Actors should only play themselves in roles

Michael Cera is a visionary for being the first to refuse any role that isnt himself

the comments from Price in that article is exactly what I thought she would say. Blame everyone else but herself. And Kotaku lapping it up.

It's amazing how these super polite tweets from the guy get somehow spun into being harassment

The game industry has (and some of it is is justified, granted) a huge victim complex from the "toxicity" of gamers. Death threats, etc. aren't cool. But to automatically assume "I disagree, and this is why" opinions as harassment is so lost the plot that the game industry needs to crash as soon as possible.

The circling the wagons that most developers and "journalists" so is royally sad.

I mean case in point on how toxicity changes is Jeff Kaplan.

"YOU EVERQUEST IDIOTS ARE FUCKING WRONG."
"Well, I'm going to start work on WoW! See you losers later!"
(years later)
"We gotta protect folks from toxicity."
"But Jeff, you were a part of that culture years ago!?"

So let's say there really is a genocide happening.
All they are doing is bitching about it on an irrelevant forum.

What is the goal here? Are they going to say 'I told you so : when the second Holocaust has already happened?


I did everything I could, I had a resist avatar!

Your talking about a forum that's at least 20% shut ins and/or adults who live at home with their parents. There isn't much resistance they can actually participate in beyond this form of couch born activism. The only way they can feel powerful in their lives where they have seemingly so little control is by trying to predict the coming apocalypse and prepare for it in whatever way they can.

Presumably they're also bitching about it on Twitter/Tumblr/Facebook, to be sure, and ERA is their little bunker they've dug into the earth where they get the "real news" and coordinate with other like minded progressive rebels. I'm not being sarcastic at all by the way it's really just a way to upset their own personal power dynamics.

Is this what a few weeks at the bore does to a progressive?

Done some more digging.

Apparently REEE felt they had 3 problems.
1. During the Discord days trolls from 4chan, NeoGAF and this place managed to tag along to enter the new holy land
2. Members kept screaming for more BANS on the Discord
3. Some mods simply were sick and tired of moderating already

Eventually they decided to put Sweet Nicole in charge of this thing to get things back on track.

They've not yet acted on their other idea. To have members submit more 'real information' including a verifiable phone number for registration.

The whining from the usual suspects about those ArenaNet firings is hilarious.

"What? How dare ArenaNet fire two employees shitting on polite customers!!"
"Don't they know it's standard operating procedure to shit on you customers on Twitter without consequence?"

The guy who sent the tweet that kicked this off was as polite as can be, but the gaming press is spinning it as if he was some alt-right troll that hate women in the industry. This smells of fear. Fear that their usual habit of being condescending assholes on social media may actually have real world consequences for them. Which is funny seeing that they love to use social media to end careers and socially shame people they don't like all the time. It's a classic case of can't taking your own medicine.

It’s not really controversial or anti-progressive, it’s just the psychology of the internet.

The kid is lucky he didn’t get a punch up the bracket. His racist fuck parents obviously never got one, and he’s well on his way to becoming Richard Spencer. Maybe he’ll get that punch sooner than later.

Will someone tie Marco up, beat the shit out of him, then explain to his worthless ass all this shit started at the top when Trump decided to shit talk everyone and employ racism and hate as modern politics. Its like these pieces of shit completely ignore the existence of the president, his twitter, and his rallies.

I don't want red text explaining to me that moderation hasn't changed in recent-ish months to allow a more favorable discussion on free speech. As people on this hangout have presented, a lot of OT stuff has... shifted in discussion

[benjipwns]

Maybe I'm an outlier but the internet converted me through Digg, Reddit, and the Adult Swim forums around the age of 20 later refined by neogaf. Before then I unironically voted libertarian in 2008 and listened to Alex Jones. Grew up around a lot of racist slurs being tossed around my immediate family, and went to a private Evangelical Calvin school.

gross, people don't change, especially bigots, can the mods sort this?

That 'will you watch the debates' thread is something. We got some full-on russian maga in there.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/will-you-watch-the-presidential-debates-in-2020.53657/

wait, why is this even a thread

I'll watch only because these events are the most significant sources for the majority of the country to actually see the candidates. Most people who only barely pay attention to politics will see them, absorb everything their preferred candidate says, and then not factcheck or verify their statements. Unfortunately there's no better way of seeing how poorly the general public understands and appreciates the challenges and ethics of public policy than watching a debate and seeing everything turn into a pathetic prizefight where the only thing that matters is getting in a good line.

I'd like to ignore them, but in doing so I would be fundamentally misunderstanding the dangerous cycle of ignorance which dominates the broken system of American representational democracy.
