Did anybody else used to think this morbidly obese fuck was based? Just watched his THQNordic shitfit and the fact that he uses the term “Free Speechers” like it’s a dirty word shows just how pozzed this blimp of a man has become.
This man has no talent at making games, hell even Yahtzee used to make 8bit adventure games, what has this fat fuck ever done? Here’s hoping he has a major coronary event in the next year or so due to the sheer volume of burger grease that flows through his arteries. The volume of lumber required for his coffin would stimulate the industry for years to come
This type of thing is why I stopped watching this fat fuck or giving a shit about his opinion.
Caleb Jackson
if you ever at some point in your life have respected this man you honestly don't belong here also stop with the ecelebs thread fucking retard

I'm here to bring a pallet cleanser for those who can't stand seeing this stain on humanity. youtube.com/watch?v=YTYkUvaEsio
Evan Martinez
wow totalbiscuit really changed over the years
Brody Gutierrez
I still can't get over the fact that they had an AMA on fucking infinite
Even if they had it here they'd get their asses completely blasted, what makes a company do this shit there instead of anywhere else
Noah Phillips
>the fact that he uses the term “Free Speechers” like it’s a dirty word this kind of shit is pretty common since a crowd developed that shouts about free speech all the god damn time in relation to every little thing that bothers them but doesn't really give a shit when actual speech issues for anyone else come up. The kind of person who will defend with every fiber of his being his right to say nigger when and where he pleases but doesn't see any issue with government officials threatening to sue the press for saying things they dont like
Daniel Lee
Whilst retarded I’m sick and tired of companies towing the line, take a fucking risk for once. Why do reddit, tumblr and Twitter get exclusive rights to AMAs? Oh right cos that’s where all the deadbeat faggot normies are.
Levi Hughes
normal people have no idea what 8gag is
Adam Barnes
the only reason i ever respected this guy is because he actually gave Fallot NV an 9/10 when it came out and actually played the game unlike most of the other journalist wich were too busy complaining about the bugs to appreciate the gem they were playing, nowadays i don't give a damn about him or his opinions
>sue the press for saying things they don't like This is wrong and bad. >criticising the press for making shit and all around being trash This is correct and good. Freedom of the press does not preclude criticism of it.
Mason White
I have a problem when the press that love to be entitled to their free speech like to doxx and harass people for a story. I have a problem when they are repeatedly proven to lie and twist words to make a story. I have a problem when they say that white people shouldn’t be entitled to being defended from hate crimes. And I have a serious problem with faggots like you who defend news corporations despite all this under the veil of “free speech” that you know is bought and paid for.
Carson Thomas
government officials threatening to sue you isn't a speech issue tubby
Carter Cooper
when you establish a standard that everything a journalist writes has to be proveable in a courtroom setting thats an issue. Not to mention anyone publishing anything about the government has to be ready to be in multiple multi-year lawsuits at once and be able to cover that cost at all times. Thats an unreasonable burden to place on those people who are supposed to be "checking" the government to some extent by being watchdogs. Freedom of the press is one of the most important aspects of freedom of speech in the practicality of the real world
Angel Hall
haha holy shit you want to be able to libel people even by the incredibly difficult standard for libeling public figures without having to compensate them for damages because you think you are a check on the state and not some billionaire's partisan whore amazing
Ian James
He may have created some new buzzwords for Yea Forums to use though. "walkback" = when a corporation does something stupid, and everyone knows they will be issuing an apology soon.
Camden Lewis
do you think that's a neologism or something or is there a ironing that i would have to waste a portion of my life watching his shit videos to grok here
Evan Reyes
This fat fuck has always been onions.
Joshua Reed
>some billionaire's partisan whore yeah, like those ami faggots trump has working for him
John Perez
always thought he was a joke, but he did journo from the time when journalism contributed to making better games, rather being a publisher puppet, so 1 in 100 of his points referenced something that was valid. but like all secret racists and rapists they become consumed with spouting SJW language.
when the Hindenburg moment comes for the meek, the circle becomes complete. seeing the story arc come to a close, keeps me checking in from time to time.
Lucas Clark
wtf your conception of a free speech is totally not stupid now
Evan Williams
Even with him falling for the "late stage capitalism" meme he still pretty good, Yea Forums just doesn't like him because he isn't muh politically incorrect
Jaxon Garcia
I mean he's not wrong; going onto Yea Forums or 4+4 just to show how based and redpilled you are will just result in a bunch of retards complaining and making videos about you. The guy at THQNordic's first and only fucking job is making the company look good and he failed miserably at it. If I was gonna make a game I would never fucking post here let alone 8 are you joking?
*unfunny comedy sketch of nostalgia critic tier inside jokes* *theme song* *autistic rambling about something off topic for 2 minutes* AAA Bad! Gamergate Bad! American left wing politics good! Microtransactions Bad! Thank God for me *outro*
Used to enjoy his content, but eventually got tired of his whole routine. Since I stopped following his stuff he's increasingly shown his SJW colors, so I'm glad I stopped when I did It's fine. The Podtoid era of Sterling, Jonathan Holmes, Conrad, and Max will always be remembered fondly
Joseph Richardson
Everyone supports limiting free speech, at least to some degree.
Austin Murphy
Don't watch his videos, I sacrificed half my brain to watch them so you don't have to.
Andrew Green
i just checked through their catalogue and bought a bunch of stuff, because its alot of based 9/10 games that have been poorly marketed. so they earned a few $ from me atleast.
Nolan Watson
Haven't watched the THQ Nordic video, how much does he try to make them sink? 'cause it seems to me things have calmed down already.
Michael Diaz
>caring about the opinion of a known cuck. >ever.
No thanks.
Carter King
I can see why "free speechers” is used negatively as it implies people who think they're within their rights to protest or scream "nigger" as loud as they like at the Costco without getting kicked out. The same people who don't get worked up and a governor wanting actual censorship for games or Devotion being pulled.
Gavin Richardson
When did the press doxx someone? You're confusing the press with twitterfags.
Jacob Perez
He makes more money than probably all of you combined. Doesn't matter if you don't like him, this man changes the industry and is awesome to watch anyway

