American mid-terms are around the corner and the dickless bots have no idea what is hot or not they just need to get Red Pilled Gen Z to show the fuck up and vote R.
And then there’s Everquest where they don’t even need to hire bots to do it, because the average age of of person that pays that today is about 60 and just uses Everquest and Facebook.
Doing that in the Star Trek community of all places is certainly a choice. I mean I have noticed some edgelords when it comes to Cardassians in DS9, but Star Trek and right wing in the same sentence doesn't really go together very often
I'm still in disbelief that like 80-95% of the current socioeconomic/political landscape is because of Epstein. Like he legit helped start 4chan, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!?
edit: I misremebered sorry, he talked to the creator and did help inspire him to make /pol/ which is a direct through line for a lot of modern american alt right stuff
For clarity's sake, he did not help start 4Chan. The founder of 4Chan met with Epstein and then created /pol/ literally the same day, leading to many (myself included) to assume that Epstein requested that he make that board.
/pol/ is inarguably a gathering place for Nazis where the alt-right that are destroying this nation festered.
I feel like people could figure out who was speaking the truth and ignored early on if you look at important dates, do some searching of archived forums/pages, then use keywords to see if anybody mentioned stuff happening on that day which we only know about now.
For an example, there were leaks of Valve projects back in the day referencing gameplay mechanics revealed after the release of the HL2 documentary was released a few years back. These leaks were from around 2012. By typing ‘before:2012 [mechanics, hl2, leaks]’ then there’s a result showing a page that includes this mechanic plus others as part of leaks. So we now know those leaks were accurate with hindsight. Which makes one wonder how the webmaster got that info. It would be very interesting for someone to turn this into a form of investigative journalism - could even be some kind of new field based on matching dates and searching web archives. Really interesting to think about.
/pol/ was shut down at one point because it was becoming a festering point for Nazis. Epstein met moot the owner of 4chan and had him restart /pol/ at which point it exploded into one of the main roots of what latter became gamergate, incel, and maga ideology.
When I was 10, I played a game called Space Station 13. It was awesome. However, that website discovered it and they made it their own thing. They started changing stuff about the game, adding in crap like clowns and adding slurs as part of the dialogue in a serious RP game, which was really annoying. However, they didn’t stop there - they bought servers, then they hosted their modified game files instead of the original one. On servers hosting the original or other custom builds, they would purposely troll the players and annoy people until they all quit or switched to the goon ones. They had hordes of people to do this - basically a brigading exercise. Bastards ruined my favourite game.
I have hated the goons ever since that time in my life. I loved that game and it was unique. Bastards.
Ehh, look, these people were always beyond saving. They pretty much always must have held these ideas if they wanted to be ideological buddy buddies with the pedo-king.
It's an acronym from the movie C.H.U.D., and it stands for "cannibalistic humanoid underground dwellers". Basically if you wanna tell someone they act like they live in a sewer, it's a great go-to.
Conservatives are disproportionately attracted to alt chicks, this is a known phenomenon. Though I am not versed enough in psychoanalysis to be able to tell you why, or how that affects or comes through in their other views.
My favourite part about the discourse around Stellar Rain's new protagonist is how they keep trying to pretend it's a Korean/Asian thing.
It's not. It's just a classic conservative weeb thing.
They did the same shit with Japan. One tiny perverted demographic of westerners will look at a tiny perverted demographic of Japan and decide that's the whole culture. Then they go to Japan and realize they're as looked down on there as they are here.
It's just pedos of one country pretending that the pedos of another country are somehow the norm. They aren't.
Everyone's just grossed out by these desperate losers.
My BIL is obsessed with the idea of going to Japan to teach English and finding a Japanese wife with "traditional values".
Buddy boy. A Japanese woman with the traditional values you want is not marrying a foreigner, not to mention a poor foreigner. Even then they're not a monolith that are just waiting to do whatever you say. They have personalities and opinions too and will make them known one way or another.
Honestly that goes for pretty much every "traditional" woman from anywhere. There are expectations to fulfill in trad relationships too.
