Techraptor is a Gamergate site that's supposed to be banned, but the Resetera staff apparently forgot and stopped caring. The last time I reported a thread about this garbage site, I was told it's not a banned site. I then supplied a screenshot of a DM by a now former administrator telling me they'd decided to add TechRaptor to the internal banned source list, and was again told that it's not a banned site.

(Image removed from quote.)

This site being banned was of questionable usefulness anyway, as nothing would be done unless someone submitted a report. With me basically being the only user who knew this site was banned, unless I happened to see and report a violation, links and threads and whatnot would just stay up.

I think a mod once tried to explain why they didn't just filter/censor the phrase "TechRaptor.net". I forget what the reasoning was, but remember it not making much sense, because that's an obvious way to address these things and it had been done for other banned sites in the past. So you know, please do that already.

In 2017, after years of pro-Gamergate coverage, the current Editor in Chief Andrew Otton published an attempted "whoopsie!" that has some examples (and is itself one what with expressing pride in TechRaptor's Gamergate coverage etc.) linked if you want to check out how he and CEO Rutledge Daugette supported and bolstered fabricated bullshit by a misogynist harassment campaign and repeatedly attacked targets of it.

...we shouldn't even for a second consider that performing a violent act so far outside of cultural norms is by definition an indication of mental unwellness?

is this one of those "maybe the Joker is the only sane person, the MOST sane person" takes?

how does that even square with the idea that the GOP is full of loonies, narcissists, sociopaths, people with various mental issues that they trot out constantly?

I don’t believe in God, the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, and liberal families.

All seriousness, I’ve almost always lived in conservative rural red states so in my world every dad is a huge racist and every mom is anti-feminist. I think the trauma has broken me.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/spending-thanksgiving-with-your-conservative-relatives-2022-edition.657187/page-2#post-96999667

Thankfully, my very conservative in-laws have begun to split apart. The loud, extremely religious, and anti-LGTB uncle moved to South Florida. He ended up divorcing his extremely antifeminist, hardcore evangelist wife after she cheated on him - that was a miracle, she was constantly trying to program my son into becoming a Christian.

Those two alone are the reason why I dreaded holidays, but now they are not in the picture.

The only extremely conservative person is my father-in-law who lives with me. And considering he is now bedbound as of a few weeks ago, and I literally have to clean his piss bucket and feed him, I know he probably won’t be talking about politics. he also would not be going to the table. We are going to have to make some food ourselves and then bring him a plate. Which is kind of funny when I think about it, because I used to be the liberal who hid in another room watching marathons and had my wife bring me a plate because I did not want to talk to the other family members.

I'm the only lefty in my family. I'm always surrounded by hardcore Republicans. It's miserable.

Back when I live close to my family, this was exactly me.

Do you ever find that you are the punching bag? Like everyone in the family just needs a liberal to attack and so that ends up being you? I remember at one point looking at my uncle and saying very loudly for everyone else to hear “I am not your liberal”, bastardizing James Baldwin essentially.

I get that you can never debate liberals because you live in a conservative area and everyone is hive mind. But now you can bully the kid you bullied when he was younger even more and feel like you’re doing Trump/Musk/DeSantis/Jones a favor.

That's insane... Heck, that wording (to me) doesn't even seem to stop at trans actors.

Tell me this: "exhibits a gender identity that is different than the performer's gender assigned at birth "by using "clothing, makeup, or other physical markers" and "sings, lip syncs, dances, or otherwise performs" in front of an audience

doesn't ban a theater performance of Mulan, even with 100% cishetero actors playing the characters 100% as written. Any scene with an actor playing a character of a different gender. Hell, even any scene with an actor playing a character PLAYING A CHARACTER of a different gender would seem to go against this (like.. pillar of American cinema White Chicks). I am not a lawyer, but this seems insane even on the face of it.

Are we gonna call SWAT in on the elementary school play where they have to have little Jennifer playing the part of George Washington because they don't have enough actors...

Most tech companies have funding anywhere from $10 million - $20 million. Hive's funding, however, originally came from two college students. In October, Hive secured its first check from an angel investor for its pre-seed round!"



So a secret investor? Why do they need to be secret?

"And other statistics" is so general it opens them up collect anything.

Where is the company registered?

Their business model is charging for extra slots for music:

Hive uses Apple Music API to legally provide music to you to use on your profile page. You will be prompted to log in to your Apple Music account, where you will then select an available song to automatically play when other user(s) visit your profile page. You are able to select a maximum of four songs, with one song each being allocated to one of the four song slots. The first song slot is free. The second song slot is $0.99. The third and fourth song slot is $1.99.

