"Y'all need to stop quantifying genocides"

*After counting up the genocides to dozens"

Has been a while since Era and trans activists went with the "stages of genocide " meme.

A number of posters actually dismiss the idea that you have to be part of a coalition first before the coalition will pay attention to your demands.

I for one want mods to be respcted on here.

[Propagandhim]

The guy is simply pointing out explicitly, without equivocation, each and every genocide that Era agrees with, all for the sake of harm reduction.  And he gets told to not count them by the admin.  Um, okay.

[benji]

I guess this is why they unstickied the "It's 2024, and yes, it's still a trans genocide - An FAQ and what you can do about it today and beyond except voting because fuck off you can eat the hell out of me" thread.

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

Ukrainian and Trans genocide mean nothing to HamasEra. I'm so tired..

Constructive thread worthy? No, of course not. B-dubs telling Nep to eat his ass though? Worthy.

So, like every political campaign across the globe, the campaign kicked out a protestor disrupting a rally?

I'm not sure what makes this particular instance news worthy? Especially when Trump is on record advocating for violence to anyone who interrupts his rallies.

The issue being protested is very important. I just don't see how this ejection becomes a news story within itself.

What will Harris defenders on this forum say when she wins and lets Israel continue to bomb kids in refugee camps? Oh wait, I already know. Nothing. And yet if she loses, you will blame Muslims for not voting for her while she openly embraces war criminals who ruined lives for millions of Arabs and Muslims.

She is just as complicit as Biden and people trying to guilt trip Muslims into voting for her should go screw themselves.

Sony did commit some form of next genocide with a $699 system, though.

Saying "fuck Israel" to random Jews whose beliefs you know nothing about is 100% antisemitic, and the fact that anyone here claims otherwise is because antisemitism has been allowed to run rampant on Era.

[ComeAgain]

A ban for calling out the extreme amount of antisemitism. Brilliant stuff.

[kaleidoscopium]

There is a Palestinian member of my community that I know personally who has had over 100 members of his extended family exterminated in Gaza. How am I supposed to vote for Harris, look him the eyes, and say "it could be worse"?

One of those rare instances where racism is punished harder than criticising the mods.

Was it ever explained why they hate Zack Snyder? They seem to think he's some right wing boogeyman. I mean if you don't like his movies that is fine, everyone has an opinion, but to frame him as some ultra conservative is just strange

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zack_Snyder#Political_views

A lot of people get generalized over something a simple search can show is not true or might be not as black and white to their idiotic brains.

Because he made DC movies, which must therefore be the opposite of the MCU. And anything I don't like must be full chud.

I thought they hated him for Sucker Punch. Pretty sure they all loved it until the HERzbollah thread went full jihad after someone on YouTube made a 8-hour video about how misogynistic the movie was.

Wikipedia has a good summary of some of the stupid:

Depiction of women
Sucker Punch also drew criticism for its depiction of women. Several critics described the film as misogynistic and others expressed concern over its treatment of sexual violence.[100] Monika Bartyzel of Moviefone writes: "The women of Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch are not empowered. Though they are given vicious snarls, swords and guns, the leading ladies of Snyder's latest are nothing more than cinematic figures of enslavement given only the most minimal fight. Their rebellion is one of imaginative whimsy in a heavily misogynistic world that is barely questioned or truly challenged."[101] Michael Phillips of The Chicago Tribune stated that "Zack Snyder must have known in preproduction that his greasy collection of near-rape fantasies and violent revenge scenarios disguised as a female-empowerment fairy tale wasn't going to satisfy anyone but himself."[102]

