You can't stop ideas by saying "stop having that idea" and you don't stop people communicating ideas by saying "don't talk about that idea".
Stick Galileo in a cell and force him to recant all you fucking want, his ideas persist, and yet it moves.

Conflating a falsifiable scientific claim with, say, Ben Shapiro's opinions that are sometimes rooted in his having an imaginary friend seems a bit dishonest.

It's not a deep thought or anything but the only lesson you can take away from history is... Sometimes repression works, sometimes it doesn't. It's less inspiring than "ideas never die" and I wish it wasn't the case, but suppression can be effective.

If we can't kill off the idea that the earths flat when we can go into fucking space and take photos, I don't see how killing off the idea "Its not my fault [bad things] its [those people not like me]s fault" by illegalising that is gonna happen :/

But the action to try and stifle the idea remains the same; by this authority I declare this idea false and forbid its discussion.
Bad ideas are dismantled through exposure to better ideas, not by stifling their expression.
And the point I was making that stifling an idea does almost nothing to stop its propagation, and even less to its existence in peoples minds.

We live in an era in which the common (1st world) person is connected to a device out of necessity, of which social media and the internet plays a large role in one’s life.

 By design people are thrown into sites without much moderation or regulation, which—whatever, with a constant stream of information specifically tailored to manipulate and influence with largely refined, proven strategies.

It’s not a new concept, but waves of news/information are constantly melted down to base levels and thrust upon these devices, and by design people are led into separate sources of information/news/advertising/media and with increased presence throughout time.

Without any oversight, blatant lies are propagated throughout society, and they are further pushed into a connected circle that connects to other niche related groups, while remaining hyper isolated from content that would drive them away.

These bite sized lies and insane beliefs (antivax/flat earth/climate) show real world consequence and there’s a monetary benefit to all parties involved to keep this system going.

Those with vested interests that understand these algorithms and want to game the system are well encouraged to do so as they further feed the social circle with LCD content that can be easily spread and engaged with.

It’s no wonder that disingenuous (not read “ignorant” or “ side I disagree with” ) people like Ben Shapiro can just make up facts or anecdotes with no consequence or risk. He even guest starred in one of PewDiePie’s videos for the “meme”  and not at all for any other reason. He’s just degrading himself in front of an impressionable audience because it’s funny, and totally not because of the direct/indirect pulls towards Conservative content on all your social medias.

Take a look at Anti-Vax material, despite bringing back diseases previously eradicated, Anti-Vax material isn’t just “existing” across the internet, but it’s  thriving.

There’s a problem with how blatant misinformation is irresponsibly handled, and no amount of open debate will cure hyperisolated bubbles that are infesting our society and setting us back hundreds of years.

I’m not saying “removing Ben Shapiro from the internet is great”, but at some point a solution needs to be made so as to prevent some extremely dangerous ideas proliferate among sizable portions of the population that can enact change, but are not necessarily easy to connect to.

I seriously doubt that controlling who says something is going to make people learn to discern information effectively. If anything, the fact that people say “the right side of history” without irony makes me feel that thing will get worse if deplatforming just means “shutting down someone”.

That video, for those who care, is here:


It had 2k views when hobbes posted it, now it's gone viral at half a mil. If you want more search terms to "test" this, ask Rufus.

I think it's actually a little funny and absurd what happened here. YouTube used ML for its recs and perverts kept training it to fetch more videos of kids stretching or trying on swimsuits. I think the easiest solution is that there should be a family setting for accounts so that they don't get sucked into the neural net. That might be a compromise between doing nothing and arranging for a sortie on the YouTube server farm to Protect the Children.

Can you blame them when western game enthusiast sites create shit controversies out of stuff like Nintendo not turning Link into a female? Not to mention succeeding in getting Sony to censor ecchi animu games that wasn't effecting anyone.

They had done it for less in the past, though. (so i will say i can blame them to an extent)

Thats why is so frustrating places like Reee will make this stuff harder to come to the west.

They never should have stopped making this.

IIRC, it ended after he got caught cheating on his wife with a woman 20+ years younger than he is.  And I see recently he was arrested for bad checks or something. 

There was a spin-off made a few years ago called Hansen vs. Predator.

"He may like to be called “Papi," Latin slang for “daddy" — But we have another name for him: predator."

Bascially he posted an Anthem review by some gamergator type youtuber and didn't feel like profusely apologizing for not checking that guys history.

[clothedmacuser]

Ignorance is not a defense. Five seconds of looking at his list of videos tells you everything you need to know. I posted screenshots earlier. Understanding the source of the media you're posting (and no, it doesn't matter if you weren't "the first person to post it") is a bare minimum expectation for this forum.

It's a dumb fucking ban, but given the way reee crucified JK Rowling following a forensic examination of her twitter likes, or PDP for endorsing a guy with some questionable stuff in 1 or 2 of his thousand videos, eh, fuck him.

I mean, apparently Marquis Brownlee is a piece of shit because he tweeted "subscribe to PewDiePie". If you ever associate, retweet, podcast, eat dinner, or take a photo with a person, you're explicitly endorsing everything that person has ever done throughout the course of their life and signal boosting every viewpoint they've ever held.

So the Vic The Creeper thread is becoming a repeat of gamergate threads in NeoGaf. I don’t care enough to verify who tells the truth or not but if is anything like GG during Gaf era is probably a nest of scumbags spreading half truths.

Vic is still a creep, though. And his cult is probably insane in any case.

I don't really know anything about this Vic dude, the accusations or animes or animes cons or whatever but I came across a thread elsewhere and saw people seriously talking about how everything he's ever worked on needs to be redubbed ASAP with a non-rapist, non-gator, LGBTQIA person of color.

So I looked at how much he's done voice work for and
