This guy is ignoring the Harm & Damage™ those designs were doing, prior to the government's editorial choices, though.

1.Absolute power abusers hold the red line.
2.They won't tell you where the red line ends.
3.They will punish you if you cross the red line but won't tell you what is exactly wrong.
4. And they can and they will move the red line however they want.
Sounds like the moderation policy for a bonfire at the crossroads of the gaming industry, though.  :thinking

But why would you want to cross that red line, tho?

It seems pretty sus for an artist to create things the government doesn't want them to.  We see you.  And we will report you.

Only difference is there's some historical context for why a Black person would be triggered to lash out.

You white folk looking for a reason to feel aggrieved? Nah.
I can't help but read the same energy as I used to see in 'black people are inherently violent' racists. Sure, you're providing what you feel is a justification for why a black person might lash out, but you're still ultimately absolving them of responsibility due to nebulous historical circumstances that might have fuck all bearing on their decision.

I do think racial understanding is moving forwards, but fuck me some of the steps look regressive.

Stuff like this is probably a huge reason why Ree has so many bans. The thread is clearly just jumping on to the "talk shit, get hit" wagon because it's a black celebrity. Yet a huge chunk of the socially awkward userbase there will probably think the mods actually believe that they think violence is okay if you get called names, and just end up getting banned whenever they bring it up in a future topic. People have no idea what they're even suppose to believe over there because they keep contradicting themselves.

It is very weird to me that royalan has chosen to stake a claim of historical racial context when the easier route to try and excuse all the "talk shit get hit" behavior would be toxic masculinity.

White Glint is perma'd, he said "woke" in a negative context he's done. "Antagonizing and generalizing other members, downplaying issues of misogyny and sexism"

Jobbs is going to be fine he's still got friends in high places. (sidenote, Jobbs is a good ass dude)

There's a huge difference between "showing skin" and sexualized female characters tho. Let's not pretend that the appreciation towards the new designs comes from a controlling mindset ("women showing skin are vulgar") and not from people who actually hate sexualized characters, though I think women should be the judge of that (I'd argue the boob jiggle is even worse)

Of course all of this predates the state censorship discussion, which is undeniably wrong and unjustifiable

Reading the threads on RE it's very hard to not come to that conclusion. Especially when women who say that they like sexy designs are then branded as "part of the problem"

He doesn't even give a real counterpoint, just that people hate sexualized characters

Defend the use of disproportionate violence as a response to perceived disrespect as part of 'your culture', then declare that disproportionate incarceration rates of that specific culture are entirely due to extrinsic 'anti' factors

I think this reading of royalan is a bit uncharitable. He's not saying that this response taken in historical context is part of black culture, but that if you look at his response through the lens of historical context it's not surprising that he lashed out.

I mean, I disagree with this and think royalan is grasping at straws to defend a black celebrity from being seen as "just another violent black man", but let's not be unfair to his wrong argument.

It's fucking weird that they're still arguing about the response when the video shows the guy putting hands on Derulo. I'm all for maintaining composure in public even under harassment, but if someone puts hands on me after verballing harassing me my response would probably be considered disproportionate.

I'm not even entirely sure what Royalan's argument is, and I know he's a reasonable cat. It just makes for weird reading when you look like you're suggesting skin colour has an effect on likelihood to cause violence.

Thread's boring apart from that. I want Derulo to twat a woman next week to see that thread instead.

I mean, if we're being serious, knowing royalan he's probably just a Derulo stan and is trying to come up with some kind of reasoning to paint anyone who thinks this outburst of violence is unnecessary as "problematic". Someone started down the socio-economic rabbit hole on page 1 and this is where we're at, with people unable to back off from a clearly troublesome line of argument.

If you get like 100 million and you give away 70 million, you still have 30 million left. Numbers pulled from my butt but the point is I wouldn't call anyone still getting millions as a hero.

And no I'm not saying he shouldn't keep those millions. Just that labeling a rich person giving off millions as heroic seems a bit much if you still have plenty left.

Role model sure though. More rich people need to understand they really don't need all their millions

I mean, the first thing that popped into my head was: If she is willing to read all the conversations of people on an airplane in the off-chance someone blows the airplane up, why not make the process more efficient and profile groups of people by ethnicity that tend to bomb airplanes - and read their conversations?  This is all for the sake of safety, right?

Constructive thread has some people noting that the Gilray thread is fucking disgusting:
Quote from: Dan L
some of the replies and speculation in the Stewart Gilray thread are beyond reprehensible. Some people here are so quick to assume and jump on the covid shame bullshit. It is not the time or place, and no reason to speculate. plus the armchair gaming chair doctors in the thread are disgusting. Let's not.
Quote from: NinjaScooter
Yeah I know it seems weird with re: to covid but in that thread's case its not remotely relevant that he died of Covid.  Its not like he was some politician or public figure spouting off antivax rhetoric.  He was a private citizen and a games industry figure, which is why that thread exists.  The rampant speculation about his private vaccination status is pointless.
Quote from: Tendo
Yeah i thought that was weird and pretty gross.  Dude wasn't a monster or some anti-vaxer.  A guy dies and people instantly lookin for reasons to say he deserved it.  I stopped following it.  It felt gross.

