this poor dumb motherfucker was trying to be contrite, thoughtful, looking inward to address his own whiteness and privilege as we have all been charged to do, pre-apologized for his internal struggles, and he will pay for it forever as if he'd been mel gibson telling his girlfriend he hoped she'd be raped by a pack of african gentlemen

I love how they act like it happened like 6 months ago. The story was revealed a year or two ago, the event was 30? Years ago! He’s apologetic, contrite, and clearly showing remorse and trying to make amends. All things ERA demands from people, but are somehow unable to actually show themselves.

Recently in this forum I've noticed people calling for the "stupid" to be denied freedom of speech, voting rights, raising children, and so on. This isn't about someone doing something stupid that endangers a child, or voting based on lies and conspiracy, or spouting nonsense. It's the idea that you can quickly whip out a label, something you're certain YOU aren't but THEY are, and then use that label to deny them basic human rights.

Don't do that shit.

This is how you get people who view themselves as superior deciding they get to take away rights from people they view as inferior. This is how you turn into a rhinoceros. Never ever ever view your perceived sense of superiority as a reason for denying rights to your fellow human beings who have the exact same brains that you do.

What an awful comment...

Can we please not do this? "the British" is some 67 million people. You're making a generalization, which in itself is racist and has no place on a forum such as this one. If someone (or more than one as it is the case) was racist to me in China, should I say "the Chinese are racists" even though the term includes over 1.4 billion people? Do you understand (or even care) why a generalization can be problematic?

You should really think more before throwing generalizations like this one here; even as a joke it's in poor taste. Unless you truly believe 60 million people in the UK are all "exploitative and manipulative" in which case, yikes

Folks get angry when we're helpless to enact change or even barriers against the rising tide of right wing fascism in every single facet of our lives.

I don't want them to not vote, I want them to stop voting for making every one of our lives worse. The former just sounds appealing in the moment before I get up and go on with my day, because unlike them I don't have elected offiicials to do it for me.

"I don't want them to stop vote, I just want them to be only able to vote for what I approve of"

I'm not sure why these people who constantly proclaim to be against fascism have such fascistic ideas

I think free speech on the internet is a huge problem. Anyone can say anything and that would be great if we didn’t have a massive problem of stupid people who will believe everything they read without checking the source.
He's talking about ResetEra.

Because of misinformation a large group of people now believe that schools are leaving out litter boxes for furries. And I’m sure some of them are unhinged and are going to plan and commit acts of violence because of it.

Freedom of speech is technically a good idea. But when stupid, unhinged, and violent people are involved it’s a problem because it causes acts of violence.

It also causes a problem because these
People really believe democrats are satanic baby eaters and I’m sure a lot of acts of violence is because of this line of thinking.

Maybe there needs to be some sort of line that can’t be crossed when free speech is involved. Maybe there needs to be some sort of third party system working with the government to find the people posting such blatant misinformation and punish them or at least silence them.

Maybe the era of “True” free speech needs to end until people become more educated.

What are your thoughts ERA? I know it’s a unpopular take but I don’t see any solution currently.

I'm ok with people believing that schools left out litterboxes for furry children if that results in era types feeling compelled to never allow this to actually happen, lest it make the statement true

more of that, please

“I don’t think what she said was offensive really. I don’t know why but there’s a whole Twitter generation of people who hang around waiting to be offended.

Reminder JKR started getting death threats and hate tweets because she liked a tweet by an unperson.

Unrelated post from bitch-eating-crackers-OT:
I don't know if this warrants its own thread, but apparently Mindy Kaling (The Office, upcoming Velma series on HBO Max) found this tweet humorous so she liked the tweet and it's now being pointed out on Twitter as we speak

Mindy unliked the tweet

It probably came across her timeline out of context

Also ultimately the media has worked over time to whitewash jk Rowling so unless you're paying attention it's probably easy for really busy people to just not associate her with transphobia sadly.

it unlikes the tweet, or it gets the hose. Unlike or hose.

"Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences" is the stupidest fucking phrase people have latched onto because in their mind, something that is explicitly illegal is a valid "consequence".  Like no, physical violence is not how you respond to speech, ya fuckin lunatics. 

The original xkcd comic doesn't even apply to these people's worldview anymore.

