With the new hit horror film Obsession (this doesn't really go into spoilers and is at the very end of this video essay but you can pick up from the trailer), it's worth looking back all the way to the very start with slasher horror. Rachel Barker (no relation to Curry Barker haha, director of Obsession), explores this archetype of the loser incel villain and its evolution from killer (Peeping Tom, Halloween) to 90s manosphere revered characters (Fight Club, American Psycho), and now more down-to-earth "nice guy" sympathetic loner/loser misogynists with entitlement complexes (Companion, Better Watch Out, Blink Twice, Don't Worry Darling, Adolescence, and now Obsession).

I think it's about how middle class white men felt as the aggrieved in a patriarchal, capitalist system that left them behind and how they take it out on women (offline and online) rather than the social and economic structures no longer having them be dominant.

lol, mess still hasn’t added up the movie of the year votes even though there’s less than 50 and it’s been a month.

Says the guy who lives in an extremely patriarchal culture and had his marriage arranged

[benji]

If the social and economic structures no longer have them be dominant then how is it a patriarchal system and why would a patriarchal system leave them behind?

are we doing drive-by chud accusations now


headline this shit

The irony of Visa calling out the evil patriarchy. The only reason he has a “wife” is because she was forced to marry him.

No, no, not forced. She only would have been shunned by her family for not being married with a non-zero chance of an honor killing if she had boyfriends

[Jansen]

You called a very straightforward sentence "Trumpian" because of something a different writer said about a different game five years ago, got it 👍

incel is now a synonym for anyone who expresses misogynistic views

It's time to wield your power and get these pussies banned imran

[simiansmarts]

The writer of that review posts here, so I think it's kind of shit to keep personally insulting them. That review was supposed to be for Paste Games before it closed and instead it found a home on Kotaku. I assume if that same review word-for-word landed on Paste, people would not be going "lmao Paste Games is not worth reading." They also don't work for Kotaku, it is a freelance review.

Also, like, my wife is a senior reporter at Kotaku, so yeah, I'm going to see those "The whole publication is garbage!" comments as the bullshit that it is.

ScOULaris has always been a weirdo but it's funny when it pushes too far and even era's like chill the fuck out dawg

Weird title but glad you enjoy the video game

Main Character Syndrome claims yet another.

Why do y'all make threads/thread titles like this

I can't empathize with someone who has trouble wrapping their heads around the concept of "differing opinions"

How do you deal with difference of opinions in general with this attitude, OP?

Not a good way to start off a discussion the same way that people give articles with clickbaity titles shit.

I can be pretty passionate about certain opinions that I hold, especially this one. Although of course the thread title is a little tongue-in-cheek.

It's not tongue-in-cheek. This is the same guy who crashed out after no one else could spot what was in fact reveal trailer for the new Fumito Ueda game 3 seconds in the way he could.

EDIT: Ignore this slop, the Imran drama is way funnier.

Was just about to post that. Didn’t think he could be any fucking lamer than he already is

[BIONIC]

Also how about you let your wife make an account and speak for herself, chudlord

[simiansmarts]

Imran tried to weaponize a chud accusation into a dogpile + ban but he completely fell flat on his face
 

[killamajig]

I'm looking forward to Messy's wife taking the liberal thinking to heart, divorcing him and getting custody of the kids. We know Messy is the type of guy to kidnap his kids back to Pakistan, become a devout Muslim, and find an obedient burka wife.

Not sure if "the reviewer posts on ERA" is such a winning argument. So they're supposed to lie and be kinder?

[benji]

"Oh, your wife's a senior reporter at Kotaku? Yeah, the whole publication is garbage."

[who is ted danson?]

Me posting on ree

[benji]

Speaking of reporting, did Imran ever get to the bottom of who deliberately set up Highguard to fail and why they did it?

[BIONIC]

"Oh, your wife's a senior reporter at Kotaku? Yeah, the whole publication is garbage."

I think it’s safe to assume that anyone willing marry Shocking Alberto (the ex-prime minister of Pakistan) is probably not someone worth listening to about much of anything.

 User Banned (2 Weeks): Dismissing Concerns of Bigotry over a Series of Posts

This is what I'm thinking as well. Dude has gay and non-white characters in his game, while saying he hates being "woke".

He is just a manchild.

100%. A lot of men are like it and its why we're in the current political and social climate. There's no ability to accept that others could possibly change you for the better, or that others even should. Allowing others to do that is weak, soy, gay, whatever word they want to use to describe it.

I don't think he personally holds bigotry at heart, he's just misguided and emotionally weak.

[Let's Cyber]

Or imagine being married to Patricia Hernandez



EDIT: My favorite Kotaku/Hernandez burn of all time.

 User Banned (2 Weeks): Misogynist Commentary

God of Whore

[BIONIC]

I mean, we literally have the right not to be called what pretty much are slurs just for sharing an opinion.

Let's definitely not get so silly as to compare "gamergater" to racial slurs, yeah?

Lol what? Maybe google the meaning of Slur.

It's not just racial and yes, on this forum, calling someone a Gamer Gater is pretty much a slur

You really shouldn't be pushing this one still.

Or what? you are going call me, a gay black african man a red pilled Gamer Gater. Have fun with it

Comparing the word gamergater to actual slurs is ridiculous, and you should be able to understand that. You're taking this all wildly too far.

I mean, using that in a socialist lefty forum pretty much is, but you do you

Yeh I'm out lol, classic review thread.
