RomToggins being forced to bend the knee by vinocunt in that I want my fetish recognised thread. 

Banabanotaman died for you cunt. How could you do that to faer?

This is what RE believes a healthy community looks like. Questioning other members like the fucking morality police. Acting like the only objectively correct answer is that every fictional character now needs to announce their sexuality (but remember sexuality has nothing to do with sex 😉). If you disagree you're a bigot and need to be banned. Be graceful that vonocunt even gave you a chance to kiss the ring

It's a cult. No question.

banabaman is so gonna get ban by Princess Bubblegum.

Princess Bubblegum is amongst those users that can post anything without getting banned. There was that classic post earlier this year about Ikumi Nakamura being gay (even though Ikumi Nakamura is married with a guy and had a child recently)

https://www.resetera.com/threads/ikumi-nakamura-unseen-has-an-in-depth-conversation-with-an-unemployed-hideki-kamiya.921393/

That was funny as fuck. Thread was about a wholesome video from Nakamura's YouTube where she and Kamiya were just talking about their history working together. Then Princess Bubblegum burst in:

Kinda wish she wasn't propping up these veterans men well due for retirement. Though I suppose it's a necessity for a woman in the industry. *sigh* I want to see her direct a game goddamnit! Still mad she got fucked over by Zenimax and didn't end up directing The Evil Within or anything at Tango Gameworks.

All the more frustrating when it's obvious she's queer.

She deleted the original post but too late, multiple posters quoted it and clapped back about how fucking stupid that post is, and she ends up running away out the thread with her tail between her legs:

Please ignore my post.

I did not want a derail but this involves Kamiya so what did I expect?

Even though I am a lesbian, it isn't right of me to speculate about her personal life. (I was going off some stuff she had publicly shared on social media but that doesn't change much.)

Edit: I'm leaving the thread.

She's genuinely one of the creepiest posters on that site. Someone who jumps to conclusions like that because tee-hee I'm a little lesbian shouldn't be a mod.

What's also hilarious about this that PB is all "I want her to direct a videogame damn it" completely unaware that she's currently directing a new game for the studio she founded.

So she doesn't actually follow what Ikumi Nakamura does but is somehow speculating about her sexuality

If you reported that shit you'd get banned so quick for something completely innocuous in another thread, so your only option is to call that shit out publicly which, ironically, will get you banned. 

This shit would be less hilarious if they hadn't specifically stated this would never happen when they started the site.

[Snoopy]

A quick summary of a brief moment with a friend at the end of a car ride dropping him off home. The conversation is not what the thread is about but want everyone to have some context on how everything went down at least. During the trip, said friend was talking about family stuff when he mentioned off hand while discussing some recent family drama that only his brother voted for Harris, while my friend and the rest of his family voted Trump. I phased out of the next part of the talk because it hit me unexpectedly that he would vote for Trump, seeing that he is Bisexual and that from the time hanging out that day, multiple times showed disgust of things like people being transphobic and a sexist line from a movie we went to see where he basically went "oof". After a little awkward silence, I asked him why he voted the way he did, and it was basically vibes, and when asking about what specific things made him decide to vote Trump, he had nothing. Conversation ended when I dropped him off and I had learned he was convinced both time Trump was impeached, the evidence was not conclusive, if he even assumed there was evidence.

Since the election, there have been moments where people I know talk about voting for Trump. When my parents said they voted for him, I'm disappointed but not surprised. This one took me by surprise, but after hearing him talk, it was a sober reminder of reality and brought me back to the chaotic swirl of thoughts that I have been trying to sort out. Since the election, so many thoughts about why certain individuals who one would think would be against a person like Trump voted for him. Yes, in this system we have to live in, Racism, Sexism, Transphobia, Homophobia, and other toxic beliefs are baked into the system. It's in trying to unravel everything and see how everything works to keep those alive that I have been trying to rack my brain around. Hearing my friend talk about things, as dumb as he comes across like a lot of voters, has made me realize some things, and I just need to put them into words.

Before continuing, I am in no way saying that a person in a group that will be irreparably harmed by the incoming administration are not allowed to be frustrated or angry towards a person like my friend. Years of fighting and then these results spitting you in the face give you all the rights in the world to mock him, ignore anything I'm about to say, and completely check out from the process for now and do what you can to protect your loved ones and yourself. This is more me yelling into the wind of an insurmountable problem by one person, and trying to figure out what, if anything, I can do to help in some way while realizing everything in place makes it pointless for me as an individual to try to make heavy changes.

First thing that came to me is the absolute lack of info a voter has. My friend had no precise reason and just felt that a second Trump administration would be better (a common story sadly). The lack of info comes from a lack of engaging and learning about the ongoing events both locally (guilty as charged myself), Nationally, and even Internationally. And this is where my thoughts divert in a couple of ways. Big thing is that many people (White people and men being a large set of that), are in a position where they are privileged to not have to pay attention that much. Yes, every election can have consequences for someone like me, but so many minority groups have more to worry about for being themselves if the wrong people are elected, and are going to be much more engaged because of that. I could easily be a person who barely pays attention, being a straight, white, cis guy, but due to a long journey that I won't go into details now, I made it a point to be informed as much as I can be because so many people need people like me to be informed and on their side.

