If you told me a bunch of churchmarms were protesting a naked diagram in a biology textbook, I'd believe you.

That's a new one to me
I wonder how many terms they can make up until they get to "we just don't like you"

Has "violating a safe space" yet been conflated with "literal rape"? I can't keep up with the insanity but I can see it getting to that point eventually (if it hasn't already).

The idea of online safe spaces on video game forums make me fucking cringe.
Imagine battered woman’s shelters handing out advice leaflets with a link to the resetera forum on it.

The brainwashing the left has done with climate change is absolutely scary.
About those sea levels.
You can even measure the high/low tide strip.
While climate change is happening, the 12 year doom & gloom grift behind what they are peddling has other goals/agenda.

Wait isn't the sea level lowering a good thing or am I looking at this comparison wrong?

The biggest issue with the recent fiasco is just general hypocrisy. So they have a discord group for minority staff members, a place to talk without including the cishet white staff members (can't imagine how they feel). One poster ponders whether asexual should not be be part of LGBT. While I'd disagree with them, it isn't that strange of a stance to take when discussing the original grouping of LGB. LGB are all sexual orientations and Asexual has been classified in the past as both a sexual orientation or a lack of one. They received a response of "people could see where they were coming from" which is general healthy discourse. The staff member formulated an idea, proposed it to others, and got a response that while they might not agree with them they can see where they are coming from.
Take the same thing or similar and post it on the actual site. You'll get a ban.
Ketkat wanted the staff member shouted down and told they were wrong. I quote their post "a moderator on the staff talking in the discord about how Asexuals should not be a part of the LGBT+ community and instead of any challenging or talking through, was essentially told that people could see where they were coming from, to not feel bad, and then dropped".

By voice, I mean they’re not represented in the mainstream media. Sure, there’s plenty on GAF and some on YouTube, but they’re presently a fart in the wind compared to the psychos getting signal boosted on CNN, NYT, etc. I mean just look at the platforms of the DNC candidates. They’re the best representation of what the left currently stands for. All of them put their hands up for free healthcare for illegals. They all parrot identity politics BS to some degree. This shows who and what they’re listening to. Sorry mate, but your particular brand of leftism isn’t represented in the mainstream at the moment. I hope that changes for the good of us all.

Understandable and I see where you are coming from. However, even if the sane-left isn't represented very much in MSM, that doesn't mean we should just generalize all of the left by conflating them with the mentally ill types like AoC and Era/Twitter.

No, sorry. Not trying to suggest you are. I mean more in general (such as the person I first quoted that started this convo).

Not that I'm completely aboard the doomageddon train with climate change, but this is not what I'd call compelling evidence.
I bet if you took a picture of this in 1925 it might look different too:
...I think Venice getting inundated yet again is more compelling evidence that sea levels are actually rising. Say what you will about what's the cause of it and what to do about it, to me it's just an engineering challenge we'll likely overcome once the motivation is there, but it seems foolhardy to ignore it.

That’s what I like to hear. All the doomsdaying from the smoothbrains leads nowhere but anti-humanism and would send us back to the Stone Age. I very rarely hear anyone suggesting engineering solutions.

My pic was more in reference that we are all going to die and coasts are going to drown in a decade or two.
The Doomsday cult BS.
Believe me, I am well aware of what we are doing to this planet, and do everything I can personally to have as low impact as I can.

In a thread about fucking China, Resetera still finds a way to bring up Trump and claim sensible immigration is "REEEEEEEE equal to Hitler!"
China tells Uighur Muslims they are abducting their families so they can cleanse their brains like they have a disease, leaked documents show
Not to derail, but thats how whataboutism works. Like how trump justifies the concentration camps at the border because Obama did it. The only ones letting china off the hook is you, me, and all of our economies that fund them. edit: Jesus christ, they actually call them concentration...

It's Trans Awareness Week! (Nov 13th -19th)
Nice to see you representing. As for Ket I personally look up to her as kind of de-facto leader/voice of the community and as I have stated I am truly bothered by this but I didn’t even think about it until reading the posts because it’s not one of my issues and I am not part of that community...
www.resetera.com
This is an interesting post, as are the subsequent reactions. Someone defends the staff for something that would be standard protocol anywhere else, but the trans community isn't having it. So the staff basically have two choices:
1. Ban the guy for being dismissive of trans member concerns... which confirms that the staff themselves are similarly dismissive.
2. Don't ban the guy which signals to the trans community that their voices are not being heard.
I do not envy Cerium right now.

When exactly did the Irish, Italians and Ashkenazi Jews became accepted as "White" in America?
During 1800's/Early 1900's European immigrants were treated like dirt and seen as "savage' Anything less than Anglo Saxon/Nordic was not considered "White". What exactly triggered that change?
www.resetera.com
A whole thread dedicated to saying the Irish and Italians were never white. Anyone who argues otherwise is using "pseudoscience".
But that's not the worst part of the thread.
SJW's don't know their own history. "Latin America" is actually Native Americans who were colonized by the Spanish/Portuguese, and because they never brought their own wives over from Europe (like the European settlers who came to settle Canada & the U.S), the few Spanish or Portuguese Men essentially married the natives and bred with them.
Yet where does Resetera get this idea that this definition is suppose to "change" when the history of the U.S/Canada is completely different to that of the rest of Americas?

Somehow I missed this post the first time around.
I just meant was Era literally the reason he lost his job? As in his employer saw him posting there, didn't like what was being said, and thus fired him.
Most people already figured out he didn't work there anymore just by virtue of the tag change and people checking his Twitter, but I don't remember there being any public confirmation on how he lost the position in the first place.

Nothing as dramatic as that. Story goes that he did some free IT support for an outlet and they "Let" him write some articles as payment. It's been reported he wrote 3 very by the numbers articles and that was it. So then it was enough for him to be originally verified as a "Freelance games journalist" on Ree.
Not that I'm taking credit and it's probably just a coincidence but I screencapped him on here of him saying he didn't work in the games industry and would not want to as he had a cushy IT job that allowed him to post on Ree all day and get paid. As we know the Ree mods watch this topic so not long after they saw that post making an embarrassment out of their verification process and changed his tag top "Incident manager" although he's still kept his verified status.

lol, that's ridiculous.
And if people were making fun of the prestige of the Verified tag, they should have removed it entirely. That's so dumb that I can't imagine NO ONE on the stuff doesn't see the issues with it.

When Ketkat was talking about mods saying transphobic things she was its been discovered the person she was talking about was Royalan. Look who just insta-popped into that topic, and who locked the topic that Ketkat was banned in.
What a shitshow.
ketkat need to drop everything she has now and go scorched earth.
