Trump is absolutely going to beat Biden, because he can outflank him from the left with his (fake) populism.

I honestly don’t care about them or whatever they think.

Who the fuck are you on this moral high ground 24/7? Also I don’t view my life in skin color like they seem to do I treat everyone with respect f

another day another clueless narcissist who can only find meaning in consuming corporate media wondering why other people have children


Is there really something so satisfying to raising children? Like what percent is truly no regrets? Because by the same argument people seem pretty happy not having them.

if there was any need for evidence that we are de-evolving, the trendiness of proudly declaring that you will die alone and leave no offspring is exhibit A.
 
Back during the 2016 primaries, I remember calling it for Donald Trump to win. Not because I was a big fan of Trump. but because he was the only republican candidate who had any positive energy behind his campaign. I even called it that Trump would be in the final running for Presidential nominee. I was unsure if he was going to win.

The seething anger was truly spectacular on these boards, after Trump won. It was actually comical to me, just watching the mass meltdown. Which lead into some controversy on this board, and cause a splinter that created Resetera. It's like the volatility ended up over there.

OP talks about how some democratic candidates are not 'left leaning' enough. Go back in time by about 10-15 years, and Donald Trump would have been classified as liberal. Though, I think some people would classify Trump as a "classic liberal" these days. Trump only jumped on the Republican ticket because there was no real resistance for him to face. His only competitor was "low energy" Jeb Bush. Who folded quickly under pressure. The Republican Party didn't even like Donald Trump.

On the Democratic side, most people were pushing for Bernie Sanders as a primary candidate. But Hillary Clinton and her people sabotaged Bernie's chances and stole the primaries from him. Hillary Clinton's campaign was beyound dishonest. her campaign was just lie upon lie. Now people are calling out Socialist Bernie as not being left enough? Obama is not left enough?

Looking at the current democratic party candidates. It really is a complete gong show. They are all literally eating themselves with lunacy. It truly is a bizarre time. With the way the current trajectory is going, Trump really is poised to be a two-term president. The Democrats are too crazy to be focused on Trump. There are no Republican candidates to challenge Trump either. This is going to be an easy mode victory if nothing changes within the next few months. We're going to see 'meltdown 2.0' after Trump becomes reelected.

i am not even a strong supporter of Donald Trump. he always had a shady side to him as well. Most billionaires do. Trump seems to be a bit of a zionist. But his public record is squeaky clean. The Democrats cannot find any real dirt of Trump, and push the same old nauseating "Russian Collusion" stories. But Trump has a lot of dirt on them now.

This is not exclusive to era by any means so I'm not claiming to single them out, but I think its funny how easily people overlook their values when it means actually giving something up. A few posters here trying to rally against the tide to no avail.

Anyone can type online they support Hong Kong. You see the true person when they are asked to sacrifice. Diablo 4 will sell a shitload of copies LOL

I enjoyed it.

Funny that such things get posted on a videogame forum. Especially somewhere like ReetardEra.

A lot of their "lobbying" and "activism" against videogame publishers and developers is based around the fear that profits will be affected by bad publicity.
Take that away and you're going to end up with publishers and developers doing whatever they want and being untouchable.

Like haven't these people gone after pretty much EVERY alternative to Twitter, Facebook, Youtube etc? When they do that they try to go after their bottom line. Go down this road and you won't be able to pressure Platform X to stop giving the "alt-right" a voice because nobody will care.

Right now it's actually capitalism, and companies fear of losing money, that allows them to be who they are.
Annual reminder that NeoGAF was one of the top 5 referrers to the Hillary Clinton campaign back in 2016.

There is a dark seed in their group, the same dark seed that once grew on these boards. ERA is a political/ideological movement with the peeling-paint coat of a gaming forum.

I'm hoping people here aren't going to be bowing down to Blizzard and their best friends over in the communist regime either.

Eh, I don't care if people have kids or don't have kids. I see the merit in both for happiness. However I disagree with the intention of having kids just to keep a bloodline going or whatever. Nothing is certain and bloodlines can disappear even if you have kids from events that are out of your control. Just do it or don't if it makes you happy.

I mean there's a lot of people who legitimately cannot financially afford to have children and it's completely understandable if people choose not to because of that.

Plus there's too many fuckers on this planet anyways, if someone doesn't wanna have kids then more power to them.

edit: The thought of having a child now and having it grow into a world potentially filled with 15 billion people is pretty fucking scary really. Which is not far fetched considering the worlds population has doubled since the 70's.

Scary or not, quality of life will almost certainly be higher than it is now.
 
I really believe many of the good people I knew back on ResetEra would like the new gaf more, the exchanging of diverse ideas, and the freedom to talk openly if they gave it a chance. I have yet to meet one person that gave me serious real white supremicist/neo nazi vibes here. Some of ya'll are shit stirrers, but it becomes quickly apparent it's just for humor's sake. It's a damn shame many good people over there drank the propaganda....


Edit: I have never been banned nor warned and I still have an account over there. I choose not to log on lately because I opposed as fuck to their authoritarian ways they manage the forum and they give obviously bad faith actors the microphone unimpeded. Also I choose this place cause I support the new moderation and direction that encourages free and open discussion, even if I disagree with it at moments. I'd rather hash shit out with people I disagree with and see if we learn something along the way.

That said, I love the current thread where people are scared to share a bath with their six year old child or want to send the police to those who do.
:D


Personally I can understand not wanting to take a bath or a shower with your child, more so in this world where retards will accuse you of something to the police (see the thread as proof)

I get that it's not wrong (until a certain age) and plenty of people do it, hell my daughter has been in the shower with my wife, but it's just not for me.

