People far and wide had their first encounter with the trans community, and they are coming away thinking that community is full of hyperbolic, bullying assholes.

This is bait and I'm not going to take it.

 

I'm fucking stunned that the dream game for a shit load of normies sold like hotcakes.

Who ever could have guessed that the first Harry Potter video game that isn't a phone game, Lego game, or Kinect/Move game, would take advantage of pent up demand for a decades old and wildly popular franchise.

The game could have been complete shit and it would still have sold 10s of millions of copies by the end.

You know, there’s also some painful lessons here for the average Era user as well, they’d do well to take a look int  the mirror and ask some of those questions to themselves.

There’s also a lesson here to stop throwing around words like “genocide” and “nazi” as go look up what those words actually mean in our history and you’ll soon see you aren’t facing a genocide over your situation or someone who disagrees with your views isn’t a nazi, then maybe we can start to improve our lot in life when you stop fighting some imaginary wars.

YES.

They're not screwing around with this.

And this should again put to rest the idea that the Netflix series isn't canon. They wouldn't bring back so many actors if it weren't, as that would actually be more confusing to casual audiences.

One of the funniest things about the entire ordeal with Hogwarts Legacy is that it's got tokenized inclusion up the ass; but for it's association with Fuhrer #1 Rowling, the game is pretty much tailor-made to appeal to all the distinguished mentally-challenged fellows that think Reesetera is an actual games forum and not a hate site.

Remember all those people who accidentally mentioned Hogwarts Legacy and were subsequently banned on ERA? Each one of those mentions equates to 100,000 sales. They're lucky they were only banned.

Let's be honest:  It doesn't matter how many different words they use in the ban message.  Everyone on Resetera gets banned for the same one thing.  They might as well just use one ban message for every ban.

You're right, but I still find it hilarious that they don't have 0, 1, or even 2, but rather like 8 different catch-alls they've cooked up. They had to make absolutely certain that they can ban anyone and everyone whenever they want for whatever they want.

All this discussion of inclusion in Hogwarts just goes to show that most people's vision of the Harry Potter universe is the film versions. The books don't really give you a sense of diversity or non-diversity outside of a few characters. The school population is left up to the imagination of the reader.

I would love for any of them to explain why bans for racism, sexism, and transphobia aren't instant perma bans, but "trolling" as a junior member is. You'd think they would take excising bigots and quasi-Nazis from the community more seriously. But I guess people like Nep are fine with anti-black yts just getting a 2-4 week timeout only to return to ERA with their anti-black ideology. No wonder groups have been driven from ERA in droves

Whether it is improving physical chemistry in the bedroom. Helping close the orgasm gap, learning new techniques, better communication, etc.

I'm a huge fan of work by sex therapists, both written, on video, or by consultation. They are really good and, I think, underused.

Unfortunately, there's a stigma about talking about bedroom matters.

But there's a lot of bad lovemaking out there, a lot informed by straight cishet male focused porn (not shaming here), but it makes for bad lovemaking habits.

Not to mention the rise in STDs of late, which may come irresponsible intimate encounters, but a lot of is also stigmatized and lack of education--US sex education is horrendous.

Hopefully, this is allowed, if not, lock it up!

how does this guy even find time to have sex when he's posting inane threads on Ree all day?

https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/publications/trans-adults-united-states/

Over 1.6 million adults (ages 18 and older) and youth (ages 13 to 17) identify as transgender in the United States, or 0.6% of those ages 13 and older.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1269778/gender-identity-worldwide-country/

In a global survey conducted in 2021, two percent of respondents from 27 countries identified themselves as transgender, non-binary/non-conforming/gender-fluid, or in another way. In Germany and Sweden, around three percent of the respondents stated to identify themselves with one of the listed genders.

Hit with their classic "trolling" ban reason. It is code word for "said something that triggered me to my very core". 

What's the worst of the many catch-all ban excuse phrases they have? Some contenders:

Trolling
Dismissing concerns
Rhetoric
Inflammatory
Sensitive thread

My vote goes to dismissing concerns.

I’m a fan of dismissing concerns because it’s a big reason why that place is like it is. It makes ratcheting down the rhetoric not just difficult but outright bannable.

“They’re literally trying to murder me!”
“No they’re not. Calm down and seek help.”

DISMISSING CONCERNS

Dismissing concerns is the absolute best because it is quite literally "banned for having a different opinion" and the cunts can't see that.

B-Dubs Thanks for the pinned post re: wizard game in the gaming forum. Just for clarification, you mention there will be no OT and no discussion of the game, but is reference to it in terms of like, sales reports and Steam charts ok if it's just mentioning its title? I just recently mentioned in the XGS OT how, on Steam, a game "The Day Before" is ranked #2 only behind the wizard game. Should I edit out the name or is mentioning it only in passing as part of figures/ranking acceptable? There's no discussion happening regarding the game itself. Thanks.

In passing, in terms of sales, should be ok. But no threads about how it's #1 or whatever.

That said, we reserve the right to change our minds on this at a later date.

They basically okay'd 'passing' mentions in sales threads, but didn't expand on what that was and left themselves an out for changing their minds later.

