Kotaku pointed out something. Your immediate response was to deflect from that and argue that Kotaku can’t criticize because of another article on a completely different topic. That is whataboutism.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from arguing with D. Walker, it’s that they are very, very ignorant but insistent that they know everything, and that deflection is their only tool in arguments.
Raspberry Pi users on Kotaku are basically the Ned Ryerson of the comment threads, making sure to pop up like clockwork on every goddamn retro-gaming article.
Since you brought it up, I just want to say that one of the biggest disappointments of my childhood life was going from the incredible Beast Wars to Beast Machines.
The last 2 seasons of Beast Wars were so so good and even got into surprisingly lofty philosophical areas for what was ostensibly a kids show. I never…
Why’s that Shuppet made out of leather?
The wild thing is that another cis dude felt as though his perspective mattered more than, say, any trans people. Like, my dude, you wouldn’t accept a white guy telling you whether something was racist when a lot of Black folks were saying it was, why on Earth can’t you figure that same thing out when it’s about…
I mean, Oppression Olympics aside, there are also people who are Black and LGBT-and Dave’s ongoing beef with the LGBT community seems predicated on the idea that the two groups are mutually exclusive.
With regards to question 1, it’s a real mystery why people might be OK with Dave making jokes about Black folks but might not extend that same permissiveness to jokes about LGBT people. Maybe there’s something inherent in Mr. Chappelle that could explain it? On that note, how do you feel about white people using the…
That’s nice. Your experience is not universal, and it’s also by your own admittance not particularly for cis, straight consumption. Your interconnectedness with your coworkers grants an intimacy that can include playful ribbing and that sort of thing, but it’s context-dependent.
Dave Chappelle is not trans. Dave…
What context could be added to supporting JK Rowling and proclaiming himself “team TERF” that would make it acceptable?
And yes, the paradox of tolerance requires that we be intolerant of intolerance to maximize tolerance. You’re not exactly breaking new ground by saying “so much for the tolerant Left!”
Being ‘cancelled’ and ‘cancel culture’ are just euphemisms for ‘being held accountable for something stupid I have said or done’.
The characters and lore of KH are the worst part of that game. The Disney is the only reason to buy. I can’t tell a Roxas apart from a Xeanort or Ventas or Venti or Grande or Tall or Velionidas... That game gets more praise than its deserves.
Let me know when something spectacular will be arriving. Because today all we got was a character who was intentionally designed to be a generic JRPG protagonist so he wouldn’t upstage his many Disney co-stars. Which was a very good choice in his actual games. But when you take all those Disney co-stars away for Smash,…
It would be hilarious if the FNAF movie bombs because the market is already flooded with movies using the same premise from abandoned scripts
What better way to say “fuck you" and "I don't care."
He’s not wearing his mask properly in the drawing.
Cool. Now put Bill Cosby back in jail.
