How is it peaceful when our beloved noodle said in a edited post that him and his group will push to have the administrator ousted? 

Let's also not ignore muttering asshole under his breath. Words can be used for acts of violence as well. Ree taught me that.

When it often seems like the world is against us, Hasan's coverage and advocacy for these protests have been a joy to see.

…how does noodlesoup have time be the first poster in a thread? Shouldn’t he be talking to a fucking lawyer?

He's like Planetsmasher, repeatedly hitting F5 every second.

Doing a little terrorism and blackmail is not peaceful protest

they act like as long as you don't physically touch anyone, it's inherently peaceful

occupying a building and barricading stairwells and making makeshift weapons and armor and stockpiling triage gear is peaceful, because you haven't done anything yet

they're doing the whole waving your arms all around them and pretending to punch them like "blah! what? what?? does this bug you?? but I'm not touching you!!"

And those are the same people who declare that words are violence and harmful.

How dare he.

The sickest part about all this, is that their hatred for holocaust remembrance all comes down to being jealous that the jews actually have a genocide to their name and they don't which includes both the Palestinians and Transbians and that jealousy more than anything is probably what connects them.

It's all some sick and perverted attempt to take away the ownership of a genocide from the jews so they themselves can be the 'real' victims, which is impossible as long as 'the biggest crime against humanity' still exists.

This was the same Don Fluffles who had his thread locked due to posting another youtuber. 

B-dubs, why is Hasan fine and the other not?

hasan is so stupid, so breathtakingly moronically stupid

practically the trump of the left, I don't know how his fans can't see it

just completely incapable of wrapping his head around a cogent thought

endless takes on this level around every corner

[Boredfrom]

Why they act like Hamas is not a malicious actor? You can hate Netanyahu while not taking Hamas word as gospel. “We totally want to accept a ceasefire, you guys. We, the group infamous for using civilians as shields.”

They hate the Israel government but don’t dare to question why the “de facto” Gaza government started a conflict impossible to win.

We can go further:
Report videos.
Report comments.
Report them to family members and authority figures(e.g. their teachers, bosses, local police, etc.)
Report their Twitter and Facebook accounts.
Contact advertisers to threaten boycott of their products.
It may not have an instant effect, but if we keep doing it repeatedly and vocally, then YouTube and advertisers will eventually have to listen.

Burka thread is going squizo because Helldivers 2:

That's because largely, I believe, the controversy with Helldivers II is garnering everyone's attention as the new grift more or less. Capital-G gamers always flock from one controversy to the next like firecrackers.

It's so frustrating cause they're almost definitely the ones that blew it up out of proportion and made it worse

And to think the root cause was from them getting mad that Arrowhead has queer devs and wanting any excuse to pile on them, plus the whole "Sony is censoring SB" crap

Imagine what it'd be like if gamers had nearly as much energy for sexualization and female presentation in games like Stellar Blade as they do for Helldivers 2 requiring a PSN account.

So the CHUDS were responsible for the Helldivers shitshow or not? 

Also, Cenauru is fucking aware on how insane she sounds if she pushes the CHUD conspiracy in the other threads.

I'm mixed on this.
On one hand, I'm a Steven Universe fan, i discovered it during the pandemic and it was one of the big things that helped me start trying to understand other people better (I'm autistic and thus developmentally disabled so it did what it's supposed to do for people who are roughly ~10). I just think it's a nice show about different forms of love and the work that goes into all kinds of relationships, and also a show about being nice to people and trying to help them get over their problems, and later letting them help you with your problems (Future got really relatable). A sizeable amount of people online are convinced that Steven Universe is a bad amoral show because it "defends colonisers" or whatever just because it showed that the Diamonds weren't completely evil (they are still bad people who hurt a lot of people and who wanted to take over the universe), and they also hate it because certain characters are "toxic" one of which being a woman with PTSD who is struggling to understand her place in the world after centuries of trauma. These people are fucking ridiculous.

