Please stop using the Condescending Question Mark
:rkelly
I'm happy about that thread.  :yeshrug
Are you?

That's not how you condescending question mark?

Ok?   . . . .  and

Not sure why this is a big deal . . . do you want to be purposefully a jerk? . . .


Just talk like this? . . . and you don't get banned on Resera?

That place is fucking mental.

I figure if I go in and be a good poster (by my own standards), I can hopefully be a positive, albeit small, influence to make it a better forum.

It'd be great if you decided to join up; could really help bring balance to the place.

Think of it as a long-term investment. Like not polluting.

A Condescending Question Mark will help you feel smug for a moment, but as everyone contributes and feels smug, it degrades the forum, and you lose out on the benefits of a forum where people actually like each other.

This place is different. It's loose and rude, but it seems like people mostly like each other (deep down, maybe?). But you can also see that it's pretty much impossible to have a serious conversation here.

I don't think they want balance.  Already you have certain admins and resettlement advisors becoming personalities.  A good poster is one that never questions that one crazy admin or the RA who posts 200 times a day. 

And I guess that is what I must become lest I get banned for being "transgressive" or "too questioning."

They are obviously not interested in balance. Your stance is only likely to get a reaction like "we don't need any more of this both sides bullshit". And Smoky is a well known disruptive troublemaker and alt right nazi sympathiser and he would be banned on sight because his first post would be reported by every single "personality" on that forum.

drama in the japan thread about 'blackface'
Quote
There are black Japanese people.
citation needed

There are (half-black people, for example), but sprsks should know better here.  Just ignorance on the part of the comedians who did this, who probably also didn't think that this would be offensive to others, because...well...Japan.

Because admitting that such ridiculous training as you call it should ever be used in an international context is frankly..not intelligent. Hence why Aizo was rightfully called out by the twitter people. And this whole convo is about foreigners in Japan trying to wrongfully do as such. Of which I am indeed a foreigner. But definitely not of the ilk that would push their opinions on a culture. Calling hama-chan ignorant is flagrantly stupid.

a) Deifying another celebrity who can turn around and become another Hollywood rapist. Queue the "NOT HIM" mental breakdowns.

b) "Fuck them" WOW SO BRAVE! A TRUE HERO!

It's funny how they go off on celebrities or Anita Sarkw/e dropping occasional profanities against rightwingers. If you wouldn't be pc policing so embarrassingly hard, this wouldn't exactly be "brave" in the first place. I insult far rightwingers all the time  :doge

That's just slang, man. I can understand getting at slayven for some shit, but not that.
I dont see slang I see completely broken English. It took me a few reads to figure out the sentence starts as 'No, ..' or 'No. ...'
Was reading it like 'No horses were harmed during the filming of Star Wars'

Cmon missing a comma isn't 'completely broken english'. If this upsets you I think you would lose your fucking mind in the Bayou lol

Momo

I'm generally not the type to bitch about tiny things. The comma by itself wasnt the deal breaker, it's the lack of apostrophe and then directly going into slang (that i'm not exposed to all day like you folks may be) that breaks it for me. I took pause once, twice and then when I thought I had a handle on it, there's the added cherry of a dialect I had to decipher. Why are we even typing sentences in dialect? If all of us were to do that it would get nutso fast.

Look it took me all of 5 seconds to decipher it, though it annoyed me enough to have had to reread a simple sentence so many times to grasp it to raise it as ire here. It's not super serious

Whatever, it's hard enough for me to know wtf you guys are talking about culturally half the time as someone from a completely different background to have to decipher poor English also. Don't really care about slang, that was a tertiary complaint here, but if this is going to devolve into more identity bullshit, please let it just end here.

Believing nazis are bad is kind of what you would expect of any decent human being. You have to be really quite delusional to act as if someone is going against the norm or at least sticking their neck out by saying that.

Goes hand in hand with the inverse;  when someone is found out to be a sexual assaulter or whatever.. "I never liked him, I knew there was something off about him!"

Usually all based on.. acting roles.  As if you can tell a human being's worth from them.  It's more about this weird need to pat yourself on the back and turn stories into something about yourself than anything else.

There is a term for that. Although, it gets used so much these days you kind of shy away from saying it.
