Quote from: nudemacusers on June 30, 2020, 01:18:06 PMOh how did I miss this nugget Quote I mean it is, and if this actually an honest teardown, Mike Z wouldn't be referenced at all, the issue of BunnyAyu playing up the concept of sexualizing minors being it's own issue instead of a chip to negate a different argument. But I digress, let's talk about this. I'll admit, I had to learn and be convinced of why this was a big deal on my own because so much anime, SO MUCH OF IT, is sexualizing minors. Your favorite show does it, the show of the season does it, the show that was recommended to you does it, it is SO normalized and SO regular that it's pretty easy to not see it as a problem, which is in and of itself a problem. It's so normalized that cute buzzwords like loli and shota are considered jokes and tropes, something to laugh at while being fawned over. MHA is the most popular (maybe second most popular) anime in the world and EVERY SINGLE ONE of it's under aged female cast are sexed up. And it needs to stop. But again, good luck convincing creators to do that when stuff like MHA is so overwhelming popular. Where the creator's own personal insert is literally the comedic pervert of the show. I can totally understand why someone would need to be told why this is isn't okay. I've been convinced about why shows that I've enjoyed are absolutely toxic on the subject matter. I personally thought Made in Abyss was show of the year until I started talking with some people about how ready that show is to sexually abuse and humiliate characters who are under the age of 10 for no reason other than shock value. It's something that has to be taught and if you grow up in "anime culture", It can be difficult to see the trees from the forest. I get that. So in BunnyAyumi's case, someone who's not only been part of that anime culture for the majority of her life but is mired in it as both her hobby and profession and is surrounded by people who continue to normalize this behavior, I can chock this one up as needing to be told. This is a lesson that anime fans have to go through, being able to understand that the media you injest has very real, very serious negative connotations that need to be addressed and can't be brushed off because "eh, it's all like that". I grew up around loli jokes because that content was always there starring me and those around me in the face. I had to LEARN that it was a big deal. I had to be made to understand. Again, I feel like this is only being brought up because of other controversies but it's often in times of struggle that we learn about things we do and things we are that aren't healthy. I can only hope this being brought up makes BunnyAyu think about some of this stuff a little harder and not just blindly promote harmful material with harmful jokes because "that's what I always did growing up". The sexualization of minors in all materials needs to stop. I don't see it stopping in anime or manga anytime soon, but that doesn't mean that the current course that most of the industry is on is perfectly fine.This is your brain on anime Are posting this to agree or disagree with him?

User banned (permanent): defending pedophilia Quote from: Midnight TrainOof. Well this is a minefield of a topic, and I know nothing about the people involved, but here's my two cents.On one hand, yeah sexualizing depicted minors is creepy taken at face value. But I think there's some truth to the fact that these aren't real people. You can draw a person and say they're 12 or 20, the intention really doesn't matter, it all comes down to depiction and interpretation. It's fine if that makes you uncomfortable, that's everyone's call to make, but does that make you a pedo or pedo-adjacent? That seems pretty harsh imo, and kind of oblivious to the reality of the situation. Let's not forget that they're fictitious depictions of imaginary people. Bottom line for me is if it's not leading you to sexualize real children, or see children in a sexual light, it shouldn't be seen as a problem. And of course with everything that's within reasonable limits.And on another note, am I crazy for feeling heartwarmed by the notion of women sexualizing shotas? Men have been getting off to lolis for decades, time for some sexual equality in this fandom!

Today's reparations thread has to be one of the worst bloodbaths I've ever seen on ERA - certainly didn't help that OP "accidentally" posted it on the gaming side: https://www.resetera.com/threads/it-is-time-for-european-countries-that-participated-in-colonialism-to-repay-the-places-they-fucked-over.238138/
I have always wondered what kind of immigration laws Europe has that have managed to keep the number of black people who live there so low. Africa is right next door (only 9 miles away at its shortest point) and European countries have profited greatly from doing business in African countries with large black populations. Why aren't black Africans allowed to live in Europe with any meaningful numbers?
Together, the EU and its Member States are the biggest donor to the African continent. Approximately EUR 20 billion a year in development aid is directed to Africa through programmes implemented at a continental, regional and national level. Around 20% of this is managed by the European Commission.

Ignorance really is bliss.After today’s banning bloodbath on RE I’m gonna have to go ahead and disagree with myself on this one. There may be some value in watching them tear each other apart after all.
Every time I log on to this place, it’s a new headline of something negative, something clickbait, or a “call-out” thread. A large sum of post amount to nothing more than name calling and dog-piling. At times, this is due to serious, important subjects that need to be discussed and can be personal to users. Often, it’s an overreaction or exaggeration of events. An example, since ND and Neil Druckman are hot tickets right now, what appears to be a simple mistake of forgetting to credit one of the many artist who worked on the game, a thread was made pretty much vilifying the entire company saying they steal everything and are apparently no good thieves and an awful group. Then the other side vilified the artist (on twitter actual verbal attacks) calling her names like attention seeking, clout chasing, and the like. Hours? A day later the indy artist was properly credited and her album began trending on Spotify. Honestly, I don’t know (and really don’t care about a cover of a cover inspiration credit) what the full story is, but it did seem like an awful lot of negative energy for a topic that was not a big deal. I’m certainly not suggesting we don’t put companies, public figures etc., on notice when they are legit bad actors, but where is the spirit of “we’ll be better” when we left the old place?This is pretty much reddit/gamefaq level of vitriol now. Everything someone doesn’t like is “trash”. “Gross” “disgusting” “get fucked” I think are the most common adjectives on gaming side. With all the “industry needs to do better” posts I keep seeing popping up regarding the breaking news, I do hope some of that mindset is directed here. And no this is not just a vent thread, I’ve not reached some breaking point and am personally doing fine. I just kinda care about this place and it’s lame seeing it fall from its lofty goals. I did say this isn’t just a vent thread though, here’s some basic suggestions - discourage sensationalist thread titles- enforce values of respectful discourse.- discourage being the “first to post a story” and encourage research before making a thread- discourage inflammatory discussions - encourage the golden rule I don’t get what is gained from calling some EA execs “pieces of trash” for 29 pages. Even if it’s true, what does that do for discussion? What does that do to change anything if we’re still going to buy the next battlefield?Sure, every thread and discourse can’t be full or rainbows and ponies, we live in the real world, and it’s ugly and nasty and real issues need to be discussed. Frankly, there’s a lot of intelligent posters here, and I know a higher level of maturity can be reached in discussing these topics. Still, there’s a bad spirit here man, and it wasn’t like that in the beginning. I dunno, we’re all gamers and have some common ground. We like games enough to follow the industry, that’s fairly unique, and we should celebrate and cherish our friendships here. Lately it’s starting to feel like “all lives matter” vs “black lives matter” though. Fox News vs CNN. That’s whack fam.
Typical. Couldn't be bothered to resolve a civil war but can't help themselves to steal artifacts in the turmoil.
Resetera has a bunch of users who have a major hate for Naughty Dog and they’re kind of running the place right now.
