I don't think punching a human pile of garbage and shit (™ Dick Show) would be the best idea anyway. Our stalwart race avenger™'s fist would just bounce off our boneless protagonist, right back into his own face. :shock:

Well, if you see Matt on the threshold, give him a shove back over to ours. He rolls easily, just put your foot on him and give a firm shove. Even his life is a life, as pathetic as it is. :sad:

Serial accuser and metoo leader, Asia Argento, Paid Off Sexual Assault Accuser.

Image

"According to a report in The New York Times, Argento paid former child actor Jimmy Bennett $380,000. Bennett claims that in 2013, a then 37-year-old Argento assaulted him in a California hotel only two months past his 17th birthday.
The age of consent in California is 18."

Thats rape of a minor, then.

Must be rough, so soon after her boyfriend's suicide.

"Saint Rose of the worthless miracle", made good emotional bank from it, though;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_cont ... 57YL3sYR9k
She is, of course, no stranger to making bank from suicide;

Image

"Rose McGowan has broken her silence on the suicide of her former manager, Jill Messick."

For Jill: May your family find some measure of solace during this pain,” she wrote on Instagram. “That one man could cause so much damage is astounding, but tragically true.
The bad man did this to us both. May you find peace on the astral plane. May you find serenity with the stars
.”

Certainly, I am not for a moment suggesting, that these women emit lethal levels of "toxicity" (sorry Skykid);

tbh the Mundane Mattacre afflicted me with a feral bloodlust. (`ω´メ) Unfit to participate in this frontier of war. I am only just now catching up on my schadenwaifu's latest adventures in carpetbagging!

Seems Neopuritanical Paddy was once a randy young college bro aka some variety of human? Reminds me of Leigh Alexander and Movie Blob's tales of shitting up the internet in their haraam youths. And Blowy, off the record! I wonder why it is these characters end up wrenched from one moronic extreme to the other. It is almost like they were jumped-up morons to begin with. It would explain the mounds of dog shit that constitute their professional output! :idea:

The Toxic Meritocracy of Video Games: Why Gaming Culture Is the Worst - Christopher A. Paul

The blurb;
Christopher A. Paul, an avid gamer, media critic and Associate Professor of Communications at Seattle University, takes on gaming culture in his book,
The Toxic Meritocracy of Video Games: Why Gaming Culture Is the Worst (University of Minnesota Press).
Arguing that video games’ focus on meritocracy empowers a negative culture—from the deep-bred misogyny exemplified by “GamerGate” to the endemic malice of abusive player communities,
he suggests ways to ultimately foster a more diverse, accepting, and self-reflective culture that is not only good for gamers but for good for video games as well.


From Amazon page;
"Video games have brought entertainment, education, and innovation to millions, but gaming also has its dark sides.
From the deep-bred misogyny epitomized by GamerGate to the endemic malice of abusive player communities, gamer culture has had serious real-world repercussions,
ranging from death threats to sexist industry practices and racist condemnations.

In The Toxic Meritocracy of Video Games, new media critic and longtime gamer Christopher A. Paul explains how video games’ focus on meritocracy empowers this negative culture.
Paul first shows why meritocracy is integral to video-game design, narratives, and values.
Games typically valorize skill and technique, and common video-game practices (such as leveling) build meritocratic thinking into the most basic premises.
Video games are often assumed to have an even playing field, but they facilitate skill transfer from game to game, allowing certain players a built-in advantage.

The Toxic Meritocracy of Video Games identifies deep-seated challenges in the culture of video games—but all is not lost.
As Paul argues, similarly meritocratic institutions like professional sports and higher education have found powerful remedies to alleviate their own toxic cultures,
including active recruiting and strategies that promote values such as contingency, luck, and serendipity.
These can be brought to the gamer universe, Paul contends, ultimately fostering a more diverse, accepting, and self-reflective culture that is not only good for gamers but good for video games as well."

So maybe if you HAVE to win to have fun and you aren't very good you should pick up another hobby. Or I dunno perhaps play offline single player games.

And back to that one point, of course skills transfer from game to game. That's how skills tend to work. Like if I have a good fundamental understanding of how tcgs and deck building works and that gives me an advantage when I pick up a new tcg is that vile and wrong too? Teach me how to lose senpai.

This is giving me GOOD VIBRATION back to one of this shitshow's underrated stars: Zoe Quinn's disgraced former CON obersturmführer Jake "Secretgamergirl" (Image) Alley, who is not just known for getting bitch-slapped by The Shat, and for his innovative loft insulation techniques, but has also railed against the scourge of meritocracy in gaming! He even looks kinda similar!

Image

When I'm done writing my badass Double Dragon fanfic I'll see if he's said anything! :O I am looking up bone-crushing wrestling and judo holds, and while I've been pleasantly surprised by all the cute girls doing MMA cheesecake shoots nowadays, I am also hitting A LOT of gay porn! These guys look mean! :o Now that's toxic masculinity, M I RITE Clyde?

PS

I think Clyde got freaked out seeing his sister in the shower one time, and rather than beating off to Skinemax that night like a healthy young nerd, he instead bottled it up and became the twisted loser freak we know him as today. Masculinity is indeed toxic in extreme concentrations! But so is femininity, and oxygen, and fucking water! Above all, what I think these cretinous no-game neckbeard cunts lack is balance.

You know, all our entertainment is doomed.

The only thing I can count on, is Japanese video games. I'm glad that they have pulled themselves back together.

Matt lees' misdirection (and a bit of re-branding :wink: ) on full, shameless display in that bastion of balance and insight, "The Guardian", today;

"The YouTube stars heading for burnout: ‘The most fun job imaginable became deeply bleak’"
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/ ... k-stressed

Image

Wherein Matt heads up a self pity list, of stressed youtube whiners :lol:

Of course, what is not mentioned and is indeed purposefully obfuscated by incongruously mixing Matt in with these "millionaires", is the reason for Matts "burnout",
which was his jump from making general games related videos, to all out "Gamer's are toxic" content.
We are not talking simple respect wahmen level drivel here. No, no to be sure. Matt Lees went full blown, Cultural Marxism propaganda mode.

Here he is, warming up; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD0_DfvutM4
1.9k - likes, to 3.6k - dislikes and comments disabled. "Burnout" . . yeah, right.

Aaaannnd here he is going full Frankfurt School; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owEMDcq73IY
Attempting to sell the idea that; if we could just see beyond our "implicit cultural politics", we would see that what we think is gaming culture, is just an example of buoying up a false cultural bias.
If only we could see that all culture (including gaming culture) is relative, gaming would be free from toxic, cis-male, misogynist shitlords!

Matt is a social justice proselytizer. He preaches the word, that a toxic circle jerk of men, wanting a certain type of game and developers "giving-in", to what these men want,
is keeping women developers and therefore women gamer's, out of gaming . . . Of course! you know, just like what men did in film and tech and comics and theatre and art?.
Its not a matter of who the main consumers and creators are, you understand? No, no. Its the fucking patriarchy!

The most immediate problem with that is, like your bullshit Matt, no one will buy it.
All creativity will be sapped by quota's, actual consumers will simply not buy and your imaginary new, "woke" consumer base will, as has been the case in film and comics,
turn out to be just another social justice delusion.

Nice going, getting top billing on a contrived and vacuous Guardian puff piece, though. "Journalism."

He actually seems like a fairy reasonable and down to earth chap. What I can’t figure out is why the article says he has/had so many subscribers and it made him megabucks. His channel has 59k, which is no mean feat, but it’s not going to make you a millionaire (is it?).

Hasn’t Sargon reached a cool million now?
