That and go further back in time to Lesbos to get Sappho's autograph and try to get some snapshots of her now lost work, this isn't a silly thing, I'd love to meet her and save her work.

I don't really have anything else to say than Jesus wept.

You’d think given Era staff’s documented history of acephobia they’d be more wary of talking shit about the Pope.

Interesting, I had no idea TERFwarts Legacy sold the most of all AAA games last year. Wow.

Given discussion of it is banned on Resetera it would lead to it feeling like the game wasnt that big if you just use Era mostly for gaming stuff

They’ve literally stated that the game came and went with no one talking about it on their forum where they’ll ban you for talking about it.

More than once they’ve said Joanne has destroyed the brand as well.

[AnnoyedCanadian]

I wonder how many people actually give a shit about Joanne's views on trans people and those who actually know about them that aren't terminally online.

Joanne did such harm to the brand there is a fucking show coming out for the books which will have at the minimum 7 seasons (1 for each book) and possibly more if they want to expand on the longer books.

All 7 books are always in the top 10 sold books in all the genres it represents. Amazon, Apple Books e.t.c.

The geniuses on reeee are blaming Trump for the current situation in Iran, blissfully ignorant of how terrible the 2015 "Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action" really was.

Molest the Elephant Man.

I'm going to hell for laughing at that, I don't know why. I got the fucking giggles right now from the amount of stupidity I'm reading and hearing today.

Nepenthe in her infinite fucking wisdom probably thinks he was some furry with elephant being in there.

Did Stellar Blade sell well?

Apparently it sold well enough to possibly have a PC version and maybe even a sequel as well!

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

PC chads win again, baby! No PS5 needed for me!

I think they're just an annoying girl dont think they are trans, but could be wrong.

Excel? 

She is trans.

although I don't remember if we ever learned what that means in this case...

since nepenthe is also apparently trans...

Incelsiorlef is one of the least annoying TransEra members (on this subject only) because they're an older trans, they transitioned well before the current wave. Around 2013 or so. More like Brianna Wu than Kyuuji.

Capitalism obsession with pure efficiency in the entertainment world sure is something else.

To compare that to Film and TV, which are currently getting effed too. Film and TV used to have tastemakers that shepherded projects of passion. Seinfeld didn't pop until the 3rd season.

But nothing can breathe anymore. It has to be a hit day one, or else.

This isn't remotely true, shit used to be canned far more in the past. Now there's all kinds of stuff that never would have even made it to air back then. Networks used to film entire seasons and then can shows after two airings and never release the season anywhere. There's all kinds of critically acclaimed shows that got yanked before completing even half their first seasons.

I never understand how these guys can be so confident about topics they've never learned anything about.

And I feel like it's so hard for POC to talk politics in a place like this that is majority white because of course, we live in two different worlds. Our hero's are the ones assassinated, enslaved, imprisoned, raped and erased by the ones who made their comfort possible. The system they want to keep alive is designed to keep them comfortable and they want to keep it alive with the belief that maybe they can bring us along too. Sad thing is, someone is going to be living their lives under subjugation and abuse under this system. Whether it be here or in the Congo or Sudan. The way we look at things are so different. And white people tend to look down on our points of view a lot of the time.

Yeah, Abe Lincoln, JFK, MLK, not heroes of white people. Nelson Mandela and Frederick Douglass, not heroes of white people.

I have no clue who the "raped" hero is supposed to be.

This is literal racist shit. Claiming that Black people "live in two different worlds" and "look at things so different" and will be "subjugated and abused" anywhere under "this system" which they can't even fucking define. Black people want the same damn things as white people, Asian people, etc. "They're brainwashed by the system! What they should really want is subsistence living filled with blood feud violence! That's their spiritual roots!" Seriously, fuck off.

