Doxxing Files |OT| Do not use a pandemic to make a platform wars thread

[Superstar]

Broadly speaking, this site is no longer a reliable source of actual progressives; it's mostly just woke white libs ripping hair from scalp over every infringement and sin they can find, continually proving right-wingers right about cancel culture while in the same breath claiming it doesn't exist.

oof

How's this dude not banned yet

[remy]

Told ya. Morrigan special. 1-2 days later. After the thread has died. Where no one can see. Over a comment that didn't disrupt the forum in any particular way. Just to punish someone for making them feel bad about the state of their site.

Love resetera.com founded on ~ TRANSPARENCY ~

I don't even get why they do this, the purpose of moderation of forums is to keep discussions flowing smoothly. If someone said something and didn't convey any overt hatespeech, or derail a conversation and disrupt the forum completely with bad behaviour, why do you need to ban them three days later just because they said something you don't like?

why are the two worst offenses offering input on moderation and complaining about astroturfing?

even when morrigan swept that xenoblade 2 thread it was more because someone implied a then protected now banned member with a soft porn avatar was a misogynist flying under the radar (which they were) rather than people saying horrible stuff.

[Snoopycat_]

Why? because they're petty, vindictive narcissists with broken egos and miserable lives. If they were Chinese they'd be concentration camp guards

[benjipwns]

They think that "productive discussion" is when everyone is agreeing with each other and signaling properly.

[railGUN]

I don’t think cancel culture exists and we should stop giving the term credence.

Literally wants to cancel cancel culture omglol

[PogiJones]

Tbf, that's not wanting to cancel cancel culture. It's wanting to cancel "cancel culture." What I want is to cancel cancel culture.

[samir]

The reason why they have such a hard on for cancel culture is that they would never be in a position where they could get unjustly affected by it. It's not like someone is going to get cancelled from stocking shelves at Walmart.

[PogiJones]

After all, sometimes you gotta speak in the movie theater to tell someone to stop speaking during the movie. It is what it is.

Literally wants to cancel cancel culture omglol

Cancel Culture isn’t real. It’s just people being fired for saying or doing stupid things. They aren’t “cancelled”, they are simply fired from their jobs. People have been getting fired for awhile, for all sorts of reasons.

The problem is not people getting fired for saying or doing stupid things. That has always justifably happened and will continue to happen.

The problem is when people use mildly stupid things said by a person and then exaggerate, take things it of context and flat out make stuff up to whip up more outrage and then a virtual lynch mob is formed and regardless of whether the original transgression warrants the person being fired or not, the only way to assuage the bloodlust of the mob is to give them what they want.

Conflating someone like Harvey Weinstein with JK Rowling or even some schmuck who made a few silly rebuttal videos to Feminist Frequency bullshit is just fucking idiotic. Those Feminist Frequency videos were severely flawed anyway and would never have stood up to any sort of academic standards. It doesn't make the guy a Nazi, nor a misogynist either.

[BisMarckie]

Academic standards

[Don Rumata]

People use the term "consequences", as if it had some kind of absolute, virtuous value.
Getting a bad stare and getting stoned to death are both "consequence".
In and out of itself it means nothing, the proportion between crime and appropriate punishment, is where the debate lies.

And the bar for what offense fucks you out of a job, your livelihood, has been lowered by "virtue" of being enforced by internet mobs.
Many times that's been fine and reasonable, sometimes it hasn't (in my opinion), but a mob looking for the next dopamine rush isn't, in general, a great tool for "just" retribution, whatever that means.

[Coax]

There was a good TED talk years ago about this. It has become a form of entertainment for some.

[Uncle]

the other problem is one that in other contexts, era even recognizes: in our current society your job is what keeps you alive, most people are living paycheck to paycheck and one slip means no rent and utilities which means possibly homeless which starts the spiral

and in some threads era will feign empathy for those caught up in the system, those struggling, half the time they don't even know that person's affiliations and are just all hugs and kisses for the way society has failed these people

in other threads they gleefully get people fired and say "oh it's just a job" "they'll find another one" and dismiss the impact of it altogether



decimating someone's reputation/SEO and therefore ruining a life isn't something to be taken lightly just because they made you mad

[Averon]

Funny how those most vehemently denying cancel culture is a thing are some of the first people jumping in and joining the regular cancel culture mob that forms on ERA. Strange how that is 

[Uncle]

sometimes they even follow people through life like brian q cockmangler who once made an othering comment at games done quick 2014, hey let's see if he's seeking gainful employment yet, YES HE LISTS HOME DEPOT AS CURRENT EMPLOYER ON LINKEDIN HEY HOME DEPOT NICE TO KNOW YOU HIRE BIGOTS

[Averon]

Also, I'm sure there are a shit ton of old posts from long-time members before the GAF implosion that, if made public now on ERA, would get them dogpiled and banned. In fact, that is how we discovered how racist B-Dubs is and how one BCT aligned mod lost his modship because he made some "un-PC" comments about bisexuals (or was it asexuals?) years ago and someone dug them up.

kelly tran didn't really receive "targeted harassment" or whatever the kids are calling it these days

a lot of people independently came to the conclusion that they didn't like her role or her acting, and responded the way any reasonable person would respond, there's no conspiracy theory hivemind groupthink here or culture behind it, it just looks that way to the undiscerning eye

[Nintex]

ResetEra is easy to understand, either you are a hero, saint or BFF or you are an evil Nazi for no reason but their emotions and they're never cleaning their room as they smash the door behind them.
There's no telling what group you belong to at any given moment.

