never named. They even scared off freedom fighters like FeistyBoots and Kyuuji from demanding to know when all the new diverse moderators will finally be added. And nobody seems to be interested in implementing the trackers to make sure that members aren't also visiting other hate sites secretly.
It's become really scary since Cerium dissolved the LLC which made it permanently impossible for one person to own the site.

This is NOT being “allergic”.
What the fuck. I mean there are people who truly cant drink a sip because it means death to them (due to medication) or who have a real allergic reaction.
Getting a headache and feeling awful might be bad to you, but do not compare it to an allergic reaction.
That’s lack of respect and insulting towards those who have a allergic reaction.

Ever since I’ve turned 21 I’ve fucking dreaded going out. All anyone ever wants to do is go to a bar/club!!! And/or waste money eating expensive garbage.

That whole thread is great... Era has such a weird relationship with alcohol. Like, there are a shit ton of perfectly valid reasons why someone would abstain, but they are so quick to give themselves a medal and boast about it. And of course Era is totally extreme about it - either people completely abstain or they are getting piss drunk and waking up in pools of their own vomit... the concept of people having a glass of wine with a nice dinner, or a pint at the local dive bar to unwind is lost on them.

This is a good example of just how much the staff of ResetERA.com refuse to do the bare minimum to protect marginalized posters. These should be permanent. They aren't going to stop being a racist in two weeks. They aren't spend those two weeks learning about why their bigotry is wrong. They probably won't even watch The Last Jedi once, let alone five or six times as is appropriate in a two week span. They're just going to stalk the forum from the shadows and visit hate sites that fuel their violent ideology and probably buy some games in the GOG Winter Sale to help promote the Nazi Empire of Poland's transphobic "Cyberpunk" hate speech. They'll probably even watch YouTube videos which is a gateway drug to Nazi ideology. Then the ban will be up and they'll be able to continue to threaten the safety of marginalized posters.
As Cerium once said before he chose to throw away everything to chase Big Conservative Money™ on his path to likely endorsing Trump for his pro-ace/aro-genocide agenda: "It all stops now. Do not complain that you were not warned."

I'm honestly really confused about what's happened with the Star Wars fanbase divide. Like, at the time I mostly enjoyed The Last Jedi and didn't really get a lot of the vitriol that was directed at the movie even if I could concede that there were some iffy parts. And looking at the spoilers for Rise of Skywalker I think it mostly sounds kind of stupid but at the same time it sounds like it's dumb fun if you can get past its stupidity so I'm not surprised that a lot of the people I've talked to in real life seem to mostly like it. But online at places like ResetEra there's this legit battleground where some people are convinced that TLJ is nothing short of a masterpiece and the only criticism it gets is from agenda-driven pieces of human garbage. Or conversely there's this contingency of people that think that The Last Jedi was worse than the prequels and if IX sucks it's only because Rian Johnson completely shit all over Star Wars' legacy and JJ had nowhere to go with this one.
As someone that thought 7 and 8 were both just "ok but nothing special" films it's really bizarre to watch.

The same thing happened with Joker where if ResetEra came across as insane for thinking the movie should be banned there were just as many people that seemed interested in it only to rile up the Era-types of the world.

They're also the same people who would swear anyone who didn't like Ghostbusters 2016 was an alt-right misogynist troll until people stopped caring about that "battle" and most of them also admit it did indeed suck.
Right, but this kind of goes both ways. That's sort of what I don't get. Like, it's not just progressives that are championing these films. There's also people that hate Ghostbusters 2016 that will spend an inordinate amount of time assuring you that their reasons for hating the movie are completely legitimate and grounded in appreciation for the craft of filmmaking when it seems like the correct play would just be to note "I thought the movie sucked" and then move on with your life and not get roped into the social proxy war in regards to a fucking Ghostbusters movie. The same thing happened with Joker where if ResetEra came across as insane for thinking the movie should be banned there were just as many people that seemed interested in it only to rile up the Era-types of the world. Championing a dumb comic book movie to own the libs, if you will.
Here is the thing: Who the fuck cares if a bunch of idiots hype a film to own their ideological enemy?
Most people just want to enjoy and discuss their entertainment without feeling they are walking to a minefield.
its extra stupid because in 6 months time they'll have moved onto some other fucking thing like wanda vision being the greatest thing ever and anyone who says otherwise is a nazi, and people will be 'permitted' to say that TLJ really isn't all that, in the exact same way you're now 'permitted' to say that Captain Marvel really wasn't all that without getting dogpiled

I think another reason why people are specially touchy about the sequel trilogy is that they are competent films compared with the prequels, and yet seem to enjoy them way less (me included).
If I need to guess, when the prequels made stupid decisions or disservice to certain characters people could care less because only Yoda, Palpatine, ObiWan and Darth Vader mattered in the bigger picture. That Chewbacca was friends with Yoda, that Anakin hated sand or Yoda become a CG character didn’t mattered because in the end the OG trilogy will be intact in most people memories.
With the sequel trilogy, we have: HanSolo and Leila failed relationship and Edgelord son, Luke failing in rebuilding the Jedi Order and becoming a bitter hobo, nothing changed in the galaxy and everyone is even more miserable than when New Hope started. The new characters are even less developed overall than the prequel ones, the TLJ made clear that nobody had a plan on anything and Rise confirmed how much of hack is JJ Abrams. Nothing in the OG trilogy mattered because the Star Wars universe ended how it started but with different names to factions and characters. Is the devaluation of the franchise to a point of being a legendary one to “what the fuck we do with this?”

Kathleen: "George I just fired Colin... I like Rian but I think he needs to do it his way with a new trilogy and we're running out of time. I don't know what to do George. We've been writing for 2 or 3 years and it doesn't make any sense.... help me"
George: "You got my notes Kathy or is this where you hit the panic button and call in the one favor I owe you?"
Kathleen: "Sorry George... but the Whills? I just can't get Disney to sign off on that... and yes PLEASE! JJ said he would do it as long as we have a good script and some of his friends get cast"
George: "Use the Force Kathy hehehehe, or do what I did and bring back Ian as the big baddy again. He's great and the internet loves him. Between you and me, people always thought Star Wars was about stories but it was really about families and relationships. The story can literally be anything you want it to be. Hell, I named a thing Yub Nub"
Kathleen: "That's Palpatine right?, but he's dead?"
George: "Ian is very much alive Kathy and jesus, you people really didn't read any of my notes did you? He has many abilities that some would consider to be 'unnatural', put that line in the movie and you can get away with anything. Palpatine lived on this crazy Sith Planet and he's threatening the Galaxy with new taxation laws. An army of Sith is waiting and ready to strike the Galaxy as well as enforce this new order... let's say THE FINAL ORDER"
Kathleen: "Thank you George!"
George: "You're welcome and now about this Maclunkey thing we discussed, everything has a price Kathy and I really want to win this bet I have with Harrison Ford"

It’s much easier to understand when you realize there are people who built their identity around the media franchises they consume, so when those media franchises do not live up to your imagine standards, based on the identity and expectations you’ve imagined in your head, you have an emotional freak out.

That was the thing with Ghostbusters 2016. Even fans who fell into that category went "Not my thing, have fun" got backlash.

The progtards will call it a bluff, "rednecks are too fat and lazy to really do anything". Now i agree with them up to a point, it takes alot nowadays with the relative comfort that modern life brings to scarifice your job, reputation, even life for a cause, but the soypackers got one thing wrong. You dont need a 100% of right wing gun owners to rebel. Really 1% will do. Law enforcement need at minimum, 10 officers to one well armed citizen, in any given town of 10000 people with a 1000 gun owners, there will easily be a group of 10 guys that trust and know each other and are radical enough in their beliefs to fight for it. Youd need at least 100 cops to stop that, and enforcement would tell the shitlibs in their local globohomopolis to shove it, after 2 or 3 shootouts at the ok corral. They dont get paid nearly enough to take bullets from formerly lawful citizens.
And the fkin national guard of all things, who do you think comprises the national guard shiteaters? The same people that are in said militias, thats who, you utter pinko wankers.

"Only to rile up"?
People were trying to get the movie cancelled, while at the same time whipping up a fervor around the movie which could have potentially ended up inciting someone to commit a shooting at a screening. There is a reason why the media has guidelines on how they cover shootings. So yes, i'm sure there's gonna be some "I told you so" regarding the fact that no shooting occured, but i'm more interested in the "I told you so, and don't do this shit again". Now imagine if there had been a shooting. Do you have any idea how much resetera would have enjoyed that happening? It makes me sick to think about.
Honestly I miss the old days when the moral puritans who thought they had the authority to dictate what society could handle were firmly on the religious right.

And at the end of the day, it was a good movie that got standing ovations at festivals and that audiences loved. Can people not say they liked a fucking movie without it being some political hot potato?

If the next trilogy isn‘t about an openly fascist group that gets into power through semi-legitimate means and is functionally no different from the Sith but gets really mad if you call them Sith because a large part of the galaxy is complacent and would rather slowly drift to the dark side than risk outright conflict, Disney doesn‘t deserve this franchise.

The answer to Disney's woes is staring them right in the face.
They brought back Hamill, Fisher(RIP), Ford, Mcdiarmid, Daniels, Williams and the lot. It all didn't work.
And their future plan to bring back Mcgregor? Sorry Bob, Not going to work.
Return to the man and the legend #ReleaseTheLucasCut :lucas
Bring back George Lucas you cowards. It's your only way to salvage this thing. He doesn't want to write or direct the entire film? That's fine.
Just his presence on set alone and allowing him to make all the big decisions will make your next production a million times better.
That's the secret behind The Mandalorian. Just look at how everyone was depressed and worried until George showed up and started making the decisions.

Game of Thrones crashing into a wall at full speed in a completely avoidable fireball absolutely wrecked me for weeks.
I slowly stopped caring about Star Wars over the course of the past five years thanks to crap like JJ Abrams and Rogue One, but GoT really stuck to me and it hurt so much to watch it die that way.

If you were really into GoT, and even I kinda was for s1-4, I can see it. Lamenting for weeks is a bit much but I imagine the poster in question wasn't like, secluding themselves in their room for weeks on end because of GoT. (I guess this is RE and I shouldn't take that for granted...)
I do think overall that popular entertainment has too much of a strangehold on the mentality of the age, but I also empathize with those seeing something they like, uh, turn to ash in their mouth.

Just want to clarify these protesters aren’t the same as the ones that have been going against the government for over 2 months now, they are a bunch of militia under the order of a bunch of criminals.
Really wish we would just stop bombing people but hey.
You realize the bombing was in response to the recent attack that killed 1 American and injured a few more in Iraq right?
Get the fuck out and stop shifting the blame.
The fuck are you talking about? I’m an Iraqi and know exactly who those people are.
Get the fuck out and stop shifting the blame.
Maybe understand the situation before attacking other posters. This is a response by militia supporters, not general civilians. Read the fuck up.
Get the fuck out and stop shifting the blame.
So, are you gonna apologize or...?
My apologies then, you're indeed better suited to know about this.

The worst for me was the latter-Spielberg "gloss/sheen" that looks so fucking fake and phoney.
The originals especially Doom were fucking gritty. And you can do gritty digitally, but he swung the entire opposite way.

The aliens are a bit weird and there's some problems with tone because of it but that's really not the major issue with it. It's ugly, often a CGI mess, the photography doesn't fit, it's pretty soulless, on rails and no one gives that much of a fuck really. The intro up to Ford's appearance and the bit with Shia in the dinner are the only parts that lives up to the standard of an Indy film.
Last Crusade... was already a big step down in my opinion. Slocombe was severely ill up that point and photography sometimes get iffy. It's mostly a rehash of Raiders with a bunch of tacky pandering to fans that actually robs a lot of mystery and agency for the main character. Crystal Skull is the same but a lot, lot worse.

There's a vast difference between making a comment on the ship and saying Finn should've 'laid the pipe' to Rey. One is an opinion, the other makes you sound like your character just wanted to fuck Rey.

This would make more sense if the site was some large ass site and bans were treated as some temporary thing that you went past the normal established rules. But it's a small site and you don't know what the rules actually are except there's protected users. And I doubt that everyone knows there's protected users so you're dealing with a minefield set in a small area.

The timing seems WAY too convenient. Smells false-flag-y.
Just call it an intuition. A new years eve siege on the US embassy in Iraq creates a crisis that would be all too beneficial to Trump in his time of great weakness and vulnerability as a recently impeached president, staring down the barrel of a Senate conviction. I recon we'll someday learn about an orchestration with Iran to manufacture the whole thing. There is precedent for these types of actions from the Trump admin, as we all know.

yeah i agree with what you just said. dont think is a big issue.
BUT...
saying is a "fictional character" so it doesnt matter. its a slippery slopeeeeeee

I do think on some level people are being a bit obtuse to try and pretend that sexualizing a fictional character isn't at least sort of sexualizing the real flesh and blood person who looks exactly like the character because they play them.

Fuck the Telegraph.
Yeah fuck the Telegraph
i wasn't aware that telegraph is problematic. should i ask for the thread to be locked?
It is a right leaning newspaper (UK Right not US Right). To my knowledge it is no more than that although I don't read any of the UK Newspapers they are all terrible.
More like the Torygraph
They have Farage and Johnson frequently write in the paper.
This paper is a Tory propaganda machine, like most major papers in the UK at the moment. There’s a reason it’s referred to as the Torygraph.
They’re just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Tory/right wing political editorial representation in the Telegraph tbh.
They used to be right leaning, now they're bordering on far right loonies. I personally feel that they don't deserve their own thread (in the same way the Daily Mail wouldn't if they did a list) but others may feel differently
The Telegraph is nothing but far right trash these days, a propaganda paper for the Tories.
i did ask for the thread to be locked, but it was rejected. i now feel bad for making the thread :(
It’s a conservative newspaper so you might get accused of supporting bigotry. Wait for a sanctioned list.
Any attempt for them to appeal to a younger audience shouldn’t be signal boosted imo. Better that they die with their ageing readership.
OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
It's okay to discuss the article linked in the OP and it's okay to discuss how problematic The Telegraph is in this thread: the latter will not be considered off topic for the purposes of moderation.

I mean, there's a big difference between having personal feelings and putting it out there in public, especially when it's about a co-worker (and the 'but Rey isn't a real person' argument doesn't really hold water) where it can make people uncomfortable. I also think, while it's also less problematic due to our patriarchal society, the tweets from women about various Marvel stars are a little off-putting and weird as well, but it'd be even weirder and more off-putting if say, Brie Larson made a thirst tweet about say, Sebastian Stan, for obvious reasons.

I don't think it's cool to put people down like that, I don't think anyone has a negative intention if they characterize things in a way you disagree with, I don't think it's coming from a bad place to be concerned about objectification and stuff.
It just seems like kind of a reach for me personally because that's not how I look at media. I worked in pro wrestling for years, so I'd like to think I have a good grasp on the distinction between a character and the individual, but maybe you're right in that some people may not be able to make that distinction.

This is true explicitly in the comments that led to her quitting Instagram and social media. Same with Leslie Jones in Ghostbusters. That's the loud version of racism.
The room volume version of it is a little more subtle. The Canto Bight scene is the rorschach test. That is the heart of the movie, it's why the coda returns to the Canto Bight stables to show what Luke was teaching us -- the Force is everywhere and within everyone and no one can claim the Force any more than they can claim Life -- the bad guys will try, but they'll never win in the long run. It's an exciting sequence, in a new and imaginative world, where we get a perspective on class differences in the SW universe in the most direct way since Episode 1. In the long view of the saga, the stable kids call back to Anakin and Luke and Rey who each came from versions of poverty. In the short view of it, they're hunting for a macguffin in a casino -- half of the Bond movies have used a version of this scene, but here we're in Star Wars so it's fun weird aliens. What's not to like, I don't see it? It seems to me the reason people think it's pointless, or boring, or whatever complaint I've never seen a particularly good argument against the scene other than "I didn't like it" and what reason is there really other than it's Rose leading us through it?

Because it’s totally sexism and not a sarcastic joke at all and we’re totally a ok going after this black guy for his harsh comments and totally not racist an any way shape form or suggestion.
So, if it's OK for black men to make harsh sarcastic jokes about women, then it should be totally OK for women to make racist jokes about black guys, as long as they're sarcastic and if you criticiaze them alll, that just proves you're a sexist, right?
Yes... Yes... Let the hate flow through you.

After further extensive research I have determined that their Progressive Stack basically is only based on gender:
Transgender
Moderator
Women
Men
Then the rankings within those four categories are decided by race, although this is almost purely based on US/Canadian/UK norms unless someone from another place can stand their ground long enough to resist.

We should have seen the warning signs when Shy was repeatedly banned simply for posting an image without any context but which was really a clever trap to reveal that insidious fact that white women, including ResetERA.com moderators such as Morrigan, chose racial solidarity over stopping fascism by not preventing other white women from voting for Donald J. Trump. Something that simply isn't allowed within the British people of colour community.

After all the headaches the mods have had recently trying to placate the different groups on ERA, there was no way they were going to pick the people who thought what Boyega said was sexist over the people saying those who took issue with Boyega comments are low-key racists or vice versa. I can't wait for this indecisive wishy-washiness from the mods to start being called out by those groups frustrated they can't get people from other groups banned.

The final marvel movie, star wars, and Mission Impossible movies very much choreograph what they will do. I've never liked the Mission Impossible movies after uno numero but then I realized they are just James Bond movies but with larger set pieces. That's all these movies are. They are made to deliver a set template and the last Star Wars does that while including like 30 main characters. It's not easy to make a good movie with a cast that large that you all have to include.
What the fuck were people expecting? It managed to rise to the occasion of a star wars movie. People saying it should have been a commentary on the 2016 election of Clinton vs. Trump are comic book readers who view the world via childrens entertainment.

But the idea of moving away out of my parents house feels near unattainable, much less moving so far away.
I have many issues with it, I feel I need 3 things to make the jump to move out in general:
1. Someone to move out with
2. At least a semi stable job
3. Savings
Yeah, a big move is quite a life-changing thing, so when there's so- wait.
I feel I need someone to move out with, for both emotional reasons and financial reasons. I don't believe I have someone I can move out with though, much less someone willing to move so far. I also do not have a partner/girlfriend, and I never have, and I don't believe that trying to seek one out solely to move is likely to end up well.

I honestly do kinda want to see a mainstream movie with incestuous characters that grapples with that in a serious context. Maybe even a sci-fi movie where it's normalized. Though, uh, this certainly isn't the way to go about that.
IMDB has a list for that actually :

At what point did Luke Skywalker's suicidal depression end? Because he ends the movie convinced that there is no way to help the good guys other than staging a public suicide to help them get away. It's not like he's been given a new lease on life. He just accepts that he is more useful as a force ghost and as a legend than he is alive and marks the fuck out, because the end of the movie treats him as a thematic prop to hammer home a message instead of a character.

Never again having any character flaws whatsoever, meeting, defeating, and having babies with a hot redhead, being the greatest, bestest, strongest, and wisest teacher and jedi ever, etc.
It really does explain a lot about how Crossing views this series that what is a very clear, child friendly metaphor for self improvement and becoming a more fully realized and aware version of yourself is flandarized into something that seems so impossible and unattainable.
It reminds me a lot of people that tear down Superman for being unrealistic, or ask why Batman doesn't execute his villains. Quit applying your IRL mediocrity to hero stories for kids just because you don't believe in heroes, or in the case of Luke Skywalker, that someone could make a lasting, permanent philosophical change in their life.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/i-bought-the-last-guardian-at-launch-but-i-am-too-scared-to-actually-play-it.162358/
Some background info: Shadow of the Colossus is my favorite game of all time. It succeeded in everything it set out to do and I had experienced such an emotional confection with a game prior to it. The bosses and the world traversal combined together gave the game incredible pacing. Each boss encounter feels so lovingly crafted and satisfying to learn the in and outs.
I was a Gamecube kid in my youth and never played Shadow of the Colossus until playing on my Roommate's PS2 back in 2010 and falling passionately in love with the game. When the HD collection with Ico was released, I beat it again before touching Ico. Ico initially did not connect for me. I didn't immediately engage with it which led to me putting it down. I returned to the game a few months later and beat it. I like Ico a lot. It has incredible storytelling and presentation even if I found the gameplay frustrating at times. I then read up on what Team Ico's third project The Last Guardian which I knew I would have loved if it would come out of development hell. A few years later, the famous Sony 2015 E3 press conference opens on The Last Guardian and my heart swelled. It was happening. It was finally fucking happening.
December 2016 comes and I had the game preordered on Amazon. I had just graduated and earned my Bachelor's Degree. I was applying for jobs. Donald Trump had just been elected president. I had a metric fuckton of worries and anxiety over the future. Would I find a good job? Would I end up disappointing my family? Will I be happy? The game arrived in the mail and I opened the packaging and looked at the box and the disc before setting it aside and applying for more jobs. I figured I could play it tomorrow. Tomorrow turned into the next day. Next day turned into sometime next week. I also had serious trepidation over what if it did not live up to the insane expectations I had for the game.What if it disappointed me?
Here we are at the beginning of a new decade and I still haven't touched it. I have had my ups and downs since the game released.
Am I crazy? Is any of this normal?
Perhaps its time to put all of that to bed and give the game a fair shake and look towards the future.

But the idea of moving away out of my parents house feels near unattainable, much less moving so far away.
I have many issues with it, I feel I need 3 things to make the jump to move out in general:
1. Someone to move out with
2. At least a semi stable job
3. Savings
Yeah, a big move is quite a life-changing thing, so when there's so- wait.
I feel I need someone to move out with, for both emotional reasons and financial reasons. I don't believe I have someone I can move out with though, much less someone willing to move so far. I also do not have a partner/girlfriend, and I never have, and I don't believe that trying to seek one out solely to move is likely to end up well.
:lol :lol :lol
I want to get a GF just so I can take a vacation to Thailand without looking like an Era member. But seeking out a GF so you can dump all your insecurities on her? :goty2

"Physically outclassed."
Why is everything class/ evolutionary development with her?
If she were not a mod or protected status her bizarre class & race divisions would call for a perm. But it's somehow promoted when any other black, gay, trans person would get shitcanned.

I mean, this is actually true. Whether or not you should care about the politics of an import game shop is up to you, but saying the store unabashedly took the side of GamerGate is not controversial. They were very up front and unapologetic about courting that audience. This isn’t a “cancel RedLetterMedia” situation.

Sure. That’s fair. I’m just noting that if you do or did this is a situation where as a brand/company they absolutely took a stance on this. This isn’t a situation where woke vultures are grasping at straws because John the Warehouse guy said something on Twitter once and the company didn’t issue a press release firing him and disavowing his opinion. They actually were pro-GamerGate.

They also took stance with some import games that many people were shitting on because politics (cuffDOAX3cuff) even if they were not the target audience of this games. They were not exactly like Milo or others scumbags grifters that made that movement even more insufferable and hard to take seriously even as a harassing threat. Doesn’t help, to me, that a lot of anti-Gamergates are also scumbags and grifters.

This is why I posted that quote. :P I don't even recall much "GG" shit going on with them- they poked fun at DOAX3 not coming out in the west because of "SJWs" and sparked some minor outrage, but it ultimately meant more sales for them, lol. But whatever, who cares- it's 2020 now.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/on-being-an-ally-for-the-new-decade-racial-lgbt-ally.162496/
As we enter a new decade, I wanted to talk about Allies in relation to both racial and LGBT+ communities. In case one is unaware, an Ally is someone who supports a racial or LGBT+ group but is not a part of that community (i.e. someone who supports LGBT+/minority people but aren’t that LGBT+ identity/minority themselves. Honestly, I personally have issues with the word Ally as it implies that supporting racial/LGBT+ communities isn’t the default but since we live in a very racist/sexist/LGBT+-phobic world, I understand the need for it. The label of ally can be comforting as it lets us know that we are not alone and even if we are different, we can support one another.
However, at times, I feel like so-called allies have the potential to overstep in this regard. An ally goes from supporting a voice into overpowering it. And I feel like that can be dangerous. So I feel a need to discuss how to avoid these pitfalls as well as open discussion on the nature of Allies themselves.
As stated above, the biggest thing to avoid is to out speak members of the community when that community is being discussed. We see this in many threads where a group of people talks about their experiences with a topic and will meet resistance by others not part of that community. It is important to realize that as an ally, you do not have the same experiences as someone of another racial/LGBT+ group. For instance, I am Asian Asexual man. I do not have the experiences that women or Latino or trans folk have. That doesn’t mean I cannot empathize but it does mean that I cannot speak on the same level as members in that racial/LGBT+ group. As such, it is important to listen to members of that community and make sure their voices are heard and not drowned out.
Another thing to realize that just because you are an ally, that doesn’t mean you are part of that group. For instance, I am friends with many in the trans community. This does not make myself an authority figure of the community nor does it make me special for allying with trans folk. Sometimes I feel like people forget this.
These were the two bigs ones but this thread is mainly on Ally and making sure we go into the new decade ready to lend our voices to those facing horrible discrimination without risking accidentally silencing those voices instead.
I see this a lot here. People think they need to give their input on something simply because they are in the thread and it's a topic of interest. If you're not part of affected group, before posting,
pause
consider if your take really adds to the discussion
read the thread and check if someone actually in affected group already said something similar
if so, amplify their post instead
listen and think even when you disagree to what affected persons are saying before simply reacting to an OP

That being said...I wouldn't call someone "worse than ISIS".
They were skinning people alive.
I don't know where you got that from. I have not heard of any instances where ISIS were flaying people or if it were their general policy. They were brutal and ruthless but they generally followed some medieval principles of war.
There are also some specific examples in US military and private contractors who you can Def say were "worse than ISIS". The raping, and the war criminal types.

He obviously confused the length of that other ban they got (https://www.resetera.com/threads/sam-smith-comes-out-as-non-binary-see-staff-post-for-discussion-guidelines.140896/post-24514519).)
Hope I'm not the only one who recognizes that a group of almost exclusively white males are telling their pet blacks to watch what they say about white women. :larry

My new years resolution was simple. I opened a new art account on twitter and was to post a full drawing every single day for the rest of the year. Now, it's one hour until the end of the first day of the year and I don't have a drawing done yet, and one hour is not nearly enough time to get a drawing finished. I don't really think it's at all OK to attempt to attempt the challenge after failing the very first day to deliver. Now I'm not in the mood to draw at all. Shit sucks.
Not even one day lmao.

Annnd he got banned. Mission accomplished for Astro.
That Galactic Barret guy lost once he took the bait and tried to explain himself.
Reeee doesn't like explanations.
This is some Grade-A dogpiling.
Initially, everyone was on board with what the guy said until one of the fucktards from the supersecret discords rang the "let's ban some poor schmuck-alert" and the usual suspects sprang into action, picking out a single sentence in a series of posts that could be misinterpreted and then twisted that point to serve their purpose.
What a bunch of cunts.

seems they are going with "its real but also not real" :brain
Okay, sure, the culture part (people yelling into social media to cancel people) *is* a real thing, as is emotional trauma that the cancelled person may endure during the period. It's the actual cancellation that isn't. Yes, yes, people have been successfully cancelled (some deserved, some not) but most of the videos that come out about this (like Natalie's) are just long defenses of their behavior.

Her "cancellation" is of a different nature than someone like, say, Dave Chapelle. Her argument that, as a marginalized person, the way cancellation hurts her is not necessarily in her ability to earn a livelihood, but in alienating her from her support network a person who needs one to help her deal with the general challenges she faces in life as a trans person.
yeah, I mean, c'mon guys, what possible hardships could someone like dave chappelle have suffered in their life when compared to the immeasurable struggles of an angsty trust fund millenial who got 14/20 in a buzzfeed "SO YOU MIGHT BE NON-BINARY?" quiz

Who needs to watch a video and digest its points when you can just... go off the thumbnail...? :confused
Haven't watched the video yet so maybe it's not applicable but the thumbnail and setting is really off-putting.
She is sitting their drinking, surrounded by rubbish bags and empty bottles ect. And it just give the impression of someone down on their luck and for me at least, makes it look like she has been ravaged by the valid criticism she got for her repeated comments and actions and tries to paint her as a victim.
Again, maybe it's not applicable in the video but after hearing how she handles the main criticisms against her in the video, it doesn't give me much hope that she has really listened and understands what the problems are.

It's really based and red pilled of ResetEra LLC to put the most mentally ill cheeseburgers who may as well actually be "bad faith trolls" on full display. The sense of "clown world" on ResetEra must be unreal for normies.

i don't know if this is sarcastic or not because the number of intra-lgbtq community callout posts i've seen that rely on screenshots of private communications is pretty high (to say nothing of all the thirsty gay dudes i've seen who are perfectly fine passing around leaked nudes of male celebrities)
Seriously where are the mods in the contra thread, the wall of silence is breaking. They need to hold it back before people become comfortable with the idea of speaking the truth.

These inane "harassment is bad" posts aren't really saying much. Clouding the valid criticism in with that seems to be the primary outcome of the video, which isn't surprising when the video itself appears to do that by virtue of mixing the two messages into one output.
you ain't slick
So you're just here to play rhetorical games?
you ain't slick

people don't need to pretend to be cheeseburgers to make cheeseburgers look bad, resetera is doing a great job at promoting that public image of the most mentally ill and toxic individuals possible.
Just come out and say it lol.
yeah, just call me a distinguished black fellow, you know you want to. Call me a distinguished black fellow. That's the only reason you're here right? You hate distinguished black fellows and you want to say distinguished black fellow really badly. There's no other reason, obviously we dinduffin and we just want to be left alone, there's no valid criticism here.
-
I don't think ContraPoints was ever really in the gamergate trenches. She's probably most connected to Zoe via Lindsey Ellis, who was in the initial twitter happenings.
-
Come out and say what exactly?
now this guy, he's slick
When you focus so much more on the harassment than people's criticism of the current video which you disregard because they aren't pointing out again and again that harassment is bad, yes, yes that is exactly what you're doing
Yeah? Why do you care so much about harassment? Imagine being so intellectually disingenuous that you want end a perfectly valid discussion because some stupid bitch cried about it? You ain't slick, you just want to protect your friends and bury the truth with narratives.

That you think I'm pro harassment or whatever you're trying to do here.
Incel Spreadsheet used to run blogs that were named after specific people he hated and he wrote about why they were bad people. He'd register their full names as domain names. Kinda like the one Kiwi Farms hosts for Disney: https://jonathanDisney.org/
This was one of the main leads of how Incel was doxed.
bruh this word filter

Human beings aren’t equipped to parse critique from attack when both are happening at the same time. Expecting them to is basically asking them to wade through all the shit to address what remains. You ask them to view and address ALL the harassment just to get to something worthy of addressing.
Imagine for a moment if we had asked those attacked by Gamergate to do that, to sift through their abuse and death threats to address the reasonable people mixed into it asking questions and wanting to discuss the situation in good faith. Does that sound like a reasonable thing to ask of someone in that context? If not, why would it be OK to ask Natalie to do it? Because you bristle at the idea of treating her equitably to them? You can certainly dislike and be uncomfortable with that, but that probably shouldn’t be an excuse to dismiss the effect that kind of abuse can have on one’s ability to parse good faith critique from abuse.
I think if she wants to address criticism, only addressing those who harassed her is disingenuous. Plus some of the tweets she only half censored were from people who weren't harassing her so she clearly already has seen good faith takes and purposefully ignored them when describing the intentions of her critics
It's non-stop funny to me how these people squirm when their smoothbrain tactics get used against them, and then they fall into gamergate tropes immediately. These people are fucking paper thin shallow. Their rabid obsession with Yaniv and kids shows is a direct reflection of their intellectual capacity.

That was a fantastic video to be honest.
Her point about how leftist twitter managed to accomplish what the alt right couldn't, which was making her appear to be radioactive, no one can associate with her without getting trashed and taking a hit to their own image was really funny, until I realized how accurate it was.
great vid. hopefully this is one step in the right direction towards a more sane left that is less pathological about this cancelling bullshit

Soooo... the "something, but" clause is a deflection tactic? Its not? Make your mind up!

I mean if the options are literally kill herself or don't give a shit about any criticism ever. She probably should rethink being a media personality with a large influential platform
Well there you have it, if you're going to be bold enough to cast your opinion out into the public sphere, you should be prepared to accept criticism. You should have to address it. You should have to DEBATE ME YOU COWARD!
I agree with incel spreadsheets.

I'm pretty sure you're not trending as old as you think. ERA did age poll recently and the site is filled with mostly 30 and up guys. Makes sense. Younger people don't do forums in the age of Twitch, Instagram, Youtube, and so on. Especially ones with archaic ISP email requirements. Hilarious how they copied GAF to the tee lol.
You just care about your time and attention.
Funny thing, I mostly agree with most of ERA on progressive topics. Yes, LGBT folks should be treated with dignity, respect, and be protected from discrimination. Yes, corporations should pay taxes. Yes, police forces have to much power to intimidate minorities.
But I'm not gonna spend oodles amount of time arguing online, which basically does shit for progressive causes. The amount of time people waste on that site arguing about shades of gray and other purity tests in the progressive umbrella is mind-boggling. There are no conservatives there, so it's not like they're arguing with those with radically different views. There is no consensus building. It's either get in line or "Fuck Off!"

a refusal to educate yourself means complacency has crept in; choosing not to take a side is support for the status quo, which is currently careening at full speed toward fascism on a global scale

In February 2019, the male-only military draft registry was ruled to be unconstitutional in National Coalition for Men v. Selective Service System.[52] Following the ruling, the Selective Service's Legislative Liaison Jacob Daniels told reporters: "Things continue here at Selective Service as they have in the past, which is men between the ages of 18 and 25 are required to register with Selective Service. And at this time, until we receive guidance from either the court or from Congress, women are not required to register for Selective Service."[53]
The Selective Service System considers the term "male" in the federal law to refer to the sex observed at birth, so trans women are required to register, while trans men are not.[54] Failure to register can cause problems such as denial of Pell Grants, even when registration would not have been allowed.[55] As of 2019, the policy toward allowing service of transgender personnel in the United States military is its own subject of legal dispute. If upheld, under the ban ordered by President Donald Trump, trans women who were required to register with the Selective Service System would not be allowed to serve in the military if drafted or volunteering.

It's pretty simple. They're angry at Wynn because she had the audacity to say she prefers to be referred to as a woman instead of being asked if she'd like to be referred to as a woman. They don't like it being pointed out that trans people and non-binary people have competing interests in this respect.
-
I suppose part of the 'argument' as it is if you personally think a person should be considered individually, or what the imaginary 'group' should consider. Like others have said, I have don't have an idea what is happening and I don't know where to even start to get knowledgeable about the subject. So uh, yeah.
-
Contra quitting twitter isn't inherently that unpopular of an idea, it's the framing of it that people don't like but I truly hope she never goes back to tweets that aren't purely announcements about content or actually content. If only so we don't have to see Lindsay post about living your truth and your brand ever again.

Yeah, I mean I did get this far and again I think that's where I just decided it was best to just walk out the door as I don't even know where to begin trying to adjudicate the issue (not that I'd have any right to to begin with). I'm being completely sincere here when I say that I think the only thing for me to do is admit that I'm a boring, privileged straight person who has no business trying to enter into this debate.

