Maybe hire Jewish writers instead of writing good Jewish characters.

Like, how long are we going to continue allowing trolls like in the OP the satisfaction of knowing they can run to the authorities when the water gets hot?

Good question. My guess: potentially as long as we refuse to participate in elections.

When questioned they say,

=NanhacottI only used that example because Jewish representation was used as an example of what the game does well -- you can substitute that for POC, or people with different gender identities, or whatever you want.

And what I'm trying to say is that representation can't just be straight cis white men representing marginalized people, while also silencing their actual voices. Ideally, we'd see way more marginalized people representing themselves.

Basically their stance is hire _____ minority writer instead of authors who can write good ______ minority.   This is like a parody of what the alt-righter think, "libs" believe.  Like, hire the shitty minority hire even if they are shit at their job, they deserve it for being a minority.  

Dear God.  This idiot is the guy that fights passionately for the cause you believe in but does it in a way that hamstrings the group.

These people actually mostly are the cartoonish caricatures of supposed libtards....though...

Weird how everything suspicious or clearly bad in America right now is related to four or five guys.

That dude, Rinoa, is fucking nuts.

A lot of representation IS cynical efforts by creators to look better. Do they employ the people they're representing? Do they stand up for, interact with, and befriend these people in real life? Do they understand people unlike them as humans with individual qualities and inner lives? Using minorities as props to lower the heat is a long standing media tradition, yes.

I mean, i don't disagree with you, but at this point why do we celebrate representation in other games?

I largely don't celebrate representation that is not inclusive of the group being represented on the dev team.

This asshole spergs in the Burka thread, btw.  

The reason why publishers now get the cold feet in representation is also because that attitude of “if you get it wrong, you are scum regardless on how well intended or, worse, actually well written it was”. If I need to guess, Rinoa has a very narrow view of what she considers “good representation” of his social group and is easier to “cheer” for stuff that put ethnic and sexual groups in their corners, well segregated.

It's a real world example of when people joke that leftists get mad about there being no good black villains in movies, yet when there are the same people get mad that the villain is black. That Era person must've been willed into existence from the collective imagination of the alt-right.

Chuds used The Secret!  Their thoughts have influenced objective nature.




(My brother from out of town came and we ate at our parents house.  My mom spent hours cooking and my dad and brother spent the whole time animatedly talking about various liberal conspiracies of what the alt-right, global, cabal of chuds were planning via colonialism and banking.  It was like reading a Nepenthe post. Vague yet declarative statements, improperly inserted poli-sci jargon, non-existent connections between historical events, and self satisfied observations that were either idiotic or cribbed from someone else.)



If only someone could, say, coordinate a gathering together, choreograph them into a structure, . . . . . perhaps administrate a group of people.  What's the word I'm looking for?   . . .  Bah, I can't think of it.  Let's call the whole thing off. 

We were so close to ending capitalism too.

For someone who spends so much time organising out in her community neppy sure does spend a lot of her day sitting forever alone in her bedroom at her parent's McMansion typing long winded diatribes.

Nanhacott: Only marginalized can empathize with write about marginalized… specially their own group.

Also Nanhacott:

I wish the shooter had gotten the love, compassion, and support they needed so that they didn't feel like they had to do this. She was only 18. And even in the press briefing that just happened they were using bullshit far-right terminology to refer to her. Being a marginalized person can be extremely lonely and extremely difficult, and that might not have played a factor in this at all, but if anyone finds themselves in this position, something has gone horribly wrong. The system broke down, or wasn't enough.

The world is an extremely cruel place right now.

Organize her community is “going to furry meet ups while avoiding that dude she swindled”.

My sister loves DoA, and it's the only fighting game franchise she's into. Maybe because there is such a focus on girls. She hasn't followed it up recently since DoA 4, and I've not had a chance to talk to her about the issues it has, but I can see why it has a decent female demographic.

Sadly, I no longer have a dedicated crew of irl people that I play video games with. A lot has changed in the world since those days, and there's a lot of people out there that I formerly associated with in friendly terms that I no longer really have any interest in speaking to at all. Iykyk. It's very sad, but it's the unfortunate reality. Today, I am very much in an "Obi Wan Kenobi" type of cultural situation.

If I'm going to have people to play this game with, it will be either people I find via matchmaking or people I party up with through here. It's not going to be people I knew in a past life, unfortunately. :/

“Obi Wan Kenobi” type of cultural situation

At some point we have to do something about the pipeline to the right that is so easy for our youth to fall into. Or else they are going to keep finding vulnerable people who are POC, who are LGBTQ+, who have disabilities and/or more and use the vulnerable to carry out their agenda in a way where they never take the blame.

Hold the social media companies and platforms like Discord and Stream accountable for hosting these hateful assholes, as a first step.

Why do they never say what "holding them accountable" is supposed to look like? It's because they want violence, right? Prison and murder for Gabe and Discord execs for allowing legal speech?

Just nationalize Steam and have sweet baby staffers run it.  Maybe the Mellon Foundation can take over video games.

I have some concerns about allowing Donald Trump to run Steam. But I'm sure it's nothing that some organizing couldn't fix.

 There its Is WLW content

NOTE: I am a lesbian, therefore anything I say in this OP is objective truth as written in LGBTQ+ Online discussion code 735, Paragraph 8. Sorry, those are the rules.

Happy Valentine's Day every wlw and lesbian in ERA, hope you're having a good day whether your single, dating, married etc. Wanted to give you y'all your own special thread to make you all feel special and not left out (:

So today I have a bit of a PSA for everyone: Maleficent is the best Girlfriend for any woman (:

Now I know how some of you are reacting right now, "Dammit Echo, we're not all into Super villainesses!", "Why didn't you just have this part of the other thread!", "Why did putting pickles in the Ice Cream ruin both!?" but I have proof of my claim! Now sit back, enjoy a Ginger beer on me and I'll explain my reasoning!

Dictating what media your wife consumes, what she wears, where and if she's allowed to work, what friends she can see and mandating she answer your phone at all times, fine!  I don't like it but on Midweek Rise Up, Charlie Kirk's wife tells us a wife's duty is to her husband first and to the jesus version of God second.  We all need to respect her wishes in these tumultuous times.

But your own sister?!  Your own sister you do that to?  You sick fuck.
