But if we accept that people are being born in the wrong body today, how is it even possible to argue that they weren't 4000 years ago as well? We're almost exactly the same homo sapiens they were.

yeah, but what is being trans? That was the point of one of Chappelle's jokes. If you walk up on a 6ft tall bearded person with tits and a dress what are you really going to think? You gonna tip toe around the right pronoun?

If you look like a giant fucking dude in a dress other people are going to just think you're a big dude in a dress not that you're a "woman" inside.

Hey I'm just asking questions man 

[Rise]

Okay I’m calling bullshit. And you can call me a Sonyfanboy (it’s true I don’t like the Xbox) but really a framed Last Jedi Poster?

Is that really normal to have posters for brand new movies in your house. Unless you’re gonna tell me the person in question works for ILM it just seems weird to me that an ordinary house would have a poster for a new movie.

I think it’s kinda strange in general to have movie posters in your house but yeah I just feel like this is corporate synergy and they want you to buy Xbox One Xs with Battlefront 2.

Apologies in advance if someone’s already pointed this out, it’s just an odd detail to me.
 

All I’m saying is if there’s a company that especially like this viral video it’s Microsoft. Because the viewer is left with the message that Xbox > PS4.

And yet Persona 2 had a better treatment of homosexuality.

Are you serious? Persona 2 which made it a throw-away line, is "better treatment?"

t. He hasn't played Persona 2 and has read the story on the wiki.


Yes, Persona 2, in which one character is gay the main character is bi (And this is not counting some NPCs, like the Genie). They are not shamed for it, there is not "lele, are you going to rape us at night Jun". There is a serious story going on, and one of the most important characters is gay. What confuses you?

Bro, I've played Persona 2. Both Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment. Get out of here with this meme shit.

No you clearly didn't. Also telling people to get out with this meme shit when he makes this kind of post LOL.

There is only two lines about Tatsuya being "gay" in IS and it's entirely ignored in EP. Yes, it may not be going "LOL ARE YOU GONNA RAPE US KANJI" like Yosuke in Persona 4, but better treatment of homosexuality is a huge stretch. Jun is implied IIRC and never explicitly stated unless you choose the "I have eyes only for Jun" line when Lisa asks.

First, there are more instances of homosexuality than Jun or that scene particularly in IS. You should know if you played it. But again, you didn't. Second, you have stuff like the Drama CD and the devs interview (People like Kaneko even favor the pairing). Third, unlike Persona 3-4-5, Persona 2 doesn't have a S.Link, so that's the most amount of interest Tatsuya can show in any character. Fourth, I'm not sure what kind of treatment you expect for a game not focused on romance in the fucking 90.  Fifth, having a gay character in the 90 that actually has dreams, objectives and stuff going on in his life and isn't just the butt of the joke in a Japanese game is a fucking damn accomplice. Again, just look what happened in modern Persona as soon one character just touches the subject.

So again: Go back to REEEEEE, please.

Pathetic. Do you need your safe space? And I told you to go back to Voat, if you keep going like this, didn't I? Also for someone obsessed over Resetera, I'm not sure you should tell people to go back to it.

I'm confused. I'm accused of saying transphobia is light? When did I say that? Did I not say that Dave Chappelle's words were definitely transphobic but on the scale of transphobia they were pretty small? I'm pretty sure I implied that but hey, I wrote the original post at 3 am so maybe I'm wrong.

I have a real problem with assuming me voicing my opinions on trans matters means I'm trying to cozy up to people. That doesn't make any sense. I'm not Blaire White (I hate that bitch). Like the idea that any trans person who disagrees with the "community" is trying to get in graces with people who hate us? Like I haven't seen myself or Rise act like that. We legitimately feel we are doing this in the trans communities best self interests, which they don't seem to understand. It's whatever, though.

Rise have you read my post and the replies to it? Thoughts?

You're doing far worse my lady: https://www.resetera.com/posts/2493484/

That comment is wholly constructed to convince people outside of trans circles that it's not a concern when it can be along with numerous other matters at the same time. It's the same kind of argument you see disingenuous alt-righters make when they try to say shit like: "HOW CAN YOU CARE ABOUT WOMEN HERE, WOMEN IN AFRICA HAVE IT WORSE". It's an attempt to belittle people for caring, change the subject and encourage trans allies and people outside of the argument to care less about putting themselves into the argument in the first place. IE: to cut out voices that can be helpful to trans individuals from time to time. The goal is to make people care less about trans voices and trans issues.

Given Cindi's past and the forum she comes from, this rings loud and clear.

But it's expected considering you come from the alt-right's Doxxing central forum.

Palestinians lost the fucking wars. Do you get that? They lost. If there's no chance of a peace agreement over there, which i don't think there will be, i side with Israel.

So let's get this straight. You argue you want to see harmful trans jokes on a Chappelle stand up show.

But now you're arguing that Islam won't respect my pronouns and therefore I should be anti-Muslim.

The same argument can be flipped and applied to your dumbass. We're at full tilt mental blockage at this point.

Ironically the entire thread is them complaining about trans voices not being heard and the second one appears that doesn't fall a 100% in line they try to undermine it as much as they can. That the mods just ignored those accusations despite no one even bothering to back them up is also disappointing but I guess to be expected by now.

I see that Chappelle thread on RE is much like the gaming side threads where nobody actually focuses on whatever the content is and instead wants the play the role of "professionally outraged" over whatever it is.  The fucking specials haven't even aired yet and people are losing their shit over the possibility of some shit that might get said?

On a macro level I think that Islam is probably one of the closest things to evil in this world these days, but dude... have you seen what the Israelis DO to the Palestinians? It's hell living there. No human being deserves to be treated that way, even if they do prescribe to an ass backwards religion of violence.

[bdoughty]

have you seen what the Israelis DO to the Palestinians? It's hell living there.

I am sure it is hell for people on both sides. How many of you guys live in the region? Do you? Where do you get your information on the conflict from? Just as easy to post a ton of shit that the Palestinians have done to Israelis if you go media sources that go against your political grain.

Honestly? Just stay away and let time take its course. These sorts of movements aren't built to last. Really, they're already falling apart imo. Like, the modern social justice movement and all its related splinters like the queer theory/10000 genders/biological sex isn't real if I say so people have lost the culture war. People universally laugh at "SJ Ws" everywhere outside of their echo chambers and even primetime childrens cartoons mock them.

It's not like we're the only ones that feel this way, and those like us increase in number every day (or maybe week, idk, there aren't that many tranners to begin with)
