This internet forum exists because the owner of the previous forum -- a self-proclaimed liberal who openly championed progressive causes and proudly showed off his photo op with Obama whenever he had the chance -- immediately turned it into an alt-right safe space the moment he got accused of sexual harassment and the moderators and community all quit out of protest.

Babble. Just babble. Shit thread, shit posts, shit forum. This made me laugh though:

Yes, yes there is.

I didn't even watch the thing so maybe it's dogshit, but it's funny how many posted "i couldn't empathize with him 'cause i'm black and he's white" comments in there, like it's some kind of medal.

Seriously,Why the fuck she closed the "I got syphilis because I hired a korean prostitute". The guy owned up that he "fetishes" koreans (the horror) and it was a dumb idea.

I'm just astounded that somebody chose to do that, suffered some entirely predictable consequences and one of his first instincts was to jump on an internet forum and let at least 8 anons know. How do these fucking people function? What part of this process is considered stable behavior?

Maybe I am confused here, but why are people mad? Teaching people, especially kids, more about MLK is a good thing.

It seems any thread referencing heterosexual sexual activity gets locked. Usually by morrigan.

At this point they need a clear list of Reee approved conversations that you are and not allowed to have.

The thread had discussion value and was slightly funny.

It's disappointing to say the least and worth mentioning that David is/was a close collaborator and friend of another sexual predator, X-Men Director, Brian Singer.

I just want to clarify that the court case was not about the claims of sexual harassment and abuse, but an order of protection. The court merely ordered that the person who accused him needed to delete and remove all accounts online as it was creating undue duress for Flynn and his family. They did not state Flynn was innocent.

This is not how the presumption of innocence works.

What in the actual fuck at that Korean prostitute thread. He hired a prostitute and fucked her raw because she said she was clean? Yes, makes sense. Clearly that is the type of activity a clean prostitute would participate in.

I can't tell if it is a meme thread or not. Resetera is filled with Johns, so it very likely is real. I remember when some John appeared out of no where to tell me all Johns are good people and I shouldn't judge them. Then he proceeded to tell me about his girlfriend who is a prostitute and who he met using her services

I'm team indoor cats. People do shitty things to wandering cats.

At one time a 4 year old pulled our cat's tail (she apparently did that to her own cat who didn't mind) our cat really fucked her up and even her parents agreed the 4 year old should've known better.
I was like 12 at the time and really worried they would put down the cat for attacking the kid. But here cats have immunity.

Here people do shitty things to people that do shitty things to (wandering) cats.

When the house cat doesn't like you, you are pretty much fucked and won't get invited much 

So, terrorists could train a cat to kill political targets?

Biden is responsible for the way the US left Afghanistan. He is responsible for the chaos, he is responsible for the panicked evacuations in a Taliban controlled country, he is responsible for this situation existing in the first place.

Can this forum EVER stop seeing every single piece of information, every news, every decision and every death through the lens of how it will embolden or weaken Republicans? Could you guys ever stop thinking about optics and how it relates to various american election campaigns? It's such an incredibly ignorant, disgusting part of so many threads in this forum.

You have innocents dying at the hand of the Taliban and the reactions boil down to "Oh no! I hope that doesn't allow Republicans to make Biden look bad." and "Well, it's too bad, but there really was no other way" because if there was any other way that would mean, OH NO, that Republicans could make Biden look bad! The horror!


This whole retreat from Afghanistan couldn't possibly have been handled in a worse way. Trump couldn't have fucked this up any worse. In fact, it's so incredibly amateurish, so chaotic, so utterly disastrous that I would have expected it from Trump. But this is on Biden and his government and their allies.

I think they're trying to say that the US is as much a shithole as a Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

If I had to guess I'd say you're asking posters not to celebrate this as the overall situation is still terrible. I don't think anyone is busting out giant "mission accomplished" signs or saying "all is well, one child is happy". With that said, it seems human and fine to be happy that a child is able to experience joy in the midst of so much turmoil and disruption.

