He's an icon of the alt-right who is making a career out of punching down at marginalized people. That's not a leftist. Targeting marginalized communities who are disproportionately victims of violent crime is more than enough to disqualify him from being able to ever be considered a leftist. But his misogyny also contributes to the calculus.

Leftist as a synonym for Pure

This has always been the case.

[PogiJones]

It's strange that you seem to be accusing others of gatekeeping [...]

LGBTQ advocacy isn't the key to the leftist gate.

Sure, it's one of several things, but I wouldn't let them in the gate without that key.

That was a poor summary, tbh. Made her out to be way more hysterical than she was. A passing "all the coastal cities" rephrased into "every coastal city"; "A. death, and B. spending even more money" rephrased into "everyone will die." All the concerns she brought up are legitimate potential issues that arise from climate change.

To be fair, there's a good chance it's barely about video games considering Carmack's interests the last decade.

Which would make it more appropriate for ResetERA.com, not less amirite.

If I were a cynic asshole, I would say all this accusations are genuine coordinated effort from some scumbags to create a artificial #Metoo moment, and some people on RE are on it hence the “this day of all days”.

Carmack's interests in the last decade revolve around Oculus VR which was founded by Palmer Luckey who used his millions to meme for Donald Trump and single-handedly won him the election

Yeah, it sucks to lose the Amazon rainforest but at least more people are watching right-wing YouTube videos.

Capitalism!

Well YouTube just honored PewDiePie for 100 million subscribers, so they don't give a fuck.

The really sad part is this could've all been avoided. There isn't any law, physical or technical, against cleaning up your social media platform of alt-right stuff.

really unbelievable.

Youtube needs to change NOW. but i also blame people. too many people are just absolutely fucking stupid.. how hard is it to just watch gaming videos etc and NOT get suddenly sucked into a vortex of nazi propaganda and looney tunes conspiracy theories?

jesus christ....

Humans weren't prepared to handle the internet in general.

That’s why is was pushed onto us so quickly.

All these social media corporations need to be made accountable for the consequences of what happens in their platforms like fucking yesterday.

But capitalism won't let that happen.

Capitalism will literally end humanity.

The fact that you have upstanding citizens like Jack Posobiec and Michael Tracey pushing Tulsi on Twitter really tells you all you need to know about the motivations of those criticizing her exclusion.

Idk why people are surprised about her going on Fox News. Screaming "rigged" when you legitimately fail is part of the reason we have 90 million debates and people running. Tulsi's always been trash.

they're anti imperialist champions who want to dismantle the military industrial complex, just like tulsi "i literally can't open my mouth without going on about how much i love ARE TROOPS and how much i want to bomb terrorists" gabbard

"Anti-Imperialist"* + "Massively racist/homophobic/etc." is pretty much the core ethos of a Ron Paul supporter type.

Netlix right now:

Eventually (in like 3 years) Disney + will be mandatory and part of everything.

When they get back all the rights to the shows and movies held by other platform it's over.

People are gonna start cutting services and keeping only what they actually watch. Disney has pretty much the children/nostalgic adults market on lockdown.

They were smart to invest two years into developing the service.

Not just because it gave them a ton of time to hype it all up, but it decreases the likelihood that the initial wave of users don't totally destroy the servers.

"all the coastal cities" rephrased into "every coastal city"

"Guys, please be quiet; if you're all talking I can't teach."
"Guys, please be quiet; if every single one of you is talking I can't teach."

You can't see the difference? One is generalized shorthand for "those of you who are talking," while the other is explicitly including each individual.

"All the coastal cities," especially given the context of the phrase and the tone of it, is shorthand for "A significant number of coastal cities." The paraphraser purposely altered it to "every coastal city" because that is a more absolute statement that sounds ridiculous.

You’re probably the one who shouldn’t be taken seriously here

I’m a software development project manager/lead and in the past 15 years I’ve never missed a goal or a milestone

SC is a trainwreck and a textbook example of a grossly missmanaged project due to sheer incompetence by the management

Never missed a milestone? Shit, you must not be in game dev, Or you are not tackling projects that are very ambitious

Nevermind that several game dev / managers all said the same thing in a span of half a dozen posts.

There's quite a wide gulf between being an advocate for the LGBTQ community and creating extremist anti-trans, anti-gay work that is celebrated by the alt-right.

It's strange that you seem to be accusing others of gatekeeping while deciding on what the terms are yourself. Chappelle is an alt-right icon. Not a leftist.

Was it time for old Jason to take a look in the mirror? Probably not, as we all know he likes to silence his accusers

Seems weird they're biding their time to write up articles, I mean usually they just post a screen cap of a tweet and some bollocks and then later update it if they can be assed.