Taking a lawnmower to a sales thread as their way of setting limits I guess shouldn't be surprising.

[Uncle]

Dismissing concerns is the absolute best because it is quite literally "banned for having a different opinion" and the cunts can't see that.

sometimes I genuinely want to consider this, and wonder whether there is a valid argument to ban for dismissing concerns

like in a particular extreme case where someone is actually hurting and distressed, everyone on the forum knows them well enough to be confident they're not playing things up for pity points, and it'd be both cruel and dishonest to try to convince them they're wrong, maybe?

but then you'd ban for the cruelty/antagonism, not the act of dismissal itself

I guess it's one of those "I know it when I see it" things, and era is never it

The Jewish and Black diasporas in America, having made it through all 10 stages of genocide, should really take a back seat here and let the new kids have their turn in the spotlight. THATS what intersectionality is all about.

I hope “we’re on stage 8 of 10 of genocide” becomes like the doomsday clock of LGBT+ activism, just constantly claiming they’re on the precipice of mass murder for decades, occasionally moving up to 9 or down to 7.

[BIONIC]

I understand all the concerns mentioned here, but I will say that TikTok has also been incredibly effective with uniting the working class on hot button social issues. Along with Twitter, I see this move as just a way to stamp out social movements that threaten the current systems of power.

If TikTok is banned, and people go to Instagram or whatever, it won't be the same experience, and it'll be way more curated and controlled.

They don't know how to make any other play. Playing the victim has been their entire approach to success, so when it stops working, they think they just gotta play it harder and push up the victimization spectrum to genocide. And it's not working, and genocide is the end of the victimization spectrum, so they're just trying to scream it louder and louder. They have no other play.

Wait how are we one stage 8?

“Persecution – Victims are identified because of their ethnicity or religion [or sexual identity] and death lists are drawn up. People are sometimes segregated into ghettos, deported or starved and property is often expropriated. Genocidal massacres begin.”

I didn't get annoyed until I noticed that the chart is from the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust unrelated this issue.  I should really learn the rules when it's bad to call something the Holocaust and when it's accepted.

Wait how are we one stage 8?

“Persecution – Victims are identified because of their ethnicity or religion [or sexual identity] and death lists are drawn up. People are sometimes segregated into ghettos, deported or starved and property is often expropriated. Genocidal massacres begin.”

There are death lists? There are trans ghettos? There are trans pogroms?

No wonder you were banned for being transphobic, smh

Genocide is a process that develops in ten stages that are predictable but not inexorable. At each stage, preventive measures can stop it. The process is not linear. Stages occur simultaneously. Each stage is itself a process. Their logic is similar to a nested Russian matryoshka doll. Classification is at the center. Without it the processes around it could not occur. As societies develop more and more genocidal processes, they get nearer to genocide.  But all stages continue to operate throughout the process.

I like that stage 5 and stage 7 are the exact same thing. Someone needed to meet their word count for a middle school essay.

Since its founding, the United States has systematically oppressed both Native American and Black American minority populations. While over the last century the U.S. has adopted and codified numerous civil rights laws, covert policies still undermine these minorities, rendering both groups as underrepresented and second-class members of American society. As growing hate develops in the US, Asian Americans, Latinx People, Jews, and Muslims also suffer from discrimination and violent attacks for being themselves.

If the process is not linear and the stages can happen simultaneously why is Stage 8 any more or less indicative of the process of genocide than any other stage? All the stages are just as alarming. It would be more appropriate to say “we’ve accumulated 8 stages of genocide!”

Locking for review. Will probably ban some people. Probably won't reopen.

Still open.

The jingoistic/racist point is that whatever takes it's place not be Chinese not that nothing else can take its' place.

If it was an Australian app that was doing the same shit there'd likely be no political outcry about it

 

I would prefer literally any other country than US, they don't need a bigger social media monopoly

China and Russia?

and I mean clearly we're also in the final stage, right, lots of people are denying that a genocide is actively happening

Trans people are tired of all of this performative nonsense.

"Some people are just always upset!"

I'm not legally allowed to live and be in public in Tennessee and soon to be Arkansas and multiple other states.

The US house of representatives have a bill in committee right now that would outlaw trans athletes on a national level. The entire platform of the Republican party is too "eradicate transgenderism" according to them at their own conventions!


Absolutely **** off. **** ALL the way off... Concern trolling that we aren't bowing and scraping at the feet of a man who is aligned with the people who want us eradicated (their words, not mine).

**** off with this centrist bullshit. The time for finding allies in the Republican party is long over.

The amount of people that think this is still a game, that we are still about cheering one side or the other and should be happy about someone doing less than the bare minimum (yes, saying you are against hate is *less* than the minimum you centrist high horse riding ****s!)

I don't know why I'm wasting my time digging up backup codes to this account... You won't learn shit, you'll continue to think this fence sitting "tuttutting" is making a difference...


Our blood will be on every single one of your hands. You'll pretend to care when it's over just like you pretend to care now... But none of you will lose a second of sleep while we lose every single right one by one until we literally have nothing left but to be herded up and disposed of.