Imagine being a normie, fed a vague but very insistent message that "everything is valid, don't question it, bigot". Then you're informed there was a whole war of definitions and terminology purposefully withheld from the you because it would be too complicated, and require too much discussion, revealing the fundamental flaws held within. Finally you learn that there was no census on anything, and everything was just a lie to make you not question it, and you shut the fuck up like a good NPC because you don't know what makes you a bigot anymore.
Fuck offffffffffffffffffffff

I find this a problem in a lot of left stuff, too much is personalty or brand driven. No one should be above legitimate questioning. If you become bigger than the message or think you are I think you are failing the message
Weird how this doesn't apply to ResetEra staff.
Frankly, I've long been tired of "left" youtube as a whole. Cults of personality built around opportunistic liberals complaining about them uppity minorities.
Wait didn't ResetEra have to shut down some uppity blacks talking about white women earlier this week?

I'm being completely sincere here when I say that I think the only thing for me to do is admit that I'm a boring, privileged straight person who has no business trying to enter into this debate.
That's as far as I got too.
You still get an opinion though... From a purely utilitarian point of view, he/she him/her makes it easier to identify people. People insisting on they/them pronouns leads to so much inefficiency, though I do like the equality aspect of it. Maybe gendered pronouns do lead to a way of thinking that sees men and women as "different" in a way that does not advantage gender equality.

When the Contrapoints controversy initially happened it was a point where I started to realize that I'm getting old and out of touch with some of this stuff because I couldn't make heads or tails of any of it. As someone with no stake in this that has never watched a Contrapoints video before or since this happened the correct move just seemed to be to Grandpa Simpson my way out the door.

It's pretty simple. They're angry at Wynn because she had the audacity to say she prefers to be referred to as a woman instead of being asked if she'd like to be referred to as a woman. They don't like it being pointed out that trans people and non-binary people have competing interests in this respect.

Heh, I mean to be clear I wasn't even suggesting "both sides" or anything about what a debate should look like. I was mainly just noting that I felt old because for once despite being someone who intentionally or at least incidentally was tapped into these social debates I'm finding myself ill-equipped to understand all the nuances of these conversations. I was also kind of lost recently not in understanding why people were mad at Rowling but completely lost on why all the TERF-types seemed to be from the UK and the answer was something about a UK-mommy forum and I was just puzzled as to how the fuck that happened.

I never had patience to see a Contra Points video because they are too long and I have better things to do, like playing with my waifu catgirl on my favorite MMORPG, but she seems to be a decently reasonable person and not a complete imbecile.
Being canceled by Era was just a matter of time.

Well in this scenario a "passing or semi-passing tans person" is the person of privilege; no matter how you feel about the "cancel culture" stuff that's sort of the bottom line of the complaints against Contrapoints. She literally is complaining from a place of privilege (passing trans woman) relative to the people she is complaining about (not "passing" / non-binary) and then trying to claim that them placating the less privileged is actually "less woke."
There's obvious a meta-conversation to be had about the cancel culture conversation, etc. but it seems pretty blatant that this Contarpoints lady is a huge hypocrite either way.
Ok, I think I get where a legit "side" against Natalie could come from based on what you have said. I was also unaware non-bines had it worse than passing trans. The only non-biners I know is Sam Smith and Rose Mcgowan.

It feels like only 1 year ago where threads on Era in general had more activity, with a lot more different users posting comments.
It also seems like over the past two years we've had a sharp increase in self requested bans as well, especially from longtime users from the old place. Without putting anyone on the spot, because I know everyone has their own personal reasons, it just seems strange to me with the amount of people doing it.

The "privilege" here is "people assume my gender correctly." That's it; I'm not talking about some overall "how bad people have it" thing.
It's not about assuming gender correctly, it's about whether someone wants you to assume gender, and what should be the standard.

It's not about assuming gender correctly, it's about whether someone wants you to assume gender, and what should be the standard.
It's about both. Not sure how you can proclaim it "isn't about assuming gender correctly"; she essentially made it about that in her tweets where she talks about how.. people assume her gender correctly.
But yes it's more complicated than "assuming gender correctly"; never said it wasn't.
Its not about either.
It's about the vastly disproportionate 'punishment' of targeted harassment by a twitter mob for the 'crime' of speaking an opinion.
The usual suspects want to "its actually about ethics in games journalism" the conversation because they are fucking pieces of shit that get off on that type of behaviour, as anyone who has been unfortunate to get into a 'discussion' with most of them will be able to recall.
What the actual underlying fucking opinion is doesn't actually matter. It's just the casus belli.

People age out of things, forums are largely old-hat and obsolete compared to things like discord/twitter, it's the holidays so there's not a ton of news and people got other shit to do.
That and Resetera has experienced quite a few controversies in 2019 that caused people to leave, including several prominent members (Phantom Thief, Bronson Lee, etc.)
Resetera also has a bit of a reputation on the mainstream net, which probably stymies people joining up a fair bit.

Like I said; the cancel culture conversation is separate.
Ignoring that aspect of it, I'm just discussing what Lindsay said and why it might be controversial.
But totally get you are incapable of having conversations like that, so cheers.
:confused
that's literally what the topic is about.
its the people that don't want to address their own shitty behaviour and contributions towards #cancelculture who are attempting to change the narrative to be "cancel culture doesn;t even exit, but IF IT DOES then its only because people deserve it, and I'm not saying I'm cool with harrassment BUT IF I AM its not really harrassment because I disagree with what they said, and they basically asked for it".
The creator of that videos name is Natalie, not Lindsay btw, unless you're now diverting onto yet another conversation about spillover of targetted harrassment onto people tangentially related to the original target for heresy by association :-*

Full agreement here. The most frustrating thing about the 'harassment' montage is that some of the tweets being centered are pretty anodyne, and it's also not obvious to me from what's shown that they're directed at her specifically in the first place. They mention her by name, yes, but aren't actually part of her experience unless she's actively looking for them by way of namesearching or google alerts. Most of the accounts I recognize and have followed or interacted with notably were not directing their criticisms into interactions with her.

Hello everyone! This is a huge honor and responsibility. To tell you the truth, I’m not entirely sure how to feel about all of this. That probably goes for a bunch of you as well. For years, since the site’s inception, Cerium has been a big part of the team and keeping the trains running on time. Looking at everything he’s done behind the scenes to prepare for this handover has shown me just how much trust he’s placing in me and how much the community has depended on his work, often without even realizing it. So, I would like to thank him for the vote of confidence and for keeping vigil for all this time. None of this would exist without him. If anyone deserves a break, it’s him. Thank you for everything you have done for all of us.
I wasn’t one of the launch mods, but I was brought onto the team in the first months of the site’s history. I had to be convinced by friends to accept the position. The argument that worked was that I would be able to help make sure that we rejected and banned the alt right trolls, gamergaters, and the rest of the scum of the internet. I know first hand how hard we’ve worked to keep the worst of the internet off the site, and we want to do more. We’ll never be perfect or make everyone happy, but I can promise that we’ll do the best we can. In my life, I have always tried to be a better person than I was the day before--smarter, more empathetic, more responsive to the needs of others--and I will bring that same attitude to this position. As a team we will always strive to do better each day.
Last April I helped organize a forum-wide event that resulted in a few hundred members getting tags, we’ve been calling it the Thanos event. About 1000 people signed up for a 50-50 chance at getting banned for a month and those that remained were tasked with solving puzzles for the month. Some were hilariously simple, others not so much. I’d like to think we all had a lot of fun with it and I would like to do that sort of thing more often. There have been a few members of staff that have pitched ideas for events like this and we’ll be looking to make them happen in the next year. Just fun things for members of the site to do, a reminder that we are all here to make our lives a little brighter.
Beyond that, there are other ideas for new features that we’d like to explore. Things similar in spirit to GiftBot, things that will hopefully be as big a hit and allow people to have a bit more fun with other members on the site. I won’t go into any details yet, simply because organizing development is always a challenge and there’s no telling what might happen in the future, but everyone involved in the discussions so far has been excited.
Other than the fact that I am now in charge of the running of the site, I don’t imagine much will change right away. In terms of moderation we will still give the bigots, trolls, and horrors of the internet no quarter. Anyone that knows me, either on here or in real life, knows that I’ve always fought those things as hard as I can. I will do the same as general manager. I don’t imagine that I will be perfect or get everything right on the first attempt, but I trust and love the people around me and I think that, together, we can meet and exceed your expectations.
Also, can we cut out the platform warring? It’s driving me a bit mad. New consoles are coming, they’re going to be awesome, can we just have fun?

Game journalism as a profession isn't as stable as it used to be, so I don't blame him for trying to get out when he could. I have a really bad feeling that next-gen is going to serve as the death knell for traditional games media, even moreso than this gen. Most of the big sites can only muster views in the few hundred thousands now. It seems like younger gamers don't consume traditional games media and are more likely to just watch streamers or influencers. Podcasting doesn't seem as lucrative as it used to be either. They were pushing subs hard this year. I just hope Giant Bomb and Waypoint survive as long as they can.
Nobody tell him.

Considering there wasn't enough revenue or at least revenue sharing to keep the "other owners" happy enough to stick around I doubt there's that much revenue? Either that or Cerium took a hugely disproportionate amount of shares.
They wouldn't have instantly generated the same money NeoGAF was making with the same amount of traffic; might not even be close. In it's prime NeoGAF's SEO was on point.
There's barely any expenses, so it's straight profit. And Cerium even figured out a way to prevent the user base from growing to prevent the costs from growing!

Dat B-Dubs post :neogaf
The argument that worked was that I would be able to help make sure that we rejected and banned the alt right trolls, gamergaters, and the rest of the scum of the internet. I know first hand how hard we’ve worked to keep the worst of the internet off the site, and we want to do more.
:salute
Also, can we cut out the platform warring? It’s driving me a bit mad. New consoles are coming, they’re going to be awesome, can we just have fun?

Leadership handover at the site's most unstable period, promises to further clamp down on foreign threats :neogaf
It's everything i could have asked for!

I mean compared to a normal business, sure.. but that kind of traffic requires a somewhat competent backend. Tech cost to run the site wouldn't be massive but either are ad revenues unless you also know what you are doing there. So even a moderate cost can cut into revenues as we aren't talking THAT MUCH revenue.
Costs are comparatively small anymore for hosting a forum, you just hire a decent host and it's all taken care of without any human intervention needed. He's in the high five to low six figures range pretty easily using the known data. If he wasn't already rich he'd still not have to work. I think the napkin calculation Null of KiwiFarms made for people was a bit high, and like you mentioned their SEO is actually pretty shit, but it's still a pretty easily acquired chunk of change. Especially since Cerium literally has to do nothing but make sure it's up.
I don't imagine he's making anything like Lore was for a brief period, but that didn't last long anyway. Then his forum split in half a few years later. Now that it's finally been upgraded I assume GAF doesn't cost anywhere near as much per user to run as it used to. And not just because of the split, it's not a backend kludge anymore. He's probably making some money off it again really.
-
Is that a former owner?
No, she's just doing what we all do and mocking how people were offended at how NeoGAF.com didn't pay its moderators, let alone the day-to-day admins who did things like write ModBot, and how ResetERA.com was a reset era that would start fresh and revision how moderator culture worked. Now here we are back to a forum where the admins aren't even the owner and nobody's paid but the owner and there's fifty moderators with a goal not a plan.
-
There's enough dumb shits that got EraClear(TM) and of course there's plenty of Nintendo blogs linking to ResetEra whenever they have some 'insider' news to bring in more ad revenue.
Which means that overall Cerium is probably making some good money with this thing.
-
They're using Cloudfare CDN services so I'm not sure about hosting but the Pro plan with a load balancer should come in at $25 a/month and the bigger plan $200 a month.
A VPS with near unlimited data would set you back about $20 - $50 a month tops. Because the forum doesn't require a lot of storage.
So what you're looking at is a monthly cost anywhere between $100 - $250 a month and perhaps $500 during 'peak hours' such as E3.

I think it's just on AWS?

bdubs is pretty insane to take over operations for free so cerium can sit on his ass and get paid, even if that site isn't making that much money

Cloudflare isn't a host, the domain name resolves to an Amazon server in Virginia. Lots of "hosts" that just use AWS give you Cloudflare for "free" too.

Can you really blame Cerium? He sees the writing on the walls in regards to ERA. The increasing toxicity. The constant whining from the different interest groups. The traffic slowing down.

Again I think you guys are overestimating what a simple VPS host can do with those seemingly super cheap prices. Those are usually intro prices anyways and once you start hitting a certain traffic threshold your site can't be handled by what they advertise anyways.
That's what I was thinking as well but ResetEra doesn't actually 'host' anything beyond text.
All the images and ads are linked and embedded from external sources and servers (i.e. no data use for Ree).
The only thing self hosted are the avatars, which by the time you hit 10 threads are already cached on your HDD.
I don't see anything on the site that would make their hosting expensive.

Swear to god dude STFU
Text based systems can still be incredibly costly; you are such a fucking dolt.
I'm talking about hosting. And literally the only thing you pay for with hosting is what you upload to your server, plus what the visitors of your website/forum whatever use.
if it's a bunch of avatars and pages filled with text, with very little CSS and no self-hosted images... hosting costs will be low.
Expensive shit is people streaming movies on your website or having people download/upload (large) files. But as I said, ResetEra hosts nothing of that themselves.
Especially if they use Amazon and you pay as you go, it won't be a massive investment. The footprint of a page on REE minus all the externally hosted elements is 54kb. Which is next to nothing in terms of data.

Nintex, me and riotous are disagreeing more about what the size of overall traffic actually looks like than anything you're trying to specify in detail, he thinks it's a magnitude (pop pop) higher than I do. My speculation to the profit figure is based entirely around that they're in that semi-sweet spot of traffic where your costs aren't inflating due to it.
To put it another way, riotous thinks they've been kicked up to level 3 or 4 services, I think they're managing just at the peak of level 2 and/or coming in just under level 3 often enough to where the other 11 months will pay for an E3. (Although that does raise the question of if they had any kind of E3 deluge like GAF would get. I suspect they might not have had one this year at least looking at the unique users graph.)

Jesus Christ STFU.
Every second resetera is handling thousands of web requests that then execute various code including several thousand more per-second database / cache hit queries.
The fact it's not a lot of data is irrelevant; data costs are a fraction of server costs for the vast majority of non video based web sites.
It would be interesting to know if they use a SQL or NoSQL solution. For NoSQL AWS charges $0.25 per million read request units, while for SQL it's usually charged by the 'hour'.

I'm with you on that because I don't think the particular services they need or use send up red flags at Amazon that they need to move to a higher tier.
If it's NoSQL than I'm pretty certain in fact and judging by the speed I would be surprised if it wasn't.

One thing I've noticed about nuGAF is that despite being the polar opposite of what it was, it's pretty much exactly the same. You have a group of posters with similar perspectives who gang up and infiltrate pretty much every non-gaming thread, and overwhelm any dissenting opinion by jerking each other off and shouting down anyone who dare disagree with them. And EviLore does everything he can to appease them, because the guy doesn't have any convictions. He does what he has to, to make money (and I can't really fault him for that), but damn it's funny to watch.
Remember when he banned the word "cunt" :lol and when he banned smilies :)

They way they talk about it they also don't seem to realize how it operated even during Vietnam. Making remarks about Trump or Cheney is how it operated more broadly than they imagine. Deferments and never getting called was how most people experienced it. The brief period where they were drafting old school is what taught the military that they actually hated the draft for modern warfare. Took too long to train the draftees with zero experience. Plus they remained as problems beyond that.
I'm surprised that they would be so uniformed about subjects on there.

It's a shame my morals dictate that I only punch out old ladies who call me the n-word (you know they want to) in the line at Golden Country Buffet. But seeing as how they don't let non-white, non-Catholics in the military I have nothing to worry about. Also I have severe issues with looking at phallic symbols of rape (PSR), that's my special word for stupid guns.

User Banned (3 Months): Ableist Language and Inflammatory False Equivalence Surrounding Bigotry
When you start learning writing then one of the first things you learn is never to underestimate your readers, however, that only works when your messaging is clear and doesn't allow for 2 interpretations that are both valid and contradict each other.
That is what happened in TLJ, a lot. From Luke the magnificent symbol hero to the coward failure on the other side, Rose with the levelheaded action and positive message to the crazy in love traitor kamikaze that sabotages Finn where Holdo and Luke were allowed to succeed. Kylo the badass conflicted dude that frees himself from his master to the ranting crybaby that fails at everything etc etc etc.
There is value in not describing every detail and let the audience speculate a bit, but if the audience doesn't even agree on what was going on then that is a sign of weak messaging! That's also where the blame game comes from, suddenly we have the sjwarriors using the movie as a tool to further their college intellectual agenda and on the other end the incel racists that are too dumb to get the simplest of things in a movie for kids.

There's a small halal restaurant across the street from my old capoeira gym. Me, Mestre and his family went there after class one day. One of the dudes behind the counter- we'll call him Tucker- was wildin'.
Strike 1: My company was speaking to each other in Portuguese. Tucker decided the best way to broach them was to speak condescendingly in low-level Spanish. He continued this until the teacher ordered in English.
Strike 2: It's my turn to order. Now, I've never been to a halal place. Don't know what to really order. I politely ask, "Excuse me, what's in the white sauce?" Because I hate mayonnaise by itself. Tucker had a fit with me and said "No, I'm not answering that. We're on this. Do you want chicken or beef?" Alright Tucker.
Strike 3: As we're eating, Mestre's wife begins lamenting the treatment we all got at the counter. Mestre decides to do say something and calls over the manager. My teacher asks for Tucker's name, and says "I think Tucker is having a bad day, because he's not been treating the customers right." Tucker sees this and decides- in all of Tucker's wisdom- to come over and start another fight, loudly asking "What's the problem?!"
I'm thinking to myself: "This dude must be a Viking because even the child has a few belts. All four of us about to move furniture."
Ultimately no one got killed. The manager took him in the back and had it out with him. We got an apology and comped food.
But you know Tucker has done that shit before. Why he was there to begin with is beyond me. Fuck Tucker.

ResetEra has a really shitty sysadmin so I can tell they're running off (and overpaying) of Google's cloud service. If they had their stuff properly configured, I wouldn't be able to tell this. They're not even "really" protected by CloudFlare because of their misconfiguration. It's only because no one cares that they haven't been DDoS'd and had their cloud bill run up and/or the site gets turned off because of billing limits.

Ultimately no one got killed. The manager took him in the back and had it out with him. We got an apology and comped food.
But you know Tucker has done that shit before. Why he was there to begin with is beyond me. Fuck Tucker.
Ultimately no one got killed.
Tucker most definitely spat in their food...at the very least.

Sabrina is so fucking based for loling at Cerium. lol is right. Even the admins do it for free, even when that guy who gets all the money basically steps away entirely out of a sense of social self-preservation. It's all self-running now, relying on an army of unpaid JANNIES who are paid in delicious gamergate bans. Plus now B-Dubs gets to be the fall guy when the cheeseburgers and enbies go to war.
I hope B-Dubs is ready to get the ContraPoints treatment.

Giant Bomb should have ended about a year after Ryan died. They tried to see if they could make it work without him, and it was clear they couldn't. Now it's just a money thing.

Happy new year! It's hard to believe that it's been over two years since this site was first founded. It feels like an eternity and yet it feels like no time at all. We had to put a lot together in a hurry, and today the community is thriving on a cutting edge platform with exclusive features. It's been humbling to be a part of building that and accompanying you all on this journey. However, I've been feeling burned out for a while now. 2020 is set to be a big year, and you deserve a General Manager who can put their best foot forward.
:lol :lol :lol

Jeff is a bit of comedian himself, but Ryan was a true force multiplier in the comedy-sense. After Ryan died Jeff was never as funny, never as willing to break out of his shell to make something as funny as like his child molester character. With the death of comedy, especially in the game/technology sphere Jeff doesn't even have the option to be funny anymore. Comedy is problematic. Comedy does not fit in with the culture at CBSi in 2020, or really any tech company.

They can keep chirping it like parrots, but GAF is very far from dead. Activity keeps rising. In fact, it’s getting a little too fast for my liking. All these new names and shit.
Today:

Nothing against GAF or pro-Resetera, but comments about traffic trends for both sites seems overly exaggerated. If anything, they're more or less stable for at least 6 months, with Era performing slightly worse:

I don’t need a graph to tell me activity is increasing everyday and new members are coming/old members are returning in numbers recently. Just need eyes and observational skills.

Real data is obviously more reliable than your own personal and probably biased experience, but to each his own.
Only website owners have access to their respective sites’ real analytics data.
Indeed, very true. Would you say that SimilarWeb's stats are reliable enough? They seem to be pretty well regarded from a reputation perspective.

Hello everyone! This is a huge honor and responsibility. To tell you the truth, I’m not entirely sure how to feel about all of this. That probably goes for a bunch of you as well. For years, since the site’s inception, Cerium has been a big part of the team and keeping the trains running on time.
:hmm :thinking :doge

That graph makes perfect sense for GAF. Despite posting being “up” relative to a year ago they must be steadily losing “guests.” So the forum can appear to be growing as traffic goes down.
Unban filler, lore!

Yesterday at 10:51 PM
My new years resolution was simple. I opened a new art account on twitter and was to post a full drawing every single day for the rest of the year. Now, it's one hour until the end of the first day of the year and I don't have a drawing done yet, and one hour is not nearly enough time to get a drawing finished. I don't really think it's at all OK to attempt to attempt the challenge after failing the very first day to deliver. Now I'm not in the mood to draw at all. Shit sucks.
Not even one day lmao.

Thank you, Cerium , for all your hard work in getting this site launched and getting it to where it is today (and also for putting up with me during the brief time I had the privilege to be part of the team). This place would not be here without you. Thank you for everything, and may 2020 bring you some peace and rest. 💖
Congratulations to B-Dubs for his new role. You're a good dude, and I know you'll kick ass at it. ✨
Cerium, I haven't spent as much time working closely with you as some of the other admins, but in all that time, I've seen how much you do for the site behind the scenes and how much effort you've put in to make the forum as great and welcoming as possible. Thank you so much for giving us all a home, and I hope that you get some well deserved rest.
Thanks for all you did Cerium, espeically for getting this site launched in the first place with both time and money! Sorry you're feeling burned out. Hopefully not too much of that is due to the site lol. I suspect you'll still help out in a bunch of ways we'll never know about until a decade later.

Good luck from me, B-Dubs. And thank you for your work so far. One of the mods/admins I can actually remember from the top of my head.

User Banned (permanent): inflammatory metacommentary
As a lurker who came over after Neogaf, I find myself checking the site less and less.
- The trigger happy ban policy is absurd. I get the impression users are scared to have an opinion that doesn't fit the mods agenda. This leads to nothing more than echo chamber with no real discussion to be had. Imagine in your personal life if you shut down every conversation where you disagreed with someone.
- Awful topic threads. The same posters over and over posting personal topics that are of no interest to anyone but themselves, to get a sense of validation that I assume is absent in their own lives.
- Negativity and toxicity. The constant bickering is exhausting. It feels like everyone is playing morality top trumps, trying to out do each other and be faux outraged by any slightly divisive opinion.
- I hate Trump as much as anyone, but the constant daily threads about him and his party on here are depressing. It would be nice to have a break for a bit. I swear posters get off on posting about his latest bullshit. We get it. He's a total prick.
- Opinion threads posted as fact like a BuzzFeed clickbait headline.
- Threads with people threatening to take their own lives. This is a serious topic obviously, but it seems to be the same people over and over who never take onboard any of the genuinely thoughtful and caring feedback from other posters. I know this is a complicated topic, and these people deserve and need attention and help, but I wish just they would help themselves. I feel like stepping away from Era and its negativity would probably do them some good.
It's just all so tiresome. I think I'm done with the forum, checking it out of a daily reflex doesn't add anything positive to my life tbh.
-
Permanent? For that? :lol
-
That I agree with. The "ban happiness" of this forum is way overstated IMO. There have been very few false positives. Most bans are well deserved and obvious and caught fast, the ones that are controversial have a lot more visibility. Also a bunch of people who have questionable opinions but don't want to introspect about it tend to blame how you can't even voice your opinion about something, when in reality those opinions are probably not really nice.
I think there are definitely issues with the moderation team when it comes to PC/VR threads specifically, but when it comes to social topics I think they mostly do fine (excluding the trans week fiasco)
Very few false positives.

Can you really blame Cerium? He sees the writing on the walls in regards to ERA. The increasing toxicity. The constant whining from the different interest groups. The traffic slowing down. What's the point of dealing with all that drama when you can sucker some other smuck to do it for free and cash on the peanuts the site makes?
He learned pretty quick about how forums get hijacked and become insular.

The Witcher 3 is a straight white male game's wet dream come true and I'm convinced that's a huge reason for it's success. Because that gameplay is fucking atrocious and the characters interactions are often ridiculous and immensely cringe worthy, especially when the long cast of perfectly beautiful women *hint hint* is involved.

There's a small halal restaurant across the street from my old capoeira gym. Me, Mestre and his family went there after class one day. One of the dudes behind the counter- we'll call him Tucker- was wildin'.
Strike 1: My company was speaking to each other in Portuguese. Tucker decided the best way to broach them was to speak condescendingly in low-level Spanish. He continued this until the teacher ordered in English.
Strike 2: It's my turn to order. Now, I've never been to a halal place. Don't know what to really order. I politely ask, "Excuse me, what's in the white sauce?" Because I hate mayonnaise by itself. Tucker had a fit with me and said "No, I'm not answering that. We're on this. Do you want chicken or beef?" Alright Tucker.
Strike 3: As we're eating, Mestre's wife begins lamenting the treatment we all got at the counter. Mestre decides to do say something and calls over the manager. My teacher asks for Tucker's name, and says "I think Tucker is having a bad day, because he's not been treating the customers right." Tucker sees this and decides- in all of Tucker's wisdom- to come over and start another fight, loudly asking "What's the problem?!"
I'm thinking to myself: "This dude must be a Viking because even the child has a few belts. All four of us about to move furniture."
Ultimately no one got killed. The manager took him in the back and had it out with him. We got an apology and comped food.
But you know Tucker has done that shit before. Why he was there to begin with is beyond me. Fuck Tucker.

lol, the thought of nepenthe and a family of 3 attacking a cashier with CAPOERIA and killing them is hilarious. I bet it's what nepenthe thinks or as they warm up. " My dance/fake fighting will take down Tucker. One day."

We are going through a time of women (as well as racial, sexual and gender minorities) being harassed both online and offline. It requires grass roots effort to change because this shit is embedded in our culture and by extension system of governance. Remember these recent threads:

The Sexism Problem of Overwatch and Gaming; #SpeakUp
Boxart will cure sexism

Why is it that this thread is the first time I've seen people try to argue that simply saying something harsh about but not at someone (particularly an influential person with a degree of privilege who has hurt them) is harassment?
I've seen countless posts on this forum alone saying things just as harsh about other celebrities, but nobody thought to say, for example, "wow stop saying "fuck Terry Gilliam," that post is harassment."
Is this a thing I just haven't noticed, or is it just Contra supporters clutching at this straw?

It was a multi paragraph post two minutes after the other mod post closing the thread. I don’t know anything about XenForo but if it works like old GAF a locked thread does nothing from stopping a mod from posting. It used to happen to us all the time where one person would get to work crafting an actual reply while anothe mod would take a quick glance and say “this thread sucks I’m locking it.” And when the first person submits the reply they aren’t warned that the thread is locked already.

As an atheist, I'm not in the business of growing a religion. But if I were, I would make it as socially conservative as possible. 1) We're in a second demographic transition, and liberal fertility is well below sub-replacement. 2) In the US at least, liberals are four times as likely to be non-religious as conservatives, and this difference is only growing.

Software engineering is not a joke; it's just an over-used term.
Designing systems is engineering. But designing systems is not writing code.
Writing code is more like writing prose than any possible real world engineering analogue.
Agile is also 100% diametrically opposed to pretty much every traditional aspect of real/hardware engineering.

As a guy from Poland, I can say this - Show is hated in Poland because of "black elfs", most popular meme from this show is "Driads from Brooklyn". You go on any polish movie site, forum, facebook etc. You will have hard time to find something that isin't racist or positive. Most popular opinions are that show wipe a butt with books and that diversity attack polish culture.
So take a guess why game made by bunch of polish people about polish books isin't diverse. Also add that they take funding from gov that after saying "LGBT is a attack on polish family, make poland gay free" get additional 5% in the poll and And wins election by like 30%.

My Ike just became a Lord, but that's not the point. I'm playing through the game and a lot of the plot points are still so relevant today. Whether it's the racial tensions, or Soren's speech about people rather remain ignorant as long as what the ruling class does doesn't affect their livelihood. People destroying nature or attacking the heron tribe over some false accusations.
Everything just makes me go, damn, this is exactly what's happening today. It's not like the story is ahead of its time, but it's just sad that the story still rings true today. Soren's speech applies to so much of what's happening today whether it's climate change, racism, or even war. Doesn't affect me, tough shit for those people.

Even before this tweet, the "Hamill hated TLJ" takes were always pretty disingenuous. His stories about him disliking the direction almost universally ended with him saying how much he ended up liking it by the end.
Not to mention the fact that he throws his soul into the role. Luke in TLJ, regardless of whether you agree or disagree with the creative choices, is probably the single strongest acting performance in the series.
Oh my god, they are still pretending Mark Hamill totally loved TLJ and the rest of the actors too.

A lot of my previous church friends got college degrees like me and became atheist, and they started sharing The Atheist Experience videos and they have been profound in getting me on the journey to atheism. Matt Dillahunty and Tracie Harris are my favorite, and it has been refreshing to watch them tackle hard questions head-on that were shunned or not allowed to be discussed genuinely in my previous spiritual circles. Seeing no bullshit discussion about topics like the early church history, radiocarbon dating, the morality of God, the likelihood of a god, etc are just profound for me.
...
Here are some pivotal TAE that spurred me to become an atheist:
More proof that watching half hour long YouTube videos is dangerous! Just like that Nazi bitch Cuntraphobe.

Doesn't change that the Iron Cross is not an inherently racist or nazi item in and of itself, it was around a lot longer than those ideals.
Meanings change. A variation of the swatstika existed long before Nazi Germany co-opted it, but no one will successfully defend the use of it by mentioning that bit of trivia. Anyone who sports an Iron Cross in this day and age almost certainly deserves to be side eyed.
Sooo ... the german army and several german state agencies deserve to be side eyed in your opinion because ... they might be nazis?
I mean, the confederate flag is still flown by some “state agencies” in the U.S. Do you think Germany’s government is completely free of Nazis?

The award was backdated to the birthday (10 March) of his late wife Queen Louise. Louise was the first person to receive this decoration (posthumously)
ugh, 19th century social justice warriors :donot

In 1914, a variety of very crude anti-German propaganda versions of the Iron Cross were created by the Allies, and sold to raise money for the War effort and the relief of Belgian refugees. One was inscribed "FOR KULTUR" in raised letters, another "FOR BRUTALITY"

What does context mean? How does context work? Its not an Iron Cross..... whoopedee fucking do. Its a Jerusalem Cross. Okay.....
What does the Jerusalem Cross signify? A Coat of arms for 11th Century Christian crusaders who fought during the Middle Ages. Its painted on the fucking gun of White Supremacist Jr..... (who has a mag with the picture of a jailed political opponent )
In a picture posted a few days after his White Supremacist ass daddy committed a war crime against a Middle Eastern countries leadership.
Who are you morons trying to fool? Why do you think people are stupid and will buy your bullshit?

As im typing this I’m having a really good cry. I just need some support so I’m hoping there is someone out there who can relate.
I’m queer. I’m not gay, I’m not straight, not bisexual per sé. I’ve always had girlfriends but I’m attracted to Some guys as well. I don’t think I’ll ever fall in love with a guy but I do enjoy having sex with men, and I’m attracted to some guys.
I just met this amazing bisexual woman who just turned my world upside down. We have so much fun together, we explore everything we every imagined sexually and intellectually.
The reason I’m so distraught is I met her by pure coincidence. There is no app, no specific niche for my sort.
If this doesn’t work out, I don’t know what I would do. It feels like coming out to be dating someone like her. No one knows my sexual preferences because there’s no need for anyone to know. I can pass as straight and just live my life. My family doesn’t know, neither do my friends. What do I tell them? I like to fuck guys? They will probably never see me with a guy anyways. They don’t need to know about my sexlife, but then again it’s an essential part of me.
I just feel so fucking alone. I’m overjoyed to be with her, but I can’t shake the feeling there’s no space for me in this world. People like their little holes and I don’t fit in any of them.
just sending out a signal to see if someone can relate. I’m sorry if this seems over the top, I just want to know I’m not alone I guess.

When the entire Boomer generation is dead and buried and people in their 30s right now finally step up into positions of power, and the world is even in MORE of a completely shitty situation. After hundreds of thousands of lives are lost, stock markets are in the shitter, and the average quality of life of every human on the planet is sent back to the 1700s.
THEN we can start rebuilding.
Or maybe not. Maybe everyone will be so desperate to cling on to any semblance of worth or comfort that we will plunge even further into ignorance and greed and climbing on the corpses of other people to just survive.
At this point is this even cynicism? we’ve regressed steadily over the past years, globally. We’re a dumb race full of dumb people who mock problems that are literally killing us.
World is dying. Glaciers are melting. Sea levels are rising. CO2 is increasing. Globe is getting warmer. Animal and plant species are going extinct faster and faster. No sign of slowing down.
It's game over at this point, so ride the storm and enjoy the final century or so of human civilization.
It's crazy huh. Millions of years of slow progress, then we reached a tipping point and destroyed everything in ~500.
It will be incredibly catastrophic for millions upon millions of people. Many will suffer and die from the increased droughts, floods, famine etc that climate change will bring.
We’ll all be dead before it gets that bad.
Yup, I really don't think change will come that easily when boomers are dead. Hell, I live in a street (around 24 couples or so) with almost exclusively people in their 30s and 40s and most of the families own two cars, most of them non electric, most of them seem to exchange their station cars for SUV's. Barely anyone invests in solar panels on their roofs and we're the only ones who are vegetarian.
Hell, just check how defensive many people are on this board (average generation is millenials or younger?) to keep eating meat.
Why is leaving an uninhabitable (but 'fine' and recoverable) Earth behind any excuse to just not stop fucking shit up.
Not even a century, about 30 years, if the USA doesn't collapse on its own before then from corruption and start it early. 2050s is when the temperatures in the middle east and North Africa are predicted to become too hot for human habitation. The wars and depression from that migration will destroy civilization.
If you want a real peek at what humanity thinks of its fate: everyone thought the new decade was going to bring positive changes only. Meanwhile in reality things got actively worse in under 72 hours into it
We’re doomed, it’s going to happen faster than expected
People are not going to change.
The addiction to consumption and convenience is the problem. We are all addicted to it. People are not going to give that up on their own.
It is going to have to be enforced on people and people are not going to like it.
What we need are global strikes and marches. We are way too far in the hole to tone police.
The world is in a very tough spot and it's gonna take a lot of demonstrations/strikes to get things going in the right direction. Combating climate change is going to need everyone to put in the work. We need to keep talking about climate change to educate people of what's ahead and what can be done on individual levels. Voting for the right people in charge is very very important in the coming years but we, as induviduals, should start changing today. The more people who try to "live green" in the world, the more leaders with the planet in mind should hopefully be put into power.
Getting everyone in the right mindset is half the battle, educate yourself and talk to friends and family what is going on and what the future probably will look like. Climate change is the biggest problem on Earth right now and people need to realize it. It will of course not be solved in 10 or 20 years, but we still have to keep fighting to limit the damage already done.
Start by eating less meat and try other less impactful meat/overall food, join the strikes
This is a quote from Soren in Fire Emblem. That's why I started the other thread.
Change Daein to whatever problem that we face today and it works perfectly fine.
Problem is, the near future looks bad. Real bad. Barber-surgeon-hacking-away-at-your-leg-with-no-anesthesia bad.
Nothing will ever change, just give up OP. Just look at the world right now, the 1920s was full of warmongering, far rights and facism left and right. Please tell me the difference between 1920 and 2020???

