Hate watching is ok. Watching for any other reason not. See Kyujji with video games.

[kaleidoscopium]

Genuinely what does me choosing to watch or not watch do to move a needle at all? It does nothing. If people feel some personal conviction against not supporting a brand cool. Do whatever you personally feel. As cliche as it is to say There genuinely is no ethnical consumption in a capitalist society. Life is fucking miserable. I'll take my joy where I can. WWE gives me joy. If that makes some people think I'm a bad person or whatever then think whatever you want I guess.

I'll say that WWE still employees thousands of people (including hundreds of wrestlers) and I wouldn't want them to be out of the job anytime soon since many of them (not all, but most) do alot of good things for kids, etc.

You can hate the people at the top of the company and what they stand for but still appreciate the work the workers do.

Nah, he thinks life is miserable and that it's everyone else's fault.

User banned (permanent): concern trolling, history of severe infractions

I don't know what you are talking about. I thought I made myself pretty clear. Western videogames are ashamed of letting girls be girls. You talk about combat, but how come almost every prominant western game with female protagonist always has to be about combat? (The only one that isn't is The Sims, and it's the most popular game among female players). Maybe girls have other interests beside slaying monsters? Maybe some of the those interests are different from what boys usually like? Or maybe even when slaying monsters, some girls prefer to look pretty while doing it? I know a lot of female players who play all sorts of videogames that don't care about realism as much as you do. I think a lot of western videogames with female protagonists are not made by women, and not targeting women. They are made by men who project their own interests onto women, and they pat themselves in the back for having female representation, even though they fail to actually attract female players to their game.

The only real mistake this poor bastard made was posting in the same thread as Transistor, chief of police. I doubt he had any idea what blender he was sticking his hand into.

I'm completely shocked that blewbawls hasn't returned now that all these ridiculous bans are mounting up. Shocked!

Isn't Tabris a single professional furnishing a smaller apartment? 

He could easily afford far higher quality furniture that wouldn't look boring too.

Beyond that, he's said multiple times that he's not saving ANYTHING for retirement and expecting to live off of the Canadian social safety net in his old age. So ALL of his earnings go to Trump and the Swedes

Pretty sure he got married to one of the gold digger hangers on. His threads about boring married people and boring people with kids have ceased unsurprisingly.

Won't someone think of the poor sports entertainment writers?

[Hap Shaughnessy]

Looks like we are done being Blueballed. Mildly entertaining while it lasted but ultimately a weak effort. Hopefully the next one will be funny or interesting or smart or something.

[Taco Bell Tower]

Yeah, sadly Blueball wasn't ZeoVagina since he never said the lines such as factually incorrect and such. 

[Averon]

Blueballs big gotcha against us was....copying and pasting ERA posts and quoting them in this thread. It was pretty weak, yeah.

This is an act of war but the law doesn't care so the world continues to spiral into chaos.

A Twitter poll.

                   Act of war?

[benji]

This is an act of war but the law doesn't care so the world continues to spiral into chaos.

Much of the Western world is not only allowing an obviously illegal genocide to take place in Palestine, but is actively supporting it. There is no law beyond what the most powerful countries say. That much has been made clear.

Who do they think enforces international law?

[Daffy Duck]

There are so many things wrong with this post.

1) There's no "they", The Matrix Resurrections was only made by Lana, Lily chose not to be involved because the story was so personal to Lana.

2) While it's true she wasn't forced to do it, Lana also didn't take the project as some sort of "get rich quick" deal. For a very long time she refused to make a fourth Matrix film despite WB promising her literal "fuck you" money because she didn't think it needed another part.

What made her ultimately say yes was the fact that in a very short time period she lost both her parents and a close friend. Lana then wrote the story of Resurrections to cope with her grief as going back to Neo & Trinity was a safe space for her. WB came knocking again and now she had a very personal story that she wanted to make, so she finally said yes.

It wasn't a quick cash-in because "they didn't have the pull for a different big blockbuster", this was a deeply personal film that Lana chose to make as a way to cope with the loss of three people very close to her.

3) Wtf is with "they made one great film in their career". Even if you do not enjoy their post-Matrix career (which I kinda understand, but I do not agree), before that the Wachowskis made Bound, which is an amazing film and highly respected as a 90's queer classic.

Thank you.

