I think it was banned because they don’t like Glen Greenwald saying the Russia stuff was a hoax.

I still can't believe they are considering banning the Guardian.
Speaking of the Guardian, it looks like their ex-CEO (who left two months ago to become the Footbal Premier League CEO, but has now had to resign) has got himself into a "me too" situation, after repeatedly propositioning a young, female Guardian journalist:
Guardian's CEO is a Sex Pest

I don't know, that whole adding "kisses" thing seems to be becoming quite common, and not just among young women. When I was working in the UK a couple of years back a 50-something year old women our company worked with would always end her messages with "xx". I thought it was a little weird but just ignored it. There was a 21 year old guy I worked with who got a little excited by it, and was disappointed when he found out that she gave kisses to everyone and not just him (he was probably hoping for some cougar action
). Still, I think it's a dumb thing to do. I mean, why are you sending me kisses, you're not my girlfriend.

Why is there so much blowback from people when asking for more gender & ethnic diversity in games?
This. That “proper time, proper place” mentality is broken because it assumes a much more fair world. When we talk about representation, something people often forget is that we live in a world where diversity is actively fought against. Framing the disenfranchised as “forcing” change, almost...

Anyone remember the controversy surrounding Kingdom Come Deliverance?
A developer made a game set in Bohemia,Europe but Resetera accused the dev of being racist because it featured mostly Native Europeans?
Yet according to this new post, apparently any resistance to diversity means your game is a Nazi. Who is going to put a stop to this?
Publishers seem happy gobbling this shit up from Resetera.

I want trans representation. Like, in any way. As a major part of a character's story, or the opposite, they're just a trans character and it barely comes up. I want it all. I couldn't care less about it being forced, earned, or whatever other "concern" talking points there are. I just want to...
I actually wondered about this just as a random thought one day and wondered how you could possibly do it in a way that's not offensive.
When you're in the character creator and it asks gender it has a "transwoman" option and it just plays a dramatic cutscene where the male -> female variable is changed as one morphs into the other rather than instantly changing?
Then every time the character is addressed there's a note like "Excuse me miss (Maya's gender was misidentified at birth) but you dropped this."
To do it in an offensive way I would have a transition tree that you level up and your character gradually transforms into the other gender as you reach it.
Although I'm pretty sure I saw a game labeled transphobic for letting you created say, bearded ladies. Probably Saints Row or something like that.
Also transphobic? Google Chrome for not realizing when I misspell transphobic and also marking transphobic as a misspelled word.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
I just imagined a Sailor Moon-style transformation where the guy's dong flashes different colors and opens up like a flower in bloom to create a vagina (or female penis; check your privilege), and I've realized that I do want to see this sort of representation in more games.

Oh god, don’t you dare ruin vaginas for me. Female penis has always been the clit and it always will be. That is a fact and you can’t #fakenews me.
The clit is the penis that never grew, and the taint is the vagina that never grew.

Jesus fucking christ, I find it difficult to get like 4/6 people for Destiny/Div 2 together from a pool of like 30. And these people have hours to chat about a mod policy on a message board. Fucking hell, go feel the wind on your face you bad nobheads.
Also, the guardian being banned - honestly their goal is to own something like wikipedia and have it as the 'source of truth' where ubiquity of mantra = truth. They are basically the Internet Ministry of Truth

When you feel someone is making inappropriate sexual advances, it is probably a good time to stop ending you messages with kisses though. Could help the person on the other side identify you really mean it and are not playful.I don't know, that whole adding "kisses" thing seems to be becoming quite common, and not just among young women.

...You just shot yourself in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about PoC culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is on Neogaf where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you say anything on Resetera, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is that PoCs, after hearing about this, are not going to want to browse this thread, nor will they browse anything on Neogaf. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Brap has alienated an entire market with this move.
Evilore, publicly apologize and mod Slayven or you can kiss your business goodbye.

it's just so bizarre they tried to turn him into some "pansexual" freak who fucks his own spaceship. dude only ever hit on Leia in ESB, yet because Kasdan answered a loaded question in an interview somewhere, history has been changed, now the narrative is he was always some horndog gender fluid slut who wanted to screw anything with a hole. the racial stereotype of the black man as the ultimate sex maniac is unfortunately being used by self styled allies here so they can score a win for themselves.
the funny thing is, i have no idea why they are happy, or celebrating this at all. the guy said the two words. you are validated by a celebrity saying your buzzwords in an interview in Esquire magazine! clap like a baby seal, i guess, cos he said the magic words.
maybe the "films for children" line is true after all.

Oh come on! I actually got a bit of a chuckle from that post. FeistyBoots may likely be an advocate for gender-fluid folks but they certaintly aren't "joke-fluid"!
Get that huge fucking stick out of your ass Fiesty, after all these years it must be causing some severe bowel damage by now.
Don't worry Feisty, we've got a whambulance full to the brim with tear absorbant sheets on their way to your house right now!
And an express box of these for being such a huge fucking pussy. The bleeding should stop eventually. The cramps, tenderness and the fluid retention though? That's a different story!

most recently i've seen them just pepper threads with "Why is everyone miserable and cynical? Must suck to go through life hating everything" because you don't like the thing they like. you can't just like or dislike something, if you dislike a thing, there is something actually wrong with you! consumer virtue signalling 101.
they constantly project. it makes them miserable to think they don't have complete and total cultural hegemony, so they have to project it out, and act like YOU are the miserable one, because you aren't going apeshit over some 80 year old saying a few buzzwords in anticipation of a media cycle.

‘World’s first’ festival for women, trans and non-binary people set to return despite being ruled discriminatory against cis men
Statement Festival is a newly launched festival that was created as a response to the countless sexual assaults towards women that has occurred at several music festivals. The festival will be Sweden’s first large music festival free from cis-men, and the purpose is to make a clear statement...

That’s insane. So he is saying. (And Reee are agreeing) that being soft is not a masculine trait? So much for getting rid of toxic masculinity. I’m soft as shit with my kids and other people I love. I don’t consider it a feminine trait. I consider it being comfortably masculine.

Look at the new moderation policies in action, folks. (Fuck, sorry. I meant "folx", really I did.) Handing out bans left and right in the Billy Dee Williams thread for harmless comments and flat out closing the concert thread because people are showing the dreaded wrongthink. These morons bitched that nobody participated in trans threads before, it's only going to get worse for them now. Have fun smashing that report button and crying that people are invalidating your special little identity, though.
