I should note that I'm not saying Microsoft is better or smarter, merely that Microsoft as a corporation is a software company so it examines the markets entirely different than Sony and Nintendo do. Microsoft can foresee, even if they can't articulate it, the idea of "Xbox" that exists above any specific hardware because this already exists for the company and it's called Windows. (Or Office or Server or...)

This is also why I tend to be more positive towards Microsoft than most gamers capital-G or not, it seems silly to ignore what they've done with their actual near monopolies.

Trans athletes is my favorite topic that they sperg out over and are 100% wrong on, but they're so short sighted, they rather die on that hill, so it leads to them name calling and lashing out at transphobes hidden in their mist. Because what else is left when you've lost the argument? Shaming and appeal to emotion.

The first ban was unjust. I just KNOW it.

If they weren't doing anything wrong then why did they have an alt.

Because POC need it.

For telling marginalized people to shut up about their oppression. 

Though don't let this make you forget how staff banned and drove off all the Palestinian posters for wanting to not be murdered.

They did force him to do it. They went into a meeting with him the same time he was going around the Hill meeting with every caucus. The leaks we got out of the other caucuses were things like the caucus leader suddenly hanging up the call when someone asks Biden to step down, anger and fury from the New Dem caucus and... handshakes and support out of the Progressive Caucus followed by 3 major progressive announcements in the next couple days

If you want to blind yourself to how politics works, go for it. And yeah, now that they are party policies they are party policies. That's why Biden supports abortion rights despite being Catholic and personally against it.

Nah, you don't get to talk this crackpot bullshit thinking they can pull this apparently easy switcheroo behind the scenes, and say that I'm blind to how politics work. You have the political acumen of a toaster.

i get the point being made here, but reaaaalllly don't gotta link to anything that trash ass transphobe has to say, he's absolutely vile

He isn't great, but it's also a post that's been making rounds for good reason — it's probably true.

Geez....people here have straight up sold out.

I mean, journalists and pundits are retweeting what is an obvious point made by Jesse — that Harris would raise a significant amount on day 1. That's most likely true regardless of how you feel about switching candidates.

As a queer person, I'm okay admitting that is most likely correct.

How about not platforming fucking awful transphobic bigoted people?

He removed the tweet 

I also think this is true that Kamala would raise significant money on her first day in.

I'm caught off-guard by everyone not wanting to spend $40 for this game. I've been out of the loop when it comes to the gaming market for years, but if this was free-to-play I wouldn't be touching it. But I guess it makes sense that the masses wants it to be free when most of the competition in this sub-genre is.

haziq correctly pointing out that the prevailing resetti correct opinion changed and is being pushed insanely hard by one mod, of course he's been unpersoned.

Anyone know if getting shot at has changed Trump's mind on the big beautiful dome of iron? Weirdly this wasn't mentioned in his speech. I'd be upset if he now wants personal domes for every individual instead of that one giant one.

The substantive part of the crowdfunder text consists of just 18 sentences. Some of these sentences are factually misleading, many are tendentious in the extreme, and nearly all are emotive, alarmist and/or grossly manipulative.

Sounds like online political activism.

He also got permanently banned from the constructive thread for 'attacking moderation staff'. They still did not respond to him:

Suggesting he has dementia or calling him senile is not difficult to avoid. We even had another post calling Bernie Sanders "decrepit" which must be perfectly fine as well because no action has been taken on it either. It's ageism plain and simple and the non-response we've gotten for mentioning it here speaks volumes and is embarrassing.

B dubbs addressed it with the maroon box in one of threads

User threadbanned (permanent): attacking moderation staff

We're in the 'Constructive Community Discussion' thread, not the 'Constructive Community One-Sided Complaining and Mods Reply When They Feel Like It' thread.

Posting it there instead of just being open and chatting about it here is disingenuous.

Update: Furthermore, one reason the GLP has “received many emails from desperately worried parents” is that they have been soliciting such emails on social media. And there is, at the very least, a large question mark over the unsubstantiated suicide figures given to the GLP by the unidentified “NHS whistleblower” – one detailed analysis of the available sources provisionally concludes that, between 2017 and 2024, there were only three confirmed or possible suicides of trans-identifying young people using Gender Identity Development Services, and that in each case the young person had an extremely complex medical history.

This sounds appalling but I wouldn't put it past the Israeli military doctors to inflict harm on these sick/wounded children while spinning it as a huge PR move, despite it being necessary only because they closed the border with Egypt. What a bleak situation.

Doctors can also be racists, and it only takes a little bit of dehumanization (of which there is plenty in the Israeli society) for them to forgo the Hippocratic Oath.

lol, Israel does a bad thing, not allowing a field hospital for sick children, and this guy somehow feels the need to come up with a fake scenario about how they're even more evil. I guess he wanted to make sure to let people know that he believes every Israeli is a monster