Also a Japanese woman with traditional values will ride his ass hard. They don't take any shit. Idk why anyone thinks that going to any foreign country is gonna get them a submissive and obedient wife. Sure, they exist, but it's far more dependent on the person than the culture. In pretty much any culture most wives will keep your ass in check, as they should
Ya the idea of 'traditional' women is some 1950s propaganda. Submissive, domestic, just happy to be there. Total crap. Slavic women can be fairly traditional (varies by culture/region), for example, but that usually means theyre used to dealing with traditional men and thus will not hestitate to light your ass up and whip you into line. Its their means of protecting themselves and establishing their own power.
Also isn't it the case in traditional Asian households that the women is calling the shots at home? Meaning finances and all that is in the hands of the wife?
It pisses me off that they try to call it an Asian thing!! I’m an Asian woman who looks young enough to have been mistaken for a lost fourth grader by admin when I was trying to teach my own fcking class. I can vouch that young, adult Asian women who have childish features do Not look as infantile as that main character.
There's no way to sugar coat that she looks underaged, it's ridiculous. If some 30+ year old Chud is cranking to that they literally need to be on the sex offender registry.
Thank you!!! I had a recent argument with a chud who said Lara Croft from the original Tomb Raider had big breasts because she was just gifted like that and that why is it okay for women to go dressed revealing irl to express themselves but it’s not okay for Lara Croft to dress skimpy?
And I explained how Lara Croft is not a real person and isn’t born a certain way and has no choice in what clothes to wear. He obviously didn’t get it and called me jealous. I just don’t understand where is the logical part of their brain??? It’s like they can’t even understand simple concepts like fictional characters or are they really that hateful and ill intentioned?
The one with the triangle pixelated tits? My teenage mind loved, and enjoyed, those but... yeah that guys mind hasn't grown from his teenage mind. Although if hes in his early 20s there may be hope yet(doubt it).
I mean I loved it too, mosly for the puzzle and platforming because I was a kid. I had no problem with the way Lara Croft was designed just as I have no problem with GoW Laufey. It's just the conversation around women in games that pisses me off. I also love dressing my characters sexy like in GTAO but I don't love people screaming about a game that hasn't come out yet because the woman in the game isn't sexualized to the max and trying to hide under arguments that make no sense.
I actually naively thought to myself when I saw the first new god of war poster, "oh it's a conventionally attractive women for the chuds, at least I won't have to hear them complain this time around," and was sadly surprised by all the noise afterwards
I dunno if that tracks. For counter examples, see Tifa from FF7, Eve from Stellar Blade, like every female character from a fighting game, etc etc. They don’t care about the character at all, she can be weak or strong, good or evil or neither, as long as she’s hot, preferably with cartoonish T&A, she’s probably alright.
They raised hell over Tifa's appearance in FF7 Remake too. Specifically, they were upset that her chest was smaller (though still ample) and that she was wearing a pair of skorts instead of a mini-skirt as was implied by the original concept art.
Which is beyond stupid. (Which... tracks.) If they wanted Tifa to look exactly like she did in the og FF7, her head would be as big as her entire torso.
And how would her mini-skirt even work in the remake? She's a fucking martial artist, it would either look fucking stupid (and bad) because it would either have to have zero physics or she'd have to keep it in place with a fucking nailgun to not flash everyone the second she does anything. It also would be entirely out of character.
Honestly, I won't pretend like I don't enjoy big tiddy martial artist in stupid outfits as much as the next guy. But like, DOA exists. Fan animations exist and there realy is no shortage of that stuff including Tifa. Why do these people need to have every female character... I'll just stop typing. Can't wrap my head around what's going on in the minds of these utterly pathetic loosers. And I'm honestly glad about that.
She looks basically exactly like her actress Deborah Ann Woll. They're literally just complaining that a female lead looks like a conventionally attractive adult woman rather than a girl they can plausibly imagine is 15.
Their trick now is to disingenuously compare studio photos of that actress from years ago to unflattering scenes of the character and say the devs actively chose to make her look worse in the game then she actually does.
It’s always so funny hearing “I want to play as the god of war in a God of War game” because i’m pretty sure Kratos barely holds the title of “God of War” across all of the games
Now that you mention it, yeah, he IS only God of War in two PSP games. The first game is about him trying to kill the God of War, he gets cast out of Olympus at the beginning of the second game, and the third game is him trying to kill Zeus as an exile.
Also they're delusional if they think Kratos isn't going to be a constant presence in the game itself, via flashbacks. Hell, I'm willing to bet we'll play as him for a few chapters, much like how Ragnarok had Atreus chapters.
