BillyBlanks posted:They post videos of themselves irl all the time. Do you even watch these channels that you constantly complain about ? Why do you feel entitled to judge another person's physical appearance, Billy? Heck Yes! Loam! posted:Did all this spawn from gamer gate or was that just the point where much of this became a thing? I'll never understand the internet. GamerGate was a compaction cycle for the many factions in the Male Supremacy umbrella. That level of poo poo existed before, but mostly as a loose collection of unfuckable nerds trading tips, reassuring each other that they're not the only unfuckable ones out there, and whining about how minorities and women have so many more rights and privileges than white men. GG forced a lot of them to take a side on the matter of women in their favourite media, specifically "should we drive them out," and as a result the remaining movement is now smaller but harder, and much, much louder. E: ElevatorGate was the big one for the Rationalists and Internet Athiests, GamerGate was the big one for MRAs and PUAs and their affiliate network of bullshit artists.

D, but how does one convince an academic to debate a YouTube idiot? The same way that you convince anyone of anything- keep it vague and let their assumptions guide them. Sargon of Akkad has acquired a rep for being a thinker. It's completely unearned and he's unable to actually live up to it but he has that rep. Winters probably assumed that he would earn it.

PiCroft posted:I wouldn't downplay the impact the reactionaries have. For a time, I was briefly enamoured with Sargon's rhetoric and I've been a lefty for almost my entire life. The Islamic terrorist attacks genuinely terrified me and when you see the propaganda of "The Muslims are coming to breed you out of your countries!!!" and you're already suspicious of them, it can drive you into some very dark places. I often wonder what would happen if you just played the Socratic irony card on every single thing that these fuckers say. Just let them spool out their underdeveloped philosophy out until it hits life story, then keep going until it becomes achingly, blazingly, un-ignorably clear that they're still not over the time Cassandra turned them down in high school and think that they would totally be getting laid more if she hadn't.

I'm unwilling to believe that dating a shithead changes you into a similar shithead; I think that the shitheadedness must have been inside them all along and they only felt free to release it when they realised that they wouldn't lose the person they're with because of it. And I have to imagine that they're mistaking traditional MRA post-coital clingy neediness as some sort of actual emotional connection, because they're similarly incomplete humans.

Dapper_Swindler posted:yep pretty much. i mean the machine game wolfensteins are weird mix of exploitation film/Tarantino violence and ideas, amazing characters/moments/a sex scene that wasnt creepy or exploitative and man in high castle. everyone should play it. its made by most of old starbreez studios, who made riddick games and the darkness 1(2 is good too) and syndicate(which was pretty good on its own). seriously buy new order, its cheap as gently caress right now. No kidding, that was one of the classiest sex scenes I've ever seen in a video game. It's also a really well done example of a middle aged straight white male protagonist (ie, he's interesting and fun to play)

Guavanaut posted:This is easily the worst third of the 'democracy, the great silencer' triad. If you think you can't be angry at your winning candidate turning to poo poo, where have you been for the last eight years? If you think you can't be angry at the other winning candidate being exactly the piece of poo poo he claimed he'd be, where have you been for the last six months? If you don't help a situation, do you really think you have any right to be angry that it didn't turn out good? I get that you're basically whining because you thought people would be fine with you voting for Johnson or whatever, but grow the gently caress up. In America's first-past-the-post system, not voting is the same as voting for whoever ends up winning; it is literally saying "Go ahead, someone else decide, I don't want to have a choice in this." Third party voting is identical to that, with the added bonus of being pathetically naive. E: Also if you need your vote to be a statement of your pure and noble intent and not your, y'know, choice, then you really need to stop being such a precious little flower about politics. Politics is dirty and angry and cruel and unfair. Sorry, snowflake. Somfin fucked around with this message at 13:22 on Jul 10, 2017 |

Did your Mexican friend who is also real and exists need calming down too?

HBomb, Olson, Ellis and Shaun have really fuckin' ruined me for audio quality/script craftsmanship baselines. E: This is loving torment dude, how am I 4 minutes in and he hasn't actually gotten anywhere on the topic, it's just reading a paper off the screen but he's screwing everything up and repeating himself. Did he never edit this? Did he listen to it? Did he... actually think that this was good? E2: Seven minutes in, still working through the intro to a paper he wrote but the way he's reading it he has no idea what it actually is. E3: Eight minutes. So far he's apologised for his spelling, his sentence construction, his pronunciation, his lack of citations and his actual arguments, all as preamble to actually getting to the point. He got hung up on the word "infidel," which he identified as a 'name,' for more than five seconds, and he ended up having to spell it out- again, this is in a paper he loving wrote. I'm gonna abandon this, as he's clearly in the 'too ignorant to even comprehend how wrong he is' camp. Why the gently caress did he make this?

Ytlaya posted:The funny thing about Sargon is that I don't even get the impression he's purposely being dishonest when he does this. I think he's just honestly really stupid and doesn't understand how to do research and interpret what he finds. He definitely doesn't read any more than he literally has to. He's got no idea how to interpret anything beyond outright statements and almost zero actual reading comprehension. More than that, I'm pretty sure he's got no curiosity left, intellectual or otherwise- he's not willing to investigate anything beyond the initial finding, which he takes at face value for the minimum amount of time before he confidently asserts that he understands it, which usually means "the title" and "the first picture." Basically I'm not surprised he's on wingnut welfare, even being a computer janitor requires the ability to read.

I've started listening to the podcast he references and links to in this video. It's... pretty amazingly well done. Basically talking through the history of Rome as we can piece it together, while keeping always in the audience's mind that it's basically all bullshit from second-hand and non-historical sources but it tells us a huge amount about what Romans wanted to think their history was. It also consistently emphasizes that Rome was basically a war society glued together with mysticism and religion. Of course, I don't know much about Rome, so... I dunno, I like it?

Discendo Vox posted:hate speech doesn't give you legal or moral license to commit crimes against the speaker Discendo, you should take care not to conflate 'moral' and 'legal' in your mind. Remember that we're less than two hundred years out from slavery being finally declared illegal in the United States. That poo poo has never been moral. Still isn't. Is it legal to assault someone if they're openly delivering rape threats to a Muslim woman on a bus? gently caress no. Is it moral to do so? Eh, you should probably verbally explain why you're doing it first. That way the Pavlovian response kicks in and they learn not to do it again in future. Morally, you should always give someone a chance to back down. If they don't take it, it is correct to establish a link between talking poo poo and getting hit in the mind of the bigot.

rkajdi posted:For reals, buying sex from some poor woman (because I feel bad for any woman who has to erotically touch that douchebag) is not a kink, any more than other sex crimes are "kinks". It's just a man too pathetic to normally negotiate sex pretending to be a functioning human until the hour runs out. I'm not often going to go to bat for a shitbird, but actually buckling down and paying for sex, rather than whining endlessly about how he's not getting any, puts him above a dangerously significant portion of the internet's male population.