Jacob Campbell
I don't think this made them look bad, I think it was a good campaign...most people didn't care, the /pol/ retards will say that they were "based" and in exchange they just need to say "i'm sorry xD" so that twitter stop overreacting
Ryder Foster
i got a bigger dick than you
Evan Hernandez
>The same people who don't get worked up ABOUT a governor wanting actual censorship for games or Devotion being pulled. My mistake.
Jackson Mitchell
How any of those poor people at Destructoid managed to work with this fat bastard is beyond me. I just can't picture him being any fun to be around. He seems like a guy that only talks about himself
Josiah Ward
You just reminded me that I'm subscribed to this subhuman.
Josiah Gomez
>This man has no talent at making games I don't agree with his opinions either but there are better ways to criticize someone than "He can't make games so he shouldn't judge games". It's a bad argument.
Isaiah Williams
I refuse to respect anyone who gives Vanquish a 3. He also gave Hellblade a 1 because of his own ineptitude at playing games.
Hunter Nguyen
>how pozzed this blimp of a man has become he's always been a communist faggot. he's always been a missionary for cultural marxism, it's just that his pretenses to moderation have slipped as the culture war has become so heated (and the left so extreme, openly communist) in the past several years.
>privilege goggles.
Josiah Johnson
>“Free Speechers” Holy FUCKING shit the absolute state of this dirty fat cuck
Carter Sanchez
This. It's like they were just baiting by being the bad boys too based for reddit so they used badchan.
Admin of cripplechan's Yea Forums simply asked them. Its that simple a reason. And companies are well aware that people do talk about video games in imageboards.
Dylan White
What did he mean by free speeches?
Ryder Campbell
>when you establish a standard that everything a journalist writes has to be proveable in a courtroom setting thats an issue. No it isnt. They are journalists. Its their job to not lie to you. The same way you can sue a chef for contaminating your food, you can sue a journalist for lying unless they quickly retract the lie and promise to fix it. This is quality assurance, a journalist who lies is not a journalist at all.
Jordan Turner
Why does literally almost everyone on the Internet think that his opinion is the be all end all of a game being good or not? What makes him so special?
Joshua Rogers
why would i care what a governor wants? do you understand that public officials are entitled to have and express opinions that you don't like? you want to pretend to care about "free speech," but what exactly do you want to do be done to someone with an opinion you don't like, exactly? if people want to vote for a governor that wants to ban the bible that's their prerogative. he doesn't have the legal authority to do it, but he can want it with the fullness of his heart. and it's true i don't really want to listen to you whine about a fascist state being buttmad about taiwanese mocking their leader. the chinese have people in concentration camps, my dude. they are not nice guys, but you sure as fuck didn't care enough to not relocate production to their shithole.
John Jenkins
Yeah, I was tricked for a moment into liking him because he made 45 videos shitting on EA and lootboxes, which are valid and reasonable targets for hate. But he's not fucking reasonable at all, he's a pro-censorship SJW at heart, who literally thinks people should be banned from _talking_ to people he deems "problematic". Fuck him to hell.
Josiah Miller

and this right here is the issue. This is a blatant free speech issue to anyone with even a modicum of knowledge about this topic and no professional in the field would ever disagree. But its ok to not be educated on political/legal theory, most people arent because they dont have the time energy or need. But when people who dont know shit all the sudden have a very intense opinion that they try to convince other of you get nonsense spread everywhere.
Wyatt Jackson