The only solution is for developers to take the Mohammed route and not depict female characters on screen at all. Just say they exist, but make it Haram to show them on screen. Either that, or require them to wear full burka whenever they appear. It's the only way.

You're talking down to a Black professional animator. I already fucking know what it's like to have your art and yourself as an artist, both in present day and historically, undervalued and considered worthless.
But your flippant rhetoric about the painting itself being expendable is the same shit people say about what I do, and my craft in general.

We can criticize how high art ties back into systems of capitalism and class and white supremacy without targeting the very existence of the original works themselves. None of that please.

You're talking down to a Black professional animator. I already fucking know what it's like to have your art and yourself as an artist, both in present day and historically, undervalued and considered worthless.
But your flippant rhetoric about the painting itself being expendable is the same shit people say about what I do, and my craft in general.

We can criticize how high art ties back into systems of capitalism and class and white supremacy without targeting the very existence of the original works themselves. None of that please.

Let it be known, had this painting been destroyed, I would've lost no sleep.

However, destroying it isn't saving the environment. It's like putting a black square as your avatar to protest police brutality. That stupid, white liberal shit can't stop bullets. It's a nothing gesture beyond a brief spark of attention.

Yes, in a philosophical vacuum, the planet > art. But in practical reality you could Thanos snap away every piece of art and the ability for humans to create art, and guess what? The planet world still be on fire because art isn't the problem.

The fucking oil barons are.

Pretty funny that Nepenthe takes this stance considering whenever someone expresses concern over the businesses getting destroyed during a riot she tells people to get fucked.

she's been working on them's fightin' herds, the my little pony fighting game which was cease and desisted into being about generic barnyard animals instead

it's probably doxing to know this even though it's all just based on publicly available information she's posted

Quote from: Elegant Weapon
A beloved white male celebrity admitting unprovoked to stalking a black neighborhood looking for any random black men to intimidate and threaten wouldn’t disrupt that white man’s career in any era of this country.

I sincerely hope that “Atlanta” did not pay him for his appearance.

this poor dumb motherfucker was trying to be contrite, thoughtful, looking inward to address his own whiteness and privilege as we have all been charged to do, pre-apologized for his internal struggles, and he will pay for it forever as if he'd been mel gibson telling his girlfriend he hoped she'd be raped by a pack of african gentlemen
I love how they act like it happened like 6 months ago. The story was revealed a year or two ago, the event was 30? Years ago! He’s apologetic, contrite, and clearly showing remorse and trying to make amends. All things ERA demands from people, but are somehow unable to actually show themselves.
I'll know he truly wants to make amends when he agrees to star in a few MCU films for free. Until then this white supremacist can FUUUCCCCKKKK OOOFFFOOOOFFFFF.

Because of misinformation a large group of people now believe that schools are leaving out litter boxes for furries. And I’m sure some of them are unhinged and are going to plan and commit acts of violence because of it.

Freedom of speech is technically a good idea. But when stupid, unhinged, and violent people are involved it’s a problem because it causes acts of violence.

It also causes a problem because these
People really believe democrats are satanic baby eaters and I’m sure a lot of acts of violence is because of this line of thinking.

Maybe there needs to be some sort of line that can’t be crossed when free speech is involved. Maybe there needs to be some sort of third party system working with the government to find the people posting such blatant misinformation and punish them or at least silence them.

Maybe the era of “True” free speech needs to end until people become more educated.

What are your thoughts ERA? I know it’s a unpopular take but I don’t see any solution currently.
This dude is outright saying he thinks the government should be silencing and further punishing people if it thinks speech MIGHT POTENTIALLY lead to violence that has yet to happen from imaginary people he "knows" must be out there somewhere. And he thinks he supports free speech at all?

I'm not clicking on this thread because I "know" there won't be significant push back against this.

and again: citation needed that any given speech cannot possibly ever lead to violence

if I say "oh those are nice flowers neighbor" it's possible that another neighbor is an era poster and interprets that as saying that their flowers are not as good because I've never praised them and take it as a pointed insult which must have been brought about due to my political leanings which justifies any and all violence against me

or if you say "climate change is real and is leading us all to doom" that could easily and obviously lead someone to commit violence

but it's true, so I guess we don't censor that?

but then who determines what is true enough not to censor?

