This “clarification” that JonTron has offered makes part of his problem incredibly clear.
It is perfectly possible for a person of a racial or ethnic background other than “Anglo-European” to hold particular prejudice—or even racist beliefs—toward white folk. Similarly, it is possible for a woman to hold sexist beliefs…
“Discrimination certainly exists but I do believe it goes all ways,” he said. As evidence of this, Jafari pointed to a sketch by Samantha Bee, where she jokingly blames white people for Trump’s election. “I suppose you could guess the reaction if Samantha Bee said black people ruined America for voting overwhelmingly…
Every so often, I drop by KIA out of morbid curiosity to see what they’re saying now and to take comfort in the continually tiny active user counter. Even after all the intensive moderating, all the special rules, all the stern demands to the users, they’re still a seriously nasty bunch of people saying awful things.…
*sigh*
There’s a legion of right-wing bros out there who will use any excuse to attack people, especially women. The game’s facial animations may be an ultimately-minor issue, but bros will use it as an excuse to hate.
And this is why they shut down the Bioware Social Network.
openly Making fun of/criticizing something is not the same as attacking some one EVER.
Yet more proof that for the millionth time, women’s and minorities studies must be made mandatory schooling, otherwise the conservakiddies of the sexist conservative parents that raised them so poorly will continue to march along being assholes in perpetuity.
Secondly: Nothing wrong with Andromeda’s animations.…
The whole making-fun-of-Andromeda thing was fun until I read comments on some of the videos on YouTube. An alarming amount seem convinced that the reason for the technical faults is beacuse ‘SJWs have taken over Bioware and destroyed the game.” Seriously, that is some insane conspiratorial nonsense. It’s also insanely…
Oh hey the Ralph Retort, one of several prominent mouthpieces of everyone’s favorite “ethics in journalism” seeking hate group.
@Ferres, because I don’t want to risk pulling you out of the greys
Has there ever been a single gamergater, or person subscribing to similar ideas, who are a normal, decent human being? I don’t fucking think so.
You’d think that maybe some of the values and themes of Mass Effect—exploration, diversity, ethics—would rub off on the players.
You can blame Ethan Ralph, convicted felon (assaulted a police officer) for this putting the bullseye on that woman. He’s a notorious shitstain who was a completely reprehensible jackass back in the days of GamerGate.
You know, I used to wish I had gotten into the gaming business. I’m glad I never chased that particular dream now, honestly. I can’t even muster an ounce of surprise at this garbage, which is the most depressing part of all of this. I didn’t even need to see who was getting focus fired on to know it was a woman.
at some point people need to answer for (and seriously address) the asshole uprising spawned on the internet and in the gaming community.
i’m sure Bioware’s progressive storytelling is largely what rankles these debased cretins but part of me wonders if doing the ME3's extended further encourages the behaviour. Y’know, you got to stick to your guns creatively - even if you’re wrong - otherwise you set a precedent of negotiateing the terrorists.
A pox on all their cattle. Disgusting. I bet all of them are Mortal Kombat button mashing shin kickers.
Yea that’s bullshit even if the animation is off it’s still no reason to go and be a flat out dickhead to a person for just some damn animation smh man
