You’re right. You can’t fight the cold hard facts. But you can ignore them in order to create a distorted worldview that makes the greatest era of wealth and freedom ever sound worse than the 1940s when there was literal segregation and all people of color were trapped in absolute poverty with essentially no legally…

You know, I tried long and hard to come up with a coherent response and realized something - neither of us wins here. You’re not going to convince me that my purchasing decision that has any real affect on anybody whatsoever, and I’m not going to convince you that your decision to boycott has made any real affect on…

she believe that her popularity is a sign that she is right and her opinions are justified.

It went a bit further than that. One of the problems here, and the author really should know better, is that anybody or their supporters get pissed off when you minimize what happened to them. Pikamee did get harassed, actually harassed, death threats and all the usual fun that does in fact fall under the definitions…

Its rather simple

But name-calling, doxxing, and death threats are bullying.

I got here too late, I doubt anyone will scroll down far enough to see this.

Since the start of this I’ve felt this has been a “tactical” mistake, for lack of a better word, and there will be nothing positive that comes from any of it. This definitely seems like one of those “let it go” moments, where people had the chance to play into the hands of the “bad guys” or let it go for the better…

This is a show about a dude who can’t show his face (because reasons) becoming a found father to a troll-like green puppet that makes pleasant cooing sounds, and you think space whales are a bridge too far?

I have made the decision to separate art from the artist.  I grew up with Harry Potter.  The books meant a lot to me as the first three volumes were gifts from my grandparents.  The world of Hogwarts is so much more than JK Rowling.  She might make a penny from my purchase of the game, but dozens of other people put…

No one agrees with you. 

But I do feel like allies attacking people over playing is probably having more of a negative effect in regards to furthering the cause than anything.

They also came after Silvervale pretty hard, and Moona to a lesser extent. Craziest thing is, Moona actually streamed the game before release and didn’t get nearly as much hatred. Pikamee literally didn’t even play the game. All she did was announce that she was going to play it.

I don’t at all disagree with the idea of boycotting the game or whatever other wizard merch so as not to line Rowling’s pockets any further. But I do feel like allies attacking people over playing is probably having more of a negative effect in regards to furthering the cause than anything.

That’s cool. One thing I’ve enjoyed as someone who does not keep up with everything Star Wars, is how they’ve handled things like this. Sometimes it’s pretty easy to tell when something’s an easter egg even if I don’t know how or why, but often they slip right past me. But none of them have ever gotten in the way of…

Them’s fightin’ words

It feels a bit strange to describe the Qunari (who are a culture containing multiple species - we’ve seen elf, human, and I think even dwarf adherents of the Qun, rather than a race), as a race, and particularly as a “marginalized”, given the incredible and increasing power of their culture and military. Calling Iron…