My Ike just became a Lord, but that's not the point. I'm playing through the game and a lot of the plot points are still so relevant today. Whether it's the racial tensions, or Soren's speech about people rather remain ignorant as long as what the ruling class does doesn't affect their livelihood. People destroying nature or attacking the heron tribe over some false accusations.
Everything just makes me go, damn, this is exactly what's happening today. It's not like the story is ahead of its time, but it's just sad that the story still rings true today. Soren's speech applies to so much of what's happening today whether it's climate change, racism, or even war. Doesn't affect me, tough shit for those people.

As we witnessed it's sadly a continuous occurrence in these threads, even after the whole situation with the mods and admins of the site and the change in how these threads are supposed to be moderated we still see a lot of dismissive posts. It's why I truly thank members like you Kyuuji, excelsiorlef and others who demonstrate incredible patience and a willingness to have your voices heard. Personally just reading it is immensely tiring and stressful, I can't imagine how it is for you to have to respond to stuff like that.

Really putting himself on the line here, I would imagine that there will be no information because of NDA's that have been signed, duh.
Likely:
5600XT (launches this month), ZEN 3 (to kneecap Intel, but they might keep this under wraps a bit longer), RX 5000 series enthusiast card (might wait for E3 or closer to Cyberpunk release), 4th Gen Mobile Zen.
The only PS5/XBOSEX related things could be Hardware Ray Tracing, a tech demo and/or a chart with a road map.
AMD could also repeat: "We're the vendor for this new Xbox, very excited!" to get their stocks up in case those tech investors missed the VGA's (highly likely).
Benji-Sales is really the most low effort Insider I've ever fucking seen. He's a disgrace to the guild of insiders.

As im typing this I’m having a really good cry. I just need some support so I’m hoping there is someone out there who can relate.
I’m queer. I’m not gay, I’m not straight, not bisexual per sé. I’ve always had girlfriends but I’m attracted to Some guys as well. I don’t think I’ll ever fall in love with a guy but I do enjoy having sex with men, and I’m attracted to some guys.
I just met this amazing bisexual woman who just turned my world upside down. We have so much fun together, we explore everything we every imagined sexually and intellectually.
The reason I’m so distraught is I met her by pure coincidence. There is no app, no specific niche for my sort.
If this doesn’t work out, I don’t know what I would do. It feels like coming out to be dating someone like her. No one knows my sexual preferences because there’s no need for anyone to know. I can pass as straight and just live my life. My family doesn’t know, neither do my friends. What do I tell them? I like to fuck guys? They will probably never see me with a guy anyways. They don’t need to know about my sexlife, but then again it’s an essential part of me.
I just feel so fucking alone. I’m overjoyed to be with her, but I can’t shake the feeling there’s no space for me in this world. People like their little holes and I don’t fit in any of them.
just sending out a signal to see if someone can relate. I’m sorry if this seems over the top, I just want to know I’m not alone I guess.
WHO. YOU. STICK. YOUR. DICK. IN. DOES. NOT. DEFINE. WHO. YOU. ARE.
Fuck me these people are fucking morons.
TL;DR I met an amazing person that I really like, but I didn’t meet her in a bespoke place. Please help me feel sorry for myself.
This is actually one of the more genuinely sad posts from RE. This guy is going to blow up a relationship with someone who finally makes him happy because....they didn't meet on an app for bi people? As if that is somehow related at all to him worrying about telling his family he sometimes likes to fuck guys (which, I don't know why you'd volunteer that to your family members anyway unless you're going to bring a guy home to them, otherwise it's just HEY MA THIS THING MAKES ME CUM SOMETIMES YOU SHOULD KNOW).
Yeah just shows how damaging the whole label thing is, that they feel that they have to stay 100% on their labels and have to meet people via the correct means, just by meeting someone in real life and not on an app that is catered towards people of the same type, I feel really sorry for the guy as well, but surely he shouldn't have to be like "hey family/friends, I like the man dick sometimes" just be you breh.

It's less impressive when you consider that it's like one bedroom and doesn't have a lot in it- and what's there is from Ikea. (Not that I'm hating on being a minimalist or Ikea furniture, either) I think he also said that his place costs like $500,000...Canadian. So $400,000 U.S. Not exactly "baller." The best thing about where he is are the views from the large windows- cover those up and it's not exactly anything particularly impressive- he's no Chittagong (https://www.neogaf.com/threads/show-us-your-gaming-setup-2019-edition.1470448/#post-253685396).

That depends on your goal. Some things like the view and a separate terrace for breakfast and snuggling are hard to do, same as the Kitchen but a few classy items, fresh paint and a minimalist look can go a long way to change up your living room.
I'm currently still renting so it's not really worth it to go all the way but getting halfway there should be doable. I'm getting one of those 1929 Expo/Barcelona chairs that I spotted in both Chittagong and Tabris set-ups in a few days
which is an item that easily upgrades the look of your place.
What I'm mostly impressed by is the flow between different spaces and how something as tacky as a Super Nintendo with a few cartridges looks 'classy' because of the way the items become part of the interior.
Those bois don't yet have aquarium walls or abstract art on their ceiling however so it's mostly color, placement, contrast and keeping it clean and organized that makes their places work. Although I imagine they also have very fancy bathrooms and the likes.

I take it you mean Chittagong- Tabris' place is less impressive when you consider that everything is in one single room. He wishes he had Chittagong's place- even with dude not posting on reeeee anymore, it's obvious he's still trying to copy it as best as he can. And by that, I mean copy the look of the guy who copied the look of Harvey Specter's apartment from Suits. You can even see it on Tabris' TV in the 2019 thread. :lol

https://www.resetera.com/threads/is-there-such-a-thing-as-being-too-utilitarian.163294/
Basically, whenever the issues of the world are happening, I put so much energy and care into what's going on to the point that anything else is a distraction.
Personal life? Not important. Family? Not important. Hobbies and the little joys to take in life daily? Completely irrelevant. Any minute wasted on not dedicating to the world's issues is one step closer to worsening them
Somehow I don’t believe him.
Caring about unnecessary things you have no control over is the opposite of utilitarianism...
Utilitarianism is a family of consequentialist ethical theories that promotes actions that maximize happiness and well-being for the affected individuals.

The people that are fucking don't need to say they are fucking. It's the equivalent of people in high school who said they got laid on summer vacation but she moved back with her dad, back to Canada, whatever. Hobbes never had a girlfriend, was never dominating college classes, never had any sort of job besides copy/pasting shitty reviews and trying to pass them as his own so he could get a tag on a gaming forum no actual gamer or game companies care about except to make fun of.

Upon a quick skimming. The letter I was thinking of was not the one he sent to the mother of one of his female victims. It was a letter given to his attorney about a male victim. Just :yuck
Well I don't think he was going for a disturbing look. He's just classic 1920s disturbing by nature looking lol

The only PS5/XBOSEX related things could be Hardware Ray Tracing, a tech demo and/or a chart with a road map.
AMD could also repeat: "We're the vendor for this new Xbox, very excited!" to get their stocks up in case those tech investors missed the VGA's (highly likely).

User banned (6 months): misogyny, platform warring
hopefully Ori one was just a one off. Xbox allowing their games to other platforms is equal to being a "strawberry " in the hood, fam. Dudes just come about to get a piece of ass and jet. It ain't about nothing - just a quick dip cause they know they can and they know she will. Xbox will be the "strawberry" of the gaming industry if they keep putting their games on competing platforms. They can't possibly want that kind of stigma after all the shit they've been through this gen about their 1st party IP.
Plus, they just bought a bunch of studios. That's like a strawberry changing her life, goes back to school, finds a stable job, cleans herself up, and still let's the dudes drop by to break her off proper and bounce. Shit ain't cool, my guy...
I know the metaphor is kinda extreme but thats how Microsoft appears to me by allowing their Ip's to go on competing platforms. Can't be giving up the goods because you don't know when to say, no. Fuck all that, bruv..
No offense but fuck Switch and PlayStation. They got their own games, devs etc.. Use em!

User banned (2 weeks): Hostility and inflammatory accusation against another poster + numerous previous infractions for hostility and personal attacks.
I'm sure they could've come up with something as interesting, if not moreso. There are other lessons Luke could be used to teach, as well. Like I said before, I actually love that he's insecure and overwhelmed - this is the guy that blew up the Death Star and faced down the Emperor himself and he's sitting there saying he can't be who Rey needs him to be.
Honestly if you got rid of the self-pity, the stupid "I ignited my lightsaber over my sleeping nephew" thing, the whole "the Jedi Order needs to die with me" nonsense and the way he clearly doesn't seem to care about the First Order, or what Ben has become, or what happened to Han...
If you got rid of all of that and just gave us a Luke Skywalker who is so overwhelmed by his own reputation and legend that he's terrified he can't live up to it any more, he'd be perfect. Especially if, out of nowhere, along comes a Jedi wannabe that thinks he's just going to fix everything, provide her with all the answers she's looking for and save the galaxy again before tea time.
Regardless, you say Luke spent the last thirty years setting up a Jedi Order and helping people but we know he didn't. He spent most of it searching out relics Palpatine had stolen or the the Jedi had lost then only established his own Jedi Order shortly before Ben destroyed it. It's why, in thirty years, he only trained a dozen people and we don't even know if they ever finished their training before they all died.
Your stance on mental health issues and your complete, utter ignorance of every single person who brings it up is harrowing.
I genuinely hope you never try to give a peptalk to any depressed friend who ever decides to open up to you, or that you at least manage to understand them better than your refusal to understand this fictional character who this movie more than clearly paints at depressed, to the point of suicidal tendencies.
Like, yeesh, every time I read the way you talk about Luke's depression it actually makes me angry. It's upsetting that people with a stance on mental health and depression such as yours are even allowed to post on era.

Getting tired of this clique of influential personalities so up their own ass they don’t notice they repeatedly talk down to the community they claim to be allies toward while their fan base continuously mimics that behaviour.
What makes this especially egregious in this case is that this was Hbomb picking a fight with someone with only 1000 followers and then promptly making the most disingenuous takes on what they were saying and making it clear he thinks no big creator needs to worry about the power disparity involved in something like this, in fact he has/had a tweet explicitly hand waving Contra doing so by finger pointing people in her video

The funniest part of the narrative of her being like the Nazi whisperer or something is now that its brought up in discussion for this video, it directly contradicts her claiming she isn't persuasive in the video. So which is it? Is she the chosen one meant to convert all of the Nazis to the left or is she not persuasive? How her stans can claim both are true simultaneously astounds me

Even though barely any of them are anarchists, let alone on Kropotkin's level. Contrapoints has said she isn't even a communist, for example, let alone an anarchist.

Most of Breadtube I thought started as "anti-alt-right" types, a bunch of them came out of that whole Atheist/Skeptic movement that had a few years reign. I think this was common for the "alt-right" too, but one group went right and the other left, even though their main thing was to just fight culture wars more than anything.
The "dirtbag left" are "actual" leftists (aka socdem, but some communists, tankies, etc.) who just don't agree with the PC/SJW culture war crap. (aka BOTHSIDERS as they'd make fun of Jordan Peterson and people like incelsiorlef)
-
When you say breadtube, is this like, "bread and roses" dsa shlock, or something different? Is there a quintessence I can reference?
They're basically the same as ResetERA.com's "left" prolific posters who'd never touch the Socialism OT from sphagnum. Oh sure, end capitalism, but do it by voting straight ticket Democrat. Meanwhile the important issues are fighting over Disney movies and crying about the alt-right taking over every platform they use constantly.

Ok I should have googled first, it's a kropotkin reference. The top three listed breadtubers are contrapoints, hbomberguy, and lindsayellis. Out of those names only contrapoints makes political content. The most political thing that I've seen hbomberguy do is tackle climate change and soyboy stuff... In general it's mostly culture war content. Lindsay Ellis only does film reviews. So as benji points out it seems like this is mostly just a reaction to the anti-SJW culturekampf that has infested YouTube.
PhilosophyTube* and Shaun are like two others people have tried to make me watch.
Their self-descriptions:
BreadTube is a place for the new wave of creators, journalists and artists making high-quality content that goes against the prevailing winds of the internet. Politics, History, Economics, Science, Media Analysis, Free Speech, Film Criticism, Philosophy, Anarchism - as long as it is thoughtful and well researched, it is welcome here. Why Bread? [Read the bread book] (https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/petr-kropotkin-the-conquest-of-bread)
BreadTube or LeftTube is a loose community of leftist YouTubers. "BreadTube" references anarchist writer Pyotr Kropotkin's The Conquest of BreadWikipedia's W.svg, aka the "Bread Book".[1]
BreadTube may be considered a response to the overwhelming presence of right-wing, anti-SJW and conspiratorial YouTubers that move young people through the "alt-right pipeline".[2] Their goal is not only to de-radicalize/draw young people away from those reactionary places, but also to educate progressives that moved further left

Stock would, I'm sure, tell you that I am a man attempting to take a space in public philosophy from a woman, so if you would like to make the public aware of these views without exposing them to the ignorant frameworks Stock uses to persuade, might I suggest as an alternative speaker Doctor Talia Bettcher of the University of Los Angeles, who herself has engaged with Stock's work brilliantly before. Stock would also say that she is not personally hateful towards trans and nonbinary people and that she makes a practice of using preferred pronouns and names when teaching, though as Bettcher has shown Stock's consistent metaphysical scepticism in the face of trans people's existence qua trans people (for instance, referring to trans women as "male bodied") offers an intellectual-sounding justification for doubting trans people when they tell us what gender they are, and this doubt is all too easily translatable into hostility, discriminatory laws, and violence.

She tried to defend herself, total alt-right move.

The Buck Angel whitewashing section with the you belong on kiwifarms if you look into him outing Lana Wachowski for profit
Or where it turns out she name searched herself on on an alt account, or signed out, or had someone else name search her for her, so she could post barely concealed screenshots of tweets from someone who blocked her years ago to lump that person in with her harassers to her millions of viewers?

goddammit just have Warren be your VP
That would be the worst answer to this problem.

Because if the concern is age and health, you'd ideally pair the candidate with someone young. Warren is younger than Bernie, but not by that much.

do they all just gather in a room and give everyone a heads-up for assistance whenever they make one of these concern threads or...?
It's called Discord.
Why is it that PoliGAF very clearly posts a thread with the intention of gathering 3/4 dudes and shoutdown the thread with endless replies and concern trolls?
Because the new GM approves of this behavior and the owner who nobody can remember or even knows the username of also did.
-
They literally once complained to a NeoGAF.com moderator because I kept fucking it up by going in their bait threads and derailing them when they'd bitch about them in the PoliGAF threads. (For the record, I don't think Metaphoreus was doing it intentionally until later on.)

I want to note that the forwarded complaints did not seem to indicate the PoliGAFfers grasped it, but the moderator who warned me quite clearly recognized it as he suggested that "technically it very much is trolling." :lol

I always thought it was funny when one of the Day Democrats would stay up late, sometimes drunk, and be utterly baffled by our discussing ideological shit and making obscure jokes and global references and start trying to argue seriously with everyone about the state when it was long past a meme thing even with me around at that point.
I distinctly remember one time where we wound up discussing Vietnam for some reason for hours and all the regulars started coming on and complaining about it and started posting the same polls over and over "did you guys see this!" for Senate races that were like 18 months out (and the Dems all lost) and were all upset about something McConnell said or whatever.

I was used to him and some others because they were NBA-GAF people first and acted the same exact way in there. On a better note for example, Black Mamba was one of the few who had my back about stats in NBA-GAF before it got killed, then he came back and stayed in PoliGAF as a policy pundit. Real shame about the Lakers fan thing though.
I tended to not care for people who wanted to control the discussion, for some reason I think of NYCMetsfan/APKMetsfan as like that, though it might have just been early on, usually people who were new tried to do that kind of thing.
Coincidentally, I had been scrolling past B-Dubs posts for ages, dude used to always be near the top of the thread ranking and almost none of it was worth reading.
This was pretty bad, but not as bad as Adam livestreaming whatever it was he was seeing on cable news at that very second.
Blech, a bunch of them did this.
They still do it! Only half of it is just reposting tweets from cable/politico news people.
-
I was going to reply to Dmitri Dmitriyevich's question with APKMetsfan too. :lol
-
Although I didn't particularly mind him in general, on a personal level, I didn't care for The Technomancer (?) constantly demanding I explain how I would plan a worldwide anarchic system that operated as a global state and even more so in that regard his incessant disbelief that I actually am a pacifist or even an anarchist. It was more that he'd bring this up all the time, in threads/discussions not associated with it. And it seemed solely because my answers didn't convince him, which like, your answers about the great uses of violence don't convince me either breh. And then stuff like when someone would ask something minor like what books I'd read as anarchist "primers" because they were interested in exploring it (and I even only had one "libertarian" book on the list, Kropotkin had two spots) he still used it as an opportunity to restart this argument and got accusatory when I was like "let's not do this."
Maybe I was just reading him wrong and taking it way too seriously. I once read ToxicAdam totally wrong over a decade ago too.

PoliGAF used to be more active (about things that weren't polls/elections) and more diverse in general, then after the 2012 election it sorta died off outside of the type that run PoliEra now and there was a gap that weirdos like me and foreign friends filled.
Before it got massacred I literally only went on NeoGAF.com for a number of years for NBA-GAF. (And I guess seeing what the popular threads/news on gaming-side were.) Then it was just King Of the Hill/cooking reality show threads. I have no idea why I ever wound up running with Late Night PoliGAF.
I was already over here for all my most important needs. Eventually we got likes too.

That pretty much puts an end to it. At some point some one some where will want some thing that another person has and use violence to try to take it. Without some system of laws in place there's nothing to stop that, and any system of laws will require an amount of violence for enforcement.
But his argument appears to begin and end at non-violence as a moral standpoint, to which I say: "ok great, then what?"

Edit: is the difference between libertarianism and anarcho-capitalists just courts?
Libertarians accept the state and some form of government with all the implied powers. They just want it highly limited in some manner. Some libertarians are broad enough to include something like an UBI, while others literally mean "night watchman state" to some level. There was a guy on reason.com years ago who advocated for a state that solely ran lighthouses. That was it. He could not see how anything but a government could run lighthouses. Everything else should be privatized.
edit: I should note, that this is American libertarians. It's really just a more extreme edge of liberalism.
-
Probably should fuck up
Lassiez Fa Wank Dad with this AMA type thing instead of here but just to answer the other half of the question.
I don't accept the state's claim to the legitimate monopoly on the use of violence. I'm not an anarcho-capitalist because I don't believe capitalism is inherently good or necessary. I think it's rather natural in many aspects and I will admit to not seeing many better options on the table until scarcity fades, but I wouldn't want it imposed and have no opposition to people forming say, communist collectives if they aren't forcing people into it, anarcho-capitalists don't seem to like this and will suggest wars over it sometimes.
Another thing is most popular anarcho-capitalists and their followers are all about protecting and monopolizing all things IP and well...

That said, the likelihood of civilizations from other planets finding and interacting with us or vice versa is damn near nonexistent. However, our mere existence on an individual level is the result of an infinite number of events occurring just right (from the perspective of us as individuals existing) and thus incredibly unlikely so it’s still possible if not remotely likely.

Amazing news. I always laugh at people who say there aren’t extraterrestrials. One of the most illogical positions to take.
I imagine the radio signals we emit are being picked up by whomever sent this.
Clearly yes, these friendly aliens are responding to all those radio signals we sent 400+ million years ago.
I always laugh at people who think that, in a galaxy that is 13.5 billion years old, there is any chance that intelligent life could have evolved at the same time on two separate planets.
It is far more likely that if intelligent life evolved on another planet, that it progressed to an advanced state and then died out rather than our timeline and their timeline overlapping.
I always laugh at people who think the universe is 13.5 billion years old. The age of the universe is impossible for us to know at this time since we don’t even know what constitutes the vast majority of it. :ufup
I said galaxy you :brain not universe and the latest research suggests that the Milky Way galaxy is around 13.5 billion years old.
I'll take their estimates over your :science any time.
Galaxy, universe, as far as our knowledge of either goes we know next to nothing in the grand scheme of things. All I’m saying is we don’t know what we don’t know and definitively stating something based on the tiny slice of the picture we have is silly.

Like, yeah, the kid is probably an asshole, but CNN savaged him and opened him up to all kinds of harassment, including death threats. He didn't even do anything overtly racist and probably exercised his right to be there in about as de-escalating a way as possible. Grown ass adults routinely handle that situation far worse. I thought harassment was bad... m-kay, but no... it's just more goddamned rah-rah-my-side-or-die bullshit.

Lol hydrophilic attack openly arguing with a mod for not doing enough and they are allowing it. Is Era trying to lose even more authority?
Do you think this poster was NOT being an ass about it? Especially after I had already EXPLAINED the exact point I was making and they straight up called me a liar? I try to be nice, but when people are being rude against me (calling me a liar) I tend to get a bit catty in response.
Honestly, I'm very disappointed with how you're moderating this. Someone is accusing me of lying and when I try to defend myself against such accusations you only call out me

sorry tho what in the god damn fuck
Right. In this thread and/or in the last we did have at least one person accusing Sanders critics of being antisemitic so it it was in the air. Sorry again that I misunderstood you.
I'd also like an apology for accusing me of lying after my first attempt at clarification:
assuming they had apologized here hydrophilic later would state "yeah but I had to ask for it which is almost worse than receiving no apology at all and shows an absolute lack of empathy on your part"
Please consider my previous apology as an overall blanket one for any and all misunderstandings and grievances that might have arisen from them. Cheers!
So you can't even bring yourself to explicitly apologize for calling me a liar
I find that disappointing
I hate non-apologies :/
:mindblown
non-apologies are when you say "sorry your fee fees were hurt" or never actually utter the words "I'm sorry"
literally saying you're sorry, even a blanket one for all wrongs done, is a complete apology
and what is this fucking interpretation of the sanctity of the action, is 1 (One) Apology redeemable for a free year of Disney+ or what

I understand that a lot of people are saying about Elsa accepting herself for who she is and its queer indications, but for me it's difficult to see if that was intentional from the writers.

It's not about the #2 choice being Sanders or Warren, it's that there's a sizable amount of Warren->Biden and Sanders->Biden voters, and if you take Warren out, the margins aren't going to make up the gap for Sanders, and the same is true for Warren if you take Sanders out.

Sanders also made a pledge that he would only use the DNC (alongside every other Dem candidate) in the general election and not use an alternative org, like Obama did in 2008. Our Revolution is already kneecapped in that regard.

Just log out old man ???
Fucking weirdo
He's barely said anything, but it's Pro-Playstation so he's got the Xbots angsty and the Sony Pony's treating him like a God.
He's fine, has only acted a little bit douchey about his "insider status" but man people are so childish. All he's said is that he has seen info that debunks one negative Sony related leak and that he's seen some game and it looks amazing lol
He spoke so broadly and never posted anything to back up his information. Not saying he’s lying, but pretty much every conversation went like this:
- A leak is verifiably true
- Contradicts something Klee said
- People don’t see how Klee could be telling the truth
- Klee stands by what he said without addressing the contradictory info
I really don’t get how explaining the leaks (without giving out exact figures) would jeopardize your source. Dude loved providing new info until it was inconvenient.

- A leak is verifiably true
- Contradicts something Klee said
Which leak is that? The only one I've seen is the github spec thing, which is not remotely verifiably true. It's a real thing, a real chip..no one has any idea if it's the final PS5 chip. TONS of insiders have said it's not. Like pretty much everyone in games media who bothers to pay attention and has connections.
Yes people are still having trouble wrapping their brains around how that chip could not be the PS5; I think Sony fucked up and wasted a bunch of money and had to go back to the drawing board personally. Either way Sony appears to be assuring developers that the final spec will be in the same TF range as the Xbox.
Verifiably true =/= final hardware. The leak is 100% real, but that doesn’t mean that what the final hardware will look like. Even taking this into account, Rich Leadbetter said it’s unlikely to have major revisions this close to launch. Most recent tests are from August, and final silicon will go into production in the next few months. Rich seems convinced that the final hardware will be similar, and it seems to contradict what Klee said (PS5>XSX, PS5>10TF, etc).
I haven’t really seen anyone come out and deny 9.2TF. I took Matt’s comment to mean “things can still change in the final version” but he didn’t necessarily say it was incorrect. I don’t know which other comments you’re referring to.

bad vibes thread material.
The worst thing about the smoking ban or rather a little loophole in it is that you can still smoke those half sized cigarettes that charge in the little usb thingy. They don't smell like cigs. They smell like actual farts. Sure it doesn't stay in your clothes/hair for the next 2 days after you leave the bar, but man is it annoying to smell whatever smoking offshoot that is. Guess this would also depend on the country, but this was still the case in the CZ when I was there over the holidays.

But yeah shit was wild back in the day.. hard to even fathom being somewhere that allows smoking in bars.. or restaurants. They banned that in the 90s in Seattle, remember it was still allowed in the State itself, so if you went outside the city you'd see it and I was always shocked.
It's kind of amazing to me how quickly progress has happened on this front. I was a smoker from like 2002 - 2011. I think the smoking ban in Illinois went into effect in 2008. The St. Louis ban was 2011, though St. Louis grandfathered in places like casinos and small bars that sell mostly alcohol and little food. Back in college you could smoke anywhere. Now when I'm around people that still smoke you feel like a pariah. I don't know anybody that smokes inside of their homes anymore.

When I started university in 2003 you were able to smoke inside, on the hallways. The only place where it was prohibited was the lecture hall. Absolutely crazy that they outlawed this only 10ish years ago here.

Albuquerque banned smoking in/near (withing 25ft of a doorway) gov buildings, airports, and any business that didn't make a majority income on tobacco in like 2010, which then led to a bunch of bars building mini "cigar bars" next to the regular bar...and almost all of them closed once people realized everyone smoking in a tiny ass room was disgusting. :lol

It's kind of amazing to me how quickly progress has happened on this front. I was a smoker from like 2002 - 2011. I think the smoking ban in Illinois went into effect in 2008. The St. Louis ban was 2011, though St. Louis grandfathered in places like casinos and small bars that sell mostly alcohol and little food. Back in college you could smoke anywhere. Now when I'm around people that still smoke you feel like a pariah. I don't know anybody that smokes inside of their homes anymore.
If only we could do the same with anime.
We'll get there someday. Rome wasn't built in a day.

When I started university in 2003 you were able to smoke inside, on the hallways. The only place where it was prohibited was the lecture hall. Absolutely crazy that they outlawed this only 10ish years ago here.

Not to mention this is a thread about pregnancy. And still we get nothing but toxic shitposts.

I don't have a favorite billionaire, but even if I did, I doubt they'd require me to come to their defense on a message board after people react negatively to a weird publicity stunt.

I know this may sound crazy, but hear me out. Jim is seen as an innovator within Sony and is credited with the success success of PlayStation in European regions (rightfully so). He is forward thinking and understand that console revisions are mostly about shifts in graphical fidelity and performance but that consumers long for more. We know that the PS5 is rumored to have around 2.0 ghz clock speeds. Sony chief executive officer Kenichiro Yoshida said he wanted someone to focus on growing PlayStation as an overarching platform before hiring Jim. Jim Ryan likes cars and often references GT franchise. It wasn’t a coincidence that Jim was the man chosen to usher in the PS5 and I’m sure as leading man in Europe he had lots of input on PlayStation 5. It was rumored that PS5 might be called PlayStation V rather than PS5 but made sure there was no ambiguity when he showed to logo at CES. Now Jim comes out speaking of unique features over and above the haptics RT, and the fastest storage in any consumer device ever etc. Curious that he would do that isn’t it? It isn’t normal for Jim to talk about special features during his tenure at a PlayStation but it makes sense now. Jim obviously cares for gamers abroad but part of his heart cares deeply about the European market. Europeans are more likely to ride trains than their American counterparts. This will have affected Jim’s view of PlayStation to some degree. When you put it all together him probably did the right thing going this direction.

Spoiler alert: it's never going to stop.
The toxicity is a feature, not a bug. Era is full of the most bitter, melodramatic, fragile, naive ball-bags on the internet because they've got nowhere else to go. The reason they have nowhere else to go is because they would be immediately shunned from any other rational community in the internet.

Basically Patrick beating a dead horse while accusing the developer of doing the same.
best part of the article:
In a series of tweets, however, Battlestate unequivocally answered “no.” After trying to handwave the old interview as being “misinterpreted,” Battlestate said the employee had been “reprimanded” (??) and they “always respected women in wars and military women.” In what then felt like a longwindup to say they “appreciate the feedback,” Battlestate threw a curveball and said women would appear in the game’s story, but there would be no playable women because of “game lore” and the “huge amount of work needed with animations, etc.”

Remember when the Covington Catholic High School student started the incident by harassing people, calling a black person a "coon," calling a indigenous activist a "savage," and harassing a bunch of kids by calling one of the the black kids the n-word and calling the others "dirty ass little crackers" who "give feggits rights." Then, almost a year later, members of the Covington Catholic High School shot up a kosher supermarket in an anti-Semitic attack, leading to six deaths--wait no, that was the Black Hebrew Israelites. Well, at least they didn't smirk.

Immediate apologies like this don't mean shit. Man needs a lot of education, perspective, and reflection on his actions. A true apology might mean something some weeks or months from now.
I can't keep up with these apology rules :notlikethis
Is the dude supposed to not apologize when this shit surfaces, but sit on it for months, while people are losing their shit at the audacity of him not fucking apologizing, then claim he's done a lot of reflecting (as if), and then say he's sorry, and only then it might mean something?
As if Era would ever accept any apology from anyone even for some minor shit, cancelling is permanent. Like they give a shit about reflection and education.
spoiler (click to show/hide)
Also the guy looks like a total douche, I don't blame them for not buying his apology lol.

First off: Girlfriend Review couple is cute and wholesome as fuck
Secondly: Ree is jealous that they'll never be in an actual functional relationship. I skimmed through that thread and seeing people call them alt-right pandering or whatever the hell the new phrase of the month is makes me chuckle. God damn losers.
Reee were fine - appreciative even! - with girlfriend reviews until they found out she has a boyfriend who co-writes their material.
So even though their actual behaviour is fucking identical to thirsty bitter incels, they like to pretend they have the moral high ground because they don't hate her because she won't fuck them, they hate her because she's a cracker breeder

Resetera is full of judgemental people who have a high regards of their value and think this forum is "quality".
It is cute and funny to watch.

Hes white and knew exactly what he was doing and did you see that look? That's the look of a Nazi.

Nice community you got there, B-Dubs.

He'll get killed by a drunk driver or get cancer. Don't worry.

people might look down on - say - people who watch fox news all day, and ignore the retractions to obviously false stories because they really want to believe the initial falsified report by a bad actor.
but era are totally different, and continue to hate on a literal victim of fake news, that was provably created by a bad actor, because they are super geniuses who can tell a wrong 'un just by looking.

Wouldn't it have been much better from a marketing standpoint to come out and say DLC expansion packs are coming with a good chunk of the dex cut back? (And that you don't even need the DLC to trade / Home the returning Pokemon in).
Maybe they didn't want to admit their game was unfinished, but was the backlash really worth it?

Pokémon Sun and Moon were also “unfinished”. :yeshrug
More likely is that they finally catched on in that selling a DLC expansion would be better than selling a “new” game.

I'm not an expert and don't have a convoluted hierarchical chain of command necessary to moderate a fucking videogames forum, but it seems like moderator policy saying its a-ok to shit up any thread about anyone by bringing up any perceived historical transgression they have ever made, even to the extent that they have consorted with an unperson in some fashion, leads to threads ending up exactly like that one did and actively stifle any concept of discussion.

Folks,
If you have concerns regarding this YouTube channel you are welcome to raise them, but let's do so calmly and constructively. Likewise, if you take issue with people doing so, you can do so in a constructive way and express disagreement without resorting to metacommentary (e.g. making blanket statements about cancel culture, making generalizations about other users and the forum). Let's bring this conversation down a few notches, as this is all a bit much.
Thank you.

Yes, but they solve that by not allowing people to bring up historical transgressions if the thread starter is a prominent member, like incel. That way, only topics about people who deserve it gets derailed.

Messofanego helpfully points out the mod post.
No, the defenders of Girlfriend Reviews channel in this thread are all the ones going on about the myth of "cancel culture" by critics, that suddenly critics are "cancelling" this channel. That's the example where this video is relevant. It's a disingenuous, hyperbolic, and inaccurate strawman. There is so much mention of it that now there is a staff post.

Even if the hard intelligence backs up that the plane was shot down by a missile, I'm not even going to jump to the conclusion that it was Iran that did it. Especially if the US was tipped off that Iran's calculated reprisal attack would be happening later that evening.

People trying to turn this into west vs iran politics are not being good faith. There were supposedly 22 planes that went across iran during this stand off without incident. One got attacked accidentally
"They only blew one commercial airliner out of the sky, out of 22. It's not that bad!"
America deserves criticism.
But yeah, people sometimes get pretty carried away to the point of backing insane stances just to be contrary to the American stance for contrarianhood sake.

"studies show that fat shaming makes fat people less healthy and is linked to weight gain"
:mindblown
then what's the solution?
picture a world without any fat shaming
all magazines are full of plus sized models and nobody leaves any comments anywhere calling them ugly, everyone says they're beautiful and rockin that bod
no studies are published which say weight loss is a good thing, no one tries to tell anyone to lose weight anymore
accommodations are made on a global scale, fat people don't have to buy two seats on an airplane, the seats are just big enough and nobody glares at them
in this utopia where they are made to feel perfectly accepted and comfortable and welcome, they're just going to naturally become healthier and lose weight on their own? they're going to order smaller portion sizes and hit the gym just for no reason at all, in the absence of any commentary that losing weight is preferable?
-
Maybe it would accelerate population decline due to earlier/more frequent deaths due to being obese.
-
Why should they have to lose weight if they are perfectly healthy?

As a former fatty, here are some key points as to why I changed:
My doctor told me I was close to being pre diabetic and my high blood pressure would get worse
I was made fun of my entire life up until that point
Had extremely low self esteem because I looked like shit, didn't fit into clothes often and thought people were always staring at me (they were)
My family made an effort to say something every now and then
-
But anyone who thinks doctors should stop bothering them about their weight is an idiot.
if you try to argue this and say those doctors aren't fat shaming and are just dispensing good advice, well you're not a doctor and now you're essentially dispensing the same advice, which would make you a fat shamer
there is no non-shaming basis that anyone from outside the medical community can defend the science
not being disingenuous about this, if you're operating on the basis that only drs and educators get to say obesity is bad, and someone comes to you complaining that their dr said they need to lose weight, I don't see a way to even delicately tell them it's a good idea to listen to their dr without being considered a fat shamer

not fitting into clothes and assuming everyone was looking at my fatness was the same reason i decided to get serious about losing weight too. just looking at myself in the mirror was upsetting enough that i had to do something.
most of my family never said anything but i remember my grandfather saw me one day and just said "wow you're huge, gotta do something about that" :lol

I wrote up a post about this with some thoughts in that Lizzo thread. Boils down to the idea:
Being fat is a physical health problem.
Being ashamed of being fat can be a mental health problem.
We can help people with the first without contributing unduly to the second aspect. And what those studies are saying is that second aspect doesn't actually motivate more people to get skinny, and in fact on average contributes to their weight. But anyone who thinks doctors should stop bothering them about their weight is an idiot.