Connected with the privilege, many people just don't feel like engaging with news and politics at all after most of their week has been consumed by work and day to day stuff that needs to be done. There should be some room for that, but people who don't think it matters that much can easily just put all of that in the back of their mind, and that's when the most nefarious part comes in. When someone finally decides to get a little information who hasn't been engaged with any of the stuff before then, the question becomes how they go about it, and that's to listen to something, and find a person they think will give them the honest truth. My friend doesn't really do YouTube stuff, but instead goes to another friend I don't talk to much anymore to get his take. Said second friend gets their news from people like TIm Pool and, yeah, that is a big red flag right there if you understand why Tim Pool is a problem and a liar, but if you don't, that leads to having a lot of bad takes.

This then leads to the problem that between crumbling trust in institutions, and a media apparatus that at best pays lip service to criticisms of certain things, and at worst outright sanitizes and allows the spread of lies, misinformation is so easy for the average person to come by, and trying to figure out how to get someone on the right path is difficult, and that's putting it lightly. Personally, I am no expert in properly parsing through the news and getting informed properly. Heck, I am just as bad sense most of my consumption is through stuff here, Late Night stuff like Seth Meyers and Colbert, John Oliver, and then a variety of Youtube content like FD Signifier, Leejah Miller, The Kavernacle, Some More New, and many others. At best, I have multiple perspectives to chew on and at least know what is going on, but I don't think I can say I am doing it right. However, the average person like my friend has one source they will trust, and anything against that is hard to get away from. Sources and institutions that should be trusted, at least to a certain extent, aren't trusted or less trusted than the person that they go to for decision making.

As a person talking to them, between lack of information and not trusting much else, where do I go to even begin unravelling this person? Between me and my friend, where we stand in our understanding of the current world, the gulf is so vast that trying to figure out a starting point feels impossible and pointless. Anything I try to go off of, even with a lukewarm take, could be potentially extreme to him. He mentioned that his brother sent a video for him to watch to see why he thought voting Trump was bad and was going to cause issues, but my friend saw MAGA in the title or thumbnail and figured it was too "biased" to be taken at face value. There's a part of me thinking about using the transphobia of the Trump administration but seeing how he so effortlessly threw out the idea of any evidence of the two impeachments being a whole lot of nothing, even that would feel like at best have my friend think it's some bad people, and everything is being overblown.

Lastly, a thing with him and a lot of people that come to mind, is how impossible it feels to bring up the various forms of discrimination. Going off how I would like to use Trump's Transphobia to open his eyes, the unfortunate fact is way too many people have a simplistic view of the varying ways people can discriminate, and how systems enact that. Plenty here and in the world who think it involves hate and a very specific set of behaviors and language to truly be considered discrimination. Racism is especially bad with people, because they think Hooded KKK members, and that's the only thing (yes, I know of news with Republicans being KKK members or cosplaying as them and still being given a benefit of a doubt). Along with everything else already said, trying to talk about any form of discrimination feels impossible because it's been so warped on what it is and how it can be a scale, and how even if they would say otherwise, I unfortunately find myself in thought partaking in casual discrimination from time to time, having to remind myself that I am biased and can't trust my gut in certain situations.

Now here I am, still none the wiser on what to do, and even more frustrated at how stacked everything is against trying to make progress. The only thing giving me some level of comfort is taking actions, however small they are, to do what I can for people that need me. There are a couple of friends (not the ones from this incident I discussed) that are struggling and may get hurt with the incoming administration. Trying to donate money locally to help groups that will need resources to help people weather the incoming storm Lastly, I am at the very least voicing my discontent at things like people trying to sanitize Trump or act like he is harmless. The energy to try and correct them will be wasted on going nowhere, but at least people know where I stand.

Fuck, every time I think about this, I hate how so many of you were let down, and even before the inauguration are being let down even more constantly. This country and people like my friend let you down, and you have every right to be angry even at someone like me. I hope between friends and other organizations, there is help out there to let you weather the storm, and hopefully something good is at the end of this long night.

Need Advice for the Future - No Longer Feel Safe

Sonicfan1373:

Hi Era, so I am a Canadian that was originally born in the Middle East and moved to Canada; my parents and I legally immigrated here when I was very young (My parents and I have been Canadian Citizens for a long time now) . After the US election results and following what is happening in places in Europe. I no longer feel safe in the West. I am in the LGBTQ community and going back to the place I was born is not an option (along with a number of other reasons). I have expressed my anxiety and feelings to my partner, friends and family. All of the have told me that I am safe and not to worry and that nothing bad will happen in Canada. I worry everyday because of the rise of ethno nationalism (especially now that X has turned into a far-right mouth piece), the increased racism towards people from Middle Eastern Countries in the US/Canada but especially Europe where the far-right has now thrown the term remigration into the mainstream (and these things do spread thanks to Social Media), and we now have to worry about Trump following up on his jib on Canada becoming a 51st state or his 25% tariff (which will further decimate Canada's weak economy, and potentially drive extremism). I should also mention that I do have an anxiety disorder as well and I suppose that makes things even worse (I have not been able to sleep properly for a few months and I have lost weight and a quite depressed). But I have read about genocides and the Holocaust, and I know the depravity people can be capable of. I am not sure if I am over-reacting or if my concerns are warranted.