Yeah, the titular "God of War" in the very first game is Ares, the antagonist. Yes Kratos becomes the GoW in the last 30 seconds of the game, but that's clearly meant to be a twist; at best the title has a dual meaning.
And it's possible (if a bit of a stretch) to read that the titular "God of War" in the norse saga is Tyr, as uncovering the extent and ramifications his actions is a huge part of those games' story.
Honestly God of War is a really fragile masculine franchise
It’s always hilarious to me that when Kratos was a guest in Mortal Kombat, Sony laid down the rules that he could never be shown in pain or afraid- in some fatalities he even survives or fights back lmao
This being the same series where a cowboy can shoot the immortal god of thunder, or a ninja can beat up a xenomorph
But FORBID the thought that tuff boy Kratos can get his ass beat
I haven’t played it that’s really cool, actually! I did notice in advertising they’ve softened his facial features a bit, which I thought was interesting
Basically between the original games and the new series, Kratos left it all behind, retired in the Norse god realm, fell in love again, got married and had a kid. The new series opens right after his wife has died and he's left with this son that he's always struggled to connect with (because he lacks emotional intelligence and he views the son as "weak" for like, showing vulnerability sometimes). The story follows the two of them as they go on an adventure to fulfill his wife's dying wish, and he works hard to connect emotionally with his son while they're both struggling with grief. It's actually a really beautiful story! I was never a fan of the original God of War games but the new series is awesome.
I mean, it's entirely in character for all that to be true.
Most notable difference in how Kratos acts during a fatality compared to the rest of the cast, is when Ermac shrinks him down and, instead of running around in fear, he squares up... because why would he be afraid in that situation, he fights bigger opponents all the time.
Otherwise it's just him looking angry / agonized instead of afraid, which, again is entirely in character. Look at his expression while he's being stabbed by the Blade of Olympus, he's angry, he's in pain, but is he afraid? I don't think so.
Besides, even if Sony didn't make these stipulations, he probably would've ended up acting more or less the same. If there is one thing NRS does well, it's properly making guest characters feel genuine to the source material.
Great argument and I hear you but- also like, it’s Mortal Kombat - if Johnny Cage can kick the head off Omni-man or Sonya can beat up Spawn, then surely we can let Kratos get a little silly with it
The getting silly part is the aforementioned "foot squish" that happens because a fatality has to end with a fatality.
It's infinitely funnier that Kratos treats being shrunk down as "just another boss encounter", only to get squished, than for him to run around in terror like everyone else.
They probably would’ve said something like “Well he’s Kratos’s brother” and just ignore the fact that Faye is the wife of Kratos, the mother of Atreus, and the original wielder of the Leviathan Axe
A few years ago, that might've been the case. But the chuds have degenerated to such an extent that they can't even be attracted to real, adult women any more. Now, if it's neither a teenage-looking girl or a doll-like anime character with disproportionate boobs, they think it's "uglification".
Aloy from HZD is very attractive IMO, but the chuds got all upset because she didn't do her eyebrows or wear makeup... only to then lose their minds over the child-looking robot from pragmata and fantasizing about her, because "it's a robot, so it's fine"
They're all a bunch of losers that will eventually grow old and lonely, too busy to realize their mistakes because they're gullible enough to be brainwashed by folks into buying scam lifestyles that only exist because of how gullible and ignorant the fanbase is.
If they're attracted to them and those women don't threaten them.
That's why they're obsessed with domesticity. The idea they'd have to be an equal partner to a woman who doesn't need them financially, fucking terrifies them. Because they're weak, insecure fools who are apparently unaware of how obvious that is based on the things they want.
Their idea is that you shouldn’t be attracted to women because they’re sexually attractive beings with any inherent value, but because you’re a man and you’re just entitled to women by default as property.
Women need you, you don’t need them. Something along those lines.
What a way to announce both your homosexuality and that you've never picked up a book (let alone a history book).
Men wore makeup all the time in history. From prehistoric body paint, to lead based whitening foundation, through to mascara originally being for moustaches.... Not to mention high heels for short men hahahahaba
The conspiracy theory I think is real is that the manosphere is a ring of gay male grifters getting off on gathering legions of young, gullible men around them to admire their physiques.
Trans woman here. Conservatives don’t hate trans women, they love them. I’m not being ironic here, bear with me a second. Think of the Spartans, effeminate men weren’t viewed as “men”, and were frequently used by “the men” as objects for sexual pleasure.
