Blind No Man's Sky worship, pedophiles and unironic ISIS supporters: buy your GAFGold account today!

There are a handful of people on GAF literally calling for killing police and Trump supporters. There are at least 2 actual ISIS supporters. That won't get you banned, but talking about Tyler's Bogus European Vacation will get your account erased.

Did I miss something?

I can remember at least one blatant, open ISIS supporter like a year and a half ago but he was banned, can't remember his username.

The amount of damage control More_Badass does for No Man's Sky borders on impressive. I've never seen a Gaf mod make mouth love to a game's asshole like this before. Bish was even more appropriate when it came to his Turok involvement.

More_Badass goes out of his way to be an ambassador for all things indie.  Being a mod doesn't mean you need to be a PR mouth piece.  It's fucking weird, yeah

Why take the side of people saying reviewers shouldn't get advanced copies? Doesn't matter if its Half Life 3 or Babyz on Wheels, reviews coming out before day 1 or reviewers playing the game before day 1 isn't some hefty task.

One guy was open and it took him a few months to get banned because he was a Muslim. The other is one who updates all the ISIS attack threads for "info", but all of his posts are straight up ISIS press releases and he never actually condemns any of the attacks.

Lol, they take forever to ban an ISIS supporter, but I get banned in an instant for calling out a guy sleeping around, spreading his HIV.

The Hilldawg/FF thread is amazing.

Someone says they're a feminist, but thinks the tweet was bullshit. Someone else comes in and says you can't say who is or isn't a feminist because you disagree with them (which wasn't what was said to begin with), then claims that person can't be a feminist and is in fact most likely a sexist bigot using feminist language.

 

Well, what do you expect? When they've eradicated every problematic poster from their yass queen safespace, they will inevitably start to lash out against their own. GAF is an ouroborous of virtue signaling.

Not yet. Got a perm warning though. Thankfully, I got unbanned in time for Ghostbusters fuckery.

I don't really see it as a burning bridge. I mean I can understand why it could be viewed that way, but it's more "I'm sick of the GOP and thereby I'm putting myself into the independent voter block" instead of "fuck you guys for nominating Trump." I mean if she did this RIGHT after Jeb dropped out? Maybe that'd be a burning bridge. But this just seems like a reaction to the fact that the GOP is imploding on itself and she's just using Trump as a reason for it.

Well, who knows ? She seems to have some strong Bush entries, she'll be fine I guess. Still she is severing ties and making a bit of a fuss about it, she does stand to lose something in the process : for all the jokes about the GOP dying, it will probably still be around past election and they may not come to their senses about Trump or his brand of vulgarity even in case of defeat. The dude I quote beelining directly to the cynical, juvenile interpretation of that strikes me as a bit ridiculous : I think most people experience with work and politics is that you're more likely to have to tow the line at the cost of sucking up your own opinions than reverse...

I remember having an argument about feminism with someone who argued unless you believe in dimensional feminism you may as well vote Republican.

Now, if only he realized that his comments apply to GAF at large..

[benjipwns]

After posting that it did bring to mind the idea that the "Yaaasss queen SLAY" hivemind movement is excellent evidence of the lack of trust in American republican institutions.

Both the Trump and Hillary supporters are out like mad banging on the "think of the Supreme Court for the next generation" point over all others. It may be an entirely valid one regarding the state of our institutions, but that doesn't mean it's a good thing.

[benjipwns]

It's also an odd acknowledgement that your views can't gain democratic legitimacy through the process that you depend so greatly on control of the executive and a lifetime appointed body that doesn't have to answer to anyone but itself.

Again, may be true, and I wouldn't want a reversal of Obergefell or whatever either, but mutually assured escalation isn't a healthy thing. You want to win like the 2001 Lakers, not the 2002 Lakers.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
The messages pop culture sends to men and boys about our own manhood are consistently both limiting and harmful. So this new video series focuses on deconstructing the representations of masculinity we see embedded in movies, television, comic books and video games. The critical analysis I’ll be using is very much inspired by and rooted in feminist theory. It’s through that lens that I’ll be highlighting the ways boys and men can be harmed as a byproduct of hypermasculinity. But this project won’t only focus on the negative. I’ll also be highlighting more positive examples of manhood in media.

Sleuth: All patrons will be invited to backers-only comment threads for each video, where you can participate in conversations without fear of harassment. It’s notoriously difficult to have meaningful online discussions about gender on social media because open comment sections always descend into a toxic mess when these issues is discussed.

The hero worship on both sides is a sign of the massively growing underclass and their hopes that one man or woman will fix it.  At this point we're just applying band aids in hopes we can keep the system chugging for just a little bit longer.  At some point people will come to the conclusion that the whole thing is fucked and needs a reset.  That reset won't be pretty and will likely have an ugly and undesirable outcome.

Why are we not presenting a united front in support of her? Other than the desire to get clicks, I honestly don't see one

I will openly criticize every action as President which I do not agree with. ... Therefore, I do not feel the need to nor will I openly criticize her at this juncture, when there are much bigger fish to fry.

Oh and for the record, my GF is a strong feminist and she loves Hillary.

Criticism is more effective when it is constructive, which will be during the presidency.

I can't help but constantly think wow, Obama 07/08 really was one of a kind huh 

I could be proud of him as a black guy without hesitation or hedging or relying on the spectre of his opponent. Not to mention the fact that he almost never brought up the historical nature of his nomination/presence. Whereas Hillary's baggage clearly overrides the historical nature of her campaign for many people. Not just men, but young women who clearly don't give a fuck about her. It's the exact opposite of the 07/08 Obama situation, and no I don't think it's due to the candidate's age/generational gap given how much young people love Bernie fucking Sanders.

It's moreso young people seeing her blatant flaws and not being impressed by her resume. Hence why I'm always stunned to see young people, specifically young gay people, treat her like they treated Obama 8 years ago. Even her gay marriage views...she was hedging as late as 2012, waiting to see what the election would bring.

You have to remember though, a vast majority of them are Andy's age and were playing Pokemon or were in diapers around that era like Andy was. So a lot of them don't remember that she flip-flops or is distrustful in general.
