"Videogame" forum.

It is a radicalization camp.

Wishing death on someone gets you a day.

Thinking it's reprehensible for a man in his 20s to beat up a woman in her 50s gets you a week.


What a wonderful site.
Where the hell is the Kotaku hit piece for that post????? Video game culture related = check; Adverse action by an entity for being against violence perpetuated towards women = check.

Seriously, a moderator of that site banned a person for saying violent acts against women over words is not acceptable. That is sick.

It’s almost as if they have become the thing they fear the most...8Chan.

It is all projection.

Schreier lets them brick in his mouth, you think he will write a hit piece on them?

They are all in the same dog eat dog ideology camp.

Complete madness... Basically saying that you don't have to, nay shouldn't, obey laws you don't agree with. They seem to think that being called the N word is tantamount to assault with murderous intent and deserves a similar reaction, but since the laws don't allow for that, ordinary citizens need to take justice into their own hands. Just dangerous shit.

If you are willing to swallow the pill that The System is systemically racist/misogynistic/etc and that whoever supports The System is a racist that doesn't deserve civility, it's hardly a leap to start advocating violence against them as a way to expedite the necessary cultural emancipation.

When you're on The Right Side of History, the ends always justify the means. Or to put it in more recent terms, By Any Means Necessary. 🤷‍♀️

I never left here, but I dipped my toes in over there simply due to it being the more active forum when they kicked off, but man... it's so hard to participate over there. If I have a differing opinion about anything I'm genuinely scared to say anything even remotely against the grain for fear of repercussion. I've circumvented this by trying to stick solely to gaming threads, but even that proves difficult sometimes with some of the crazy shit I read on there. I genuinely can't believe the sheer amount of people who believe some of the stuff they say.

Yeah, that's basically it. They've completely given up on the liberal idea that, while our systems are not perfect, we can come together to improve things over time and ensure equality for all. Instead, the governing ideology demands a complete teardown of society for a new, more just one, to be rebuilt from the ashes.

Well, they tried their damnedest to tear this place down and usher in their utopia. Fortunately it’s all internet nonsense and they don’t have real power, but I remain concerned for the folks who end up indoctrinated in the Reeee worldview and call that place home. It’s total immersion in despair and catastrophization.

Yeah, it's basically a microcosmic representation of what society might look like if intersectionalism was the driving ideology. Looks rather similar to other totalitarian/"communist" societies, in which there are constant purity tests and purges of leadership for not being revolutionary enough, ratcheting up of demands to accept and internalize ever-more outrageous lies about reality, and non-stop fervor to expose anti-revolutionaries (err... racists/bigots) and send them to the gulag (ban) in order to win points with the party.

Often the only thing you can do is provide hope and place that ideal on as high of a pedestal as you can.

pls with "no recourse" they threw her out of the restaurant!

"actions that come with no consequences are begign" NO YOU FUCKING MORON SHE GOT THROWN OUT OF THE RESTAURANT THERE IS YOUR CONSEQUENCE ahem her behavior resulted in her being removed from a place of business. that is your consequence.

the problem is, that wasn't enough, they had to enact vengeance. it crossed the line from rational to irrational, from social to anti-social.

Excuse me, but are you fucking Greek or are you appropriating that word, Mr. Lore? You even had a gyro lately?

I think there's a difference between going "well what did you think was going to happen" and justifying what actually happens. You can absolutely point out cause and effect when someone decides to poke a beehive.

The old lady was being a shithead, there's no doubt about that. We can still ask for people to be better than stooping to physical violence. This wasn't some woman wandering into a gang war at midnight, it was a typical business altercation that anyone working retail or in the service industry has experienced at least once. This one just happened to involve verbal racism. It's not good, but it's also disproportionate retribution to respond to it with anything other than more words.

Yeah, watching the video that dude went way too far - probably hyped up by the idiots around him. I wouldn’t have been upset with a smack in the moment though, with him being fired immediately after of course.

Has anyone here actually encountered a nazi? I'm curious if these unicorns actually exist. With the way they talk, you'd think they're running wild in the streets.

I did. In 2003 where this Nazi stood outside of a Quiznos where this cute Jewish girl was working with his back turned to the windows so those inside could see his massive neck tattoo of a swastika.

Some used to try and hand out flyers at my university on occasion. They would stay just off campus on a route that led to all of the local restaurants and stores students would frequent.

I saw some the last time I was in northern Virginia for work training. This was shortly after the big rally in Charlottesville.

They kind of ARE the nazis or they at least share enough aspects, especially with them now condoning violence against others so openly. Not the only group of them around right now, but I'd firmly plant resetera in the camp of fascism. If you dont agree with the hivemind, despite what you disagree on, you are punished or banished.

REEEEE is scared of another [Canadian] election.

I say do it. Trudeau lost the popular vote last month and Maxime Bernier is no longer around to split the vote. Minority governments never last anyway so lets put a conservative in power again.

Well, say what you want about the nazis, but those red armbands were stylish.
Stalin was the father of modern marketing and propaganda. Literally, almost all of McDonalds symbols and colors come straight from the communist propaganda playbook.

Tldr: no shit they're stylish. That's the point. To indoctrinate others in anyways they can, even if it's a person who just thinks the outfit is cool.

...
Dont go be a nazi, now.

Whoa, benjipwns posting over here. Huge shout out to the Bore.
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
If anyone played Danganronpa

ResetEra is basically like the Ultimate school, there are good and awesome people (aka industry people who contributed) and the Ultimate Despair are the "special Reee members" who are transforming each mind into having a despair-ridden point of view.

Dang that's a scary (and accurate) comparison.

I hope they can escape their nihilistic spiral.

But the ultimates were talented in some way. Not a single person at REE is.

I've both encountered a stereotypical bald, tattooed big "nazi" idiot and the real deal - nicely clothed, inteligent, with a nice shave and a smile on his face.
It's the second type people should worry about, but it's mostly the first one, cartoon villian type, they warn us sbout.

Thank Hugo Boss for their clothing.

I like their style too...

Jesus I went away for 2 days and thought that penIs is female genitalia, was the worst they could get.

2 Days later....l‘m floored at the craziness I missed about that lady getting slammed to hell. These are the people that say Gamergate was the worst thing that happened ever right? And we are all sexist?
Yet they condone a woman getting almost murdered by a man nearly twice her size and half her age?

Sad that the woman will be getting paid and he will rot in jail with internet fame and neither one of them will be able to enjoy it.

The Ultimate Sociology Major
The Ultimate Persona 5 Boycotter

Nah, they got it covered.

The Ultimate Games Journalist
The Ultimate Penis Reclassifier
The Ultimate Keyboard Activist

Then in the end, they all become Ultimate Despair.
