tbh stormfront is largely pretty unfunny but occasionally it just dives headfirst into "andy kaufman is alive" territory

quote:

I do let my daughter play video games, but I do research on the games before I let her play them. She seems to like Kirby's Epic Yarn for the Wii, and that Mario Kart game. But I don't think it would be healthy for lets say a teenage to adult male to be interested in either of those games.

Some of these Japanese games appear sorta queer. They usually portray males as feminine, and they seem to have a fascination with sexualizing children.

We went into gamestop a couple weeks ago to see what games they had and my daughter grabs this game on the shelf:

Hyperdimension Neptunia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I told her "were not getting that". This is an example for the sorta "queer" games I'm talking about. The strange part is there is fag degenerate cult following of adult males who actually play those sorts of games. I think they're called weeaboos. They're freakish degenerates in every sense of the word. And this is "Japanese" culture they're importing to our youth. I wish they would keep this sorta trash to themselves honestly. Any sorta game you see that has NIS on the label is degenerate weeaboo garbage. People need to start getting involved with what their kids are into and make sure they don't adopt a degenerate subculture. If I had a son who showed interest in such a thing, then I'd have a long discussion about "Its time to learn how to be a man". And that is what a father is supposed to do.

quote:

I have that game, actually, the three games.

And i can tell you that this games are VERY FAR of be degenerate trash. The characters majority are girls and there is a few male characters, but there is nothing about queers, lesbian, homosexuality or pedofile situations.

Is obvious that the creators of that franchise only thinked in japanese audience when development the game and if NIS brought to West that games, is because in west there is much public that love anime, japanese games and Asia culture. Not necessary that be anti-white.

Hyperdimension Neptunia is just a drop in the ocean. Japanese has own point of view about the world and i am 100% sure that their society or hobbies are NOT influenced for jews. TRUST ME.

Japapnese never do any kind of propaganda like pro-inmigration, mix-race, abortion, adoption of no-own race and others jews craps.

I love my race, i love be white and i like white culture. But unfortunatly, west games are corrupted of jew propaganda and only japanese games, in my viewpoint are free.

e: i swear to god i'm not kidding

That depends on your definition of amazing. If by amazing you mean truly innovative, genre-altering music, then no, because everything in the top 40 you haven't heard before has been almost certainly done by someone else who never made it to the charts. Also music effectively ended in 1952 because you're never going to hear anything more antithetical to the entire concept of music than 4'33".

If by amazing you mean you enjoy listening to it because it sounds good, then there's totally lots of amazing music out there! This also means there's amazing music on every chart because it's a subjective measurement that doesn't define anything except your own personal taste and culture.

The thing about Snowpiercer is, all the silliness is 100% deliberate and honestly gives the movie most of its charm. It's really not too far removed from The Fifth Element, just with Korean quirkiness replacing the French quirkiness.

Recently there was a complete database outage for like a couple of days, and now the same company is taking the forums down for maintenance tonight. I wouldn't mention it but both A) offering new avatar sizes after a decade and B) a half of not touching avatars while putting a particularly ugly avatar on new accounts. Is the forums out of money? Aside from jrod, there aren't exactly a ton of new accounts popping up.

To move this conversation away from stupid slapfighting, are tone arguments invariably a bad thing, or do they have a time and place? I obviously think that being nice to people who are saying stuff like "kill all niggers" or "push the Arab menace to the sea" is stupid, but if someone's genuinely just being ignorant and not malicious (i.e. a "fiscal conservative, social liberal" type who isn't aware of how that's kind of an oxymoron), is there no value to trying to convert them to the right side?

On the point of why the question was apparently repeatedly was asked, look, quick note on The Rest Of The World. Lots of the words that you think are racist or insulting in America simply have no connotation other than a direct meaning. I've never met anyone in Southeast Asia who knows or uses the American slur gook, and I'd bet all the money in my pocket that even in Vietnam, unless the person learned it from international media, they would have no idea about the American slur. In other shocking developments, the Vietnam War is called The American War there. I know gook means something in Korea, which is where it came from in the US form, and why it got used in the next war I suppose. I could walk around yelling GOOK GOOK GOOK all day and people would just think I was a nutter, they wouldn't be offended. Oriental is another word with no negative connotation, though it does have the same general meaning. Not remotely insulting or condescending or racist in any part of Asia I've been to, use it all you want! In fact, it's self-applied to all kinds of Asian owned businesses and organizations. Still has a bit of cachet here. Maybe that's different up around China or Korea, but I seriously doubt it.

I didn't realize that was actually what they were called, I honest to god just thought you were being casually racist out of nowhere. :ughh:

Isn't there a bit in this where Milius* starts talking about what his plans for Conan the Destroyer were before the studio gave it to a different director, Arnold makes some comment about how it's a shame the movie never got a sequel, and it comes out that Arnold had entirely forgotten being in Conan the Destroyer?

*By some reports, an enormous goon in person, and definitely part of the inspiration for Walter from The Big Lebowski.

To be fair, I think everyone else forgot that movie too.

Further evidence:

  • /r/holocaust is a holocaust denial subreddit.
  • /r/womenofcolor is a porn subreddit.
  • /r/ferguson is run by white nationalists.

Feel free to add to the list!

To be possibly more fair than Reddit deserves, /r/holocaust and /r/ferguson are lovely because of an organized and actually fairly small group that abuses systems in place to take over subreddits where people might not be nice to them, and turn them into white nationalist shitholes. The Reddit admins have tried to throw them out a few times and failed.

Do you have any more info on this? How hard could it possibly be to turn over these subreddits to people who are not white nationalist shitheads?

I'm phoneposting and this is stuff I read a fairly long while ago, so I don't have too much more to say about it, but basically, Reddit lets anyone create subreddits, which is why there's about 8 shitzillion of them. With /r/ferguson, the /r/niggers group just snapped it up before anyone else could. With /r/holocaust however, it's a little more sinister- they're waiting for subs to go inactive (or "inactive" according to a specific set of guidelines) and using parachute accounts to take them over and rework them into /r/niggers-affiliated subs. Funnily enough, they do get shadowbanned and their subreddits taken down somewhat often, but it's never for racism, it's always for abusing poo poo like this.

e: As far as how they could stop it, they can transfer mod powers on the subreddits to someone else, but that person could end up just being nefarious themselves. In practice their only powers are to shadowban people and ban subreddits, and in the former case they just make parachute accounts because they don't have to pay :10bux: to join.
