I'm endlessly amused at americans ability to make everything a partisan issue, even literal facts/information.

If only it was just US. I keep seeing increasing amounts of US political librul language and discourse in our own social media channels. We don't even have any party that would be more on the "right" than democrats. Shit makes no sense.

Like it or not, Wikileaks have an honest appeal towards people who want a less imperialistic and interventionist foreign policy from the United States.
By "imperialistic and interventionist foreign policy from the United States," do you mean supporting the anti-Assad people in Syria, who were fleeing the country from Russian and Syrian government airstrikes and chemical attacks? Or sending NATO troops to defend Poland's border? Or sending anti-tank weapons to Ukraine?

Yeah I guess we shouldn't intervene and just let those people die...

It's funny, even the Reagan foreign policy wasn't as openly belligerent, let alone on the direct borders of Russia, as NeoGAF.com/ResetERA posters suddenly started fantasizing about in November 2016.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Random aside that I shouldn't post since it's kinda dumb and rejects a lot of what I've read officially prior to comport a new theory after reading a series of recent histories and articles that generally portrayed Reagan as aloof and his staff as gods (despite the SNL footage) who won the Cold War with the CIA and well written State Department memos: I've come to the conclusion that where the Reagan foreign policy "worked" was ironically due to Reagan accidentally backing into a brilliant foreign policy that his advisers all hated for obvious reasons. His offer to abolish all nuclear weapons while simultaneously refusing to back down off SDI must have been as entirely discombobulating to the Soviets as it was to Administration Hawks/neoconservatives. Not to mention Reagan's direct rhetoric which also flustered the people inside his own administration who regularly wrote similar arguments but cringed at Reagan saying it.

Reagan's personal rejection of realism and his experts for utopianism did what Nixon and Kissinger could never square. (As they wrote rather angerly about at the time, especially on arms control.) It even baffled Thatcher who thought he was undermining the whole Yuoprean defense policy. From what I've read regarding and Gorby, it was he who interestingly seemed to think/realize/decide the old man wasn't seriously proposing policy but was being honest to him about what he thought was ideally achievable as a sign of...

GOOD FAITH.

Apparently to the Mods, journalists don’t make mistakes, lie, misrepresent, present inaccuracies, or otherwise.

I find the decrying of people stanning for Sony only slightly hypocritical from people stanning for Le Monde. They are journalists, not saints, and the idea I should accept what they say as sancrosanct more than a little ridiculous.

Crazy, last night i spoke to a friend of mine in her mid 30s from europe that absolutely refused to make a move on a guy she went on 4 dates with already. She's also the distinguished mentally-challenged fellow feminist type that pushes the "women can freeze up and not know how to turn down giving a blow job" garbage. It's unbelievable.

She wants the guy to make a move, but if the guy made a move in the wrong way or too aggressively there may be a chance she freezes? :dizzy And then these types like to say a woman can do everything i man can do. I've been saying this for a while now that women don't know where they want to go with this.

And the Aziz case is startlingly stupid. Aziz looks like a pesky little annoying horny creep, if you can't turn down his advances you don't deserve to get paid the same as a man. Sorry. You're weak.

What I find alarming though is the way certain groups are putting into the minds of women the idea that their bad experiences should be seen as sexual assault. That the onus and responsibility should be on the man at all times to read the signals that women are giving off. This kind of infantilises women by removing agency and responsibility from them.

Now I do get Shostakovich's point that women might find it hard at times to say no despite not really wanting it. We're a sexually dimorphic species. In other words men are bigger and stronger and that alone changes the power dynamic. That said, while there is perhaps something men could learn about the way they approach sex, ultimately there has to be some kind of objective standard when it comes to how we view sexual assault, harrassment, etc. We have to draw the line somewhere. Having increasingly broader standards where the line is vague and murky benefits no one.

Now with people like Grace, there maybe another reason other than simply not being believed or understood that factors into the decision to not make things like this public. That being recognising their own failure and responsibility to communicate their feelings clearly. I'm sure a number of these women get that. However, when you have certain groups of people putting it into their heads that it isn't their fault at all, and all the blame should be at the feet of the man in this situation, that's a unhealthy way to judge sexual dynamics for both men and women. It is fair to make men more aware of this, but it is unreasonable to hold men totally responsible as if they are the only adults in this situation. There needs to be an objective standard to judge cases by.

Because of course the Aziz thread is closed, there's *doubt* and debate about whether something is sexual assault or not. Can't have anyone on ERA doubting poor, defenseless, weak women. Thank goodness the mods are there to protect the fairer sex.

Hey, if we know one thing about the game industry it's that internal sources are never wrong.

I mean come on, I don't think anyone was lying here with evil intent, but that now the accepted narrative is that sony backtracked  the blacklisting is pretty silly when no one knows either way.

Yes, like whataboutism... which is abused more IMO.
Whataboutism is an overly cute, awkward word, but I can't think a quicker way to describe the rhetorical device being used. Neoliberal is the term that really needs to fuck off.

"mansplain all over me"

I wonder if that is her kink.

"Go on! Mansplain all over me you filthy misogynistic bastard!"

"Well, darling You probably don't know all this technical stuff, so let me explain..."

"OoOoh, Uuuumphh! You disgusting monster, mansplain to me more!"

FFXII is actually a pretty feminist game. And, surprisingly, FFXIII. (Shame that the sequels shot that all to hell, but still.)

Whataboutism already has a specific meaning far different from what they're using it for.

It's for when someone brings up unrelated hypocrisy in the person they're arguing against, not just anytime someone brings up any counterpoint to anything.  These days any sentence that begins with "well, to be fair" is whataboutism.

He did, i mean, its a short post.

Its not merely a way to describe a rhetorical device being used.
That's not a definition. THE rethorical device implies that he has a specific use in mind. Which I would assume to be based on a definition. Which he didn't give.

STROUDSBURG — “I’ve had a lot of time to think (about) what led me down this road,” Christopher Goldberg told a judge moments before being sentenced Thursday to one to two years in state prison for child pornography possession.

“I hope to take this experience and become a better member of society,” said Goldberg, 33, of Coolbaugh Township, having pleaded guilty after authorities reported finding 53 child porn pictures and a video on his cellphone.

As a convicted sex offender under Megan’s Law, he must register his whereabouts with law enforcement for 15 years after completing his sentence. Also, his Internet access will be restricted and he will have no unsupervised contact with any children.

Mansplaining exists and there are plenty of examples, but there's also abuse of the term to basically mean "anytime a dude corrects a woman on anything."

Yeh it's not men's fault we are biologically superior at explaining things.
