I am glad nobody here is defending this fraud. Nor should they feel compelled to, any more than they should go to bat for career scammers Zoe Quinn and Brianna Wu. Actually, this would be an even greater folly. It'd be like defending cat bin lady. An utter asshole did something utterly assholic. Fin~

Truly I am glad! I know this community is sound. This thread isn't always so one-sided, it's just drifted away from the last pastry-lobbing bunfight back into my stewardship. And I deal exclusively in documented frauds and their orbiters. Only outright silencing of dissent can aid those. Image

It's bleakly hilarious seeing the sainted journalistic class attempt a GG Fukkatsu out of even flimsier pickings than the first go-around. All they will achieve is GG Mokushiroku. Image

For all the shit that goes on here at times this place might be the last refuge of gaming sanity on the internet. We will defend this place to the death.

Or the site goes down - whichever comes first.
You're sure to be in a fine haze about now, but don't think too hard about all of this. Just go out and kill a few beasts. It's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it.

Way back before I learned of their...reputation, I tried making an account on the original neogaf.

Demanding a payed email (lol), I still had to wait like...3 weeks before it was verified and I was able to post. By that time, I had lost interest. The shoddy service of that first impression did not do them any favors in my eyes.

When the did we all get the right to: never hear (or see) opposing views"?

When disagreement is branded as "disrespect", there's no way to "respect" ideas. That's bullshit. Also, people don't respect most ideas they don't agree with. That's life.

Outrage oven just got turned back up as James Gunn finds himself fired from Guardians of the Galaxy 3 after a Twitter dood dredged up "offensive jokes" Gunn made on Twitter... 10 years ago.

10 years ago.



10.

Years.

Ago.



Nice work Disney, looking forward to you offending me by raping Star Wars up the ass again next year!

All I'll say for now is, at least he took it like a man. (as opposed to the little boys that were his apparent obsession somewhere in his early forties!)

Usually when one of these virtuous tweeters gets dragged into the jaws of the silencing machine they created, there's a lot of begging and pleading, peppered with angry recriminations and threats of "it'll get you too one day!" He's submitted to his sudden gruesome end with some grace, even as his fellows make up the difference.

Like this!

I'm gonna wait and see if ol' JG gets busted down for something a bit more compelling like his buddy who was nailed for (shock, surprise) child porn possession. Image

There wasn't even a whole mob calling for him to get fired, it was probably just one or more guys reporting these tweets to Disney.
Practically nobody would have cared about James Gunn being edgy, but as a consequence of this outrage culture, Disney isn't even willing to take the slightest chance to risk offending anybody.

I just love his implication that the virtuous machine actually cares what's written on your brainmeat as its jaws obliterate your skull like a peanut M&M. Image It's an autonomous paradigm that selects targets based on signaled outrage. It shows up at your employer's doorstep politely enquiring as to your whereabouts, and if they know what's good for their virtue, they comply. Some understand its only known weakness, and have the luxury/conviction of brandishing it: Absolute Contempt. See unfathomably rich fat fedoraman Notch, ya boi Zack, or the Kingdom Come: Deliverance guys. It will quietly go on its way, though its human proponents will by no means cease reporting you to it.

DISNEY, though?! :shock: We don't know if JG is a predator, Pat! But he at one point loved posturing as one for yuks, and was apparently unfathomably stupid enough to keep the evidence around while working for the mouse! And that furry fuck is one COLD family-friendly operator. See also your former cause celebre Alison "Six Golden Coins To Pound Your Mushroom Up My Hubby's Warp Pipe" Rapp!

At some point, motherfuckers are just slathering themselves in honey BBQ sauce and running around the woods, you know? :sad: An appeal to call off the loosed beast because "c'mon guys, we're lefties, we're all virtuous here!" is gonna splinter on its hide like so many fingernails and teeth.

The only real distinction among its victims is: what did they think of this wondrous visitor beforehand? Image

Yeah, a few things I've seen about this say it was mostly just Mike Cernovich digging these up to get at Gunn for his anti-Trump tweets or smth (and apparently now he's digging up some more choice tweets from Patton Oswalt and Michael Ian Black).
It really is something watching both Right and Left people flip-flop continuously about the whole FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS NOT FREEDOM FROM CONSEQUENCES thing depending on the current target. It's also really something just seeing some of the absolutely off-the-wall shit people post on Twitter knowing full-well that it will be archived in public view for all time :shock:

I... think Twitter might need to start making people go through a Captcha or something when they want to tweet :v
or whatever would reduce the number of psychotic impulse-tweets

Don Cheadle is shitting his pants, apparently. Image SEVERAL FOUSAND tweets up in smoke this week. If you add those Rian Johnson has deleted in the same span...

IT'S OVER NINE FOUSAAAND :shock:

Image

IDGAF about these people. Let me tell you how much IDGAF. There are 387.44 million boxes of printed circuit boards that fill my suburban nerdbunker. If the acronym "IDGAF" was engraved on each nano-angstrom of those hundreds of millions of boxes, it would not equal one one-billionth of the IDGAF I feel for hollywood capeshitters at this micro-instant.

It's not like anyone dies for real in the Marvel universe. Next movie they'll just get the Infinity Gauntlet and bring James Gunn back.

The humour of this situation is more akin to that of a fiery bible-thumper caught on gas station CCTV enthusiastically servicing several massive hairy blokes. Image

Except in this case it's extra ridiculous, since the preacher would be merely joking (with curious tenacity) about the scenario. It doesn't change much given the grovelingly disavowing reaction.

"B-b-but it was ten years ago! I've changed and grown as a person! Jokes about eating baby cum are totally haraam, I know this now!"

It doesn't matter what was said or even done. Not to me anyway. :cool:

(I don't buy the IT WAS SO WRONG act. this is my favourite pedo joke ever and that'll never change! print this post out and keep it, for when I get BUSTED DOWN IN TEN YEARS AND BEG 4 MERCY. Yo! At least I'm still in my thirties joking about this stuff! Those other asswipes were well into their forties! Don't judge me you cunts! :shock:)
