i get the point being made here, but reaaaalllly don't gotta link to anything that trash ass transphobe has to say, he's absolutely vile

Geez....people here have straight up sold out.

How about not platforming fucking awful transphobic bigoted people?

By "transphobe" and "awful transphobic bigoted people" they mean a journalist who supports transitioning children and believes all trans people's claims are valid such as that trans women are women. He just refuses to not question blatantly terrible "scientific" claims.

He didn’t agree with me that one time, so he is a fascist Zionist transphobe.

I'm not sure if it's harder for people to conceal the shitty parts of themselves these days, or if there are more deal breaking issues in the world than there used to be.

there are more performative morons who consider issues to be deal breaking, rather than realizing that actions matter a hell of a lot more than opinions and a liberal ought to be able to be friends with a conservative

also literally everyone is cancelable for something whether you know it or not (for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God)

This is why it's important that he receive monthly, or maybe weekly, rape and murder threats from trans people. To show others they need to stay in line.

Watch the white liberals come in with their "all violence is wrong" tone policing as if marginalized people should have to just accept people holding morally incorrect views.

The hate for Singal is pretty funny. The worst thing they got against him is that he just highlights scientific discourse/results they don't like and yet they consider him one of the transphobic anti christs next to Rowling. 
One time he called into that Majority report podcast and it instantly turned into embarrassing mudslinging with the hosts just personally attacking him and ignoring the actual topic.

Haziq is banned? They better unban him NOW.

I actually thought the "basic human decency" line was just a ResetERA.com one, now I keep seeing it all over Twitter.

If you ever want to see how disjointed American media is just watch a Breaking Points then a Sam  Seeder report on the same subject. The biases are wild.

Maybe that is not a good way to see things.

Not surprised that companies are pulling back DEI efforts, it was mostly lip service and purely for optics. People that actually believed that it was somehow business critical were sorely mistaken, it was a zero rate intereste phenomenon, and that no longer applies

I work for a megacorp with a DEI team and it has been a sincere effort for the last 4 years. I do worry about the program over the long term, though, since the majority of senior exec team is older white men…

 

I don’t doubt your sincerity, I doubt your competence given your posts.

Did the girl has really done anti semitic stuff? Because if she didn’t is funny how RE can manage to sound like bigots in a topic against bigots.

The first ban was unjust. I just KNOW it.

Getting a Palestinian to celebrate the Munich Olympic games seems like an all around ill conceived idea and I'm surprised either party was happy to do it to begin with

[Boredfrom]

Holy shit, these comments:

I forgot adidas is a german company so it tracks. Germany in general have been all in on supporting israel's genocide.

I wonder if Hollywood will make many movies about the genocide that is being committed against the Palestinian people…

It'll star a courageous IDF soldier that saw the error of his ways after he killed a few children, raped a few people, and realized, after buying some new adidas shoes that he's participating in a genocide.

So he becomes the white saviour, does some WW84 shit, steps on front of a bulldozer and prevents one house from being demolished.

He is both celebrated and hated. And is then killed in a drone strike (that also takes out a school and hospital).

should be treated as a pariah state honestly, its disgusting how much evil shit they get away with and how criticism gets stifled and distorted

If they weren't doing anything wrong then why did they have an alt.

Half-Palestine, google says that her nationality is American. And it sounds like it was not a problem until recently. 

Designed for athletes in the 70's, the SL shoe was created during a pivotal era for athletics and adopted by change-makers of the time. adidas Originals first released the SL silhouette in 1972.

The SL 72 and SL 80 models release worldwide on December 2nd 2019 in two colorways each.

I dunno if the model has said some vile shit or something, it just mentions that she donates to Palestine relief efforts (that are probably compromised by Hamas, but I doubt most people donating care to check and is not what the Israel government has said about her).

It sounds like Israel government being just assholes.

They should make a list of what countries they think are treated as pariah states.

Then explain how Israel isn't: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_Nations_resolutions_concerning_Israel

Is this why Kyuuji is planning on fleeing there now that Labour has taken office?

[Boredfrom]

Oh they fucked up. They will regret dropping her. It's a different climate these days and this is a massive L. Anti-Palestinian racism is on the come up but it's still vile like any other form.

Oh, so we admit that Palestine support is in all time high and not ignored or abandoned. 

Imagine what could you accomplish if the discourse didn’t devolve to bitching about using Zionism.

[benji]

Like Polident says, they don't actually believe anything. That Scuffed guy has been posting for nearly a year about the global plot to exterminate all Palestinians, now he's claiming that one sportswear company dropping an unknown athlete over something nobody has heard about is seriously going to harm a multinational corporation that's one of like three companies that dominate the global sponsorship field.

I forget if I posted about this before, but I tend to connect this stuff to the culture of the Wii/PS3/X360 era. Nintendo was struggling to compete directly with the edgy gamer audience, so they - as a totally cynical business move, mind - decided to pivot and grab at an audience that hadn't been reached before with things like the DS' Touch Generations or the Wii series.

They weren't using the words "diversity", but when Nintendo says that they're reaching for audiences that haven't been captured any more, they're essentially describing that in a capitalistic context. When gamers mocked the Wii and the like as being stuff for your grandma, they're still effectively gatekeeping, saying that people who don't fit the typical gamer profile are a threat against their interests.

Now, if they actually were out to defeat gamers, the gamers would have lost. You'd have to put the 360 and PS3 together to compare to the success of the Wii, and after that mobile took over as the most common gaming platform. But nobody actually wanted to take anything away from the traditional gamer audience, so instead those games just kept on coming, they just ended up turning away from the boy's club imagery and captured a larger, broader market.

I think you are misremembering some stuff, like the main reason why third party game devs still went to Sony and Microsoft over Nintendo: Their game didn’t sell in that console.

So in a way, just because companies needed to heavily invest in a game for a Wii without being sure they get any return for their efforts, IT WAS taking games from the hobbyist game audience.

[Boredfrom]

I anything, Nintendo’s history is the example of gatekeeping and taking stuff away because the need to appeal to “everyone”. 

[benji]

They weren't using the words "diversity", but when Nintendo says that they're reaching for audiences that haven't been captured any more, they're essentially describing that in a capitalistic context. ... But nobody actually wanted to take anything away from the traditional gamer audience, so instead those games just kept on coming, they just ended up turning away from the boy's club imagery and captured a larger, broader market.

Except that you oppose capitalism, so the idea of expanding the market is verboten and you see it as a zero sum game that requires the destruction of the Other. 

Also, Nintendo didn't capture a larger or broader market, they captured a different market. One that didn't buy software and so couldn't sustain the traditional gaming market which is why all those people immediately left the console market after buying Wii and playing the one, maybe two, games on it they ever bought. Which is also why that market is almost entirely catered to on the mobile market now and so the console market has no need to cater to them essentially nullifying the very argument you're trying to make here.

The problem for the console market isn't lack of diversity, it's the fact that technology has allowed the mobile (and arguably the PC) market to catch up too much too fast. The special factor of a console is diminishing. (Microsoft seems aware of this more than anyone, likely because they had the company wide freakout about mobile already when they thought it would kill Windows. And that was really just a rehash of the company wide freakout they had about the internet earlier.)
