I love the way these crazy fucks talk.  Along the way in this game of tard telephone, Keffals is a "white supremacist" now.  Loving this right now.


Then again..there's this..




This season of the keffals show is very entertaining

I'm honestly really worried about messofanego's wife rn...I'm sure this is the most she's had to interact with her husband since he started posting on Ree; he needs to get back online for her sake.  :-\
Oh, he's online but terrified he'll get ban again for trying to get games and people from his dossiers ban lol

Quote from: PlanetSmasher
The thing people on the internet need to learn, and realistically, this includes US here on Era as well, is that reality is not an on-off switch. Situations are rarely as clear as "THIS PERSON IS BAD AND THIS PERSON IS GOOD". Keffals did a "good thing" taking down KF, for all the "good" that it did long-term since it was back a few weeks later. The fact she's also a racist, ableist asshole doesn't mean that Destiny was right to be against her.

Things are rarely as clear-cut as we're trained to believe they are by TV, movies and video games. Sometimes bad people do good things, sometimes inadvertently and sometimes on purpose. And sometimes good people do bad things, whether accidentally or deliberately. And we have to look at situations from a three-dimensional perspective as a result.

Funny how ERA suddenly discover the notion of "nuance" when they get caught supporting a 4chan/KF-tier grifter :lol

I live in a pretty large Republican area of CA. There’s a couple Dutch bros here and the line is always like a mile long. Meanwhile Starbucks is usually almost empty. I always wondered why.

Today my mom wanted to go try it, so we waited in a 20 minute line to get to the window. And around the window and a pole next to it were covered in “let’s go Brandon” stickers and pro trump stickers. Really wanted to just get a refund and leave, but they were already handing us our drinks. Definitely never going back.

I looked around and it seems like higher ups got noticed as republicans and then tried to say they don’t take political stances

We really need to stop propping up streamers, YouTubers, and just people who are terminally online as "heroes" or "champions" of a cause. Shit like that too often lead to situations like this. Is it just human nature to cling on to people? We moved from venerating kings and queens, to venerating politicians, to venerating celebrities, and now to venerating streamers/YouTubers. What's next? Venerating AIs?

Quote
Sadly, I don't think that will happen. Seems we can't help but cling onto others and project our hopes and desires onto them for one reason or another. Seems vtubers are the next big thing to form parasocial relationships with. I fully expect fine tuned AIs to be the next thing we cling to after vtubers.

 :doge

You know Vtubers are just streamers with anime avatars, don’t you?

They really think this is normal, default behavior for people to have just because they do it?  It's like people eating dog shit and saying, "there has to be a better way.  More please!"
They do this constantly, they really think everyone thinks the same as they do. This is why they're so insistent that the chuds/alt-right/fascists/Joanne/etc. are deliberately choosing to be evil, the cruelty is the point.

While an overreaction, is genuinely weird they have propaganda or haven’t removed it. This types of chains genuinely try to be as apolitical as possible, in public obviously. Then again, what makes him think that the local youth isn’t republican to begin with?

Can't wait for when the thread starts questioning all of Keffals and the media's lies from the smear campaign they all blindly supported and never considered the secondary effects of.

Why stop at just the black trans community? Where's your care about the black trans disabled community? Why not follow a bunch of Native Brazilian trans lesbian amputees? They are probably the most disadvantaged community in the world?

Oh, you didn't care enough about them to educate yourself about their plight?

My mom is bipolar, and I recently came to the realization that I might be. I don't know what the triggers are, but I've noticed pretty drastic mood swings this week & I don't know what to do about it.

So, is this kind of stuff genetic? Is it a conditioning thing?

EDIT: I've realized it's probably not a good idea for me to ever have kids, if I do have BPD.

Yes, it is hereditary, this is middle school level stuff.

I live in a pretty large Republican area of CA. There’s a couple Dutch bros here and the line is always like a mile long. Meanwhile Starbucks is usually almost empty. I always wondered why.

