Motto posted:The fact that the victim has been asking for anyone to speak to them daily for well over a year now while the people directly involved got constant praise from their peers probably didn't help the response to someome finally chiming in with "well, things are very hard" while still not directly acknowledging the actual person. the logic on 'why its hard' sucks too. for starters, she called the article 'mostly factual,' when the article itself has been criticized by some of the victims as basically characterizing them as asking for it. for instance, one person is characterized as 'flirted with boss, he got handsy in ways she didn't want him to' when her story is 'i did no flirting and he molested me.' so no, gita is not being 'misinterpreted by disingenuous racist twitter posters,' she just sucks.

The article while trash still superficially found only one party guilty. It makes it easy to not look into how it lovely framed everyone else. That being said people online need to get their poo poo together and realize the consequences of their actions.

I do see that but forgive me if the others in the class when the implicit if unintentional "They were right in calling you horny for your abuser" kind overshadows that. Or the shitstorm that followed.

WaW just had a lot of fun weapons, Juggernaut MP40 was a real rear end in a top hat combo, but the Type-100 was fun and the Ppsh with the drum of course ruled, blowing limbs off people with the PTRS, the shotguns actually having some range and tearing people up, the Garand and the M1 Carbine were fun, pretty much all the MGs were rad, vehicles on some of the maps were fun to spice things up, the killstreaks were overall cool, honestly I'd sooner play WaW again than MW2/3 which had a bunch of poo poo I just remember hating, whether glitches like the javelin suicide bomb or boring guns being the best by far.

Impermanent posted::me, being principled: i think that the two black people in the same industry as this white lady should have sacrificed their careers to fix this also, im saying austin walker can just not tweet 'i support lawhead' and then days later rush to kiss the kotaku editor who oversaw this stuff's rear end when he leaves kotaku. he can just not get involved. i dont think suggesting 'maybe dont stick your nose into this poo poo if you arent prepared to do anything' is demanding people sacrifice their careers. getting involved without any resolve to do anything just makes it way worse. and im not blaming them for not sticking their necks out over something that happened at a site they dont work at anymore/never did, im blaming them for riling up the hornets nest and playing both sides when they didn't have to. that isnt a hard thing not to do!

FFoE being German probably inoculates him to those kind Greatest Generation depictions of WW2 so the World at War approach is much more palatable.

Terrible Opinions posted:His vids are almost always just how he feels about something and why, which really helps in not feeling overly authoritative. Yeah that's true. He comes off as a very chill and humble guy and not one of those "if you disagree well gently caress you you're wrong" types And I do want to say I actually do agree with him a lot on World at War. The portrayal of the Japanese in that game is quite problematic. In fact, a lot of bad creative decisions Treyarch would make later in their CoDs can be traced to WoW. Like in Black Ops the portrayal of the Vietnamese is downright racist. To the point where they don't even speak Vietnamese, they literally go "ching chong bong!"  So yeah I do like WaW but it's a problematic fav for sure. ( I mean all the CoDs are problematic in some way or another but you know what I mean)

Don't get me wrong, he's still the greatest gaming critic of all time but his word isnt law Guess i'll wait until the an ps3/ps2 version of world at war but the excerpts I've seen definitely proved the chesse part. Edit: Actually i say we would probably completely agree on Waw. I actually meant what i said about the russia part as a complement to it. I love chesse. Also IMHO he kind of has a point on bloodlines. Even it's fans like me find it very buggy and very cringe sections. He's only very wrong on whether or not some things are worth and/or charming, not the bad parts per se.

If you liked Quinton's videos on Ancient Aliens and other weird/fake poo poo on the History channel, you'll probably like this video from Billiam about the same type of poo poo on Animal Planet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPjQ2-Xrau8 Nerdwriter1 talks about our relationship with time during the pandemic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cztCmNSVS3Q Farm Frenzy posted:yeah it just doesnt sound like she looked deeply into it at all, to me, considering the phrasing of the tweet. i know she says dumb poo poo all the time but i don't think shes stupid enough to actually side with the reddit mod I'm also willing to give Natalie a little bit of the benefit of the doubt here because the two most prominent articles about this Reddit admin from before the drama blew up on Reddit itself were both disgustingly transphobic, with the one directly instigating the drama "calling out" UK political parties for accepting trans women as women and the other one being written by Graham Linehan himself and full of all kinds of Helldump/Kiwi Farms poo poo on top of the legit concerns about the admin's pedo-apologia. Obviously the admin being fired was the correct course of action here, but if all I knew about this admin was that she was a trans woman being attacked by Graham Linehan I'd probably side with her out of knee-jerk reaction.
