If you gotta tell yourself that to make yourself feel better, I can’t help you there.

And opinions can be in bad faith.

Imagine publishing what’s supposed to be at least a somewhat professional piece on a well-known public website actively telling people to “shut up” because they hurt your good feels and completely disregarding any sort of factuality to serve that purpose and going even further than that.

Not really. This piece was bad. It was pretentious, self-righteous, and misinformed. It was bad faith from the start, continued to get worse as it went on, and only serves as proliferation of very thing it’s criticizing by being no different.

This “piece” is fucking trash. Absolute trash. It radiates smugness while at the same time presenting basically no understanding of the problems, and using bullshit logic that makes me question if this person ever played any generations between the 1st gen and now.

Oh hey, Arnheim. Some of us from from the remains of Splinter have gathered up at SplinterRIP account. Be cool to have you with us if you’re interested. We got a pretty neat little thing going.

Are they actively censoring people right now for expressing solidarity with Hong Kong?

Or both attack the evil oppressive Chinese government and those who are working in conjunction with the evil oppressive Chinese government, because they are an accessory to the oppression.

It was trash but it was our trash... or something like that.

I’d be fine with a Discord personally, since I’m on there all the time anyway. I find it’s better than Reddit if you want a communal aspect, while Reddit is better for more long-form discussions, since it’s basically a glorified forum board.

Apparently they were told not to tell anyone it was getting shut down.

Gotta side with Keebu, most accounts I’ve heard is they told him something like “go ahead and say it.” So they must’ve had some idea beforehand what he wanted to do.

Well that’s been going on for god knows how long.

EXCLUSIVE: So-called “journalist” newspaper shits all over itself, can’t figure out how to clean up.

And I’m sure if someone was to be all pro-China, they’d do nothing. It’s not about rules, it’s about China throwing their weight around because they cannot allow any dissent anywhere in the world.

It should be noted that they don’t mean “Earth” years, yeah, it’s a new thing they’re doing with leakers. So when they say 10 years, what they really mean is more like, oh... 120 years give or take.

He’s just a troll, best to ignore him and dismiss his replies.

And what about fans from Hong Kong who are uncomfortable with Blizzard’s actions? Or other nations that China similarly has interests in?
