I’m just gonna say it - Black people have just been minding our business and it’s white people and some of the asian community who are responsible for the breakdown in communication. It is unfortunate that they seem more interested in capitalizing on these incidents to spread anti-black narratives/undermine black movements than having the legitimate conversations the outbreak of violence deserves. With that being said, I don’t understand why the black community should bear the responsibility to normalize relations with the asian community who we have always stood up for.

I'm sorry, but I don't think it is productive to point fingers at the Asian community and is borderline victim blaming here.

*Speaking as an Asian-American here.

I want to be clear - I’m not saying asian people are responsible for being attacked. That’s crazy and obviously wrong. I’m saying they have responsibility for the tense relationship and mistrust between themselves and the black community. Black people are always in a position of supporting other racial and ethnic groups where anti-blackness is prominent, and the asian community is no exception to that.

I've been thinking of how to respond to you, but I honestly don't have stats to back up any of my feelings, other than general disagreement that the Black community is always lock-step with other communities.

I will say with confidence, however, that pointing fingers at another non-White community to "fix it" isn't really helpful, especially in these precarious times. If you want to point fingers, you should focus your energy on the pressure that White people put on the As-Am community to demonize the Black community alongside them. We should be asking As-Am communities to continue to examine their proximity to Whiteness, and how they're weaponized against us and then immediately discarded, to the benefit of White people.

Just a round-a-bout way of saying there's constructive ways to ask for other minority groups to do work without simply casting blame and not offering more constructive analysis.

::sigh::

Never mind. I'm out.

Asian community getting shit on from a great height by the black community AGAIN!!!

Great community you got there Reeeeesetera! Very inclusive safe space for all minorities.

So, I wanted to get to this really quickly, because I see this thread heading in two paths. One, we end up talking about almost nothing and end up with the same resentment OR two, it becomes a shitshow, everyone gets banned, and we end up talking about almost nothing.

I give this maybe another page tops before OP requests thread lock.

There is anti-Other sentiment within all communities. The Black people putting in WORK are literally putting their lives on the line for Asian people as we speak. The shit Black activists are tackling are to the benefit of ALL Americans and it's always been that way. The Civil Rights and Black Rights Movements were anti-racist and anti-imperialist while the US was raining death on Asia. Immigration was in the former's platform IIRC. All those soldiers who are dead or locked up put their lives on the line for everybody. Black folks have done way more for everybody than people like to admit.

"Know your fucking place Chinaman! Us black people have been fighting your battles for decades, so a little black on Asian violence is ok, especially because you lot managed to succeed in this society with your education and hard work and shit."

Should we infer that the absence of rebuttal confirms this suspicion?

wait a minute

So what ever happened to the transparency that era was founded upon?
Yup I agree. GAF bans were 'personal vendettas' by the mod team. Say they didnt like you, they kept tabs on your account and banned you for the smallest infractions and to top it off, they would give you a smart ass reason to spite you. So far, this is not the case here so its progress. Well...

It's barely past one page and people are noping the fuck out of the conversation. If the mods had any fortitude, they'd give woman a one week ban for victim blaming and thread derailing, but they don't and they hate Asians so they'll look for a sacrificial white person to ban instead.

[HaughtyFrank]

This is a good decision, I can't imagine how many lives this game has already taken, but at least ERA won't be complicit in the death of anyone else going forward.

That's a pretty obvious troll. Funny, but pretty obvious.

The reality is that the BCT community have been wearing the oppression olympics gold medal since gaf and are simply incapable/unwilling to accept that;

1. Any other community has experienced any hardship, oppression, or discrimination in the same stratosphere as their own.
2. That they bear any responsibility whatsoever for any other community's suffering.

[ShutUp]

 Despite white people so much while posting on a board dominated by white people. 

[benjipwns]

Also, people still playing the "think of the Devs" card in 2021 is bewildering. As if the low-paid, insecure jobs of a few hundred people are more important than trans people's lives. And to die on that hill, over an IP based on a children's book series full of racism, sexism, classism, pro-authoritarianism, gayrasure and other issues is just... I can't even.

The bonfire is lit
 

There is a TON of racism in the country. Look at what went down In Nova Scotia. Canada is just better at hiding its shit.

One of the points Adam Curtis made in his latest docs is that all modern societies (China, America, Russia, England etc.) are build on the labour, extortion and exploitation of the generations that came before and no society has been able to reconcile with that reality. In fact in many cases the conquerers felt guilty about what they had done and were haunted by fears of revenge. So instead they made up romantic stories about past glory and peace which are not based on reality and used those stories to create new societies, colonies, states and political movements that have in time left those conquered or ruled as bewildered and confused as their benefactors while corruption runs rampant.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

gayrasure? They just removed a single letter. Why couldn't they just go with gay erasure?

yeah, erasure are plenty gay on their own merits

Any other combination it would be a perm ban.

Against Asians though its less than making fun of Sony.