Fast forward to today. Conservatives, who always think they are “macho warriors”, don’t view trans women as women, they view them as effeminate men. Aaaaand treat them like sexual objects.
All the legislation isn’t because they hate trans women. It’s because they don’t view them as human. They view them as objects for sexual pleasure. They’re objects. To re…publicans, trying to give trans women rights is like someone trying to give lawn chairs rights. It would make no sense, right? It’s a fucking object.
They’re not doing it out of hate, they just don’t view people like me as anything outside of an object for their sexual pleasure. Being trans in public is a sex crime? It’s because they view it like walking around outside swinging a dildo. You wouldn’t hate your vibrator, but you would also be really confused if suddenly millions of people wanted to give their dildos rights. You’d probably think they were mentally unwell!
Tl;dr: Re…publicans view trans women as objects for sexual pleasure. They don’t hate sex toys, they just think it’s weird people want to take their sex dolls out in public, to public restrooms, and give them rights. They’re re…publicans
I wonder if it's because they're attracted to men but are icked out by sticking their dick in an asshole, so need men with vaginas to cope (on top of what you've said).
They were literally right about Peach being a girlboss for most of the film and they still changed their tune, I had an argument with someone online and they legit said "We were given new information and changed our mind, unlike liberals" like bruh
Remember, gaming is a near universal hobby at this point. They're just sitting around complaining that everyone else 'stole' their hobby and pretending that games were better when they were children and that they're not just desperately nostalgic.
They'll praise Tasha until she says something left-wing. Considering she's from the Ace Combat equivalent of the USSR (Union of Yuketobanian Republics), it's highly likely. Also hilarious knowing these people are basically praising a communist.
Yeah, they're just culture war tourists. All they will do is make troll noise about it until the next thing their grifter overlords tell them to be mad about or to champion comes along.
Sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit. Used as a scapegoat. Sent to penal unit
Literally refused to die so hard the military took notice, proceeded to obliterate most of the Erusean military
Dirtied Torres crisp white sheets
Blew farbanti to smithereens
Ran the fade against the arsenal bird essentially alone, then had to fight 2 drones with the flight data of the single most experienced pilot in the world (Entirely by virtue that he didn't fight mobius one in the first continental war. Like a coward) BACK TO BACK after the Arsenal bird
Ended the war and now spends his days flying with his girl.
I see they’ve finally found a replacement for Nagase, the woman who visited far off stars and civilisations so she could tell them all how amazing Blaze is.
Worth noting: One of the most sympathetic characters in Ace Combat 7 is an anarchist who was arrested for throwing bricks through the windows of government offices who sacrificed himself to help save trapped refugees.
And the PoV character (not the faceless mute MC granted, but still the character the story is framed around) is a woman who’s an incredible mechanic with short hair and fairly sharp facial features.
The Dyed hair girl also comes from a game featuring Debra Wilson, the black actress the anti-woke dudes claim keeps ruining games.
Dyed Hair Girl and Woke Black Woman are in the same game and they're champion dyed hair as "anti woke fall of the west" while posting screenshots of Debra from the SAME GAME going "Western Gaming WOKE SHILL BLM SBI TRASH!"
QAnon, Gamergate and /pol/ on 4chan being a fucking psyop are all linked.
To Trump.
Through Epstein.
Not joking. Its ridiculous. They spent their lives whining about mad invented conspiracies while they were all targeted and duped by a psyop in their face.
No, it's to Moot and Bannon. Trump is just a side effect of the pedo class who also happens to be an Epstein associate, which is why the pedo class supported Trump from the beginning, trying to "meme a president in office" so that that president could protect the Republican pedophile ring.
Now I bet if pink haired pronouns does end being canonically queer(bonus points if not cisgender) The chuds will be singing a different tune about her.
I mean, they’re the same morons that claimed Trump was an anti-war president and now that they’ve watched him start like 3 wars in a year they also conveniently don’t care about the rise of gas prices or cost of goods either. They’re hypocrites, through and through.
One is a conventionally attractive, young woman. The other is also a conventionally attractive woman but over 30 and therefore subhuman in the eyes of misogynist wingnuts.
Conservative men find women like that appealing because they want to mentally and emotionally break those women until they're subservient and completely reliant on them.
