That one thread here still blows my mind. Took near the whole forum questioning that dude for him to finally crack and run off to fascist safety zones. And he was hyping the game for what… months? Years? And about to run a massive OT

Surreal just watching it all go down

Whole forum or a gang of power tripping bullies? As for "questioning" it looked a lot more like orchestrated harassment to me.

Did he crack and run off to TheBoreHateSiteDotCom? Or was he forced off Resetera by these lunatics and their pet mod?

By "crack" they mean trawling through the guy's Twitter, find one, maybe two tweets mentioning Trump, and using that as the whole basis to declare him a MAGA hat wearing fascist that "tricked" the mods and all of ERA to into supporting a supposed transphobic game? Pretty elaborate planning just to troll ERA. That's conspiracy-level thinking, which you'd think they would reject given how they love to say that they don't fall for conspiracies.

the "tricking" i think is how they tried to drag him with innuendo and insults hoping he would retaliate/"let his true colours show" but he would remain polite (weaponising politeness!) and refuse to take their obvious bait no matter what shit they tried to fling at him  :lol

Oh, yeah. People who just wanted to talk about CP 2077 gotten wise to the blatant baiting and just ignored it, which drove people like Kyuuji and her ilk nuts. Seeing them get so mad at having their bait get ignored was hilarious.

You can still find it on best of trans porn websites lists. They probably got rid of the site when cheeseburger became a slur. The list I looked at is from 2014.

Edit: The website now goes by the name of Transharder.

Trevor was much better than people give him credit for and honestly, it makes me side eye some folks that are aggressively negative towards his run.

As I recall, Jon Stewart wasn’t exactly the most receptive guy behind the scenes to his POC writers and contributors.
Quote
It’s weird for me, I’ve followed him on Twitter for ages and think he’s often hilarious there. But whenever I see clips of his actual show or in commercials I think they’re painfully unfunny.

Good for him. I've honestly never really love him as The Daily Show host but his future is absolutely bright.

I gave him many tries, but he never grew into the role IMO. Wish him the best, but someone new could be good for the show

Trevor's content during the pandemic was my favorite, among late night hosts. He was super relatable in those days, in a way that surpassed Colbert, Seth, etc.

It did smack of a lot of untapped potential, though.
Funny for a site that loves keeping dossiers on people's transgressions, nobody mentions that time Trevor Noah was horribly racist towards Indigenous Australian women...

Art 171 of the Portuguese Penal Code establishes the age of consent as 14, regardless of gender or sexual orientation, but Art 173 forbids sexual relations between adults and adolescents aged 14 to 16 if it can be said the adult took advantage of the adolescent's inexperience, and Art 172 limits it further, forbidding sexual relations with youth aged 16 to 18 by adults entrusted with their education or assistance.

Quote from: Mr Jones
It seems that there are conflicting sources on the internet about the age of consent in Portugal. From what I had read from two of them, that age is 21, which is the age the girlfriend's sister.

the warnings on that thread are some real unhinged shit. I'd never actually read that stuff before. the "evidence" of CDPR being an evil transphobic company is fucking laughable.

By "crack and run off to fascist safety zones" they mean ResetERA.com permabanned him based on a flimsy accusation of Trump support so the staff could save face for having crossed Kyuuji's mob, he returned to NeoGAF.com to tell his side of his story and since Evilore was trying to save face at the time he made a big deal about letting him make the OFFICIAL THREAD there.

I can’t be the only one that does this, right? I’m way more comfortable taking care of business with the faucet on when I know others are around. I don’t even know if this works but I feel like it does so that’s all that matters. Am I the only one that does this, or are you more comfortable going to the bathroom with it turned on as well?

There really is a science to it though. You can’t leave it running for too long or it’s obvious, so you really only get about a 10-20 second time frame to make shit happen. You can also easily be found out because no normal person turns on the faucet, turns it off, then turns it back on again to wash their hands. You really need to get it all done in under a minute for it to work right.

Oh, so they should just erase trans people? Are you saying you don't want trans people to exist? That you personally want to genocide them all like Joanne says she wants to do constantly in all her books? :social

New Tarzan movie?

Seems like it might be hard to "reinvent" Tarzan and not just have it devolve into "white person is so great he single handedly conquers the jungle as a child because he's white and special".

Given the long history of racists associating black people with monkeys, that would be a case of inadvertently hitting a different problematic element.

So Asian Tarzan? Or Latinx Tarzan?

:confused

So basically ban all stories in which a white protagonist overcomes obstacles, because only with the right skin colour you'd be able to solve big problems? I dunno. Sounds just a little racist to me :thinking

I suspect he's kinda riding on the "white savior" critique. Which doesn't really makes sense, since Tarzan doesn't go to another culture. Unless this guy equates jungle animals with minorities :thinking :thinking

(and btw I couldn't care less for the casting in these Disney cash-ins)

:cop User Banned (3 Months): Condescending and Dismissive Commentary around Transphobia over Multiple Posts; Prior Ban for Dismissive Behavior
Quote from: Vermillion
I'm going to direct this to no one in particular: people don't really care that Chappelle is a transphobe or assign him that label.