Then again, what did I expect? The site's very name is a Chan reference.
(Neo = New. Reverse 'GAF.' ...Surprise!)
It's like GAF and ERA are competing to see who can radicalize the fastest, but in opposite directions.
Categorically wrong.
New Gaming Age Forums.
Because it's impossible that something have a double meaning, right?
Your last three posts don't have any attempt at conversation in them. They insult the forum, or intentionally misrepresent what other posters have said.
I'm not sure I understand your idea of "conversation" then, because you're acting as though asking questions and attempting to have people explain their thought processes around issues is somehow unfair. I'd argue that it's the users who go out of their way to not engage with any of the topics at hand that aren't making "any attempt at conversation." Additionally, I'm worried by how you get offended at the thought that someone is "insulting the forum." It's probably not healthy to use an online discussion forum as your identity. (Or your sole source of news, for that matter.)
-
It must be super convenient to live in a world where anyone who asks questions and expects answers doesn't "deserve" conversation.
What are you even doing on the political section of a message board if you're completely unwilling to engage with any viewpoint you don't already agree with?
I'm pretty sure GAF comes from Gaming-Age. A website that still exists and has been around since the 90s (http://'https://gaming-age.com/'). 4chan was started in 2003.
'Neo' is a reference to the fact when the forum went independent and [USER=4]@EviLore[/USER] basically assumed new ownership which was around 2006 I think.
Right, and that's all common knowledge.
It's a fun coincidence that years after 4chan popped up this board rebranded in such a specific way, though.
It's not my fault if the only voice people know how to read opinions they disagree with in is hysterical shrieking.
It's a pretty simple question: "What would you try to help fix the problem that you're constantly complaining about?"
Nobody is willing to even attempt to answer, instead acting outraged that they're being questioned at all.
What exactly do you people envision as the point of a political discussion forum if it's not - to some degree - for people to "show up and argue?"
That's what political discourse is.
It's baffling. I'm the coward for taking it on the chin and persisting in waiting for an answer to what I thought was the discussion topic.
I'm the one that's too offensive and combative to "deserve" conversation while just in the source of this thread I've been laughed at, told to eat shit, called "scum," etc.
That's why I say this place is just the mirror of ERA.
ERA stamps out "disagreeable speech" with moderation action that prevents you from returning. GAF crowdsources, dogpiling until the "other" doesn't want to.

I work in a restaurant since I was 22. I don't like the job too much, it's stressful and talking almost every single day with hundreds and hundreds of different people is more alienating than it seems.
There's only one precise reason I haven't quit yet outside of a good pay, and it's the pleasure I feel cleaning the bathroom stalls.
We have a special curry-based dish which is absolutely outstanding but brings anyone who decides to eat it to inevitably eject very odorous excrements almost every single time. The "I cannot wait to sit on the throne to expel this" type. Most of the time, they cannot resist the urge.
We sanityze the services every half an hour circa, and all my colleagues love me because during my shift I always volunteer to do it even if it's not part of my duty in that particular moment.
They take it as a kindness gesture, but they have no idea that it's actually an excuse to unleash the self-diagnosed paraphilia I have for the penetrating yet cozy smell the human body is capable to release.
I've read somewhere that in those incredible occasions we inhale miasma originated from some creature's defecation, your nose is actually breathing miniscule, imperceptible particles of, well, shit.
Being aware that through my respiratory system I am in fact ingesting human feces for some reason turns me on.
I don't feel the same thing for the mainstream, vulgar scent of urination, nor for the extreme, suffocating stench of not digested, retched food.
My appreciation derives exclusively from that which escapes the ass, the most ridiculous yet fascinating human appendice.
As I said, having worked for years in the same restaurant, in some rare, beautiful occasions I have become capable of recognizing the culprit of certain olfaction masterpieces, and of course knowing the origin, the source of such works of art can add or detract pleasure from my "masturbatory sessions", as I call them.
One evening the author was this gorgeous woman: she didn't show her age at all but she was around 50 years old, elegant even if a little supercilious, in a striking but not kitsch dress.
Well, the baby she laid in the stall lacked a certain "fullness", and from the remains which survived the flush I guessed that it probably was born ill, since the color tended more on the yellow/green side of the spectrum instead than the classic brown.
The smell, though.
I could spend hours explaining to you the overwhelming joy opening the door of the female bathroom that night.
It was like I could swim inside it, merging indefinitely to its molecules, transcending myself the divine.
I stayed there seven minutes to savor it, justifying myself to the collegues with trival motivations. It doesn't matter.
I have captured that woman's essence in a small glass vial I always bring with me in case this kind of discovery happens. While catching it, I remember I couldn't wait to go back home and finally reach the climax.
It is not simple masturbation mind you, my technique is closer to tantric sex, or even a seance.
Anyway, I exit the bog completely euphoric, and my glance crosses path with the neo-mother's one. Her embarassment was palpable, and for sure smiling to her in a proud manner didn't help getting any tips. I swear there was no malice in that act, it was a sincere compliment mixed with an honest surprise.
I admit I appreciate more a woman's evacuation to the one of a man's. Or, as I like to call them, anal ejaculations.
With time I have become an expert: I can easily deduce based on color, form, compactness and quantity the sex and age of the maker of what I find. I reduced my possibility of mistake to a max of 5 years or so, I'm not joking.
It is not coprophagia.
I see chewing and ingurgitating what a man expels as a vile, and also redundant practice. No, my affection is solely limited to the sense of smell, which we are used to underestimate but it's capable of powerful mnemonic experiences.
I still remember with teary eyes that time I realized my friend Bernard, who went to France for a few years for job related reasons, was back in my restaurant where he is a usual customer.
An inveterate chainsmoker and red wine enthusiast, his feces are basically a digital print: one swollen, leonine deuce, sorrounded by a crown of intestinal crumbs caused by an almost decayed liver.
I exited the stall happy like a kid seeing his father coming back from home, and I embraced him. He's very fat, and I can tell that he has trouble cleaning himself up. He still reeked of that mesmerizing odor.

There is a recent movie called Aniara about a massive cruise line/ transport ship meant to deliver people from earth to mars. It goes off course and one of the comforts people aboard have is a holographic AI machine that shows them pleasant images.

What is the end game of insisting of talking about Iran in super harsh terms and demanding "disgust and condemnation" if not conflict?
Seriously, help me here.
And I think we should not pretend that we're bombing them because we're worried about the poor suffering Iranian people. America did nothing but fuck with Iran and I'm pretty damn sure the poor suffering Iranian people don't like getting sanctioned and wouldn't like getting bombed.
In the Iraq war we also pretended we were doing it because of the suffering Iranian people who would greet as liberators. I really really feel like we're replaying the same movie and doing the same mistakes.

Also, I don't think I've ever heard the phrase "laying pipe" used in a non-sexist fashion. It's basically a PG version of saying a man is "fucking a woman", which is usually sexist, as opposed to "having sex with a woman."

If a moderator is to be able to participate in discussions and post things I (and others here) fundamentally can't agree on, it would be nice if the Ignore function could be used against them (barring Threadmarks, etc). Unless they speak on the behalf of the entire team, which I sure as hell hope not.

My girlfriend told me this story a while ago that she had a bad experience in a most pit once. She's fairly small, and got shoved around more than she was comfortable with, had her glasses broken, and got a small cut on her face. This was over 10 years ago. She said she never wanted to go into a pit again. after that experience. She told it to me with the tone of a funny story; I didn't think too much of it.
Recently I saw that two of my favorite pop punk/emo bands were playing a show in town and asked her if she wanted to go. I didn't put any pressure on her, just a casual conversation about it. She agreed immediately. The show was very crowded and got a bit rowdy (nothing out of the ordinary for a typical rock show), but I made sure we stayed near the back and well out of the pit. At some point during the 2nd band's set we got separated. Since a bunch of people were pushing forward and trying to get to the front, I just figured that we just got separated and we'd reunite once the set was finished. Again, this was a very crowded and dark venue, so not easy to look around or move.
It turns out she darted out of the show and waited outside because she was uncomfortable with the situation. When I found her outside after, she had tears streaming down her face and and started screaming at me. She called me a "fucking selfish asshole". for not caring about her and not wondering where she was. She asked sarcastically if I had enjoyed myself then gave me a few more choice words as people stared. She then stormed off.
Had she communicated that this was a situation that could have made her uncomfortable I absolutely wouldn't have gone to the show. At the show, had she said something to me before leaving or sent me a text, I would have absolutely would have left to go be with her. Apparently losing track of her at a rowdy, rock show was grounds for a public dressing down.
Like there's no way I'm in the wrong here, right? This just feels so insane to me I almost can't wrap my head around it.

At some point during the 2nd band's set we got separated. Since a bunch of people were pushing forward and trying to get to the front, I just figured that we just got separated and we'd reunite once the set was finished. Again, this was a very crowded and dark venue, so not easy to look around or move.
It turns out she darted out of the show and waited outside because she was uncomfortable with the situation. When I found her outside after, she had tears streaming down her face and and started screaming at me. She called me a "fucking selfish asshole". for not caring about her and not wondering where she was. She asked sarcastically if I had enjoyed myself then gave me a few more choice words as people stared. She then stormed off.
Had she communicated that this was a situation that could have made her uncomfortable I absolutely wouldn't have gone to the show. At the show, had she said something to me before leaving or sent me a text, I would have absolutely would have left to go be with her. Apparently losing track of her at a rowdy, rock show was grounds for a public dressing down.
Like there's no way I'm in the wrong here, right? This just feels so insane to me I almost can't wrap my head around it.

My girlfriend told me this story a while ago that she had a bad experience in a most pit once. She's fairly small, and got shoved around more than she was comfortable with, had her glasses broken, and got a small cut on her face. This was over 10 years ago. She said she never wanted to go into a pit again. after that experience. She told it to me with the tone of a funny story; I didn't think too much of it.

the principle that the ACLU operates under is the concept that certain liberties are considered universal rights, and that everyone should benefit from them equally, not just the people or causes you happen to like anyway

Forums are dying, also RE and GAF are looney bins. Even before that era thread about it I've noticed no new posters ever show up, it's the same people over and over. While GAF, well, it's where you go if you can tolerate JordanN.
I did spend time on various vidya forums as a kid. Forums nostalgia has me stick around a bit like here.
Reddit is a massive content hub but I can't stand the circlejerk of actual posting. 4chan is best for shitposting, can have a thread argument and take all sides of the argument due to anonymity to keep stoking people :aah

Yeah GAF is doing great and REE is barely holding it together.
GAF has a whopping 250 users online, whereas poor REE only has 3,000. That's only 1100% difference.

He's saying civil rights are laws that protect against discrimination whereas civil liberties are universal rights guaranteed by the constitution. Civil rights can't be universal - they're laws that target specific minorities in order to approximate universal values.
There's also the fact that civil rights and liberties are relational to states or pre-state formations, of which there are presently quite a great many.

This thread is like watching an AI trying to figure out a new algorithm.
Edit:
Yes.
However, you don't suddenly sprout a mindset you did not have (unless there is some other kind of mental issue at play).
You could unfairly chastise someone when you didn't mean to. You're not going to suddenly use a racial slur unless that word is something you would normally use or think.
There was an interesting article from a black female psychologist who works with the mentally ill that floated around when Joker came out.
But she was basically saying that some people who say racist things when in a mania or episode are saying them because they know they are painful and hurtful things, because they think In that moment that the words will help whatever they are trying to accomplish, not because they believe them.
You might want to dig it up, it was an interesting read to say the least.
Curious. Why did you aim that post at my comment?

This from the forum full of emotional basket cases who can barely buy milk at the store without having a panic attack and calling everyone a racist. There is so much :science that shows how the autistic, anxiety issue prone, schizophrenic, Tourettes, drug using or alcoholic, or just mentally disturbed have intrusive and transgressive thoughts that are polar opposites of what they believe.
They demand so much "acceptance" of their own personal mental issues but disregard the concept if a literally crazy person likes Trump. They know what they did, not slick, etc.
I pray that a James Gunn figure gets black out drunk and screams his hatred for Mongolians so we can hear Era defend him.

it prides itself in being a safe space from the toxic personalities that now crowd the gaming community. They welcome all races and creeds, boasting of their liberalism and how committed they are in fostering an inclusive environment that is free of hate. Though, in reality, it’s a rigid community of liberal white racists - heavily leaning into LGBT - and an approved group of black bootlickers. Independent thought is not just frowned upon, but strictly forbidden, especially if you are a straight black male.

Except shipping is let's be honest inherently a sex contest.
His joke was in the context of his "ship" having a better chance of winning than Kylo's because you know what happened to Kylo.
You can't divorce this from the context of it's about fucking shipping which is 99% about sex.
I don't even know what this means. It might be correct instead of mind numbingly strange.

I’m a gamer, finding their forum a better than average curator of breaking news. But, I usually go there for liberal cac tears. Trolling them is fun, especially when the topic of discussion is a black celebrity who dared to think for himself. I’ve had multiple accounts permanently banned for defending black celebrities who come under fire from liberal cacs and their black LGBT bootlickers: I’ve said Michael Jackson is innocent, OJ didn’t kill Nicole Simpson, Kevin Hart has a right to not want his son to be gay, and Dave Chapelle’s joke about transsexuals was funny. I love exposing liberal cac hypocrisy and making their approved black friends uncomfortable. :mjgrin:

First, obese people, by a landslide, will never wish obesity and fatness on anybody. I wouldn't wish it even on my worst enemy, considering how much I suffered under systemic fatphobia. How much it made me wanna kill myself over and over and over again throughout my life.
Is being fat a requirement of being a forum moderator?

You can only blame yourself for being fat. I got tired of being fat, i got tired of feeling like shit, all the health problems caused by obesity are fucking endless. The whole fat acceptance movement is super toxic. I totally get that it's wrong to discriminate and all that, but the whole 'being fat is actually healthy' mindset is super dangerous.
I changed my life around, i changed everything.
140 pounds lost as of today. I feel like a fucking superhero now. So much energy, so much stamina. Everything is better.
But yeah.. it's very hard. It's a total mindset change. Also it's critical to have your doctor and specialists involved, too many people end up listening to internet bozos and they end up fucking up their liver, eyes, etc.

Fat acceptance is terrible. I've lost and kept it off.
The biggest issue is our food ecosystem. It's crap everywhere, so you need to develop new habits--shopping, cooking, ending mindless snacking. But you're skating uphill at first.
And it takes times.

This is quite the way to start the New Year. Fledgling Overwatch YouTuber SVB is normally known for tutorials and mechanics videos, but out of nowhere decided to drop a video concerning sexism in Overwatch and gaming as a whole. To anyone who is remotely aware of the issue these are not new developments, although you might be interested in the statistics he brings out to entertain the arguments of those who are either ignorant or malicious. Further points go his ability to connect the dots and make a basic intersectional argument, that the act of creating safer spaces for women will de facto create spaces that are safer for men who do not conform to traditionally masculine stereotypes, such as less competitive or more soft-spoken individuals, and LGBT men, who face harassment from a similar well of misogyny.
But the main reason I wanted to highlight this video and why I think it's important is that, by naturally consulting women on the issue, has come to the conclusion that the first and most basic step anyone can do to begin fostering a better community is to simply speak up. I have been a target of both racist and sexist bullshit, as well as intervened on similar occasions where it was another team mate in the hot set. Subsequently I have shouted this to the official Overwatch community proper until I was blue in the face: muting, blocking, and reporting- going through rote channels of contact- does nothing to stem the tide of an issue that is culturally systemic and thus tacitly approved of by the community and even the company at large. Instead, the solution must come from the community itself, and part of a community's toolkit is ostracization. Calling out these players and simultaneously allowing the victims to let them know you're on their side is vital in actually cleaning house and changing the perception that gaming is a space that is only for straight white men.
It is particularly ironic and thus more necessary in games like Overwatch and games like Apex Legends that have followed in the footsteps of its culturally diverse hero format, where the point is that the mix of backgrounds and hero kits is inherently inclusive to a player base of different people. These should be the last games these people are playing, and yet the majority of the reason they are here is because they receive direct or implicit approval of their behavior from the community at large, and it's ridiculous.
So, if you needed a New Year's resolution, here is one to try: If you play online video games with voice chat, and you happen to be put on a team with a sexist asshole, speak up. Denounce the behavior, and reassure the target of the harassment. Let's vow to have a gaming community where the problem element are the assholes and they're the ones who have to mute their mics, not women who simply wanted to have a good time after a long day.

She probably went for an automatic, which increases the price another $2K. Only the SV and SR trims (The top two trims) have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If I had to guess, she probably got talked into the highest trim possible because it's a nicer version of the car, has more safety features and has 'resale value' even though it's a Nissan which eat appreciation values. I'm not even saying that's a wrong choice if you know what you're buying, but the highest trim level puts her over $20k when taxes are added before the interest payments.
Edit: Looks like she did go for the higher trim because the manual and S automatic uses 195 for wheels, and the SV and SR trims uses 205's.

If you're not a car person and don't care what you drive, a new car is a new car. She went from a Lexus ES 350 to a Nissan Versa. Even if the Lexus was 20 years old, the Lexus was still a nicer car unless she just fucked that shit up with no maintenance, smoked, ate in it daily, etc. Nissan actually tried to upscale the Versa a bit and made a nicer car when they released the new version and that's still a big downgrade in terms of size, comfort, etc.
TL:DR: New beat affordability.

A Lexus is just a "nice" Toyota.

That's not what I meant- Maybe something has changed, but the Versa isn't supposed to be that great of a car IIRC- have had them as rentals before and.... :yuck It's not on best compact car lists and is known for being one of the cheapest new cars you can buy. Something that doesn't really mean much if you go for the higher-end models. So for that price, you can get something ranked better and with better reliability ratings.
EDIT: Looks like the 2020 model is better. But there's still better cars available in that price range.

I agree with everything you said. If I was in a market for a new subcompact car, I'd go for a Fit or Madza 2(marketed as a Toyota Yaris in the U.S.) before the Versa. But if the dealership is a Nissan dealership, that's the connection her stepdad had I guess. She still got mega screwed over because her step dad didn't protect her from a fucked up deal.

There was the September 2018 Direct where I was doing a shift for my College Bookstore at the time and I was getting so antsy about getting off in time to eat and drive to home in time for the Direct that I legitimately stressed myself out and didn't feel good.
Another was the Mario Maker Direct where I had 1 hour to get home from my college but I had to take a bus ride and a 2 mile walk. So after I got off the bus I basically jogged/fast walked to get home in under 40 minutes to make it

I still don't have Disney+ and probably won't until they fix the Simpsons aspect ratio. I share family Netflix and Amazon accounts and that's it.

I mean you can show crime and risque edgy things without Being sexist or going so far as Rape which years past might be the shocking thing to do nice to see they are aging up the right things like i am sure GTA6 will not get rid of prostitutes as its a thing thats been series wide but maybe make it where you cannot actually visit them on the street or make it like you have to visit actually escorts and make it like a date thing. Like how one would take an actual escort out on a date.

I mean you can show crime and risque edgy things without Being sexist or going so far as Rape which years past might be the shocking thing to do nice to see they are aging up the right things like i am sure GTA6 will not get rid of prostitutes as its a thing thats been series wide but maybe make it where you cannot actually visit them on the street or make it like you have to visit actually escorts and make it like a date thing. Like how one would take an actual escort out on a date.

They should just make it so every voter has to nominate 1 person from every demographic.

Then move onto to sexual orientation next.

I guess I have a couple of crazy Nintendo fan moments when it came to Directs.
There was the September 2018 Direct where I was doing a shift for my College Bookstore at the time and I was getting so antsy about getting off in time to eat and drive to home in time for the Direct that I legitimately stressed myself out and didn't feel good.
Another was the Mario Maker Direct where I had 1 hour to get home from my college but I had to take a bus ride and a 2 mile walk. So after I got off the bus I basically jogged/fast walked to get home in under 40 minutes to make it

Whether you believe Sanders said this also rests on whether you believe Warren would hear a sexist comment like this and not only decline to disclose it but also publicly praise the character of the person who made it for over a year.
She wanted to win over his supporters so of course she didn't criticize him. Given her tack to the center on health care and talk about the importance of unity lately, it appears she has given up on that.

Behold the majestic of the suffering artist JigglesBunny:
Climax, The Last Black Man in San Fransisco, Midsommar, The Farewell, The Lighthouse, Waves, In Fabric and Uncut Gems are all 1,000% more deserving of nominations than stuff like Joker in every category that it’s nominated for and they got absolutely nothing.
As a filmmaker and screenwriter, my childhood dream was always writing and directing something and winning an Oscar. Nowadays, I know that The Academy’s opinions are worthless and these awards have no connection to the value of the art that is or is not nominated. It’s the hearts and minds of viewers that matter and a nominee list this terrible in every regard is proof that award shows aren’t a barometer for quality or worth. Safe to say that I can take comfort in knowing that I will never win an Oscar and yet, I will always be one hell of an artist and so are all of the fantastic artists who were robbed here.

This is fun to be honest. Like, if you got time to wait on a spot, you got time to walk from a further one.
Maybe if you live in a shithole countries that may be the case, but in 99% of America that matters parking spaces have a tendency to be packed to capacity. The person waiting is usually being diplomatic and willing to drop a few minutes for a guaranteed spot rather than spin around in the chaos of roaming cars in tight corners.
If you want to waste time out of your life just to spite someone "taking what's yours" (in this case an unneeded space to park vs valued space to park) it's the type of ape brain 20 iq masturbatory powerplay that Reddit Alphas engage in.

quick and dirty maths on a Nissan Versa
Total Loan Amount $14,700.00
Sale Tax $1,029.00
Upfront Payment $1,329.00
Total of 84 Loan Payments
$18,636.44
Total Loan Interest $3,936.44
Total Cost (price, interest, tax, fees) $19,965.44
:neogaf :gladbron :heh
She probably went for an automatic, which increases the price another $2K. Only the SV and SR trims (The top two trims) have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If I had to guess, she probably got talked into the highest trim possible because it's a nicer version of the car, has more safety features and has 'resale value' even though it's a Nissan which eat appreciation values. I'm not even saying that's a wrong choice if you know what you're buying, but the highest trim level puts her over $20k when taxes are added before the interest payments.
Edit: Looks like she did go for the higher trim because the manual and S automatic uses 195 for wheels, and the SV and SR trims uses 205's.
https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/cars/versa-sedan/build-price.html#configure/A/version
https://www.resetera.com/threads/i-just-bought-my-first-car-today.153138/
Why would she buy this car for that price? Should have just gotten a Fit or something.
If you're not a car person and don't care what you drive, a new car is a new car. She went from a Lexus ES 350 to a Nissan Versa. Even if the Lexus was 20 years old, the Lexus was still a nicer car unless she just fucked that shit up with no maintenance, smoked, ate in it daily, etc. Nissan actually tried to upscale the Versa a bit and made a nicer car when they released the new version and that's still a big downgrade in terms of size, comfort, etc.
TL:DR: New beat affordability.
That's not what I meant- Maybe something has changed, but the Versa isn't supposed to be that great of a car IIRC- have had them as rentals before and.... :yuck It's not on best compact car lists and is known for being one of the cheapest new cars you can buy. Something that doesn't really mean much if you go for the higher-end models. So for that price, you can get something ranked better and with better reliability ratings.
EDIT: Looks like the 2020 model is better. But there's still better cars available in that price range.
I agree with everything you said. If I was in a market for a new subcompact car, I'd go for a Fit or Madza 2(marketed as a Toyota Yaris in the U.S.) before the Versa. But if the dealership is a Nissan dealership, that's the connection her stepdad had I guess. She still got mega screwed over because her step dad didn't protect her from a fucked up deal.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOpPLBU5pUg
Actually, the car reviewed here is a classic example of why I think high trim subcompacts suck.
The base versa is $3000 cheaper than the base Sentra, and at that level, the versa has a market position.
The Versa is $22,270 loaded up. At that price, you can get yourself a mid trim Sentra. And if you listen to the review, a top trim versa is still just a tin can with lipstick on. It's a buzzy tin can with a tiny engine, no NVH insulation, and a really slow powertrain. Not to mention compacts have inherent advantages in wheelbase and leg room.
The base versa makes sense because you buy it if you can't afford a Sentra. The top trim versa doesn't, because for that price, a mid trim Sentra is better in every way
https://www.reddit.com/r/cars/comments/eo5dfx/savagegeese_2020_nissan_versa/fe8spnd/
but at the same time a base Jetta or Civic are still cheaper.
Jetta S
: $18,745
Civic LX
: $20,650
Versa S
: $14,730
Versa SR
: $18,720 (+300 for smart cruise and heated front seats)
So the Versa SR seems to be cheaper than base Civic for sure, and about the same as the base Jetta.
I do really like the Civic but the price gap is there, and that's without counting Nissan's frequent discounts. On the other hand that doesn't mean the Versa is necessarily a good buy.
https://www.reddit.com/r/cars/comments/eo5dfx/savagegeese_2020_nissan_versa/fe985dw/
TL:DR With the interest payments over 7 years, Neph is going to pay close to $30K for a Nissan Versa.

If somebody has millions of dollars and is white and straight, consider subbing to somebody less privileged. Milkshake ducks everywhere. If you want to pretend that straight white social media celebs aren't insanely likely to turn out as fucking Nazis, enjoy your beliefs."

Nekro:I think people are obsessed with politics in video games tbh. I have no idea if death stranding is about trump and whatever but this kinda of stuff is what turn discussions from a game and its mechanics to a shitty discussion about politics and personal beliefs.
Also art is subjective, anyone can interpret it however they want. Some will see trump and brexit, some other will see something else entirely. If not then its not art and its a statement. I like to see games as art.
NoName999: You really think art can't be political? Whatever helps you sleep at night two year old with only 40 posts and it's totally not a burner account.

What a joke.
How can you even meaningfully discuss video games in 2020 whilst banning discussing politics, economics and sexuality?!?!? Themes which are deeply embedded in many aspects of the cultural medium.
Does no guns mean that there's no discussion of FPS games?
lol how can you talk about any AAA game then? they all have guns.
So no talking about games then, because games are all of these things.
So no talking about games with guns, religion, sexuality, abortion, politics or economic themes in it? Thats a lot of games.
as if there was no difference between talking about your favorite gun in borderlands vs. asking people for real life recommendations on a piece ::)
the kind of situation where era would point at a discussion and say "DEY MENTIOND RATCHET'S GUNS AND DID NOT GET INFRACT!!" like it's some incredible gotcha and die mad
:umad
That’s sounds like some privileged right leaning trash. The only people who say they don’t want to hear about politics or sexuality are the ones who have bigoted thoughts they don’t like to get roasted for.
banning talk of guns is right leaning :lol
I didn’t know that me merely existing is political.
but...they didn't say...are you saying the P applies to you when there's a perfectly good S at the end to cover you existing? :derp
It's fairly obvious that by "guns" they mean "gun politics."
Are people being obtuse in this thread or poking fun at that?

Lol imagine thinking any of these people are serious.
Oh don't worry, you helped us figure this out already.
Most of them aren't professional performance artists. They're just leaning in to how goofy the furry fandom is as an inherent concept and not giving a damn. The fact that non-furries still don't get that we're in on the joke and remain judgemental in light of other fandoms much bigger slights is, in effect, the real hilarity.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/glorious-model-d-mouse.164721/
I’m not sure that it’s a “funny internet meme” though. When you have to explain that a meme isn’t racist despite it openly grifting nazism and eugenics, well, maybe it is kind of racist.
I don’t think any of those posts are trolling. Like they could have picked literally anything else as a company game and branding, and they slap GLORIOUS PC MASTER RACE on their products.
Garbage.
RACIST PC PARTS
they "have to" explain it?
they "have to" because people like era posters demand it :lol
"why does jim sterling have this blatant nazi imagery in all of his videos"
"what? it's not nazi! it's supposed to look like a self-important asshole up on his soapbox who thinks too highly of himself and his platform!"
"if you have to explain it, that makes it pretty obviously nazi"

Lol imagine thinking any of these people are serious.
Oh don't worry, you helped us figure this out already.
Most of them aren't professional performance artists. They're just leaning in to how goofy the furry fandom is as an inherent concept and not giving a damn. The fact that non-furries still don't get that we're in on the joke and remain judgemental in light of other fandoms much bigger slights is, in effect, the real hilarity.
ironic babyfur yiffing
I will say though, as a related tangent: Voice actor Rob Paulsen went to a con in Pittsburgh and said "Oh, you guys are just big cartoon characters." Imagine nearly all of ERA getting outsmarted by a fucking boomer.
HIS NAME IS ROBERT PAULSON
None of this stops Neopet and the rest of the furries from being degenerate fuckheads though...

Another thing, please let the next character be guilt-free. We already have two problematic characters in the Fighters Pass (Joker & Hero), we don't need another (Tracer, Crash, Dante, Earthworm Jim, Quote, etc.).
https://www.resetera.com/threads/sakurai-to-announce-next-super-smash-bros-ultimate-fighter-this-thursday-1-16-6am-pt.164672/post-28233264
Nintendo threads are the best.
:confused
How are any of those characters problematic?
Joker = Casual trans/homophobia in Persona and Catherine
Hero = The DQ music guy is a right-wing denier of Japanese war crimes
Tracer = Blizzard doesn't care about Hong Kong
Crash = Had a watermelon outfit that made you black in CTR
Dante = Dante's voice actor doesn't like BLM or MeToo
Earthworm Jim = Doug TenNapel hates the gays
Quote = Cave Story is published by Nicalis and the head of Nicalis said some slurs in the company Discord
:tauntaun :mindblown :badass
Wow, I read that statement as saying we don't need problematic characters like The Joker :joker or Hero (no clue) but we need more characters like Tracer, and Earthworm Jim. I assumed they meant characters who are totally innocent and support representation.
But no, a friend of a friend of Tracer said the n-word.

There's lots of jerks in the fandom. But there's a lot less open bigotry per capita than other fandoms. It's what happens when there's a bunch of LGBT people, women, and ethnic minorities around.
Meanwhile gamers and the industry showed their ass on Gamergate and haven't made it up to the women involved.
Would rather suffer heatstroke with other fursuiters than play games with gamers no cap.
I want a browser extension that changes this phrase to 'everybody but white men'. I see it used a lot and it never fails to raise a chuckle.
Meanwhile gamers and the industry showed their ass on Gamergate and haven't made it up to the women involved.
I want to know the exact amount of reparations required in order for the women involved to be paid in full
for example would $85,000 be enough just an example
The game industry must give Zoe Quinn and Brianna Wu full control of a $100 million AAA game.

2.0 out of 5 stars If the great wall were made of text
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2019
Format: Kindle Edition
It still wouldn't equal the enormous blocks of monologue which fill this book. It's pretty substandard cyberpunk and low bar as far as comics go. The title was cool and the art was good but the main character and the writing surrounding her are a mess.
The first issue doesn't really do as much to kick off the story as you would expect, as it delivers very little actual story due to having to share space with unending parades of text as the main character essentially feels bad for herself.
For people who are tech savvy, the writing is phenomenally more awful. The lack of understanding concerning technology is beyond average, approaching spunky-hollywood-movie-that-thinks-it's-slick-but-actually-is-wildly-inaccurate levels of bad. You haven't seen incompetence on this scale since, well.. the last time you saw a typical "tech nerd" wildly slapping and clacking at a keyboard in an effort to stop a sever hack in real time.
It is that level of cringe. Which, if this weren't a comic book about technology and a character who is apparently amazing at making use of it, that'd be passable fare. If this were aimed at small children? Also would be passable. But it doesn't appear to be. It looks like it's meant for the young adult crowd. It definitely delivers on the aimless angst and inner monologues.
"There's something UNDER the code!" is probably a bit of a paraphrase, that is a scene. I'm not even kidding.
Narration, plot, interesting characters, or even the barest sense of a competent hook? Not so much.
Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I love cyberpunk, and the writing feels as if it has no over sight or much in the way of editing at all.
2/5. Good art, the characters are visually interesting through out (except for "Mr.Reynolds".. whose nose needed some work, seriously, but that slight can be forgiven in the grand scheme of things). The rest doesn't keep up though.
You want a good futuristic story about a strong female lead with parental issues? Play Horizon Zero Dawn. Trust me, you won't regret it.

When Warren engages in this sort of transparent political theatre to win I think it does leave voters with a distaste for her that might affect whether or not they vote in the election. I think she knows Sanders will still endorse her even if she trashes him, because she's less of an insider and he'd still prefer her to Biden.
The only thing Trump had to get him elected last time was a Red Hat, and people still preferred that to Hilary Clinton.

say what you will about appeals to authority or qualifications but rlm at least have been to film school and know a little about the movie business, editing, constructing scenes, and can articulate why something is good or bad, at least according to their tastes
the gaming equivalent would be someone who can actually make a video game, knows how to code, knows what the industry looks like from the inside instead of a fucking reviewer just playing stuff and thinking they have some kind of connections
sterling doesn't know anything about the construction of games and the realities of game design and can't speak from that side

Except she honestly believed she was Native American for decades. Because that’s what she’s been told by her family all her life. She wouldn’t have taken a DNA test if she didn’t sincerely believe it herself. She’s since acknowledged her mistakes and has taken consistent steps to make amends with the Native American community. Like really, there’s nothing more to talk about on that issue in particular.
***disclaimer*****
So Bernie and Liz have a private conversation in 2018 about electoral strategies to beat Trump in 2020.
Bernie said ''a woman can't beat Trump in 2020''
Liz holds onto that information (about a private conversation about beating Trump) and aires it out in public before the Iowa Caucus on January 2020.
I believe that Sanders said that; but also I believe that Liz's motives to make it public two weeks before Iowa when she is done to be electorally expedient.
notes:
****I am no fan of Bernie, I was a huge mega Hillary supporter in 2016. I think Bernie was sore sour loser in 2016.

Thats why Poliera is so close to the edge of the cliff.
If Bernie is the nom, and beats Trump, it will be clear that he would have won in 2016.
In other words, Hillary and her fans gave us 4 years of Trump.

Threads like this shouldn't be allowed on RE tbh. This type of shit is far worse towards their mental health than arguing about celebrities or politics.
Much like the mental health thread, a great amount of the "woe is me" posters in that thread would benefit greatly from stepping away from the computer and actually doing some physical activity. Like instead of browsing REEE for 3 hours a day, do it for 2 and then take a walk for 1. Also cutting out the shit fast food and 6 mountain dews a day.

Bernie would have beat Trump if he was the candidate, the fact that Hillary with all the shit surrounding her was made the main nomination is why Trump won.
:brain
Thats why Poliera is so close to the edge of the cliff.
If Bernie is the nom, and beats Trump, it will be clear that he would have won in 2016.
In other words, Hillary and her fans gave us 4 years of Trump.
Thats on them, and they will have to live with that with the rest of their lives.
I generally don't see how any of them can actually win at the moment, basically people are petty as fuck and if their candidate doesn't get the nom they're less likely to vote for that person
Meanwhile Trump fans will just stick together and won't change their vote as they feel like they're backing a winner, just look at the latest election in the UK, I would suspect that Trump will have a bigger victory this time around.

