I think people underestimate the chud's influence because they don't want them to have that sort of pull. They just don't want to believe it. Almost every time I open steam forums I see it. 2 women kissing in a screenshot for a game? The forums had a long ass thread about how that's sexual content and the game should be banned.

These games that get targeted get review bombed, or have their bad reviews elevated, and their forums get flooded because they're invested in seeing the games or the industry conform to server what they want. I think the healthy approach is to not believe the world does, or should, or ever has revolved around you. Even someone having these stupid beliefs should understand that not everything is about them, or their group.

CHUDS!!!

Well, this is going to have a Steisand effect. I'm buying the game now. Don't care if I'll play it. Fuck these chuds.

Does Norway have a rule that the projects they fund need to be about Norway? Like, I think The Witcher got money from Poland. It's a Polish story but it's fantasy.

To the people pointing out the sales numbers... do they not know how government funding of the arts goes? It's literally just there to encourage art to be produced.

What did I tell you? This was a signal boost to get virtuous online types to buy this piece of shit.

Remember folks, people with that kind of hate are pedophiles. Let's not sugar coat this fact.

And no, I am not going to give them the benefit of doubt. They operate on the same wavelength and should a higher up argue its legality, they'd fall right in line and you all know it.

Please tell the people in Ukraine and countries like Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania who've gone through multiple invasions and decades of occupation that Russia is just a bogeyman.

Go die for NATO is not a compelling argument for fixing US military recruitment

Surprised this didn't get a ban. I thought Era became Pro NATO when the Ukraine war pop offed. So many socialists got banned. 

[Rendle]

not even a laziness thing, just the sheer benefit of being able to avoid endless parades of people in the process

the guy who finds the models, the guy who talks to the model's agent, the model themselves, the guy who writes the contracts, the guy who does the scheduling and rents out the studio

and then ultimately someone is angry with how you used their likeness, or isn't getting paid on time, and they sue you

skipping all of that

it's not "art" being lost, it's endless bureaucracy and liability just to take a stupid picture of a smiling kid eating a happy meal

Yeah it's faster but good things take time. A pic or video of a gorgeous woman taken by a professional beats an A.I head to head every time. I'm the least luddite person there is, but when it comes to women real is better. Not sure if that makes me a romantic or misogynist but whatever you want to call me i'll take it. And when I say "real is better" i'm talking about the fact that it's non-generative, not about the women themselves, i'm not going to judge women for deciding to get a breast augmentation or tattoos or excercise or whatetever. Luddite shit.

AI right now is the worst it will ever be

and you don't have to just type "hot lady, supa sexy, wearing a great sweater showing off her sweater puppies," there are tons of ways to control the image and edit it to make it so that you'd never know the difference

within the next year (if not already) you'll have seen print ads/billboards with AI women and you won't have known the difference

(10 out of 10, suck a dick skynet)

But yeah that's 5 years ago and photorealistic faces are very easy to slip through as real, i'm sure we've all already seen a.i in advertising by now and not noticed, but no matter how real it gets, I think people will always prefer real images and video over fake. They couldn't even do Joi's scenes in BR2049 without using Ana De Armas, remember. Can't even fake a fake without a real.

Not to mention the photo he took and apparently uploaded to a porn site?

No it's not. Especially if you are a big monster down there. You have to understand that your hotdog isn't STATIC. Meaning it is dynamic and moves all the time. And like I said, if you are big and thick down there, it is hard to contain and may just slip out at an angle. You do not want a snake on a plane.

This isn't even taking into account the double threat that is also hanging out down there. There's a lot of moving parts to this.

Vex going for the humble brag. Or just trying to be gross as usual.

i feel like this how middle school boys talk about how genitals work. “it can be as long as a snake and get stuck in your shoe! I can’t even wear shorts because my balls are so long!” 😎

When did Fat4all go from dog jokes, to reminding people he likes dicks?

This guy might be the most insecure homosexual ever. Constantly telling us he likes dick, but doesn’t seem convinced. Is this his play to avoid getting banned knowing that the tide has turned for horny on the non heterosexual posters?

[Jansen]

I don't get fat4all. If he's gay all he has to do is get some meth and hit up grindr

Nintendo needs to learn a very harsh lesson on what is fair use. The West doesn't need to follow their weird sensibilities and I've always wished for a community fund to fight legal battles against their bullshit.

Yeah fuck nintendo for not letting these fuckers corrupt their games and characters with their own shit.

Some would argue that even pants are not safe for men to wear in public.

[BananaBlast]

Fat4All acting like a wholesome doggo never worked because he was the same cancel nut as everyone else.

Like golden retrievers are such innocent fun cool loveable pets. Fat4All is just some fucking human snob like the rest of them.

The creepy always horny gay guy gimmick works better because he fits in with the rest of them.

Also it's funny he can't be truly pansexual, because if he expressed horniness towards women he'd be banned for boys club behaviour.

[Anti-Monitor]

When ResetERA says "Shutup, chuds, and listen to [insert minority/disadvantaged/marginalized group here]," what they really mean is " Only listen to [insert minority/disadvantaged/marginalized group here] that already agrees with me." That community has always operated that way as far back as their NeoGAF days. 

It's one of the main reasons why ERA's such an echo chamber. Only one perspective is allowed. Even when you follow their "rules" like "Listen to marginalized groups," it's only valid if said group already agrees with them.

“You need to listen to women and shut up”

“I am a lady and love sexy designs”

“You need to understand your views are not universal plus internalized misogyny “

“I talked to my wife and she doesn’t mind sexy designs”

“Why doesn’t she say so herself? Why do you speak over women? Ban”

“This popular female youtuber/cosplayer/influencer is seen enjoying sexy designs”

“The exception and not the norm. Most women hate them”

“One of you said they also liked this design in another thread”

“It was appreciation from a queer bipoc pov, which is different from the gross heteronormative thirst gaze”


Only when the council of balding fat transbians (all of whom still have dicks) tells you their consensus you can truly claim you’ve listened to women.

This comment during the Stellar Blade meltdown is my favorite. Just completely showing their hand and what they really mean

So you don't care about what women think. You care about what people you know think. If you cared about what women thought then you'd be listening to the women in this thread.

thediamondage

if you click the ... at the top right of the thread you can see "Who Replied" and it shows the number of replies by each poster. Every Star Wars thread has the same person pretty much in the top 3, I just figure at this point its gotta be a way to get more posts/engagement in the forum since its literally the same poster who has the most hilarious takes on how everything Star Wars is perfect and anyone who disagrees is completely wrong and has a thousand word essay on why.
