Most embarrassingly, a section of the document’s conclusion that refers to “[r]ecent research on how violent video games are turning children, mostly boys, into ‘killing zombies’” — a very much unfounded claim — cites as its source an article in a fringe Lyndon LaRouche–affiliated publication that suggests the only person who can solve the problem of “Nintendo killers” is … Lyndon LaRouche. (The article approvingly quotes him explaining that the Pokemon games are turning kids into killers.)

Damn, guess I should have taken those LaRouche flyers they'd hand out every day when I was at university seriously...

Why is it irrelevant when people specifically argue about how it makes women feel?

ResetERA.com's incelsiorlef called it: https://taskandpurpose.com/air-force-joint-base-andrews-incels-threat-brief-2638921306.amp.html

At least one Air Force base is on the lookout for a sinister new threat: angry men who can't get laid.

Personnel at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland were recently treated to a threat brief regarding an "increase in nationwide activity" by self-described "incels," members of an online subculture of "involuntary celibacy" who adopt an ideology of misogyny, mistrust of women, and violence in response to their failed attempts at romantic relationships.

The brief was first made public via a screenshot posted to the popular Air Force amn/nco/snco Facebook page on Tuesday. An Air Force spokesman confirmed the authenticity of the screenshot to Task & Purpose.

"The screenshot was taken from a Joint Base Andrews Intel brief created following basic threat analysis on an increase in nationwide activity by the group," 11th Wing spokesman Aletha Frost told Task & Purpose in an email.

"The intent of the brief was to educate the Joint Base Andrews commanders on the behaviors and activities attributed to the group to safeguard our Airmen/installation," Frost told Task & Purpose.

Btw this is the same people complaining high educated millenials are stuck in menial low income jobs

In the US I've been noticing lately the working class is extremely suspicious of middle/upper middle class professionals. I think the anti-vaxxing, climate change disbeliever, flat earth movement, etc have their roots in this untrustworthyness. The blue collar white people that I know are much much much more right wing than than the white college educated professionals.

The ZattMurdock Wars:

User Banned (Duration Pending): Hostility, thread derail, and gatekeeping over multiple posts and threads; history of similar infractions

definitely unlikely to happen, but I... don’t understand, really. Aren’t you a MCU fan? Or this is just another "gotcha" from me simply speculating at a China re-release? We don’t know what is the extent of this, and while we don’t know that, the fact that we already have confirmation of at least a new location should be exciting to you, if you follow box office. Or you just don’t want Endgame to pass it (there wouldn’t be nothing wrong about that, btw)? Legit curious if this is about Endgame or me posting things, because I really can’t tell if this is banter or something else.

leading to:

I expected some juicy ass shit that got Zatt banned but it was this? This is the most bland ass comment to get banned over.

Wth, Zatt was banned for this? Does not seem fair at all.

🤔 This is what he got banned over?

Something ain’t adding up. That seems rather tame. I was expecting worse. And he apologized

You're not paying attention at all if you think this is the sole reason.

Then just say, "honestly, we're just tired of his annoying ass". That ban message + that post don't go together.

This. Seems like retribution more than anything.

This is ridiculous.. the ban says everything it needs to. He's got a long history of derailing and shitting up threads, gaslighting, blaming other posters for his own hostility, arguing in bad faith, etc. Gatekeeping is only one of the many things he's done for a long time.

Considering how much Zatt gets dogpiled on simply for making claims like a rerelease, of which he basically has been redeemed for with this thread, and yet people derail threads and get hostile at him for making hyperbolic claims and do plenty gatekeeping of their own (such as mocking him for posting insiders estimates from Box Office Theory as if others haven't been doing that for years), I'm at the very least surprised that this is what Zatt gets banned for.

Zatt shouldn’t have been banned for what was described in that post.

He should have been banned for gaslighting, playing the victim card constantly, claiming insider connections/knowledge with no proof, and doing everything he can to get people to notice him.

Remember when he made thread after thread cussing out Disney and making his boycott of their films known in thread after thread that he made about himself that were then locked? Then when he was called out for seeing Captain Marvel before Gunn was reinstated, he claimed to have known it was going to happen beforehand.

Dude is hypocritical to the nth degree. He should have been banned for all that shit happening on loop non stop. But not for what he was apparently banned for this time.

A lot of people bullied Zatt on the box office threads, that’s why i left them. It was sad when every other post was some camouflaged jab at him.

I’m not gonna press the issue but nobody got banned for dunking on Zatt or being extremely hostile to other users the past few weeks. That shit was a lawless wasteland. Still is, with plenty of elitist bullshit jabs being flung around. But Zatt doesn’t even get one day? It does seem a bit targeted

I'm gonna be honest here, as I don't think I've ever openly disagreed with a ban. That seems really harsh and targeted.

Zatt can be overly passionate and argumentative. But he also gets bullied quite a bit. There are long-running posters who get away with literal shit-posting on a regular basis in very specific threads without issue so it kind of sucks to see Zatt get banned for his comments in this thread of all things.

I won't go on about this further than that but this one kind of bothered me.

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION
If you take issue with any ban, you are more than free to contact the mod captains--myself, Mist, Finale Fireworker, and Hecht--in PMs and we will be more than happy to answer any questions or address any concerns. In addition we clarified to modpost to indicate that this behavior was over multiple posts in multiple threads. It is, however, not ok to derail a thread because you don't like a ban.

I’ve dealt with zatt since 2010 on box office forums. He is a certified NUT.
Literally. He needs to be in an institution. It’s hilarious some on era are talking to him as if he is normal. Every post is about him and the next movie he worships and of you diss it you are the devil and if you like it he talks to you like a my little pony fan talks about the next season. He needs help

Both for irrelevant whataboutism. So... Is that an admission that "whataboutism" can be relevant ? Progress.

daily fucking reminder

Whataboutism gives a clue to its meaning in its name. It is not merely the changing of a subject ("What about the economy?") to deflect away from an earlier subject as a political strategy; it’s essentially a reversal of accusation, arguing that an opponent is guilty of an offense just as egregious or worse than what the original party was accused of doing, however unconnected the offenses may be.

the posts above aren't even changing the subject much less accusing anyone of a worse offense

whataboutism in this context would be

Time for some horseshoe theory (1/243)

I honestly think it’s being pushed. I think a group of people wanna break the taboo or make it a bit more acceptable so they’re doing this to ease younger people into it. Conspiracy I know, but I agree with op it’s weird how heavily it’s taken over the porn world.

[VomKriege]

I don't know what to think about it being a thing people get off to. If nothing else, though, it shouldn't be perpetuated in the mainstream because actual people have been hurt by incest. It should be kept to sites where only people who wanna see it will see it.

Some sort of site dedicated to porn you would connect to out of your own volition perhaps ?

Is there some sort of higher standard of acting non-Western porn enforce that I'm not aware of ?
