User Banned (Duration Pending): Transphobic rhetoric, ignoring staff post, and history of modwhining
(Image removed from quote.)


History of modwhining.

This is transphobic rhetoric?

Joanna Harper herself doesn't come close to this conclusion: She effectively says that in some sports it won't have an effect, in others it will. This isn't controversial - it's quite clearly self evident that this won't track across the board. Joanna herself gives the example of how transition therapies won't make you shorter - and this might aid you if you're transitioning as a basketball player, but cause you to lose out if you're transitioning as a gymnast. Her study was very small - and unfortunately it's a bit of a chicken-and-egg situation, because you simply don't have many trans athletes whom you can study because it's so relatively hostile. This makes it very difficult to find study groups. But Harper's is a limited, small study whose conclusion is specifically about running, and more broadly that some effects are nullified, others aren't and thus the comparative advantage will vary from sport to sport. This is Harper's *own* conclusion.

As such, the idea that "anyone concern posting about genetic advantages by transgender women in competitive sports or claiming transgender women have genetic advantages will be treated as transphobia and/or spreading misinformation" is ludicrous.

The Science Is Settled™ please do not spread misinformation by quoting from the studies, ResetERA.com has no interest in allowing ignorance to thrive in threads, thank you.

Also, please do not ignore staff posts that are unrelated to the thread topic, thank you.

Yeah, on this whole "WHITE!" thing, I've noticed a recurring pattern with that Russian-owned shitheel of a "Progressive" Thom Hartmann that's continued on with this Coup ordeal.

Whenever there's a LatinX person he doesn't like, he plays a Race card with no facts to back it up insisting that said LatinX person "Is actually White by the way."

"DiD yOu KnOw ThE dRuG cArTeL lEaDeRs ArE aCtUaLlY wHiTe?" With some psuedogenetics trash about them being "Descended from the Conquistadors" and that their victims in Mexico are all pureblooded Aztec descendants.

And of course now he's calling Guaido a "White Nationalist Neo-Nazi" and insisting that if he wins that Guaido is going to start a genocide against all the brown people in Venezuela or at best start a new Apartheid. Like uh... What? Literally What?

Though given this is Thom Hartmann, I can only assume these are all Kremlin propaganda talking points given his extensive connection to Russia Today.

Bloody tankies... If Trump wasn't president and we had Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders as president, you can bet your sweet ass we'd still be interfering with Venezuela to try and kick the tyrant out. People are suffering, and the longer this continues the worse it's going to be for them. Sure, I'd love a civil uprising, but even those need assistance from the outside. Americans couldn't have successfully revolt against the English back in the 1700s without the aid of France, for example.

Maduro is literally Venezuela's Trump. Stupid, Populist, Authoritarian, Corporate. Looks up to Putin and Xi Baba.

The irony of being Anti Trump but Pro Maduro.

Oh, look. Some people who can afford to have at least their three meals per day complaining that Trump wants to attack Venezuela. So cute.

Who are also able to protest without fear of reprisal, and who aren't having their internet traffic monitored for wrongthink by their authoritarian government

"I don't support a dictator. I'm just against every realistic way to remove them from power by letting perfect be the enemy of better."

Why would anyone be worried about a popular uprising in a dictatorial state that's been propped up by russia anyway? It's not like it would lead to a decade long civil war and humanitarian crisis lol

This is why gaming journalists and any and all gaming YouTubers/podcasters need to post their tax returns along with full details on all their donors and funding.

If they refuse we should assume that like Bernard Sanders they are hiding something sinister. Probably links to Russia and other sources of big conservative money. Much like goes to pay for notch and PewDiePie's international fugitive lifestyles.

So you punch the nazi. Beyond the common assault charge, what have you accomplished?

Preventing the same mistake in the 1930s?

If only someone had say...arrested Hitler and his pals.

Or sent out a bunch of left-wing paramilitaries to battle them in the streets.

Thankfully, we have learned from that mistake.

They really see themselves as revolutionaries. Bitch, if they were 1930's Nazis, you'd be shot in the street in front of your family for punching a Nazi. Don't pretend these situations are at all the same, you nonce.

Centrist germans who weren't in the streets battling for the future of germany are the real ones to blame here

[benjipwns]

Or been punched, since they seem to think being punched will cause you to change your entire weltanschauung. Or at least refuse to act on it.

It's some kind of weird "you gotta stand up to bullies" type ethos that never actually happens in the real world because that's not how most bullying works.

[jorma]

Wasn't there a poster who was going to start working out so he could punch Nazis? What ever happened to him?

he worked himself into a shoot

[benjipwns]

If they're going to punch Nazi's they should at least try going for a Kermit Washington style cave in of the skull instead of that cheap whack that Richard Spencer got that didn't even knock him over let alone out.

[marrec]

And by "battling for the future of germany" I mean denouncing the Freikorps on their podcasts

OH HI ANOTHER RONDA IN MORTAL KOMBAT THREAD!

The thread title was initially "Kotak: "Ronda Rousey Being In Mortal Kombat 11 Is Bullshit."

Yeah, people make mistakes.

Congratulations on being the first to notice it and post about it.

Wow, thats some passive aggresiveness right there!

I wasn't being shitty, just thought I'd point it out.

Definitely the appropriate snarky tone to take and not at all oversensitive...

Riveting discussion!

As a general measuring stick, if a game is not appropriate for broadcast on Twitch it is unlikely to be appropriate here. Games that Valve hides on Steam by default due to "adult only sexual content" are also prohibited. Do not discuss these games or create threads about them.

You know what I want to do? Play Mortal Kombat 11. But I would have to be wild to consider it. I’m not obligated to let bygones be bygones, and I’m just not going to. Rousey’s presence in Mortal Kombat 11 is unacceptable. Sonya could have been played by any number of capable actresses, but instead, NetherRealm stunt casted someone whose very presence makes many of my friends feel completely uncomfortable playing Mortal Kombat 11.

Uhhhhhh... because people have a ton of time, achievements, DLC and friendslists invested on one platform, and thats all going to be sandboxed out and push you to do what is inevitably going to be a one-way-account-transfer to another platform or be stuck with a version of the game that you don't get updates beyond patches for, and that is inevitably going to be EOLed 12-24 months after its removed.

The RL news are a non-issue. Apparently Pysonix and Epic Games were already close in the past. I understand the move.

If you're going to keep the larger part of the userbase still on steam, I wonder what's even the point to stop selling RL on steam.

They're obviously not going to keep the majority of the userbase on steam. They'll pull an "account transfer" ASAP (which will be as soon as the EGS has built the featureset that steam has and it currently doesn't, eg for achievements / matchmaking / frinedslists / notifications / anti-cheat etc)

League of Legends was available for sale on steam once upon a time. Ain't nobody launching LoL through steam as a native steam game in new Date().getFullYear()
