Besada for example seemed to want to do the right thing and started out more like Mumei than Bish, well-intentioned softy, but when people started paying a lot of attention to him and talking about him off-site, he tilted and doubled down on viewing everyone as an enemy and felt he needed to take matters into his own hands etc. and ended up banning like >1000 people in 2017. I think his year-on-year ban count was 1300-something by October. Everyone was disingenuous, everyone was bigoted, everyone was evil, etc. It all became a feedback loop where he created his own enemies and then constantly checked off-site message boards to see what people were saying about him and whether he was being "doxxed." He was never really doxxed. People said shitty things about his appearance though. He [Besada] wanted me to call the FBI. I tried to get everyone to stop obsessing about off-site gossip, but they kept checking and just stopped telling me about it as much, it seemed.

I can read a fucking poll, dude

That you needed a poll to tell you that.    When we had this moment in time that proved she was obviously the spawn of Satan.

Born in Chicago, life long Cubs fan. Moving to New York so... Evil Empire sure sounds fitting, hit me up with a cap George. Then pops back to being a Cubs fan when they win the World Series. Sometimes ones allegiance to a sports team(s) can tell you all you need to know about an individual.

Never trust the following.

Yankees fans, including Trump, though at least he lives there.
Cowboy fans, all of them.
Cavs fans that are not from Ohio.
Manchester United fans that are not from England.
Laker fans, all of them.
Barcelona or Real Madrid fans not from Spain

Hillary also did something unforgivable here in the South.  When Bill was Governor of Arkansas he and Hill used to attend Arkansas Razorback football games.  She brought books to read and proceeded to read them during the game. Blasphemy!

You're not funny and I hate Hillary.

When you make a joke, make it short. If it's bad at least people don't lose time on it.

Where's the joke though?

Shame on you because you have different standards towards Sony and other publishers. EA, Bungie, Activision, Rockstar don’t support crossplay. Why don’t you stop playing their games?

Think it twice and stop your childish action please.

You gotta love it when people treat billion dollar corporations like mom and pop businesses.

With all the news and huge/ridiculous expectations from everyone regarding Cyberpunk, that it lacks this and that, I personally think one of the most important things in a pure RPG, that I havent seen yet implemented, or not properly, is the need to go to the toilet.

Wouldnt it be "nice" if you're in a dangerous mission and you just need to poop so hard, that it fails the mission just because you didnt take care of that need before starting the mission? Seriously though, if theres an eating/drinking mechanic, why shouldnt there be a toilet needs mechanic as well?

What do you think ERA? Are there any examples of such a mechanic in games? I think Postal 2 had the pissing thing which was kinda funny.

Who knows, just stating what is pretty much known in the sporting world and how it related to Hillary. EPL fans from the US are the worst. Man U and Arsenal with a few jumping on the Chelsea banwagon. Started following the EPL back when I got into PES in the PS2 days and option files. Decided to take on Man (Blue) City as my team because they had my favorite US players, Carlos Renya and DaMarcus Beasley. They were a middle of the pack team for the longest time but that decision has turned out well.

gotta love how beseda just assumed there would be gift baskets involved in his tenure as a volunteer forum moderator

[cosmicblizzard]

That gift basket comment is still really friggin bizarre to me. Like, was it a joke that just didn't come off in text well or was he seriously expecting some assorted pastries and wine for staying on board a melting website?

[benjipwns]

the funny thing about all of that Loresplainer (it wasn't me!) is that if you cut out the part after Trump won and some really lost their minds, there was a long period on GAF where the only mod/admin who would wander into a thread without reading it really and straight up perm you for a single post or comment was Lore himself; the last crew especially seemed to enjoy to dragging out the pile-ons, let the person "dig their hole" and then cut them down to the glorious cries of the people and repeat with the next person who rolled into the thread

week bans, month bans, etc. sure, but Lore was for ages the only real hair perm trigger dude, even when bish would "clean out a thread" it took a few years of people undermining Sony with racism before those all wound up as perms too

[benjipwns]

then there was Steve Youngblood who would perm you because he happened to cast his eye upon you during one of his bloodlust frenzies

but that's why we love him

This is a guy whose final message to his flock the GAF community was a warning that the ERA staff wasn't willing to go above and beyond to "protect them" from the eldritch horrors of the World Wide Web, like that of the petty gossip churning out of the Hate Machine at thebore.com, as he had so steadfastly done. He was an egomaniac drunk on GAF power. I absolutely believe he would have expected gifts from EviLore all of his "hard work" being a janitor on a gaming message board.

