i feel like mods skew younger because of the youthful zeal of wanting to participate and change the system, especially in a political oriented chat forum, as well as the greybeard veteran goons both have a weighter badposting history as well as understand the futility of trying to herd goons not to be terrible

You do have a point that the D&D mods have tended to be the youngest group.

my interests are niche enough that i can keep a small backlog, it's more that i'm just not watching much tv these days and hardly any movies

due to the flood of Peak Content i think some folks specialize a bit so they can stay informed about trends and developments in a certain sector of media distraction. like, i'm a video game guy, a friend of mine is a book guy (i have no idea how but he reads like ten books a week) another friend of mine is a music guy, i have a friend who focuses on international period dramas, things like that - so when folks find something really exceptional they can recommend it and generally get positive feedback on it rather than everyone sort of fumbling along in there just being a hundred thousand "pretty good" shows, films, albums, books, games, etc.

i just end up rotating my interests every couple of months. like sometimes i'm into guitar stuff, then the next month maybe it's car stuff, then pc stuff.

not anymore. they've reopened qcs but with an overly complicated 'ticketing' system, which they're sort of making up as they go along and which i'm guessing will fall apart in the next couple of days.

Actually, you tell racist people they are racist what happens is that they almost always double down. They work TWICE as hard at campaigning, spreading their lies and their bullshit. And if you wrongly accused someone of being a racist, they'll tend to resent you just to piss you off if anything else. And that bullshit then reaches out to more ignorant people, makes them more afraid - and that's when insane things, such as the Leave campaign actually winning (I never even remotely thought it would, because of how utterly retarded that would be), become possible in a democracy.

Like, Jesus H. Christ. I cannot believe you far-left petunias still haven't figured this poo poo out. The more you scream this at them, the more they will double-down on their idiocy and not consider your points of view. Another example of this is the whole Gamergate fiasco, where pretty much every major gaming news outlet published simultaneously articles of how 'gamers are done' and how sexist they were all being. Did that stop them? gently caress no! They went berserk and their idiocy and ignorance spun out of control, to the point where both sides are making everything toxic online about this issue.

To stop this the only thing I can think of is an education system reworked from the ground up, as in how it is done, what the criteria for success are, ect. And I'm not talking about higher education either, that one actually works relatively well against ignorance - moreso the basic school system. Alternatively, I guess you can keep screaming 'racism' on the internet or in people's faces or have special 'sensitivity workshops', that will only tackle the root cause to insanity such as this piecemeal.

yikes!
