When I was a kid, if you didn't know the answer to a question, that was it. You just didn't get to know.

Want to learn the lyrics to a popular song you heard on the radio? Too bad.
Not sure how far away the Burger King is from the school? Oh well.
Want to check if it's true there are no poisonous snakes indigenous to your state? Not happening.

Before the ubiquitous nature of information, you simply couldn't know things.

And before people say "well you could use a map" where the heck was a 12 year old going to find a town map? It's not like Pokémon where your neighbor's sister has plenty on hand.

Finding the answer to anything that popped in your head was often time consuming, required you to buy something, and required travel. It is amazing that anyone knew anything before the widespread availability of the internet. There were so many things that I wished I could learn about when I was a little kid that I straight up couldn't and it's wild to think how different it is now.

jesus christ, why is he fronting like he's from the fucking middle ages?
If only there was some kind of book with phone numbers listing local businesses and their address!
If only that book was easily obtainable, and on literally every street corner in a phone booth!
If only there was some kind of repository of knowledge, like, some kind of book lending store, where you could look up information without buying things!

I don't really understand why they wouldn't make clear who is and isn't "cancelled" by ERA. It helps avoids needless bans and dogpiles. Not everyone is going through social media with a fine toothed comb on a daily basis looking for excuses to 'cancel' people, even on ERA. We all know people like Boogie or Colin Moriarty are banned on ERA, so why not make it official?

[NekoFever]

“We do not have a list of banned sources to share at this time” implies that a list does exist.

Can't arbitrarily shut down conversations if formal rules of discussion are established

[VomKriege]

To be fair I don't think they've been actioning people posting "content ERA is not providing a platform to", just closing the threads but you'd think you would at least cut on some unnecessary busywork if users had a list and could avoid bothering with doomed to closure threads.

I don't know if it is laziness, incompetence, convenience or fear of ridicule but it is getting absurd.

I just don't know why they don't tire of this endless war they are constantly waging. Seems incredibly exhausting to even pay attention to these Youtube goobers.  Move on with your lives. After Gamergate there seems to be have been an overreaction that has never quite left the community.  It's almost like a religion of sorts. Constant IN and OUT group dynamics at play there. Would make an interesting PhD thesis.

When I was a kid, if you didn't know the answer to a question, that was it. You just didn't get to know.

You could ask? 

Want to learn the lyrics to a popular song you heard on the radio? Too bad.

Weren't these printed in CD cases back in the day?

Not sure how far away the Burger King is from the school? Oh well.

You could call and ask?

Want to check if it's true there are no poisonous snakes indigenous to your state? Not happening.

You could ask?

Before the ubiquitous nature of information, you simply couldn't know things.

Books and newspapers exist? 

And before people say "well you could use a map" where the heck was a 12 year old going to find a town map? It's not like Pokémon where your neighbor's sister has plenty on hand.

In a store and most people certainly had maps?

Finding the answer to anything that popped in your head was often time consuming, required you to buy something, and required travel.

It's wild to think how different information gathering is in 2019 yes but you could know PLENTY OF SHIT even before the internet was invented.

[Himu]

Why are SJW's so offended by "SJW"?

I don't even think it's just insane left people who are SJW's. It's also right wing people. The gamergate people complain about "SJW's" but what did they do the other day? Well, they review bombed Ion Fury for "folding to SJW's". Review bombing because it doesn't fit a specific agenda, doxxing;etc. is SJW behavior. Doesn't matter what the color the stripe. SJW-ism is politically agnostic.

[Averon]

Funny thing is, they constant swear the term "SJW" is a silly insult and they aren't bothered by it. Yet when someone says "SJW" in a serious manner, they don't laugh at that person, instead they get angry, upset, and want that person banned/cancelled ASAP. So, "SJW" will continue to be used if only because people react to it like this:

She literally unironically uses the term "SJW."

[Himu]

I mean, Reset Era is hardly left. Just yesterday they were hoping for US military intervention in Brazil because of the Amazon. They were hoping for war, with America using its imperialist pimp hand. Hardly left. SJW as fuck though.

 

Look at the fat activism I've been posting. They say before and after weight loss pics are "triggering", that you can be healthy at every size. They're SJW's. This doesn't mean social justice or social activism is wrong. Just that they're extremists who flex their activism in regressive ways.

Accept that you're SJW's, Reset.

[Nintex]

Most people behave like SJW these days, especially on the internet.

I'm like one of the few who certainly isn't a SJW. 

However, it is much easier to behave like an SJW and be offended about everything and agree with millions of others that something is offensive.
The Ree's are SJW's because that's the easiest class you can pick in the culture wars.

[Transhuman]

The reason it's a bad term is because it's often used as a catch-all slur against the people airing real grievances that really should be addressed, and whose anger is justified. That's why I never use the term.

There really ought to be a term that specifically singles out the people who take advocacy to the extreme and ruin the movement by making it seem like they are all a bunch of unreasonable, unthinking nuts. For instance, whatever mod banned this user: https://www.resetera.com/threads/i-just-read-about-otherkin-those-who-claim-they-are-are-they-roleplaying-or-do-they-actually-believe-in-it.136330/page-2#post-23816472

SJW is used as a catch all slur against anyone with real grievances?

Problem is, thanks to social media, most who have real grievances also act like unreasonable, unthinking nuts. Many people in Black Lives Matter bring up good points and arguments against police brutality. But then most in the movement also think all white people are racist and that black people can't be racist. 

The Reset Amazon fire thread from yesterday is a great example. They care about the Amazon which is great. But then they also think America should invade Brazil because of it. So having a reasonable view and having a ridiculous, SJW-ish view isn't really that uncommon.

Much easier to just call them SJW's.

[ShutUp]

We all know people like Boogie or Colin Moriarty are banned on ERA, so why not make it official?

If they make it official for all to see, some devs who haven’t heard of the site might stumble upon them one day and the lunacy of who is banned and why will scare them away.

[Nintex]

With SJW's it's all about their dumb feelings and entitlements.

There's an ever growing list of things you must do or must agree with which is not up for debate (unless they say it is, within the tiny constraints they've set for the debate).
The only way to improve is to get challenged, debate and come up with new ideas after looking at topics from multiple points of view. Sometimes I find myself agreeing with people I never thought I would agree with.
However, for the SJW's that will never happen and they grow in numbers (because it is much easier to just conform to group-think and be accepted than making up your own mind).

ResetEra is funnily enough sort of a preview of the direction society as whole in moving in.
On the other hand there's a counter movement of ever more 'radical' free thinkers.

Imagine what sort of following Charles Manson could've had if he had a YouTube channel and Podcast in our day and age.

[VomKriege]

As a side note, living in a country where nuclear power is prominent : it's not a panacea and managing it has its own set of issues (dismantling the plants is still an arduous, not properly mastered process. And waste obviously.). And I'm far from being a nuclear catastrophist. Please someone educate me if I'm wrong but it's also my understanding that Uranium isn't readily available to the point that we could imagine phasing out a big share of coal/oil/gas plants tomorrow with reactors in all major countries.