Also, Harry Potter is still a really popular IP. I think what people are trying to say when they talk about ERA being sheltered is that people don't see the world in the same way.

Chic-Fil-A never took that big of a hit. Joe Manchin's views are pretty in-line with an average voter. Ultimately, when you ask the question "why are people still inviting this bad person," it can come off as sheltered because the masses haven't gotten around to deciding "this is a bad person" in the first place.

And I'm sure many of y'all know that & are only expressing disappointment. But for those who aren't aware -- the situation is simply that the world is different offline (and no, CNN covering a thing doesn't make it a popular opinion).

Quote from:  mrbogus
The continued "surprise" appearances of Chappelle are obvious tells that the performers know about his controversies. Grohl knew what he was doing and hid Dave until it was too late for the paying audience to find out.
Does the audience usually boo or express annoyance when Chappelle appears?

But Smokeymicpot escapes justice.

It amazes me you genuinely think no one realises this when it's literally part and parcel of of how Rowling has been so successful in pushing people against trans people. Nigh on every thread has someone expressing this enlightened take like the fact that trans concerns are something a severe minority of people are concerned with is some shocker, as opposed to the obvious element that allows for the rise in transphobia we've seen the past few years. I am so severely tired of cis people feeling the need to come out and tell us how little people actually give a shit as though it's news.

Like how condescending do you need to be?

Man fuck off, you ain’t illuminating shit with this patronizing dreck.

Yes I know people don’t care about trans folks, I don’t need you to spell it out because I live it everyday, that people don’t care to listen to us.

I’m looking at one right now, person whose only post in this thread is devoted to talking down to trans people.
Quote
Trans people having lives outside of Era? No that couldn't be, they wouldn't SURVIVE outside of Era's super supportive community! They can't possibly be other places, in life or online. They need us!

Yeh the sideways implication that we only exist online and don't understand or have experience of the real world – in particular how it reacts to transphobia and trans people – is really shitty when you spend longer than a second on it.

The other little side of taking credit for a supportive community that they themselves aren't even actually a part of. The positive community we do have on this site is definitely not thanks to the whole of its membership that largely stays clear from trans topics until something hits home for themselves.

I'm amused by complaints that "a whole generation has grown up with microtransactions as the norm!!!" when they wouldn't have had to if our generation was actually capable of taking a stand for literally any-fucking-thing. Y'all were fine with Horse Armor, outrageous pre-order bundles, paid online, and paid DLC, oblivious to the fact that these were just breadcrumbs to the trap and poo-pooing anyone (like me back in the day) who said this would lead to stupid shit because capitalists are vultures and will take all they can get if you let them. But #Gamers will literally buy anything no matter how predatory the deal is and no matter how much actual human suffering went into the production of that thing. That's what happens when your hobby is inherently predicated on mindless consumerism.

Frankly I was prepared to actually pay more for skins at this point because I know Blizzard would get away with it. And I was really only saving my dollars for Lucio stuff, and frankly I'm gonna be breaking Battle Passes down like that (which is stupid; I shouldn't be having to sit down with pen and paper to figure out the cheapest way to get the shit I want but here we fucking are). In this awful world where every individual piece of content has a dollar attached to it, really my only big problem is still the fact that Heroes are tied to the Pass. It fundamentally goes against some basic gameplay principles and thus crosses the line. Hope they renege on that but I doubt it.

Poor nepnep forced at gunpoint to pay out the ass for shitty skins of her video game crush because of capital G Gamers

The fucking audacity to blame others while she herself announces how she'll buy skins and battle passes. (But only the Lucios ones, that's why she's allowed to)

Also how often has Nepenthe said shit like "If only gamers were as mad about racism as they are about microtransaction". What the fuck does she even want?

You know how I basically just was not interested in purchasing Microsoft and Sony consoles for myself because I inherently believed it was absurd that I had to fucking pay for online when I was so used to just free servers? You know how much mileage I got out of Mario Kart 8's online on Wii U just because the shit was free (and also because fire hopping was fun), and how absolutely gutted I was when Switch was gonna be paid? You know how confused I was when cosmestic DLC started popping up when frankly switching colors had always been the purview of the left/right buttons or a goddamned cheat code?

I have been holding out on spending unnecessary money on this stupid hobby for as long as I can but everyone else around me insists on paying for developers to carve up content and features that were once free and drag me into this capitalist nightmare.

For the record, Switch online is $20 a year.  To clarify:  Her capitalist nightmare is 1 dollar and 60 cents a month to play kids' games online.  That Versa is never getting paid off.
