It's a sad state when someone like Bush (I assume you mean Junior?) is called moderate though.

Goodness, that VC4 thread was a slaughterhouse. So much hate for a videogame on a videogame forum.
Too bad they'll miss out on a good game.

Being upset because some virtual ass is being slapped upon instead of own ass. I am joking ofcourse.

I can think of better ways to enjoy my week.

Or just playing the damn game.
But i guess acting fragile online and isolated offline is something quite a few people are into.

"False equivalency" is actually the term they use for "a sharp-witted comparison that was too on the nose for our liking".

It literally is, but since men are (in their minds) less heckled by the issues that women face (Despite the fact that yes, men suffer from the same issues under transitioning or #metoo, see Terry Crews) and are in general more often in powerful positions than women, they feel its a false equivalent.
In reality, The Names are pushing an agenda and not hiding it at all. At this point, i wish they would just quit pretending that they are something that they aren't. Just admit that there is an agenda.
Ofcourse, that will cost them members, so that kind of transparency (Besides self-proclaiming to be a transparent stronghold) is too close to home.
This kind of hypocrisy should actually be punishable by law, imo.

Males and females are clearly different and should be treated as such. Except for when they're exactly the same and should be treated equally.

Seeing a clusterfuck of a thread like that, I really have to wonder how anyone not completely indoctrinated in "the cause" could not be thinking that Ree is madhouse. I mean, another 20 odd bans for not being sufficiently offended, especially since its not that long since the infamous CDPR tweet thread where the exact same shit happened!
I know there have to be Resetera posters reading this, I'd LOVE to hear an explanation as to why you're putting up with a regime that is as demonstrably unhinged as this!

From the Kavanaugh hearing thread.
https://www.resetera.com/threads/se...y-9-27-at-10am-et.71273/page-11#post-13153448
The Democrats can be their worst enemy sometimes. What's funny is Kavanaugh is actually suppose to be a George Bush tier moderate. But now he will be just as right-wing as Clarance Thomas when this circus is over.
Keep it up. The supreme court is the most important thing ever, even moreso than the Senate and the President. Trump needs to appoint as many Judges as he mortally can.
Edit: It's not 100% Reset related, but I finally caught the latest Trump press conference and he literally BTFO all the hypocrites who call him a fascist.
It starts at 42:30
Amy Barrett will probably get in if Kavanaugh has to recuse himself. She's also considered much further right than Kavanaugh is. She's already been vetted and was one of the finalist so there's no real dirt to dig up (that anyone knows of).

I literally gave up on posting in those type of threads after I received a ban for apparently downplaying racism in the "Ciri" thread for saying that I think that the casting agents should've just put out the casting call for all ethnicities and that way avoid a "scandal" in the first place, like I even said that I would love to see an Asian play Ciri, and that I'm fine with whichever choice as long as the actress is doing a good job, but nope, 1 week ban. Now I'm more like a Khajiit just posting in the B/S/T thread and avoiding huge outrage topics completely. Mindfreak has the wares if you have the coin.

Well to be fair the mods are fairly consistent when it comes to their view of drive by troll posts. Especially ones in threads concerning sensitive topics. And that certainly sounds like it qualifies if that's all the poster said. So to me that's a reasonable assumption for someone to make.
If they actually explained why they think people should believe him after they said that then yeah that's different.

I found it more amusing that they were looking for anyone siding with Kavanaugh to rage at. I'll agree that the one poster they pointed out is probably a troll if what was quote is all they said. I didn't read through the thread to see the actual post from the pro Kavanaugh guy.

