That's a string of Mittani quotes. The Mittani is one of the people directly and specifically implicated in sheltering a pedophile.

Further, that's a string of quotes where The Mittani was attacking sexual abuse victims and repeatedly pinging "actually this is Delta finding a fig leaf for goonfucking rather than about sexual abuse per se." Those quotes came back up during a period of time when a significant number of GSF posters were defending that specific outburst of chauvinism on GF.com and on Reddit.

You need to think this kind of thing through before you find a quote and think to yourself that you've found a silver bullet. It's funny--usually these days it's chuds going all, "no you've taken that out of context!!" but in this unicorn instance, I get to tell you that you've gone and taken a comment about chauvinistic posting on GF.com out of its obvious context and pretended that it was about pedophilia.

Nobody has panned all of GSF as pedos.

Waiting 10 minutes to shut someone's extremely tedious nonsense down is painful.

If mods are upset about bullshit itt creating a ton of reports, I propose to you a source of the trouble: people constantly driving by and transparently trying to rewrite recent history like Lowtax's worst defenders.

Potato Salad posted:

Regardless of whether you agree with me or not, remaining in GSF past this point is a conscious decision. At minimum, it's a demonstration of apathy or willingness to mentally "find the block button" for everything that has come forward. At worst, it's a statement of approval or solidarity with pedophilia or unrestrained religious extremism.

The only way to reconcile these posts is that you don't know what solidarity means.

Also, Groomswarm was directed at Imperium under Mittani and the people who enabled and/or did nothing to admonish his behaviour. A lot of those people are still in leadership roles and to my knowledge no-one has stepped out to say "Mittani's grooming behaviour was not acceptable" so I don't see why it's an unfair nickname for the org. If you, the linemember are upset by your leaderships stance on grooming then I highly recommend taking it up with them or leaving. Not doing either of those things is tacit approval.

"Grooming is bad, people who did/do it are bad and not welcome" <- a PR statement that is free for Imperium leadership to use, if they wish.

Do... you know what "approval or solidarity" is?

And, yeah, it's up to each person to individually determine whether to remain with an institution that has this black mark on its books.

You even quote me on the conscious decision part. You are quoting me on the part that is pointing out that not everybody in GSF is implicated in the pedophilia.

I'm going to cut DARPA's coming bad-faith answer off.

Solidarity is unity and support, period. It's usually used within a group, sometimes across groups with a shared topic of interest.

Solidarity within GSF for those in leadership implicated in sheltering a pedophile would be "unity and support" for those people. In a video game guild and especially an N+1 competitive game, I'll mark down continued alliance membership and in-game tax revenue as "unity and support." Prepare to be laughed out of the room if you want to argue otherwise.

In this way, non-pedophiles can consciously show anything from apathy to solidarity and everything in between. I have regularly and consistently pointed out that this is a sliding scale presently, but as time goes on it will be less plausible to claim apathy.

We can apply this to the topic of the unaddressed transphobic leadership outburst as well as the publicly-apologize, privately-seethe policy regarding chauvinism and sexual harassment. People who haven't screamed "BLM are terrorists!" or "amber heard this wounded bird that" or "I'm a helicopter wololo" can show solidarity for those leaders by providing unity and support in their video game guild, which according to some "institutionalists" is "too important to fail."

Asher is a good egg who called out some of the worst chauvinists voicing their solidarity for The Mittani along these fronts before it was necessarily safe to do so. I'm not overwhelmingly optimistic but he's a good choice.

Thank you for coming to my third grade English class.

I'm tired of writing words, you're tired of reading them, and honestly the best solution for everyone involved would be if the people who want to rewrite recent history could accept that they will not get away with it here, go to the perfectly serviceable forums and services infrastructure on GF.com that they so vehemently insist are under broad and inflammatory attack, and live the rest of their spacelives in peace.

You can go write your own story. Over that-a-way. There's a lot of pilots who signed up because they want to win space wars but might not feel comfortable about everything that happened. Go lie to them. Give them the comfort they desire.
