if you don't vote then you don't care about your life

must be nice to be able to live that way. listen to this lego spaceman scold you about it.

So if kaylaz does go out and vote for the Democrats, they won't be assured to die when a Republican wins?

 

[benjipwns]

You should read Rules for Radicals. They take pretty much all of their marching orders from that book.

Doubtful. For one thing they'd have to have read it, or heard of it beyond a mention of a mention by someone else who tweeted about it.

They wouldn't even watch this probably:

This one just hurts my brain.

Lesbian couple from Saudi Arabia, fearing death penalty, are granted asylum in UK and declare love for each other on TV

Islam, a religion of love and tolerance.

*Calls Islam Homophobic
*Get banned for dismissing homophobia

This is the single greatest ban I have ever seen.

Like literally, is the moderator who gave out that ban literally dumber than a fucking post or just wilfully ignorant?

My (potentially controversial) stance on superhero designs in games

My favorite part of the weird sexual take on the women in the Akrham games is they definitely feel like they are designed and animated by what men think sexy women look and walk like... Which was the case.

www.resetera.com

Resetera is full of fucking idiots.

Who else do they think sexy women is suppose to be made by? Is there no such thing as heterosexuality anymore?

You would never ask a Man to describe what sexy Men is like to women, so why the fuck would they think the opposite exists?

I find Harley Quinn sexy so yea I'd say they got it right

Ben Shapiro thread. Get ready for the butthurt.

The public university I went to is paying $20,000 to transphobic racist (aka conservative) Ben Shapiro for him to speak. Why is this allowed?

The school is UCF and has very clear codes of conduct for respect of their student body. Ben Shapiro stands in opposition to many people outlined as respected parts of the community. He is a bigot who wants policy and religion to oppress minorities. He has said black people aren’t poor because...

Once again, a whole lot of noise, no actual rebuttal.

Remember this thread?

His first tag on Era as a mod was "You probably post about me on another site". It was wishful thinking as nobody did.

The Official Ask Slayven Thread / Honour Thy Slayven

Honestly, this thread is in a way to honour our comic book Mastermind Slayven...Who literally has every answer to every Comic Book question in existence. His knowledge should be acknowledged. And thus I have created this thread for us to either just thank him or ask him a comic book related...

1984 was suppose to be a novel, not a biography!

Edit: And to think that George Orwell himself was leftist, but spent his entire life opposing the police state. If he was alive today, Resetera would accuse him of being a Nazi.

What the fuck is this shit? This is the kind of shit logic that fascism begins and thrives on. This makes me sick. This is some book burning rhetoric and there is nothing liberal about this.

I like this one

It's like,

if you're being sarcastic, we'll have you for Islamophobia
if you're not being sarcastic, we'll have you for homophobia

CHECKMATE

Even worse, lots of posters skirt the line by blaming sharia law or saudi arabic specifically, as if it wasnt Islam responsible for all of it in the first place.

im sick of the double standard. if something is gay and outwardly sexual, it is celebrated. if something is hetero and outwardly sexual, it is horrible. it's just the constant complaining. im hetereo, but you don't hear me complaining about every gay bait media and calling it gross and exploitative. hetereo people in general don't do that.

yet they can do that to us, about every fucking thing, just endlessly bitch and whine. "why sexy girls?" "why tits?" it's because people are sexual? isn't that your entire fucking point? don't you want me to respect your own sexual choices? why then must you endlessly bitch that the world isn't made for you and you alone?

they demand respect from us, yet they act like petulant children when they don't get their way. it's "do as i say, not as i do" bullshit. it is annoying and tired. how about give me my hetero male fantasies and you can keep your gay stuff and we can both be happy? is that too much? apparently so.

All of thier rhetoric about objectification and sexualization of women while being massive farnsgoths when it comes to the same topic if discussing men is for one simple reason. They really hate attractive women and they are bitter as fuck about the fact they will never be one or be with one.

I'm reminded of a recent news story out of a Quebec. There was a Feminist group that seriously tried to argue banning heterosexuality.

Funding for women's group under review after call for ban on man-woman relationships

MONTREAL — The Quebec government says it will re-evaluate the $120,000 annual public funding it gives to the province’s biggest women’s federation after its…

nationalpost.com

Like, this is a perfect example of why we can't ignore politics anymore. These people wont leave us alone and are serious about taking our own rights away.

And they've already been semi-successful. Japanese games are getting banned or forced to stay in Asia only if they dare feature hetero-normative narratives.

nobody is forcing that student to go to UFC. yet he has not dropped out or threatened to withdraw his tuition.

in fact he is continuing to financially support an institution that invites known RACISTS. by continuing to go there as a student, he is directly supporting and enabling such speech.

what can he do besides complain (which is not doing anything but expecting others to)? it is easy, he can directly take personal action that would impact the school, by dropping out. he can spread awareness and organize a large scaled drop out. yet he seems too complacent, too entitled by the comfort of his student life, to take any actual action.

if he really cares about deplatforming, then organize a boycott and shut down the school. otherwise he is a hypocrite.

