Reeeeeeeeeeeee! Youtube restores Shirrako's channel and Resetera is freaking out.

It's 2016 all over again. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

They are legitimately hurting people who were my friends and it bothers me intensely.

I suppose it's lucky that I got out when I did. My life has done a 180 over the last few months since severing my connections with these communities and I am happier and healthier than I have been in years. Knowing the suffering my old friends are dealing with is difficult but I can not sacrifice myself for people who aren't aware that their comforting blanket is slowly strangling them...

That's great to hear.
Advice in these areas needs to be helpful...open and based on medical facts and not used to push someone's personal agenda or crusade

Many of these people have simply fallen in as they followed the sheep ....hopefully threads like these can not only serve as a way to vent about this but also shine a light on that area

If I were not so thoroughly and utterly screwed by the community on a deeply personal level I probably wouldn't have woken the fuck up and gotten off my ass to start working out, eating healthy, and learning music.

I hate to say it but it really needs to be something people notice by themselves. After all, anyone who says anything negative about the site is evil, remember?

Dont get me wrong there are some great genuine nice and helpful people but some of the "names" or so called important that are meant to be the captains of the ship have put up some absolutely wrong and factually wrong advice which would not only put someone at risk but others as well.

If they truly wanted to help, they wouldn't stand by and let the mods/admins/"names" push incredibly harmful information and falsify scientific reports.

So
Resetera links are banned on Twitter now
That's probably for the best. The members on the site actively steered me away from good advice when I was suicidal and in desperate need of help.

I've never been unhappier than when I was trying to figure out why so many people on the site consistently acted so strangely. Let us hope deplatforming works.

Jessmo24 is poking the hornet's nest. He disagrees with feminism. How long before his account gets nuked by the Reset horde?

And killing Feminists in a video game is a hate crime. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Why does Feminism care so much about pixels?
If they care so much about violence against women, why not talk about the muslim acid attacks in Britain?
https://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-wales-40674046/easy-target-acid-attack-fear-among-cardiff-muslims

Or the female genital mutilation in Africa
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_genital_mutilation

But the SJW's on Resetera think Red Dead Redemption is the biggest pressing issue of our time. And they use that to say "all men are evil".

Seriously, how is that place not shutdown?

They are now calling for the assasination of Tucker Carlson do to him being a Nazi.

This is just insane.

I'm not surprised. They are basically a hate site at this point. I think when they started doxxing game developers is when they finally crossed the line and got Twitter's attention though. Doxxing is strictly prohibited at places like that for reasons that should be quite obvious to anyone who is sane.

They don't even realise that they're the leftist equivalent of Stormfront. At least Stormfronters will admit what they are.

THR: Fox News Host Tucker Carlson's Home Targeted By Anti-Fascist Protesters
If you couldn't guess, I'm the user posting as "SpiritUnion."

Straight up calls for doxxing, violence, and people saying they're happy people are finally being honest about desiring political violence.
I had no idea "mob" had such a negative connotation to it. It's a short easy to type word that means "a crowd of people," but there's no coming back from even imaginary sleights against these people anymore, it seems.

I don't understand what's happening to the world. This is extremism happening right in front of everyone, and they bulldoze the people trying to call a time-out.
It's... It's insanity.

And, on a slight tangent. Is there any site rule that ERA will actually enforce absolutely, or is it as politically motivated on a case-by-case basis as it seems?
There's tons of alt accounts over there - many that even use the same names and avatars as their original accounts, like "Dennis8K," or accounts who actively mock the fact that they're circumventing the moderation system, like "Ban Puncher."

So your saying reee needs more bannings???

Pretty sure they are banning more users then they are getting new members....maybe they are just trying to lower greenhouse emissions by reducing server load...did I spin that right??

Speaking of which. I saw you intervene and basically get harrassed for it.

Then I saw you catch a ban for not joining the mob.

What's going on over there isnt legal and needs to be reported.

Did you report any posts in that thread?

At least two.
Apparently what I said deserves a permanent ban, but "doxxing" is a 1 Day ban, and Puck Beaverton, the user saying "No, I meant shooting" apparently doesn't even warrant a warning.
And then of course there's what I've said about how ERA apparently only enforces the alt account rule on a case by case basis.
IE. Users who are obviously alts like "Dennis8K," or who flat-out mock the moderation system, like "Ban Puncher."

