I think the difference with that is GG started off as a movement not even concerned with the recent pseudo attack against gaming journalism. It started from an unhealthy place and ended up in one. I think the issue is that there are people who mean well within it, but attempting to co-opt an already nefarious…

Yeah, I agree. I'm giving Bliss the benefit of the doubt here, but this isn't the first time he's come under fire for representation within his marketing projects. I wonder if the Anti-Harassment group has seen the full footage.

I've luckily yet to run into the PS4 Rest Issue, but I'm sorry to hear about Evolve. From what I've seen, it definitely looks enjoyable and I hope they can push it out the the platform after resolving these issues rather soon.

Yeah same! Although the guy, Rob Bliss, who produced this apparently had previous problems with representations within his videos.

Going to be honest, I'm not sure you can take comments on sites as representative of activist groups. Which in my experience, since I work in that sphere occasionally, are very inclusive and are more concerned with listening to the different perspective and challenges over interrupting them with proclamations of who…

The orchestrator of the video has actually come out to say that it was pretty even in terms of racial disparity among the catcallers, it was just mostly an issue supposedly with audio/video cleanness during those accounts.

You can like something and still find inherent flaws within it. I'm more concerned with your binary viewpoint that if you like it, it simply must be unworthy of critique. How boring.

I'm going to be honest, as an avid fan of a game I enjoy to a degree that doesn't make sense.

Yeah, misuse of the no true scotsman fallacy is particularly annoying.

If your rhetoric is painting one group (any progressive) with a wide brush for painting another group (christians) with a wide brush, I don't really have time for you.

Essentially a netbook alternative is how I perceive it.

It's not, it's acknowledging that painting with a broad stereotypical brush offers no valuable critique undermining any point he might have made concerning the systemic issues that are present within parts of Islamic culture. A failure to identify this does not a rational argument make.

I'm not labeling him a victim. Nor am I disputing what was clearly detailed as occuring.

Not quite irony, unless you're of the opinion that acting of that sort comes exclusively from anime. (It does not.)

I mean, Japan is hardly only anime. It's just the largest cultural export people see.

Unfortunately people with no prior issues do snap, and often to the extreme. Some of the stories my Aunt, who works in a related area, are absolutely harrowing in terms of quick changes from docile to explosive. Often with no provocation. Which is not to rule out that this is a consistent event (because how could any…

Your opinion was literally that spanking did nothing for you. Mine was, it did, however emotional trauma was more likely to prevent reoccurring cases, at least in my case. Furthermore, you postulated that there are others like you. And I pointed out there are others who felt spanking had a lasting effect on them in…

I could literally say the same thing with anecdotal asides from my own community. That's rather irrelevant. Also refrain from juxtaposing what you think my opinion is in regards to commonality. It's tiresome.

And that's perfectly fine. Please recognize that is your own experience and not pervasive to everyone who has ever lived.

Yep! I'm rather excited to hear about the interpretations from my fellows at my HBCU who watch this and their varying opinions on upbringing and rates of success regarding discipline. If nothing else, the show has set-up excellent talking points.