 

[BadBurger]

I feel silent vindication just because he was the one to ban my account over a decade ago.

That aside, trendbrew's ban reason really illustrates that you just can't have an opinion on that site.

From the little I remember, Duckroll was always an aggressive prick and for lack of care to elaborate just plain fucking stupid. Like, really dumb. It's always funny to see him get banned and/or slapped down over at Ree now. He can no longer hide behind a mod title. It's funny that barely anyone ever responds to him because everyone hates him.

He acted like a smart ass. At least that kind of treatment is something I can agree with that forum on.

 

[Cybrwzrd]

Well, the germans always want to be efficient!

It's one thing to say "I dont believe the holocaust ever happened", it's kinda like saying the earth is flat. But it's another to say "6 million seems like a lot", because that just shows some skepticism at a narrative that A. has little relevance today (does it really matter if it was only 3 million gassed to death and another couple million that just died of dysentery?) and B. is a comment made by some bambi to a Twitter poll. It ain't her polisci thesis!

Here is an alternative take, remember that most of the holocaust deaths and death camps were in eastern Europe. Russia doesn't exactly have clean hands when it came to treatment of Jews. I am sure the Nazis did their fair share of killing Jews, but the winner gets to write history. A little bit of liberal accounting by the Soviets to place all the blame on the Germans wouldn't surprise me. Stalin was an anti-Semite, and conveniently being able to solve his Jewish problem and being able to get away with it scot free by blaming all the deaths on the Germans seems quite plausible. I don't discount the 6 million figure one bit.

 

[DragoonKain]

Anti First Amendment is always accompanied by narcissism. It's the people who think their opinions are the right ones who are against it, because they won't acknowledge the subjectivity in hate speech. Who defines what is hate speech? These days people call saying that women don't have dicks is hate speech. Which 99% of the world believes btw, so I guess 99% of the world are bigots according to them. They don't want equality, they want fascism. Forced compliance to their beliefs.

And that doesn't even get into the fact that whatever happened to putting the onus on the individual to not buy into hateful rhetoric? Most people in this world aren't racist or bigots. Most people don't buy into it. How about calling out the individuals who do buy into it for being fucking gullible morons?

And I love how when they don't like someone they just throw all the usual terms at them. You can actually make a case Ben Shapiro is homophobic. Granted, he is friends with Dave Rubin who is gay, so I don't think he despises gay people, he just disagrees with their lifestyle for religious reasons. But you can actually make a case with that. But whenever they don't like someone they just toss in all the terms in there for good measure. He's racist too. Jordan Peterson, Colin Moriarty, Joe Rogan are tansphobes, homphobes, racists, xenophobes. Doesn't matter if it isn't true as long as they push that agenda!

I wonder if the forum would screech to a halt if there was no evils to complain about? In this mythical REEEEENLAND paradise, could they all just be 100% positive for days upon days?

I feel like that'd be too straightforward for them. They like the spectacle of hunting down and eliminating the wrongthinkers. Maybe brand new accounts with a scarlet letter if they appear to answer the intake questions with bias. That'll give the new Era headhunters something to look out for.

I think there is a certain segment that is smart enough to know deep down they want/need those kind of adversaries, but the majority probably really do think vanquishing the evil right wing boogyman will solve all their problems, because in reality, most of it is just them projecting their own issues.

I've been playing the game for the past few days since its English release on Steam, and boy did it surpass my expectations. I'm just over halfway thru main game and all I can say is if you like Fire Emblem or SRPG, I strongly recommend checking it out. The game does also feature women with...

Thread immediately derailed.

Things like this show you how it's possible to project a particular message when you control what's allowed. The few people who posted in favour of the game made sure to use vague language so as to avoid getting banned. The one who didn't and pointed out the derail on the second page got banned for a month.

I hope the developers never see that thread since it would give them the wrong idea about what people like in the game due to the mods doing their best to ban anyone who shows explicit support.

Only for a month? Damn. Was hoping for the perm so he could try to come back here and be instantly nuked from orbit the moment he tried to show his disgusting face.

Is it just me or has the activity on GAF more than doubled in recent months? Maybe people are finally having enough of Era.

Here is an alternative take, remember that most of the holocaust deaths and death camps were in eastern Europe.

Those lands were occupied by the Germans at the time.

While the nazis did run the concentration and extermination effort, newer investigations suggest in the further eastern occupied territories local collaborators to manage local populations, locate local jews, etc.

Stalin was a genocide in his own right, no need to pin on him Hitler's doing as well.
