Aren't body types about sexual dimorphism and not about socially constructed gender? So weird that they don't know the difference. I guess they're all chuds.

[Nintex]

With Trump declaring the official genders of the US being male and female I can imagine some game developers would rather be safe than sorry and start to bring back male/female to avoid legal issues.

I'd be curious to know, but I'm not even sure if non-binary people somehow insist that their body itself is non-binary. Like that would limit the idea of non-binary to a little subset of actually androgynous looking people which doesn't fit the usual "anything goes" of the trans gang.

We REALLY need an uprising against these Oligarchs.

These guys agree:

A strong extraordinary tax on capital of a progressive nature, having the form of true PARTIAL EXPROPRIATION of all wealth.

Abolition of unearned (work and labour) incomes. Breaking of debt (interest)-slavery.
In consideration of the monstrous sacrifice of life and property that each war demands of the people, personal enrichment due to a war must be regarded as a crime against the nation. Therefore, we demand ruthless confiscation of all war profits.
We demand nationalization of all businesses which have been up to the present formed into companies (trusts).
We demand that the profits from wholesale trade shall be shared out.
We demand an expansion on a large scale of old age welfare.
We demand the creation of a healthy middle class and its conservation, immediate communalization of the great warehouses and their being leased at low cost to small firms, the utmost consideration of all small firms in contracts with the State, county or municipality.
We demand a land reform suitable to our needs, provision of a law for the free expropriation of land for the purposes of public utility, abolition of land rent and prevention of all speculation in land.
We demand struggle without consideration against those whose activity is injurious to the general interest. Common national criminals, usurers, profiteers and so forth are to be punished with death, without consideration of confession or race.

You guys keep searching for internal consistency in an ideology where there is none. They're not consistent about what sex means, about what gender means, about what male means, about what man means, about what female means, about what woman means, about what non-binary means, etc. None of it. All of them have shifting definitions that are swapped out interchangeably for whatever will give them the biggest leg up in a given conversation to look down on and pass judgment on other people from their persecuted pedestal.

[Besticus Maximus]

The one consistent factor: consume. Never stop.

[nachobro]

How is this the conclusion you end? 

“Maybe the mainstream has less patience with forced diversity, that means we need to respect the weirdos that liked the game more because fuck everyone else, including my own opinion. I’m an ally.”

because that's the resetti definition of ally: agree with everything i say or you're out

Those poor bastards that are not full ChUD and just want to comment about games.

What's wrong with joining a board with some people that don't match your personality or beliefs exactly?  As long as you're freely able to speak, what's the harm in popping in and saying hello?  We don't bite.     I do miss Shosta and some of the others even if I didn't agree with them most of the time.

You know he searching a forum where he is able to impose himself. Already labeling forums cesspools where he knows he would get pushback.

Discussing the most important issue of our time in constructive:

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

We are not true to our principles. We have all collectively let a lot of awful shit slide because we want to talk about videogames. Selectively making a stand on this particular thing that will negatively affect the site's usability for thousands of people should only be done after careful consideration.

Just to be clear, what we're discussing is breaking any future twitter embeds while maintaining the already existing ones in order not to affect the readability of older threads. If people want to use screenshots they can, we'll have some guidelines for that to try and protect against fake nonsense, and we're not going to be breaking links to the platform (that'd create a huge mess). What we're talking about is just making it so people can't embed in the future.

I totally get what you're saying and I do want to try and make sure this does as little damage to us as is possible. I don't want this to be a "We stabbed ourselves in the stomach in order to spit on Musk" situation.

That said, all this is happening at an awkward moment given we're currently trying to set up for a major site upgrade. So it's going to take a minute.

That sounds like a solid plan, thank you for the reply. Have you decided on how regular (not embedded) Twitter URL links will be handled? For example, if the source of a piece of news or rumor is a twitter link, will it be able to be posted as a url in the OP?

Given the technical side is going to take a minute, we're taking the time to iron out the details as much as we can. That way we can make a proper announcement and have some guidelines available.

Just my two cents but Xitter needs to go from Era. I get that Xitter is a big site worldwide but just because it is now doesn't mean it will always be and we need to stand up for positive change.

We can work with screenshots and links but embedding directly is benefiting an actual Nazi.

As others have mentioned we can try and drive traffic to actual websites instead of social media which helps the health of the internet as a whole.

Like I said, we're already working on it.

I usually don't take issue with fat4all like some posters do.
But the way this moron goes out of his way to type "sommit" instead of something is so obnoxious, it's not quirky or cute. Get hit by a bus dude.

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

When they shit talk Era on Bluesky it's fine. When we shit talk Era on the bire it's "PROBLEMATIC" and "HARRASSMENT".

Lot of Reddit users saying the same thing today, and complaining that the votes happened when normal people were at work

This Speaks Volumes
I have deleted all my posts in this subreddit, and effective immediately am leaving.

If 9 people are sitting at a table and a Nazi sits down but nobody leaves the table what do you have?

10 Nazis

Lil bro then made his own reddit for Dragon Age with moderation hidden.

I'm gonna be real, we're happy we can finally do it. I've been trying to get people to stop using it as a source for years now. I've made threads about how bad it's getting, about how some of the fastest growing accounts are literally just Nazis, only for them to get trolled. At one point we literally had to issue a staff post in the Musk thread to stop posters from attacking people who left Twitter for other sites. Yes, there's technical issues that need overcoming, but I'm happy we can finally ask our tech team to tackle them and I'm not the only one on staff who feels that way.

Don't mistake my wanting to maintain the past with a hesitance to do it. A bunch of us have been wanting to for a long time
