Nintendo's last shot at the console business, and consumers resort to buying the things you put on the bottom of couch feet to make sure the screen doesn't get fucked up.

Samuel L. Jackson has said some greasy stuff like this in the past. He's also an acting school snob. He doesn't seem too far removed from his character in Django Unchained in some ways, to be honest.

Slow news day at Kotaku?  Why would they even put that "story" up?  Thread is also predictably filled with

There are only so many articles you can bleed out of Overwatch, fanart, cosplay or Overwatch cosplay fanart.

 

The worst/laziest are the posts jason schreier clearly wrote based on a NeoGAF thread. NeoGAF will make a new thread about the Schreier article about NeoGAF and then Schreier will happily prance around the new thread so everyone can blow him for writing a NeoGAF article so they can talk about NeoGAF on NeoGAF.

I wouldn't blame people for being interested in Chinese success at exporting cultural products, the article posted though is kinda... heh. Shallow assumptions in what constitutes "soft power" for one, a rather narrow conception of what sort of culture may contribute to it and a rather dubious assessment of their cultural exports (it's not reaching US shores en masse, but do they even want to ? What's the state of their cultural influence with their near abroad however ? I mean besides the fact China is bankrolling Western blockbusters now...).

AFAIK there's actually quite a lot of Chinese contemporary artists making the rounds in Europe, it's a fairly vibrant scene in spite of the regime.
 

It's Foreign Policy publishing a piece about China written by a Russian expert who apparently never read any literature written in Russian from... let's say 1928 to 1981, of course it's terrible.

The problem is they think that place is more important than it actually is, I guess it's how you have to reason with yourself when you've sunk 10 years of your life primarily into curating your standing on a video game forum.

I don't believe that there are a spectrum of gender possibilities. If someone has a sex change they haven't really become a member of the opposite gender, they have just had extreme plastic surgery. I have no objections to anyone going down this route, but to me gender confusion is just a form of mental illness.

So obviously I wouldn't teach my kids that there is a spectrum. That being said I don't go in for ridiculous gender stereotypes (pink for girls etc etc), and let my children follow their own interests.

The most damaging thing for transgendered people may be the trans community and lobby. The political aims of the group are ridiculous and dangerous. They should be pushing for a less gender binary view in Western countries, but instead they push BS like a gender spectrum with an unending amount of genders. It's made people's lives and health a proxy war between science and social science.

It's too easy to sit outside of that community and say that. This is one of those cases where you honesty cannot say "As a white male, here's the most damaging thing for transgendered people."

Of course that's my opinion on a forum, so whatever. Who gives a shit.

The most damaging thing for people who are trans are violent transphobes, of which there are still far too many.

It has nothing to do with me. The political aims are not about the good of the individuals. They will prioritize what escalates their politics and power over what empowers Trans people or helps their acceptance. It is the nature of the beast that is the problem. If there was a militant "etiolate political lobby" it would do the same bad shit to me.

Statistics documenting transgender people's experience of sexual violence indicate shockingly high levels of sexual abuse and assault. One in two transgender individuals are sexually abused or assaulted at some point in their lives. Some reports estimate that transgender survivors may experience rates of sexual assault up to 66 percent, often coupled with physical assaults or abuse. This indicates that the majority of transgender individuals are living with the aftermath of trauma and the fear of possible repeat victimization.

In the NCAVP 2009 report on hate violence, 50 percent of people who died in violent hate crimes against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people were transgender women; the other half were male, many of whom were gender non-conforming. Sexual assault and/or genital mutilation before or after their murders was a frequent occurrence.

According to another [study], 50 percent of transgender people surveyed had been hit by a primary partner after coming out as transgender. LGBTQ youth report a 30 percent incidence of dating violence, compared to 9 percent for heterosexual students.

Sad thing, he stated simple facts on one side, and an opinion that as of now can't be refuted, as per definitions such as the one given by the Mayo Clinic.

Mental illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions — disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors.

Many people have mental health concerns from time to time. But a mental health concern becomes a mental illness when ongoing signs and symptoms cause frequent stress and affect your ability to function.

A mental illness can make you miserable and can cause problems in your daily life, such as at school or work or in relationships. In most cases, symptoms can be managed with a combination of medications and talk therapy (psychotherapy).

That's the thing, mental illness has degrees, just like any other thing. Shades of grey. The problem is that we refuse to call some things mental illnesses for what they are because of the taboo that comes with it.

Also, lots of self-diagnosed mental disorders, like this girl:



But that's generation snowflake, alright.

Girl got rekt by veteran btw.




Let's put it this way, what generation snowflake is asking for is for you to break up with your SO/not display any form of affection or relationship in public because they don't have one and because of that they have...

[etiolate]

Yeah, but says who? You?

Says the nature of the group. Too much a militant tone. Too much stuck in social justice rather than action. Being someone's political tool won't reduce suicide numbers.

My statement was that the community/lobby is most damaging. That doesn't mean it's the most physically violent thing to happen to a trans person, but that the problems present for a group of people may come second to the wants of a social machine.

Just in a terrible attempt to illustrate this: You're giving me the argument that I shouldn't speak for a marginalized group or share my view in this manner because of some group you stick me in. That idea itself comes from the very idealogy that is too prevalent in the trans community and lobby, and one I feel hurts trans people in the long run.

Human beings are social creatures. We advance and learn and shape the world by hearing what other people have to say. If I am correct then my not speaking upon this ends up hurting those very marginalized creatures. To think that we should just shutup when we have concern because of some cultural class stratification is harmful. Eventually, we all hear something from someone we are sure can't possibly understand that ends up being useful to us.
