blowfish posted:, I probably said it like 50 pages ago already, but unless you literally make a living off esports (lol) there is no sentence on earth that is more cringeworthy than "I'm a gamer". and thinking about it some more it's totally the core of a toxic thing like gamergate- gamers feel threatened because games are all that they have, and so if someone wants to change them - even slightly - that's scary. the toxic movement and attack on women is bred by deeper dysfunction, it totally makes sense actually. the funniest thing is though, if they "let" women in, it'd be more socially accepted as another half of the drat world grows to be in to something more than they are - and their misery would subside as they could chat up a girl at a bar about a new game just like they could a new movie or something. but it's not about games being accepted, it's about deep self-loathing.

Many of them feel hosed over by the modern situation especially post-recession but their conclusion is poo poo like feminism and immigrants did it because that's what they've been told I guess. Some of them have become total nihilists though. The "black pill" which is "burn down society" instead of altright "the west is best" is a thing

It's a white pride movement made of self-deprecating rituals.

True. It's really hard for me to get either of those impulses I guess having been raised exclusively by women and thus being more socially comfortable with them then men, and also growing up in multicultural britain which, for all the gripes I have with the Blair government, they made drat sure to stuff it down your neck in school that racism is bad. So it's weird to me that people my age would grow up to be either misogynists or committed racists.

That's the thing, like you can make a case that the soviet application of communism and 20th century Marxists did some pretty bad poo poo, but the fundamental ideas at the core of it as well as socialism tries to actually make something better for the world and human being of all stripes and offers actual solutions that benefit people in many many ways, so you can make some sort of case for believing in it and not be a complete piece of poo poo rear end in a top hat. Unlike the ideology behind these YouTube Nazis where the very CORE of it REQUIRES nothing BUT racism, censorship, mysoginy, apartheid, slavery mass murder and ethnic cleansing and mass oppression and death and destruction on a massive scale, like there's literally nothing redeemable about it it's like trying to convince someone that slavery and child murder is bad, I can't come to any conclusion other than these shots are literally human garbage because the core of what they believe is utter poo poo.

I suppose I feel like your counter culture should be based on a desire to reject the lovely parts of the conservative norm, not the actually quite good and not very old parts that the conservatives already reject? I don't think the 60's were "gently caress you mam and dad I'm going to go put on my top hat and pretend to be an 1890's robber baron".

And now liberals have assumed the role of the pearl clutching morality police, so the dynamic is reversed. (Not saying that label is fair, just how it's perceived to be playing out) I mean look at the insistence of Milo that being right-wing is Punk now, it's taking that counter-culture that loved transgression, post-modernism, and irony and turning it into it's own thing. Those were so squarely described as "left-wing" ideas I don't think anyone expected it to be adopted by some right-wing groups.

It really is impossible to discern what portion of the 'chans are genuine nazis from those who are just parroting that poo poo because gently caress you dad, though when that's all you joke about you really are a broke-brained, tragic human anyway.

Groovelord Neato posted:amnesia 2 was an affront to god. yeah. i like walking sims and weird stuff like that, the issue i have is people take the wrong lesson from gone home. gone home was good because it took the enviromental story telling from minervas den and told its story almost exclusivly that way. but instead people just focused on the progressive story/message. which is nice and good, but its not why the story was good, its how it was told. so you get alot of these pretentious jackoffs like the sunset devs and the chinese room who just throw their college 101 course writing at you while making you walk around instead allowing the player to put together the story themselves, but these fuckers are too lazy for that and are afraid if they dont scream their message at you, you will not learn a lesson or some poo poo. its not that the politics are bad, its just they are terrible story tellers.