Poor guy. He really was better off making a pitch to get bought out and become Nintendo's second party or something. Then they could unceremoniously kick him to the curb like the Iguana Studios/Retro guy and give him a nice payout.

She had a post back in the day where she was like "even though I'm a democratic socialist, I can't trust Bernie on trans-issues, I can Hillary" and a bunch of posters agreed with her. And that was that.

I see it's similar:

I love these women. I don't love Sanders.

tbh. fuck sanders. he'd happily throw blacks under the bus to benefit economically anxious whites.

Whatever little I read of Sanders seems to suggest the man is very like Trump in practicing America First philosophy

Sanders has been a disappointment to me on the ICE crisis the past few weeks.

I like how people aren't enraged about left leaning politicians not giving a shit about the administration making concentration camps on US soil.

We already know that [Bernie] doesn't think this an issue that warrant any kind of anger so question his commitment about a major policy point for the current left isn't exactly surprising.

Ps. Kamala, m.obama, gillibrand, warren should run = ! Sanders should not cause we neeeed the white house back

Talk about contorted logic, like these cheeseburgers that cant get laid suffered some testicular torsion.

[benjipwns]

There is a reason I've said "actions" and not "words".
Similarly you can probably find Trump tweets blasting Trump's current policy however his actions are clear.
Everytime someone speaks about the D party, it invariably is about Pelosi, Schumer and Sanders.
Well at least Pelosi and Schumer routinely try to do things in the Senate AND they're clearly in the Senate and Congress and have no national visibility worth shit.
To add to that no one expects anything from Pelosi or Schumer, that is not the case with Vermont's current famous Senator.

Every time I see him being interviewed on the news, he's speaking out against their policies, including their policy of separating families, iirc. His voting record isn't exactly what I'd call pro-Trump. What else would a member of a superminority party who generally votes with a minority party do to fight against administration policies?

To begin with he could be at protests and stuffs, he could also avoid providing soundbites that paint his political allies as unreasonable idiots.
Considering the level of current US politicians it's not that hard to ask more of them.

speaking of actions, anyone in here wanna grapple with Sanders' suspect-as-hell immigration policy record or is it only okay to dredge up old policy positions with the reasoning that "they really should've known better" when they're a woman?

Literally what the fuck are you talking about? The last two out of three appearances or interviews I’ve seen him in, the biggest topic he talked about was what an outrage this current administrations child separation policy is, and that it must be changed and that citizens must keep putting pressure on the administration. Even his social media, the first things up there are about the immigration and child separation issue.

I don’t give a shit about people on here being mean, I care about people acting stupid, hyperbolic and misrepresenting reality.
Again, words.
It is very hard to not see his absence at a national protest as anything but a missed opportunity if we're being generous.
And really ask better than the bare minimum of your politicians.
A guy who blast identity politics when that is exactly what the winner of last election used is pretty transparent.

Protests are far more than just words.
It's a show of support from the population on a certain position and a way of showing where you stand and the breadth of your support.
It's the least of what would be expected of someone who is against the current admin policies.

Oh I get it Bernie is a racist

haha ！

With the son he's got, I don't think that is a qualifier to be stricken by default.

I mean he chose quite literally to engage in empty pageantry on a day when US progressives were marching nationwide for family reunification

Also he was doing something pointless at the time so he had time to be there but he choosed not to, clearly he had better things to do than protesting the immigration policies of this admin.
e: if you're going to try to change my mind, maybe do that with better arguments than "interviews are more important than rallies and protests".
And we know events like that are much more effective than just tv appearances, why the fuck do you think Trump is still running rallies the country over?

