:cop User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissing Concerns of Racism
Quote from: SlyCoug88
Man y'all have had way different experiences with mormons than I have.

I'm not really sure what the university could have done differently in the moment. It sounds like they put police/security in place as soon as they were made aware and weren't able to identify the individual (who wasn't even a student there) at the time. It's unclear what was said to the player, but it sure seems like the university is trying to do their best to make it right, even if their response isn't perfect.

I dunno, just my 2 cents. I hope that the student athlete is able to have productive conversations and that any problems at the student event are rectified going forward. That said, my experience with mormons have generally been as positive as any other so I'll try not to let one bad actor tarnish my view of generally good people.

It was the 2021 census, the recent anti-trans commentary during the election campaign, and what Richardson calls the “scurrilous” pushback around trans women in sport that made her angry about the progress of TGDNB services, particularly in the bush.

It's a funny coincidence, that probably the only entity in history to use as many acronyms as the woke movement were the Nazi's. They had acronyms for basically everything, from equipment to military units.

FLAK88
Flugzeugabwehrkanone 88mm

PzKpfw
Panzerkampfwagen

OKW
Oberkommando der Wehrmacht

SS
Schutzstaffel

etc.

People will often say that it was the CIA or NASA but those were all formed after WW2 and worked with former Nazi's.
Even Nazi is an acronym which they actually came up with themselves. As the slang used by the Allies was the 'Jerries' or 'Krauts'.

The allies on the other hand mostly used codes, callsigns and codewords.

I note that any attempt to create an acronym that only covers sexuality (e.g. LGB) in order to recognise that same-sex attraction is different to gender identity and faces distinct issues has been considered literal genocide.

Test associate decides to pump fake online and call herself an Engineer. People at Bungie report her to HR. She then calls her co-workers cowards and publicly calls them out. They fire her ass. She is now crying about how Bungie bad.

People in that thread not immediately jumping on her side or starting a crusade against Bungie? Boy if Morrigan gets wind of that thread  :whew

There's gonna be a lot of Dismissing concerns of X messages

Quote from: vixolus
Seems she was with Bungie for… 4 months. And future employers can just search her name and a bunch of hits will come up. Definitely feel like she’s doing more harm to herself by publicizing all of this. I started as an associate and was basically doing “lead” real QA work on my team for over a year. And my first year as an associate rolled into sans associate in my title as is pretty customary, regardless of duties. If you think you deserve a raise based on duties performed you bring that up later at an appropriate time after getting along with your peers and managers. Self claiming a title and creating a hostile work environment (as she said herself) is not the way to do it, at all. Reporting linkedin posts is narc activity though

She stirred up that much shit in less than half a year. Yeah, she probably cooked her chances at a job like this again.

I can understand the need for acronyms if you speak German with all those compound nouns.

She's such a poor writer  :snoop

Quote
"Oh bollocks, that's my phone... again". Strike was seemingly nervous and didn't want to answer his phone but Robin was used to strange boyfriends by now.
"Shouldn't you answer?" said Robin, as she took a sip from her soy milk. "They've called you like 3 times already, maybe it's important?"
"You want an Avacado Toast with ur milk?" the bartender asked, before Robin could answer he tapped on Strikes' shoulder "Just answer the phone laddy, don't make your mum worry".
What was that strange ringtone anyway, it seemed somehow familiar to Robin but before she could finish her thought a man sat down next to the couple and interrupted. "I hear Winter is coming for you my son",
He started laughing for about 5 minutes and then continued.
"That would be the theme song of the Television Show Game of Thrones that played from the speaker of your phone just now, I am correct am I not?"

Robin could do nothing but wonder who this strange man wearing a dapper suit, sporting a small beard and glasses was that suddenly interrupted. "Sorry mate..." said Strike, "Should I set it to buzzin'?"
The phone went silent and the man continued: "You know, in the third season there is a magnificent castle young man. That castle believe it or not is actually located in my homeland.
Legends say that my great great grandfather beheaded the king and was banished but that is all hearsay to sully our great and most famous family name."
"But don't all the seasons have castles sir?" Strike asked.
"The point I am making my boy is that when the king calls you should answer your telephone because the king doesn't take kindly to commoners who don't answer, do you understand?"
Robin didn't know what to think about the events unfolding.