Bound is a great film tbf

If there's an "illegal genocide" then logic says there must be a "legal genocide" as well...

[Boredfrom]

Yep. The poll and some of the responses in this thread are pretty fucking vile.

I'm puzzled as to why B-Dubs and his team haven't shut this thread down.

Yeah I mean, I know this place is pretty America centric, I've know that for a long long time, but people literally making light of how many people depend on food programs not to starve and shit while genuinely encouraging a tyrant who might actually want a war.

The vibe I'm getting is to a fair portion of this site we don't belong here

So, this might be news but the poll was classless and the people trolling were just being horrible. As such we're locking the thread.

 

The thread is stupid but not for the reason why you think…

“Elon Musk makes a shitty troll poll in Twitter yet again. IMPORTANT NEWS.”

The fact that retards like Dyno take this shit seriously is beside the point. Is more harmful for them to entertain the notion this means anything beyond a drug fueled shitpost from the poster boy of “money cannot buy happiness” IRL.

[kaleidoscopium]

I've never once heard of an epidemic of innocent people's posts about innocuous things being taken down by accident on Facebook. It's literally not even a problem.

Blowing up your content moderation to "protect innocent people" is just a lie. You dumb shits just want to let right wingers say whatever they want without punishing them. Just like Elon on Twitter.

No, it's actually much more complicated than you make it out to be. "If it bothers you, then leave," is not a solution.

Left-leaning people like you and I no longer using Facebook doesn't change the fact that the site will continue to be used by millions and millions of people, many of whom will be completely ignorant to news like this. They have no idea what is going on behind the scenes at Meta. Most people don't pay enough attention where they'll even see a headline like this. They just use Facebook the way the app is supposed to be used: interacting with friends, photos, etc.

The problem is that those people are the ones who are going to be shown constant false information and propaganda.

Fucking hell these billionaires need to be stopped somehow

"noooo they can't allow free speech, the government has to tell the public when they're wroooong"

 

imagine embracing this shit plastered everywhere on "potentially misleading/harmful" youtube searches and under videos





CAUTION: AVOID MISINFORMATION - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: THE FACTS



oddly these tags are only there for very specific topics...you can search for israel or gaza or ukraine war no problem

one would assume that there's plenty of misinformation flying around in wartime, why aren't we being given educational links about these conflicts?

"As for me, I am never shown false information and propaganda. Even if I were, I am factually immune to suggestion and influence."

And man, they have summarily executed the Nazi Bar idiom, it seems. "It'll only be a nazi bar if every non-nazi leaves, and besides I love kicking back with a cold one!'

[Besticus Maximus]

I think a lot of internet misinformation comes in the rush to just be right, first. Both left and right even when people are pushing lies it's mostly because they want to be the most right first.

[kaleidoscopium]

Facebook had a fact checking program? I logged into my very old account a while back and saw one of my neighbors posting transphobic stuff and threatening violence against trans people and when I reported it got told by "moderation" there was nothing wrong with it.

I'm surprised they had any sort of fact checking or "moderation" before.

Have to wonder, actual violence or “I’m not gonna call you Mary Magdalene, son” type ‘violence’.

Yup. Pretty much it equates to shouting out slurs and harassing women, people of color, LGBT people, etc.

Also, very important to note that is that it is NOT free speech in the end. It's freedom for them to say what THEY want, but other speech gets censored. Just look at X and "cisgender". Their ideology is a complete joke. They're just rotten people.

The irony here, it’s delicious 

[kaleidoscopium]

To those leaving Facebook, Amazon and all those neo fascist bootlicker services:
Send a clear message why you're leaving! Write a short, clear mail why you're going.

Leave absolutely no doubt and ambiguity to those spinmasters, MBAs and professional liars, that you're not leaving bc of "wokeness", the "market etc. Don't let anybody spin it into sth else for their quarterly report. Don't just send a message with your wallet- send an actual message!

"I'm leaving bc you're authoritarian enablers. You create human misery on an industrial scale, on the biggest possible level, bc you're not content with making more money than the whole rest of the world,you want to make all of the money. I'm fed up and I'm not gonna take it anymore."

Another huge irony is that cisgender absolutely isn't censored on twitter. Just search for it and you'll see plenty of people use it.

Claiming that it is censored is in fact.... misinformation
