I’m pretty sure the right-wing would not invent transgender, they would prefer to just call trans women “dudes” or “she males”. Maybe troon if they want to spice it up with some racism.
Right, seriously, I thought many of them accepting "cheeseburger" was a positive step. Then I learned on NeoGAF.com that was the most vile thing you could say.

This was a few years after all the TrannySurprise tab jokes of course.

Really, TrannySurprise is a pretty progressive website. From what I've seen of it, the men upon being "surprised" don't react by violently beating them to death or even running away, instead they often stick that dick right in their mouth, and sometimes even their butt. Very empowering!

You'll get a kick out of the second link Benji. It is by one of the most radical trans women in America (plz read Whipping Girl).
The discussion about redefining terms in the comments of that post are interesting, two years hence, as I clicked onto her main page to see the newest content which included Marcuse Revisited: https://medium.com/@juliaserano/refusing-to-tolerate-intolerance-f24c1bff513f

Throughout the piece and the connecting ones she uses the term "free speech absolutist" as a negative, and joins much of the last days of NeoGAF.com in the opinion that such positions "cannot be taken seriously." All while conflating those who confuse "free speech" for "speaking without any reputation or social consequences to ones self" and those who consider "free speech" as "lack of state/legal suppression" in a way that often leaves her walking past criticizing the impossible former, for advocating against the latter and in favor of state suppression of speech/press/assembly/etc.

For example, the middle piece in the series which actually seems more in line with Marcuse's assertion that ideas themselves are forms of violence and should be suppressed by the state like any violence while quoting from a recently "discovered" newly popular segment of Popper's Open Society let alone merely criticizing "speaking without any self consequences":
Quote
The second camp includes those of us who have witnessed the unrelenting rise of white nationalism (or the “alt-right,” as it is sometimes euphemistically called) online over the last several years — their recruitment of hordes of young white men, their campaigns of hate speech and harassment (e.g., Gamergate, attacks on Leslie Jones, and others) designed to intimidate and silence women and minorities. Now, we are watching the architects of that movement being treated as celebrities and playing lead roles in the Trump administration, and we cannot help but feel that there is something far more substantial and grave going on here.

...

more severe suppression may ultimately be necessary to stop it.
If you've entered the realm of ideas being literal acts of violence and as such needing to be suppressed by the Trump Administration then you aren't taking a stand against "free speech absolutists" you're taking a stand against concepts of liberty and democracy that predate the text of the First Amendment by hundreds of years.

It's not a slippery slope argument (which she complains about) to point out your entire argument is based on the premise that ideas should be illegal. You're ruling out not "absolutism" but the very possibility of the free exchange of ideas.

Another thing we can thank Jack Kirby for. The New Gods are living ideas who create weapons out of the power of ideas. Warner Bros and DC have been planning all this for years to setup Snyder's glorious Darkseid debut. Bless up.

Someone has to hold posters on a specific slowly becoming defunct video game forum and its now more successful spin-offs accountable and that duty is the reason The Bore exists. To expose the dirty parts of a very specific subset of a niche of the internet.

This is all very exciting!

I mean it was always obvious this was gambling to anyone with half a brain to begin with, just because the law hadn’t been updated since well before digital commodities existed made no difference to that, so this was inevitably coming eventually, but gods damn is it satisfying to seee EA being the ones that took it too far and made regulators wake up to what the game industry was doing to the young and vulnerable!

Who knows, maybe now instead of just shoving exploitative skinner boxes designed to get as much money as possible out of addicts into their bloated, overly focus tested bore fests, AAA games could perhaps instead just make more diverse, well crafted games on a properly managed budget that justify a slightly higher price tag?
Quote
There will be 0 issue with government regulating games as long as it is strictly to do with gambling/loot boxes. Just need to make sure there is no open ended language in the legislation that could lead to censorship of content, just purely be about the gambling aspect.
Quote
Well clearly the ESRB and the industry itself aren't going to do anything about. This is what government is suppose to do, so I don't see how it's a bad thing.
Quote
Kind of shocked at how many people in this thread don't think gambling should be regulated.

Students of history will remember that the last turn of a century self-proclaimed Progressive movement in the United States also wanted to stamp out gambling as one of the many vices holding back the achievement of a modern society along with alcohol, blacks and the poor having too many children.

Words are not actual violence. Words can be used during violence, or precede violence. But literal violence?

And yeah, the free speech shit is always cute when it comes to the left. And it's always said by minorities who would (by the state) be the first ones to lose their rights, if it came to that. The fact that my generation doesn't find free speech important has made me realize that the majority are absolute fucking morons and we are destined to become the next baby boomers.

That one is a cut off cause its for some non-standard cabinet.

There's actually two ways the art can look depending on the cabinet. On a normal sized American cabinet it is folded under


On a Capcom big blue cabinet the art fills the control panel (ignore the art around the monitor in this pic, that's not original)

Surprisingly, losing weight on a potato diet is a thing. Mainly taken from that exact context: poor europeans. Something about baking the potato and then letting it cool before eating (with no additives) changes the dynamic of the starch.

You begin to lose half a pound a day on a breakfast, lunch,dinner potato diet (you can throw protein shakes in there so you don't lose muscle mass)

Poor people lose weight on a potato diet because they're suffering a fucking calorie deficit you inbred smegma milkshake


Here we go.

We aren't talking about starving kids in Africa you stupid fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow so we're not talking about the same levels of caloric deficiency . Poor people in this country tend to be fat, most lower middle class Americans are FAT. Why is that when poor eastern europeans aren't?