[kaleidoscopium]

That's a shame, it sounds like it could've been pretty enjoyable if it had just leaned into the camp and spectacle like Bayonetta does. Let everyone dress skimpily and fill every fight and cutscenes with premium anime nonsense.The gameplay really looks very up my alley though (I love me some Bloodborne and Sekiro as well as Ghost of Tsushima more recently) but I'm really not sure how much of the story (and the uncanny valley/gender disparity) I could handle. At least in those three the story is very easy to ignore when I don't feel like engaging with it.

Maybe I should just finally give Nier a go? I've had a PS4 copy lying around for a while.

yes make the game even more scantily clad, thatll make the burqa boys happy

Malcom X renounced his racism before he was killed and it's part of why he was killed, but these "fans" who consider him a "hero" don't give him the dignity of learning what he said because it cuts against the bigotry they choose to define their existence with.

[benji]

"Black people are too different from everyone else!"
Why? What historical reason would there be for this?
"The system is obsessed with whiteness!"
Oh yeah, it's the system that's obsessed. The one that's been with us since the dawn of man and exists everywhere at all times. Totally, a perfect explanation.

[benji]

And the mixed race people?

"They're Black if I like 'em, white if I don't! You need to understand how the system thinks!"

does anyone think trans shit is starting to melt a little because they built up so much dogma that relies on other dogma, basically on word of mouth without a lore bible to refer back to

there are a lot of things that are just Known and if you haven't seen this shit build since 2013, you'd be lost right now, like they're speaking a different language which requires seeking out and accepting a lot of premises to get to their level, much of it self-contradictory too

He renounced his racism against whites but the man was extremely antisemitic still.

Something that leftists like to ignore. Same with other figures that leftists love like Marx.

User Banned (2 Weeks): Inflammatory Commentary

The US would wreck China in a matter of weeks if a conflict popped off. The Chinese military is 99% untested unless you count beating Indians with sticks to avoid esculating tensions with India.

Better get it over with now rather than wait another 10-15 years when China will have a much larger and modernized military.

They seem to have trouble keeping it straight themselves, like whether a trans genocide is currently happening or if it is about to happen

It's been dying for a while now because normal people saw some of the shit they were demanding and said, "Maybe that's a bit much?" and were abused and called genociders. Then they said, "That's not really genocide, is it?" and were abused and called Nazis. Then they said, "I'm not a Nazi though"...

[benji]

Then they said, "I'm not a Nazi though"...

Exactly what the Nazis said.

Xi sees Biden struggling to stay awake, he sees whats happening in Israel and Ukraine stretching the resources of the US and its allies.
He's also seeing that many countries have decided to stay neutral with regards to Russia but more are joining NATO or work together in other ways (Australia + Japan for instance).
Plus he knows that the US thinks it won't happen until after 2027.

I'm pretty sure if the Chinese ever try to take Taiwan during Xi's rule, they'll try it this summer. Either with a more elaborate blockade and no-fly zone or direct invasion.

I'm not saying Malcom is perfect, I'm saying that he recognized he was wrong. And he was killed for it. But his supposed fans don't care, they only like him for his racism.

It feels like every time they say something outlandish and it starts to turn but then a republican says something outlandish and it turns back again. They are just going back and forth while everyone else watches in the middle

They have like ten solid years of made up pseudoscience. At this point half of them sound like flat earthers and the other half sound like they think the flat earthers make some good points.

Yeah, I don't know much about Tibet before Chinese rule other than it was a pretty fucked up society. Natives should have sovereignty.

The commentary that started the chain reaction?

And places like Tibet are better off under Chinese rule compared to where it was before.

What the absolute FUCK is this?

Pro-colonialism is what it is.

*looks at the history of Taiwan* About that...

Dude cannot help himself…

People want to laugh at billionaires, and if it's dangerous, even better. That's the takeaway.

Generally that's my take. Cameron showed this could be done a long time ago. People just want to shit on billionaires and in my opinion, more power to them.

“HuehueHue submarines are dangerous”. No shit.