Julian Russell
Go ahead and unsubscribe he doesn't need you there are already a million others waiting to take your place and in the grand scheme of things you're nobody and your petulant,knee-jerk reactionary,pathetic act of rebelion means nothing. You're on the wrong side of history because you have made all the wrong choices this far and this is nothing more than simply another nail in your own coffin kiddo.
this is a common problem when discussing this issue, that people dont have a good grasp of the realities of the court system. When i said its an issue if things need to be proveable in court what you heard was >its a problem if journalists need to have evidence and cant say whatever they want about whoever with no consequences but the problem is courts dont prove truth, they prove whose lawyer was more skilled and had more money backing them up. Our court system is exceedingly abusable for people with money who can simply run the other side dry and win by default among many tactics. Court cases also take years to properly adjudicate meaning if this becomes the standard its very possible for a newspaper to have 10+ cases going at a time all of which require vast sums of money and if any one of them fails could sink the institution.
the real world is complex and comes with a lot of friction
James Bell

>You're obviously not watching the same MSM I am We can only hope. Enjoy that crap you willingly swallow.
Jace Foster
Why is this thread here? Yea Forums is THE most ironic place to whine about freedom of speech.
Owen Rogers
It sounds like you don't even know what the issue is. He made a half-hour video shitting on THQ Nordic for holding an AMA at cripplechan. Nobody said nigger (not that there's anything wrong with that). Nobody did anything outside ordinary marketing. But it happened on a website Blimp doesn't like, and that means Blimp and his friends at Resetera are on THQ like rabid dogs.
That was seriously their whole crime. Sending a marketing rep to do normal marketing stunt at a website they have deemed "evil". Apparently THQ are not allowed to speak to people unless they get a signed permit from Blimp.

James Young
A person who advocates silencing someone else for their views or "reputation" alone outside of their own jurisdiction is advocating censorship. That is a very simple fact. Censorship can be practiced by an individual as well, not just governments. Anyone else claiming different is dishonest and unaware of what the term itself means.
Juan Myers
This is a situation where the corporation unironically did nothing wrong.
Mason Murphy
Are you saying you don't watch MSM you just theorize about the frequent doxxing they do and come here and post it as fact?
Daniel Rodriguez
>but the problem is courts dont prove truth, they prove whose lawyer was more skilled and had more money backing them up. But currently they are the best system we have to expose liars and get them punished for it properly. There is no better alternative set in place so arguing about its deficiencies as something that would illegitimize the whole process is stupid.
Owen Hill
youre one big mac away from a heart attack you fat fuck.
Jace Hill
>“Free Speechers” He uses the term because every nigger that actually claims to care about this immediately falls silent when it gets attacked from their own side/tribe. This applies to both the left and the right.
Michael Walker
Jim absolutely frequents here. At least lurking, probably posting. I wouldn't be too surprised if he frequented at cripplechan too.
Didn't he give breath of the wild like a 5 for having weapon durability and then got pissy at people calling him out for just trying to give the game a low score for attention and not actual criticism?
Ian Morris
"free speech" does not mean what you think it means. I bet you think all the "evidence" you see in /pol/ threads is actually real, too.