Whenever you guys wanna get rid of this man is gonna be too late. Well already is too late. Not sure why Bernie was being paraded around like some saint come to save the masses. Really should have thrown in the towel a long time ago. The most do nothing person I've ever seen being given a platform.

I'm sorry, but when people are being traumatized; torn from their families, villified, etc. Maybe it's time to cancel the afternoon tea party and actually do something more meaningful. Use that influence to show you actually care instead of squander it and take part in some frivolous celebration. Priorities.

Guess he found taking part in a huge nationwide protest to be too uncivil. Not seeing the sincerity in his words when he'd rather spend the day at a parade than at an important protest. But that's Bernie for you; maybe next time he can borrow Melania's jacket?

 

[benjipwns]

So you feel that way yet instead of making a "why are Dems fucking up a midterm election year so badly?" thread you went with one that just targeted Bernie. I don't get it. It just comes off as you going out of your way to bash one particular politician, one that probably isn't super relevant to the party moving forward.

See this is where we have an impasse. I disagree that he isn't relevant

And this isn't even about the midterms. It is more an eye to 2020.

She's black, she's fairly intelligent, she knows how to stay calm, she could school you like you're a five year old and you would listen, she looks like someone you can trust to actually not fuck things up. She's the opposite of Hillary Clinton and people have learned their lesson with Trump election : the worst man in the world is still more likeable than your average hysteric/liar/power-hungry woman.

I'm not american, but I watched some senators question Zuckerberg. You could felt the lad was shitting himself in front of Harris while he was fairly confortable with others. She was one of the few senators that actually looked like she knew what she was speaking about.

Plus, if you had to judge every women in power by the cock they sucked to be where they are, you would have to vote for men and that's not what progressive people want. 

[benjipwns]

she looks like someone you can trust to actually not fuck things up. She's the opposite of Hillary Clinton

Her tenure as AG wasn't very different from most AGs. Fighting against the release of totally innocent prisoners, defended prosecutors who withheld evidence, inserted false statements into transcripts, committed perjury, etc., argued in court that the only way to find prosecutorial misconduct was if there was physical brutality involved, appealing against releasing prisoners from overcrowded prisons because the state would lose the labor pool, defending the state against court orders about trans prisoners one of whom suddenly was paroled after years of complete refusal months after they filed a lawsuit against Harris' position, launched the prosecutions for child sex trafficking against the Backpage CEO and former owners, et al

Of course, I'm biased. I disqualified Chris Christie, to choose a...prominent?...example, as a potentially good president before he even became governor because he too was a prosecutor. Everything after that was mostly confirmation of my always impeccable judgement. (No one is allowed to check my post history or remember anything I've ever said before without my permission or it's katzenphobic doxxing.)

[benjipwns]

here's a fun fact that relies on less context than post #99 did on line breaks to pad it out:

Sanders is the only one of these four who's on record voting against comprehensive immigration reform

this one made me chuckle because of how that term is completely meaningless as to what the "reform" even looks like, but also because it was a Bush Administration phrase designed to appear exactly as an "all things to all people" one-size one-time solution, so Republicans could say it was actually about strengthening border security and cutting down on ILLEGALS (by making them legal), etc.

[benjipwns]

It’s kind of weird to just go “oh well” when the event is so significant and was planned well in advance (to the point people complained it was too late).

Days after the Maxine Waters comments, it’s not a great look. Even if you absolutely believe that in his heart of hearts, Sanders has no blind spot there, it’s not hard to admit it’s bad PR. It makes him look again like he’s more interested in old white people in the end.

And yeah, what about all the other dem chucklefucks who also do exactly that, except they aren’t part of the 2020 discussion and aren’t supposed to move things leftward. It’s this particular dissonance that fuels the narrative that when push comes to shove, “workers rights” will mean “white workers rights” like it has so many times before.

THE OPTICS

[benjipwns]

It's not petty to highlight that he wasn't there.

He's in that 2020 group.

It's not petty to expect more from him. Sorry. I'm not going to apologize for signaling him out. Especially this week when he defended Sarah Sanders, declined to endorse the Abolish ICE movement and now participated in empty pageantry over standing in solidarity with progressives across the US.
