Maybe if your forums community wasn't so blatantly anti-Semitic, doing apologia for Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis and other terrorist organizations, spouting tankie nonsense and making general awful commentary that wouldn't be an issue.

It's like you can dislike what Israel is doing, feel bad for the innocent Palestinians, hate Hamas / the other terrorist organizations in the area and not be anti-Semitic. It's not a hard fucking concept.

My other favourite topic from that site is when they are going on vacation, arrive at their destination and then ask what to do.

YOU CRAZY MAN YOU CRAZY

It's like you dumb motherfuckers can you not do your own research? Holy shit. I swear even using Google is too hard for them.

It's not just for vacation stuff either, it's for stuff like "HEY I GOT A PS5 WHAT GAMES DO I BUY". Common sense is severely lacking.
The point is to receive validation from others. Once you recognize that everything they do is based around social signaling in hopes of achieving social status all their concerns make sense. They're status obsessed and completely fear being judged in anyway while refusing to change anything about themselves.

They are entirely different courts, but could a country like South Africa bring this up? Especially if American politicians try to follow through on their threats. It directly interferes with investigations into their claims, such as starvation as a weapon of war.

They have a strong case for relevance so if South Africa can bring this up, I suspect they will. But I don't know enough about either court to understand if they have jurisdiction.
They really think there's some world staff to send reports to don't they?

Palestine isn't a very liberal place. No elections, half of it is dominated by a extreme authoritarian religious group, the other half by a slightly less so one, no real rule of law, etc. It also doesn't seem very liberal to support the self-determination of people to other people's nations which is the position of Hamas. Though maybe you support Russia too, I shouldn't assume you're inconsistent.

I wouldn't support it but I'd love to see you respond to an argument that Israel should wipe out Hamas and the phony PNA and let the UN establish an actual mission with properly democratic groups in charge. Something similar, but ideally smarter, to what happened nearby in Iraq. Society

edit: oops, sorry, forgot the anti-colonial basics that people have a right to choose an authoritarian government to oppress them and deny them human rights to protect them from colonialism.

Voice actors always fall into some sort of controversy. Maybe it’s being known to a few but not famous enough to derail ordinary life. If Hank Azaria is recognized, it’s probably for Heat. Not the Simpsons.

I feel like they're a bit slow to catch onto the fact that THEY are the reason that these journo websites and a lot of studios are being shut down. Their morality policing (IE SOME BASIC FUCKING DECENCY) has added so much risk to every single project and there ends up being only about ten or so games a year that meet this intersectional california liberal sniff test.

The concept of games journalism is pathetic in and of itself and the people who act as though there was ever a need for a woodward and bernstein of rareware are just as ridiculous, but once upon a time there were thriving communities and websites that were funny, relevant and part of the zeitgeist. 

It turned out that the people who were demanding you didn't talk about big games like Cyberpunk and Harry Potter were fucking idiots, but you went along with it anyway, so everyone just moved away. Jim Sterling is a microcosm of what has happened to the industry at large. People would tolerate the histrionics until they reached an event horizon of nonsense.

At the end, as the asteroid smashes into the mexico, they're touting for b2b jobs looking for people who are good at 'speaking about marginalised people' (you mean bourgeois westerners who play videogames pal).They've effectively killed the culture and now they're paying the price.

I stopped giving a shit about journalism for games years before the whole Gamer Gate stuff. It was like in 2011 when it started getting exceptionally bad and Kotaku just plainly spoiling games with leaks (I believe a major one was Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 having a major asset leak months before launch) and not retracting anything. Plus every article had to be updated for inaccuracies.

I'm just glad there is stuff like Gematsu where it's straight to the point and concise.

Challenging gamers was very stupid of the woke crowd. Gamers are the one group that will keep trying to win and won't give up or back down. 

The Sarkeesians of this world thought they could just stir up the pot, get some attention, collect the bag and move on. Gamers won't let them.
