:cop User Banned (Duration Pending Review): Hostility; Long History of the Same
Quote from: The Adder
Quote from: Kaseoki
There are at least two British Chinese who voiced their displeasure and you're still digging.

"When you don't have minorities to lean on" ?!? Wtf. Get the fuck out. Please don't use us as your points for arguments.
Quote from: Aurora
Between two imperialist countries making jokes about each other, I'd rather the immigrant third party not be the subject of these jokes to be honest with you. We are not your pawns to use in internet arguments, we are real people.
Y'all wanna talk about making it a bannable iffense to talk about anyone's food then? Because I guarantee you that, by this reasoning, if you've opened your lips to say word fucking 1 about any American food that isn't something processed, you have either insulted generations of immigrants, or you've attacked food that my people created out of necessity being made to survive off the scraps the people who put us in chains didn't want or preparing food in the house that they did.

Do you want to go there? Or can we just keep making jokes about each other's food without turning it into some rightwous cause?

Quote from: Plum
No, it's being toxic and snobbish in both instances. But I don't have the same cultural and historical context and knowledge that I do for my own country's food so calling out people is harder on other fronts. Though you and others doing the whole "IT'S FINE TO BE TOXIC" thing completely ignored all context I, and others, have given... so I guess that knowledge doesn't matter much, unfortunately.

That and, frankly, the prerequisite for calling out others being toxic shouldn't be "you should call out literally all other toxicity under the sun."
The prerequisite for not being a hypocrite is sometimes complaining about the same issue when it's applied to someone other than yourself. You don't need "cultural and historical context" to know that processed cheese product is poor people food, which you've so vehemently railed against making fun of (and which most people on your side of the argument think is a valid target).

I don't have a problem with folks taking a shot at chittlins. I don't think it's toxic. But I do have a problem with folks getting self-righteous about it any time it's about something on your side of the Atlantic.

I always love it when one of the righteous ones breaks. They don't know that the only way for RE is to get more and more extreme.
You want to be able to have some lighthearted ribbing about another countries cuisine? Go somewhere else you Nazi!

I love seeing longtime users realize when they are no longer on the top of the totem pole. I especially love it when they run to Twitter or someplace else and rant how the community was always shitty. Like, every complaint they'd dismissed as being from "chuds" not too long ago, they'd repeat verbatim and say it's all true. Almost as if everyone there knows how shitty the community is ran/how biased the moderation is but stays silent to keep up appearances/keep their account.

The thumbnail wasn't meant to primarily invoke thoughts of anti-semitism. I actually didn't follow the Charlottesville story, so I honestly hadn't heard the "Jews will not replace us" chant. All I saw were some torch-wielding fratboys and thought, "White people doing stupid shit again, huh? What else is new?" So when it came time to make the thumbnail, I wanted something that could represent concepts like "white supremacy" and "racial purity." The Charlottesville torch bros served that purpose quite well.

As previously stated, I knew exactly how the video was going to be received several months before the script was even written. The thumbnail was meant to act as a mirror, held up to all the people on the internet who responded with the same level of tact and grace as a tiki torch-wielding frat bro. As you can imagine, they were too stupid to know they were looking at their own reflection.

The tweet was the original title of the video, the format we use every time we post a link to our content on Twitter. The title was changed because I realized a lot of people wouldn't understand the significance of "Final Solution." In this case, Square Enix's "Final Solution" referred to their decision to eliminate people of color from FFXVI so as to not be accused of creating racist stereotypes. In the process, they inadvertently committed digital genocide.

Is there a generic non-binary they/them word equivalent to dude/man/fellas? If not, someone should invent one and get rich. I mean a real one, not something with an X in it.
Cunt is quite non-gender specific in most parts of the world...

"Hey cunts, how's it going?"

"I feel ya, cunt."

"Good one, cunt."

"See you cunts later."

For everyone still in denial: Twitter is being reshaped into a tool to push and normalize fascist propaganda. And to use a highly appropriate aphorism, "birds of a feather flock together".

Sticking around gives implicit permission stating that you find what's happening acceptable. Just like what happened with this exact same community.