People buying things from Amazon hurts whatever retailer they would have bought from, same as someone going to a Walmart instead of a local business.
But it's kinda hard to blame Amazon for the shift to online sales; but it is a model that kills a shit ton of jobs. Low paying crappy jobs.. it's why we need something like UBI.
I'm all for UBI. I just don't know how realistic it is. It's hard to get a reasonable and measured response to it because everyone is so passionate for it or against it.
UBI has support from the left (vastly simplified and guaranteed social security safety net) and the right (removes the negative equity trap of traditional social security that can perversely disincentivise finding a job by having people earn more not working)

Eh, I can imagine that it is. I'm a couple of inches shorter than that, and I definitely wouldn't trade places. Most umbrellas, showers, mirrors, cars, and women aren't built for people over 6 foot.
I'm just shy of 6'5 and haven't had any issues.

wouldn't call NeetBucks "vastly supported" on the right
in the Uk at least, the question isn't "do right wing think tanks like the Adam Smith institute support UBI?" (they openly do).
It's why do right wing think tanks support it, the supposition being if you give UBI you can then use that as an excuse to sell off existing social security safety nets like the NHS and give the cost of shit tier insurance to people instead.

Also because Rogan had a couple of racist language quips while visiting some foreign or shanty town, his libertarianism sounds pretty shallow and perfectly convenient for his life style, he's giving a lot of coverage and publicity to wank dads and assorted provably deplorable types while intellectually not being up to par to really go toe to toe or/and a very softball style. I'm probably missing a lot of "circumstancial evidence" that gets reheated on ERA every time but that seems to be the gist of it.
None of it, AFAIK, is untrue or unfair. Having heard bits of the second Rogan / Alex Jones podcast and the context of their beef (largely driven by Jones to crazy hyperbole for publicity purposes and getting invited back for getting a huge signal boost), it's clear Rogan is really, really chill in how he manages his acquaintances and doesn't / cannot push back when faced by a personality sucking the air out of the room (though notably he did probe Jones on the whole SOROS WAS A NAZI COLLABO HUNTING JEWS WHEN HE WAS 13 claim and Alex had to admit, pitifully, he didn't really had a solid source. Doesn't stop him from screaming it on his own show every other week.). However Rogan doesn't seem to have that cynical streak of being a grifter or a raving ideologue... Banning all discussion about his show seems completely petulant and counter productive but you know it's that or every thing thread being derailed over and over again.

Yeah I watched that part and it I had a similar experience when seeing Dunkirk. Three middle-aged black ladies sat in front of me and I thought that was odd. But maybe like my native american mom they have some obsession with WW2 and movies/books about it.
The same thing happened to me as what he described. I started viewing the trailers though their lives and was trying to think what relevant point all this white crap would have to them. And then a trailer for American Made came on.

A movie about the CIA paying Tom Cruise and his petite white wife gobs of money to bring cocaine back to the states during the crack epidemic. I felt like, "Fuccckkkkkkkk Ooooooffofff movie.

I don't comment on US politics much but it's absolutely wild that Joe Biden is the probable candidate. For all the Trump Derangement Syndrome you'd think they'd have started getting their shit together. They're actually incompetent. Meanwhile Bernie and Warren are fighting. I think only one of these people even has a chance of winning, and that person had a better chance last time around.

was she as tight as a chicken's ass :drool
I couldn't fuck her hard, and she couldn't really ride me because she couldn't go all the way down.
Tightness has little to do with height though.
james: She was an infamous screamer.. when I had roommates I'd often exit my room and they'd applaud.
I dated two Asian chix in college and they were loud as fuck. Dunno if it’s just an act they put on for cacs or what.
I bet Shasta’s a screamer :teehee

The DNC will never allow someone outside of the nepotistic line of succession to run. That's why Hillary was the candidate, and that's why Biden will be the candidate despite it being a staggeringly bad choice. They're effectively royalty and it's their blood-right.

Also just shy of 6'5"; maybe airlines are better where you are but flying anything but first class is kind of a nightmare at this height.

The real take away is that not once, but twice the democrats have allowed a woman to completely sabotage their chances to win. This is despite the fact that beating Trump in an election would be exceptionally easy with a one-sixteenth decent candidate. The democrats wouldn't even have to try to beat Trump, all they need to do is stop doing everything in their power to make themselves look like a bunch of morons.
No joke. The democrats would beat Trump if they went radio silent, did not run any election campaign, and then put a random person no one has ever heard of on the ballot. That's how easy it would be, but they manage to sabotage that. Amazing.

There's lots of jerks in the fandom. But there's a lot less open bigotry per capita than other fandoms. It's what happens when there's a bunch of LGBT people, women, and ethnic minorities around.
Meanwhile gamers and the industry showed their ass on Gamergate and haven't made it up to the women involved.
Would rather suffer heatstroke with other fursuiters than play games with gamers no cap.
I want a browser extension that changes this phrase to 'everybody but white men'. I see it used a lot and it never fails to raise a chuckle.

2.0 out of 5 stars If the great wall were made of text
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2019
Format: Kindle Edition
It still wouldn't equal the enormous blocks of monologue which fill this book. It's pretty substandard cyberpunk and low bar as far as comics go. The title was cool and the art was good but the main character and the writing surrounding her are a mess.
The first issue doesn't really do as much to kick off the story as you would expect, as it delivers very little actual story due to having to share space with unending parades of text as the main character essentially feels bad for herself.
For people who are tech savvy, the writing is phenomenally more awful. The lack of understanding concerning technology is beyond average, approaching spunky-hollywood-movie-that-thinks-it's-slick-but-actually-is-wildly-inaccurate levels of bad. You haven't seen incompetence on this scale since, well.. the last time you saw a typical "tech nerd" wildly slapping and clacking at a keyboard in an effort to stop a sever hack in real time.
It is that level of cringe. Which, if this weren't a comic book about technology and a character who is apparently amazing at making use of it, that'd be passable fare. If this were aimed at small children? Also would be passable. But it doesn't appear to be. It looks like it's meant for the young adult crowd. It definitely delivers on the aimless angst and inner monologues.
"There's something UNDER the code!" is probably a bit of a paraphrase, that is a scene. I'm not even kidding.
Narration, plot, interesting characters, or even the barest sense of a competent hook? Not so much.
Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I love cyberpunk, and the writing feels as if it has no over sight or much in the way of editing at all.
2/5. Good art, the characters are visually interesting through out (except for "Mr.Reynolds".. whose nose needed some work, seriously, but that slight can be forgiven in the grand scheme of things). The rest doesn't keep up though.
You want a good futuristic story about a strong female lead with parental issues? Play Horizon Zero Dawn. Trust me, you won't regret it.

If you're honestly under the impression that Trump isn't having a good week, after signing phase 1 of the China deal, the Senate approving the USMCA, and Nancy Pelosi relinquishing the articles of impeachment, you seriously need to reevaluate where you're getting your news from.

Nancy Pelosi relinquishing the articles of impeachment,

Still need to play Control. It looks like such a good game.
It's just ok. Worth a play through at least, but don't go in expecting Alan Wake or Max Payne.
The Alan Wake DLC for Control sounds really neat btw.

War on Kirblar and his Siamese twin still raging :

This is why I haven't joined the discords, seems like they're ripe for people digging up sections of people's past to present them in a very particular manner with very particular context to make very particular points. It's also been feeling more and more people have been subtweeting points they're digging out of a discord or some other place. I doubt screenshots of other discords would look much better. Sorry to bring this up again, it just stuck out to me.

If McConnell and the other GOP Senators sweep all of this under the rug I think they can kiss Colorado, Maine, Arizona, Iowa, and North Carolina goodbye. They will lose the Senate handily.
Haven't followed politics in over a year due to mental health but decided to pop into this thread. What makes you think this? Are there polls suggesting so? What have the repercussions of the recent news been regarding polls and elections?
Colorado's probably already going our way, and Arizona is definitely looking better and better with the way McSally is acting. Our Sue is in for a fight in Maine as well. In addition to that, I suppose the logic is that swing voters would see the fuckery that their senators are getting up to and vote them out. I'm not sure if that would be the case, but we can hope.
I guess it's a "no" then ?

neoxon's hard pivot from neverending fanboy who got juniored for making too many marvel threads to woke fighting gamer and almost being convinced to cut off his family over chik fila will never not be funny.
Smash Ultimate would need to hit 91 characters with no new characters who are primarily female (I.E. 16.484%) to get a worse percentage than MvCI (90 characters with no new default women would equal MvCI's percentage, that being 16.667%). Going by how long the 2nd Fighters Pass is gonna last, I'm not sure if it'll get to that point since I feel like this pass may be the final one (we'll be at 88 characters by the end of 2021).
The funny part is that, going by various rumors, we were supposed to get a 2nd Character Pass for MvCI that including Ms. Marvel & Lady before Marvel & Capcom abandoned ship (& given how they named Captain Marvel's Ms. Marvel costume as well as Dante missing all of his old Kalina Ann moves, I wouldn't be surprised if this was true). If that's true & they actually made it happen, they would have brought MvCI's percentage up to 19.048%. A damn shame how everything turned out.

The freestyle machines are fun because you can sample lots of different flavors to see what you want. and easily mix flavors.

My wife and I used to bring our mugs back when we'd stay. The different resorts had different mugs, it was something fun to collect.
Resort specific ones are cool but at least they now seem to change the designs every season or so. We almost always buy one, and a refillable popcorn bucket, when visiting during the Holidays.

Yeah the fact that the mugs are only refillable at resort locations makes me question the idea of doing that at a theoretical Disney resort vacation I might take.

I could go to Wal-Mart and buy like 5 gallons of Dr Pepper for $9.

The highlight of Disney World for me was that the Canada Epcot beer stand had La Fin du Monde on draught. Sure it was like $16, but it’s worth every penny. Who gives a shit about refillable soda mugs when alcohol is the only thing that can possibly make this experience tolerable?
-
epcot during the food and wine festival is great. i had a good time when i went to disney world last time, dunno if i could do it yearly or whatever though.
-
There are some people on this Earth (Green Shinobi) that are allegedly adults without children but buy season passes to Disney Land. I don't understand why either.
Honestly, I don’t really want to judge. It’s just hard to relate to why if they don’t have kids. I have kids and I hate theme parks. I have Six Flags season passes because if you buy them at the right time it’s cheaper than a single day pass because Six Flags is a laughably bad business.

Yeah, it's... weird. "Competent black guy is subjected to unwanted genetic experimentation by white guy and through trials and tribulations realizes that maybe the white guy was right to take away his humanity all along".

Some apparent gamer slang I've heard from my nephew (a big Fortnite and R6 Siege fan) and an old colleague who was a huge WoW and Destiny player.
"Sweaty", "try-hard", "tilt", "blueberries" (MMO term apparently), "mats".
It's mostly the derogatory stuff I dislike. Sweaty and Try-hard just seem to contribute to a pretty toxic and unwelcoming culture. Salty is the only one I can abide, because it's silly and I use it judiciously.

"Sweaty", "try-hard", "tilt", "blueberries" (MMO term apparently), "mats".
It's mostly the derogatory stuff I dislike. Sweaty and Try-hard just seem to contribute to a pretty toxic and unwelcoming culture. Salty is the only one I can abide, because it's silly and I use it judiciously.

lol blueberry is destiny specific and meaning that usually when you're in an open world or pvp game the players who you're not in the queue with are usually shit.
as for the sweaty and try hard, also in FPS games, ususaly means the player is trying so hard it's like an MLG finals on mainstage when they're playing a casual playlist.
mats, is literally materials shortened so WTF?
Tilt is just when something pisses you off...
Basically it ends up in this poster looking too soft for any games that are online based.

They were meant to be living mushrooms, but whoever was in charge of naming them didn't get the memo and named them kuribos (chestnut people).
Then in SMW they made them look more like chestnuts and later called this version of them kuribons (galoombas).
(https://i.imgur.com/QOXhYE2s.jpg)
And then with NSMBWii and NSMBU they introduced goombas that hide in chestnut shells called prickly goombas. The shells burn up when hit by fire, ie chestnuts roasting on an open fire. You encounter them in ice levels.
(https://i.imgur.com/D6ob5pL.png)
NSMBU introduced goombrats. In Japanese they are called kakibo which means persimmon people.
(https://i.imgur.com/UGFRtX1m.png)
And then SMM2 introduced a variant of goombrats for SMW style called goombuds (kakibon):

It can look like a fungus/a fruit/a plant all it wants. If it's sentient then it's not gonna fly for vegetarians or vegans.
Goombas are clearly creatures. It's a little creature that looks like a bit like a mushroom. It's not actually a mushroom. This type of gecko looks just like a leaf. It doesn't mean it's a leaf. It's a gecko. Vegetarians don't eat lizards.

I don't think it's a problem because it hurts white people's feelings or white people will be discriminated against for housing or jobs or criminal sentencing, etc in countries where they are the majority.
I think it's a problem because it is a racist term and it makes racism more acceptable.

buying a crunched game isn't an endorsement of crunch
ideally if you contribute to it being a huge success they will have the money to hire more people next time and will be able to crunch less

There's also some debate that Polish law limits and ensures compensation for overtime. Potential for abuse still exists and I can't comment on Polish labor regulation but it's a magnitude lower on the exploitative scale if so.
Considering CDPR is making public statements about it, I'd imagine they at least in appearance or superficially adheres to local labor laws.

Does the movie industry have crunch? I suppose it does but does it have the same level of peer pressure and job insecurity if you refuse as you do in game industry? I'd be surprised to know that it does to the same extent considering the movie industry is unionised.
:mike :neogaf
I'm all pro-union but there's really a lot of eye-wided idealism whenever ERA get on that topic. It's not a magic, sudden fix for the vagaries of any particular industry or workplace. Barely anyone seem to ever bring up that such an effort would happen on a country to country / company to company basis with whatever unions already exist there. In fact in most EU countries I would imagine game industry workers can and could unionize though I believe the work culture in those industries, along with the type of contracts and employee status, means poor footing for unions if left in neutral.
I must say I can't help but agree with some in the thread saying that a lot of people sound really out of touch with the reality of deadline windows.

The whole crunch thing is so fucking stupid in general; even dumber are the people who cry for contract workers who come in for crunch time collect a bunch of OT and then are let go. That's literally what contract developers do, and they often make way more money than salaried workers, they just have to manage finding their own work. The crunch is desirable, it means OT, often time and a half or other bonuses.
I'm sure there are companies that treat workers better/worse at these things, those companies get bad reps in industries.. it's pretty damn competitive for workers so people can move around and companies are forced to change those cultures.
At this point it kind of sucks because OT is so frowned upon it's just lengthened projects and lowered pay lol
I don't have an issue with overtime provided there's a solid framing for compensation and limits on it, but I think it's naive that "bad reputation" impacting attractiveness on the work market is enough to act as a moderating force or a check & balance of an equal weight. As with many things, beyond a certain point there needs to be a clear, hard ceiling. The willingness of the workers is a pretty poor gauge of acceptable, healthy practices. Labor history is just a long illustration of it.
While I think ERA applied it's usual veneer of hyperbole to that discussion, there's been enough horror stories from enough videogames companies that it's not unreasonable to suspect it's a systemic issue in the industry.
-
I'm more explaining what I've experienced / how it is actually perceived by workers in the software industries in general more than proposing any regulation or lack there of.
This is not hard physical labor; it can be draining and of course cut into your personal life time, and there can be some gross cultures.. but for the most part everyone is continuously looking for more and more labor in software.. job security is incredibly high, pay is incredibly high, people can get high pay at a very young age, etc.
My point about reputation is that for the most part it actually HAS worked; I'm not saying it's what should be relied upon.. but because it's an industry constantly in need of new labor reputation actually effects your hiring ability. There's a reason #Learn2Code is a meme.
It's my general experience too though my job has a really shallow pool of employers and I / we did get mildly fucked because of it. Videogame industry seems to be in the middle of that scale and depending on location you might not have the luxury to shop around for other employers because there aren't any.

but how does a title going to PC suddenly nullify the PS(X)s ability to put in a disc and play games? which the user says is the reason he plays on PS(X) hardware.... nothing changes that!!!
I mean... Sony fucking changed that, thats all on them.
Buy PS4 game
Put game in drive
Wait 10 mins for fucker to install to HDD
Boot up
multi gig day one patch to download before you play
The "just put game in machine and it fucking works, and dont have to worry about having to upgrade hardware every few years" argument frequently used against PC gaming straight up died this gen.

They do sometimes to heat up their Hot Pockets in the microwave, but only between 11 AM and 4 pm, which is after they have woken up (because they are SO tired) and it's when their really mean Trump loving stepdads are still at work.
Some even manage to make their way to movie theatres to partake in the latest Disney approved entertainment, but only when mommy can pick them up afterwards, because it's hard riding the bus with their refilled extra large sodas and popcorn.

Mind you that RE was also extremely pissed that they didn't instantly fire their GOG PR guy after one transgression
and then called for them to be fired again for someone elses transgression because they were both under a broader CDP umbrella

also never do crunch time but never miss a release date. also if you do any crunch you should go out of business. (https://www.resetera.com/threads/cyberpunk-2077-dev-team-will-work-extra-long-hours-after-latest-delay.165254/post-28344444)

SYSTEM WARZ on NeoGAF- kind of nostalgic. :lol
Software is where the money is at, this is a smart move by Sony
Hahaha now it’s a smart move. When MS does it it’s a shitty movie and a reason NOT to buy an XBOX, now Sony does it and its a SMART MOVIE.
These mental gymnastics. Wow
Son, MS releases day and date with PC and gamepass, that's a bad move.
Edit: Tell me again how did Gears of War 5 do both on Xbox and Steam again? Thought so.

I mean... Sony fucking changed that, thats all on them.
Buy PS4 game
Put game in drive
Wait 10 mins for fucker to install to HDD
Boot up
multi gig day one patch to download before you play
The "just put game in machine and it fucking works, and dont have to worry about having to upgrade hardware every few years" argument frequently used against PC gaming straight up died this gen.

Same. Maybe because I’ve only worked for legitimate software companies and not gaming companies.
Re: contracting. I know a couple people that only work contracts because they’re not really interested in a full-time job. They like chilling for a few months between gigs. No idea how prevalent this sort of behavior is, tho. Honestly, that sounds like the dream to me except I’m too filled with anxiety and paranoia to pull it off. I also tend to go crazy if I don’t work for three days in a row because the more free time I have, the more it’s impossible to ignore how pathetic I am.
-
It's not mutually exclusive that unionization is pretty foreign in certain industry cultures and its workers (especially contract ones, for obvious reasons) and that yet in abstract they could benefit from it.
The intent is laudable, it's not really what I find fault with ERA "advocacy".

??? He's not the "antagonist" at all in the show. He's the brother of the grieving mother, and is trying to help her.
Since i'm probably the only one on the Bore who watched Servant (which i loved, probably my show of the year) i'll say that from reading the pdf, the premise sounds very close, even though reborn dolls to cope with trauma are a thing, i could see them watching the movie and starting from that premise.
Both movie and show operating in the same horror/thriller genre probably doesn't help (though again, a girl coming down a dark stairway is hardly a unique idea).
However in the complaint itself they lament many points in which the show veers fundamentally from the premise and themes of the movie, as a way to indicate how they appropriated and bastardized the material, but to me could just as easily mean, that they had no intention of telling the same story.
A larger element of the show seems to be a mythology (so far only hinted at) about some sort of religious group, behind the nanny, which would further separate them.
That said, i see some of the similarities as rather suspect, and the premise itself is quite specific especially within the same genre.
I'm not gonna comment on M.Night's character 'cause i don't know the guy, and internet gossip is distinguished mentally-challenged fellowed, but with so many on GAF convinced Bloodborne invented gothic architecture, i'll admit i always tend to take these plagiarism claims with a grain of salt.
EDIT: Suffice to say, if they did copy from the movie, they should pay through the nose for it, and make her rich.

The first thing the bosses will take away are the swank kitchens and snack bars. I barely have to grocery shop now. I’m not really sure what benefit they could replace them with that would be worth it, honestly.

here is one major difference, however. When she wrote Emanuel, Gregorini pulled the story from her own grief over her inability to conceive a child, and from her relationship with Bach, who was frequently absent when Gregorini was growing up. The film is anchored in this sense of longing both to mother and to be mothered, and in the dynamic between two female characters who provide each other with a particular kind of affection that they’re craving. Servant, whose 10 episodes were all written by Basgallop, and whose six executive producers are all men, uses the same setup but largely ignores the emotional component of the relationship between Dorothy (played by Lauren Ambrose) and her nanny, Leanne (Nell Tiger Free). Dorothy is portrayed as an overambitious figure of fun immersed in her delusion; Leanne is a cipher whose true identity and motivations sustain the mystery of the series.
To Gregorini, the insensitivity with which the show treats its female characters adds insult to injury.
Does it make me a misogynist for thinking this is fucking stupid logic?

I admit I only skimmed it, but... most of it seems like a real fucking stretch, especially claims like "its really rare in films to see a shot of someone doing something from the perspective of being outside the window of a house looking in, then cutting to the perspective of being inside".
Like, all the thimgs claimed as being so novel that it could only be copying from her are all tropey as fuck horror film conventions, right down to the central premise of spooky doll that comes to life
You're missing the point: A lot of the shots seem to copy her work. Now, while yes the comparison shots and tropes/etc. are things that are impossible to not copy, the same premise, the same shots (nearly, with a few changes), and general same-story is something to :hmm about.
It goes into territory of "how can you copy-write an idea/there is nothing new under the sun."
But you could compare this incident to something like: Bethesada Online Studios literally ripping off 1:1 (nearly) a Dungeons and Dragon's adventure writer's campaign/module to CTRL/CMD+F "find and replace" all mentions of certain words for Elder Scroll's-centric terms and thinking nobody would notice. (http://tesseraguild.com/tag/the-elder-scrolls-online-elsweyr/)
Thing is, their "Can we copy your homework, WotC?" "Sure, just change it up a bit so it doesn't look obvious you copied." "Ok." -meme-izm broke because the original author's (and those modules players) saw the copy-writing-replacement and went "WTF, Beth?" to where Beth actually admitted they fucked up and removed the campaign (I'm not even sure if it's possible to find on the internet anymore since I think Beth paid search engines to scrub it, that's how badly they fucked up)
The idea/intention of the piece if what this allegation comes down to. You could say M. Night just had a similar idea to the "Running Out Of Time" book (a person that believes they're in a different time from the actual time finds out and has to go into the world, CULTURE SHOCK and other things) with a few changes, and sure: That happens a lot of the time and fan-fiction writers and actual writers tweak these things/tropes and play around with them to make new stories/things.
But when you copy 80% of the same story beats/tropes/camera-shots/writing-lines/whatever details you want to do here, it certainly "activates the almonds" in regards to "ok, this is creepily close to what I've written, did they see my shit, ape-it wholesale and think nobody would notice?" So she certainly has a case, especially if she can prove the executive producer saw her work since she worked with him in the past (and would have had to have sent a portfolio including her script/movie of this similar "idea"/story) and copied it/told M. Night about the idea and M. Night worked on it unknowingly or knowingly.

ITT nerds whine about unskilled labourers getting paid for their work, while completely lacking any self-awareness that they are posting on a web forum run by people are not paid a dime for the many, many hours of work required to stifle meaningful discussions.
Par for the course, naturally.

Literally never heard a software developer say they wanted to unionize lol
Same. Maybe because I’ve only worked for legitimate software companies and not gaming companies.
Re: contracting. I know a couple people that only work contracts because they’re not really interested in a full-time job. They like chilling for a few months between gigs. No idea how prevalent this sort of behavior is, tho. Honestly, that sounds like the dream to me except I’m too filled with anxiety and paranoia to pull it off. I also tend to go crazy if I don’t work for three days in a row because the more free time I have, the more it’s impossible to ignore how pathetic I am.
I've been working in gaming companies off and on for a decade and while the topic of unionization has come up a few times (even back at my first job in 2008), I've never talked with anyone who thinks it is plausible or that it would work. I've also yet to hear an explanation from someone who thinks it will help the industry that is based in reality.
Things need to change, but I don't know that a union is the way.

Against the handing of our patrimony to foreigners. Against the pathetic manlets in our government and law enforcement who are complicit in globohomo's plans to destroy us. Against our own moral failings as well, after all we can't blame these outsiders for our own moral downfall. We have abandoned God and embraced worship of self.
Most Asians are awesome. As are all people on the Earth we share. They each have their own unique genius and the God given right to express and improve it in their own homeland. We should have cordial cultural and trade relations with all of them. Colonialism should be buried as a relic of the past. We, however, have every right to remove them from our homelands so we can hand our lands down to our own children intact.

The box office bombs that Disney was mandated to distribute were a financial turd to their 2019 streak of billion dollar hits. That was the final nail in the coffin which proved that moviegoers didn't really care for 20th Century Fox as much as film fandom say they do.
A subtle rebranding to transform the 21st Century Fox assets into cleaner subsidiaries that no longer suffer the inorganic corporate baggage from Rupert Murdoch was just smart business.

I don't know what Thebishop said, but I remember the Brazil post. He basically said, as a South American, He doesn't trust the US, even if Hilary Clinton was president. This, of course, caused the PoliERA regulars to come down on him like he was saying he supports Trump's FP. Ever since, they've been lowkey gas-lighting him, misconstruing what he'd said, and outright questioning why he is still a mod. Just the usual PoliERA bullshit, but aimed at a mod this time.

What did Brazil say? What did Thebishop say?
I don't know what Thebishop said, but I remember the Brazil post. He basically said, as a South American, He doesn't trust the US, even if Hilary Clinton was president. This, of course, caused the PoliERA regulars to come down on him like he was saying he supports Trump's FP. Ever since, they've been lowkey gas-lighting him, misconstruing what he'd said, and outright questioning why he is still a mod. Just the usual PoliERA bullshit, but aimed at a mod this time.
This is the post that got Thebishop banned:

It's not the most aggro he's been but it's pretty obnoxious still. He basically starts to scold someone actually being helpful and seemingly qualified and to basically shut up if he has nothing to contribute... While himself only dropping by to backseat mod the thread.

. Okay, let's try this again. We've had to lock a few threads on this issue because of the way they have turned out, and we'd rather not have to lock this one too. Derailing threads with issues and posts from other threads is not acceptable. Neither is attacking and egregiously misrepresenting posts from said threads. Users who have engaged in such behavior, particularly after the previous staff post, have been banned.
To clarify a few issues, Brazil removed his post on his own accord, with no input or discussion with other staff. He was not present or involved in the discussion to ban thebishop for that post, and deleted his post long before that discussion took place. That post was discussed by a number of female staff (including both mods and admins), who felt it was shouting down and dismissive of sexism within politics, particularly as the author of the article was also a woman, and was speaking from the point of view of a woman. Whether or not you believe Warren, being aggressively dismissive is unwarranted and not what this forum stands for. The post was, however, long and detailed, and presented a number of issues. That is why the people who agreed with the post were not banned, as there was no way to say what they were agreeing with.
Generally staff will only delete posts for very specific reasons, and this was not a case that warranted that. We have a process and policy for this, and have issued a reminder to all staff to simply edit their posts if they change their mind about a post.
Whether or not you agree with the ban, this thread is not the place to argue about it. We have an appeals process which the user themselves can use, and general complaints about specific bans from other users can be taken to the Moderator Captains. Continued efforts to derail this thread with that will be treated as thread derailment. Now let's get back on topic.
Wait, what?

That female mods and admins thought Thebishop's post was somehow some lowkey misogyny or down playing sexism just tells me they are idiots. And if they really believed that, then anyone agreeing with the post should have been banned too. That they didn't banned people agreeing with that post just tells me even the mods and admins knew there was nothing in that post worthy of a ban.

Preamble: I hate that I must make this post. I hate that it feels necessary, that it feels like the problem won't have worked itself out of Era's collective angst in some months, but no more can I look away and ignore it and trust only to naive hope. I hate having to be a woman that feels she has to qualify her post as being a woman's perspective in order to cut through some of the fog and confusion, but now feels like one such time. Please read what I have to say and give it a lot of thought.
--
It disturbs me, honestly, to see the concept of personal truth repurposed as a rhetorical bludgeon when a given person's favored political candidate disputes the facts of a conversation with a colleague. I won't pretend to be unbiased in this. I like Warren. I think she wants to do right, but I'm appalled at the eagerness of other parties to appropriate the concepts of "her truth" and "believe women" as tools to arbitrate who is telling the truth and who isn't in a situation fundamentally divorced from a question of sexual abuse and the failure of the justice system to protect victims. It doesn't just add a degree of exposure to Me Too for credible attacks of coming forward against abusers as potentially holding a political motivation, it kicks the door open against the wall and invites it.
Warren is neither the victim of a sexual abuser, harasser, or the justice system in this. Warren also isn't being ignored, nor is in any particular peril of being ignored, quite the opposite! She has friendly voices who have leapt to her defense, no request required, who speak to national audiences and are already shaping the discourse. Not only that, but as a cishet white woman of means inside the Democratic orthodoxy, she is a beneficiary of considerable privilege and instant credibility that many (myself included, bar being white) don't have. The voices of Cherokee people, and Cherokee women specifically, received nowhere near the same credibility nor signal boosting in the blood quantum furor that Warren unleashed, and there was no talk then of handing Cherokee women the final word on basis of their truth.
And Era, let's make no bones about it. The personal truth of leftist women, or conservative women for that matter, isn't counted as highly in disputes like this one. Even if we believe the blanket application of #metoo slogans to arbitrate political disagreement is positive (and we should not), its application is partial and dishonestly advocated. Meghan McCain is no more extended that rhetoric in her defense than Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or any woman at Jacobin or TYT are. Era is not the enlightened bulwark of post-sexist community we want to see it become. We can and should be better.
As to the reason we don't extend this defense uniformly, I feel, is because we would plainly see that a needed movement in Me Too had been taken and had the bottom dug out of it until it had lost all its salience and sharpness. The only winners in this race to the bottom are political figures and celebrity types who can easily bring to bear the loudest megaphones and the largest sympathetic audiences. Victims would once more become the great losers as the culture collectively pushes them again into the margins. The movement will have been taken away from the needy for use as an amplifier of the voices of the most able... until inevitably discredited for having done so. It would become a footnote in women's history within our lifetimes.
The primary rattling and infuriating people isn't an excuse when we stand at the brink of doing real damage to one of the most effective movements in many years. Choose another course, I beg you. Think past how you feel in this moment, past the primary, past Bernie and Warren. They'll work out their bargains and endorsements as they always have. The primary, and the vote in November isn't the end of the political, let alone the cultural process that shapes it. This post shouldn't be construed as mere alarm, nor a warning against a simple slippery slope. This is the cliff's edge over an abyss. Stop. Choose another course.

To be fair to B-Dubs, this has been going on well before his ascension to defacto leader. Even back on GAF, PoliGAF/PoliERA were all about gaslighting and trolling in the OT with near impunity. Purposely misconstruing arguments, and, yes, bad faith attacks, are a regular thing with that lot. It has only gotten worse on ERA. But, yeah, hoping that B-Dubs will crackdown on the PoliERA trolls or even be even handed with the bans and ban lengths is foolish.
You'd think after Hilary's defeat in '16 PoliERA would be more humble, but they've only gotten more arrogant and up their own asses since then.

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.
i suppose suicide sometimes is the answer.

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.
i suppose suicide sometimes is the answer.

Then he re-holstered his cup.

"Maybe tomorrow, after i've finished watching the MCU and TLJ again". He smiled, and thought, "yes tomorrow".

i don't know why but it's only funny when freenudemacusers does it.
I had originally considered replacing all game references with a “joke” theme but then realized it would probably take me a couple hours, hours I had reserved for critical children’s shoe shopping.

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.

The logic is that they can't concede it because it would also deflate the outrage against Sanders alleged statement.
Though to be honest we went from the first US black President to the most cartoonish and rancid caricature of an American blowhard riding on racism & turning the clock back so there's maybe some merit that the whiplash to the whiplash could go places. "Electability" arguments might sadly have a basis in reality but they always have that stink to it, intellectually
I mean Sanders is "culturally Jewish" & functionally secular. Nobody cares about that among the polity that are currently deciding who to sent to the general election.

What about if NOBODY had guns?
Their argument for that will ALWAYS be: "Well there are so many guns in circulation already, banning them now won't do any good because then only the 'bad guys' will have them."
Yeah? Because thats a fact.

"The country elected a misogynist racist therefore a queer muslim could become President" :derp

Well I'll take you at your word. Here's how I look at it anyways:
I don't think it is an unreasonable position to think that factors like misogyny or Islamophobia or bigotry of any kind is a barrier when looking at the electorate. That being said, I think at the same time vocalizing that out into the world is also perpetuating bigotry because questioning if someone can win the Presidency is putting up another barrier, when we should be working to be accepting of anyone who shares progressive values. So for me, I would feel very uncomfortable with saying "X individual could not be elected" and putting that out into the world.
I think with the right messaging and the right person, you can make what some might consider insurmountable barriers much less insurmountable, I think those two things are much more important than "is it the right time".

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.
I'll never make a carepost again.

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.
I'll never make a carepost again.
The funny thing to me is these are the same people who go "Hurr, why don't Nintendo put their games on other consoles".

My favourite thing is people that keep quoting this annoyingly long post.

HOPE as a campaign slogan was rooted in a time when the US had been at war for 5+ years and was on the verge of economic collapse, so it wasn't really ambiguous at all.
"PEACE" would be the unambiguous statement id the campaign was solely trying to allay one particular anxiety in particular voters.
"HOPE" is the solution to pretty much all anxieties; hence the ambiguity.
I don't think people should underestimate the power of a campaign that can be summarised into a memorable motto.
My country just elected someone who is grossly untrustworthy based on fucking "Git 'er dun!"
Is “If Donald Trump can win anyone can” really confusing to you GreatSage? Lol
I missed all those gay muslims going "OH SHIT, WE DID IT FAM, WE CAN BE PRESIDENT!" after the election

Trump winning is used as an example of how low people's standards are, not to imply that now anything can happen.
If anything, it shows how low they were willing to go support their delusional disruptive fantasies.

we elected a liberal black man with the most muslim sounding name ever in the same decade 9/11 happened. i'm sure a very charismatic gay muslim/atheist could win.

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.
I'm gonna need this poster to make some of the more important text a larger font size. Hopefully it won't send some mod into frenzy :doge

i don't know why but it's only funny when freenudemacusers does it.
I had originally considered replacing all game references with a “joke” theme but then realized it would probably take me a couple hours, hours I had reserved for critical children’s shoe shopping.

I don't like it because I'm old and I don't understand anything anymore -- but as far as I can tell there are Good Furries who save women from assault and are basically just extreme cosplayers - and bad Furries who bone each other and make excruciating YouTube videos. So make sure she's the former since there's definitely only two kinds.

I'm not really comfortable giving her exact age on here due to other really sad sites collecting info on Era members but I guess I can say she's in the range of 12-15. One of her close friends is into it and you know how kids are, if their friend is into something they usually want to try it out too!
You already fucked up when you revealed you have a daughter that wants to be a furry.

The quote is literally fabricated, in the video Bernie mentions buttigieg as being too young. Apparently he addressed his sexuality earlier, but again as an issue voters might have, not an issue outright. Being anything other than a straight white christian male IS a problem for a not insignificant portion of the electorate unfortunately, pretending that isn’t true doesn’t help anyone.

