Yeah I can't tell if I'm more excited for the new consoles next year or the meltdown of the 2020 election. The meltdown on GAF in 2016 the night of the election and days following was already epic and I'm assuming all those people are over at Reeeeeeeeee now

Looking forward to seeing the reaction by Reee regarding the update from Billy Dee Williams.


Update – December 4th: Williams has since clarified that he was simply saying he was “talking about men getting in touch with the female side of themselves.” “Gender fluid” isn’t even something that was in his vocabulary. “Well, first of all, I asked last night. I said, ‘What the hell is gender fluid?’ That’s a whole new term.”

Ban was the wrong word to use, since I don't think she could legally get away with that, but making damn sure white people aren't welcome is something she should be within her rights to do.

The user that replied to this post to question their racism got banned but not the person that wrote this post supporting bigotry.

Wild.

I doubt you will see many of the people go back to that thread now.

I think they actually banned people for suggesting what Billy actually meant.

Fake News.

I am the poster who went to DPRK and posted the thread on GAF.

Awesome trip, would go again

EDIT: It’s fun to look at the thread in retrospect. The wrong think inquisition dog piling on me got me to backpedal. Sounds like another place on the internet!

I didn't know you went too!!!

You are a cool dude I remember on the Mega Drive Mini thread and no offense to that guy (and you of course) who went to NK as well but seems to think Trump is Dangerous.

I don't judge you for it at all. As long as you enjoyed it, that is fine and it is good to see you are safe unlike that guy who was killed. :(

Their approach to bigotry is fascinating.

You CAN be an overt bigot over there and it's perfectly fine as long as the target is someone they will allow you to be prejudiced against.

We are talking outright hatred based on race that is tolerated because there is a rationalization that says "it's not racism because..."

The thing is though that bigots are generally not very nice people. They aren't fun to be around and they are best avoided.
Doesn't really matter if they reject the label "racist" they are still fucking awful people.

I think that's probably one of the most toxic aspects of that entire community.
You can be a terrible person with awful and abhorrent views but they will allow it because they think dodging the label "Racist" makes it OK.
So you've got vulnerable and impressionable people interacting with horrible toxic assholes and telling each other it's all good as they go deeper and deeper.

If I were having people over and they pulled out these talking points then they'd be getting booted right out of my house.
"But it's impossible to be racist to white people" OK So? You are still a horrible bigoted asshole, why would I put up with that?
So you've avoided the label "Racist". Well done. Still a hateful, toxic, miserable human being to have to be around.

I feel sorry for possible good people over there getting sucked in and brainwashed by this garbage.
They are the mirror image of the hate groups they claim to be taking a stand against.
Just they have a "trick" that they use to say "I'm not racist".
So just a hateful bigot then? As if that's much better.
It's sad to see.

They subscribe to a very subjective view of bigotry. There is no objective understanding to what are the core traits of what makes bigotry in the forms of sexism, racism, etc.

Basically, bigotry is a point of view. If a group is marginalized and without perceived power, it is impossible for that group to be bigots to the group in power. It's justice.

It's how they rationalize it as to not be confronted with the inherent hypocrisy of their standpoint. Those that see it for what it is further rationalize it as "the end justifies the means." If really backed into a corner, they will tell the person of their privilege to even make this argument and explain they don't have the time and luxury to adhere to ideals of absolute anti-bigotry.

The root is all the same though. It's tribalism. It always has been.

I'm surprised to see a few users trying to get the mods to reverse the ban.

That ban should be immediately reversed if they had any kind of self awareness. But if they had self awareness that wouldn't have been a ban in the first place.

I do love seeing their new transpositive rules in action though. They're going to drive away so many 'normies' it's not even funny. Okay it's kinda funny.

Also, I too cannot wait for 2020. PS5/Xbox Next.. Presidential Election.. along with who knows what woke thing will be foisted next.. GLORIOUS CONTENT!
 
Love how they tolerate spousal abuse and BDW's outdated views as long as the person is supporting their right to have their dick cut off. It's pretty easy to see what group is running things over there. I don't think that a person should forever live in the shadow of who they were but the folx on era usually never forget or forgive when it comes to things that aren't kissing their ass. That thread says more than a lot and it's only like 3 pages.

I like Boyega just fine, but seriously, what else does he have going on to where he can act like he's too good to take that job?

And boyega's ego on this is hilarious
when you want to call a black man "uppity" but you're on Era, so you have to do so using your favorite corporation/brand as a shield

This was pretty evident even from his original comment. He was just saying he has always had a feminine side. Most men do. But I was stunned when his wikipedia entry replaced all his pronouns with "they".

Like naw, get the fuck out with that lol

I think everyone outside the Reeeosphere could see what he actually meant, I was actually surprised so many other outlets ran with the idea too without ever clarifying with him.

Just checked wikipedia and was disappointed to see the "he" and "him" pronouns. I'm asking sincerely - were you joking about this? Because if that actually happened, that's fucking hilarious.

Yeah, "get in touch with your feminine side" has been a phrase I've heard since as long as I can remember.

I still can't understand the use of "they" or "them" as identifiers.

Why would someone want to identify as plural? OK, maybe if skyzophrenic.
I'm probably just not "woke" enough... thankfully
Well, you'd want to be called "they" too if you considered yourself a man-girl or a girly-man.

Instead of making people guess which side of the fence you're on, just accept the plural label of dual genders, and you have every base covered whether it's two forms of sexual and genders you identify with or a wholesale case of 24 types.
 

It's common in Japan that women voice male characters (most prominent Son Goku). Black characters wouldn't have a voice in German dubs if white actors couldn't do the job. And here we are and the social justice mob demands that black characters can only be dubbed by black voice actors. Their current target: developer Chucklefish and its game Wargroove.

My opinion: the only important part in voice acting is the voice. 🤷‍♀️ There is no 'black voice', any such remarks were called racist in the past and they'd be racist now. You choose the best voice for the job, the end. There's neither malicious intent nor racism at play.

I hope Chucklefish don't bow to these assturds and defend their choice. From what I've heard Wargroove is a great game. Don't let anyone harass them over something this stupid.
