the lessons most companies are going to take is to never try. Its not worth it.  You have to do it perfectly to avoid pissing them off and even then you will then have sperglords on the other end going "OMG SWEET BABY AMIRITEEEE".  So why bother at all? Not like you actually gain much from it at this point sadly.

Make the game/movie/comic/whatever you want and stay out of the culture war bullshittery either way.

That's really the funny bit. The only trans thing about the character is the actress. If they had hired a cis voice actor absolutely no one would care.

They absolutely believe the developer hired a trans voice actor and then created the character to mock her.

They would find out that a transperson auditioned for it and was overlooked because blalkdfja;lsdfjweiqfpjaoif

Yeh can't think of any transphobic parallels to this at all lol.

Is this transphobic?

Poliera leftovers still too pussy to say anything lol. Nep/bdubs installed a BCT stooge as their OP maker and they take it and love it. This is what happens when you fear the hand of Bdubs like some weird Stockholm syndrome shit. Just tell him to eat shit for housing an antisemite.

Did they pick the voice actor because they can do both male/female typical voices?


Sounds like the devs are being resourceful.

It sounds like they told her that it was going to be a shapeshifter monster (“amorphous”) and she was okay with it until TransTwitter started to bitch about it.

Kyuuji in that transphobic DBD thread

Literally looks like half the transphobic MS Paint memes out there.

[Nintex]

It all boils down to the fact that these people do not only not understand comedy but they don't understand entertainment in general.
They don't understand that for example a big name actor would enjoy being a zombie monster in a videogame because its interesting, funny or entertaining in a way.

If for once they had set aside their prosecution complex and embraced something like this it would speed up their "acceptance" greatly.


No every single piece of media has to be about A) Sending the MESSAGE or B) THE GENOCIDE.

Always a good look when you get Varg on your side.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varg_Vikernes

In August 1993, Vikernes fatally stabbed Mayhem guitarist Euronymous during an altercation at the latter's apartment, and was arrested shortly after. In May 1994, Vikernes was convicted of first-degree murder, church arson and possession of explosives.

During his incarceration, Vikernes launched the Norwegian Heathen Front, had two books published, and released two ambient albums as Burzum.

He promoted views which combined Odinism and Esoteric Nazism, and openly embraced Nazism during the mid-late 1990s. He has since disavowed the ideology and its associated movements, although critics continue to label his views as far-right.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heathen_Front

The Allgermanische Heidnische Front (AHF) was an international neo-Nazi organisation, active during the late 1990s and early 2000s, that espoused a form of racial Germanic Neopaganism. It grew from the Norsk Hedensk Front (NHF), which was claimed to be led and founded by the musician Varg Vikernes in 1993, although he and the organisation denied it. The program was based on his first book, Vargsmål (1994), published shortly after he was convicted for church arson and the murder of fellow musician Euronymous.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filosofem

Filosofem (Norwegian for "Philosopheme") is the fourth studio album by Norwegian black metal solo project Burzum. It was recorded in March 1993 and was the last recording before Varg Vikernes was sentenced to prison in 1994; the album was not released until January 1996, however.

Hopefully Senate Dems are smart enough to never let it get to Biden.

Even if Biden got it, he's like 80 or so, right?

So he'll just wait a month and then ban Facebook Videos instead, then text everyone he knows a link to it at 5:30am on a text chain they can't leave.


Seriously though— the problem isn't reigning in Big Social Media. It's that they're doing this whole ignoring the absolute toxicity that is Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.

User Banned (1 Month): Dismissive Commentary; Inflammatory Generalization

You literally called young voters toddlers having temper tantrums.

Your initial post is literally ageism.

Hypocrisy like this really grinds my gears. "Rules for thee but not for me" I guess. I really don't get it.

Meanwhile Musk gets to openly run a platform for Nazis, the hypocrisy is unreal.


You don't get to call younger voters toddlers who want their cartoons and then cry when your boomer opinion isn't taken seriously.

