Where do these people get the energy to be this mad all the time about literally nothing?

Seriously. It has to be exhausting being mad at everything.

Look at these idiots exercising their right to protest at the place where the people who make decisions work, instead of just looting their own local neighbourhood businesses like the real protesters do

Are you seriously comparing politics to queer rights?

Bro, are you seriously comparing two protected classes under employment law (only one of which I choose to recognise), bro?

Christenson, who has lived with Smith for seven years, said Smith often criticized the Black Lives Matter movement, the COVID-19 mask requirement, crime in the neighborhood and homeless people living near the park by their apartment.

Christenson said Smith’s attitude toward police had recently changed as people in Portland and cities across the country took to the streets to protest the murder of George Floyd, a Black man who died in May 2020 after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for more than nine minutes.

“He has been getting more and more radicalized as the years went by,” Christenson said. “He went from ‘FU police’ to ‘Blue Lives Matter’ in the last year.”

So I saw the movie tonight with my brother who's in his 40's and never played a video game before. He asked me a few times if it's based off a video game and I said yes.

There's a particular moment in the movie where the original theme kicks in and I dont know why, but I kicked into tears. I really love this franchise. It means sooo much to me and was the reason I bought my first PlayStation.

Does anyone else want to see it back?

 

Listen, being an old dude I know I grew up with some toxic masculinity bullshit, but for fucks sake how fucking soft do you have to be to cry when the Uncharted theme song kicks in during a shitty videogame movie??

Forcing small business owners to do things that go against their genuinely held religious beliefs is not something that should be legal, encouraged, nor celebrated. Personally I don't mind extending it beyond religion either, but this seems to be what people key in on.

I do on-site repairs and way too many customers won't stop talking about how "Trump won" or "it's a bioweapon" etc. It's their entire personality and I want to just leave but Resetera posters think I should be able to be sued over that because my rights matter less than a customer's.

Are you seriously comparing politics to queer rights?

User Banned (Permanent): Condoning bigotry, account in junior phase

I'm saying your rights end at the point where they infringe on other's rights, whether that makes you unhappy and inconvenienced or not.

Seems pretty obvious to me that artists should be compelled to produce whatever a customer wishes. Black artists should be forced to produce white power slogans if that's what a white supremacist wants. A Muslim artist should be forced to depict Muhammed if that's what an atheist wants. Women game developers should be forced to produce boob physics if that's what capital-G Gamers desire. If they don't want to speak the message the customer is interested in then they can simply quit being an artist for hire.

What a strange argument. Okay, let's switch the genders around, the very same people would suddenly be upset that he called her a cunt.

I actually agree that coming three hours late is cunty behavior, and Theron justifiably called him a cunt but it doesn't make such sense to reduce this to gender

Yeh I know it's a joke threrad, but it's still probably going to turn into another weird Era judgy thread where people shit on others for larks.

Right...

I know a few people IRL who many on Era would shit all over if they saw their style, but they're all lovely and successful people. One of them is more talented, kind, and successful than the vast majority of people I have ever met who would judge her in that way.

Wonder why he’s so heated…

Bonus:

At least he does not look like a generic british people that can be both racist and lgbtphobic if that means changing 1% the way they live.

No you don’t get it, cunt is a derogatory term for women.  By calling Tom Hardy a cunt, Theron has misgendered him.  I bet if we dig around enough we can find evidence, that tenuous at best and entirely out of context at worst, to paint her as a transicidal maniac.

so what I'm reading is that either the story will suck due to hyper-sensitivity in avoiding anything problematic, or the game will be normal and the director and writer will end up cancelled from their own communities for making a tone deaf game with evil races or uncritical support for capitalist systems or something

What is all the more hilarious to me is that Schreier whines about not quoting sources. When has this guy ever quoted sources? Any time he leaks something or takes a dive into developer studios it's all from anonymous people. I'm sure all the devs who think his articles are unfair would love to know.

I'm not concerned about him protecting sources who probably don't want to be on record criticising current or former employers, but I am concerned about his lack of effort in trying to balance his stories out by seeking other perspectives.

He's another one of these shit journalists who think that their role is to be an activist instead of a neutral reporter of news.

Are you seriously comparing what black people should be compelled to do with their labor vs what white people should be compelled to do with their labor?   Labor trolling gets you banned here.

Earlier I made the mistake of suggesting that Black bodies should be used as labor by white people. After being confronted with an intervention by my white colleagues I now understand the mistake I made in not being aware that it is white supremacy to expect Black bodies to be capable of performing labor or creating art. I also now understand that this is doubly offensive to assume that Black bodies exist to produce things that white people can enjoy. As such, I have rededicated myself to helping all Black people by making a commitment to ending capitalism and colonialism globally. Thank you for your understanding and awareness on this important issue.

It was the capitalist and colonialist powers that stripped Russia of her rightful territories in the first place for daring to peacefully challenge their global terrorism by showing a better and democratic way of life.

The so-called "Ukraine" situation is similar to the island of Formosa where the people wish to peacefully reunite with China but the capitalist powers refuse to allow democracy to happen.
