 User banned (permanent): dismissing racist portrayals with whataboutisms, account in junior phase

And? Do you have any other commentary on this to share? Like do you even have anything to say about how these particular levels in Chris' campaign had the "Chinese zombies" were stuffed in Kowloon City-style shanty towns and how that made the setting itself look?
I have noticed even going back to RE5's original release, that when a lot of counter-criticism for RE5's gross imagery was brought up, people tend to retort with this shallow whataboutism. There were a lot of dipshits saying "what about the Spanish zombies in RE4?" when trying to counter the RE5 criticisms. They even brought up the Spanish Civil War, like that had fuck all to do with it. It's a very surface level understanding of the situation. No one is saying one race can't be presented as zombies or enemies -- modern RE games have been pretty diverse with the enemy zombies, and that's just fine. But the issue is in the context of how they are presented and the setting itself, and RE5 completely fumbled the ball on that. I do not feel comfortable playing that game now because of how gross its imagery is.

 

 

I'm sorry for mentioning streamers in unc central but I thought it was really sickening how Capcom paid off IShowSpeed before his African trip to have people wear grass skirts, live in sod and grass huts, and walk around shirtless on his stream. Just more gaslighting to convince people that there are places in Africa where people live like that to cover up for the neocolonialist lies of Resident Evil 5. Luckily I can see through the lies, as an American who has never left my country.

Yeah, fuck sex workers right? Get your puritanical shit out of here.

BS  

Also, since when is referencing the old Kowloon offensive to the Chinese?  

Is this being pro gentrification?

There was a time I would have called this an overreaction. But with everything in the world today, nah, you don't get that grace.

 User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissing Concerns of Racism

Why?

Because it looks like an honest mistake and she realised she fucked up badly (plus was apparently extorted for it). I don't know this person and hence her show getting cancelled seems like an overreaction.

But now, with present day politics and her lame apology, it seems like she earned the cancellation. If she goes full right wing, well that just proves it even more that she was rotten

The N word is heinous and folks should be rightfully reprimanded but I always feel like the response should be proportional and not over compensate

I've been black my entire 38, almost 39 years on this oblong spheroid of a planet. Not once has it slipped from my face or from my fingers by mistake. I sing it in songs, I say it in conversation, I write it in posts before hitting backspace -- did it several times in this reply -- and I say it when I'm watching the news and someone says or does some stupid shit.

It's not accidental for me. If it's something she can flub, it's something she's loose with when the cameras aren't rolling. There's no mistakes here.

Fair enough. She's american and even non-americans (like myself) know better. You're right that it probably wasnt a mistake.

What a shit ban. He hit all the right points, but it was "dismissing concerns of racism" because you're not even allowed to share the mere possibility that your past self could've taken it as an accidental slip up. 

If you second guessed yourself even for a moment, then you've already solidified yourself as complicit in their racism.

Kinda worried about that poster here who's been on the frontline. It's been nearly 5 months now since his last post. Hope he's safe.

I tracked him down on socials and it's bad news I'm afraid.

He was killed in action on the 7th of October defending Ukraine. RIP eatmoreveg

Unironic

Side-eyeing how y'all never make these kinds of posts for Black and Brown bodies resisting capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy.

[yetanotheraccountholyf]

Someone clue me in on the racism here. 

It's a joke about rotisserie chicken (with KFC sort of misapplied, since I don't think they even make rotisserie style chicken...).

It's Hamilton's car, and with the KFC mods must have felt it was close enough.

Ah, I thought it was a generic F1 car (with the goofy ass spinny thing on it). KFC is questionable given this context.

EDIT: especially because KFC does NOT make rotisserie chicken. do not enter their establishment seeking rotisserie chicken because you will not find it.

the ban is fucking nuts

it couldn’t be a generic F1 car, only one team has the spinning thing - so there are two drivers to choose from, not twenty
there is a solid chance that whoever made this picture is from Europe where KFC is the default chicken fast food, doesn’t really matter if it serves rotisserie chicken specifically

im unreasonably upset over the insanity of that ban

I love it. it should have been permanent 

[Greatness Gone]

Are all of the mods rapidly becoming more and more illiterate or is Slayven the one banning all these people? A lot of these perms don’t even make sense.

okay he really is a gay retard...HOURS of testing? Just booted the game up now, Turnip driver and no settings changes and it runs at 60+ fps no problem

Retard spends hours tweaking settings to make games work...meanwhile his family is starving and on the verge of being homeless and his resume and job applications aren't getting sent out...

Just from that post I’ve learned that dude has a better iPad and a better retro handheld than I do. 

Yeah, but I bet your family isn't homeless and starving though...

 User banned (permanent): inflammatory comparisons, account in junior phase

Using AI to pair eggs to sperm sounds like techno eugenics. Why not just work to clean up the environment. Air quality and microplastics are a major factor in declining fertility. And then there's the whole thing about capitalism being fundamentally anti-worker and anti-family. But you know, eugenics good! Technology can fix everything! Just remove people from the equation altogether.

How is this post different from all the other ones claiming that it's eugenics?

Boy, this guy I hate sure does suck, right fellas?

[HeavenIsAPlaceOnEarth]

Huh, never seen "anti-sex worker sentiment" as a ban reason before. Must be new.

So now they're strictly pro-sex work now? Then why does complementing the body of a pornstar/onlyfans girl get you banned? 

Pro sex worker, anti sex-work customer.

It was instantly played out too. I also ran into some suspicious Blue MAGA bots on twitter that have Gavin as one of their first follow and constantly argue with leftists, always using the r slur.
So I think his garbage is only going to keep ramping up until everyone is sick of him.

I've heard of treating politics like sports, but I don't know if I've ever encountered treating sports like politics. These people act like losing a game of a sport they probably never watch means their country is going to be dissolved.