Jacob Gomez

Eli Martin
But when you're in someone else's store where it is allowed and you demand that he should be kicked out or you would smear the place as racist, you're a censorship advocate. Their property, their rules. If you lie about their property in an attempt to smear them and to cause them financial damage, you are liable for a libel case.
Isaac Brown
I'm not going to argue that banning people for saying nigger is or isn't censorship. It's like prohibiting bad language at school or calling your manager a stupid fucking bitch at work. Call it censorship, but it makes sense and wasn't a big issue for most people in this thread until AAA games started being exclusively on privately owned servers and your access wasn't guaranteed.
Landon Davis
It's so unfortunate that /pol/tards and the alt right had to turn the idea of free speech into a joke among almost everyone else. What's worse is that they didn't even give a shit about free speech in the end. They'd screech over minorities and call for violence then claim they were protected under free speech, then go on to call for the censorship of those who talk bad about them (for example, that whole Colbert "controversy"). I hope we can reclaim that phrase soon, but as long as these mongoloids exist then people will have a reasonable excuse for mocking those who want freedom of speech.
Evan Lopez
hes a fucking brit. they're the second most cucked nation at the moment right after sweden
Dominic Harris
damn liberals have gone full corporate slaves now
Gabriel Cruz
no he uses that term because his political tribe literally does not believe in free expression, which you can see from polling them, and, as you can clearly see from their mental gymnastics, will conflate with immunity to torts, and one can only imagine, mustering temporary outrage that the people's republic of china, where many of their consumer electronics come from and return to for "recycling," is actually a bad place
Lucas Ross
What are you talking about? Do you want people to censor themselves and not voice concern with the retard screaming "nigger"?
Christian Gomez
>I'm sorry, was Jim sterling's opinion supposed to matter?
When judging the character of Jim Sterling, his held and expressed opinions absolutely matter. His character turns out to be a shitbag.
Nathaniel Brown
Dsicord trannies have arrived, expect lots of posts whining about /pol/ and how rich corporations are the victim.
Brandon Jenkins
That's an argument for tort reform (something I think most people are 100% in favor of), not an argument for granting megacorps like CNN sacred untouchable status.
Aiden Allen
So basically you're saying the poor little corporation should be free of any consequence?
I'm free to boycott or raise awareness against a corporation if I don't agree with their business practices or brand beliefs
I am not suggesting censorship of them at all, I am just boycotting it because I don't agree with them
Isaac Williams
The counter argument is that free-speech should be a principle we all strive to uphold, irrespective of the sphere you're using it in. Fifty years from now, the values of the day will be radically different to what they are now. It'd be nice though if old man me wouldn't get attacked or bullied for my old timey values and speech
Landon Moore
liberals invented them, but this is not really that, because if you wanted to deny service to blacks in "your" store, the private ownership bullshit will evaporate in favor the rhetoric of the protected class
John King
ok so imagine you are a journalist publishing a piece about the crimes of Hilary Clinton. This is shit you've been researching for months and you know all the evidence like the back of your hand. But the president just "opened up the libel laws" like he has been talking about since the campaign. Lets say you publish that piece and get a few minor details wrong due to bad/conflicting sources, no malice just a few honest mistakes that dont make a lot of difference in the grand scheme. Hilary sues you and now the piece is taken off line and you are in a court battle for the next 2 years at least praying you dont run out of money along the way with your career and everything you own on the line. It doesnt matter that her case is tenuous and built off of minor technical details, you are in it for the long haul unless you recant EVERYTHING you said.
Given that situation, how likely do you think it is other journalists take up the mantle and do pieces on the horrible things Hillary did? Id venture to say not many. And now Hillary has effectively silenced media criticism through the implicit threat of the court and huge swaths of people wont hear about any of the horrid shit she did.
Grayson Adams
That guy would change his tune the instant if his own logic was used against him.
Free speech is an umbrella that covers all people, yet everybody is constantly trying to yank it away from people they don't like using whatever loophole they can conceive.
Juan Garcia
I wonder why they do it when we all know where they're from
Jason Stewart
Only leftards do, retard. Hitler loved real free speech.
Daniel Moore
I'm not staying on this thread, but I want to just say if I ever saw this fat degenerate fuck in public, I would unironically spit in his face
Your boycott loses its legs and becomes eligible for the police to disperse and put a gag order if you start making up lies about the corporation. Especially if you go as far as throw libelous accusations on individuals within that corporation. Thats the law.
If you boycott McDonalds because the food is shit and "muh environment", you have the right to do that. If you boycott McDonalds saying that its protecting a pedophile and you name their CEO in your accusations, you better damn hope he really is exposed as one or you're in trouble with the law.
Tyler Hughes
It's annoying in shit like souls games but honestly breath of the wild did it pretty well since the game would've gotten pretty boring fast with just one melee weapon. It actually feels pretty good to switch it up between swords, axes, hammers, spears, ect.

