Is there an equivalent of the BDS for cultural appropriation? I want a list of every single element of culture that is off-limits to whites. It's the only way to be sure i'm doing everything I can.

Considering the state of the Democratic Party, shouldn't Max Temkin be getting liberals to play Secret Brocialist?

Beto, Oprah, and Biden can be trying to run honest campaigns while old racists like Bernie could be the Hitler stand-in. Maybe even have the original Hitler on the other face of the card to really drive the point down.

Now that would be awesome.

Or

Just stay with me here for a second.

His family members that were playing were shits and turned it into "Own The Libs: The Game", and he made a reactionary post based off that. That's not a very hard stretch. He obviously didn't know what the game was, and if a family member introduced it as a game making fun of "woke Libtards" - especially if they spent the entire game making fun of him or society as a whole - then his reaction is 100% justified.

But no, let's continue to make hyperbolic, aggressive posts about how he's a fucking moron and is probably a meanie head while his family is great.

That's not a very hard stretch.

Honestly, what that (Dutch?) guy said wasn't even wrong, Japan ""appropriates"" European shit all the time in Mangas and Anime, look at Berserk, Attack on Titan and all that shit; nobody in Europe gives a shit or ever did (rightfully so).
By the same token, i highly doubt any Japanese person living in Japan gives a shit about Mortal Kombat using Ninjas in their game.

Seen from outside, Americans do seem to have developed a fetish for anything ancestry though especially with that "i'm 34/50ths Irish, and 5/7ths Norwegian, therefore...".
And sometimes it's like looking at the cartoon version of the place of origin, which makes it weirder.

Aaaaand, Dutch user is banned. Kinda sad too as I thought the guy with 3 total posts to their name would get a ‘History of...’. But there’s that Junior phase business for a website forum that specifically stated there wouldn’t be juniors.

 

The racial genocide on Dutch era users is really something that needs more attention.
We're slaughtered with no fair trial. I don't like to make Holocaust references but the parallels between Era handling of Dutch natives and the Nuremburg laws warrant a full and independent investigation.

They should learn to sit down and listen what we have to say. I mean, we're literally getting murdered out there.

He's partly right. Obama started questioning if the wars were a good idea and now we've lost a steady and stable foreign policy led by the US.
If only McCain was elected. Syria and Iran would've been in ruins, Putin would've probably died in popular revolt and Trump wouldn't have been close to the Presidency.

All Barack had to do was put boots on the ground. Now we are at least 2(if we're lucky) or 6(if we're unlucky) years away from this Trump circus to end so things can go back to 'normal' again.

So to take an example, why didn't Japanese people in Japan care what was going on with Ghost in the Shell? They weren't the ones affected by it! They weren't losing parts to white people, they weren't passed over in casting because they looked "too exotic", they weren't called unrelatable by focus groups, they weren't struggling to make it in an industry IN AMERICA where they have to put up with stereotypes and white-washing and all the garbage that Asian-americans have to deal with. Japanese people aren't a minority in America if they're in Japan so Japan doesn't give a fuck what we do; they are here though so the people who are being taken advantage of are the minorities HERE.

What's this whole diatribe about? To show you that it's not inherent racial attributes that matters, it's the power dynamic and who is in the minority.

I personally see nothing wrong with an Asian-americans being annoyed that another potential role got swept from under them, but it seems clear that the problem isn't much about Scarlet Johannsson starring in a movie from Japanese culture, as much as it is a problem of general racial disparity an opportunity in America  (in this specific example).

I don't see how that's a problem of appropriation, as opposed to a problem of representation and fair distribution of opportunities.
The director isn't appropriating shit from Asian-americans because the product was created in Japan, more over,  GitS wasn't created "by the Japanese people", but by one specific person (who happened to be Japanese).
It may sound like semantics, but I think this is why we often end up with comical stretches of the term.
It's not that I think cultural appropriation doesn't exist of course, but I think it gets applied to any cultural exchange that seems inconvenient.

Other examples like the Kimono as a Halloween costume are more fitting, tho even there, not all examples are as equally egregious.
(Native Americans have more of a right to be protective than others for example, given their history was essentially almost erased, whereas Japan is still there).

I'll echo what's already been said here: it'll be incredibly disappointing if there aren't non-binary and trans options, not to mention unrealistic as by 2077 we'll almost certainly be at a place where it's completely normalised and no longer marginalised to the extent it is today.

Cyberpunk has always dealt with identity in a progressive and not including this is grotesque

TRANS WOMEN ARE WOMEN YOU FUCKING SHITLORD!

 

[clothedmacuser]

I liked when Crossing Eden argued that by the year 2077 the word cunt wouldn't exist.  You know, because 70 years ago shit, taco, n-word, and doofus were never said. 

I bet 2077 does indeed have a trans option.  You can be male, female, Trans-male, Trans-female or non-binary.  And guess what, besides it saying that in the upper corner of your character sheet nothing else will be different.


