As we enter a new decade, I wanted to talk about Allies in relation to both racial and LGBT+ communities. In case one is unaware, an Ally is someone who supports a racial or LGBT+ group but is not a part of that community (i.e. someone who supports LGBT+/minority people but aren’t that LGBT+ identity/minority themselves. Honestly, I personally have issues with the word Ally as it implies that supporting racial/LGBT+ communities isn’t the default but since we live in a very racist/sexist/LGBT+-phobic world, I understand the need for it. The label of ally can be comforting as it lets us know that we are not alone and even if we are different, we can support one another.However, at times, I feel like so-called allies have the potential to overstep in this regard. An ally goes from supporting a voice into overpowering it. And I feel like that can be dangerous. So I feel a need to discuss how to avoid these pitfalls as well as open discussion on the nature of Allies themselves.As stated above, the biggest thing to avoid is to out speak members of the community when that community is being discussed. We see this in many threads where a group of people talks about their experiences with a topic and will meet resistance by others not part of that community. It is important to realize that as an ally, you do not have the same experiences as someone of another racial/LGBT+ group. For instance, I am Asian Asexual man. I do not have the experiences that women or Latino or trans folk have. That doesn’t mean I cannot empathize but it does mean that I cannot speak on the same level as members in that racial/LGBT+ group. As such, it is important to listen to members of that community and make sure their voices are heard and not drowned out.Another thing to realize that just because you are an ally, that doesn’t mean you are part of that group. For instance, I am friends with many in the trans community. This does not make myself an authority figure of the community nor does it make me special for allying with trans folk. Sometimes I feel like people forget this.These were the two bigs ones but this thread is mainly on Ally and making sure we go into the new decade ready to lend our voices to those facing horrible discrimination without risking accidentally silencing those voices instead.
I see this a lot here. People think they need to give their input on something simply because they are in the thread and it's a topic of interest. If you're not part of affected group, before posting,pauseconsider if your take really adds to the discussionread the thread and check if someone actually in affected group already said something similarif so, amplify their post insteadlisten and think even when you disagree to what affected persons are saying before simply reacting to an OP

User banned (3 months): minimizing the atrocities of an extremist terrorist organisationQuoteThat being said...I wouldn't call someone "worse than ISIS".They were skinning people alive.I don't know where you got that from. I have not heard of any instances where ISIS were flaying people or if it were their general policy. They were brutal and ruthless but they generally followed some medieval principles of war.There are also some specific examples in US military and private contractors who you can Def say were "worse than ISIS". The raping, and the war criminal types.

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATIONThis thread has derailed into wider history of the region, and is generating a lot of reports. We are temporarily locking while we go through them.
that's the same TheHunter that posted here for a while and then pretended he didn't know us, right?
I think thehunter116 is probably the worst poster on this board.

The mods banned me for a month in the acephobic thread right before I was going to expand upon my experiences of never dating and being humiliated over it. I'm still extremely bitter over that and the tendency of forum users and mods for incorrectly interpreting and shutting things down without question. God knows how much this makes them salivate.uh-huh. "misrepresenting" mod actions. uh-huh.Is this the first time a mod is so butthurt about being called out as an overly-officious little hitler that they linked to a previous ban in the current ban?(because calling out someone claiming to be irish and claiming that makes them not white because reasons is also pretty uhhhhhhh for a ban. He obviously confused the length of that other ban they got.)

My new years resolution was simple. I opened a new art account on twitter and was to post a full drawing every single day for the rest of the year. Now, it's one hour until the end of the first day of the year and I don't have a drawing done yet, and one hour is not nearly enough time to get a drawing finished. I don't really think it's at all OK to attempt to attempt the challenge after failing the very first day to deliver. Now I'm not in the mood to draw at all. Shit sucks.

Maybe it's time to come out with receipts to clear away all the lies and hearsay once and for all. Doesn't seem like it's ever going to end otherwise, and I'd like to close this garbage out and move on.

Some Ree's seem desperate to return to NeoGAF.To Evilore's credit, especially the gaming side is very readable again.Off Topic and especially Politics are still a mess but at least posters aren't banned for having an opinion that goes against the hive mind.
Happy New Year, fams.Does anyone want to discuss GamerGate?
Contrapoints just uploaded a 1hr 40m video titled "Cancellation", so we're due for a verdict from the Resetera ruling class any minute now.
It's 100 minutes
I'm 5 minutes in and referring to herself as a biological female rubs me all kinds of weird. Definitely will have my energy completely drained by this video.

Why the hell is this 1 hour 40 minutes long?
Taking bets on:Number of pages before thread is closedNumber of banned users
ContraPoints has made various comments and decisions which have hurt the Non-Binary community. Regardless of how you feel about the situation, do not attempt to dismiss the feelings of the affected marginalised communities.
Yeah I’m fine with longer videos, but ones like this start to feel masturbatory. She could get her point across in 20 minutes.
lol she really made a 100 minute cry video about how poor little natalie is just receiving so much criticism for being unapologetic about working with truscumfuck off nat
Depending on the subject or person, 10 minutes is usually my limit.