There' aren't any rules on ERA, it feels like. At least, the written rules aren't the real rules.
The only real rule seems to be "Don't go off-message and don't get in the way of the mob," and this time I am using "mob" with a negative connotation.

You have two options it seems.

1. Go along with the mob. Demand heads on a pike.
2. Question the mob, discuss the tactic, etc.. Be met with douchey responses. Be belittled. Be banned.

There is almost zero acceptance of an opposing opinion.

Even if you fucks are labeled "Nazis" now..thank god I can at least hold a discussion with you bastards.

I just can't believe literally being called "evil" for what I said, and then not a single person came to my defense, but rather people agreed, doubled down, and cheered at my being banished.

This is extremism.

Hold on, you're telling me that the rules are applied inconsistently to different users? Like... some users are more equal than others...? :pie_thinking:

It's not like you were trying to hide who you were or anything. You even had the same avatar, even if the name was slightly different.

Right, I wasn't going to go out of my way to hide who I was, because that just makes it more obvious that I'm "breaking the rules," and I didn't think it was a "seriously" enforced rule, again, because of examples like "Dennis8K" and "Ban Puncher," who are obvious alts and who even outright state and mock the fact that they're circumventing previous bans through alts.

I don't want to obfuscate who I am. I try to use the same username or as close as possible everywhere I go to keep my identity consistent and my integrity intact.

I was reporting violent posts for the exact same reason and got banned as well. It basically puts a target on you, they look at your account, and see similarities to one they already banned. And bloop, you're gone, alt-account.

You'd probably be safer from a ban posting a picture of yourself waving a Confederate flag.



Who is Valdestine and how would he know that? It would be interesting to see what goes on in there.

In real life I probably wouldn’t be able to find a single person who thinks harassing Tucker Carlson and his family at their home is acceptable. On ERA we have page after page almost entirely filled with people supporting it and cheering that type of behavior on. Truely a group of brainwashed assholes.

Are you being sarcastic with that last line? I can’t tell.

I’m not in favour of deplatforming unless there is explicit incitement of violence, so, I guess I support it here...?

Its sarcasm. And I agree the buck stops at direct messages of asking for/doing/directing others to commit violence.

Ree has now taken that step.

Even silencing members seeking go calm things.
As it stands now its clear the site has devolved into some odd leftist recruitment/breeding ground for extremists.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news.

I don't think ResetEra is anywhere near collapsing or exploding or self destructing, or whatever else people are saying in this thread.

From my personal experience, I believe the prominent attitudes on Era are common and celebrated among people who've never even used an internet forum. Mostly younger people (teens to mid/late 30s).

In the internet era, when your drive to achieve recognition among your peers is stronger than your desire to think for yourself, this is where we get to.

Wow.

Orayne: "It would be illegal to wait until nobody is home and just chuck a big ol Molotov cocktail at the place. I sure hope nobody gets the satisfaction of watching this shithead's miniature McMansion burn down, because that would be against the law."

SlickShoesRUCrazy: "The lives of people like carlson and any other public trumper should be hell until they are 6 feet under."

bottledfox: "His life in danger from all these people saying mean words at him." - funny how the wrong choice of word in a tweet is such a big fucking issue then

Orayne again: "People like him should live in a state of constant fear for the rest of their lives, at a minimum."

Alternade: " Oh well. If his house burns down I'm sure he can afford another "

RedMercury: "We can't worry about what the other side thinks, they are lost" - actually you totally should consider what the other side thinks, that's how a functioning political system works - you negotiate with the other side and come to a position acceptable to both sides.

Bandage: " Yeah it would be such a shame if a nazi got "popped". " - in response to a post where it's quite clear that popped means killed.


I don't particularly love Fox News, and Tucker Carlson may well be a cunt, no idea, but he presumably has a family, and people near him who care about him, just as Donald Trump does, just as Hillary does, just as Ted 'cuntface' Cruz does. No we shouldn't be fucking harassing any of them, in fact we shouldn't be harassing people full stop. I really do find the talk there quite fucking disturbing.