I was implying that some of the people doom posting here about Biden 's potential Tik-Tok ban handing the election to Trump was making young people out to be toddlers incapable of critical thinking. And for that I received an onslaught of insults about my age.

I'm Gen-X, actually, and have been using the internet since the beginning. I see what it has become and limit my exposure because it can be so toxic. I think social media needs regulation. Might as well start with Tik-Tok.

The fact people came in here to dog-pile on me and call me a boomer is disgusting to be honest. But not surprising as anti trans or non- neurotypical bashing are the only no-no's here.

No wonder Biden was so eager to sign this bill. Sure Tiktok helped Dems win some of these elections, but does that really compare to the thrill of a genocide?

This idiot who wrecked their legs from trying to walk like a dinosaur thought their "warm and snug" gender was ice cream under five years ago and didn't want to claim they were "trans" because they didn't ascribe to the "binary" and were afraid of their "ignorant self bulldozing into things": https://thebore.net/re/kyuuji.htm

On the one hand, good. This will hurt their chances.

On the other hand, I'm concerned this could end up making Dems more complacent about appealing to minority groups and taking their concerns seriously. Especially considering things like Biden's terrible handling of the Palestinian genocide.

plagiarize

Zoey seemingly got backlash from people genuinely upset about the character, and I see zero reason to think she's lying about having been in the dark about the character design.

The devs at *best* have grossly fumbled this.

Until we know more about the origin of the post etc, can people hold back from making posts like 'The queer people I know don't have a problem with it' or 'I haven't seen any other communities upset about this'

Kyuuji

Trans people aren't a monolith. Some of us can find things transphobic that others don't, some of us can have issues with things that others don't.

[benji]

It's like they've actively chosen as their epistemology to reject actual sources of knowledge for a set of forum priests who are simply anointed in various subjects.

[benji]

"[Whatever] people aren't a monolith! Yes, I will speak on behalf of all of them and disagreeing with me is dismissing their views!"

[Eric Cartman]

Do you think they have little speeches and mission briefings with each other in their discord before they decide who is going to be the meat shield mod for the day. Reminds me of the conservative party sending out juniors to defend the indefensible on breakfast tv.

[benji]

I don't think it's a coincidence that the Dead by Daylight devs did this in the middle of a massive conspiracy that murdered Nex and Joanne admitting she admires Hitler.

I swear to god one day I will understand those of you who love this game so much.

Every time I've played it it just felt indescribably worse to control on a moment-to-moment basis. Even with Adaptability maxed out. It's like my character is slipping on butter or something. Even putting aside the "quantity over quality" philosophy that I feel bogs down the whole experience I just cannot bring myself to enjoy it on a basic gameplay level as much as DS1 or 3.

Fuc

I'd say that I made the comparison myself, on Day 1, as I was playing it lol

But it can also be true that Elden Ring is Dark Souls 2 but expanding on the parts of DS2 that worked (the more open-ended exploration from the outset, power stancing) while toning down on the stuff that didn't (tying iframes to a stat, controls feeling awkward).

Fuck dark souls. It's too fuckin dreary and fucking dismal. Why the fuck would you fucking play that shit it's fucking horrible. With a fucking bad story and fucking graphics aren't as fucking rendering. Maybe you should play a better fucking version of it cause it's too fucking dreary and for those who enjoy it you have a fucking problem because you have a fucking dark souls if you enjoy the shit outta it what the fuck is wrong with some gamers th try need to log the fuck off and get off their fucking asses like a couch potatoe time to time

Does she also have head mates or something? In the original screenshot she talked about how the developer tricked her to cater to the transphobic community and now they're actually great and the people who make transphobic memes are the problem?

Anyway, huge applause to how this completely crumbled the RE thread. Something that was unbelievably transphobic a second ago is suddenly actually acceptable because the actress did a 180°

I feel like we'll be saying this later this year but change from Trump to Biden and Covid19 to Gaza war. There is also the plan to torpedo TikTok. So if that succeeds, that's another blow to the morale of anyone progressive. I just saw a piece on Yahoo polling optimism and Republicans are more optimistic than Democrats. This feels like 2016 all over again.