So they boosted woman's ban from two weeks to tbd:

User banned (duration tbd by admin review): Disrupting a sensitive thread about race relations over a series of posts. Previous ban for similar behaviour.

Bet they won't let this one sit around for 20-30 days waiting for "admin review" like some I found the other day!

And then they call in the mods to clean things up after they've shat themselves on purpose.

People who know they are protected often take their privileged status for granted, take it too far, and eventually self-destruct. That is what happened to Ketkat, and now potentially woman. Being a PoC and/or LGBT doesn't erase the human tendency to be assholes abusing their elevated status over others.

[Uncle]

so jason schreier reports on resetera banning all talk of harry potter, but doesn't report on resetera threads highlighting the massive anti-asian racism problem and the forum's casual bigotry against trans people?

 

and yet historically there have been a lot of forum/social media stances being taken, boycotting a game over its censorship, or steam forums in an uproar over this or that, and it gets dismissed as "well that site is horrifically racist, what do we care when a bunch of racists get mad about nothing"


era is self-admittedly a horrifically racist and bigoted forum and yet their opinion gets taken seriously

If what goes on at Resetera is news worthy, doesn't that also justify the site staff's decisions to some extent in the minds of reporters?  Their definition of bigotry can be seen as the "correct" one in the eyes of the journalist arm of the industry.

So why have there not been any articles on the guy that's literally in charge of Halo getting banned for racism?

ResetEra, a popular video game forum known for constantly surfacing leaks and industry news, is now attracting attention following a moderation decision taken by the site’s moderation staff. After deliberating on both Rowling’s history of transphobic comments and Leavitt’s YouTube channel, ResetEra admins decided to ban all promotional discussions of the game going forward.

According to the staff, ResetEra has never done something like this before — but in light of Rowling’s reach, influence, and power, the stewards of the community felt they couldn’t sit idly on the topic. Closer to the game’s release, the staff might revisit whether or not to allow a bigger discussion thread, but should that transpire, it will be text-only — a contrast from the forum’s typically robust, media-rich official threads, or OTs. The thread will also make sure to lay out the wider issues surrounding the game, forum administrators said.

[Pwnz]

Reminder that the entire plot of Harry Potter 2 revolves around a massive snake (dick) in the girls' bathroom that is hidden/not easily visible wreaking havoc and causing the downfall of the entire school.

Also in the first book Hermione was assaulted by a massive troll intruding in the girls' bathroom.

Also in book 6 Malfoy got savagely disfigured in the girls' bathroom.

And also that incident where Moaning Myrtle was killed by a boy in the girls' bathroom.

There's clearly a pattern here.

 

... Fuck

Well when you lay it out like that....

Just....so much yikes. Holy shit. Thanks for laying all of those points out. Absolute garbage person

That's uh...

https://www.themarysue.com/j-k-rowlings-fatphobia-needs-to-be-acknowledged/

J.K. Rowling has been dragged for her transphobia, and YouTubers Lindsay Ellis and ContraPoints have both released videos breaking down the issues with her statements, how it manifested in her work, as well as the harmful ways pop culture have contributed to this problem. However, in watching Ellis’s latest video, I was reminded that Rowling is fatphobic as hell.

In Harry Potter, there were so many characters who were fat that Rowling treated with overwhelming malice. Beauty is often shorthand for goodness, and while there were characters who were “gaunt,” there are also lots of fat jokes

preach sister!

[Averon]

They are in complete "bitch eating crackers" mode with Rowling. They are nitpicking every aspect of Harry Potter and purposely finding stuff to be offended by to further justify their hatred of Rowling. All of a sudden, they all discover at the same time that Harry Potter is transphobic, full of rape apologia, fatphobic, racist, MAGA chud friendly, and whatever else they can conjure up in their heads to make Harry Potter a work written by Satan himself.

How was Harry Potter able to spend the last 20 years getting away with being a dangerous, satanic work that has millions of fans worldwide and several successful blockbuster movie adaptations without anyone noticing the "obvious" signs of its vileness? 

[ShutUp]

The ones most upset were probably newborns when Harry Potter popularity really took off. I remember the hype when they first announced the casting of the three main kids for the movies. Not a soul alive was talking about any of these supposed problems.

Though that was before social media was a thing so maybe there were rumblings about it then but it didn't have anywhere near the platforms it has now.

If there is one reassuring thing about all this Harry Potter furore, it's that no matter how many shitty articles are written by so-called journalists based on the absolute stupidity of Resetera and the woke Twitter/YouTube mafia, it will have absolutely zero effect on the sales of the game and the general population's opinion about Harry Potter or JK Rowling.

Based on the devs blocking that guy on Twitter without acknowledging the issue at all, I'm gonna go with "the devs are nazi fucks"

Yeah...

But to instead go radio silent is not a good look at all.

Calling the developers of this game nazis or nazi sympathizers is another.
