The Sackers also did lots of philantrophy. Hell, look at Exxon:

I don't know why the fanbase is freaking out a basic capitalistic critique on a man who folds his philantrophy into selling chocolate and burgers, a man who ultimately leverages the philantrophy to increase his brand to help his businesses, is any different from any other big corporation with a philantrophy wing which is pretty much all of them on the DOW 500.

Look at the CEO on the front in between Ibiza dj gigs. Gave 2 billion too, take that Mr. Beast.

I am also a bit concerned with the 'We can always be doing more!' which is true, but that's not the problem with Mr.Beast. He's doing alot, but ultimately the good does not outweigh the bad, full stop. It's a devils bargains with big corporations from the disinformation unit that is youtube to the global suppliers and explotation that made his burgers and gets the chocolate in stores. This isn't a deep conversation about how does one maintain their sanity while being somewhat privledged (not many of us are trust funders, or can survive a long term fight against an illlness keeping us out of work). Some of us work for terrible corporations etc...but the choices are slim when we need to make moral choices to pay rent or even eat. Mr.Beast does not, or will not have that problem at this stage of his life, and neither will his kids and his kid's kids.

Mr. Beast is essentially as bad as the opioid crisis if you really think about it.

I honestly appreciate benji taking one for thebire team by analyzing NepNep's posts and breaking it down for us.  I've lost way too many brain cells from reading them.  Also, Merry Christmas, bire!

Mr Beast commits two major crimes.

First of all, he is white. This is simply unforgivable, because unless all white people surrender their possessions and homes and make Nepenthe's homogenous blob of black americans world kings there is no point voting for Joe Biden. This is why it's fine for some Japanese dude to make 700m playing a stupid sport two countries pay any attention to, but not to spend the same money over a lifetime doing good deeds.

Secondly, he also does something far far worse. He is a living example of Praxis, as Marx meant the word. Nepenthe thinks praxis is the act of being the priest. I'm also interested in her use of the word idolatry. What she means is, he is living proof that my way is not the only way. Therefore he's a cunt.

I don't know why people think it takes effort or a depressive streak to be cynical at capitalism. Shit is as easy as breathing once you read a single book about it. ☕.

Probably should have been a book actually about capitalism.

The more often I hear it. A lot of radicalised leftist talk sure sounds like ways to avoid doing the hard work of understanding the way the world is, and what it takes to change things democratically to then go on and justify authoritarian behaviour.

Like all the doomer "there is no way to improve things in the current system", simplifying things down to "both sides are the same" when they clearly aren't, dehumanising and removing agency from people that aren't in lock-step with them and then justifying violence against the othered group. It's clear radicalisation, and before anyone says "well it's the good kind" there's no such thing, to achieve radical objectives necessitates authoritarian actions upto and including violence,.and I dont really care if that makes me a dirty "liberal" or "centrist" it's all fun and games playing "my little revolutionary" until your loved ones end up on the other side.

User Banned (Permanent): Concern trolling, inflammatory comparison, account in junior phase

To be clear we won't allow any posting of personal information, no linking to source code or anything else that might qualify as piracy; in fact let's be safe and say no links to any downloads at all. And no links to any shady sites where such things might be found.

But information, the fact that this has happened, is news. And news should be covered. That doesn't mean condoning hacking or leaking, but this is going to be reported on and pretending that it didn't happen isn't sensible. This isn't the first time that a hack or leak has produced news, and in both gaming and world news, that's always been fair game for discussion. Discussing the ethics of leaks is also fair game.

If you see any posts with inappropriate content please report it. Do not attack other members. Do not endorse criminal acts. Period. Thank you.

So just to be clear, we're okay discussing this leak because pretending it didn't happen wouldn't be sensible, but it was sensible to ban all discussion of two of the biggest games in the last few years? This forum chose to pretend two of the biggest games didn't exist because the forum didn't want to give them free marketing or whatever, when in reality no one who has bought either in droves even knows what ResetEra is, so the self importance is funny.

It's hard to find this not hypocritical when both instances can lead to harm to people.

Correct. Feels no different than individuals gawking at "leaked" nudes that got hacked off of a private phone or computer. Engaging with the material feels pretty gross. I feel ten times worse for the private information leaked though. That's way more devastating.

Merry Christmas era, I'm all alone, I sent someone I cared for unconditionally a straightforward simple Merry Christmas text an hour ago and she didn't respond (my crush) even though in October I sent her a happy birthday message and she responded positively,she knows how I feel. I am sick (2 extruded lumbar discs causing excruciating sciatica that doesn't let me even sleep because of the pain), no friends, no family. Can't enjoy my hobbies because of the pain and I'm falling into a deep deep depression. This sucks, I shouldn't have sent that text either, I feel like made my circumstance worse. Just venting, no one to talk to.

[books]

All the cock gobbling for Kyuuji in that thread.

[benji]

It's this idolatry that's the problem because it fundamentally reinforces capitalism no matter how much you and others try to tell me he's a nice guy. And again, capitalism is a system that can only be sustained upon genocide, slavery, deliberate underdevelopment and disenfranchisement of the South, and minority-based oppressions like misogny and queerphobia, because to fix those things whites in the US and Europe would have to give all the money and land back and they're not about to do that without a fight.

For the lord thy god is a jealous god among you

Anyone going to lift a finger to wind her neck in? Her position is that being white is original sin and she is perfect and fuck everyone else. Which is conservativism, bdubs.

pre-capitalist empires

you're an imperialist you fucking moron

I know just asking for this myself will get anyone who does it banned but I really need someone with an account to ask Nepenthe for a timeline of when capitalism started and the theft of money occurred. In previous instances she's implied that capitalism started getting imposed somewhere between 150-500 years ago. But really I'd settle for just some concrete examples of instances of this happening. Really anything at this point. An African nation where capitalists took all the money and land to Europe/America then "deliberately underdeveloped" what was left behind or whatever any of this is supposed to mean. Maybe an explanation why capitalism can only be sustained through genocide and queerphobia since that would reduce the size of the market not increase it and historical examples of how imposing capitalism recently led to this or how divesting from capitalism in the Soviet Union, China, North Korea, etc. stopped it. Stuff like that.

Since, you know:

Most people here truly don't care about these big historical and social mores the way I do