Alright.
Time to break it down.
The following has been stewing in my mind for quite some time now and it's a big topic but I'm gonna go crazy so I'm just going to sit down and talk about how otherwise perfectly rational, normal people reach this silliness.
Okay so, I want to start this on the right tone. This is not meant to lambast or demean anyone, but rather analyze. So, first of all I'm gonna admit. I understand it. I'm not going to defend it. I think it's dumb as hell. But I get it. I have that gut reaction sometimes.
Oh who am I kidding, I have that gut reaction a lot. I'm an emotional guy. I understand and identify with all of the silliness that Playstation fanboys may be feeling all the way to expressing loudly or wherever on that spectrum they may fall.
Gonna break it down one point at a time. Originally when I wrote this I'd said simple. Uh...this isn't going to be "simple" as in "short." But hey yeah maybe someone who actually is seriously doing this will read this and get it about themselves.
And I don't think I'm a genius for explaining any of this; I just don't see any other break down posts that aren't just reductive or insulting. So I want to explore this.
In the end, and I promise this is not a slight or meant to demean anyone, but surprise, I know, none of the behavior or concern in this thread is purely logical, but instead at its heart, sheer sentimentality. Though I think this particular brand of it is worth exploring. Like, Shocker! I know, I know, wow Chettlar so insightful it's just feelings. But whatever I want to explore this.
Video games are emotional experiences for us as human beings. But emotion is not as simple as the present feeling someone is experiencing. Emotion is a vast sea of experience. It is informed very much by headspaces we inhabit. Video games are incredibly good at creating those headspaces, and when you get consoles associated with those emotional recipes and the unique flavors they produce, the emotional attachment gets really, really strong. Really strong.
Video games are so good at creating these headspaces because they affect so many things that other art mediums do at one time. I mean, a song alone can create this wonderful emotional landscape that can move people to tears, cause them anguish, turn their day around, give them resolve, change their minds on unrelated topics, and in some rare cases literally turn their entire lives around. Even wordless songs can do all this. It's kinda crazy. And this is just ONE aspect of what games do. Games are so total in how experiential they have the potential to be. They are engaging, engrossing, and immersive, if not in one respect, like suspension of disbelief of an immersive world, than in another, like the total engagement in a competitive online match for example. A lot of idiots (I was one of these idiots at one point) want to argue that some games are just pure logic and appeal to them because they are just logical people. Mostly these people are self impressed adolescent nerds (like me hi). Some of these self impressed "adolescent" nerds are in their 30s and 40s. But really, while they may indeed enjoy the logic they are engaging with, them enjoying it is already a bunch of emotional trails running at once. You can't separate out emotion form any part of human experience.
Everything you experience serves to create that emotional landscape which then informs the context from which all emotions experienced within are formed. UI Designers are no less important than any other designers for this very reason. The Gestalt of the experience you have in a game is, well, Gestalt. It is everything that exists to creates that experience for you. The sound of pressing your console's power button, the sound of the hard drive engaging, the start of a chime or melody or chord, the bleeps and bloops of the menus — these all serve to create an emotional reference point for everything that happens after. And this itself always has a point of origin inspired by whatever your impression of what a video game console and what it can provide you might be. When a console is new, our brains, with the expectation of fun and excitement however we got that expectation, usually as kids and/or absorbed in some way from society around us, lap up every bit of it, even if consciously we do or don't pay direct attention ourselves.
This is easier when we are young too, hence nostalgia. I've seen it observed that when I miss an old game, I am not missing the game alone, but really what I miss is being a child. I think this is close to the truth but not quite. Being a child was way different and kinda sucky in a lot of ways. Really this is just trading one simple misconception for another. What we miss is our abstract idea of being a kid, and that idea is often the left over remains of those headspaces we remember most. Oregon Trail is, for me for example, an emblem, or a mental icon of that entire headspace I was in while a kid. That head space was so powerful because as a kid it was more relevant to me than it ever could be now as an adult. There was little else to compete with it. I was a kid soaking up everything around me. Of course every emotional landscape I created would be so visceral, so potent.
As an adult, it isn't so potent. Not the headspaces my mind continually creates, and not the headspaces I remember and sometimes try to relive. I know that I still create these emotional experience schema type things because they are what replace the old ones. Every time I've gone back and played an old game, the experience I had with a kid is briefly remembered more strongly than my memory, and then often snuffed out by my new, present experience, and yet not totally. That experience still is a part of me, and has informed who I am and the experiences I can have that have come after.
For some of us, as those experiences become less visceral and our adult brains become less plastic and less prone to soaking up experiences and creating new powerful emotional landscapes to exist in (which again crazily, we some how often seem to just, not realize are there), we begin to miss being children, when the world was so much bigger and brighter, and our emotions were so much stronger and less bogged down by real life and our more set thoughts that come from being a big old boring grownup. And yet, we continue to have these associations. Maybe they aren't as strong, but they exist. It's just that often they are more strongly informed by their ability to appeal to those we most fondly remember.
I have no overwhelming preference to Xbox or Playstation or Nintendo, or whatever other games, because growing up for me personally, I only had some point and click games and a lot of educational games all on an old office computer. Some hunting games too, which I enjoyed exploring nature in. So for me, exploring in a game for example remains a lot of fun. That said I know for me that the experience of playing on an xbox 360 is a bit stronger than playing on a PS3 because that was the beginning of my experiencing all of modern gaming. It was where I experienced games that changed who I am as a person to this day. Anything that references those feelings will continue to be compelling for me, because it will help remind me of those headspaces I most heavily associate with playing and being emotionally invested in a video game. Or at least it's a major part of that for me. Humans are complex. (That said, PS3 was also the place I experienced Journey and Demon's Souls for the first time, and is the more recent place I played NieR, all in my later teens, so, say, that beginning orchestral tuning when you turn one on will continue to be powerful for me as well).
To sum this up as well as I can, experiential context is an inextricable part of what creates the emotional landscapes through which we "enjoy" video games, or even more accurately, what that enjoyment basically is.
(And to add. The people designing these things know this. Why do you think they design those beeps and boops? Why do companies so strongly contest their rights to their branding and imagery? They only control part of that puzzle, it is important to keep in mind, but it still is a part.)
Alright, so how is this stuff that all probably seems like stuff you generally sorta know maybe didn't really think about but kinda noticed relevant?
Well, so think about how powerful all that is. Like I really hope I've communicated how important this stuff is. Everyone experiences it differently, but everyone, to some degree, has SOMETHING that affects how they experience video games, a lot of it honestly probably too difficult to really accurately totally and completely enumerate. And for so so so many of them, understandably the thing they most powerfully identify with enjoying a video game is the console upon which they play. There's always many many more aspects — like for me the computer room in which our couple little office computers were housed on the side of our basement's big room — but I'd wager it's a huge component for a lot of people. It's a bit silly, but everyone has something that sort of engages their gamer brain and all the emotional ..."baggage" has too much negative...baggage associated with it, but you get what I mean. My point is that everyone has various things that to them create that emotional landscape context, and for many people to some degree, the console is a major component. This is true for PC gamers too. Again, it's a universal human trait. I mean, as a curiosity to observe at very least, why do people adorn their gaming PC's with "gamer" aesthetic? If you are not one such person, you are not "above" needing some sort of physical or aural or luminous or in some other way emotional trappings of experiential context. It's just that you associate that garish aesthetic with adolescence or obnoxious "gamer" behavior, so they are not a part of what creates a headspace you enjoy. For others, they just might. All sorts of things could be for a PC gamer. Maybe clicking on the discord icon is a little sparkle of flavor as part of the ritual the begins your gaming session. Again, not something you consciously think about unless you happen to notice, but nevertheless a part of your experience. Heck, while I'll be the first to criticize Epic and the EGS, it is impossible for me to deny that there absolutely is some sentimentality in one's preference for a Steam only experience. That is not ALL of it, but that is a discussion for another time. Suffice to say it is impossible to ignore that that experience does exist to flavor any perhaps logically sound or petty discussion on the subject.
So how does this apply here?
Well, when a lifelong playstation gamer moves away from playstation to PC for example, that is all gone. It's just gone. Worse than gone. PC might already have its own associations in their heads that are decidedly negative for that person.
It isn't as if they can't enjoy video games any more. It isn't as if this isn't something that can't be adjusted. Like I said earlier it absolutely can and is continually adjusted. All your memories are just memories of the last time you remembered something anyway. People are plastic. Maybe in some ways less as we grow older, but still essentially plastic. But we can't deny the fact that context and headspace for which people enjoy a given thing, especially if that is an emotional thing, like, oh I don't know, a video game, are not always easy to let go of.
This manifests itself in different ways. It's why you will never convince, with logic, sound as it may be, a person to change their mind on something that was not born of logic in the first place. The fact is if Joe Gamer associates gaming with his Xbox, and his PC with the office, then an Xbox game being on PC, even if the experience is so much better on a PC, and he could make a cheap gaming PC with more options if he wanted to, you aren't going to change his mind. Heck, even Self Aware Joe Gamer may not change his mind, because you can't just fix a deeply rooted emotional association with logic. Not that easily and never completely. Now, part of just allowing yourself to grow as a human being is recognizing those limitations and realizing you can change them and experience new and different things. But also part of being understanding and emotionally intelligent on the other hand is recognizing that emotional association and this specific concept I've referred to with the shorthand of "headspace" and "emotional landscape" so far, are all part of what make us human beings. It's okay to let them be how they are, and learn to both expand them while also taking advantage of how powerful they are if indulged. If you truly love video games as a medium, both are valuable skills to develop.
The trouble we get into then here is when people attempt to rationalize their emotional experiences down to very simple point of interest. They associate mentally a noticeable thing with a noticeable emotion, and here's where it gets kind of funny but interesting, then create an emotional attachment to the idea of that noticeable thing ex post facto. So maybe a given sequence in a game was subconsciously extremely immersive for someone, but also there was a thing that happened in that sequence that they associate with that feeling. They will then try to convey that that thing they associated with the feeling was really really good and definitely was the source of that feeling they got, even if someone else who was not immersed in that experience can point to all the flaws in the thing that happened and how that thing isn't so great because it didn't affect them in the same way. You can say "well it's all subjective," but that is rather lazy.
Sorry if that was a bit confusing. Maybe for example, all sorts of things you do but probably mostly don't notice leading up to and including a given sequence in a game create a feeling of great pathos for you, and so then you are more receptive and ready to accept something as sad or moving. So a scene happens that you find really sad and moving. Then someone else points out to you how crappy and poor the writing was and how silly it sounds. That person didn't experience the same things as you to create that experience. You did, but didn't realize it. So for you, you point out an awkwardly and unrealistically written but earnest scene as something that created a moving experience, when really it was the whole of that gestalt leading up to that moment that enabled you to be receptive to that scene and not notice that ordinarily you'd find it silly. So when someone points out to you that the dialogue is silly and not realistic at all, you are incensed. How could they see that dialogue as silly? Well, it's pretty simple. Essential aspects that lead up to that experience didn't work for them. Just as equally they have probably experienced and enjoyed something you found silly because various things did not work for you. Heck, even if you both enjoyed the scene, different things may have been what did it for each of you, even if in English you'd list the same basic reason you enjoyed it, ANDDDDD, you could both be wrong in whatever simple thing you are ascribing the experience to. Most of what makes a game well beloved then is, I feel like it's pretty logical to conclude, is when it is so effective at nailing everything that everyone is able to experience what it sets out to experience for them.
SPOILER:
(Heck, this failure is exactly what causes that really awkward moment when a teenage boy tries to show some girl a cool fight scene from this anime episode #2489 where goku uses his 9.38 million power chi to suplex the pokemon demon master Doki Baka Kun. The fight scene, I hate to break it to you 16 year old m- uh you, but that fight scene wasn't that cool. But that doesn't make it bad either! And it doesn't make you silly for experiencing the power conveyed by that scene. It's more complex than that. The scene itself isn't the thing that made you feel that way on its own. In this case it's the entire 2,488 — oh okay we all know episode #1433 is not canon any more I GET IT CHETTLA- I mean you, okay fine the entire 2,487 — episodes that preceded this glorious fight are the source of your emotion.
And there is no way this cute girl who is pretending she doesn't know you should have showered like at least one this week because she likes your dorky enthusiasm can ever, ever feel the thing you want to share with her, because nothing you explain will convey the full power of what you have experienced. At best it could encourage her to go experience that herself if that sounds exciting to experience. Sure the episode was an emotional release for you, but you are ignoring a lot of flaws in it and how badly animated it is and how actively it takes some people out of the experience by how very average it is, because for you personally that wasn't enough to override the emotional experience you had).
My point is, that often we can mistake the things that really create experience for us for silly oversimplifications. That thing we ascribe it to might not even have anything to do with the true source of that experience. Even those of us who scorn intellectual analysis as boring and ruining the fun and magic of art and video games do this. Because all of us want to feel justified in feeling the way we do.
That's really what it comes down to. Our self image is threatened when the things we most deeply experience are trivialized. We have to justify our experiences because anything we deeply enjoy is reflective of who we are as people. I am not Chettlar because I find Viva Pinata delightful, and me being Chettlar isn't really accurately the reason I enjoy it; neither really totally begets the other. The fact is me being Chettlar is now for the past 7 years or so me being the guy who enjoys Viva Pinata, at least to a small degree. That's...kinda what people mean when they say art is a part of who they are, in my opinion. When I write music I show the world a part of me I can't express any other way. When I enjoy someone else's music, that is me responding to that person, and creating something else. An experience. A..me..unit sorta. That which I call my identity is amended whether I like it or not. Why else do people even lightly interested in a various piece of media adorn themselves either with avatars or memorabilia? Part of our identity is what we enjoy. When I justify why I enjoy a thing, I am justifying ME. And at some point somewhere with some thing, you reading this do that too. If you've read this, I've affected you whether you like it or not, whether you think I'm onto something or just an over-intellectual sycophant (I mean, I just used the word sycophant). As I talked about earlier, video games are some of the most involving of all mediums. Sure this combines with video games being enjoyed and created in huge part by anti-social nerds, a lot of whom never had to grow past being children and so reflect this reality in unfortunate and sometimes horrendous ways. But video games were always going to have such a strong effect on the people who play them, because by their nature they touch so many parts of us at once.
Alright.
Sooooo
..
Let's plug this all in then. I get the previous part may have been a little boring, but I gotta make sure I establish some common ground here so I can get to the juicy bit. Hopefully the emotional headspace I created for you, lol, wasn't just "who is Chettlar and why has he assaulted me with this skyscraper of text?" I'm trying okay? It's a large topic.
Alright, well.
A lot of Playstation fans, whether they want to admit it or not, and not all of them, but many of them to varying levels, have used exclusives as their preferred means of justifying their being fans of the brand. Not just their purchase, but of the brand. Playstation. What that means for them. What emotional sparks that might gently but maybe imperceptibly begin to flare. I think for some of them, they view themselves as intelligent, discerning and logical people. To support this, they have to believe that the games they play are the best games ever made, or at least top notch in general. A few crappy games they dislike can serve as the sacrificial lambs to demonstrate to themselves and others that they are not mindless fanboys, of course. (Psst, this is not me implying that Sony games are all trash. But the emotional need some may posses more than others to place these exclusives at the very top of the medium is very much related to this. If you find yourself starting to feel defensive right now at that very implication, uh...maybe think about that for a minute. Because I've not even said whether I like Sony games. Actually that's not true, I already have. I mentioned Journey earlier as a hugely impactful game for me, because it truly was for me.) And this isn't to diminish the fact that these games, on their own, have created emotional experiences. Sony makes some quality titles. What I am saying that there is an emotional need to elevate them into the stratosphere that you might not be as immune from as you might think, even if you don't even like Playstation games and you're interests lie elsewhere.
This is why you have a number of journalists comment that they receive a lot of their death threats (if not due to them being anything other than cis male because of that whole big thing gamers™ have a problem with, but that's another topic) most often in relation to, you guessed it, their views on exclusive games. Not just Playstation games. This happens with Nintendo fans and xbox fans. But right now the topic is Playstation, so I've been using that specifically. Plus, let's not pretend that Sony's marketers are totally oblivious to their identity as a brand that builds major impressive cinematic experiences. They're pretty vocal about it honestly. So if you are profoundly affected by that marketing because all marketing in all of the world of branding of any kind is designed with the intent of validating that identity you've created, well, it's working.
Again this is not to specifically attack Playstation fans. Every person has this happen to them, because we are emotional creatures like I discussed before. I'm not even attacking capitalist marketing. Cults do this, states do this, small clubs do this, movements do this — anything and everything that has an interest in existing as an institution in your life does this. And it always will.
But the er, unsavory side of it is Playstation fans being ugly up to and including sending death threats to websites who didn't give Uncharted 3 10/10 reviews before they had even played the game themselves. That behavior didn't come out of the blue. It didn't just come from some aggressively mislead slaves to the marketing of Uncharted 3 who just believed foolishly that the game was great before it was on store shelves. It didn't just come from the black magic power of branding alone. It came from fans whose identity relied on Playstation being a brand of prestigious perfect video games. I will point out, meekly, but frankly, that the forum that was the precursor to this forum, was home to a lot of that senseless ugliness. Maybe not the worst of it, but some of it. But again, it's not senseless really. It's not reasonless most certainly. It's just a result of a lack of self-awareness of how deeply and profoundly the experience and identity of being a Playstation fan, even among those who didn't specifically identify as Playstation fans per se affected these people's views. Again, we all are affected by our emotions even in what we feel are our most rational moments. This is an example of how that applies here. Marketing was part of it, but not even close to all of it. It cannot create this out of nothing.
I feel strongly that trying to dismiss these people as corporate slaves is foolish, I need to note. It is an oversimplification that tries to distance the one making it from their behavior, trying to shift the blame to a system rather than acknowledge the human source of, and life factors leading up to, that behavior, be it as it may that that marketing did play its part in accentuating or accelerating that behavior. I really feel that much of what begat that behavior was something universal to us all. That maybe you reading this aren't so immature as to act in that way, but you are nevertheless affected by your favorite brand of video game, or your favorite happy video game place. It compels you to act the way you do, whether you've taken the time to see it or not.
Hopefully I've kind of shown some of the beautiful and ugly sides of what emotional identity and the headspaces we inhabit, that are so intimately tied to that identity, can be.
When you take away a Sony fan's rationale for defending his identity as a rational, logical, intelligent human being who enjoys Playstation because he is such, you lay bare and naked the fact that his love of Playstation was never truly rational, logical, or intelligent.
Certainly there were rational, logical, and intelligent reasons that may have got him there, but his love in the end comes from a humiliating and simple human reality. He loves his beeps and boops, his whirrs and start-up tune, his click of a face button and clack of an analogue stick. He loves the feeling of the couch under is butt. He loves the dim lamp light. He loves the logo that pops up and tells his lizard brain, "Game time! Fun time! Relax! The physical place you are in only serves along with the lights and sounds and trinkets to create the mental place you so enjoy. We all exist to simultaneously create a sanctuary and catalyst for what you love most." To explain to him his rationale is not, at least entirely, rational despite the part logic may play in it, the reason he loves Playstation, is humiliating, because it eats at, even if he doesn't realize it, the idea that he isn't who he thinks he is. He's a silly, lizard brained animal just like anyone and anything else. And his love for these experiences is inspired in huge part by silly things. And he wants to feel that it comes from intelligence and superiority. It's banal and boring insecurity, regardless of whether he's even ever been conscious of it.
He doesn't want to admit that at the heart of it, the reason he's a Playstation fan is for reasons he probably has already subconsciously written off as humiliating or silly. (He may have, in an ironic lack of self awareness used such an explanation to humiliate someone else and diminish their experience specifically to prop himself up. That isn't necessary at all, but if he's a jerk maybe it's happened. You don't have to be a jerk to have blind spots. We all do.) And he doesn't even have to have gone through ANY of these thoughts either. It probably just manifests in a vague fear of being threatened, his subconscious warning him that this person pushing him to recognize the very banal source of his identity is actually just an asshole, and he shouldn't think about it, but instead be mad at the asshole, or the person responsible. He tries to come up with all kinds of badly thought out rational reasons to defend his position and why his essentially selfish desires shouldn't be exposed as the petty things they are.
And you, the reader, probably do this with something, somewhere, in your life too. Maybe it's more serious, maybe it's more tiny. But that's your business to examine what silly things your pride doesn't let you accept. My point is that this is a human thing. Not something playstation fans do because they're dumb dumbs for some reason.
And the funny thing is? The cure to this is not that complicated. It's like, really simple. Accept that your lizard brain likes the beeps and boops and that the idea of what playstation is to you is in the end, just an emotion. Accept that you aren't any smarter than anyone else because of the games you enjoy. That your reasons for the way you game the way you do aren't super intelligent because at the center of it all, you are playing games to have fun, which is nothing if not the definition of emotional experience. You are going to do what you are going to do to engender that experience. I mean, really games are deeper than fun. Some of our favorite games we love because they were very seriously emotional, and not really the typical colloquial definition of fun, now that I really think about it. The fact is you are going to, subconsciously or not, do what you need to do in order to create those experiences for yourself. And that's okay. It's definitely good to explore the reasons why this happens. But analyzing your reasons for enjoying something is an intellectual pursuit of curiosity, not an appropriate avenue for justifying your identity, and certainly not an appropriate thing to use to deprive others of enjoying more things in the way most effective for them. If analyzing why something happens is not allowed to humiliate you or if it makes you feel threatened in anyway, well sucks to be you buddy because fact is you are a mortal imperfect human being and analyzing the reasons you are the way you are are going to be compromising in some fashion. I really don't know what to tell you other than to move past it, because you are seriously limiting yourself to some awesome opportunities to learn and grow as a person. I don't care if you're 15 or 50 or 31½.
The fact is, humiliating as it may be, you fancy the things you fancy is because they tickle your lizard brain and help create an emotional cocktail you enjoy.
If you don't recognize that, you won't realize how utterly silly it is that you are essentially arguing that someone should compell you to spend more money. Like, really at the end of it, it's an extremely illogical, silly fear of missing out. You've created a really silly idea, dress it up however you like, that you are missing out on something. If a game comes to more platforms, well clearly an exclusive has been deprived of you. You've got a silly animalistic instinct of valuing scarcity. You feel that if a game comes to more platforms, it's not special any more. So then it's not as special. But you've not lost anything, other's have gained something. But the FEELING of it being special is gone, so you feel that objectively something is missing. Well buddy sorry to break it to you but there is nothing logical about that, no matter how you want to dress it up. So much for being rational. Yes, games are created to sell consoles, but if a company moves to making those games for more platforms, you have not lost anything. You just feel like you have because the emotional puzzle piece that has disappeared from the equation if the feeling of scarcity and exclusivity everyone finds at least a teeny tiny bit alluring on some level.
More related to the general point of this entire post, you also fear missing out in a way that really is actually, funny enough, self imposed, and leads you to do silly things like, as I said above, imply that you WANT to be compelled to spend extra money. The fact is you want a rational reason to get a video game console and have the whole experience it provides you. If you don't have an exclusive game to justify that experience, then you are left facing that horrible, humiliating fact we talked about.
You don't want the console for rational reasons. You want the console because you want the emotional idea of that console. You want the console because of the emotional landscape it creates within you. Because you are a human being who needs things you don't want to recognize to exist in order to facilitate the fullest enjoyment of a video game possible. Exclusives helped justify that for you in a way that seems tangible and rational.
Your silly emotional and not-well-justifiable reasons for spending hundreds of dollars on a console aren't enough for you. You need to feel reasonable, rational, and intelligent for wanting what you want, even if you don't personally think you care. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't be asking someone to make you spend hundreds of dollars on electronics that in all essential ways do all the same things as the electronics you already own. You want stuff, and now you can't justify it, and that's humiliating to recognize how silly you are.
Thing is though...like, really the way to make peace with this, like I kind of covered, isn't that hard. Like, okay, I like silly things. Why care? Are video games not just a bunch of bleep and boops? They still create amazing experiences for you. If you want to spend $400 to feel better about yourself, spend $400 if it makes you happy. It was just as silly an expenditure when it had exclusives, because at the heart of it you are just indulging your emotions, and that's what these big toys are for. It is no less and no more a silly expenditure in a way that really, truly matters now that it doesn't. If all your games come to PC, you are still someone who enjoys themselves on your playstation or your xbox or switch. Go play your playstation or xbox or switch and be happy. You are a silly, irrational human being. Don't take yourself so seriously. Don't be an idiot with your money, but if what makes you happy is owning a box with a big X or a big P or lopsided face looking thing on it to play your games on, then that's what makes you happy. You're wasting so much energy trying to preserve your ego, and honestly in the end hurting yourself most of all by limiting your ability to grow as a human being.
Yeah, you are still a child. You like big toys. You like car go vroom. You like head blow off. You like sparkles shiny wow. You are depriving yourself and others of joy by insisting you are so superior to that. You're not intelligent by trying to make yourself appear intelligent or rationalize and justify your self-image. Ironically you're...kinda bein' stupid. So what. We're all stupid. Quit taking yourself so seriously. Go play video games you big dummy.

Being anything other than a straight white christian male IS a problem for a not insignificant portion of the electorate unfortunately, pretending that isn’t true doesn’t help anyone.

Bio: Faidia Was Separated From Her Parents At A Young Age By A Wild Fire In Her Village. She Found Shelter In An Abandoned Village, Which Became Her Home...Until...Now...
Appearance:
(https://d.facdn.net/art/faidia/1519714757/1373926828.faidia_faidia_-_pounce_-_resized.png)
History: Shigiro was raised in a village surrounded entirely by a forest or they were also known as the Mige clan. There were many different villages and clans like this one around the world and they all have different names but they all followed the same language known as “Omniyon.” Omniyon is the ancient tongue that foxes used with each other. Shigiro had his parents, a brother and sister. His mother Hisaki, also lead in the medic, was a very nice lady and also ran a care for those foxes who were out on a hunt for food or journeys. Her silver slick hair that moves with the winds down to her mid back. Her medic techniques were used from water, which she can manipulate, but she can’t use it as attacks. She taught this down to Shigiro for later use in life. His father Shinosuke, the head of the clan, was a brilliant leader, wise, and very fast. He wasn’t very strong but his speed made up for his strength along with use his power of wind. Shigiro received that power from his father but his no where near as fast as him. His older brother Hiryu was always out on missions and journeys to make himself better than his old man. He never even came close to beat him. His little sister, Ai, always looked up to Shigiro for protection and guidance. She was a very sweet and innocent little girl. When Shigiro got to the age of 16, he decided he wanted to see the world for himself instead of what he was taught. With the teachings of his mother and father, along with a bow his mother saved for him from her father. He set out into the open world, the real world to see what adventures awaited him.

Bio: Grey's life is a simple one. He lived with his pack until he was big enough, and smart enough, to care for himself. He lived from place to place for the longest time. Part from the occasional scuffle over food, hence the cut in his ear, he's lived a rather peaceful life, until just recently. This last fight was over food. However, when he looked into his opponents eyes, he found love, and a mate. Her name, is Viro. Since their fight a year ago, they have lived very happily together.

Not surprising at all that the OP that made that thread is a PoliERA regular. Also not surprising that they escaped a banning. The only reason the thread was locked is because it was so disingenuous and framed in such bad faith that not even fellow PoliERA regulars could fake outrage and play along that Sanders said anything bad.

It's not a great label, that's why I put it in quotation marks. It covers a variety of situations of people that come from Jewish parents, family, lineage or background but live a secular life and/or are not recognized officially by whatever arbitrary standard their religious denomination uses.
Basically what I wanted to say is that Sanders is a secular Jewish person.

The secret sexist thing was out of line and a misinterpretation of what Neoxon was saying. I do not believe that Sakurai not saying he fought for F!Hero IV is evidence that he didn't, however, nor do I think it's reasonable to assume that.

Side story, the only thing I feel true shame about is the time I pointed and laughed at a dude in a blue wolf suit at a convention until I was on the ground crying.
In my defence I wasn't laughing at him. I just noticed the blue plastic six pack on the wolf only had 2 nipples. This started me laughing and my now ex asked my I was chuckling. So I tried to explain it but realized I looked like an idiot pointing at the dude and laughing. Which made me look like an asshole so I started laughing harder and wasn't able to talk.
So now I'm laughing LOUDLY. Pointing at the dude in the suit and he's starting to get pissed. But I can't explain it's a misunderstanding since I can barely breathe. I'm also unable to focus enough to stop pointing. This causes a laughing positive feedback loop.
I had to be dragged away by my ex while I gadped for air.

Asking to have attractive women in the game? Did you imagine that you’d suddenly become slick, because you most certainly haven’t.

"What happened was an enormous blessing in disguise. A complete self-purge of the screeching emotional types and some peace, quiet and breathing room for the rational types to talk it through and figure shit out. For EL, a temporary hit to the cashflow and the pain of dealing with getting #MeTooed but look at the situation now: 2 years of reshaping the culture and laying the foundations for future success (and a whole lot of respect from those of us who’ve watched the rebuild). Short term pain and now time to reap the rewards while the sad fucks at Ree wallow in their mental illness and shrivelling echo chamber."

Why is it so miserable to be part of fan communities now a days
Fans have a habit of tying up a lot of their self-worth and future plans in the release and quality of whatever it is they're a fan of. The constant arguing and cynicism without ever actually leaving the fucking fandom is borne from a juvenile, misguided sense of caring too much and thinking one's individual opinions are valuable to the creators in charge.
It is best to take a more transformative approach to fandom-- to stop mindlessly salivating over the next installment and getting pissy when something doesn't go your way, consuming to no appreciable end, and to take the positive passion and do something to enrich yourself and maybe even the lives of others.
Nepenthe lowkey shaming the entire forum.

First of all relax. I did read the OP before.
Before you or anyone jump to any conclusion, As a 38 years old, the media doesn't really affect me on what I think is right or wrong . However, I do agree that I am not the whole world. and I do agree that media plays its part to brainwash or a better word to influance the younger generation which can lead to a problem if it wasn't properly moderated.
However I do not agree with you that this is fantasy for men only. when I am playing with a man / boy from a Final fantasy universe that doesnt exist in real life, is that for men ? I am never gonna look like a Cloud or Noctis or whatever. just a fantasy characters. same goes for the other gender. that is why I don't see anything wrong with it if its within the limit i mentioned above ( a young girl pretending to be above 18 and all sort of naked like those Sakurai games or whatever its called )
But not to have any sexualized female or male character at all because some girl or a guy gets offended she or he will never look like that ? cmon

Has ResetEra not posted about this yet? What a bunch of bad allies.

U.S. will look at sudden acceleration complaints involving 500,000 Tesla vehicles
The petition covers 2012 through 2019 model year Tesla Model S, 2016 through 2019 Tesla Model X, and 2018 through 2019 Tesla Model 3 vehicles, the agency said. The petition cites “127 consumer complaints to NHTSA involving 123 unique vehicles. The reports include 110 crashes and 52 injuries,” the agency added.

Locking the thread while we review reports and consider next steps. This discussion has become a mess.
Who are they trying to kid? The "discussion" was going fine until a butthurt mod decided to delete the poll and ban the OP for no reason. The "discussion" became a "problem" when people openly called bullshit on the poll deletion and ban and you had no way to justify it :lol

It wouldn’t work in our electoral system, all it would do is siphon votes from the democrats and ensure republicans have a stranglehold on governance. But yes I agree the 2 party system blows.

We are rebooting this with a new, proper poll, and we lifted some of the previous bans to give this a second chance. These were the result of us moving hastily to try and stay on top of things, and we apologize to anybody who feels unfairly treated.
But remember, bans are always the result of careful consideration by the staff team.

In reality, I rather enjoy seeing someone like Bernie surge against what the populace sees as “conservative opponents”.
It’s insane how much shit he’s getting, how the press actively excludes him, how a known fact checker knowingly promotes falsehoods to counter his electability etc. and yet a growing majority of the population supports him and his policies.
Definitely refreshing. And entertaining!
I will rather let someone beat Trump in the election. :yeshrug
If Bernie, Warren or abusan can do it, this is all whatever. Just hope is not another insane shitshow like HillaryVsBernie last year.
I just don’t feel Bernie is a savior of anything (neither Warren or Biden, for that matter).

The poll results saying 80% of American era says democrats are too much right of left is just proof of the bubble era lives in. Just imagine.

This means 80% of US era is among the 10% of electorate and showing how out of touch with reality and with American thinking they are

Kotaku claims they have a recording proving what they reported was on the record and the person admits they were asked to review the article and didn’t.
The truth is really irrelevant here. She felt like she got raped and she felt like she didn't say to publish the fact she felt like she got raped.

It really comes off like the ResetEra's staff consensus position is the bitch is a fucking liar but also that guy definitely raped her. :lol

Weird how no one wants to go the police with their spurious misunderstanding rape claims, but wants to smear people in publications without actually going on the record.
When you lie to cops, its a crime. When you lie to journalists, you're helping someone out with a juicy story.
-
A messy situation, but it's Kotaku's fault. If you put your trust in a journalists and they tell you that a conversation is off the record, and then they go on ignore that, either because they're shitty at their job, or because #metoo stories have a high click-through (especially ones with "juicy details"), that is deeply violating.
I never read the original kotaku article before it was changed, and i'm certainly not going to read it now and positively reward the site for it's failure.

This x100, all the fake wokes not reading and jumping on bandwagon to lynch. The article is very clear cut, Cecil follows all protocols and have all the receipts to back it up. Nat simply forgot or have a misunderstanding from the communication. The article came up, Nat got harassed, and perhaps she regretted for sharing her info, then Kotaku removes some quotes to reduce further harassment from happening to Nat.
OP, this is not a very good post, only serves to create stupid conversations from ppl who doesn't read the op.
Yes, it's the "fake wokes" who care more about protecting a rape victim than stanning for a bunch of hack journos who work for a megacorp covering children's toys.
ResetEra has a message for the fake wokes of twitter: issues involving rape should be ignored whenever mildly inconvenient.
-
Yeah how dare an abuse victim not want to read about her own traumatic experiences.
She went to the press explicitly for this purpose. It's not like she's seeking justice, she's was actively seeking attention for her victimbux account which doubled as a result of the Kotaku article. Now she feels ripped off because the pump has ended.

Reminder that Kotaku refused to do shit until Lawhead made it public and made it a "BAD LOOK". ResetEra didn't even talk about it until they got the damage control press release from Kotaku. Holding off for days. No one gives a fuck about justice here. It's all a show for money and clout.

"I'm not removing the description of your rape, because journalism. Let me offer a few tips about how to survive the consequences instead". Like, what the everliving fuck? Surely protecting rape victims falls squarely within the category of "good reasons to edit an article"?
It is patently unethical to edit the article without retracting it entirely. They already made it clear that without that specific quote the article could not be published, and now they've removed it, and now it no longer meets their journalistic standards for publishing. That's not even including the fact they've broken their own policy of editing articles, which obviously they break whenever they feel like because the idea Kotaku is anything other than a clickfarm blog is laughable.
"Journalizm".

how was the march btw benji?

I just don’t know that I’d argue Kotaku, which would have major legal implications in mishandling these calls if anyone chose to investigate this deeply, would claim important details backing their version of events if they don’t have such a recording to support their publication. It seems almost conspiratorial to imply Kotaku is lying about the recording, in print.
I like how the defense is Kotaku wouldn't lie because of legal liabilities, but Nathalie is somehow free of those exact same legal liabilities.
The only difference is Kotaku has a lawyer who will tell them publishing something without putting the liability on Nathalie is a problem. Now Nathalie does not want the liability, so Kotaku has taken it by publishing a rape accusation without a substantive quote from the alleged victim. Where's Kotaku's lawyer?
If this was a criminal matter, this liability would not exist since it be a factual matter of public record. Instead it's just a show for fun.
-
how was the march btw benji?
On Rome?
ended up upside down in the end
-
And I don't mean to be conspiratorial, just that my own experience of these situations is such that I would more readily believe the victim than a gaming publication. *shrugs*
I thought GamerGaters weren't allowed on ResetEra.
I completely agree Kotaku should have removed, or at least shortened the article as soon as Natalie asked for it, without question.