Plus, my mini human follows me everywhere, can't even go to the toilet without her trying to rip the door off the hinge to see what I'm doing, so a shower in peace is a magical feeling.

"Dumbasses" for rejecting a historically dangerous ideology.

By the way, the rust belt is where the Democrats got their shit kicked in 2016. It looks like they're preparing for round 2 of handing Trump another win. I say do it, Reset fucks.

It's funny because the so-called "rust belt" is the aftereffect of Democrat union policies of the 60s and 70s and their open trade policies of the 80s and 90s come to fruition.

They literally shit on the people who suffer most from their policies, and then blame them for not voting for them anymore.

It is why they called the same "blue wall" states of 2012 "basket of deplorables" and "flyover country" in 2016. Democrats have no loyalty to their constituents. They chase votes like whores chase a dollar.

Some gems here. I just learnt a new phrase "diet racism", which sounds a lot like being totally not racist to me:

This sounds a little racist to me, teaching your kids to dislike/distrust someone just because of their race:

Oh no, sorry, my mistake:

Oh my sweet summer child, you have absolutely no idea what kind of forum you are posting on, do you? Ban or warning (if very lucky) coming in 3, 2, 1...

It's funny how this dude here makes clear that it's his Korean mother who seems like the racist one, but then proceeds to dunk on his father (who sounds like a top bloke) in his later panicked edit:

p5sghYm.png


I wonder how many of the folks in this thread would gladly report their parents to the authorities, if the political situation ever allowed for it. Reminds me of the types of attitudes towards parents and the state which prevailed in China during the Cultural Revolution.

Then, one evening, her zealous son accused her of tacitly criticising Mao. The family row spiralled rapidly: Fang called for the return of purged leaders and attacked Mao for his personality cult. "I warned her: 'If you go against our dear Chairman Mao I will smash your dog head,'" Zhang said, at times reading from his father's testimony. "I felt this wasn't my mother. This wasn't a person. She suddenly became a monster … She had become a class enemy and opened her bloody mouth."
Fang's brother begged her to take her words back, warning she would be killed. "I'm not scared," Fang replied. She tore down and burned Mao's picture.
When her husband and son ran to denounce her, "I understood it meant death," Zhang said. In fact, he added, he called for her to be shot as a counter-revolutionary. He last saw her as she knelt on stage in the hours before her death.

Oh dang, I was about to close the tab I got the diet racist picture from when I noticed this link:

I'm a relative newcomer to GAF, so have only heard rumours of the whole 2016-era, but "wonderful moderation" isn't usually a phrase folks use when talking about that particular period of time. I wonder if SENPAIatLARGE is at Reset now? I wonder if that (almost certainly) banned user has come back to GAF? Very different times indeed.

Racism - Treating people equally and judging them based on their individual merits as unique human beings.
Equality - Making conclusions about people before you get to know them based on racial reality.

I guess Era really don't care about Hong Kong by the looks of it.

Bonus points for the OP in the Overwatch thread having a HK avatar, getting called out on his hypocrisy by another poster and then just changing his avatar to something else rather than back up his stance on HK.

'Virtue signalling' gets you the brownie points, but these people are baited back in that easily by a shiny new game. NPCs through and through.

Boycott Blizzard. But this new Diablo 4 looks good.

Having actual integrity and ethical consistency is like.... difficult, so very difficult. What's the point of virtue signalling if that person misses out on fun. It's easier to rail against things that don't tickle your inner fanboy. When you are a fanboy and "socially aware" well that's when blatant hypocrisy turns into a "nuanced stance".

Kudos for the OP to change his avatar and sell out their Hong Kong support so quickly. Takes a special kind of scumbag to do that. I'm impressed.

Well the backlash did do some good because blitzchung at least got his winnings back. I wish Blizzard would fully revert the ban though instead of lessening the suspension.

Beyond that though and apologizing, I don't know what people really want Blizzard to realistically do. At the end of the day they're just a video game company.

Don’t think I can remain all that civil when talking about that sewage pit of a website. I don’t know how those people survive in the real world, if they even step out their front door at all.

I believe I got banned for refusing to hate myself enough because I’m a straight white male and refusing to agree that I’m by default a racist because of it. Also got a warning about “preaching to a PoC” when I disagreed with him that America is an irredeemable bigoted shithole. White males’ opinions aren’t allowed by those who stand so strongly against racism, apparently.

To hell with ERA. It wouldn’t be so bad if they didn’t have influence, but the fact that they attempt to destroy people’s lives, careers and reputations because it doesn’t align with their intolerant so-called “progressivism” and have succeeded, have had people smeared and companies even come out and apologize.......they can fuck right off.

Don’t sweat it, just put it behind you. They’re mostly white males too, but pretending to be other things for oppression points. It’s not a healthy environment.

Mr. Community

Era legitimately doesn't care about Jews when they aren't being attacked by white supremacists. Fucking antisemites.

Era practices a pernicious form of colorism in which all the people of earth are reduced to caricatures depending on their skin color obliterating all kind of ethnic and cultural differences. Jews have historically been (and still are) a persecuted minority but because they mostly look white Era just thinks of them as "white men".

It works like that for black people as well: in the outrage thread following a Cyberpunk 2077 trailer, one resetter was desesperatily trying to argue that the game using subtitules like "dey" was racist since it implied black people don't know how to speak English. Some posters had to teach them that in regions that have a creole as their own language "dey" is not a contraction and neither is a result of low linguistic skills but rather "dey" is the word for "they" in that language.

At least some of them aren't willing to suck Blizzard's dick. But we'll see if they forget all about it once the games are out
