 User banned (3 months): xenophobic rhetoric, prior severe ban

Isn't the leader of the AFD a lesbian woman married to a sirilankan immigrant and living in Switzerland??!! Fascists are so dumb.

It doesn't matter as long as you run on anti-immigration rhetoric you will gain ground or even win. it's the biggest issue atm. the reality is that no one wants immigrants especially to America's level where you basically don't have your country anymore. maybe it works for the US with the whole meeting of immigrants shtick but it won't somewhere with a lot of history and roots like EU. it especailly won't work in eastern europe where they got their independence very recently and still are nationalistic.

anyway, these guys will take immigrants like Italy anyway. there's no other choice.

Isn't it great when people on a forum that's not filled with gamergaters constantly accuse each other of being secret gamergaters?

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.

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

Is different because is not a “western” culture.

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

Weird. I thought bringing up shit from X amount of years ago to drag someone now was the standard Era gotcha attempt. Suddenly it’s a problem? Very curious 

[NeppyNep]

Only on Era will a review thread about a James Bond game have “socialist lefty forum” uttered in a sentence. 

This is the unintentional hilarity I just can’t get enough of from that site. Also love the “that Kotaku reviewer posts on here” ok and? I glanced at the actual review and it is indeed typical Kotaku slop. Reviewer doesn’t want criticism about it from readers, get better at your job or find a new line of work.

When it's used against someone we don't like, we clap like seals and call it "receipts"

When it's used against someone we do like, it's call doxing and ENDANGERING THEIR LIVES.

I retract my earlier statement, Imran DID manage to get someone banned with his chud accusation even though it wasn't the intended target.

From the NY Times piece. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/24/arts/music/michael-jackson-second-family-cascio.html

Again, smoke and fire and all that. But there are also millions of dollars at play, and a group of people who for years defended Jackson and swore up and down nothing happened, all while receiving payments. So, either they knew and still hid things for profit, or they didn't, but still took money.

Another muddy case it seems.

Sure...

Seems like if it continues to get great user ratings, a good cinema score and rotten tomatoes audience rating. Some will just say they're pedo lovers or MJ diehards.

Guess only critics ratings matter, lol.

We don't need to do anything to sanitize the horrors of what this monster did.

That doesn't really have anything to do with the analysis of the specific situation I quoted. Not sure why you're cross posting me.

So how was the movie?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/scary-movie-6-official-trailer-in-theaters-june-12.1450417/page-5#post-155429668

the reactions in this thread are hilarious, talk about hate watching 😂

🤷

It looks like shit

to each is own

it's just funny to see so many subscribed to the thread to talk about that LOL

I mean...shitting on the movie in this thread isn't gonna boost its box office at all.

I didn't say it would. It'll do fine for it's audience all it's own

Okay. Then why do you care about what people in this thread say?

I can't laugh the same way ya'll laugh? LOL

https://www.resetera.com/threads/scary-movie-6-official-trailer-in-theaters-june-12.1450417/page-6#post-155430688

You can laugh at whatever you want. You're the one that came in to post about people "hate watching" lmao.

If I can, no idea why you questioned it then, lol

https://www.resetera.com/threads/scary-movie-6-official-trailer-in-theaters-june-12.1450417/page-6#post-155431333

Yeah, It's always amusing.

That said, these trailers are really bad to the point that I almost feel a bit of second hand embarrassment for the people involved.

Yeah to be honest I haven't watched a single trailer, they're bringing the crew back so as an A-Lister, I have to give it a shot, the original 2 are timeless. But there are people who didn't like those either.

Here you go:

I don't want to, I feel trailers show too much and I'd rather just see it.

Then why come into a thread to try and driveby LOL at people who are reacting to these trailers?

The thread discussion is literally about the trailers.

And the posters and the popcorn buckets.

You didn't answer my question.

If you refuse to watch the ads and then say people are being too critical of them, then there's sincerely no point in engaging with you.

Wasn't necessary to answer since you were incorrect about the commentary being about literally only the trailers, I found it funny, that's it, continue your subscription.

I do think it's amusing that a handful of people here are so invested in hating something that they constantly respond to every new development about it. Whereas most will make a comment or two and most on. But there's always a handful who continue to post about it… its a behavior pattern I find amusing. I didn't name any names or respond to any particular person, if you are offended by that, then that's on you. 🤷🏽‍♂️

People worked their damndest to get it done in a tight timeframe.



I think it makes more sense to go "Wow it was impressive how hard they worked considering the bad situation handed to them" rather than "I guess it was totally fine and no one needed to complain!"

No wonder Guitar Hero 3 was such a hit. Not a lot of competition there.

imo 2007-2011ish was absolute dogshit for gaming. I could probably pick the two bookend games where games got shit after and then interesting again

Crash out in Forza Horizon 6 CCU number thread. Sorry fella but when it comes to posting on era you got to know when to not be ban baited 

Makes sense if you want to grow this franchise to make it available in as many places as possible.

I am just going by what Phil Spencer said in 2024. These franchises aren't growing and so they are making them available in more places. Right now it's more or less the same people who played previous games are buying this one, but of course there are new players too, as well as new people will come in on other platforms.



There is no such thing as - "There is no need for growth". Their actions say otherwise.

I am quoting Phil Spencer. You are implying that he is a troll for saying this.

No need to feel insecure. No one is downplaying anything.

Look, all I said was, they wanted growth so they are going to get it. People need to look at these discussions without console war lense.

You weren't. I don't know why my statement would trigger you.

Why was my comment dumb? I saw the high CCU number so I said that them wanting to grow the franchise makes sense.

No need to start it then.

Okay, I am heading out, clearly people can't talk about these things without resorting to console war.

Have a great day. Hopefully we can have a conversation one day again.

No need to be rude. You don't have to respond to me as I am done talking here.

This is quite rude for someone who never talked to me or interacted with me in any way before to just come in and say - "who are you talking to, lol".



Let's go word by word with my statement so that you and ANYBODY ELSE can just read and move on without replying to me with some sort of snark remark.



I saw the CCU was higher than it was for Forza Horizon 5, which in a way makes sense, there are more people who are exposed to the franchise now, and my statement was about how exposing this franchise to more people will help it grow, which was exactly what Phil Spencer said they wanted to do.



I hope we are done here. If you or anyone else is trying to "gotcha" me or see some hidden meaning in my messages, I suggest you not interacting with me 
at all to save us some time. It's quite useful actually to see exactly who is responding to me.