"You know you are important do you not young man?" the man continued. "Yes... I suppose..." Strike said softly as he tried to reach for another cigarette which sadly fell out of his hand.
"Good choice my boy, smoking kills. I once was told that lung cancer kills approximately 5 million people each and every day", "Ok... thanks I guess" Strike answered
The man suddenly shouted to the bartender: "Your best scotch with ice please good sir and your tastiest burger!"
"Isn't it a bit early to drink in the morning Mr....?" Robin could not believe that she had just said that out loud.
The man calmed her down. "Do not worry young lady, no harm done, I have the skin of an elephant and the smarts of a pack of wolves but I do value my freedom and liberty to consume alcohol when it suits me.
I'm pleased to make your acquintance miss and I would offer you a piece of the creature of god I just ordered, although I do believe the liberal marxists in this establishment have indeed already replaced your appetite for healthy meat with avacado toast"
Robin did not know if she should be aroused or disturbed but suddenly noticed the sword on the mans hip.
"I don't want to be unpolite son but I do need you to pick up that phone when the king calls again, do you understand?"
Before the sentence was finished the Game of Thrones theme started playing for the 4th time that day, Strike quickly tried to answer the call but dropped his phone on the floor.
Robin could not contain her curiosity and quickly snatched it before Strike could reach out. She didn't know what she was doing but it felt right somehow. A calling from god perhaps, THE king of kings?

"He.. he...hello? Who... Who... is this?", she could barely speak from all the anxiety.
"WOW this is not at ALL what I expected the big strong Strike to sound like to be honest" the man on the other end answered without stating his name.
Look I needed you to do a job for me but never mind that job it sounds like you're too pretty to do these kind of jobs Strike but I assume you have other assets. You are Strike right?
The Strike with the 100:1 KD in the latest match on Verdansk? I watched you work, Mike made a tape of it. It was fantastic.
We could've used a guy like you but apparently you aren't a guy so that makes this business a bit more complicated. But don't worry I have other jobs too that better fit your talents. Can you dance as well as you shoot?".
"SORRY I THINK THIS IS THE WRONG NUMBER", Robin freaked out and quickly ended the call as Strike lit yet another cigarette. This did not sound like a king, at all.

Just as the mystery man tried to unseath his sword his own phone started buzzing. "Shouldn't you pick that up?" Robin asked as she noticed him fiddling with the strap of his sword and failing to unseath it.
"Well yes..., you got me there with your devious scheme, I shall answer my king as I always do. I've never missed a call during my time here on this earth and I shall not miss a call today"
"Just keep your voice down will ya fellas? Good people are tryin' to have a bite here" the bartender said, "What are you lot doin' anyway? This isn't a theatre"
Robin looked at the mystery man as his face turned red. She could make out a few words like 'useless', 'idiot' and 'bad intelligence' from this so called King but it clearly wasn't a good call for the receiver.
"It seems I was mistaken m'lady. I wish to offer my sincere apologies to you and your fiance. I shall take my leave in my automobile and vacate these premises henceforth".
"Forget about the burger good sir, I bet it was vegan anyway, you may keep the change"

As the man jumped up and rushed out the door leaving a handful of Hungarian quarters on the teller, Strike could only utter the words: "That was the weirdest thing ever".
"Is that your friend leavin' in the fancy Mustang miss?", "Oh... I don't know who that was", "That un is compensatin' let me tell ya."
Robin turned her head and could only see the back of the license plate through the window: "ART - WAR".

"What about the whiskey" asked Strike. "Ah don't worry, me piss is free laddie"

Forget the German/Polish anti-reparations posts.  This is the true lack-of-self awareness bellwether post of Resetera.   


 :ohhh

Ethnic representation is ethnocentric, you say?  "No, no, no, it's different for us."

I'm beginning to understand why the video creator insists that Greeks are non-white because that's the only way you can ask for the characters to look Greek without being called racist

RE learns about nepotism:

https://www.resetera.com/threads/the-take-nepo-babies-are-the-symbol-of-our-broken-meritocracy.627565/

Did they realize that Nepotism has existed since forever and in worse ways than Jaden Smith?