Normally I'd agree with you but in 2019 I believe press has become a purely damaging force in the world, and all journalists should be jailed just for being journalists. I can't remember a single time in the past 5 years that I've been happy to see press do _anything_.
It's not a new concept, it's just shut in teenage gamers have never really experienced it before
The world has rules, you can't call your manager a fat cunt, you can't scream I'm gonna blow up this plane whilst flying, and you can't go into a man's house, insult his family and expect him not to punch you and throw you out
True free speech has never ever existed for the majority of the population
Ryan Rodriguez
He's right.But at the same time, if you tell people they cant say something somewhere, and then they leave and gather with other people to agree with them, only for YOU to get mad, follow them to their new circles, and then tell them that they can't say that thing. Then it isn't "You're not shielded from consequences" then its just being a wannabe authoritarian megafag that doesn't want people to disagree with you at all. Criticism is perfectly fine. But telling people what they can and cant say just because you think you're on the "Right side of history" is pretty fucking retarded, considering they go out of their way to try and cancel platforms that -don't- try to moderate everything everyone says.
the press is the only thing in this world stopping the cheetoh in the white house from destroying it
Jaxon Ward
I mean, 8 chan fucking sucks. If you want to do an AMA somewhere that's like, 'edgy' but not really you do it here. The only people who go to 8 chan are pedophiles and people who were booted from Yea Forums for being too fucking retarded to live

dont get me wrong, it makes me pretty uncomfortable being put in a position where im argueing in favor of CNN FOX and MSM. I spent all of the Obama years despiseing these networks for being partisan hacks perpetuating this bullshit 24 hour news cycle. But i think it makes me more uncomfortable when a billionaire with argueably the most powerful political office in the world talks about limiting what journalists can say about him.
and to bring this back the the topic of the thread, seems a bit odd that the free speech absolutists think this is fine

But in the context of this thread the accusations are not real but largely fabricated. Boycotting cripplechan because it has CP is legit if it actually has CP. But it doesn't. Meanwhile Jim bitches about it on Youtube, a place that has more CP than all imageboards combined and the fat fucking hypocrite is fine with it. He's probably a kiddy fiddler himself.

Xavier Cooper
>I mean, 8 chan fucking sucks. If you want to do an AMA somewhere that's like, 'edgy' but not really you do it here
Yea Forums is a horrible place for an AMA because it's uncontrollable. You can't keep a thread clean and orderly in Yea Forums, not unless you can talk Hiro into giving you an exclusive board for the duration of the AMA. In Eight you can create your own board without having to ask for a permission, and board admins have moderation tools that help control the flow of shit so it's structurally far better suited for that.
Christopher Ramirez
See It's nothing to do with the alt-right abusing the term, it's to do with the fact that the modern left is openly and proudly opposed to free speech. The alt-right is just a convenient scapegoat, a way for them to say "see this is why we need censorship, so those mean nasty nazis can't get you". If it weren't the alt-right it'd be something else. People who want power and control over others will always come up with some excuse for why they should be given it.
Eli Gray
>Wealth distribution was actually better in the 1600s than it is in 2019 >rich people made sure to monetize the shit out of the games industry so they can buy an advantage over the poor even in games.
Sure, but you should also try your hardest not to be a massively vindictive cunt about those who break said 'rules' or cause some offense. Doxxing, bullying people out of work, threatening families, destroying their ability to earn revenue, etc. over your social or political disagreements is ridiculous. You upset me and I'll tell you to get fucked or something

i actually think boycotting a site that relies on user-generated content because it "has cp" in the abstract is actually kind of stupid, because they all do for various periods of time, because people spam that shit through botnets. it would a different matter if the site intentionally contained it (this would be a crime by the way) or if it was so plagued by it that you couldn't avoid it due to staffing issues, but just the pretense of purity when one uses social media sites is disingenuous.

actually that would have problems far more reaching than just speech limitations. you can't prevent public officials from seeking redress. are you actually insane the issue at hand is that you seem to think donald trump can't tell people that he will sue them (he can in fact tell them that he is a unicorn and that the ghost of benjamin franklin commands him to sue mickey mouse for libel) i sure am glad i've logged on to the "knows a lot about political theory and the law" hours

