Support NeoGAF

[Ulysses 31]

He's being done that off and on for the last couple of years.

To be fair, this was Crowder's shtick like 10 years ago.

 

[Tams]

All of those can be seen as anger with DEI policy and you can only infer that he thought black people were biological inferior.

And now thanks to an arsehole who was very much to the left, no one can ask him.

Doesn't matter how many you guys try to pretend it's one or a "very small" number of developers, we all know that's bullshit. And there is a huge difference between buying a product from someone because they do or say things you don't align with and buying something from people who would laugh if you were murdered in the street because of those differences. If you want me dead, and I find out about it, fuck your company and everyone who works there until the rot is gone. And that goes for all of them...I'm done with these clowns...all of them. There are thousands of games you can play without supporting people who have OPENLY come out and stated they are happy that people who have certain opinions should be dead and cheering they were assassinated.

That's why I said you can do whatever you like. and I'll do what I like, and I wont have my enjoyment of something ruined because of politics. These people aren't wanting you or me dead, they are laughing/making jokes about someone they hated (which we can agree in itself is a sick thing to do), they (mostly) aren't asking for more people to be killed.

Does that mean you wont be buying any games from Sony, Microsoft etc. and nothing made in Unreal? Are you going to check every dev that worked on a game before buying it in case they have said something you don't agree with (especially in relation to Charlie Kirks murder)? (actually, that second question is a bit extreme, of course you aren't)

 

[Windom Earle]

Destiny now also got demonetized after he "trolled" people about his Twitch ban.

 

[Doomtrain]

tongue boxing your girls ham wallet and then she goes a does a good ol' booty poof

Holy fucking lol.

Of course. What part of "I'm not supporting a person who would cheer my death" don't you understand? And they absolutely DO want anyone who shares any of Kirks views dead. Why do you think they've spent the last 15 years calling anyone who disagrees with them about ANYTHING a Nazi? It's so that they can dehumanize them to the point that someone putting a bullet in their neck is a joke to them. Wake the fuck up. They literally compare normal every day people, who have never hurt a fly, to a movement that killed 6 million Jews and they do that, explicitly for purpose of linking them to one of the most heinous atrocities in human history so that they can do whatever they want to them and feel morally justified. And yes, I will absolutely not give Sony or Microsoft another dime of my money. And if I see another developer cheering this shit, they're done too as far as I'm concerned. And this isn't about "what I disagree with" , this is fucking ghouls cheering an assassination. It's not a difference of opinion, it's sub-human pieces of shit vs people who still have their souls.

Some of you are still treating this like some random video game beef nonsense, but this isn't that. This is something completely different. We've literally never seen anything like this, and unlike people who put their "pleasure" above their morals, this is one instance I refuse to back down.

And if you think I'm wrong, watch this. Shoe is 100% a liberal in every sense of the word, and look at the list of reasons she has been called a Nazi.

 

[rnlval]

I mean, when Trump makes threats to revoke their license, it wasn't exactly Disney's decision, their hands were tied.

Kimmel has straight-out lied about Taylor Robinson's story against other civilians i.e. Charlie Kirk, and statements made by Taylor's parents. Both Charlie Kirk and Taylor's parents are NOT the government!

 

[GymWolf]

Those women didn't say that women being raped it's a worthy price to vote left, it's a false equivalency. if under a left government rape would suddenly become legal in the UK, you would have a point.

Guy was ok in paying his second amendment rights with human lives, it just so happened that this time the life he was paying with was his own.
Too many times people are ok with paying the prices of their conviction with somebody's else currency... From on side or another.
Kind of reminds me of that Shrek line "somebody of you will die, but it is a price I am willing to pay"

From my understanding dude treated guns like cars or other stuff that kill many people every year but they are so useful that you have to accept the death tax.

At best you can argue that weapons are not as useful as cars but i'm sure many people would disagree, being able to protect your home and family for many is as important as transportations and other commodities.


IF you are mad at him, be mad at all the politicians that never regulated guns because they also think they are super useful, kirk has no power but strangely enough, the left never banned guns neither, even when they had the power to do something, they all tacitly agreed with kirk, they weren't just as vocal and straightforward as him but you can bet your ass they agree that guns are worth losing lives, the lack of actions from any political side speak louder than kirk ever did.

 

[GymWolf]

this is so freaking cringe, how have I not seen this before

What about the miles suit and giant murales tho?

 

[ValiantInstance]

I remember when Destiny posited himself as an 'enlightened centrist'. In the last couple of years he has learned that reality is not how he believed it was, and that along with getting cucked has broke his brain.

In the UK I would define this as 'Blairite neoliberal multiculturalism'. There are countless 'enlightened' and 'sensible' figures in the media here who subscribe to this worldview and see it as the natural order. I have the popcorn bucket ready.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Old but worth showing again......Suckerpunch really has turned to complete shit. I think i'm done with them completely given this recent Charlie Kirk scenario too

 

[GymWolf]

Edit: ok people already addressed this point no reason to pile up.

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

China, which, lets face it is practically everything we own in one form or other, especially electronics and much of that is FAR worse than someone saying something on Twitter).

China has not committed any terrorist attack in the West in the last hundred years, unlike brainwashed fanatics that live among us and openly declare to want us dead. You are lecturing people on prejudices and come up with this extravaganza.

In fact, this political discourse in China would be shot down immediately, so we are in no position to claim any moral high ground, considering the rot that we have allowed into our society.

