We can have a thread about this without a title designed to stoke console wars from some website.

The thread title is the title of the article

This is actually amazing.

please only source sites like kotaku or waypoint, which never use hyperbole to drive traffic to their sites.

I think I’ve signaled that I’ve been studying the French Revolution a lot the past few weeks. Americans on the left should do the same (I know they didn’t teach it in school). The left eating itself and pushing away would-be allies is something that has disasterously happened before.

The Girondins dragged the country into a forever war against a coalition of foes that had hitherto been content to watch the Bourbons burn.

Or is this a game of pretend like the existence of moderate Syrian rebels?

Thread is going off the deep end now

A guy is making sensible arguments about why you shouldn’t support a fictional character calling for the slaughter  of white children and the usual suspects are pretending that isn’t what he was saying.

They can’t argue with him reasonably so now they are saying he’s concern trolling, pearl clutching or just telling him to fuck off

If anyone was wondering what kind of horrifying new precedent has been set by the recent firings of two Arenanet developers, consider this comment on the r/Guildwars2 reddit. By no means is this an outlier in any of the threads, either.
(Image removed from quote.)

This reddit post is the smoking gun, gamergate is behind it all. Good thing you made a thread about it.

Wait, no, you are a dumbass for failing for an obvious troll who later posted this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ChapoTrapHouse/comments/8wlbyw/look_at_this_piece_of_shit_bragging_about/e1z0h4u/

Yes. I'm not justifying myself here or trying to lessen what I wrote, but here's the thought process:

I just got so mad, so upset and felt so powerless and surrounded by individuals who are so thoughtless and shitty I was hoping I'd appeal to some sort of sense of decency by writing the most vile shit I could think of. But it went unchallenged save for a few downvotes.

And then I took it down because I realized that nobody was going to disagree with me. Not in the GW2 community. They're too stupid and full of themselves. I hate them so much. I can't stand it. I can't stand them or the spineless company known as Arenanet. The whole community is so fucking rotten.

But yeah it was a dumb post I made and I've been so upset with myself for being so stupid and I was hoping it'd never be noticed after I woke up and deleted it. I'm sorry for what I did. I went too far and should've added "this is what you all sound like" at the end, or something.

It's just too much.

Even people in that thread are calling the thread stupid and that's without knowing the post was completely fake.

I was under the impression that the downfall of the Girondins came about because they refused to support a law making it a guillotine offense to not use someone’s preferred pronouns.

Dude was certifiably unhinged in the way he wanted to do things. But I'm pretty sure he would have offed cosby and oj, alongside seinfeld.

Killmonger was a crazy genocidal racist.  The fact that Era posters identify with him, disturbing though it may be, does not surprise me.

Enzom is so good at hearing even the faintest dog whistles, you’d really think he would be able to hear that “colonizers” probably isn’t referring to North Korea or Syria and “children” doesn’t mean Kim Jong Un, usually

We never got to hear Killmonger’s views on the Simpson murders or #metoo or yada yada yada. The colonizer producers had him killed before he could share them.

Relix has lived in PR for years, he's from there, so I assume he's still there.

Lol at all the given examples, which are all examples of viewers missing the point completely and taking the wrong moral because they were entertained. People who unironically agree and identify with Tony Soprano/Tony Montana/Walter White are idiots who are too stupid to think about what they saw. But use them as a way to call someone racist for saying you shouldn't identity with the genocidal villain in Black Panther that was revealed IN THE MOVIE TO NOT EVEN GIVE A SHIT ABOUT REPRESENTATION OR ANYTHING, HE WAS JUST MAD AND WANTED PEOPLE TO HURT LIKE HIM just because he's black.

It's not a good argument anyway because people who like to watch Walter White are not in the majority of cases saying "I would literally cook meth with him and sell it, fuck yeah"

People who like to watch Darth Vader are not in the majority of cases saying "I would totes join the empire and hopefully become a storm trooper or elite guard, the galaxy needs that kind of order"

We like to watch them because they are cool, not because we would literally join their cause, and anyone who does say that shit usually catches unending side-eye

So people literally saying "I agree with Killmonger's cause and would join his fight" are exactly as fucked in the head as people saying "I would join Darth Vader"

Some resetti members are just completely unable to cope with this. Probably because it's an example of what their plan of "shit on all people who disagree with you for being racist/sexist/*ist as loudly as possible" leads to in the real world.

edit: uh oh, she shit on a marvel movie too...which one will they defend?

Pig farming is big business around here. See plenty of Trump stickers around here. Whoops.

Do those farmers know China buys their pork? Or do they just assume it's all Americans that are buying it? Do they even know their pork may be purchased by other countries?

For all the people saying that right now everyone in their work environment gets along, what about the future? What if Trump is allowed to keep escalating his horribleness, which is the trend so far? I'm not talking outright genocide. I'm talking things like people being denaturalized and deported for bullshit reasons. People being apprehended for having undesirable political views.

One day people will be apprehended for undesirable political views, which is why right now today we need to make sure people are unemployed for having undesirable political views

given that this guy is apparently so big and influential and given that apparently he had so much respect for jessica before this interaction he could have done a ton to improve this situation by just saying "hey please don't fire people on my account"

lol, this is an amazing attempt to rewrite history. I don't think there was any gamergate involvement on the subreddit when this started blowing up.