At this point I am looking at options of where to escape to around the world (Golden Visas). I have considered the Philippines permanent residence programs through investment (this would be ideal given that is the country of origin of my Partner and many of my friends), but I am also looking at Malaysia and Indonesia (I would have conceal my LGBTQ identity in these places). Similarly, there are some Caribbean island nations offering Golden Visa opportunities, but I fear these are too expensive and they are a bit too close to the US. Regardless of where I go to, I plan on seldom leaving the house and mainly just communicating with friends and my partner.

My plan is to save up as much as I can from my job (unfortunately I do not make too much and the low Canadian dollar does not help matters much either) and maybe start a side business. I have a BA degree in Psychology which is not really worth much and I am currently in a Purchasing role at my company. Does anyone have suggestions to raise funds in a short time?

I do not know if I am overreacting or if it is time to look to escape.

I picked a hell of a year to realize and come out.

I don't even know what to say.

The “realizations” you, a grown man, have deluded yourself into having are exactly why so many people are against pushing this gender ideology to impressionable children. I liked the idea of trans better when it only meant it applied to people who’ve experienced intense, lifelong dysphoria. Now it’s “I’ve watched Rebuild of Evangelion and now I’m a high femme.”

Okay but seriously, banabaman crashed out way too early. Like hitting the panic button day two on the job. It wouldn't make sense for someone to be very logical, and throw a wrench in their plans just by speaking common sense, but then immediately go into "mentally ill adult crybaby in need of a binkie" mode. The mods are insane and stupid (and always manage to reach new lows) but they're not that stupid. Mods aren't going to tolerate a new user infighting with their cronies right off the bat. They don't even let longtime members infight with protected class members. People on the site since 2017 and thousands of posts haven gotten banned for less.

what the fuck is this subreddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/BatmanArkham/

it has all the hallmarks of a completely normal arkham-related forum but then every single post is unadulterated stupidity (I mean, more than usual for reddit! heyyo!)

if I was forced to guess I would say all the mods stopped caring/were ousted for weirdos who took over the sub with nonsense? maybe all the mods quit in one of those famous Highly Effective Reddit API Protests™ and so it's wild west now?

[BananaBlast]

Basically it used to be a normal Batman Arkham sub, until they got popular with a meme post within the sub that went viral "Why doesn't Batman just call the Justice League for help? Is he stupid?" and another meme that just calls Batman "Man", and calling Joker "Jonkler". So I guess the sub went full into that and became a full blown shitpost sub.

Depp apparently used the same PR team / same tactics, and he was a movie star with a fan base and beloved roles, This was just some guy.

Making women unlikable is a winning strategy it works all over the internet and here included.

But those "smear" against Amber Heard were all true.

Please list all of them.

Like her chopping off his finger tip?
Or the recording of her admitting to hitting Depp?
Or that fact that she was arrested for assaulting her then girlfriend?

Okay, now list all the things Depp did.

Do you understand the difference between that situation and the Lively/Baldoni situation now?

What.
I was replying to someone who was saying Justin and Depp were using the same PR team and tactic.

I'm aware.

And you're misrepresenting the situation with your comments about Heard.

What am I misrepresenting?

Both Heard and Depp were abusive in their relationship. It's very strange to come into this thread about a different woman being abused in a completely separate situation to take shots at Heard.

Meanwhile, you haven't actually said anything in support of Lively despite posting in both threads on the topic.

They weren't both being abusive to each other tho. One was being abusive and the other was reacting to it.
And I wasn't taking shots at Heard but simply pointing out the difference between Justin and Depp situation.

What is your opinion on the topic of this thread?

I originally thought Blake and Ryan were ganging up on Justin to take over the book rights, but after the new info it looks like I was wrong about it and Justin was the real POS.

Okay.

Please understand that when you go after Amber Heard in two separate threads in the same week (I remember you derailing the Diddy thread with "Amber Heard was an abuser" stuff too), that is going to raise some eyebrows.

He wasn't the one who brought up Depp though. Someone else equated this, where Lively veeeery likely seems to be the victim of the smear campaign of a petty, vengeful, powertripping asshole.

To Depp hiring the same pr firm to defend himself against the smear campaign of someone who could very easily be described as petty and vengeful and manipulative. And was found liable for that smear campaign.

Though Lively and Heard are both women, the situations really aren't the same. Toppa was just pointing that out.

Thank you.

You’re arguing against a wall that says things “factually untrue” so I wouldn’t take it too personally. I think your in the right