Today my mom wanted to go try it, so we waited in a 20 minute line to get to the window. And around the window and a pole next to it were covered in “let’s go Brandon” stickers and pro trump stickers. Really wanted to just get a refund and leave, but they were already handing us our drinks. Definitely never going back.

I looked around and it seems like higher ups got noticed as republicans and then tried to say they don’t take political stances

Dutch Bros. opts for political neutrality, withdraws from pro-carbon ban group
One of the most popular coffee companies in Douglas County found itself in some hot water with customers after the company’s name appeared on a letter supporting House Bill 2020,

Is this a known thing with Dutch Bros now? Was pretty disheartening to see as they had about 99% younger people working there too. Sad to see youth accepting that shit

can’t even handle a little bit of  dutch directness smh

But it went through multiple hosts after their first one kicked them, being shadier, crappier and less reliable and secure everytime, very likely lost a lot of users during these moves, people got more aware of them as well, they did not come out of this unscathed.

The site didn’t go unscathed (and Null, the admin, had a lot of mental breakdowns) but I heard it got a share of new alt righters. And I dunno why “aware of them” is labeled as a point against them given that the community there are not the type of demanding privacy. :lol

Also, given how hard you guys use discord, is kind of risible to think that they cannot organize themselves outside forums. Case point: Keffals and her anti kiwi group before she pissed everyone there.

I imagine the whole reason why Incel made the Keffals thread was because TransRE wanted to made her a persona nongrata after she started to bat for Hogwarts Legacy and shit talk the activists using the dead transexual girl. If she still acted like a bitch but keep the narrative she would probably just be ignored like Brianna Wu or others social justice has-been grifters.

Someday they'll figure out that trying to will untrue things into being by saying them a lot does not in fact work.

The main reason KF was down so often was due to DoS attacks organized on Discord by the little sycophant army Keffals cultivated, the now former sycophants Keffals now pissed off. They still don't like KF, but they probably hate Keffals more.

References to "female" characters have disappeared. Miss Trunchbull in Matilda, once a "most formidable female", is now a "most formidable woman".
Down for this one tho.

What is alliteration tho.

I do feel like this story is a publicity thing, though. The Telegraph mysteriously gets an exhaustive list of all the changes to stoke outrage (and I haven’t seen anyone, left or right, approving of them), they sell more books as people rush to buy the originals, and then whoopsie daisies, we listened to feedback and are abandoning this idea.

I think it's reasonable to assume at this point that some Jack Reacher character from KF in Ireland didn't use his extensive forensic knowledge of hotel bedsheets to cross-reference with a Keffels post, and that she might have staged that doxxing she was complaining about.

It is fucking insane how :pika era are acting over this.

The person who wasn't trying to get a website down via their hosts but via their DDOS protection doesn't have clean hands?
The person who doxxed the mum of the person they had beef with isn't an internet hero?
The person who just made up lies about someone else they had beef with being a rapist isn't trustworthy?

The person who genuinely believes the above isn't morally or ethically grounded?

Likewise the whole reason keffals started a beef with kf was because her fucking psycho behaviour against destiny (who they were already laughing at) made her too obvious not to ignore and document.

They put all this effort to revise the text of a notoriously racist instead of publishing inclusive books that are written by authors that aren't completely shit human beings.

But hey at least they accomplished their goals of *checks notes* making everyone from bleeding heart SJWs to goose-stepping bigots hate Puffin Books.

good job 👍

:dunno

I'm pretty sure there are hundreds if not thousands of "inclusive" books published each year. That not many people actually want to read.
Is that "They"s fault?

Nobody who jumps onto bigoted conspiracy theories and supports vile hatesites that target minorities into suicide are ever redeemed, the truth is that all these people are ghouls.



Oh, my bad, you're not talking about Era.

Can anyone please advise whether this is still a noteworthy person or whether the article is a candidate for deletion like with ResetERA.com's?

Really a shining example of why it's important for voices from the black trans community need to be lifted up and heard, there were probably plenty of people out there saying to pump the brakes a bit that had that important perspective but they were just lost in all the noise. Can anyone recommend some good people to follow in that realm?