Hi. You can stop echoing and now you are allowed to have your own opinion. Welcome.
Those bans from the Valkyria Chronicles thread is insane, just blatantly insane, and I find it really scary what kind of community it will create when differing opinions on such a thing aren't allowed. I browse both Era and Gaf, Era mostly for the gaming forum since I like it, but I'm more and more feeling that I don't want to support this.
Redneckerz
Those long posts don't cover that red neck boy
The thing about VC4 and ERA's response to it: Its literally purposefully attempting to cause a scene. This is what happens directly after the NPC talked about checking out her behind andsubsequently grabbing the ladies ass:
The rest of the group cheers her for doing that. Hell, the group already premonitioned in advance to the guy that he better not do that. This is completely lost on ERA and The Names.
So what happens is that ERA looks at that scene and actually stops caring right at the moment when that NPC's hand grabs her ass, and subsequently ignores the aftermath (The consequence) of the NPC doing that gesture.
Because what does the OP say? ''Even worse, the perpetrators of these sexist acts face no punishment.''
They are deliberately ignoring consequences to the action made, thus deliberately ignoring and even lying about the context, to advance a narrative.
Its misleading AF and clearly the intent is to advance the ''We hate everything that involves women being seen as attractive'' narrative.
But when one veteran user literally points this shitty behavior out, he gets served a permban for ''User Banned (Permanent): Downplaying concerns of sexism and harassment as "outrage"; history of severe infractions.''
With the way ERA is drooling over Bowsette, they are in direct violation of their own rules. After all, they are objectifying a female character there, even when Bowsette is fictional.
That kind of irony never gets lost upon me: ERA acts in full outrage when a virtual fictional character stands up for herself when being objectified in their eyes, but it is totally okay with drooling over a virtual fictional character being placed in soft-erotic situations and which gets totally objectified by Mario/Luigi/Bowser.
The Names don't want to contribute to a transparent bonfire, they just want you to shut up and listen to the perils of pretentious fragile individuals who never came close to being in a responsible position of authority. Now these people finally can, and you see what happens.
Imaging asking how a discussing like the VC4 one is possible if you disagree with the OP or try to dismiss it as per The Names policy. Oh wait, someone did ask just that:
But that user soons finds out that common sense (Namely, actually finishing the entire scene instead of stopping it right after the assgrab moment) is not appreciated here, since the user who started that very outrage thread was showcasing ''well laid out concerns'' according to this user responding to him. Oh, and because he is new ofcourse, so obviously he does not get ''it''.
You read that correctly. That user is literally okay with the policy that The Names ban anyone that dares to view the entire scene and put it into context. Because why do that? That's abnormal. You are supposed to stop the video right after the assgrab and not be blinded by the vilifying context that comes afterwards.
You literally can't geniunely make this shit up. These folks are so incredibly dense that they incorporate a new element on the periodic table.
Or, TLDR:

Someone started a thread to ask people what the most inappropriate thing they've said it work is. One user replied with the following: -
Aaaaaand of course.....
This led to quite a few users saying that the ban was ridiculous, so a moderator turned up and locked the thread, leaving the following comment: -
Why does anyone bother posting on such a site? I don't get it. It's run by utterly humourless nutjobs.

I am going to REEEasonably assume that the GAF community can read the context from the thread, should they need to.
That's their modus operandi - When too many complaints are directed at staff:
- Temp locked: ''We are reviewing its contents and re-open it if needed.''.
- If re-opened, it says: ''Thread re-opened. Please stay on topic. Subsequent derails will be actioned accordingly/be met with bans.''
- Perma locked: ''After deliberation, we decided to keep this thread closed.''
What they don't tell you: ''...so we can ignore it, but we are marking you for a ''history of something'' as precaution.''

The hilarious part is, they are their own worst enemy. The shit people have been highlighting in this thread, it's imo exactly how someone like Trump got elected. People are HORRIFIED of what the extreme far left of communities like Resetera represent. That VC4 thread is only a tiny fraction of the insanity.
The sad thing is Era has an active VC4 thread, even if it is idiotic, which made me realize it is released on PC which led me to buy it. GAF's VC4 thread hasn't had a post since yesterday for a brand new game. "Quantity has a quality all of its own."
GAF definitely getting better over time though, but the gaming side still needs more active posters. I don't miss 3/4ths of posts being one liners like old gaf. I am hoping for a happy middle ground.

Because she is a trans woman. That is where you can draw the first mindset of "offensive". Some of them like to pretend or actually in their minds believe, this is how all women think. You know, all those porn stars, strippers, prostitutes, music video girls, actresses, models, etc., that relish in that behavior. But shhh, they have no agency there.