>it's to do with the fact that the modern left is openly and proudly opposed to free speech the only way i can imagine someone getting this opinion is if the majority of their political information comes from internet forums and breitbart i.e. if a significant amount of your political diet involves twitter and tumblr screencaps.
Parker Parker
I forgot how good this song was. I ended up listening to the entire 17 minuets of it.
Benjamin Turner
>they don't like it when they get censored AND they don't like it when we insult them THE HYPOCRISY!!
He was fine when he first started writing for Destructoid, maybe a bit contrarian, but he championed weird games like Deadly Premonition and didn't take himself too seriously. Eventually his wife opened his eyes to the horrors of institutionalized misogyny and he slowly became more and more insufferable.
Noah Taylor
they did it on 8 chan's Yea Forums board though, which lol
Oliver Martinez
>the issue at hand is that you seem to think donald trump can't tell people that he will sue them (he can in fact tell them that he is a unicorn and that the ghost of benjamin franklin commands him to sue mickey mouse for libel)
im confused, is the argument that trump should be allowed to say the words "i am going to sue you" or that we should actually "open up the libel laws"?
Mason Edwards
only one side talks about banning "hate speech" and it isn't the drumpfkins
Anthony Brooks
If this song isn't in smash I'll be sad
Jackson Reyes
Recent would be the freshest and easiest to find. Isn't it telling that rather than providing any examples you fixate on vague language?
Chase Turner
he can say either of those things donald trump doesn't even control the branch of government that he has constitutional authority over and you are playing in your imaginary land where he has legally changed libel laws to favor him ways that you have conjured in your fever dreams
David Jenkins
the fact you say "recently" is worrisome enough but here you go
We're in the middle of the ending of a gilded age, and all its subtle censorial restrictions are unraveling faster than new ones can be put into place. There's more legitimate risk of new secessionism and Civil War in the USA than any time in the past few generations.
I don't respect anyone who cannot feed themselves properly.
Oliver Watson
yeah well sometime right wing politicians get mad when the media act as political soldiers for the left and create endless hatchet job articles against them and only them based on flimsy evidence in a deliberate attempt to ruin their careers and reputations and occasionally suggest they should be punished in some way for it even though nothing ever comes from it so who's the REAL censorship advocate now huh?
Oliver Wood
He was always a massive cuck and disgusting faggot
Yeah, well that's a poor idea on their part. They should have created a new board for that AMA and set it so that posts have to be approved by a mod before they show. That way they'd come across squeaky-clean.
Except for the awful, horrible crime of talking to people who are "guilty by association" I guess. You're not supposed to talk to people if they're not on the Approved List, not even to try to sell them things.
Ryder Thompson
Because democracy is all about getting you to engage and vote. No no it's not because your vote matters, it's because if you vote you're complicit in the state crimes and you will be less likely to revolt against them.
Gavin Young
yep, you get your political info from twitter screencaps. Random fucks in the internet love to talk about it but they get nothing more than lip service when anyone with any actual power even decides to acknowledge it. The crazy parts of the left who talk about intersectionality and hate speech are generally somewhat fringe, but the cray parts of the right who talk about how abortion is murder and we need to defend isreal at all costs because litteral Jesus is coming back in a few years, are sitting in congress.
Lucas Cook

Brody Russell

Brayden Gray
Why bother at that point, though? The whole point of an AMA is to get audience attention and doing that on a board you made yourself defeats the point a bit.
I still say it would have been better to do it here.
Christian Gonzalez
i was discussing the dangers of changing the law in the ways that Trump has talked about, specifically in the context of supposed free speech warriors whom you would think would vehemently oppose something like this
>donald trump doesn't even control the branch of government that he has constitutional authority over are you one of those "deep state" people?
Caleb Thomas
Twitter isn't MSM because clickbait picks up tweets for outrage bait.
Austin Stewart
The only way I can imagine a being having their head as firmly in the sand as you is an ostrich.
I would almost a welcome a world war three at this point. Sure it has downsides (I would probably die in a nuclear holocaust) but there's also major upsides (millions and millions of people I hate would also die). That's seeming like an increasingly fair trade by the day.
Owen Hernandez
yes, if you oppose abortions of all kinds you are a retard who knows nothing of the topic
Sebastian Robinson
>if you don't support mass eugenics then you're retarded
cant beat that logic i guess
Logan Peterson
no you were talking about how donald trump threatening to sue people is a free speech issue (because you are insane) and to do this you have chosen to live in an alternate universe where donald trump has instituted chilling new laws (because you are insane) >are you one of those "deep state" people? are you for real dude
Abortion is great though, it keeps a certain race in check so we can safely harvest votes from them
Dylan Reed

tell that all the state DA's that have tried to convict people of hate crimes based on speech
Justin Wright
Only bad thing about eugenics is that we stopped doing it.
Austin Edwards
Free speech is a protection from the government, not the ability to demand private companies and individuals to give you a platform on services and property they own.
Which MSM used his name? The news channels talked about the controversy and the video as "new details" emerged, but from what I remember none of those details used his name. They found the school because he was with his school on a trip and they were even recorded doing their fight song.
Jace Mitchell
>knows nothing of the topic What topic? Life does start when a sperm meets an egg, that's not a religious belief, that is how science views it. I'm a chemist, I studied biology in my university, I know that's a fact.

