Lawrence Krauss got #metoo'd?   

I guess i'm not surprised. Nerd gets a bit of fame, uses that fame to try and pull chics. I doubt anything he did was actual harassment though.

Someone should post the "threads like this show ERA isn't the progressive forum I thought it was" complaint in that Oprah thread. Nobody will know what exactly you're complaining about.

Please God, do not tell her to run for president. Please.

ResetERA.com moderation "B-Dubs" caught protecting  Alex Jones in strange decision.

Dailymail is questionable most of the time, but they did break the Porter abuse story.  It seems that  B-Dubs, ResetERA.com moderator did not read the actual sources linked, as it contain scanned court documents, lots of comments from legitimate lawyers, several interviews from past infowars employees, and statements from Alex Jones and his own father who pretty much confirmed some of the accusations, such as the alleged homophobic environment,

Very strange turn of event..

Could someone explain what “posting in bad faith” means besides “having an opinion the site doesn’t agree with”?

Looking for genuine answers.

It's an evolution of these posters slowly decaying the meaning of the term "trolling" when they were on GAF. It's an accusation that you don't actually mean what you're arguing you're just trying to set people off for laughs or hate site cred or whatever.

And it's well known that you're doing this because literally nobody could actually hold those positions, it's figuratively literally impossible, so by posting them you're not in good faith presenting an actual counterargument to their arguments you're simply and deliberately trying to erode the standards of the community for nefarious ends.

But if one were to actually hold that position, to be posting...ingenuously, that's even worse.  Either you're playing some sort of devil's advocate/riling people up, or you honestly believe those things.  Resetera moderators always try to give users the benefit of the doubt by assuming the best about them - it's more likely you're goofing around than truly racist and sexist.  Honestly it's quite charitable of them.

[Transhuman]

https://www.resetera.com/posts/5055675/

Should have known better than to point out the double standard of mocking people who claim god literally speaks to them in support of Trump, but who also defend Oprah for literally expecting god to speak to her.

Or as they call it on Resetera, "trolling".

User Warned: Equating religious belief with mental illness.
 

Lol let’s see someone in that trans thread say they’re against it for religious purposes.

(Christian)Religion is pretty low on the oppression totem so it's not hard to imagine what would happen.

Bonus hot take: People who wait from signs from god and/or believes in the literal word of religious text are nutters and should be called out.

Stupid Yuropean here and please please please run for president because god personally told you so, Oprah. That would be amazing and also probably ensure that the next US election is as entertaining and WTF? as the last one!

And then the internet would have four years to figure out how to top that shitshow. If Trump wins in 2020 and turns out to not be literally Hitler and respects his term limit they could have Brianna Wu (d) vs Chelsea Manning (alt-r) in 2024. Only your imagination is the limit!

You know how people have this 'Id marry/do that guy/girl for money' person in mind when talking about that(or maybe i'm the only one and just weird). Oprah is that person for me, and I'd hit it/marry for $2million bux as that's what I feel I can live on comfortably for the rest of my days.

Gotta admit... I'm curious. I suppose in the grand scheme of things budgeting something out to investigate this wouldn't cost that much. I don't think anyone is expecting Mueller to check this out personally, otherwise all it would take is a bomb in the interrogation room to "send a message".

Oprah is basically Democratic Trump. She frightens me, because I can easily see the same demographic groups that broke hard for Hillary to break just as hard or harder for Oprah. But whereas Hillary actually was qualified to run for President, and had a set of experience well-suited to sit in the Oval Office, Oprah has none.

In a thread about a Pakistani court ordering the names of people who left Islam.

Anyway, I mean...Islam is the state's national religion. If a sovereign nation wants to persecute its people because of apostasy, who are we to judge?

At least their religion is an actual religion. Here in America, we worship (gun) violence.

It's ok they might kill you for leaving Islam because at least you're not worshipping (gun) violence like those Americans

The "sovereign nation" flourish is a nice touch on this one. People can get banned anywhere, okay? They come to ResetERA for the atmosphere and the attitude. Okay? That's what the flair's about. It's about fun.

Paki as a slur has limited use, like it only works if you're a chav in London shouting at a shop owner for being a shop owner, the rest of the non British influenced world is blissfully unaware of it.

Dude, Tyler.  This site needed to excise a ton of garbage, and it is a better place for it.  I'm on the other site as well, and OT there is a complete rotten cesspool of political echoing.  You either believe what they believe, or you get completely dogpiled until a mod warns or bans you.  I avoid posting in OT threads there, it is a complete mess...and the mods are having to constantly babysit every political thread.  There are so many mod bans with the stated reason as "disingenuous posting" that it isn't even funny.  That is their fallback crutch for anyone that doesn't agree with the masses...they must be "posting disingenuously".


It's the exact same dogpile that happened here to you.  You either agreed with the masses and left NeoGAF to join the echo chamber on another site...or you're obviously a monster if you stay here.  It's sad really..

Check out my post about Resetera on the introduction to Gaf thread.
Tyler, this may be one of the greatest and most honest posts ive seen on any gaming forum and it fucking sucks what happened to you and the ungratefulness of that community who chose to execute you through trial by public opinion. Horrible to say the least and even if this site doesn't have as much traffic as before, there's still this sense of calmness and sensibility that isn't common anymore on gaming forums. ResetERA is a site that deceived me and I chose to go against it and its mods because of their facade. Looking forward to becoming a full member of GaF so that I can make some good threads.

Gets called out for all his trolling (on another forum) and then...