Sees like a pattern to me 

I don't even necessarily think it's a matter of most of these people having skeletons in the closet.  It's just that they have issues in their lives and it's a lot easier to say "it's because of person x" or "it's because of y-phobia" rather than put in work for self improvement.  Not surprisingly, a lot of the power posters are also regulars in the mental health thread. 

And it's been pointed out here and other places many times, but if you're in a bad place mentally, then being somewhere that's basically a negative feedback loop with cult-like tendencies isn't going to help any.  They're no different than a drunk who sits at a dive bar all day every day trying to blame the whole world for their problems as they raise the next shot to their lips, while the other barflys incoherently mumble and nod their heads in agreement.

[clothedmacuser]

Bill Burr does what he does entirely to ruffle jimmies from era-esque people.

It's hilarious.

It's because he agrees with them 98% of the time and says their feelings in a more eloquent, sharper, smarter, and likable way.  It's the tiny sliver where he says, "maybe we shouldn't be doing this," that gives them room to make accusations.

Most Era folkx are upset that there are people who get paid to talk about their views and they ask "why not me?"  They don't want to face it's their shitty personality so they blame it on White Patriarchy.  Which totally controls the globalist Rothchild internet. 

"The reason I work in a grocery store at the worst hours must be because they can't accept me!"

It's the rest of the world that is wrong for those types.

i mean 80k aint shit in some parts of the country they need a lil help too.

I'm assuming posts like this one reference places like Seattle, SanFran, NY, etc? Even then, it's hard to believe you'd be struggling for survival with 80k a year.

Though tbh if i was living in a city where earning 80K (for ONE person, no less) a year still made you into a bum, i'd be rethinking my life.
No offense to these cities, but we're not talking about Dubai here, they aren't bringing snow to the desert, it's all inflated bullshit, so being angry about the stimulus cheque is kind of missing the problem.

Can we at least agree that someone calling people who make 80k missing out "1%ers" is pretty bad

Of course.

yeah, c'mon guys.

If the cutoff means 17 million people don't get it but its secured for 280 million, then we can all do the maths.

They're top 10%ers.

Tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooootally different, comrade

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

I mean to be fair, I would say maybe 1 out of 10 in this thread are arguing this is a good decision or are indifferent to it. That's 90% loosely against it on era.

In part of the reason I made this thread is because I participate in and read the poliera thread a lot, and, the consensus in that thread was that this was bullshit, a group of people I consider largely more informed on politics than most others and would also be looking for all the different sides of this, and, they really found none. The group by and large agreed this was bullshit.

Era continues to be so obviously full of privileged and self-important faux-woke puritans always thinking that they are the most oppressed, and saying so as loudly as they can.

I’m not saying 80k/year is a whole lot of money if you are supporting a whole family with it and especially in an expensive city, but it’s damn sure a lot more than so, so many others have to work with in a year, and they are much more likely to be struggling at this time even if living within their means.

Resetera is a community of such garbage people.

yeah, you can see for yourself from the numbers affected that an $80k p/a salary is comfortably inside the top ten percent of earnings in the country, so its pretty fucking rich (  ) trying to spin focussing on the lowest 90% of earners as being 'right wing'

80k is for individual people:

However, the benefit would disappear altogether for individuals earning more than $80,000 annually and couples earning more than $160,000.

[porkbun]

Sorry, I don't give a fuck what the average rent or living expenses is in your city.  If you're making $80K or over per year and you "need" a $1400 handout from the government (less than a week's pay) to get by, that's on you, not Republicans, capitalism, Santa Claus, or whatever boogeyman you invented today.  Learn how to budget money and stop buying shit like $7 lattes at Starbucks every day and getting takeout/delivery for every meal and then moaning how you're broke.

You see Morrigan, this is the opportunity where a mod with any brains or moral fibre would use their power to remove thread-making privileges from the OP and give others a warning about making threads based on Twitter hottakes.

Instead, your first thought is, "protect the ideology, protect the chosen ones". Stupid cunt.

[Don Rumata]

Yeah what i don't get is, if you live in an area where 80k are peanuts, what are 1400$ extra gonna do? The only case i can think of, off the top of my head, is someone who made that much, lost their job in 2020, and moved somewhere else where 1400 could make a difference.
But i dunno if they'd still be considered as making 80k or unemployed.
(also again, it's insane to make 80k a month and be unable to put anything aside, but i admit that's a larger discussion).