Going by their statements, I get the idea that both Cecilia and Kotaku don’t think they actually did anything wrong. They don’t show any remorse for how they handled their reporting, and give zero indication that they’ll try to do better in the future.
That's because Kotaku is openly calling Lawhead a liar, or at very least accusing her of not remember giving explicit permission. This greatly damages her accusations because it puts her reliability as a source into question. Apparently she has severe memory issues, or has an issue with regret and accusing other people of stuff after the fact out of convenience.
-
Instead of saying “we should do better” when confronted, maybe you should shut the fuck up and actually go do that for a change.
What exactly would that entail? I guess Kotaku shouldn't have used such an unreliable source to pin their Jeremy Soule article on. Maybe multiple sources, multiple quotes. Make it more substantive. Now it just looks pathetic.

This is worse than incompetence.
It's goddamned laziness.
I will never say I am the hardest working person, but when I do commit to a job, a presentation, a relation, or whatever other aspect of our lives requires work, I fucking commit to the work. I'm details-oriented; I want to know exactly where that address is (give me a zip code); I want to know how long this presentation is supposed to be and I want to get it down to a science; you want a word count? I'll write it to within 5 words, always over.
That's what I want in someone in a leadership, thus Presidential, role. I think Warren is that person; I though Hillary would be that person. Bernie isn't that person. He's a lazy ass.
Sanders has a history of working on detailed legislation, manages to work with everyone, and is the hardest campaigner in the race. Unless I’ve heard otherwise he’s also the only senate candidate that is flying back and forth during impeachment to still campaign. If there are disconnects it’s because Sanders is nearly always fullfiling obligations, at a rally, or flying somewhere. Granted he should get them more in line if this the plan.
But sure we’ll call him lazy. Makes sense.
Intellectually so, undoubtedly.

Man PoliERA "serious dislike" of Sanders is back to 2016 vintage. :lol
I don't think it's laziness.
He strikes me as someone who is more into big picture ideas than actual details orientation, and simply may not be very good at the latter.
If you're not good at the details, you're extremely easy to manipulate. Look at Trump.

The real take away is that not once, but twice the democrats have allowed a woman to completely sabotage their chances to win. This is despite the fact that beating Trump in an election would be exceptionally easy with a one-sixteenth decent candidate. The democrats wouldn't even have to try to beat Trump, all they need to do is stop doing everything in their power to make themselves look like a bunch of morons.
No joke. The democrats would beat Trump if they went radio silent, did not run any election campaign, and then put a random person no one has ever heard of on the ballot. That's how easy it would be, but they manage to sabotage that. Amazing.

By Aja Romano@ajaromano Jan 20, 2020, 9:00am EST
It’s natural to assess what sociocultural lessons we’ve learned from the previous decade, now that we’ve entered a new one — and whether they’re the kinds that might help us make the 2020s a better era. No honest attempt at such an assessment can be complete without grappling with the messy human dramas and the increasing trend toward polarized, incendiary conversations that emerged in the latter half of the 2010s. And that means contending with the unlikely, unpleasant, and far-reaching watershed movement that was Gamergate.
As it was happening, many members of the media were quick to dismiss it. Sparked by a single blog post published in August 2014, Gamergate was still very much alive and well when an editor asked me, as a reporter who covered it since the very beginning, to write a “recap” of it near the end of that year. The editor wanted a piece that framed the entire event in the past tense, even though the hashtag was still going strong, the women it targeted were still being harassed, and supporters were planning offline actions to take place at upcoming geek conventions.
Soon after I recapped it, other publications wrote about Gamergate as if it were more or less over, too. One predicted that 2015 would be “the year everyone forgot about Gamergate,” noting that it “is still around as a twitter hashtag and a forum topic, but the relevance is waning from its peak in the fall. That’s going to keep happening.”
That did not keep happening. But the media’s insistence that it would provides a key insight into why Gamergate endured, and why it ultimately coalesced into the larger alt-right movement that helped fuel the election of President Trump.

So that's Warren and Clinton thanking Bernie because calling him a dick indirectly.

This actually reminds me, anyone who dislikes Bernie supporters, please avoid using Bernie bros instead as I've seen a sizeable amount of trans women who support him whose dysphoria is triggered when they get lumped in as Bernie Bros

A bunch of fucking clowns just going to keep pretending Comey wasn't a thing.
Trash.
Which Comey thing? The one where Lynch tried to get him to say it wasn't an investigation but an ongoing matter?
You aren't this stupid. Pretending you are isn't a good look.
There was alot of Comey things.
The press release was a response to that request and the Bill/ Lynch meeting.

You know quite well that when someone says "Comey" they are talking about his bullshit letter in October that threw the race.
"Herp derp, yOu MeAn TeH lYnCh?!?" just makes you look distinguished mentally-challenged fellowed.
That's all the same "comey thing" his letter didn't happen in a vaccum.

I understand that initialy there could be miscommunication, but when rape victim asks you to remove account of rape, the only acceptable answer is: I will do EVERYTHING to make it right for you!
This is what ResetEra thinks journalism is. Any journalist worth their salt would absolutely refuse to remove the actual allegation from an allegation article. Only a TMZ newsblog would override their journalistic integrity for optics. Totilo is a hack, but he was forced, he knows this, but it is the nature of modern "journalism".
If your words aren't in print what are they even worth? That's why journalists will fight tooth and nail - it sucks.
Law enforcement has not been mentioned once in the whole article. People are very resistant to the idea that #MeToo is a clickbait foil for journalists, but that's exactly what happened in this instance. No one wants justice, they want to justify their cognitive dissonance of feeding into a mechanism that actively subverts the criminal justice process.

Im sorry if I said anything to make you feel this way, I’m really arguing in good faith and could be 100% wrong.
You wouldn't be the first one on Poli-Era who argued in good faith and got a warning or temporary ban for trolling, I can assure you that.
The discussion culture here is deeply poisoned by that whole "you're either with us / for my left candidate or you just must be an alt-right troll, there's no other explanation!" attitude of some people. Which wouldn't be an issue if mods didn't follow their lead...
Exchanging political views here on Era used to make fun, but these days if your a centrist or want a centrist to win the nomination, you're basically the devil incarnate.

it's almost every thread they make an ass of themselves. They became a mod and using that power just to be a prick in any thread they choose because they can't catch a ban. The day will come when they get de-modded and put on the dead mod pile. Also seems like Sweet Nicole has shut the fuck up finally.

Offering the final piece to review before publication is making it explicitly clear what’s going to be published, no? I understand that the victim might not be in the right state of mind to review it, but Kotaku can’t do much about that. They did their own due diligence before publication, at least, it seems.
ResetEra: the victim is clearly unreliable and should not be believed
Who is the victim at this point? Jeremy Soule?

You are not forced to read articles, posts, threads or even HULU EXCLUSIVE interviews with politicians you don't like.
Usually making such outlandish accusations is bad manners, but I'm guessing the thread will be open for a few more pages before mods close it up and pretend that the current discourse is unimaginable and totally out of the ordinary.
mods help?

Kotaku is flat out calling Lawhead a liar, which you can misinterpret as her being a brainlet who can't remember giving explicit permission. Kotaku is claiming that they didn't rape her because they got consent first, and Lawhead is saying otherwise. It's an unresolved allegation, just like the allegation against Jeremy Soule.

They can just wait a month for him to be down hundreds of delegates vs Biden.

You talk about "them" not wanting to have a discussion, meanwhile in this thread the handful of people that dare to come out as gun owners and believing in their second amendment rights are systematically shut down and belittled. These people have made valid points to their position, have tried to inform that hey not all gun owners are machine gun toting nazi maniacs and yet their attempts at so called "civil discourse" has been shut down at every turn.
You've even got hwalker84 trying to explain the situation as a PoC involved in this, and yet you have people completely shutting down all discussion with him. Even going as far as The Kree telling him he cant wait for him to be banned.
For what? Calmly discussing his and his families side of the situation as a PoC? This place is ridiculous. Are you people looking for a constant echo chamber to sit around and high five each other all day or is this going to be a place where "civil discourse" supposedly "triumphs"?

Why specifically Stadia?
i assume because it uses google data centers, but google was making some big deal about being carbon neutral a yearish ago so that might not be true
-
They're all for communism until they gotta pay.
-
Why specifically Stadia?
Stadia is less energy efficient than local computation since there's added energy overhead at the network level and during video (de)compression. We're talking entire datacenters worth of gear, cables being laid, towers being built, all the vehicles and manpower that goes into it. It's different than just pure YouTube or Netflix where the content is linear, bufferable and theoretically one-time-use. Hell Google was even suggesting there were going to run multiple instances of the same game at different time deltas to try to compensate for lag.

Reminder that Reduce and Repair comes before Recycle. The corporations try to make you forget that while you throw away your two year old iPhone. The iPhone that's long past it's ~300 charge cycle rating, the iPhone without a replaceable battery, the iPhone that will throttle your CPU down to a crawl because of your dying battery.
Meanwhile ResetEra gorges itself on consumer culture. Yaaas Disney I can't wait to go your theme park!!!

IIRC, the point was not to denigrate men who get tricked into having kids, but more to note that portraying it as a "man's problem" felt a little weird since both men and women can perpetuate that.
... how, exactly, could a man trick a woman into having kids?

We'll see: Polls have them in a neck-and-neck race with Bernie leading in some, Biden in others.
If Biden gets the vote, the the DNC has taken the blackpill toward irrelevance and fucking themselves over for millions of years. Glen can reality distortion field it as much as he wants, but it's obvious the working class is getting fucked over and the majority of the DNC (you know, the "working class party") doesn't give a shit.

Well if you really didn't believe in the current state of democracy you'd want to subvert it and damage it. Instead you vote for a party who wants to put a neoliberal in power. That's called being a regressive, not progressive.

I can see why people would argue about the TDS before he was elected. No when he proved that he is e genuinely corrupt and incompetent individual.
Before he was elected he had talked about banning Muslims, building a wall, and was on tape talking about an MO of committing sexual battery (this is the one that gets glossed over by all his supporters while they pretend not to understand why things like the Women's March exist).
Yeah, but he was not in a political position, so many people could excuse him of being just hyperbolic bluffing. That people reacted the way they did didn’t help counter him, it kind of elevated him.
Obviously, at this point is no longer a good excuse.

But Trump is incompetent and dangerous, he's doing all those things presidents have done for decades. He needs to be replaced by Biden who will do all the same things. Maybe the democrats could get a real candidate and get people to vote for him like Trump got votes.
The democrats won't do that though. They'll lean on the idea that people obviously won't vote for Trump because he's incompetent and dangerous, despite having a cleaner track record than the last two presidents.

No, we're discussing how there was a large amount of hysteria involving pre-election Trump and it was all a nothing burger. We're discussing how the people who may have been concerned about those things would now feel confident that Trump is not actually dangerous or incompetent, and that risk was greater in the previous election. Consider the 4 years of non-stop Trump Derangement Syndrome everyone has heard every variation of how Trump is literally doing everything and how it's bad, but at the end of his 4 year cycle, nothing. Nothing has really happened.

I was going to make a thread on it, but fuck it:
Out of curiosity went to watch How to Catch a Predator, or rather YouTube searched it.
I wanted to know why exactly I was so entertained when the setup/payoff is pretty much the same thing every time, seemingly with the same behavior and rationale being thrown around.
What comes up as the first result is part of a series Chris Hansen did for some shitty YouTube channel (he has his own channel now iirc):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJIlftta6fk
And Christ, this explodes like a huge comedy.
The reactions, the commentary... it's like watching a competent parody.
After being deliberately obtuse for long enough, the dude just decides to dig into the pizza and nod along while casually talking to Chris. Chris will disgustedly whip out an effective line, jumpcut to the dude taking a bit of some hanging cheese off his pizza.
It's hard to tell if he is being so casual because he figures he is in a perfect (perceived) legal loophole ( Curb vibes), or what... but the dude even offers pizza to Chris and any law enforcement that might be waiting outside.
Really recommend watching this video, I know I definitely will start watching some more new/classic episodes if they're coming out even half as entertaining as this one.

This is a very well crafted joke in response to:
I just asked @SenSanders for his reaction to @HillaryClinton saying “no one likes” him. He said, “On a good day, my wife likes me, so let’s clear the air on that one.” He then pivoted to talking about impeachment. More tonight on @NBCNightlyNews

It's possible to be angry about what both of them do, otherwise it's just a sport to tear down your opponent. Be critical, don't be haters, when they cross that bridge they've gone too far. This isn't Marvel vs DC bullshit.

Nobody's calling him a monster. Stop being hyperbolic. You cool with Trump, because what Bernie did gave him a better advantage in the general since Hillary had to deal with his campaign's bullshit dividing the party. For nothing. There's a reason the infighting with Bernie's wing is never ending while Obama's disappeared once he got the nomination. That's not a legacy to be proud of.
Bernie's campaign in '16 isn't one who has the moral high ground here. Lots of dumb and awful decisions were made by him and his staff there. But you're ok with him exploiting his embarrassing loss in the aftermath with Trump waiting in the wings because that's what a good candidate does, right? It's just Trump, we'll beat him easily.

I was going to make a thread on it, but fuck it:
Out of curiosity went to watch How to Catch a Predator, or rather YouTube searched it.
I wanted to know why exactly I was so entertained when the setup/payoff is pretty much the same thing every time, seemingly with the same behavior and rationale being thrown around.
What comes up as the first result is part of a series Chris Hansen did for some shitty YouTube channel (he has his own channel now iirc):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJIlftta6fk
And Christ, this explodes like a huge comedy.
The reactions, the commentary... it's like watching a competent parody.
After being deliberately obtuse for long enough, the dude just decides to dig into the pizza and nod along while casually talking to Chris. Chris will disgustedly whip out an effective line, jumpcut to the dude taking a bit of some hanging cheese off his pizza.
It's hard to tell if he is being so casual because he figures he is in a perfect (perceived) legal loophole ( Curb vibes), or what... but the dude even offers pizza to Chris and any law enforcement that might be waiting outside.
Really recommend watching this video, I know I definitely will start watching some more new/classic episodes if they're coming out even half as entertaining as this one.
okay, this guy's galaxy brain is rubbing off on me, apart from the social shame of having this aired, what can they do to him? did he actually break a law? is there such a thing as conspiracy to be a paedophile? James i need answers.

In all seriousness, i recall reading that many of the men on the show got very light sentences or charges dismissed because of the whole entrapment thing. Judges also didn't like that their serious jobs were being used for tv entertainment.
I think one of the reasons the show ended was because cops weren't happy with the prosecution results they were getting.
Playing off full innocence was probably the best play for the gentleman. Admitting to crimes on video is always the bad play.

She deserves better than VP and a woman becoming the President in 2020, especially after Trump beat Clinton, would be an enormous statement. I'd feel awful for Warren if all this only amounted to her serving a man's interests. Sanders should do the right thing and throw his support behind her, then work with her as VP.
But that'll never happen. America is pretty much designed so only men can win the presidency.
"She deserves to be president"
It's 2015 again!
"Only men can win the presidency"

No, because it resulted in a suicide. Much like the creation of Resetera.
Looks like as more episodes aired judges got more sceptical
Five years after appearing in one of Dateline NBC’s “To Catch a Predator” stings, a 26-year-old California man has been acquitted of the charge against him.
After six days of testimony, a Judge threw out the case against Joseph Roisman and criticized the tactics used by Dateline’s partner, Perverted Justice for engaging in entrapment.

On June 1, 2007, the Collin County district attorney's office declined to prosecute any of the 23 cases brought up against those arrested on this installment of the show, citing insufficient evidence.[19] Assistant DA Doris Berry later told Esquire that in many of the cases, there was no evidence that either the suspect or decoy were present within Collin County during their exchanges. She also discovered that the Murphy Police Department had done "literally no prior investigation" before making the arrests, thus making most if not all of them illegal under Texas law

Yes, because a woman giving up her own goals for the sake of a man's career is totally how they should start this decade.
So youre saying the Jewish man should drop out huh? Ok.
So you're saying Sanders being Jewish is more important than Warren being a woman and therefore it's more reasonable she drops out instead?
Are you saying being Jewish is less important than being a woman? (also I never said anything close to what you suggested)

Which is great, it’s brilliant, but you’re suddenly aware there were Sikhs fighting in this war. And you’re like “ok”. You’re now diverting me away from what the story is.’ Delingpole then discussed ‘shoehorning’ different ethnicities into other films, with Laurence saying: ‘It is kind of racist – if you talk about institutional racism, which is what everyone loves to go on about, which I’m not a believer in, there is something institutionally racist about forcing diversity on people in that way. You don’t want to think about [that].’ Later, Laurence praised the war film, saying it was ‘so good’ – with Delingpole quipping: ‘Apart from the gratuitous Sikh.’ The Lewis actor said: ‘He’s great in it as well, it didn’t bother me, but it did sort of flick me out of what is essentially a one-shot film… it’s just incongruous with the story.’

3. Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset and further is AWARE of her value to the Russian government. Her agency in this is irrelevant since it's demonstrably true.
4. Tulsi's lawsuit functions as another useful tool in Russia's ongoing attempt to undermine US democracy and the political climate to create suspicion, division and fear. Tulsi must also be aware of this fact.

Dude, that actor guy actually really sounds like a cunt.
yeah, but he's still an actor; like, as his actual job. James Woods is kind of a cunt too, but is still an actor
Yeah, but getting mad about people not declaring them “actors” seems to be to much, specially since seem to be acting as professional cunts than actors right now.

Wtf is intersex?
I thought the term “shemale” was implying hermaphroditism in porn actors, not transitioned actors (hence the term “cheeseburger” existing).

I mean, you shouldn't. You curr too much about currposting to risk things not going nuclear. Also blah blah bringing it up from off-site is disingenuous whatever.
But any lucky guest/person could post it up and witness the death of another site. I think his comments were way worse than Royalan, and seeing as he's the new owner it could blow up rather hilariously under the new chief of the site.
Just my two cents, but there's enough people on this thread that lack of action is getting kind of lame.
I'm sure it eventually will be posted on REEE. Most of the Kiwis have accounts on there.
I don't really care enough about the site to initiate anything. The luls from the daily WTF threads/posts is enough for me.

Maybe it's just because I haven't paid very close attention to the ResetEra corporate structure but I don't really understand how going in on B-Dubs would even take the site down. If this actually gained traction couldn't Cerium just fire him and replace him with a different General Manager?

Look, as a Cowboys fan, I've seen firsthand the effects of your owner also being your GM.
-
Cerium said he was going on an indefinite hiatus and is just taking the check, giving B-Dubs the ability to operate the site on his own.
For entertainment's sake, an unskilled 'site leader' having to face these accusations would permanently damage the brand. As we saw with Royalan/NeoGAF people make spectacular suicide threads and start repeating "FUCK X", so the mentality of the common user is built to make these fires rather spectacular, even if the site itself doesn't close down.
can't hate cerium for figuring out what we all know; that era is a fucking cesspit of in fighting arbitrarily governed by hypocrites, and anyone with half a brain should either peace the fuck out completely, or just post banal platitudes instead of opinions in any topic that might attract the usual suspects :idont

REEE is full of shit as always.
When devs got their hands on the Xbox One X, they were super excited. Then the directive came down, Xbox One must have the same content as the Xbox One X.
You may only change things visually but none of those changes may effect gameplay. Same content across platforms.
With the Xbox Series X it went the same way. Devs received devkits. Excited. The directive came down again. All games published on Xbox must run on all Xbox devices.
This includes Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox Series X. Lo and behold, the target platform remains the lowest spec platform: Xbox One. (otherwise it won't run to begin with and downgrading something not made with Xbox One in mind is a nightmare).
I haven't quite got the word on PS4/PS5 yet. But it seems like developers won't be forced to make PS5 games run on PS4.
Some developers/publishing are also pushing MS to see if they can at least get them to drop the 'same game, same content' mantra so they can do:
- Switch/Xbox One (X)/PS4 (Pro) version
- PC/Xbox Series X/PS5 version

I've waited all 2019 to make this thread because it was such a hot topic that caused actual hurt to people I know. My suspicions came to light and the apocalypse didn't come. Many of the exclusive games will be coming to Steam this year, and if they don't, you can just use the EGS launcher to play these games if you choose to.
It was such a hot topic and to me right now it seems to have been hot for no reason at all. It's all ironic and silly, I actually think EGS would have died if nobody gave a fuck about it like I did for most of the year.
Some people have even gone as far as using racism and bigotry in the name of what was basically a silly platform war that ended in nothing. We even had a mod harassed out of their position.
We (as people who play games) can do better next time something like this comes around is my point and the whole point of this thread.
We had real humans threatening the life of another human being over this garbage.
That PC community exodus though.
I wish mods handled that better. We still get harassed by “just another launcher” trolls.
It is literally just another launcher.

I've waited all 2019 to make this thread because it was such a hot topic that caused actual hurt to people I know. My suspicions came to light and the apocalypse didn't come. Many of the exclusive games will be coming to Steam this year, and if they don't, you can just use the EGS launcher to play these games if you choose to.

Bronson was a doofus but if anyone feels any genuine sense of harassment, warranted or not, that's shit.
I troll to have fun, not to make someone actually feel like I think they're a lesser person or whatever.
I can say "fuck RedMercury you giant dad douche" whilst knowing that if I ever met him in real life, I'd shake his hand and have a pint with him.
This shit is supposed to be fun. Ironically by trying to crack down on all that stuff, Reeee mods have Streisanded the hell out of it. When it's normalised, it's just fun and games. When it's weaponised it can actually hurt people.

User Banned (1 month): dismissing concerns around homophobia
Ah, because she apologized and has a good voting record.
Now, let's apply some of that consistency you just complained we lack on this board: Does Hillary's outstanding voting record on women's rights and her various public apologies over the years excuse her actions and behavior?
Like I said, if the evidence against Hillary is Mt Everest...this evidence against Tulsi is an ant hill at best.
It needs to be remotely comparable to be whataboutism...Hillary has years upon years of constant association, photos and accepting large donations from Epstein, Weinstein and company. The closest thing to literal slaves in the modern world at the governors house in Arkansas. Tulsi has a handcam video of her at a party and shitty views when she was in her early 20s? Hillary did all this shit as a grown ass woman. Hell, Hillary literally didn’t support gay marriage publicly until 2013 at least two years after Gabbard. It’s not even close.
Also, in response to your last post...I am not calling Era a monolith. I can give you specific users who are doing this.
I’m getting out of this thread now because this is not remotely the hill I want to die on.

Hillary never even mentioned her. She's the one who started acting guilty after what Clinton said lol
Pretty sure Hillary never mentioned Tulsi by name. Just said "one of the candidates" and Tulsi immediately started freaking out and throwing shit.
I love how Hillary didn't even mention her specifically yet she's gotten so bent out of shape over it
It's fake news huh
“They have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far. And, that’s assuming Jill Stein [the Green Party nominee for president in 2016, who received favourable coverage from Russian state media] will give it up, which she might not because she’s also a Russian asset. Yeah, she’s a Russian asset."

BronsonLee was racist towards me, harassed me, and DDOXXed me for saying I prefer the Nintendo Switch Toilet Entertainment System over the EGS. Era mods nuked my account and promoted Bronson to moderator.
No I won't post evidence. Sit down, shut up and believe my ass.

Well, there's not really much that you can do in such a situation. My posting history on that site is open, I told the mods that I give them permission to access my private messages and I've offered to provide my social media details to prove that I've never had any sort of contact with that person beyond public forum posts. Beyond that I can't think of anything else to say on the matter.

They're purely inferior alternatives that actively harm consumer control and push the industry in a direction that restricts user freedom.

Typical REE/GAF overinvestment/over-reaction to online dating.
The guy probably thought she was a flake and decided to cut his losses. I did the same thing many times when people cancelled on me but then wanted to keep IMing/texting. There's a ton of people on online dating sites/apps who will never actually go on a date, they're just using the attention to get an ego boost. The guy sounds like he's been around OLD to know that, hence why he didn't contact her after setting up the date.

I never got why Evilore tried to cultivate such a 'progressive' site when he didn't believe in any of it. I know he didn't care about his mods outside of free labor, but he didn't care to the point where could have told his mods to cut the shit out with playing favorites to the point where his site was mocked endlessly for having its own stick up its butt?
I never got the idea that he "cultivated" anything. He was an absentee landlord who basically left GAF in the hands of overzealous mods like bishop and besada and didn't care about what they were doing, so long as the forum was still generating enough traffic to make him money from the ads. By the time he realized what a shithole GAF had become and demodded bishop, it was too little too late, as the inmates were running the asylum.

She has to be terribly ugly or have an awful profile, because women on OLD generally get dozens and dozens of messages/date requests every day. Why she's fixated on one guy who she's barely messaged with and never actually met not wanting to keep communicating after she cancelled a date is totally puzzling to me and makes me so glad I don't have to deal with that crap anymore.

Booki shows as banned but his account is still active. Can't find a mod post about it.
I'm still amazed she a called him out like that. Great thread :lol

Point out at least one thing that's wrong with what I said and I will explain to you why you're wrong.
Fuck I want to meet you in real life. You're an absolute blast dude. I've never even thought about meeting someone I know from an online space before, but you are the one.
If you're ever in Australia, hit me up. I'd love to explore that beautiful mind of yours over a beer or three.
What city you in?

Got sick, calls rain check on date & he says he doesn’t do reschedule

Seems like a fairly mundane (though frustrating) online dating hiccup that OP seriously overthinks.
What an autistic cunt.
No wonder she's still single after 3 years of online dating

If someone rescheduled a date with me it would make me think they weren't that interested in me and most people aren't thrilled with the idea of going on a date with someone who doesn't really even like them that much.

that seems like jumping to conclusions
maybe their grandma died
and they care about getting with you so much that they wanted to reschedule rather than just cancel
they think your support will help them through this difficult time
-
Anecdotal tale:
The last time I had a potential online date, she texted me the morning of to say that she was sick.
I wished her well and suggested she let me know when she felt better so we could try again.
The end.
:lol
-
if someone cancels the day of the first date without offering a makeup time/date, you move on. it's not very difficult.
her obsessing over this so much proves the dude was right

Managed to avoid these "dating randoms" scenarios pretty much my entire life. "When I was young" (dadsplain) having a social circle that parties was all you really needed to meet people.
Obviously took people out on dates but it was always pretty much after we knew each other, almost always after actually hooking up at a party or night out.

I love all the drama surrounding this dork. The way he fished for attention after stepping down as mod. Pretty sure he went to 8 different threads to put feelers out and no one gave a single fuck. :rofl
Now's he talking about being harassed by random PC autists, who likely said a mean thing to him one time because he wouldn't stfu. :rofl

User Banned (5 Days): Concern Trolling on Sensitive Issues
Warren is getting destroyed right now for being thought as untruthful. Her unwillingly to admit you need to raise taxes on the middle class for her progressive policies is a big negative on her and put a bullseye on her back. Now everything she says or said is coming back to haunt her.
She has good ideas and policies but her obsession with identity politics have hurt her extremely. She doesn't need to "live the situation" to understand the problem. Being dishonest about it won't help when its so easy to fact check these days.

It is. He's a loser in real life (in a level 1 IT job for 10 years) so he was desperate to be a REEE celebrity/personality. His MO would usually to be creating a thread or posting a response that showed what a smug asshole he is, getting called out on it, and then whining about being harassed and saying he was quitting the forum. When he finally did it

And he's obviously still salty for it.

BronsonLee doing an awful lot of meta-commentary for someone who just wants to be left alone. Maybe he should sign up to The Bire or The Farms and tell us what he really thinks.
Imagine thinking random internet people who barely put up with you are your friends. Getting all betrayed over relationships that never existed. Being an empty vacuum of a person who has no friends, talent or creations to call his own. The only thing that warms the nothingness of his insides is his Epic Game Store account where he gets free games like The Bridge.

AP is a specific class that is labeled as such approved by the college board so colleges and universities know that students did university level work and can award college credit.
Be design, middle school wouldn't have AP courses. Bronson Lee might have gone to a 6-12 school or an equivalent and be allowed to take an AP course or two (we had several students at the school I worked at that were able to do it) but not even the smartest kid I know would do a whole slate of AP courses in middle school. They would just take classes at the local JC and take actual college courses.

The decision to run a webserver on Windows is extremely questionable and is most often done out of ignorance. The idea that someone would choose to run Windows but also knows SQL is unlikely.

How do you know you aren't just hitting some sort of Gateway / reverse proxy / any kind of server in between their backend and the internet?
I don't because I haven't dug deep. I shouldn't be able to access their site directly (as in not via CloudFlare) at all if it was configured properly. That in itself is a problem.

For me, it's exciting finding someone you vibe with and having good conversation. Like how do you convince people you aren't a creep or something if you don't chat a bunch?
:hmm
I feel there's a rule here. Those who worry about creepiness incessantly are the most creepy.

His LinkedIn is public. It's basically been a series of tier 1 IT jobs that last for 1-2 years. Probably a combo of not having any real skills and being an ass to his co-workers.
He made a thread about finally getting some Microsoft certification and of course no one cared.
The library? What would you go to the library for? Almost no one needs to go to the library.
If you're stuck in the dorms and/or have a shitty roommate, it's a quiet place to study or take a nap.

I’ve been ghosted countless times. I’ve been given the “I’m sick” excuse. I’ve absolutely been in that position, I’ve just had enough empathy to understand that people genuinely do get sick and need to cancel.
I mean... if you hadn't been so thirsty empathetic for all those 'oh, yea, sorry didn't show i was sick' times, maybe you wouldn't have ended up being ghosted those countless times.

FernandoRocker said:
Not to sound rude, but from my point of view, it seems you were in the wrong here.
If a girl told me that the very day of the date, it would seem like she is making excuses to not see me. I know you were sick, but that's the oldest of the excuses.
When fucking FernandoRocker is the voice of reason in a thread, you know you done fucked up.
The amount of white knighting in that thread is insane. The guy was pretty nice in his reply about the cancellation. It's not like that Jason's Ultimatum guy that sent a bunch of texts calling a woman a cunt because she wanted to meet up at a place he would have to pay $5 for parking or any other of a massive number dating gaffes from the REE/GAF dating threads.
-
The main problem I see with that thread is it's just one of those internet things where people are sort of understandably interested in projecting based on their experience, but it reaches a point where it's just a lousy basis for a forum thread. Like in a discord chat where it'll get buried and forgotten after a half hour it's fine fodder to vent about one's personal life and get feedback from whoever is around at that point in time. But for a forum where it'll just keep getting bumped there is absolutely no need at all for this to have 440 replies given just how fucking little information there is to go on. The dude could very well be an asshole, or he might just have developed a straightforward no-nonsense approach because this isn't his first rodeo. Nobody knows. And in lieu of information to make anything even vaguely resembling an accurate character assessment all you're left with is insane extrapolation.

Is more like Amazon suddenly had a big corporate rival as a online retailer but offered worse services while gatekeeping products that Amazon usually had.

there's an argument to be made that paid store exclusives are bad for the pc market, mostly that competition among different stores help to keep game prices low. also epic doesn't have the features of steam that are very useful like controller customization, game streaming, cloud saves, and such.
the rest of it is mostly autism

I'm always questioned how Epic decided a 88%/12% makes sense and they still don't have basic features like you mentioned set up before they opened the store, or even now that they're been open as a storefront for a year or two.
Eventually, MS is going to take its own PC storefront more seriously, and make it better than it is now (and they have gone a long way of making the Windows store on windows much more usable than they have in the past already).

Also, some of the RE staff were pretty antiSteam because what they perceive as lack of interest of curating (cofff censorship coff) so PC RE usually feel that they are supporting EGS just to spite them.

Reminder that the only reason EGS was shilled so heavily by gamejournos was because of their desire to gatekeep and censor indie games, something Steam has generally avoided doing. Fuck the actual medium. BronsonLee is so fucking dumb he was roped in just because some game bloggers wanted to make a power play to spite problematic games.
Reiterating that EGS users are marks and should be taken advantage of. They have no feelings, they're below human standards.

It’s nice having all your games all in one place for easy management and people have accumulated 15+ years of games on Steam. Epic buying up temporary third party exclusives is an annoyance more than anything, but not the end of the world.

I wish I could be like Bronson and satisfy myself by buying overpriced import junk food for twitter upcummies.
It's Daiso, most items are priced at $1.50. They do sell things at $2, $3, $6, etc. but those would be labeled as such. If they're not, the default price is $1.50
I'm glad to see it's so affordable for Americans to buy the useless plastic widgets that fill landfills.

What’s Daiso? Will it give me a whippit-like high for 10 seconds?

Something can be overpriced while still being affordable; eg Taco Bell food products are overpriced considering it is recycled septic waste, but it’s still not too pricey.

Don’t get me wrong, Bronson is a prime target for mockery. You just sound like a bitter incel stereotype when you aggrandize him that much, like he’s a pretty standard forum poster that takes everything personally, hates anyone that disagrees with him, and is desperate for attention. It’s not that deep.

Jesus, that thread is mental. There's just no perspective there at all. Trans people are what, half a percent of the US population? You just can't expect everything to revolve around your community exclusively at all times. Maybe listen to the lived experiences and the truths of the cisgender people when it comes to methods of reaching a majority of voters?
I feel bad for those self-destructive misery-mongers. I think they're deliberately self-harming and pretending it's a matter of ideological purity.

Extreme ERA vetting :science
So you have no idea who he is but “looks legit” is enough for you?
He name checks so many legit press organisations he's worked for in his bio, he wouldn't be able to do that if it were all made up. I'm sure 5 mins of googling will reveal he HAS worked for them and is a legit journalist. Or he'd be asked to remove them from his bio.
NB he's also "verified" by Twitter which means he has enough followers to have been checked out.

Fuku had weird side-openings in her pants and Okatsu has no pants herself lol, but overall it's still pretty nice and tasteful and they aren't sexualized at all, the camera doesn't ogle them either or anything.
To be fair, traditional Japanese hakama always have those.
I have hakama myself haha. The openings aren't that wide normally and the shirts you'd wear would be long enough to hide the gaps. But as I said it's not a big deal at all, Fuku is fine really.

These are reasonable points if you fear the sort of populism that Bernie symbolizes but?? At the end of the day if you are trying to win an election and have a base composed of young adult voters, it may be good to utilize things like popular podcast host who commentate on UFC games to your advantage.
Thats all Im saying. He's trying to appeal to a wide array of the electorate and I bet a lot of young white americans (especially) share the dumb bigoted views of people like Rogan and unfortunately to win you may need their vote.
Bernie's a populist so he garners this kind of attention regardless.
Also white bigots already exist on the Dem platform? Are we acting like this is new? How many trans posters have called Hillary transphobic or others calling Biden racist? Tulsi? Etc etc just this election cycle.
Bernie isnt changing policies for any of Rogan's viewer base. He got the endorsement and he's trying to get those viewers to vote for him because at the end of the day Bernie is the President for all of America.
If people give shit to Hillary for alienating certain rural voters, why would we turn and ask Bernie to do the same? It just doesnt make any sense if you actually want to win a general election versus another populist (and literal fascist) candidate
How fucking sad of a life must you live to be this defeatist and believe that people cannot change?

