Jordan Peterson is a fascist, and showing people his work in a positive light is spreading fascism.

Why are self-described hardcore leftists even keeping track of Jordan Peterson? I don't know a thing about him other than the viral twitter video where he starts crying.

Just a reminder that FNAF Creator Scott Cawthon donated to Donald Trump and multiple other anti-LGBTQIA+ Republicans (such as Mitchell McConnell, who Scott gave 5,000 USD and Tulsi Gabbard who Scott gave 2,500 USD). You can find that full list here.

There are still people making the game that aren’t that guy though. Sucks for them I suppose to spend the last year making something and have it get dismissed. I understand the fuck Scott part and I agree with it. But fuck the people who aren’t Scott that made the game?

Btw, the more I play the more I like it. I highly recommend to check it out. The mask mechanic actually attracts an anomalous entity to your location so it has a good balance between usefulness and danger.

Just as with a certain unnamed magic game, going "well I guess fuck the devs then"  isn't it.  Scott is literally getting money from this, and using it directly to give to people that want trans people dead.

I don’t disagree with the premise that buying the game is indirectly supporting Scott’s views but I guess I was in the position that, yes I don’t give a shit about him and it’s fucked how he supported republicans with his money (also I don’t know the details on his contributions outside what is linked above on those individuals so I’m probably ignorant here) but isn’t shopping at any retailer that sells FNAF merch also indirectly supporting him? Target and Walmart, for example, sell all those toys. They are implicit, are they not? Sony for platforming the game and securing it as a timed exclusive? Featuring it in their SoP/Experience showcases. They seem implicit as well. All these companies benefit from the brand and games. So by their own lack of action and clear platforming of the games/toys they are showing their support.

And just to clarify my position-  I just wanted to talk about the DLC and am in no way disavowing or trying to diminish the suffering that trans people are experiencing. I like horror games, I don’t like or care or even think about this Scott guy at all.

This is such a weird response. You have direct evidence of Scott Cawthon’s previous actions which easily harmed a multiple groups of people such as the entire LGBTQ+ community along with POC, considering you know, he’s donated to the likes of Donald Trump. On top of that, he also had direct hands on with the movie, which is coming later this year and is something that he is also making money off of along with the current FNAF games. Yet, you directly push it off with a “but other people making the game so it doesn’t really matter, btw I really like it!”? Not cool, man.

Getting groceries from Wal-mart is not equivalent in anyway to buying fnaf games or merch or anything from the ip...no.

Western imperialism is always the funniest thing to hear when it comes to forcing an unconditional surrender of a psychotic facist imperial power in Japan. Looking at how everything happened and what the alternatives were, all I can do is shrug.

The deaths at Hiroshima and Nagasaki are on the cretinous men in charge of Japan at the time not on Truman, not on Oppenheimer. This logic may be dangerous when applied in other contexts but given the military capabilities of the time (no long range precision-guided munitions), and the political realities, I feel it is perfectly reasonable. Japan still held large swathes of Asia. If I was Truman I could not live with myself ordering a conventional invasion of Japan, killing potentially 100's thousands of my own, completely innocent young men knowing I had the atomic option and did not use it. There were no good options, every option had unacceptable consequences and I think it is very easy to argue that other options would have potentially been far worse in terms of the human cost once you get over the psychology power in our imagination of the atomic bomb.

I admit my judgments clouded because I had 2 family members, who passed away in the last decade, but that had their youth stolen by the IoJ.

Ngl, I don't care about the pity party Japan gets with the nuclear bombing. First of all, let me make it clear, no one deserves to die by radiation burns. But then, no one deserves to die by burning to death in the firebombings. And certainly no one deserves to die by the rapes, mutilation, laboratory experiments, and acts of horrific tortures the empire of Japan inflicted on others. My issue with all the discourse about how the nuclear bombing should not have been done is that it's so far removed from the context of the war. Like I am sorry, but the Hiroshima and Nagasaki deaths were nothing special. Each firebombing campaign was already killing people in similar amounts of tens of thousands, why would the decision makers care at that point when they are concerned with saving their own soldiers and allies. Every single decision in the war was already weighing the lives of tens of thousands against other tens of thousands. And frankly, as someone of Korean descent, I am okay with weighing it against Japanese fascists, sorry.

Yeah, because an invasion of the islands and maybe a guerilla war of indefinite length would have been war crime free.

Ok but have you looked at ALL his teachings?

Yes. I assume you are alluding to his fight against the Canadian government to legislate speech related to the transgender phenomenon. I don't see him eye to eye on that all the time but I've never seen him debate from his stance and he's fairly transparent and respectful when challenged or questioned regarding this.

This does not make someone a fascist.

I have been trying to get my brother off these apps to no aval. Despite spending thousands of dollars on car maintenance, and us doing his tax return where he basically made below minimum wage when factoring in the cost and he still does not want to quit it. He thinks that having a job where he can stop whenever he wants is worth the awful pay. It's frustrating. And what's really pissing me off the most is that he has a STEM degree in engineering. I can't make this shit up.

Sounds like he did when he said we.

The worst is shopping groceries for someone, taking that shit upstairs to a fancy beach house or condo and then they don't tip.
and the app pays like 10$ for shopping 100s of items, driving and taking it up to them

Yes. I assume you are alluding to his fight against the Canadian government to legislate speech related to the transgender phenomenon.

Okay good he's gone. Jesus that was an unwelcome surprise.

You embody exactly why this game is such an easy pass.

Did you miss "the Transgender phenomenon"? Holy moley, this guy is supposedly a mentor to inner-city kids. Not that I believe that for even a second because chuds love to use that kind of stuff to try and deflect.

I'm not saying legitimate transpeople don't exist; but what else are you supposed to call it when Ree claims that you don't need to experience gender dysphoria to be transgender and the fact that there's a small (but growing) amount of young people that are "de-transitioning"? Or the fact that some people on the site exist between being transgender and non-binary, then are their biolgoical sex depending on whatever they feel like?

I'm not surprised by this. We had a Chinese geography teacher in school. She was dead nice and that until anyone mentioned Japan. Then things got very dark. She'd go off on weird rants about Nanking, and how the Japanese were all evil, violent criminals who didn't wash and lived like dogs. This was usually followed by a lot of muttering about how they'd get theirs one day. I'm pretty certain I heard her call them a bunch of fish fuckers once.

Dude who got shamed to change his Manchin avatar

I know I say it a lot by I drive rideshare, have for months, and the chance for a tip is like 15% to 20%. That means 2 out of 10 drivers will tip. It is annoying but you just roll with it, technically a tip is not required. 5.0 rating, offer a gentle ride, keep my car clean, and converse only if the passenger seems willing.

Only one time did I ever give bad reviews to passengers for not tipping and that was in the middle of a rainstorm when I was trying to meet a quota. 10 soaked passengers in my car, some with mud, 0 tips. All got bad reviews. Shrug.

Well actually that's not completely true. If I get the same person a couple of times and never get a tip, I eventually give 3 stars so I stop getting paired with them. Many drivers do this.