"But I personally get -so much- value! Why should -I- have to make sacrifices just because my presence validates and incentivizes the fascist take-over!". Just a different form of Fuck You, Got Mine.

It's no wonder fascist movements have slid right on in throughout history. People will accommodate them every single step of the way, right off the cliff even when they say they are against it. When it comes time to shit or get off the pot, most people are way too happy to just keep on sitting until their guts explode and shit seeps through their whole body. So long as they feel like they at least get a little -something- out of the arrangement, they'll let that shit fester until "whoopsie!". Then turn around and act like they had no role in what happened at all.

Amazing how it went from "Maybe stop making excuses and stop using Twitter" to "I was accused of trans genocide."

And no one can challenge Kyuuji on that because anything she asserts is right and correct and disagreeing with her about anything makes YOU the transphobe.

Twitter is currently baffled that people not constantly on Twitter in their tiny social circles exist, lots of tweets like this:
https://twitter.com/davidbix/status/1655779003276443648

Apparently all these clips are like five years old or something and Twitter's discovered it because TikTok did:

What the hell are they even getting upset about? The user they originally quoted says their gender is male on their profile.

I suppose Tygre may have changed their gender on their profile afterwards, but that does sort of highlight how pointless it is.

This is why Twitter needed to be seized by the state permanently so as to be placed in the hands of the people rather than given to a single monopoly power that didn't have to listen to anyone else.

To date my only exposure to Tucker Carlson is that clip where he, some balding guy, and John Stewart have a debate or something. Stewart makes fun of his bow tie. A professor in college decided to show it as like proto “lib destroys conservative” content. Guy was weird. He yelled at me for saying Bangkok Dangerous is a good movie. It was a different time.

there's a lot of good shit still on twitter. i hate what its become and who owns its. but like its still a great source for sports content, funny memes (all the people yelling about how they'll never use twitter are still sharing all good doctor memes that originated there.).

like i get he sucks and is aplifying bad people. but theres a lot of good still there and until theres a real replacement i'll be there. and when that replacement is real and i'll hightail it out
Yes, you're not willing to make any sacrifices, you just need to see those banger tweets. But accept that people will criticize that choice.

Shareholders may not be the only thing wrong with this country, but they’re a damn big one.

…anyway, this doesn’t surprise me, I haven’t gotten any raises (including cost of living increase) in five years. Gotta make sure the line goes up!

You guys also bitch about private companies, like all the time…

And you are probably not gonna like state owned companies depending of the political climate.

he is clearly well off, which I'm surprised nobody has mentioned and complained about yet since having money is literally genocide on Ree.

Yeah, he’s fucked.

sounds like he knows absolutely nothing

what makes it impossible to just start learning game development and prototyping while still having a job...?

do it in afternoons...if your afternoons are too busy, set aside a weekend...if you can't do that either, take a week vacation and pretend like you quit your job, attack it with the same gusto

hell do it while at work on company time until they find out and fire you

but this cat probably had plenty of time when not working, since if a significant other/kids required them to be a breadwinner they wouldn't have quit the job (...right?)

I try to look at who it affects.

I'll never buy another JK Rowling book if she ever wrote one. It's just her singular artistic expression.

I will watch Potter movies and play the games because, to me, it's the artistic expression of many people. Like, when I bought the game, I donated the same amount of money to a charity.

Bands I have a hard time separating. I don't listen to Brand New anymore even though I love their shit. Now if what happened in Brand New was an act by the drummer, and they fired him and moved on, I'd continue to listen. But Brand New is Jesse and it's his words and music so, yeah, I had to tap out.

Women who are claiming sexual harassment are pieces of shit?

They reported it and it went on deaf ears. It's clearly this recent ruling that gives them the courage now to go public about their experiences with the ex-president.
Quote
Not the ones that were harassed. I’m talking about the quoted people that literally watched him harass others and didn’t do anything about it.

People in charge have a duty to do more than just watch sexual harassment happen and just try make sure the person doesn’t get raped. Trying to offload it on meadows and wash their hands of it is ridiculous.