This specific diet has also been referred to as the "potato hack"

Quote
The "modern dyspeptic gut" affects millions of people and costs billions of dollars annually. The answer might be as simple as 3-5 days of potatoes. ... Also found in The Potato Hack is a comprehensive review of resistant starch, gut health, potato history, and a growing guide for those that want to grow their own.

Instead of looking all the way to eastern Europe for who knows what reason, just look at the wealthiest Americans.

Why are wealthier Americans slimmer than middle class Americans (and lower) ? What kinda secrets do they have?

Keep it simple when you analyse stuff like that you dope.
You dope lol, some of you are mentally fucked, now i understand why a lot of you got butthurt over being booted from Gaf. You're cut from the same cloth.

I wasn't making a two line joke (irony of too much starch can lead to obesity ---> yet there's a potato diet, go figure) post on a message board at 4am be a deep dive into the complexities facing dietary problems in America that not even the government has been able to fully figure out.  :duh

it's late, we're all on edge, and by all I mean me
Eat a potato you'll feel better  :gaben

there's nothing complex about americans being fat

the government is in the pocket of corporations

they want you to buy and consume as much garbage as possible (that goes beyond food)

that's basically it

and then you add to that, american life being stressful, and when people get stressed the fuck out they want to store energy by eating high calorie shit

wealthier americans are not as stressed, have better access to health care (and mental health care) and are slimmer and healthier
How this came to be, when they realized they fucked up, and how to fix it is very complex.

A great book on how what started as good intentions turned menacing.

You know these Yuropeans and their post-modernism, it's not that they actually eat potatoes it's that they contemplate the idea of a potato and the concept of having potentially eaten it, and receive the necessary nutrients. It's really funny how backwards and ignorant Americans are in comparison, especially in their inability to understand what's best for them and mankind, like not tolerating harmful and corrosive ideas in public discourse or being inclusive of all other cultures.

Especially when there's the leading example of Yurop, which has yet again worked harmoniously to tackle and eliminate any mitigating human issues except for the seemingly never ending scourge of those fucking Roma and their godawful trash culture.

And yeah, the free speech shit is always cute when it comes to the left. And it's always said by minorities who would (by the state) be the first ones to lose their rights, if it came to that. The fact that my generation doesn't find free speech important has made me realize that the majority are absolute fucking morons and we are destined to become the next baby boomers.
Nope we will become worse and ltcorbis and her generation will have every right to eat us alive.

You know these Yuropeans and their post-modernism, it's not that they actually eat potatoes it's that they contemplate the idea of a potato and the concept of having potentially eaten it, and receive the necessary nutrients. It's really funny how backwards and ignorant Americans are in comparison, especially in their inability to understand what's best for them and mankind, like not tolerating harmful and corrosive ideas in public discourse or being inclusive of all other cultures.

Especially when there's the leading example of Yurop, which has yet again worked harmoniously to tackle and eliminate any mitigating human issues except for the seemingly never ending scourge of those fucking Roma and their godawful trash culture.

I'll have you known, sir, we still have plenty of issues with brown, blacks and miscreants.

Also "Europe" is the name of one of the victims of serial harasser and rapist Zeus. :larry Given what we know now, maybe we should change the name to something more inclusive and less problematic like "Al-Andalus".

I'll defend Franken. This all sounds like complete bullshit to me. The first accusation is a complete joke. The second is like umm ok? You took a picture with him and he had his hand close or around your ass? Where's the proof? The crime does not fit the punishment some of these people are trying to impose.

This is becoming a witch hunt now. Any fucking allegation will ruin your career now, proof be damned.

When is there ever proof?

Controversial Opinion, and its becoming even more worrisome that its closer to reality than i care to admit.
A Majority of Sunni Islam is now controlled by western power structures of neoliberal causes and leaders, similar to what the Ottoman Empire was in its later stages with the great powers.
Does that mean that ISIS was made by the US? No the US didnt make ISIS. But What isn't a lie however is the double talk the US did during the Syrian issues which caused Isis to grow in power and possible backroom deals with folks they were not supposed to talk to.
Also explains why the Straight edge movement - a lot of those men went to Al-queda and ISIS/ISIL, and part of the reason why ISIL's propaganda is so high end, the other half is Pateron willingly is funding Terrorism.

And he apparently eats lemon and banana peels? Might as well just eat the bag that your chips come in or the McDonald’s receipt too. Basically eating garbage. Does that make them cannibals?

I got some of the details wrong, but yep that's him

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=986627

I remember this thread cause I felt super bad for the poster

Why?  In that thread he says he has subscriptions to MMOs.  He's also probably posting from a phone worth hundreds of dollars/euros.  He's a typical GAFfer with no life skills that wants the government to support them so they can be worthless all day.  If I only had money to buy a potato for a meal, I sure as fuck wouldn't be wasting time posting on forums looking for sympathy.

If this is the bar that will be set prepare for powerful democrats with any chance of achieving something in government to be shamed out of office.

All it takes is a simple "he grabbed my ass" and boom gone. Russians don't even need legitimate fucking operatives. Putin must be flipping tables wondering why they spent hundred of millions on cyber warfare when all it took was having a female anonymously claim someone slid their hands past their butt  :ussrcry

"Traps for life" does that mean the person was being trapped into believing the poster was a female when it's actually a guy? And if so how is that a transgender slur? I honestly cannot keep up with this shit.

trap culture deals with dudes that are high end crossdressers but know that they are males. Ototonoko is one aspect of it.