Who would have thought making it okay to grave-dance on people who are like, real bad, would lead to the grave-dance-happy community constantly pushing the bar for 'real bad' down to the point where they're champing at the bit to make someone dying of COVID their own fault due to moral failings so they can grave-dance?

RIP

was he vaccinated? the article doesn't say
The rip stands for rest in piss if he isn't
Quote
Some of you guys are fucking ridiculous.

The guy passed away , does it matter if he was vaccinated or not? Fucking hell
Uhhh, yes?  To that site it actually matters.  Not vaccinated?  Fuck him for being antivaxxer ree!

Quote
Because if he wasn't could've been an avoidable tragedy.

However, I don't believe in vaccine shaming. Just better education. Vaccines absolutely lower the risk of death and serious infection.

In the antivaxx community, which is huge now in the US, there are arguments that but hey you will get COVID, so what's the point? The point is to not just mitigate the spread (something which Omicron is breaking) but to avoid hospitalization and death.

Also, we don't know his status. But COVID is a once in a 100-year situation. People are going to speculate, talk, discuss

i take my previous comment back it's actually pretty easy to miss lol, because people are editing their posts as they're seeing other users banned and warned for making similar pro-censorship statements

it's not slick at all though.

Wait, what?

lol Why is RE so shit in moderation.

Like you have people in this thread who knew him personally and have lost someone they had a connection with. Extremely tasteless to make statements on his vaccination status as if you know anything

You are just a random forum dweller dont make assumptions about people you dont know

Fucking ghoulish and crass for people here to speculate about his vaccine status. And we all know that was done so they can have an excuse to openly dunk on him. Too many people here in this community are addicted to shitting on people. It's like their favorite drug/past-time. Doing nothing else productive or positive with their time. My opinion on the ERA community grows dimmer by the day.

Just tell us what you really think, you and your gamergaters friends.

Just go for it now, that's the thread for it - there's actual censor ship at play for once!
Tell us how all those evil feminists and people not wanting even more sexualization are the real problem, and if you don't agree with that, you support the CCP.

This entire thread has been nothing but not-even-hidden attacks against anyone that isn't down with the sexualized designs, and a whole bunch of "see told you so I'm not the perv I'm all about freeeeedom".
Quote from: Pai Pai Master
Its really not. In this very thread I expressed that the designs are an improvement with regards to sexualization but that would only be a good thing if it was done by MiHoYo's own volition. No one jumped down my throat and accused me of being pro-CCP or anti-feminist. There is a very clear difference in the two situations. There is nothing positive about state-enforced censorship.

Why are you accusing that poster, who is rightfully pissed about people making pro-censorship statements, of being a gamergater? The fuck does that have to do with anything
 
Quote from: Line
Totally not gamergaters in hiding, not at all. Only a flock of them every page, and I don't know you. But you sure as hell fall into the same mold.
Some people call those designs better and prefer them.
They are less sexualized, that's a fact.

But since it comes from the CCP censorship, it's a bad thing, and if you don't support the pervy designs, you get called names, or you have to come back here to "do your mea culpa".

You're all far too transparent, don't hide behind your fake freedoms. Or don't come complaining about everyone expressing theirs.

I wouldn’t expect anything to be honest. I tried to report someone in this thread for stereotyping and making fun of people with anime avatars only to be told to be more specific.

Agreed. One, of the very many reasons, America is like this is because we are told to respect both sides of an argument or issue. We don't need to hear what white supremacists have to say. It's nothing of value.

i'm torn because i love channel 5 content but i can't support giving this dude attention.

so i guess i'm not going to watch it.
Quote
Well I would say that most of this stuff isn’t even educational since it’s just a platform to keep spreading their propaganda as their crazy views are never challenged
Quote
I also agree the dude does not need a platform, which could be seen as legitimizing him because it allows more nutjobs to latch onto wild and disturbing conspiracies.
Quote
Interviews with these shitheads is just spreading their bullshit to the outside world. Fuck ‘em. Don’t give them a platform.

Maybe it could have some value in, say, 10 years if this dipshit is admitting the illness that is/was Q and is telling a highly regretful, cautionary tale- but not now.

He dressed up as a face painted Viking calling himself a shaman and tried to over throw the US Government.... do we need more?

If the host of Channel 5 was a psychology or psychiatrist writing a paper or doing a study I'd agree with you.

He's not.

He's doing what he has built his brand on "Look at these people acting crazy!"

That is the funny thing, is that the usual clueless assholes from the woke squad are the one pushing that idea the he is not totally lying his ass off because “NFL=SlaveownersBAD”.

The people that follow the sport are the ones mentioning he is lying his ass off.

The guy is using some legitimate issues with NFL and American Football to save face.

I live a block away from a Taco Bell and I'm still not sure it's worth the walk to go pick up a single taco, even if it were free.

Although I am kitty corner, so I'd be looking at crossing two busy streets, twice. Maybe if I were on the same block I'd be up for trying this. Or if it were warmer outside.