The Overwatch devs have no real power to affect the systemic change needed at the company, especially since- as far as we know- their team wasn't the one involved in any fuckery. Their involvement, thus far, has been that a character in their game is named after a sexual predator named in the lawsuit, and they have acknowledged they will retroactively edit the franchise and rename the character to disavow themselves from what's happening with Blizzard at large. Individual employees have also been in support of the walkouts on social media.

So the question people need to ask is what they want this too-small dev team to do. Kill Bobby? While that would be fucking metal, they're not going to do that.

FACT CHECK:

Literally every publisher and studio in the industry is guilty of misogyny and sexism. There isn't a single one that hasn't had someone come forward against them. Ubisoft, Riot, Insomniac, Microsoft, Naughty Dog, the list goes on and on and on. Big publishers and independent developers both. This is systemic across the entire industry. Banning just one publisher/studio and not all of the others sends a message that we only care about this when it gets particularly bad. It's wholly unacceptable regardless of who does it.

Banning just Acti/Blizz sends the message that it's just them that's the problem. They aren't the only ones. It's everyone. Every game we enjoy is tainted by this, there is no getting around that or minimizing it. This is why we pointed people towards charities to help women because this is a systemic problem. You cannot pretend it's just Acti/Blizz because it isn't. You don't get to write this off as just a single studio or publisher.

I don't this thread and ERA acclerating their ironypoisoning into actual CHUDs

I hate to say touch grass but really doom posting and irony poisoning is just the worst

When you accept continual misery into your hearts + ironypoison it makes actual nihilism seem fucking logical

Jeez. Its sad that I'm not surprised they'd use a racial slur in the game files, considering its a Lovecraft inspired game made by (mostly?) white guys, most of which are libertarians. Not to sound like I'm condoning it. 

WHY DOES THESE WHITE SCUM ARE NOT CANCELLED?

I don't really like the spinning of overwatch as having some small powerless dev team when they're still being bankrolled by the biggest company in videogames and probably have around 100~ employees. 10 employees maybe, 20 employees maybe but not a 100 and not at fucking blizzard.

And you think they really named the character after him innocently when he was a known creep? no doubt it was some hur hur mc cree is such a sick ass ladies man lets make him the cowboy

this is what i would post at reset but dont because lol at arguing with a mod on there

Yikes at all the tarbaby stuff i had no idea it was a racial slur either BUT this wasn't a community thing as it was deff someone at iD that made it, as its in the quakec and the actual name of the .mdl file is tarbaby.mdl ...look

"I had no idea it was a slur but they absolutely did!!"
What kind of logic is that? 

Also after a quick Google search it seems debatable whether it has a racist meaning or not

[Uncle]

devs were such insular nerds back then that my immediate assumption is that it's a reference to linux .tar archive files

like guybrush from monkey island was named that because they didn't know what to call him so his art file was named guy.brush and it stuck

Today that sad wanker with the dog avatar is upset about Reddit allowing different viewpoints -

    While we appreciate the sentiment of those demanding that we ban more communities that challenge consensus views on the pandemic, we continue to believe in the good of our communities and hope that we collectively approach the challenges of the pandemic with empathy, compassion, and a willingness to understand what others are going through, even when their viewpoint on the pandemic is different from yours."

even when their viewpoint on the pandemic is different from yours.

the fuck is this nonsense

  

The whole thread is full of the usual rejects crying about Reddit

People hate the new Saints Row because they are bigots:

Seeing how many people are this out of touch about contemporary fashion trends and what younger generations consider to be cool or stylish is definitely the funniest part about all of this. It never even occurred to me to comment on the main character's designs because to me they just looked like normal people.

Some real strong "old man yells at cloud" energy going on.

When I think about modern gaming and fashion trends I think in RE. That fucking YT dislike bar just appeared from nowhere, those fucking boomers.

[Boredfrom]

Just taking the reboot on its own merits, I do kinda like the attempt to give the characters a more relatable motivation (at least to begin with) than the old gang's desire for money and power. Games are often about power fantasies, so leaning into contemporary youth, primarily American youth, power fantasy of "Don't you just kinda want to burn this whole fucking thing down at this point?" is a solid starting point for rebooting a sandbox crime game for 2022.

It's a solid idea. Hope they land the execution.   

    

This is the same guy as “this is fashion” above.