St. Petersburg Times critic Steve Persall found that the most offensive fact about the film was that it "suggests that all this objectification of women makes them stronger. It's supposed to be reassuring that men who beat, berate, molest and kill these women will get what's coming to them. Just wait, Snyder says, but in the meantime here's another femininity insult to keep you occupied."[103] A.O. Scott of The New York Times described the film as a "fantasia of misogyny" that pretends to be a "feminist fable of empowerment" and found that the film's treatment of sexual violence was problematic and believes the target audience as a whole is in favour of it.[104] Peter Debruge of Variety argued that the film is "misleadingly positioned as female empowerment despite clearly having been hatched as fantasy fodder for 13-year-old guys" and that the fact that the young women in the movie are "under constant threat of being raped or murdered" makes the film "highly inappropriate for young viewers."[105]

However, Betsy Sharkey of The Los Angeles Times suggested that the film neither objectifies nor empowers women, and is instead a "wonderfully wild provocation – an imperfect, overlong, intemperate and utterly absorbing romp through the id that I wouldn't have missed for the world."[106] In a retrospective article about the critical reception of Sucker Punch, James MacDowell questioned the alleged misogyny of the film, arguing that it does not in fact aim to offer female empowerment, but is instead "a deeply pessimistic analysis of female oppression", because it makes clear that, "just as men organize the dances, so do they control the terms of the fight scenes; in neither do the women have true agency, only an illusion of it."[107][108]

Writing in a separate piece for The A.V. Club months after giving the film a "C−" grade, Nathan Rabin concluded, "Depending on whom you ask, Snyder set out to make either the ultimate sexist masturbatory fanboy fantasy or the ultimate critique of sexist masturbatory fanboy fantasies. He failed spectacularly on both counts, but in true Fiasco form, there's something fascinating and even strangely majestic about that failure."[109]

Scott Mendelsohn of The Huffington Post called the film a "bitterly sad and angrily feminist mini-epic", and said that while it presents scenes of "matter-of-fact lechery from men towards women that is an accepted norm in our society, both then and now", it "earns kudos for daring to actually be about something relevant and interesting. It is actually very much about the sexualization of women in popular culture, rather than just using those tools to make pointless exploitation fare."[110] Patrick Bromley of DVD Verdict posited that Sucker Punch uses the "prism of popular culture to say something about the roles that women find themselves forced into—and not just in the fantasies of geeks and fanboys". Bromley further judged that the film is "about fighting a losing battle. About using every tool at your disposal, be it sexuality or physical strength or wit or the ability to band together to fight a common enemy—the tool of Sisterhood—and about how that still isn't enough."[111]

In retrospect, Snyder said: "I'm always shocked that it was so badly misunderstood. I always said that it was a commentary on sexism and geek culture. Someone would ask me, 'Why did you film the girls this way?' And I'd say, 'Well you did!' Sucker Punch is a fuck you to a lot of people who will watch it."[112] Double Toasted criticized this statement in a retrospective review, claiming the film had not aged well in recent years.[113][114]

He also made 300, which they all loved, until someone on Twatter said it was anti-brown people and was a fascist wet dream (who or what exactly did they think the Spartans were?).

[benji]

The 300 film isn't remotely as glorifying as the comic or Frank Miller's general thoughts on anything.

[Greatness Gone]

Same reason why they instantly forgave James Gunn for several years worth of pedophile/tr00n/rape a lesbian until she's straight jokes.

I used to go to this Korean buffet in Torrance, California called Gen (hard g). A few times we grabbed the late lunch buffet and ended up staying until close. We’d get home and I would tell my wife to go watch an episode of Love Island because I’m about to commit a 30 minute ‘GENocide’ in the toilet. Always got a hoot and she got about half an episode.

Been said many times before how 300 is framed as a story told to rouse up the troops. A spartan mythologizing what would’ve been relatively ordinary battles into super warriors fighting back against literal monsters. Like Starship Troopers, it’s cool to take it at its surface, and many certainly did, but the subtext is not that subtle. Also a little funny how the far right criticism is the film injects too much feminism with Gorgo. Upset about Leonidas seeking his wife’s advice.

The worst thing to spawn from it is the popularity of crossfit.