Bill Maher? We're talking about him now?
The guy who had a show called "Politically Incorrect?"
The guy who's tried to defend using the n-word multiple times?
The guy who just nodded along to Milo as he spouted transphobic nonsense, and had to rely on his cohosts calling Milo out while he did fuck all and was completely out of his depth and clearly wasn't prepared/didn't care at all?
Bill Maher, one of the guys who was very quick to try and defend and minimize the shit Al Franken did?
Bill Maher, the guy who spouts out all kinds of bigoted stuff when it comes to Islam all the goddamn time?
Yeah, he's on "our side" if "our side" specifically excludes people like blacks, Muslims, transgender individuals, women, etc.
But isn't that the story of our lives. That we never count. That even when people throw us under the bus, even when that's their whole MO, no, just trust people like you, they're good for it, totally, no matter how many times they throw you under the bus. They're totally good for it. They're totally on your side.
I don't know what fucking side Bill Maher's on, but it sure as fuck isn't mine.
Not when he's constantly shooting out bigoted Islamophobic nonsense.
Not when he's just nodding his head while Milo rambles on about transphobic garbage.
Not when he's defending what people like Al Franken did to multiple women and trying to make it "no big deal."
That's not "my side" and I want nothing to do with it.
Oh, I forget. Maher wants legal weed and calls Trump an idiot. So all's good, right? Because that's what "my side" is all about, right?
That defending the n-word, that not giving a fuck about Milo's transphobia, that defending people like Milo and Ann Coulter on multiple occasions, that he himself being an Islamophobic bigot on multiple occasions is all well and good because as long as you support legal marijuana and hate Trump, all's forgiven?
Yeah, no. I have no idea what you mean by "they're on our side" but you and I clearly have very, very different definitions of that because mine sure as fuck doesn't involve people like Bill fucking Maher who throw minorities and women under the bus under multiple occasions. That sure as fuck isn't my side, and I want nothing to do with that hot mess.
Like seriously though. Get out of here with that.
How is Maher on the side of Muslims when he constantly says bigoted Islamophobic stuff? How is he on the sides of blacks, with him defending the n-word and shit? How is he on the side of women when he's defending people like Al Franken? How is he on the side of the LGBT community when he's nodding along to Milo? Etc. How in the world is he on any of our sides?
Or do none of us count and by "on our side," you mean the side of cisgender straight white Christian men who never have to deal with any of that shit?

Worst thing about joe rogan is he’s meant to be a comedian but I don’t think I’ve ever laughed at anything he’s ever said :doge :rogan
His standup is stunningly average comedy. Like there's nothing terrible about it, but it's not thought provoking or laugh out loud funny in any way. I used to like his podcast, but he's basically become a milquetoast Oprah for the brah crowd. I've barely listened to it since Redban left.
RE has an extreme focus on "providing platforms." For some reason they believe it's impossible that someone might look bad in an interview.
I think it's more that they think they are some kind of influencing space and don't want to provide promotion for "problematic" content. Which is hilarious, because something like the Robert Downey Jr episode is over 7 million views and growing - do they think that a couple of thousand more views that would be generated by a thread matters in any way shape or form?

How is this suppose to help Bernie win the primary when the reason he is still down on Biden is because Bernie still hasn't made major moves to attract Black Voters.
Advertising Rogan is going to do that?

Second, I reject the idea that an 18 year old girl should be able to consent to anything so heinous. We draw this line at 18 years old, but that is a joke. An 18 year old, particularly a girl, is not the equal of a man no matter what modern feminist fiction we want to pretend to believe. She should be protected. Actually, I would argue that females should remain under the protection and legal custody of their father, or a related older male if he is deceased, until such time as they are married. I just won't agree that a bubble-headed girl can consent to be in pornography. That idea is just meant to destroy society.

What I don't understand is why do they think the average Joe would be informed about all the stupid shit that upsets them? Why do they think someone working fulltime/actually have a social life offline would know what the fuck gamergate is, an over 5 year old flash-in-the-pan hashtag that's been dead for years? Why do they think the average person would even know about Joe Rogan's more spicy comments? And if you do show genuine ignorance on things/people that ERA hates, they more often than not accuse you of being an alt-right troll.
Do they not understand the vast, vast majority of people don't have time to be online all day trawling through the internet to be angry at shit? Sure, it has become more popular as of late, but still the vast majority of people still don't do that.

Nintendo stans triggered by survey:
https://www.resetera.com/threads/study-claims-playstation-have-most-brand-loyal-fans.166522/
I wonder if they asked any 3DS owners. There is a huge bias to ignore handhelds, but I'd say it's fairly even between Nintendo and Sony when both home and handheld consoles are factored in.
I have more faith that Nintendo fans are more loyal. No matter what Nintendo does they cant go wrong with em.
I expected Nintendo to be firmly rooted at the top. 🤔
I would think Nintendo fans are the most loyal since it's the most unique company of the three. PlayStation and Xbox are, in the grand scheme of things, fairly interchangeable. But what do I know.
I wonder if they asked any 3DS owners. There is a huge bias to ignore handhelds, but I'd say it's fairly even between Nintendo and Sony when both home and handheld consoles are factored in.
It looks like a general survey, not limited to console owners in particular.
And not to be a dick, but you're responding to data from an actual survey to assert a different result based on feeling. That's the kind of ignorance that's brought us flat earthers, anti vaxers, and our lovely "post truth" society.
This survey was conducted in North America, right?
Hold up, not Nintendo?
*pikadoubt*
Eh, idk about that. I'd say Nintendo has the most loyal fans. Their platforms are dominated by first party content, for good reason though.
The Xbox and PS audience seem like they could go either way. Just what platform your friends play on etc...
(most people that are that loyal and like games that much anyway usually buy multiple platforms, so whatever).

BTW, ERA is far more Sony-slanted than even this poll would suggest. If we were to accurately poll Era (i.e, not the poll that's currently running), you'd be probably looking at around a 60/30/10 split for Sony/Nintendo/Xbox respectively.

It's a well known fact that Americans by a large percent don't travel abroad. Part or most of the reason for that is North American continent being an ocean away from most popular destinations so flights out of the country usually start at $800 unlike Europeans and Asians who can fly around to the best spots for much cheaper.
Well now the credit agency Affirm allows you to make a 3,6, or 12 month payment plan for your trip. several sites offer the Affirm payment option after you pick your flight. I use this one,

Death Stranding has left me with a longing paternal feeling...
https://www.resetera.com/threads/death-stranding-has-left-me-with-a-longing-paternal-feeling.166551/
Is it because I've reached this stage of my life? Or has the game evoked this feeling across age boundaries? I'm interested to know.
To me, after completing the game It felt like I'd been cuddling someone I care deeply for for a long time. Just a really warm fuzzy feeling.
Obviously the game doesn't hide the role of the child: being played literally in a tug of war between Sam and Cliff whom they see as their rasion d'etre; being used as a tool to see the world through a younger generation's perspective; representing the key (Sam) to the world's salvation. It's a pretty strong symbol in Death Stranding.
Along with the environmentalism theme, it brings about a strong sensation of obligation. Has it just given me new perspective on responsibility? and by extension, a cathartic need to care for something?
Who else has felt a deep paternal/maternal feeling from Death Stranding?
Loyal Sony fans :donot

People only know him for Fear Factor and UFC commentary (and his podcast I guess). That's it. Nobody knows him as a comedian. So he's basically the American Transhuman.

Nah, you're just approaching your message in a questionably aggressive manner- you're not being valiant or brave or something.
Not to mention you're speaking to Resetera, where the majority of us already feel this way. Go outside and speak to people with opposing views rather than being a keyboard braveheart.

It's a well known fact that Americans by a large percent don't travel abroad. Part or most of the reason for that is North American continent being an ocean away from most popular destinations so flights out of the country usually start at $800 unlike Europeans and Asians who can fly around to the best spots for much cheaper.
Well now the credit agency Affirm allows you to make a 3,6, or 12 month payment plan for your trip. several sites offer the Affirm payment option after you pick your flight. I use this one,
So....uh I checked the OPs post history.
He just recently posted he is 20-30k in medical debt so he is leaving the country in July to avoid it.
Well that makes this thread make a whole lot more sense.

your bold and defiant act of voting which has no chance of changing anything and is primarily performative
that's the most effective thing you can do in your life
not volunteering, donating money, getting a job in a sector where you can help others

Fuku had weird side-openings in her pants and Okatsu has no pants herself lol, but overall it's still pretty nice and tasteful and they aren't sexualized at all, the camera doesn't ogle them either or anything.
To be fair, traditional Japanese hakama always have those.
I have hakama myself haha. The openings aren't that wide normally and the shirts you'd wear would be long enough to hide the gaps. But as I said it's not a big deal at all, Fuku is fine really.

I had no idea who Joe Rogan is until the left painted a target on his back.
Then I started to watch him and didn't recognize he is the Fear Factor guy (which I watched like 15 years ago) :lol
So yeah, I think he is little known outside US even with his huge YT numbers.
In The Netherlands most people in his target audience (15 - 35) know who Joe Rogan is.
In fact, a lot of people know who Jordan Peterson, Alex Jones etc. are as well.
Compared to other European countries we do consume a lot of American media.
Much more than French or Germans.

There still a chance they may pull something from Japanese myth that'll be lady with cleavage.
Really, even if a folk tale or myth has any form of revealing outfit, it probably better to alt the original design to something fitting. I remember Matpat (
The Game Theorists) making a video on the outfits on SMITE's female character and saying it ok since the original design was always revealing.
However, I think you can only go so far when the game doesn't really educate you on these gods when it just looks. I would also say Matpat also tried to defend the DOA outfits so he kinda pulling stuff out of his ass.

Seriousely, does it even matter at that point ? I'm not from the US, so maybe the situation is a bit more prystine from afar, but it's like they're fighting really hard for who's going to lose the presidential election. Bad move to focus on that impeachment bullshit, during an election year, against a guy who's got elected by playing it like he's a victim of the US establishment 24/7. I mean, how can you be that dumb ? :lol
How ironic that KF people want me censored for my differing opinions.
Who gives two shits about your dumbass opinions ? You think you're somewhat important because you're a broke-ass virgin who votes left and post on Thebore ? That's the norm here.

He's a bro to many people on internet, while I fail to remember the last time you made me laugh or even said something interesting that didn't aged like Syrian milk, if that ever happened.
For the record, I'm also convinced if Kiwi wanted to shut your mouth up, it would be shut already. Don't push your unknown-luck too much though : they might notice you one day if you continue desperately to wave your arms at them that much.

I've been thinking this constantly but all I'm getting back is: "BUT UR DUMB ORANGE MAN BAD"
Trump will be able to run as the underdog 'man of the people' challenger political outsider while he is President.
He might even get more votes from Republicans who broke the ranks in 2016 because of the economy and how he neutered Iran or put in all those conservative judges.
It's mind boggling how the Democrats and media have not changed their 2016 strategy at all. In fact, they let Trump get away with blaming the government he runs for homelessness, drug epidemics, gun violence and other problems.
By attacking him and only him they also fuel his "DoNothingDemocrats" campaign. Which is mind boggling considering he's the one sitting in front of the TV eating McDonalds all week in between Golf weekends.
And to top it all off, the Democratic leadership steps in front of a camera and literally says: "If we don't impeach this guy, we can't win the election". :o

I like that they won't explicitly spell out in simple terms what he did wrong. They don't want the normies to actually know the real reason: Joe Rogan thinks transwomen should not compete against females in athletics.
Fuck your political party and it's nominees, the real priority is bunch of white fat-ass male nerds who literally cannot handle being reminded that they are not female, and never will be female.
I hope you guys like Trump, because the cheeseburgers are going to burn your chance, because cheeseburgers ruin everything. They can't help it, they're literally dysphoric, they're mentally ill, but you setup your political platform around people who literally kill themselves upon being reminded of reality.
If you really think about it, this is really abusive towards cheeseburgers. We should be protecting them from these things, not setting them up to be human shields for establishment neolibs. Useful idiots being taken advantage of.

His campaign released a statement about wanting to create a big tent to beat Donald Trump and not everyone in the tent may necessarily think about everything the same way but would share most common values.
Of course, this brought fire and doom down from mount woke.
All we need now is for Hillary Rodham Clinton to confirm what a bigot Bernie is and a Trump tweet about how he's actually a big fan of Rogan and his podcast to escalate things further.
No wonder the doomsday clock was moved to 100 seconds to midnight.

Having said that, I'm indifferent about things like Tropic Thunder and Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Even if the intentions behind the usage of blackface in those properties aren't malicious, I think the overwhelming majority of audiences are merely laughing at the act - and the deeper meanings are completely lost.
I think you're right about the broad and deep general public many times, but in the case of both Sunny and Tropic, people watching those get it. Especially sunny. Now that doesn't mean they automatically stick their landings, but I give both audiences way more credit.
blackface is funny and gets a pass in things I think are funny anyway, and also its fine because only the right sort of people watch the things I think are funny and can appreciate it on a different level

(ResetBanBot) He's a bro to many people on internet
Except event that asshole admits to wanting to only post here because it’s a hostile environment for him?
He knows he unwanted for what he posts here, and yet keeps doing it because... bork gave him a pass over more entertaining posters
You're Mexican too ? Fuck sake, I thought I was developping borderline dyslexia reading your post. Seriousely, you should cut back on smileys, leave the sarcastic-tone out and focus on one single thing at a time, like trying to get your grammar and ideas aligned.
So that's why you're mad at him ? People here don't like him because of his political stances or because he posts on Kiwi Farms, so you follow the herd like a sheep, just to feel your part of something bigger than you ? With that in mind, you dare to make fun of Resetera and their cancel culture ?
At this rate half of the left will boycott the election one way or another. It is all going according to Keikaku.
Imagine lifting your fat ass to vote for Hillary in 2016 and boycott 2020 because Bernie riles you up.
Those poor souls :sabu
The US left :neogaf
Seriousely, does it even matter at that point ? I'm not from the US, so maybe the situation is a bit more prystine from afar, but it's like they're fighting really hard for who's going to lose the presidential election. Bad move to focus on that impeachment bullshit, during an election year, against a guy who's got elected by playing it like he's a victim of the US establishment 24/7. I mean, how can you be that dumb ? :lol
I've been thinking this constantly but all I'm getting back is: "BUT UR DUMB ORANGE MAN BAD"
Trump will be able to run as the underdog 'man of the people' challenger political outsider while he is President.
He might even get more votes from Republicans who broke the ranks in 2016 because of the economy and how he neutered Iran or put in all those conservative judges.
It's mind boggling how the Democrats and media have not changed their 2016 strategy at all. In fact, they let Trump get away with blaming the government he runs for homelessness, drug epidemics, gun violence and other problems.
By attacking him and only him they also fuel his "DoNothingDemocrats" campaign. Which is mind boggling considering he's the one sitting in front of the TV eating McDonalds all week in between Golf weekends.
And to top it all off, the Democratic leadership steps in front of a camera and literally says: "If we don't impeach this guy, we can't win the election". :o
Don't tell me about it bro.
I've never thought Trump was a brillant man by any means, but he's sure way smarter than the people he's competing against, baring for good old Bernie that learned a thing or two from 2016 it seems.
That whole impeachment bullshit is... mesmzerising. :lol
Even without speaking about how Trump will use that back and fourth during his future campaign, Biden's son daily-work is not something you want to put the spotlight on. Joe Biden was supposed to be the prime candidate for democrats, the man who's going to go against the bad and very corrupted Trump and somewhat, those same democrats decide to shed a very bright white light on what his son is doing in Ukraine, one of the most corrupted country in the world, and how his father was or still is involved in it ? If US people didn't get the message on Biden's family suspicious activities, the democrats made they know by now.
If Biden ever win, they're fucked and that shit will fire back. Biden was their only pragmatical alternative to Sanders splitting their voters base really hard.
Damn, if only politic in my country was that interesting...

Actually accelerationism is based and redpilled. Playing within the system is engaging in the culture of mediocrity. The real political game is not played via a vote or an elected representative.

Canadians like incelsiorlef are even dumber for thinking their vote matters. Let alone is some kind of collective event. In theory a PM can be elected by a minority of the Commons, all of whom won with 25% of the vote or something because they're all FPTP elected. Look at the first two Stephen Harper elections for example:
2006: 37% of the vote, 124 seats (155 is a majority)
2008: 38% of the vote, 143 seats (155)
Hell, the last election!
2019: 33% of the vote, 157 seats (170)
No Canadian PM's party has won more than 41% of the popular vote since 1988. 1984 was the last time one won 50%.
The other Commonwealth states are only marginally better at this ratio because their third/fourth parties are more incompetent.
edit: Plus that's with 60-65% turnout, so that's ~21% of the voters electing the minority party in the Commons that's naming the entire Executive Branch. :cancry

The Canadian federal election was called before the count reached any of the western provinces. Incel's vote was not even counted in regards to the head of state, without exaggeration.

For the record, I'm also convinced if Kiwi wanted to shut your mouth up, it would be shut already. Don't push your unknown-luck too much though : they might notice you one day if you continue desperately to wave your arms at them that much. You can ask some of your friends what it's like when it happens.

The Canadian head of state is appointed by the Queen, via the advice of the PM. Although the powers are essentially vestigial.
Both Canada and Australia have had "constitutional crises" when the head of state has exercised their powers against the will of the Prime Minister.
This is why Canadians on ResetERA.com spend all their time talking about American politics, it's admittance that their faux-republican system is irrelevant and they should be annexed as a U.S. territory immediately. FIFTY-FOUR FORTY SIXTY-SIX THIRTY-THREE OR FIGHT!

Rogan/Bernie thread is full of bans for "dismissing bigotry" but I think this one is my favorite ban:
User banned (2 weeks): Dismissive drive-by in a sensitive thread
Joe is left leaning and acknowledges man made climate change. I would bet there is more overlap between the Joe Rogan Podcast fans and Bernie supporters than most here would think. It seems odd to me that so many here think Joe is some Trump supporting conservative. I admit, I only listen to the episodes with guests I want to hear from, but I can’t recall Joe saying a positive thing about Trump.

Hey fuckboy, I don’t need advice about English grammar from a guy who can’t spell “seriously” right.

Yes, the black community feels very strongly about white males competing against females in sports. They're totally alienated by Joe Rogan, MMA weed man, with undoubtedly a much larger black demographic that ResetEra.
Someone should ask what The Coli thinks.

Rogan/Bernie thread is full of bans for "dismissing bigotry" but I think this one is my favorite ban:
User banned (2 weeks): Dismissive drive-by in a sensitive thread
Joe is left leaning and acknowledges man made climate change. I would bet there is more overlap between the Joe Rogan Podcast fans and Bernie supporters than most here would think. It seems odd to me that so many here think Joe is some Trump supporting conservative. I admit, I only listen to the episodes with guests I want to hear from, but I can’t recall Joe saying a positive thing about Trump. If anything he seems blown away by the fact that Trumps incoherent babbling gets people excited.

Who the fuck is dying under Bernie's hypothetical presidency?
Rogan's bigotry normalizes misinformation and gives talking points to bigots. It's not Sanders presidency that's the problem here, and no one said it was, but if you think that signal boosting a bigot doesn't make things dangerous for marginalized people then you just haven't been paying attention. When trans people in this thread are telling you Rogan's rhetoric is toxic, believe it:
I just took a peak at that subreddit and I saw people talking about the trans movement is full of pedophiles and that "hormone blockers" are just code for wanting to groom them. So, kindly fuck off with this idea that votes are the ONLY thing that matter.

Jesus dude. Even if this benefits you you surely can't like or defend it so there's no need to cosset it. It's gross but unlikely to have meaningful numbers so it's OK to just admit it's gross. If Bernie wins the primary and THEN that's their strategy? I'll do victory laps with you and laugh at their strategy. Right now it's tactical and dangerous for Bernie's nomination and the country. You want Bernie primary voters to get uncomfortable that they're being played it do you want them to work their asses off to get him elected?

And I am arguing that prioritizing disaffected casual bigots is a net loss in voters compared to disconnected marginal Dems and untapped communities of color.
Take Texas as an example, it's not a Red State, it's a non-voting state with a huge young, Latinx population that just doesn't show up even though they are more predisposed to robust safety nets and Social Justice. Where is the solidarity going to come from when Bernie has to walk on egg shells the next time Rogan or any number of the other political dingleberries littering Bernie's floor decides to let their freak flag fly.
Who is advocating for the prioritization of bigots? The Bernie Sanders campaign, who is supported by a majority of women and people of color?
And just who are these bigots? JRE is ranked 1st or 2nd any given day on podcast charts. It gets 200 million downloads every month. You couldn't prove a majority of these people are racists and transphobes even if you tried.
I just provided you an alternative to laughing at Rogan's bigoted schtick, but you decided to defend the honor of those slighted 200 million downloads. Curious
More to the point, why are we betting on the political discernment of folks who enjoy slack-jawed shock jocks?

It's becoming a useful wedge issue to use in some places. Idaho's legislature is looking to pass a bill outlawing birth males participating in female high school sports for example. In certain cities you have the opposite kind of purity tests.

It has more to do with being directly associated with Identity Politics than Trans issues being a big deal by itself. Part of the reason why RE hates Bernie is that he is not exactly fan of identity politics and is more concerned about class and distribution of wealth.
Is more complicated than that, obviously, but there is a reason why many of the biggest shitposters on RE hate Bernie and his followers.

User Banned (permanent): dismissing bigotry, history of similar behavior
If Joe Rogan’s massive normie fanbase got behind Medicare For All that’d be pretty cool.
Here's the problem, you could probably get a lot of them on board, which means hundreds of thousands if not millions more people supporting MFA. But there are still plenty of purists that would rather dismiss Rogan and all his fans as bigots. And this purity bullshit is a big reason why we have a hard time in elections. I get it, we all need to be much more woke and PC but lets focus on teaming up to get that fat orange blob out of office first, then we can work on the other stuff.

The problematic language OP outlined I interpret as just satirical or played out jokes for the purpose of being satirical and played out. I highly doubt they are trying to push a bigoted agenda, and if people are being radicalized or their racist/sexist beliefs are strengthened because of a 6 second joke in a 15 minute video then I'm not going to blame the creator of that video.
And for every problematic quip they have entire discussions gushing about movies like Us, Get Out, or specific actresses; Jay says Daisy Ridley carried TFA because she was so charismatic, and both of them liked Daphne Keen in Logan.

Righteous anger is more blinding than regular anger. Your methods hold no weight and exist only for catharsis, hurting people in the process. I'm sure there's more reason behind this thread than getting off on shaming people right?

how far back is this adam387 meltdown, poliera is so draining to even skim through
edit:
To me it’s based on my religious beliefs. I’m not a forced birther or any of that shit. I think there’s no objective truth on abortion or the idea of where life begins. Therefore, I have my beliefs but they are no more valid than anyone else’s. Therefore I would never legislate based off of my belief system. It’s just my opinion and deserves no more weight than anyone else’s. Except that I am always right about everything and I have never been wrong. Ever.
So, just so I'm clear on this:
We're going to spend $30 trillion on M4A that will uproot and destroy a vast section of the US Economy.
We're going to spend $16 trillion on Bernie's version of a Green New Deal, that requires more workers that actually exist.
We're going to forgive $1.6 trillion in student loan debt.
We're going to spend $2.2 trillion on "free" college that has zero cost controls.
oh, and doesn't Bernie want to forgive all medical debt too? No idea how that would work just from a HIPPA perspective let alone financial one.
And this is considered a winning General Election strategy?
Like, here's the thing. Nominate Bernie. I literally don't care. I pretty much hate Bernie and Biden, and one of them is going to be the nominee. They're both terrible in different ways. Klob is horrible. Pete is horrible. Everyone is horrible. Warren is fine, but she's clearly not winning because America is full of sexist fuckwits. But like, you cannot legitimately believe these items are going to pass with 51 votes (assuming we win the senate.) Mathematically it's absurd. From an electoral strategy, it's absurd. It's fine to want nice things, and I do not believe that we need to run the government like a business, but to pretend 1/10th of this is actually doable...it's just not.
But, specifically as it relates to student loan debt and free college....forgiving loan debt is whatever. I'm not opposed to it. if you can make the math work and get the votes, then it's totally good. I do think something should be done for folks who did pay off their loans though, be it a refundable tax credit or what have you. (I'm still paying off mine for what it's worth, and would get very little relief under Warrens plan which I at least think makes more sense than Bernie's).
The bigger issue I have is with the whole free college thing. The problem with higher education costs is not solved by making it "free," it's just pushing the burden of funding directly on the federal government. While that's fine, it's not actually getting to the root of the problem. The biggest issue with Bernie's plan (and Warren's too I believe) is there is very little if any cost control measures in the bill. State colleges set their tuition rates through different systems, all of which are dependent upon the legislature in question. Some states have an independent board, some of them have it set through the legislature, some have multicampus boards, etc. If we are literally just going to write a blank check to the state of Ohio to set its tuition rates at whatever it damn well pleases, and we're just going to pay it, there is no incentive for us to keep our tuition lower than another states. In fact, we should just raise it to whatever the most expensive school is charging, because the government is just going to pay it anyway. For this idea to work, you absolutely have to have cost control measures. You honestly probably need some kind of penalty assessed against students who fail to complete their degree within a certain time frame or fail to complete a set number of classes too. It's not unreasonable to require that everyone have some skin in the game.
But the solution to stuff costing too much is not just "Make it free." It's A solution. It's not a good solution.
Correct, because a Bernie presidency, legislatively, will look just like a Biden presidency, which will look just like a Warren presidency, which will look just like a Klob presidency without us having to hide the bodies of everyone she murders. I'm sure Hillary could let her know who she uses to hide the bodies though.
What I will say though, is I think it does look different on the campaign trail. If you're going to campaign on things that will require fairly large tax increases, that's going to be a big yikes from a lot of folks.
This is a bad argument because we actually have cost controls when it comes to public schools.
All I am saying is that if we are going to have "free" college*, you absolutely have to pair that with extensive cost controls.
*(We're not going to have free college.)
So, no, fuck this guy. Fuck Bernie for going on his show (or any other Democrat who ends up there). This guy is shit, and we do not need to defend every stupid ass decision Bernie and his team make. Because this hsit is trash. And I don't give a shit if it moves the needle in the primary one way or another. it's still wrong.
Here are the two things about the Rogan whatever.
First, going on the show is stupid enough. We talked about this last week. it doesn't matter that Bernie wasn't pushing shitty sexist, transphobic or racist ideas on the show. The problem is, if you're a young 18 year old kid who likes Bernie, you check out the show because your dude is on there. You like the content because, hey, it's Bernie. You like him. And, since Bernie went on the show...Bernie clearly also likes him. So, you start checking out more shows. Oh, hey Alex Jones? I think I know who he is. Oh, they don't like trans people? Hmmm...maybe they have a point....and now we've got a kid walking down the path to being a piece of shit because kids are morons and associate Bernie with this asswipe. This is how people literally become radicalized and fall into the alt-right, shit stain camp.
Furthermore, going on the show was one level of stupid, accepting an endorsement and running a Twitter ad on it is a WHOLE other level of stupid. Will anyone in the primary hit him on this? No. Of course not. I don't know if Joe Biden knows what a podcast is. But, if Bernie somehow gets to the General election and ends up doing an interview with someone who isn't super friendly to him (and believe me, most won't be with his history). The first time Bernie goes out and says Trump associates with racists and sexists and transphobes, you better believe some intern will have been sitting on this "Then why did you tout the endorsement of a sexist, homophobic, racist, transphobe?" And then Bernie has to explain. When you are explaining, you are not wining. In no universe should an endorsement have the potential to cause you a problem. This does. So don't do it. You gain nothing.
I’m gonna say my piece on this Rogan thing one last time.
A lot of us point out how one of our concerns about Bernie is how we don’t trust him to prioritize our issues in the face of his worship at the alter of the white working class bro’s. When we bring up that point, we are constantly told that Bernie wouldn’t do that. That he’s a great ally on LGBT issues. That he’s a string supporter of women’s rights and he’d never ever sacrifice those to benefit his policy positions.
But then he does shit like this. The minute he can tout an endorsement from someone he thinks will help him with his glorious class over everything else revolution, he shows us that he’ll accept the support of someone who has no qualms with transphobia or racism if it helps that glorious revolution.
And when some of us point it out a lot of his supporters refuse to acknowledge our concerns and keep telling us to give him the benefit of the doubt. He had done nothing to earn that and everything to continue to get side eye. Don’t just listen to queer and minority voices when you like what we say about your boy. Listen when we complain too. Especially when we complain. Because telling us we shouldn’t have a problem with something we clearly do have issue with is real shitty. It shows us all we need to know about how valuable we supposedly are to this coalition.

Yet seems completely lost on the collective that is REE.

I'll just add again that this was an unforced error. Rogan made the endorsement, Sanders could have let it be. Rogan would have spread it among his fans himself. But Sanders chose to put the concerns of those affected by Rogan's bigotry aside to capitalize on the endorsement. He didn't need to do it.

Ugh, it's incredible to me that the Democratic platform and candidate is now being decided by more asshole men and y'all think that's ok. And that some of y'all are so quick to cast aside the actual minorities who vote in every Democratic election because white men's votes are more important than ours. This is the primary, not general election. Bringing a group of men who already wouldn't vote for a woman or person of color doesn't help people like me, a black woman. That's why many of us don't trust Sanders or his supporters. How can I expect him to put my interests on the table once he's in?
Edit - and by asshole men, I mean Rogan fans.
Lol, again I have no idea why people think shitheel transphobes are the key to winning.
Also this will be underrated:
Not a Rogan fan but I'd take his endorsement over NYT with their history of racism, anti-Semitism, warmongering, etc. If I had to pick one that has turned more minds to regressive thought it would be them. I believe Warren and Klobuchar should rebuff their endorsement, personally.

It's fine to want nice things, and I do not believe that we need to run the government like a business, but to pretend 1/10th of this is actually doable...it's just not.
But, specifically as it relates to student loan debt and free college....forgiving loan debt is whatever. I'm not opposed to it. if you can make the math work and get the votes, then it's totally good. I do think something should be done for folks who did pay off their loans though, be it a refundable tax credit or what have you. (I'm still paying off mine for what it's worth, and would get very little relief under Warrens plan which I at least think makes more sense than Bernie's).
The bigger issue I have is with the whole free college thing. The problem with higher education costs is not solved by making it "free," it's just pushing the burden of funding directly on the federal government. While that's fine, it's not actually getting to the root of the problem. The biggest issue with Bernie's plan (and Warren's too I believe) is there is very little if any cost control measures in the bill. State colleges set their tuition rates through different systems, all of which are dependent upon the legislature in question. Some states have an independent board, some of them have it set through the legislature, some have multicampus boards, etc. If we are literally just going to write a blank check to the state of Ohio to set its tuition rates at whatever it damn well pleases, and we're just going to pay it, there is no incentive for us to keep our tuition lower than another states. In fact, we should just raise it to whatever the most expensive school is charging, because the government is just going to pay it anyway. For this idea to work, you absolutely have to have cost control measures. You honestly probably need some kind of penalty assessed against students who fail to complete their degree within a certain time frame or fail to complete a set number of classes too. It's not unreasonable to require that everyone have some skin in the game.
But the solution to stuff costing too much is not just "Make it free." It's A solution. It's not a good solution.
Correct, because a Bernie presidency, legislatively, will look just like a Biden presidency, which will look just like a Warren presidency, which will look just like a Klob presidency without us having to hide the bodies of everyone she murders. I'm sure Hillary could let her know who she uses to hide the bodies though.
What I will say though, is I think it does look different on the campaign trail. If you're going to campaign on things that will require fairly large tax increases, that's going to be a big yikes from a lot of folks.
This is a bad argument because we actually have cost controls when it comes to public schools.
All I am saying is that if we are going to have "free" college*, you absolutely have to pair that with extensive cost controls.
*(We're not going to have free college.)
So, no, fuck this guy. Fuck Bernie for going on his show (or any other Democrat who ends up there). This guy is shit, and we do not need to defend every stupid ass decision Bernie and his team make. Because this hsit is trash. And I don't give a shit if it moves the needle in the primary one way or another. it's still wrong.
Here are the two things about the Rogan whatever.
First, going on the show is stupid enough. We talked about this last week. it doesn't matter that Bernie wasn't pushing shitty sexist, transphobic or racist ideas on the show. The problem is, if you're a young 18 year old kid who likes Bernie, you check out the show because your dude is on there. You like the content because, hey, it's Bernie. You like him. And, since Bernie went on the show...Bernie clearly also likes him. So, you start checking out more shows. Oh, hey Alex Jones? I think I know who he is. Oh, they don't like trans people? Hmmm...maybe they have a point....and now we've got a kid walking down the path to being a piece of shit because kids are morons and associate Bernie with this asswipe. This is how people literally become radicalized and fall into the alt-right, shit stain camp.
Furthermore, going on the show was one level of stupid, accepting an endorsement and running a Twitter ad on it is a WHOLE other level of stupid. Will anyone in the primary hit him on this? No. Of course not. I don't know if Joe Biden knows what a podcast is. But, if Bernie somehow gets to the General election and ends up doing an interview with someone who isn't super friendly to him (and believe me, most won't be with his history). The first time Bernie goes out and says Trump associates with racists and sexists and transphobes, you better believe some intern will have been sitting on this "Then why did you tout the endorsement of a sexist, homophobic, racist, transphobe?" And then Bernie has to explain. When you are explaining, you are not wining. In no universe should an endorsement have the potential to cause you a problem. This does. So don't do it. You gain nothing.
I’m gonna say my piece on this Rogan thing one last time.
A lot of us point out how one of our concerns about Bernie is how we don’t trust him to prioritize our issues in the face of his worship at the alter of the white working class bro’s. When we bring up that point, we are constantly told that Bernie wouldn’t do that. That he’s a great ally on LGBT issues. That he’s a string supporter of women’s rights and he’d never ever sacrifice those to benefit his policy positions.
But then he does shit like this. The minute he can tout an endorsement from someone he thinks will help him with his glorious class over everything else revolution, he shows us that he’ll accept the support of someone who has no qualms with transphobia or racism if it helps that glorious revolution.
And when some of us point it out a lot of his supporters refuse to acknowledge our concerns and keep telling us to give him the benefit of the doubt. He had done nothing to earn that and everything to continue to get side eye. Don’t just listen to queer and minority voices when you like what we say about your boy. Listen when we complain too. Especially when we complain. Because telling us we shouldn’t have a problem with something we clearly do have issue with is real shitty. It shows us all we need to know about how valuable we supposedly are to this coalition.

oh, and doesn't Bernie want to forgive all medical debt too? No idea how that would work just from a HIPPA perspective let alone financial one.
:lol oddly specific.
I can't believe they got yanked around by this bot.

Sure, a bunch of youtubers/streamers have met theirs fans in a much creepier way, basically just to get a fuck. But when it leads to a long term relationship, even marriage, i don't see much issues.

Diabetes is pretty prevalent in my family. I've got a great diet, but with my luck, I'll end up with it and struggle.
That or HIV, maybe? I uhh, don't wear condoms. Ever. And I have a lot of sex. I get tested frequently, but, yeah. That could always happen.
Breeders :rejoice
Last time I checked, HIV never killed anyone and it is now considered a completely manageable condition.
This dude has never had sex.

He's promoting an endorsement from a guy you can't event endorse on this site because he's such a shitbag!

So, knowing this, don't you think maybe you need to reconsider your "banned" list REEEsetera?

Plus there is apparently a cure for AIDS now (not talking about HIV antiretrovirals). Full-blown cure.

Again, most of the recurring characters are incredibly annoying and/or awful people. Jean-Ralphio. Jean-Ralphio’s sister. Jean-Ralphio’s father. Bill Dexhart, the councilman always involved in sex scandals. Jeremy Jamm. The Douche. Joan Callemezzo, the TV host. Marcia Langman, the racist and homophobic person with the gay husband. It’s really weird how it’s made out as a joke how Ron’s first ex-wife Tammy who delivered him and was his school teacher also sexually abused him as a kid. The whole town loving Bobby Newport. Literally everyone who appears in the town halls. I could go on.
