Fans posted:This whole thing feels like a group of people with no real issues trying desperately to find a reason to be oppressed. Yeah. Doesn't matter whether you're nominally left or right, you can always get sympathy points by acting like you're the oppressed underdog and not some middle class loser kid who has failed at life through some combination of insufficient mental health care and just being a loving idiot. you can't get me i'm behind 7

Was he harmed in any way other than being criticized on the internet and maybe over the phone? I respond to being criticized by carefully considering the feedback and, if appropriate, taking responsibility and formulating a realistic plan for correcting the issue as I move forward. How did he respond?

Gamergate is still so goddamned weird to me. For sake of argument, even if we agree that it ostensibly has something to do with "ethics in journalism", what the gently caress does that have to do with Anita Sarkeesian? She just posts critiques about social and cultural themes in video games. What does she have to with...really, anything?

1. IFM is a troll account. 2. The Chinese Room is/are fine. Machine for Pigs' problems are more easily traced to their partner game devs having an asset flow problem-something that keeps happening to them. Dear Esther and Korsakovia were and are very innovative.

rkajdi posted:Yup, it's the whole "de-FOOing" (Family of Origin) thing he preaches in between complaining about how women are too nice to assholes and how taxes are theft. The cult comparison is pretty well earned at this point, but if you have that "rational and neutral POV", him pushing this position is just a sane as a transgender person disconnecting from their family because they don't accept their gender identity. This is literally the argument that was given, because your political persuasion should obviously be protected and above basic scrutiny.

Terrible Opinions posted:Are we talking about Stephen Molyneux here? Cause I didn't think that the standard crazy libertarian was hated women nearly as much as Molyneux clearly does. Honestly, in my experience crazy libertarians are crazy about everything-- crank magnetism if you will. I haven't met one who wasn't at least a bit resentful at women for coming to flock to their obviously awesome rational mind, which leads pretty commonly to the red pill style insanity.

I watched about 2 minutes of it because I haven't seen anything of hers since way way way before she redpilled or w/e the gently caress. She starts out the video saying everyone's going to be mad by her at the end of it, no matter what they believe, so I decided to save her the trouble. She seemed to be going down a quasi biotruths path keeping just this side of "women's brains are smaller than men's brains" so I just put on a caravan palace video instead and was much happier with my decision.

Of course, I think it be perfectly fair to say the most popular Libertarian in American history is Ayn Rand. Say what you want about her (because it's all justified) but she was actually pro-choice from what I know. I don't think most Libertarians have any ideology beyond "smoke weed don't pay taxes woooo." As such, I doubt many are misogynistic. I've certainly seen a lot of evidence of rampant racism in the movement but if I were to meet a random Libertarian, would I immediately think they hate women? Nah. Maybe I'm too nice. Molyneux really shouldn't be equated to a normal Libertarian. He has way too much power and influence and advocates social conservatism, like Hoppe. They're both special brands of evil and crazy.

The funny thing is, if GG actually WAS about "ethics in games journalism", a lot of us would most likely be totally on board. There IS corruption in the industry (as with any other) involving poo poo like collusion, pay-to-play, and all that other fun stuff. But as with every other aspect of culture and society, the Left and Right are in totally separate universes when it comes to what they define as "corruption". For the Left, it's the aforementioned issues. For the Right, its' some random blogger/youtuber that says that hey, maybe we should allow female characters in games to wear something beyond a battle bikini.

The thumbnail is like her previous "Taking the red pill?" title in that it's clearly pandering to the anti-fems for views, which is disappointing. The video itself is just a bunch of waffling of no real consequence. "Some people think this, some other people think this, let me know what you think in the comments!" Kinda boring. I've been wanting to make a video about Laci & have been waiting for her to do anything other than talk in circles about how everyone is mean to her now, but I've been waiting a while.

ungulateman posted:The implication is that the evil SJW has gotten old and unloved (she even has a cat), while the entirely rational man has instead formed an emotional dependency on a body pillow. It's all part of the idea that you're better for rejecting womanhood entirely. That there is pride to be found in having a sexless existence and that woman will just use sex to control you anyway. Don't feel bad about being lonely, feel happy because you have escaped the vile whims of the feminazi collective who aim to control your with their reproductive organs. This also played into why Milo was so popular. Not because being gay was suddenly considered okay in the community, but because he represented someone who was beyond the need of having to please women, a truly independent individual who could speak his mind about 'what we all are thinking'. Can you tell that this idea originated from 4chan?
