Solice Kirsk posted:Can someone explain that to me? Are they saying he isn't criticized because he has a bunch of friends? Possibly. Given the tales of his behavior at cons and how rude he was to LMM he's probably been swimming in a cloud of invincibility for a decade+ now and getting away with it scot free. It's weird, because the examples posted here are examples of bad female characters. That's nothing bad, Asimov is famous for bland poorly written female characters its just part of the whole package. But since Rothfuss is a ~feminist~ his female characters and depictions of sex must be uber good and beyond critique so anyone trying to break it down and comment is just written off as "not getting it".

Oh! It's the woman that did the slightly better Red Letter Media takedown of The Hobbit trilogy thing. I only watched the first part of that and thought it was super boring, but lots of people like her reviews and stuff so if she decides to take this on she may be OK.

I don't like how Red Letter Media handled the Max Landis thing one bit, but you gotta realize dude, that's the least examply example ever. "THEY WENT FULL CHUD!" "Okay, got examples?" "No, but I'll vaguely say they were mad about something."

I missed their reaction to Landis so I can't comment there, but perhaps it would have been more fair to say 'they recently espoused opinions that are particularly attractive to a specific set of bad actors that we should probably all avoid even appearing to appeal to.'

I thought that the problem with Red Letter Media was the metastasizing edgelord tumor in the Plinkett reviews, which went from vaguely threatening implications about his family in the Star Trek videos to a constant stream of "jokes" about his pedophilia in the 15 minutes of the Crystal Skull video that I made it through.Dreqqus posted:I missed their reaction to Landis so I can't comment there, but perhaps it would have been more fair to say 'they recently espoused opinions that are particularly attractive to a specific set of bad actors that we should probably all avoid even appearing to appeal to.'

When people ask for examples they want quotes, and not "I'm going to vaguely say that they said some things that bad people might like, but like, I don't have any examples", you know. And you missing their reaction to Landis was my point. They just started pretending they never heard of him and memory holed everything they had to do with him despite doing a lot to boost him before it came out that he was a rapist.

red letter media, you're under arrest for not being 100% woke my read on the stuff you're vaguely referring to is that they performed the sin of critiquing a specific strain of White Feminism where white women choose to speak for women of color without much apparent input from women of color, but were kludgy about it because they haven't marinated in the language of The Discourse, on top of critiquing White Feminism being only a thing considered appropriate when it is done by women of color and to be fair, should a bunch of 30+ white men sit around critiquing White Feminism? very probably not, but that makes them 'clumsy' rather than 'torchbearers for the alt right'. you're fine not liking them, i barely watch their product myself, but don't misrepresent things in vague terms to spook people onto your side EDIT: (and for further fairness, their "she should have worded what she was saying better" stuff was also pretty sloppy and not good and 100% in line with the "well why don't you be more respectful with your protest" nonsense, but again greater context makes me take that as clumsiness rather than intentional goalpost moving to ensure they're always correct)

Patware posted:red letter media, you're under arrest for not being 100% woke "Wording it better" is kind of like the excuse of "well it's only because you messed up and confused me" and putting the blame on her for people getting pseudo outraged that a women said something. I like explain it the chuds I know by pointing out there actually isn't anything wrong with it, and if someone is a hypocrite you can just say that and not attack feminist ideas or make it a gender thing. White feminism being a thing doesnt even need to be "white men cant talk about it" the whole advantaged white females banding together to solve/address society's problems is as old as America. In the 1900s it was them insisting on Prohibition, in the 1800s it was them deciding how the Native tribes needed to "civilized" and in the 1700s....I don't know but probably something about patronizing treatment of slavery.

You know I'll admit I probably need to watch the video again and reassess my reading of it. I'll cop to being in a place where I was particularly fed up with that strain of bullshit when I watched it the first time and may have seen something that wasn't really there. At the time it came across as a critique of feminism/diversity in general and if that's not the case I'll be happy to be wrong.
