Jeff is on social media. Jeff says he will stream on twitch. Ergo, Jeff is a streamer.

As a streamer he is like a celebrity and we are allowed to discuss his rises and falls.

Snark is allowed on Resetera against streamers, so why not here? 

Blueballs forever disproven.

And nepnep is a game dev, so also a public figure we can discuss on our gaming forum 🐴

B-dubs runs a once profitable gaming website that game developers for a time visited. He's practically part of the gaming press. Journalists are public figures and should be discussed on our gaming forum.

I had the misfortune of reading the Politico "doomed" article. It's just dripping with misogynistic framing—if she were a man nobody would be making hay out of this but because she's a woman and not meeting their expectations of appropriate feminine behavior, she's "doomed."

And no, the way she treated the staffer isn't appropriate, so miss me with accusations of defending her behavior. I'm not. The point is that the only reason it's a news story is because she's a woman.

Someone seriously arguing that the Katie Porter interview fiasco is a misogynist attack. Meanwhile Jeb Bush's campaign died after he said "Please clap" lmao

Where's the Era thread?!

Mamdani appeared on The Late Show alongside New York City Comptroller Brad Lander during the June Democratic primary. The two candidates had recently endorsed each other in hopes of shutting out Cuomo, a plan that ultimately worked. Ahead of their appearance, Colbert’s producers held a prep call with Mamdani, Lander, and their aides to go over some basic political questions about their positions. It seemed to go well enough, but right before they went on stage, producers threw a couple of curveballs at Mamdani. Per The New Yorker, hours before the segment, a group of prominent Jewish Zionists (the article only names Elie Wiesel’s son, Elisha) demanded that Colbert “grill” Mamdani on Israel. A Colbert producer thought of a “thumbs-up or thumbs-down” segment, as in “Thumbs-up or thumbs-down: Hamas. Thumbs-up or thumbs-down: a Palestinian state,” would do the trick. Mamdani was unimpressed. “I just couldn’t believe what was happening,” Mamdani told The New Yorker. “That a genocide could be distilled into a late-night game.”

Some rando comments:

Don’t agree that asking the first Muslim candidate for mayor whether he supports Hamas is well-meaning.

Is not a hard question, at all.  

ProPalestine demands others to (rightfully) shit on Netanyahu but saying “Hamas also suck ass” is a step too far.  

You don’t even need to like Israel, but admitting that “these group made the situation worse and the resistance was such a failure that Arab states called them to stop”.

I just finished it, that was the most nothing happened finale I've seen for a show in a while. It honestly killed any further interest I had left in James Gunn's DCU, it all just turns into a slurry of musical montages and the same humor.

Factually incorrect

The amount of people on Twitter who told themselves there would be a giant superhero cameo is kind of crazy.

Gunn says these last three episodes were his favorite things that he's done and have a bunch of surprises (objectively true) that he didn't want spoiled, and people build up these wild theories in their heads and get angry when they don't happen

This guy is too funny man

Is pew die pie alt right? I remember him making nazi "jokes" and using racial slurs but he is almost never mentioned. Is it the lack of political motivation that makes it more just racism than alt rightism?

He perpetuated the alt-right "reading books" meme (every alt-righter is obsessively reading books right now, btw, a good way to spot em) with his new video and even read typical alt-right books, including Fahrenheit 451, Aldous Huxley, Jordan Peterson.

Think you're slick, you fucking alt-right chud? I see you nazi bitch

You may disagree. But consider this: you’re factually wrong, actually.

It's interesting that you cannot actually refute the points and instantly go for personal attacks.

We have gone over simple and thorough refutations of all your "points" multiple times in this thread.
No one owes you a single further moment of logical retort.
You choose to ignore, and ignore, and ignored and repeat, and ignore, ad nauseum.
If you're so passionate about your point, why not try posting from your real account instead?
You're undermining your own semblance of genuine argument here from the outset with your alt / troll / whatever account.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

Ten warning signs of a potentially unsafe group/leader.

Absolute authoritarianism without meaningful accountability.
No tolerance for questions or critical inquiry.
No meaningful financial disclosure regarding budget, expenses such as an independently audited financial statement.
Unreasonable fear about the outside world, such as impending catastrophe, evil conspiracies and persecutions.
There is no legitimate reason to leave, former followers are always wrong in leaving, negative or even evil.
Former members often relate the same stories of abuse and reflect a similar pattern of grievances.
There are records, books, news articles, or television programs that document the abuses of the group/leader.
Followers feel they can never be "good enough".
The group/leader is always right.
The group/leader is the exclusive means of knowing "truth" or receiving validation, no other process of discovery is really acceptable or credible.

Ten warning signs regarding people involved in/with a potentially unsafe group/leader.

Extreme obsessiveness regarding the group/leader resulting in the exclusion of almost every practical consideration.
Individual identity, the group, the leader and/or God as distinct and separate categories of existence become increasingly blurred. Instead, in the follower's mind these identities become substantially and increasingly fused--as that person's involvement with the group/leader continues and deepens.
Whenever the group/leader is criticized or questioned it is characterized as "persecution".
Uncharacteristically stilted and seemingly programmed conversation and mannerisms, cloning of the group/leader in personal behavior.
Dependency upon the group/leader for problem solving, solutions, and definitions without meaningful reflective thought. A seeming inability to think independently or analyze situations without group/leader involvement.
Hyperactivity centered on the group/leader agenda, which seems to supercede any personal goals or individual interests.
A dramatic loss of spontaneity and sense of humor.
Increasing isolation from family and old friends unless they demonstrate an interest in the group/leader.
Anything the group/leader does can be justified no matter how harsh or harmful.
Former followers are at best-considered negative or worse evil and under bad influences. They can not be trusted and personal contact is avoided.

Feels like damn near most of these are fulfilled already

Nothing screams "not a psycho" more than having to put some ridiculous ASCII art in every one of your posts.

Hate to kill the vibe of the thread, but him and Asmongold co-owned a PC building company together until Asmon stepped down last year after his "Palestinians deserve genocide because their culture is inferior" rant got him cancelled for about three days.

It's good that Charlie is now (finally) calling what is happening in Gaza a genocide but him and Asmon were tight for a long while. He's a neutral fence-sitting guy for 90% of the time and not an anti-Asmongold.

Hate to kill the vibe of the thread

This is factually incorrect.

[kaleidoscopium]

Love how every streamer/youtuber adjacent thread inevitably attracts Hasan haters. Some of you need better hobbies.

That comment is silly, but this site has lots of posters who'll jump in and defend Hasan over pretty much anything as a hobby, too. And this from someone who watches him regularly. It'd be nice if people could discuss him without it turning into an all-or-nothing debate every time.
