I'd also have to come down on that being a... pretty big flaw to ignore. Like, some opinions are deeply unattractive regardless of the body they are attached to.

It took me a long time to realize that the title of this series is a pun on "freak show" because she's so straight-laced and direct. I'm so used to weary irony and cynical contempt that it's very refreshing to see someone who's simply appalled at our horrible world, as my simmering cynicism prevents me from really acknowledging that truth. It's probably a much healthier response and I wish it were more natural for me. I love Contrapoints, but his "dark mother, cold mother" riffs on her do a disservice to what she's about, although I like him have probably lost the capacity to be shocked without prompting. yeah, he stuff has gotten alot better, but i prefer Lindsey ellis, contrapoints, and liana kerzner. her old stuff under her old co-director and co writer was pretty ehh and once he hosed off she got better and less straight faced preachy. I dont agree with everything she says but she is better.

He has a hard on for violence in video games and movies and every e3 he goes off on a twitter tirade. if its not loving newt from harry potter or steven universe, its toxic and bad. he carries the puritan cultural memes hard from his evangelical days and he veers pretty drat close to jack Thompson territory alot. the best part is most of the other activists in the gaming community, openly mock and laugh at him. the dudes loving toxic. i mean the dude got pissy because they made tracer a lesbian because she is attractive and thats bad because guys would find that attractive potentially and if guys find it attractive its toxic. people called him out on it and he backed off. he also tried to bring down normal boots after they threw jontron rightfully to the curb. he got mad because they must have known his politics and they were all complicit and should shut down their channels too. he starts poo poo and when people call him off he runs away or says he was pretending to outrageous to protect women.

Groovelord Neato posted:the dude LOATHES women. Agreed, but in my experience that outward stuff is less of an indicator of the potential for an abusive relationship than you'd think. To an extent, abusers have to rope people in before it starts, and CRG is doing none of that. I'm not saying I'd doubt it if Laci or another partner said it happened, I just am not jumping the gun on thinking he'd abuse a partner. Dude's a poo poo person all around, but the abusive personality is something totally different than what he's putting out there.

I'm a fat nerd who's never gotten laid and while I'd like to have sex with a woman one day, it somehow hasn't turned me into a misogynist rear end in a top hat. I don't blame women for not dating me! And it just... I just don't get that type of thinking at all. Then again I've had friends tell me they used to get bullied because they played videogames, and I don't get that either. Videogames were one of the few things over which bullies and me wouldn't fight! We both agreed they were great.

MonsieurChoc posted:Only 7 months left for me!  It wasn't the video games that got them bullied. More seriously, incels are people who are obsessed with sex, and who think everyone else gets it because of reasons, like 'they're attractive/a Chad' or 'they have money'. It's basically like children who scream 'I wanna....'; they're making a fuss because they want something, but they're not entitled to it. It's an immature way of thinking, and it's no wonder it segues into treating women poorly, hell, other people poorly. If you feel that entitled, you resent the people that 'stop' you from getting it, or you don't think of them as people at all. On the MRA front, I could see it starting as charitably trying to do the same thing as feminists for men. I mean, if feminists deal with the problems that women face in society, surely it's fine to deal with the problems men face, right? if that were it, we'd never hear about men's rights activism. No, it has to be co-opted by misogynists who don't actually care about men's rights and really want to 'stick it to them feminazis'. The fact that feminist groups often are working for the betterment of both men and women kinda blows that out of the water, too. So instead of MRA's being a group that works with feminist groups on bettering society in ways unique to each gender, we get rallying cries of 'Men's suicide (But we're not going to look into the underlying causes of toxic masculinity because that would be admitting that feminists are right.) and false rape accusations and child support and custody battles.' Meanwhile, you have places like 'Bloke's Advice' which was repeatedly reported for being essentially a male safe space for lovely men to make rape jokes. And you have people defending it because it does good things for some men. The fact that we can't separate the lovely parts of male entitlement is actively harming men across the board. It's like militant atheism.

Jesus Christ what an insufferable prick. Then again, I like watching him try and debate because he often shoots himself in the foot by conceding the point early, but still keeps yammering on, or is just loving terrible at it and doesn't actually know what he's talking about beyond canned talking points you can pull off several right wing sites.

Of course he's fine with the nationalist garbage about restricting immigration, and thinks that Labour is somehow economically illiterate. Also, it's hillarious that he acknowledges the Tory move to utterly skullfuck the internet in the UK, and somehow sees this as something that won't have huge financial impacts. Hint, all the stuff involving encryption also is an e-commerce issue, and destroying the main storefront of the 21st century surely will be great for your economy. Also, Of course, he also makes an attempt to say "STFU on this if you don't have an econ degree" while also being the human fecal bin who mocks anyone involved in social science academics. I can't find anything on what the man does or what his degree is in. My guess is he's just another NEET loser who can't cope with the fact that he's economically disposable.

I also got a good laugh at his "Unless you're an econ PhD, don't comment!" coming from a guy who sees fit to comment on just about every conceivable political arena, from actual economics to party-political stuff; From European politics to commenting on Syrian conspiracy theories.

And it appears that might be the only thing he has going for him income wise, so it could meaningfully silence him. The dudes who just listen don't do anything since he's probably been having issues with direct YouTube monetization. Only the suckers who pay him for the content matter, and again I have to think most people don't like being associated with an actual loser. Even the avatar of Sargon's position (Trump) isn't a loser in the conventional sense. An unemployable high school dropout is in a whole different ballgame to that.
