In context of the euro-centric concept maybe? But in context of the actual situation, it’s a shitty response, lol.

Hotep logic take “pro-black” talking points and uses them as a means to copy white power. AKA “White/european is wrong by default, and since I only follow non-white teachings, I can’t be wrong.” It’s the…

Sounds like a situation that mirrors law enforcement to some degree. The praise/status and authority, takes precedence over the actual job and leads to some bro-ey settings where the actual job no longer sets the course.

I used to work for a retail store that bought and sold used media store(books, games, movies collectables) for about 5-6 years. I didn’t think the business was sustainable from the start, but watching corporate slowly realizing that and implementing increasingly regressive policies like this was pretty funny. 

“Hey how…

They weren’t normalized already? I feel like we’re 5-6 years too late to be coming from that angle.

We’re now in the phase where if we want to see change, we need to be actually organizing against the industry itself. We’ve already been through this with DLC, microtransactions and the like. 

I understand and generally agree with that point. But for this situation, it feels unnecessary and redundant to care, lol.

It’s totally plausible this guy is a big lying phony... but then what? Are we going to harass him until he stops making content, are we going to start a counter campaign to make sure everyone who…

Idk if I’d call the validity of an interaction in an online video game about being a cowboy, at all relevant to the concept of trumpification. It falls more in line with things like “old wives tales.” False, but ultimately harmless.  

And if someone’s enjoyment of the content REALLY hinges on racists getting clowned…

I’d take it a step further and say in this situation, I don’t think it even actually matters if this is real or not anyway. I don’t think anything tangibly changes either way.

I feel like that’s a scapegoat at the end of the day though, haha. If Tiktok never blew up(or even existed), the problems associated with it, would bubble from some other platform that would of inevitably gained popularity from it’s teen audience.

Especially once something(in this case a social media platform) becomes…

I assume they didn’t leave for protection of liability, but instead to avoid any further implication and heat that will inevitably come there way.

I’m certain majority of the staff in trouble, knows they are in the wrong, so now they have to buckle down and be prepared to defend the company. Which a lot of people…

Here in America? I have no idea what you could possibly be talking about.... and if I did, I definitely wouldn’t say it loud enough for an employer to hear and retaliate... 

Also a good reminder that when people think of HR, that they should know that HR is there to protect the company, not to protect the employees. They can do a great job making sure employees needs are getting met, but that only applies in cases where companies actually care about meeting those needs.

It’s just a game at the end of the day, so I don’t think there should be a single problem when athletes putting their mind/bodies on the line for our entertainment, want a break. 

People being momentarily lost for whatever reason, has minimal impact on the full experience and if it does.... like I said, it’s a personal problem. You should question why you care so much.

And IQ tests aren’t a true measurement of intelligence. It’s more like a measurement of “processing power.” A person with a high…

Idk, it sounds like your kind of just dehumanizing her by way of pedestal. Confidence and success simply do not define a persons susceptibility to mental illness. And the idea that inspiring and ground breaking people are somehow immune to common human experiences, is how we end up with celebrities/athletes with drug…

“I’m a person who thinks that most people are stupid.”

I think that’s the real problem, lol. I totally get not being interested in certain types of content to the point of being annoyed by some of it, but that’s still a you problem. You’re creating an unnecessary expectation of people and pointing a finger streamers…

Idk, it sounds like you’re projecting a type of thought process that’s realistic to how people actually function. Plenty of folks(myself included) ask rhetorical questions out-loud. Like if I’m doing quick math, I might say “what’s 5x5?” out loud. It’s not because I literally forgot what 5x5 was. I have an issue I’d…

That’s a bad faith argument. Someone who agrees with kicking puppies is not sharing the same ground with someone who agrees with feeding the homeless. You’re initial statement only works if your making the un-nuanced take of “all opinions are created equal and valuable in any given situation.”

Also “trolling” as a…

And most people don’t around the world have very little knowledge of the acts the US has engaged in the past and present. I’m glad you’re life in America is decent(assuming as such), but a lack of personal suffrage in one country doesn’t mean suffrage in another is some unimaginable and unique experience.

I agree there…

I think that’s just a convenient way to have an conversation with as little nuance as possible. Communism is a blanket term for a dozen different ideologies that share *some* traits, but none of them are 1 to 1.

Even looking at China as “the worst” example of anything is flawed. Especially considering plenty of the…

Instead of the safe(and sometimes cowardly) tactic of being as vague as possible in your appearence as a creator online, I think the easiest way to keep the more toxic people outside of your market, is to simply be vocal about your stances.
