REEEE mods are actually tone policing posts. Omg.

Honestly they probably hate that what they do is "moderate."

You can take the REEEE out of the GAF, but you can't take the GAF out of the REEEE.

Maybe SweetNicole should run for office in Poland, she'd fit right in.

In an oven maybe.

Germans were so kind to leave us some big ones after WII. She'll fit.

From the slang thread:

https://www.resetera.com/posts/4282344/

It is racial issue and an undercurrent of White Supremacy because you lack any social or cultural context to these terms therefore they must be stupid and inferior to standard English words. It's the microagressions towards Black culture that happens all the time that people participate in.

If you have to lock the same thread twice, you midas swell just rule out the topic for good.

They closed and reopened the Subnautica thread three times before closing it for good. They have no idea how to moderate.

[stufte]

When white people adopt black slang or speak ebonics outside of being raised in an environment where it is learned naturally, its a form of cultural appropriation IMO.

The fact that the vast majority of examples given in this thread fall into that category its not hard to understand why a black person might raise an eyebrow at this thread.

I honestly dont mind any of that slang except for when my white friends use it to sound cool. Its not the slang that bothers me. Its who uses it. Same as if someone uses surfer slang when they have never been on a surfboard. Just comes off as being a poser to me.

My favorite Tyler Perry is still Diary of a Mad Black Woman. There was another I really liked but forgot the name of.

Gone Girl.

That is a David Fincher!

Still stars Tyler Perry in his best role.

No lies detected.

Rosamund Pike could slit my throat during climax anyday.

Twitter, you can just collect your own 'userbase' 
I'd recommend ComfortablySmug and Dril and go from there. You can also ignore the imposter Trump trolls and just go with the original @realDonaldTrump instead.

With that said, I don't find the Bore to be small at all. In fact when I got banned from NeoGAF around 2010/2012 or so it was still fairly small compared to before the shower elf implosion.
Not many of the posters who registered after 2010 or so were able to establish themselves in the community.
It was mostly dudes like Pachter and press sneak fuck banking in on their vidya game fame but not really signing up to add any value to the community.

The times without screaming YouTuber's (apart from the AVGN who was original and funny), caturday's and 'meh' truely was the golden age of the internet.

Reddit is the forum replacement with variety, but it depends on what you're looking for in regards to discussion.

It's still got nutjobs, but you can find lightly moderated subreddits that tend to keep the nutters at bay.

Forums are boring without nutjobs, you just have to keep them out of any sort of power and occasionally let them cool off with a ban for a day.
The free comedy content alone is worth keeping them around.

On ResetEra people are warned for having fun.

It perfectly shows everything that's wrong with Era.

Including some bullshit about all of Ireland being racist and a poor user being dogpiled for saying that probably isn't true because he has lived there for 33 years.

Also the truth about the Kennedy assassination.

Ireland confirmed most racist country

[Atramental]

If you think Ireland is racist don’t go to Russia.

N***** is their actual word for black people. 

Sure it’s spelled негр and not considered a pejorative (to Russians) but when I first learned that I was stunned.

i'd been wanting to create a catch-all thread for the growing threat of the alt-right/nazis and why denying them a platform is both important and highly successful. ERA is infinitely better at dealing with this garbage than 99% of other gaming communities (in my experience), but gaming side still has a slew of defenders cropping up every time a gamergater or other bigot rises through the cracks & creates something they like - more often than not though, the response is a weak but seemingly well-intended, boogie-esque centerist bit:

In the end, everything returns to gaming side and gamergate.

I have to admit that I've become less enthused about free speech over time because of the resurgence of Nazism. I cared more about it because I thought it would gradually lead to a marketplace of ideas where the best outcomes would eventually emerge triumphant. Now I think unfettered free speech seems to lead to its own destruction. Nazis, Stalinists, radical Islamists--they've happily used free speech to gain power before promptly shutting it down.

Maybe thats why you should protect free speech you fucking imbecile.

And folks there don't believe in the marketplace of ideas because nobody outside their bubble will buy their ideas. Get yourself a real argument, a real idea and get confidence in what you're saying and your ability to understand what is being said and free speech is suddenly not a scary thing.

That is what it irritates me most about this thread, they use "because free speech" as a scapegoat for getting pissed off.

Sweet Nicole has completely surpassed Besada and Bishoptl even at their worst. And it has only been about 4 months since Ree was established. It is a weirdly impressive feat.

They also say you cannot tolerate the intolerate without realizing what that means for them.

He perpetuated the alt-right "reading books" meme (every alt-righter is obsessively reading books right now, btw, a good way to spot em) with his new video and even read typical alt-right books, including Fahrenheit 451, Aldous Huxley, Jordan Peterson.