Fucking Breadtube…


Jaden Smith? Sounds like Black people business to me.

Yeah... you think those people considered themselves Greek dude? Their concept of the nation-state was a little different from ours.

Plus everyone knows Alexander wasn't Greek.

If this is to be believed Kiwifarms went even crazier than usual during those last two weeks.

We have blocked Kiwifarms. Visitors to any of the Kiwifarms sites that use any of Cloudflare's services will see a Cloudflare block page and a link to this post. Kiwifarms may move their sites to other providers and, in doing so, come back online, but we have taken steps to block their content from being accessed through our infrastructure.

This is an extraordinary decision for us to make and, given Cloudflare's role as an Internet infrastructure provider, a dangerous one that we are not comfortable with. However, the rhetoric on the Kiwifarms site and specific, targeted threats have escalated over the last 48 hours to the point that we believe there is an unprecedented emergency and immediate threat to human life unlike we have previously seen from Kiwifarms or any other customer before.

Quote
We are also not taking this action directly because of the pressure campaign. While we have empathy for its organizers, we are committed as a security provider to protecting our customers even when they run deeply afoul of popular opinion or even our own morals. The policy we articulated last Wednesday remains our policy. We continue to believe that the best way to relegate cyberattacks to the dustbin of history is to give everyone the tools to prevent them.

However, as the pressure campaign escalated, so did the rhetoric on the Kiwifarms site. Feeling attacked, users of the site became even more aggressive. Over the last two weeks, we have proactively reached out to law enforcement in multiple jurisdictions highlighting what we believe are potential criminal acts and imminent threats to human life that were posted to the site.

their wording that this is an "emergency measure due to imminent threats" seems to mean they'd be happy to have them back once the emergency is over

Keffals, a trans girl, got swatted, seemingly by Kiwifarms, so she started a "drop Kiwifarms" campaign targeted at cloudflare. Meanwhile kiwifarms continued to stalk her, even finding the hotel she moved to. First cloudflare made a statement that they wouldn't drop the site even if they think the content is disgusting, but they obviously changed their mind now.

I'm actually not entirely sure, that's why edited it back out again. Only saw here that she also doxxed the mother of some kiwifarms guy which I guess is kind of an eye for an eye revenge but doesn't put her in the best light either.

So apparently Greeks are not white anymore

Is that a step forward or a step backward? I don't know.
Lol, I love when Resetera gets all racist when white people from Europe don't meet their narrow definition of what white people should be. Especially when they are talking about people from the cradle of European civilisation.

what sucks is there's no evidence of where the swatting came from, yet keffals and every news report about it says it was definitely from kiwifarms

the site is pretty reprehensible in many ways, but it's against their own rules to troll the people they gossip about (they say it makes it less funny)

I've looked at a few threads to see what all the fuss is about and when people are like "lol I tweeted at her that she's fat" everyone dogpiles them for being a stupid edgelord and they get banned

now I would not be surprised if they were swatted using a home address sourced from kiwifarms, and ideally forum users could point and laugh from afar without needing to keep full bios in the OP, which is probably the main contention against the site

The last time there was a public thread about Kiwi Farms on ResetERA.com posters started talking about raising money to fund a federal crime. So they instantly move all of them to the hidden section. I assume to make it harder for law enforcement to collect evidence.

You mad af.

Kiwifarm was a scummy site and got taken down by a somebody who played them like fools. You're crying for kiwi like a bitch. Kiwi played the scummy game and got out scummed. Show some appreciation for the winner of the scumming match and stop being a bitch about it.

Bruh, you can't be crying for kiwi. Come on. They got scummed by a based scumbag. She played their scummy game and won. Because the idiot is smarter than them. Clearly. They got burned by an idiot.

If she did indeed lie about everything and doxxed everyone. That is based. She is based for outscumming a group of scumbags.

Suggesting otherwise is being a bitch about this. I couldn't give a fuck about any of them. Probably going to miss the gossip on kiwi.
