Joe Biden's new ad is problematic when it comes to how it talks about China [See Staff Post]

Simple answer: yes, saying “the Russians” is also xenophobic and emblematic of the political instinct to dehumanize the opposition at every turn. So no, it’s not the “gotcha” you think it is. The argument is further defanged by the very transparent fact that there is an ugly racial undertone to...

Idiot forgets it was Japan that attacked the U.S first with Germany/Italy declaring war afterwards. Although none of that changes Germans/Italians were still interned anyway.

Also, he didn't even attempt to argue against dehumanizing Russians. So it's ok to hate them by Reset's logic.

 

[JordanN]

Seriously, how are we suppose to argue against these damn nutbags?

Nothing breaks through to them. They refuse to hold China accountable in anyway.

The mods are getting so insufferable feel like they spend an insane amount of time talking about how bad they have it and woe is me.

It’s clear these pathetic cowards are incapable of meeting their own standards. This summer is gonna be a shitshow

 

[TheStruggler]

I'm by Chapter 16 of FFVII Remake (no spoilers) but how the fuck did it take around 60 hours for the suicidal idiot to finish it. I've went at a snail's pace and still on track to finish it in about half the time. Was he playing it with his feet like Daniel Day Lewis in My Left Foot?

Red Mercury v Hobbes. Troll v Incident Manager with zero incidents managed. Let them fight.

Also Ketkat banned for 2 weeks for shit stirring over several days. Finally bit the bullet and took a mod down to do it. Take Nepenthe next please.

Tech shouldnt have Ketkat been perm banned a while ago and a bunch a man babies threw a fit and they unbanned them....talk about favouritism

Well the twitter account hasnt updated since March 27, so its either been DDOS'd to oblivion or became self aware and decided for its own sanity to socially distance itself from that utter shitshow of a forum.

Kiwi Farms moved to a new server, so there may be some kind of issue there because Null was hosting it.

I find it hard to believe that "Asian-Era" has any kind of broad demographic of Asians - they are either all 3rd gen+ Asian American/Europeans who lost their culture and think Asians are a homogeneous ethnicity or are Chinese. No Korean or Japanese person is going to be offended by specifically shittalking China.

This is the second post in a thread.

Joe Biden's new ad is problematic when it comes to how it talks about China [See Staff Post]

So, here's the deal. Firstly, the new thread title will stand. We wrote it because, on review, the ad is in fact pretty problematic. We can discuss that fact, get into the why of it, but there's not really any shying away from the issue. Yes, you should be free to critique the Chinese...

www.resetera.com

They just need to change their logo at this point to reflect their true intentions.

This is that same dumb thing. What do "Asian members" have to do with shittalking China? Much of Asia hates China too. All these worldly, culturally enriched people have no idea what the real world looks like.

Not gonna lie it feels good coming back and seeing my last off-topic post arguing against crazy accusations of misogyny.

edit: pretty crazy seeing the forum death-spiral in real time though. Was just a matter of time after they made it a bannable position to not blindly believe any accusations of sexual misconduct. I gave up after the Jussie Smollett thread.

That thread was hilarious for being such indisputable evidence of bias.

Bunch of people banned for not instantly believing one side of a story - quickly proven right to be cautious in their determination.

And as far as I'm aware that was basically all swept under the rug. No apologies or unbannings. Just kind of.. moved on.

Hey, Faust , remember when I was telling you the real point where a community breaks down is when two mods who disagree do so publicly?
Here's an example of that in happening in real time.

Lol there's so much in that thread. Poodlestrike comes off as an absolute bitch with his horseshit, has to run and get B-Dubs to help bridge the gap and they're still failing. People saying the board has fallen, B-Dubs running out of fingers to fix all these holes in the boat...

I don't know what it is about Sunday's but they always bring action packed adventure from reeeeera.

It was a terrible ban. It also highlights one of my biggest moderation annoyances - “accumulated infractions” as a justification. Of course he’s going to have “accumulated infractions” - he has 30,000 posts! You’ve got to let people get heated from time to time. They really need to focus on...

Dial up the bans!

 

[#Phonepunk#]

oh shit did not realize Kirblar got banned. he was one of the loudest most obnoxious establishment libs, wonder what went down. posted constantly in political threads and the biggest cheerleader for the Dems. so many of these types were wither banned or apparently quit the site over the weekend.

what happened? was it that Biden ad? lol campaign season hasn't even begun.

 

[Ymir]

Lol Poodlestrike claims he doesn't remember saying shit after trying to call out their discord and then immediately tells them to retract the proof of him saying it. Is Poodlestrike just like B-Dubs?

Ahh, yeah. There's always going to be some inconsistencies. I think the weighting on this one was the ongoing spat over Hillary avatars. Felt like there was a lot of mutual trolling going on. I'd prefer not, frankly. It was a while ago, and while I'd like to add some context to it, I don't...

It's a sight to behold. Their own presidential candidate keeps failing their purity tests and doesn't give a rats ass about their pet causes but their staunch partisanship is forcing several of them them to twist themsevles into supporting him.

No, really. If it's all people who left here because they wanted something supposedly better and then learned that the better they left for is all kinds of worse, I have an honest hope they'll try to be better.

Yes, this. Though perhaps if we had regional alliances we’d see a mass migration over a decade by political factions.