Forget saying that climate change will "literally burn" the planet and leave it unhospitable to all life. What about an entire mass culture that cultivates the idea that anyone who says something you don't like is ontologically evil, that no action against them is wrong, that they're too stupid or morally broken to deserve rights or protection from violence, that their inherent sin moral depravity means they deserve random acts of chaos against them in retaliation for their crimes, that they're all part of a giant conspiracy led by a wealthy cabal out to murder people, that they're currently carrying out an ongoing genocide, that their one lone obsessive goal and their every act is seeking to murder you personally, that we're in a constant state of universal war against these people with existential and immediate consequences in every area of life and every potential subject, etc.

We have historical examples of exactly that type of speech leading to actual literal violence and mass murders, surely the powerful conspiracy that sits in power should want to suppress and punish that kind of speech. Yet wooooosh, right over the heads of these totalitarian idiots. (Who I, of course, believe should maintain their free speech rights.)

I think it's very interesting how stuff like Cyberpunk and Hogwards Legacy has been handled over at ree vs games made by Blizzard, the company behind the systemic serial sexual harassment/abuse of women  that went on for over a decade. All of it so numerous and well documented that the state of California went after them.

Quote from: Baphomet
I was having a conversation with a friend earlier and he started talking about he didn’t like how he liked and how much weight he’s put on these past years. I told him to just stop eating out everyday, replace sodas with more water intake and exercise for at least more than 14 mins and you will lose weight. He then made an excuse about how that wouldn’t help at all and that losing weight is a lot more complicated than that…

I dislike people who try to justify being lazy and not putting an effort to improve their health/self image. I was guilty of this year until last month when I really took it seriously and started eating better and have a consistent exercise schedule , losing weight is really easy , it’s finding the willpower to keep doing your schedule that most people can’t do.

Go get some psychological help, you clearly need it. The only thing your posts are doing is proving him correct.

RIP to Coltrane, he seemed like a genuinely nice person who was liked by everyone that worked with him. I first saw him in Cracker but Hagrid was his best role and the one he’ll be remembered for

I still have a thread bookmarked from a couple of years ago where I predicted the majority of PS5/XSX titles would have 60FPS as an option. Most of you were clowning me in that thread. Now 2 years later a game dares not include 60FPS and the internet is having a hissy fit. Now time to see if this will become a thing now that crossgen is ending or if I will be right and get to make many of you eat Crow. I plan to revisit the thread in 2025 (I set a reminder in my calendar). Even if I'm right I'll probably get criticized for bringing up "old news" but at least I'll have personal satisfaction.

The Same thing happened when I predicted that the majority of posters would go all digital like 10 years ago on GAF, I was clowned to no end and I bet many of those that were clowning me now are mostly digital.

I'd normally say "who remembers shit like this" but given how often reee drags people for saying something decades ago it wouldn't make much sense

This doesn't make any sense, how are ConVito's posts proving him correct?

Reminder, this is what Coltrane said (per Pink News):


I enjoyed his portrayal of Hagrid and will cherish it forever but I'm not gonna pretend that he was a saint, given these statements.
The part about going on the internet waiting for something to be offended about. Coltrane’s comments were not TERF or anti trans, he simply stuck up for his friend because she was getting death threats from people online because of her comments (which he neither agreed or disagreed with), and thought that too many people (in general) are too sensitive and get angry over everything. Something that ConVito is proving correct by continuing to come into this thread which is about the news of Coltrane’s passing, for the sole purpose of bashing the man and twisting his comments to accuse him of being a TERF. That kind of behavior is not normal, is inappropriate and the person should seek help.

Dang, imagine caring more about the feelings of a dead guy than the trans folk who are constantly being attacked by people like Rowling who dress it up as Feminism.

He said this well past Rowling equated that trans women are just male rapists, so yeah, naw. You’re telling trans women to just shut up and be quiet as people deny their existence.
And here’s another person who is also proving his point correct. I simply stated that I don’t think its normal or appropriate behavior for someone to twist a dead person’s words who they have never met and continuously attack their character and promising to continue doing so on every page in a thread about said person’s death in which people are trying to pay their respects, with me recommending that they get help.

You’ve somehow managed to twist my words as an attack and accused me of basically being a transphobic bigot who is trying to tell trans women to shut up, when I have said no such thing.