However, I do find that certain moral reasons can affect my enjoyment of things. I'm trans and outside of hate-watches and things where the bad depiction is relatable, I loathe negative depictions of trans women as serial killers. I loathe cis people playing trans people. I am working on being anti-racist and old shows that engage with racist stereotypes (especially racist American Indian and Indigenous stereotypes due to people I am friends with) make me feel awful and I don't want to continue watching.
I also have trouble with overly violent shows, and as such I don't watch a lot of horror, a lot of crime , and a lot of action stuff, so I haven't encountered things like Breaking Bad or the Sopranos which people keep bringing up in this thread. I also still watch mysteries and in a show like Columbo I like the cat and mouse and I kind of cheer for both of them because even though I know Columbo is going to win, I like the moments when we don't "know" and I like how smart the villains are.

My general perspective on this as someone who works with kids both as a career and in helping out my girlfriend, is that you have to teach kids how to understand media. You don't just tell them things are bad and you can't like them, you have to get them to really think about it and also let them know that while old things can have bad things in them it doens't mean you can never like them, and just because something is fun doesn't mean other people have to enjoy it either. People like different things. It took me until I was 10 to work out that people like different things

There's no way this cunt works with kids. Not a fucking chance they'd let this nutter into a school.

The public adress system at my workplace plays music during the days and Two Hearts by Phil Collins started playing and I couldn't help to think of this whacko. I doubt they actually work with anything, I think in another post they basically said they're disabled and can't leave the house or something.

Blacks, Native Americans, and pedos… I mean, nerds… I mean, trans have been wanting this for a long while now. They want the same sympathy card the Jews have had for years so they can flip the power dynamics.

Strange to see the dissonance in some folks I talk to who think Israel may be committing genocide and yet are upset at the protestors for having graduations canceled. I feel like doing everything we can to end this war is more important than some ceremony.

It sounds crazy, right? It's happening at my university as well and it feels like I'm taking crazy pills. I can't fathom being more concerned about the status of a graduation ceremony than the innocent lives of people experiencing genocide.

On the other hand, I've been organizing for my school's encampment for about a week...and I am so tired, guys. I know I can't afford to be. I'm banned from campus and have charges pressed against me for protesting. But interest from the student body is dwindling as the semester is winding down for the summer. Plus, the current administration seems hell-bent on making an example out of us. I don't know. It blows my mind how some people choose to be apathetic while my mind is split into many different directions: from the livelihood of Palestinians to the possibility of me being incarcerated, it's not a good time.

I just want to say that I have all the support and respect in the world for you and what you are doing.

I have been reading your posts here and each one means a hell of a lot to me.

If you decide to step back, it is understandable.

No matter what you decide to do from this point on, I thank you for all you've done.

It's not understandable at all. Gaza are not able to take a step back. If this is all it takes for Noodle to give up then he didn't care in the first place.

Like, no one is saying you can't like, appreciate, and understand the culture of hip-hop. What I am saying is that you even trying to prove your cred just because you grew up in Philadelphia is the fundamental point of contention and offense here. Because now it's going beyond the ability to partake and appreciate, and is now about your so-called credentials which are completely irrelevant to the point at hand. "Well, I grew up in the birthplace of gangsta rap and some middle class Negro didn't, therefore I'm more authentic than they are." That's how that shit comes across.

did they actually, or did steam make that decision for them?  I wouldn't be surprised if it was steam's decision, just reasoning that they can't sell a game in regions where it legally can't be played due to PSN restrictions

the way it was delisted and then later relisted makes me think it was steam rather than sony quickly flip-flopping on their own decisions

this dumbshit take is always used so narrowly, as if it doesn't justify literally anything

"why aren't you flying to israel to protest directly to their fat jewish faces? oh you don't have money to fly there, and you have other responsibilities at home? what, like watering your plants? throw them in the trash and take out a loan and buy a plane ticket. why are you more concerned about your own financial stability than literal genocide? isn't that such a small price to pay?"

why are you posting on an internet forum when people are dying?

why are you participating in trans history week when objectively fewer trans people are dying than palestinians right now?

It was mentioned constantly at RE, but someone at RE mentioned that his experience with steam is very hands off, and they will not intervine unless is direct fraud. He was mostly a sane user.

Edit: Misread, he said it was still totally possible, he just considered Sony more in the wrong.
