They invaded Kuwait and Saudi Arabia would've been next, you don't fuck around with the worlds oil supply like that.

Still you have to wonder if it was their own idea.

When you say "they/their" are you referring to one person or many people. I are confused.

"Antagonizing" ban incoming:

Detestable company that used the success of The Witcher 3 to attract a years-long blind and unwavering adoration from fans while beginning to court the alt right and ardent Gamer crowd. Then used that combination to act maliciously toward trans people and ultimately fuck over their fans by openly lying to them until the money was in their hands. All while grinding their employees to the bone in a toxic work environment.

They are the epitome of corporate greed and malfeasance regardless of whatever image they attempt to cultivate.

I am sorry, correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC you've bought and played the game right? Cyberpunk, I mean.

I don't understand the dichotomy of saying stuff like this while at the same time supporting the company through buying and/or playing their game anyways?

I mean, even if she has, you can and should still be critical of the things you consume.

I just don't understand saying a company is reprehensible while continuing to buy and play and consume the thing produced by said company. I mean maybe for something like basic necessities like clothes or phones I can understand, but this is just a video game that can be easily skipped.

Sorry, didn't mean to make this thread about her. I am just.... somewhat perplexed by it.

Someone offered me a key for the game so I could see the extent of transphobic elements, coming off the back of the thread I made last year.

Aside from randomly trying to call me out, was there something you actually disagreed with in what I said about them?

"And played through the game a couple of times just to be sure"

[Rahxephon91]

God that person is really quite annoying.

CDPR was not a detestable company. They were and still are one of the most pro-consumer companies. In an industry of loot boxes and games losing any creative dignity, they still tried to be above that. "USed the success of the witcher 3"? What does this bullshit even mean? They did not manipulate anyone, they made 3 games of quality and supported them generously. They did not court that alt right crowd. Did some people that happen to be alt right cling to their games? Yes because they were good and were unwavering in a sea of a very divisive culture. Where did they ever act maliciously towards trans people? Stupid little problematic jokes? That's it. That's not attacking trans people.  That's making small elements of a huge picture that will no doubt age poorly as culture moves on.

Cyberpunk was a bit of a disaster, but these people are so idiotic with their pretentious hate that masquerades as activism. They are the other side of the coin that has the alt right shit heads that's really made the gaming community one of the most obnoxious things. The best thing about getting older for me, is being to busy and honestly too above it all to spend as much time as I did on this crap.

Like I said, I am just rather perplexed that someone who voiced such a strong criticism towards a company to the point of calling them utterly reprehensible, at the same time playing and enjoying the game by said company, seemingly hyped by it, and even so much so that IIRC you tried to unlock it earlier? Well, I guess I can accept what Omnipotent said above as an explanation, understandable enough.

Hard to take in good faith when I haven't spoken about it since the actual release itself and wrote at length about it at the time. So what's actually perplexing is how you're able to recall it at this point a year on, but none of the number of posts around why I made at the time. Instead wanting to appear clueless to poke at some imagined gotcha you had because I was conflicted in playing a game that I had once been excited for but had come to represent numerous things harmful to me, and for which I was offered a means of playing to see if there was any legitimacy in other areas of the game featuring trans people.

I just remembered seeing you quite active in the OT of the game, and as such when I saw your post earlier this thread I just found it rather bizarre, that is all. It is by no means me trying to get a gotcha involving you.

Well, I guess I can't make you believe me even if I tried so, okay.

Anyways, sure, if that is your explanation, then okay, I won't talk about it again nor will I ever invoke this again in the future.

That's literally what your post was. I posted a post critical of CDPR and you randomly threw out a response not to address the post itself, but to be like "but didn't you buy their game a year ago?". If you have any doubts as to whether I actually care about transphobia, whether I dislike CDPR or why trans people might feel conflicted in playing games that have transphobic elements feel free to PM me. It would be easier than trying to snipe me in unrelated threads.

Three replies. Zero responses to the question of why Kyuuji needed to play the game to "see if there was any legitimacy."

With Kyrie playing every game and the team staying healthy, we pretty much were handing them the championship. For non-NBA fans, just think of the Brooklyn Nets as the MCU Avengers in terms of relative power.

Without him they are a very good team that will have to work harder to win it all, but with Kevin Durant (best player on the planet) and James Harden (top 3 point guard on the planet) winning the chip is very much on the table.

The Warriors with Kevin Durant were Thanos with the full Infinity Gauntlet.

Dear Care and Feeding,

My son, “Jack,” 14, has been maintaining a spreadsheet that tracks all of his classmate’s problematic actions. Jack has always had difficulty fitting in, but he is a compassionate and intelligent boy. We do not allow our children to have their own computers to prevent the risk of them being radicalized by alt-right websites, so our kids share a laptop that we monitor and control access to. We found an excel spreadsheet in Jack’s folder that listed the names of all of his classmates, as well as dates and descriptions of their problematic behavior. Some of the descriptions I saw include “has a mom who is a cop,” “no pronouns in insta bio,” “laughed at a fat joke,” “lists problematic show as one of their favorites,” “mimicked a foreign accent,” and “used cis-normative language.”

While I am pleased to see Jack taking an interest in his peers, I get a weird feeling about his spreadsheet. As much as I don’t condone the behaviors mentioned, it seems a bit creepy for him to be monitoring his classmates. I also wonder what he is trying to do with the document. Another concern is that we are white and some of the kids on the list are Black. Given the long history of white people policing Black existence, I question whether Jack is the right person to be taking on this task and whether it would be more appropriate coming from a BIPOC person.

We have asked Jack about the spreadsheet and he denies involvement, but we know that it couldn’t be anyone else. Am I right to be concerned about Jack’s list? I don’t know that it is the best way for him to engage with his peers and promote social justice. On the other hand, I am proud of how committed he is to this cause and I don’t want to stop him from bearing witness to injustices within his own community.

Dear Problematic or Productive, tell your kid that keeping a spreadsheet of the transgressions of others is 'white male as fuck' and then watch the bottom drop out of their silly little world.

Also, you failed to stop your child being radicalised by the internet. In fact, it happened on your direct watch. Maybe reflect upon how your biases have blinded you to problematic ideologies that you agree with.

With pleasure,
SmokyDave.

Astro’s identity is that he is a pussy

[nobody of note]

I would really appreciate if Era could put its minds together and come up with what we're supposed to use for gender-neutral pronouns at this point, since single-person 'they' is no longer gender-neutral and is now its own thing.

I'm not looking to antagonize people, but also in most of the cases where I use a pronoun I'm just trying to avoid saying a name over and over I don't actually give a shit about the gender component, so give me new words to use for "I respect your identity but do not care enough about you as an individual to commit it to my memory so here's the generic for-everyone bucket"