Something about the app just feels a bit odd to me.

Yeah, I dunno -- I totally freakin' dig the chill vibe Hive's going for and there's certainly potential there as a Twitter replacement, but while I understand the need for patience, the sluggish interface/bare features are killing the momentum for me and there's some serious questions to be raised on its long-term viability.

To me it's abundantly clear that the shooter is an unrepentant, violent bigot who will use every opportunity to delegitimize and erase queer people from existence. He is a manifestation of the right-wing project propagated by vicious predators like Matt Walsh and Libs of TikTok to exterminate queer people from society.

I'm sure if they dig into it, they'll find out of if the shooter/lawyer is full of shit or not.

[Pissy F Benny]

I kind of feel bad for the rees here, they need everything to fit nicely into GOOD and EVIL boxes, no grey areas or nuance or taking into account that people do strange things that make no sense sometimes, so if the shooter isn't trolling (I suspect he is) and legit did identify as non binary irl and online before this that will be too much for some of them to process.

Yeah we're gonna see a lot of leftists also tripping over this new piece of info. By no means is the left exempt from treating us like shit. We're often used as tools for political points without actually addressing what the right is doing to us, often falling for the same propaganda tricks that they employ. The discourse is getting extremely ugly now.

Also a reminder, the right have ALWAYS wanted to delegitimize the idea that people don't need to justify their gender identity. They are now explicitly targeting this and concern trolling, using this to control the narrative and will 100% spin this as "see, even [queer people] don't follow their own rules", knowing very well that they're just using this as a stunt for everyone falling for their deflection, and do not even believe their own words. Remember, these people do not think our identities are real, and absolutely do not believe non-binary people should be respected or that they even exist.

Do not engage, it is not in good faith. Do not let fascists control the narrative and drive away focus from the hate crimes.

They are now explicitly targeting this and concern trolling, using this to control the narrative and will 100% spin this as "see, even [queer people] don't follow their own rules", knowing very well that they're just using this as a stunt for everyone falling for their deflection, and do not even believe their own words. Remember, these people do not think our identities are real, and absolutely do not believe non-binary people should be respected or that they even exist.

Do not engage, it is not in good faith. Do not let fascists control the narrative and drive away focus from the hate crimes.

So then the shooter was non-binary, making this a case of the community policing their own, yes?

More like 99.9% of people won't know, care, or understand the non-binary aspect of this story, and will just see this event as another unfortunate mass shooting without the lens of culture war that you're addicted to.

You missed their point. They're trying to tell you that they're scared that unprincipled people who act in bad faith will try to exploit the situation because they would personally attempt to exploit the situation if the details were ones they could exploit in their own favor. The "non-binary" thing muddies the waters about their claim that gender identity is legitimate and that this specific situation is the result of transphobia on Twitter so they need you to stay focused on attacking those they've decided are their enemies rather than falling for other people's bad faith attempts at manipulation of the unthinking rubes like you.

look just because there are a dozen documented cases of murderous people claiming an easily-claimed marginalized status in order to seek sympathy or special treatment, doesn't mean my own claim of that status, which I exclusively wield in order to make others tremble in fear of being banned, is done in similar bad faith

It's funny how "lazy devs" is one of those few golden rules of resetera. Accuse the devs of any bigotry you like but never, ever call them lazy bigots

I have definitely been considering this more and more. I have a wife and kids, I have a home, I have my pets, life isn't perfect but it's mostly comfortable, and it's hard to think about giving it all up, but there have been people throughout history who have gone out on a limb to devote themselves to enacting change, it has to start somewhere. Things are untenable the way they are right now and people keep asking why isn't anyone doing anything, why are there these people in power who get to get away with destroying lives every day, what kind of world are we leaving for our kids while fascists keep ingraining themselves more and more into power structures.

People need to vote though, I don't agree with giving up on that, but it doesn't just come down to voting.

  i wonder what they mean

Oof, sounds like somebody is getting radicalized on Elon Musk's Twitter. This is exactly what the radicals on Twitter warned us would happen.

I'm about done with voting, we can stop fascists from taking power barely but can't actually cause progress. We need to start talking what a revolution in this country will look like.

A revolution to reduce gun violence.

Has the "shotgunned to death" joke played out yet? Because it seems somewhat relevant.

Well, yes Nephente. Colonialism in a nutshell. There is little that can be rescue about the MesoAmerican world preConquest because the colonizers actually destroyed everything they could and buried what it couldn’t…

Oh… you are referring about a attention whore doing something stupid in another country? That is not exclusive of white people.

One difference between ResetERA.com staff members and automated bots is that bots consume resources instead of doing it for free.