 

[nbkicker]

Haha just seen the posts of trump saying Antifa counted as a terrorist organisation and he will come down on any company contributing etc to this organisation, and lead actress from ghosts saying "I'm antifa , so is my wife" sucker punch and Sony gonna regret putting activists etc into roles in there company

I'm not mad at him, I just said that I found his death ironic.
and also, again, nobody here is arguing that guns don't have use, but that just like the cars of your example, there should be better rules and limitation around them....just like access to cars is limited behind an age restriction and a license (with health checks as well? some countries do, dunno about US) to safeguard other people and limit risk, even more should happen to an instrument that has on killing people its main use instead of an incidental one.
Especially since it's entirely possible to have both guns and not a public shooting every Tuesday, you just need to look outside of the US.

Wild how we're barely even talking about Game Developers anymore at this point. But this thread is just going to keep on growing.

 

[Kacho]

I think the culture shift that's happened online emboldened him. People are less afraid to speak up.

How many more Starfields, Avoweds, South of Midnights and Outer Worlds do we need? Woke slop doesn't move the needle.

 

[The_Mike]

I don't even know who this Destiny guy is, this thread is the first time I've ever heard of him. Did he say all conservatives should be killed?

What didn't I respond to?

Also replied to you before with a video where democratic profiles says you should do violence against the republicans. Obama and Biden have said if they are in the school with trump they would have beaten the shit out of him.

Obama has said you should bring a gun to a knife fight.

And then the left together with the media are talking about trump is a fascist and it's ok to use violence against fascists.

Edit - also check out resetera. They are proudly spewing hate about republicans and that they should all be killed.
Also on reddit.

I'm actually not even American, but yeah, if I was I'd probably be a center-leaning Democrat.

But I know from my own country that both the far left and the far right can be hateful, violent and dangerous.

Politics can be very different from country to country.

Living in Denmark myself, took some time getting used to understand it.

Liberalism in the US are considered left while in Denmark its considered right. Also, it doesn't stand for the same.
In Denmark, liberalism stands for freedom of speech, lower taxes, every one has the ability to become something greater, while it's the exact opposite in Denmark.

I gotta say though, and I know this is about American politics.
I don't understand how anyone from Sweden or England can be a leftist, when you look at what it has brought you given all the immigration you have going on.

Don't get me wrong, i'm all for more gun regulation, but then again, i'm not american, guns are not part of our history nor we are as obsessed as americans are with them so i can't really understand their point of view, and in italy there is nowhere as much criminality as in america so guns are just less useful here where i live.

It's def a culture thing. Growing up, it's common place in rural areas for dads to take their 8 year old hunting and showing them how to shoot rifles. Starting obviously with a BB gun. It's bonding time. Rural America is just built that way. I also grew up that way. My uncle let us shoot bottles and cans with a 22 gauge around 10 years old. Kickback damn near knocked me to the ground lol

Def don't conflate that with what we see happening in inner cities with gang violence and shootings over drugs and money etc

Could be, but as you said, not outside of realm of possibility with what happened lately

 

[splattered]

Don't know if this is even appropriate to post here because it isn't technically gaming related, but this is a Charlie Kirk thread. Someone sent this to me earlier and i sat and took the time to watch the whole thing, excellent video.

 

[GymWolf]

You want a real laugh, Trump just announced Antifa is labeled as a terrorist organization.

The 180° from the grifters are gonna be glorious to watch.

 

[kpopSuperstar]

Those women didn't say that women being raped it's a worthy price to vote left

They are ok with it. That's the entire conflict. Everyone knows immigration has a price. They know more women will get suffer because of it.

Just in case anyone wants to claim that Kimmel's free speech was violated....

I didn't know I had the constitutional right to a show on network television.

When does my show start?

I didn't know that a "threat" from the administration was the same thing as an action. I guess every threat any government person has ever made towards a business is the same thing as taking official action against that business.

Other admins have threatened NGOs and social media companies before. The bully pulpit and lateral pressure have been used before endlessly and for myriad reasons. It's crazy some in the media are more upset over Kimmel getting "pulled" by Disney(even after he said what he said) than they are over a political assassination of a 31 year old man in front of his family. That is fucking CRAZY.

Got a giant rash under her arm too. What a surprise. Someone who's a big LBGTQ supporter also likes antifa.

Kimmel only had 125000 viewers... He is fucking irrelevant.

What is even crazier is that they suddenly forgot about the figures they have cancelled over the last 5 - 10 years.

It's not that crazy if you try to be in their shoes, hard as that may be. They are in the media after all. So if it can happen to Kimmel, then it can happen to them. People tend to prioritize what could happen to them over what could happen to others right? So right leaning people are terrified that they too could get shot for speaking their mind and the left are terrified that they too could lose their livelihood for speaking their minds. Basically everyone in the media is terrified now, for different reasons. Obviously one is more severe than the other, and hence is more justified than the other (in my opinion), but in a world where we refuse to empathize with the opposing side, your own potential threats will always seem bigger.

 

[Orpheus]

Moving forward, please keep this thread on topic as it relates to reactions to Charlie Kirk's death in the gaming community. There is a broader discussion in the Off Topic forum. And please, be civil.

For Mike Ybarra to post that you know this shit went to far.

Ive been saying this shit since the last of us 2 ... finally people are admitting

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

Void Interactive fired the CM for saying "nothing of value was lost" after the assassination. Good for them, honestly.

VOID interactive shit canned one of their community manager.

" have you noticed that every man in horizon is a pathetic, incompetent and whiny"

A prompt action and response, making it clear where they stand.

I think Sucker Punch is far more ideologically compromised. From what I've seen, I believe leadership avoided making a statement because they would face open mutiny in the office.