No it's not. Free speech is the principle that people should be allowed to speak their minds without fear of reprisal. The reason this is seen as a good thing is because airing out grievances is less dangerous than letting the pressure build up until people kill you out of sheer frustration with your bullshit.

David Jones
no, my line is that unwanted children are an issue humanity has been dealing with forever the same way we have dealt with the measles or poor eyesight. Modern technology has given us the ability to fix these things and improve the lives of people in doing so. Unwanted/unplanned kids grow up in worse homes with worse or absent parents and thus have worse outcomes upon growing up. If Shaniqua got knocked up at age 16 and she wants an abortion id much rather her get it so i dont have to pay for that kid to grow up and be in prison. It makes for better outcomes for both the person getting the abortion and society at large.
I avoid the morality debate because its pointless. If you think there is no moral difference between a girl taking a pill at 8 weeks, and literally stabbing a baby then theres nothing i can say to convince you on an ethical level. What i can hope i to demonstrate that there is a measurable predictable real life benefit to making the option available to people who want it
Christian Ward

Then free speech does not and never has existed, so it's pretty silly to bring it up as a reason why something is or is not allowed. If you say something, other people are going to react to that with their own freedoms, including their freedom of associate and their freedom to dispose of their private assets as they see fit.

The funny thing is that Anita said "playing video games won't turn you into a misogynist".

This, people associating being "woke" with multinational corporations who have done marketing analysis and decided that "censorship" will increase sales and as such they're now basically Bolsheviks is abject insanity. They don't do ANYTHING unless they think it will benefit their shareholders. So you suddenly think that they're just letting people hurt their bottom line to sate a political agenda? it's inanity.
Dominic Taylor
>*wild thornberries accent* NYEH HEH HEH LEWT BAWKSES BAD CAWKOWLD YER WOIFE GEWD what did he mean by this?
Trump looked at video game censorship as a way of taking action against school shooting because gun rights were off the table (as they should be) and mental health is something his party struggles to fund.
Adam Ortiz
Ignorance. Probably had no idea what the reputation of cripplechan was and simply agreed when asked.
Ideally there should have been no controversy but since infinite was created because of GG it got all the SJWs up in arms. I'm curious what /leftypol/ niggers think of their fellow leftists wanting to shut that site down.

>look at mr big government over here wants to practically nationalize social media
It is FAR better for government to have control over social media than an unaccountable, private company having it. Governments at least have some form of checks and balances in effect.

their has been a lot of study on the effect of media on people and i highly suggest doing some reading on the topic. In particular this subject has seen TONS of love because its tangentially asking "how does advertising work and how can we do it better" which means lots of companies have sunk tens of millions of dollars into it.
The general modern thinking is that its complicated. We all know theres not a 1-1 correlation i.e. watching a war movie neither causes mass shooting nor a will to invade X nation. But if the military is portrayed positively in the film that can induce an emotional connection of sorts and maybe give someone who was already prone to it a good feeling associated with the military. Maybe that makes that person just a little more pro-military when they talk with their friends, or advise a younger family member they might want to think about enlisting. I use the military as an example because they have taken notice of this and actively give money to any movie that will portray them favorably. Famously all the transformers movies are funded in large part with our tax dollars and the Avengers movie was denied subsidy for obvious reasons.
So in terms of womens portrayals in video games, its not that seeing peach getting stolen by bowser makes someone hate women, its that media reinforcing what some people see as harmful stereotypes just perpetuates it in our culture.
But honestly, just go out and do some reading, dont listen to some jackass on Yea Forums.
Nolan Davis
Nah. It pretends it expects numbers to go up forever, but the people in charge know that they just have to keep selling that line to shareholders as long as possible, then get a golden parachute and bail to some other company or industry when it starts to collapse.

There is no way any CEO could be worth more than everyone combined who created your product, the thing that produces your wealth CEO is just a guy running the books, nothing more, and should be paid according to his low importance.