PS. I finally realized what taco is a stand in for.  I thought it was for beaner and was giving bork the side eye.

[clothedmacuser]

Was it also Crossing Eden who said that because the female character is wearing underpants and the guy she gets out of bed is naked it shows that they are objectifying the woman and giving the man his life-truth to be naked?

[BikeJesus]

Nah, it was another crazy:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/cyberpunk-2077-gameplay-demo.64691/post-11991125

What I'm wondering about WRT nudity is if they have any underwear options for male characters that are as skimpy as what V showed when she was waking up in her apartment. I don't think it was an accident that they chose the skimpiest possible underwear options outside of pasties. I mean, that's literally about as skimpy as it gets.

I also found it jarring that the dude was naked but she was dressed in said skimpy underwear. Not that clothed sex is unheard of or anything, but, like, that was a deliberate choice they made instead of leaving her naked. It raises questions at a bare minimum. It's hard for me to believe that they aren't abusing the male gaze when they open up with something like that.
 

Whoa, okay, no no no no no. You've completely twisted up my point.

My point is not that it doesn't make sense that she's wearing underwear in context. My point is that they specifically chose THAT type of underwear to show off the female player character. It's the incredible skimpiness of the attire that gets me, not the mere fact that she is actually in her underwear.

The context of me saying that she would look better naked is specifically because the exact choice of underwear is designed to sexualize her past the point of being naked. If she were naked she would look more naturalistic; the thong actually makes her look more sexualized than if they were to simply show her naked. (The same goes to other potential choices of underwear, like lacy lingerie + garters.)

I get the context. I don't care about the context. The context doesn't make the specific choice of clothing - for what is literally their first public reveal of a female protagonist - any better in my eyes.

I'd just like to take a moment to point out how CDPR decided to show the female PC in this underwear in their initial showing:
The dude gets to be naked. She gets put in... the skimpiest underwear set imaginable outside of literally putting her in pasties. Like, seriously? And people claim to see no fuckin' sexism in this thing? Are you kidding me?

Folks have got some fuckin' blinders on, to say the least. It isn't an accident or a coincidence that these things happened. This is literally something they decided to show to a mass audience. And it's fuckin' irritating that everyone's just giving them a pass because "it's so edgy and mature!". Dammit all.
 

The thing is that the underwear is literally designed to sexualize her. Like, that's the entire point of having her wear it? I, at least, don't find anything that rides up my fuckin' ass to be very comfortable, nor do I see the point of underwear that is tight enough to somehow not bare nipples while having little enough fabric to show the entirety of the side boob. And they DELIBERATELY put her in this outfit for the demo. They had... how many other options for underwear? Options that wouldn't have bared her ass for all to see? I don't think I can give them a pass on this one, male "walk of shame" or not.

Because in America the socially acceptable way of dealing with mental illness is through substance abuse as a coping mechanism. Typically starting with alcohol, and then by moving onto hard drugs when that fails.

Actually confronting the issue and seeking help from professionals is seen as weakness and a sign of failure as a human being to the point that "dealing" with the problem on your own by becoming an alcoholic or a drug addict in order to remain relatively functioning is viewed as preferable.

Access to healthcare should be the priority so that the people that can be helped don't have to suffer without it.

I do however absolutely believe that in many cases mental illness can't be beat, and for those people the most humane solution is legalized voluntary euthanasia, if they desire it.

If someone has dealt with severe depression for well over a decade and has shown no improvement even after exhausting all available treatments, and wishes to die, why should they not be allowed to do so with dignity?

It'll just keep getting crazier mods if you don't stop it

[benjipwns]

Look, I'm as big of fan of voluntary things as the next voluntaryist but I'd just like to point out that it's not really illegal to commit suicide under any legal regime due to a loophole.

[BikeJesus]

Yes, we should definitely let people who are mentally unwell make the decision to be euthanized.

It's a large part of it. The rich hate Bernie. That hatred filters through news outlets like CNN and MSNBC, not in direct orders, but the type of people hired slant towards those who approve of the status quo, that filters through twitter and forums and Resetera.

Pretending to like AOC. You might think she's neat when she's nonthreatening. But there's a looooot of people here who pretend to like AOC, who talks about actual justic, while talking up Harris like she's the second coming and will be the greatest president ever when her biggest accomplishment was letting Steve Mnuchin get away with literally illegally seizing people's homes, a miscarriage of justice and reinforcing the two tiered justice system in the United States. At the end of the day, something is going to give and I think a lot of those people including you would chose to protect the rich from the consequences of their own abuses against economic and social justice when the chips are down.

Because it destabilizes everything around you, like if you're the sole caretaker for a child...if literally anyone relies on you or loves you, you could grant them some lovely mental health issues, as they go around in circles in their head what they could've done differently to save you...depending on how you kill yourself you could also grant lots of mental trauma to whoever finds you or watches you splatter...you create a sudden burden on the state and everyone in your vicinity as they have to clean up the mess you made and figure out how to deal with your property...
