Blaire White is far too stupid to participate meaningfully in a discussion of identity. She literally doesn't understand anything Nick says and has no historical knowledge at all. "Trans is the new black." Indeed.

I didn't catch most of that stream. I happened to tune in for a second when she was comparing a person "coming to terms" as being trans the same way a cancer patient comes to terms with death. Ummmm. I kind of muted the stream after that to do other things then forgot about it. I'm all for discourse but some people just can't be talked to.

Blaire White is what would happen if JohnTron decided to 100% go political. She's a complete loving moron who forms knee jerk opinions and never changes them while fighting to the death for them. Much like JT as soon as that person has to talk with someone with even a shallow understanding of the topic beyond 'I HEARD ABOUT THIS JUST NOW HERE'S MY REACTION' they resort to just flailing and claiming somehow they're being attacked by being asked 'what the gently caress are you even saying'

Falstaff posted:What was this? I haven't heard about it. Here is a decent write-up about what happened in 2014 with Laci Green. It should be noted that at the time, they both worked for Discovery Digital Networks. Some time passes and then DeFranco uses Laci Green's picture for a video about "drama queens," basically using it as a means of portraying a straw feminist for his bullshit-rear end South Park morality reporting. Laci Green asked him to not do that and it lead to months of her getting harangued on Twitter. https://twitter.com/gogreen18/status/783107858921496576 DeFranco regularly retweets things inflammatory things and then shrugs helplessly whenever his followers go after his targets. He also has a lot of real lovely videos about the SJWs and BLM, or how it was actually racist for MTV to target white people when they had the Dear White Guys video. He acts as if he's a presenter of news but he's just a milquetoast rabble-rouser.

Tired Moritz posted:didn't laci and phil did a collab before? must be awkward now Yeah which is why she was so put off by his sudden public attack. It's been three years and he's still harboring a grudge at her for being upset at YouTube. An issue that he decided to insert himself into and then made himself the aggrieved party when she dared to question him.

Unless you're actually trans or black, you really shouldn't be calling people that. I mean, Blaire has a different opinion, so fuckin' what?

From skimming it Shoe seemed a decent moderator, if slightly biased towards Blaire. And Blaire is a woman, she transitioned from a male body. (I think I am phrasing this correctly right?)

Thanks. I have never heard of Blaire and only watched 15 mins of it but with the way she kept on saying she was biologically male I wondered if she identified as male.

She's a widely popular political spokesperson and is through her rhetoric championing de-humanizing LGBT people and turning back the clock on minority rights. She's right up there with Milo.

I subscribed to DeFranco's videos for a brief while about a year ago, but I stopped following him when I noticed he seems to get really excited about calling out reverse racism, even if he doesn't call it out by that name. I wasn't familiar with this, though, so thanks for the info. It's frustrating, I have a couple of good friends who are completely taken in by his "sincere, empathetic presenter of the news" schtick and watch him almost religiously.

Zedd posted:I know, that's part of what I don't like about her myself, but I tried to stay objective in describing her. It's a situation where you essentially can't while also remaining accurate. This is the same pit trap that most large publications are falling into with regard to the surge in actual pro-fascist groups: Dick Spencer and Milo get called "provocateurs" and "controversial political spokesmen" because their actual rhetoric/beliefs seem so inherently biasing that people opt to not mention it at all for fear of being perceived as poisoning the well.

This is like a dozen discussions ago, but it really is a shame that the Duke Nukem Forever that got released was a hodgepodge of the game as it existed as a contemporary shooter. Doom 4 got a lot of mileage out of metatextually being about Doom as a concept; a DNF that had been built from the ground up as being Duke 15 years later could have worked really well as a retelling of Demolition Man. I said earlier that the problem with DNF is that it likes Duke too sincerely, but I don't think that's the real core of the problem. Because a nostalgia trip that's genuinely affectionate could have worked, Doom 4 is proof enough of that. Duke not being a punchline is not an unsalvageable take on the character. The problem with Duke as a character in DNF is that he starts on top of the world, stays on top of the world, doesn't change one iota, and is never the butt of the joke. It could have worked if the whole thing was a joke about how antiquated Duke is, or how awful he is as a person, like something along the lines of Archer; or it could have worked if they'd played the character sincerely but made him fight his way back from irrelevance. Show everybody why Duke is the king, don't just keep asserting that he is. But DNF spends its entire runtime basking in unwarranted smugness, and it makes Duke completely unlikeable.

People writing the game had tried things along those lines but were shot down by 3D Realms. Cause in a wierd way of looping back around to internet critics Yahtzee was brought in to make a test script and was told his script wouldn't work because he didn't play Duke 100% straight.