Ok, is his Sterdust wrestling thing just skits for his show? Or was it for a legit pro wrestling circuit?
Evan Myers
based
James Jackson
Pretty sure it's a legit local wrestling gig. There are more of them than you might think, and he's probably putting some decent money and exposure into it.
Gavin Phillips
Pretty ironic how leftists have their own religious doctrine and concept of sin, even original sin (being born white and male).
I wonder if some of them are aware of the similarities,

>if you're boycoted, show canceled, or banned, your free speech rights aren't being violated wtf is this shit? some double thinking bullshit?
do you think this is clever or something jim makes more from his patreon than the median household earns in year, and that isn't his only revenue stream actually equalizing human resource consumption would mean a significant decrease in jim's standard of living, which he actually would oppose in about two seconds of its likelihood reaching certainty

Source? >Matthew 5:27-28 >27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’[a] 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Hudson Green
those that are now leftists would have been religious zealots back in the middle ages. they are the same personalities. they see themselves as enforcers of holy moral law.
Oliver Murphy
he walked on them because they were pro gamergate or at least pro discussion.
Henry Howard
No it's just you. You're just so redpilled.
Tyler Roberts
true, the difference is that democracies loosened up their media control more, after the war was over meanwhile commies went full retard even during the peace

>vast majority of modern communists care deeply about feminism and trannies
If you've talked to any true communists you would know we are just using them as useful idiots once the exchange of power is complete those genetic/mental dead-ends are all getting lined up against a massive ditch. No way in hell we are going to allow our resources to be wasted on their mental health classes and gender surgeries/hormones. Especially since most will never reproduce and produce new soldiers and workers.
Well it only makes sense, they need structure in their lives and religion isn't popular anymore. Soccer mom types had to go somewhere and take their orbiters with them. Not that those types are moms anymore to anything but cats but you get the idea.
Easton Morris
you don't to be a monk, just have some fucking standards. short of actual violent revolution (and we all know that wont happen) the only meaningful protest today is a boycott.
Dylan Hill
This, honestly.
Yea Forums is full of edgy memers, 99% of people shitposting are just using dark humor, not actually being serious.
Infinity chan is full of actual pedophiles and racists.
I mean, Stalin was in the process of taking over and then did take over. We can't say what Lenin would have done, but his record on trying to create better equality was on a faster pace than the west.
Fuck off tankie. Go back to wanking over ice picks and calling people who join the Workers Revolutionary Party instead of the Revolutionary Workers Party trots.

Governments pressure social media websites to ban people, just take a look at the EU. It's often government censorship with 1 hoop that needs to be jumped through.
Angel Ortiz
It took me a few videos, but I ultimately came to the conclusion that the man was at best a slow echo chamber just repeating common sense things the rest of the internet was on about as much as 6 months prior to the fact. Then lay down the fact that reviews were being held to multiple, conflicting standards, and somehow lauded himself as being in the right (whether in "character" or no). At best he's an echo chamber of fairly obvious common sense points, at worst he's a hypocrite.
Isaac Gonzalez
again i have to point out that only extremely online people know what 8gag is no one is like, "Yeah I'm going to do an AMA on gamergay central so I have to listen to insane goons contact my family members on shitbook and tell them I am a Nazi." someone convinced them to do an ama on website that next to one on earth knows exists

Because they are game devs. Being a marketable demographic makes people make games certain ways while also in consideration to existing conservative sensibilities of western countries and how Walmart won't carry certain games.
Ryan Thomas
sums up lefties perfectly. They worship conformity and "science" without actually understanding science at all.
James Anderson
I remember him saying he got stuck on Father Gascogne for 3 whole days on twitter.
I can understand completely just not being any good at games, but when your entire existence and literal livelihood focus around them, I expect some level of skill to be at play here. I know people that play games once a month for an hour or two that could beat FG in under a few hours.
His physical state by this point is probably so mutilated though that even the idea of reacting somewhat quickly is lost to him, I try to imagine this man accomplishing anything, even somewhat rapidly tapping buttons, and being unable to do it without extreme stress. You can even hear him losing his breath during his videos now, the simple act of recording audio at a normal pace is physically exhausting to him.
Jason Young
Oh for fucks sake
Fetuses aren’t people until there’s a pulse

Go back to your fantasies about revolution in the west being practical and pretending to have read more Marx than you have.
I'll be here working within the practical reality while standing true to Critique of the Gotha Program.

>this kind of shit is pretty common since a crowd developed that shouts about free speech all the god damn time in relation to every little thing that bothers them but doesn't really give a shit when actual speech issues for anyone else come up. You are talking about Sargon of Dead child and the skeptics. Not real free speach advocates.
>but hates supporting these children born into shit situations even more
If only someone were to encourage personal responsibility for their actions instead of dropping their mistakes and welfare onto the conscience and pocketbooks of everyone else.

Jordan Diaz
In my experience in confessing, priests consider stuff like these venial sins (not actual sins, just things you should avoid but are not relevant enough to characterize a separation from God).
Bentley Sullivan
I thought the point of this site was to escape a hivemind community. Yeah he's overall a faggot, but him and DSP make good points once or twice per year.
