man I have a movie I really wanna recommend now but I can't recommend it in this context without spoiling it :'(

you realize where you're posting right?

They targeted gamers.

Gamers.

We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.

We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.

We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.

Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.

Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a shitty head set. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.

much worse than honest denialism imo

an opportunity to share knowledge and teach them

if you have a superiority complex, it's really easy to turn that into pee poo lecturing

you can have a little pepsi, as a treat

there is another way to consume soup?

Hermione ached with desire for the both of them to master her, but nobody paid her any attention. They had empires to build.

cursed

not to mention the Republic of China (ROC) (traditional Chinese: 臺灣/台灣; simplified Chinese: 台湾; pinyin: Táiwān), inofficially Taiwan, which is a country in East Asia. Neighbouring countries include Japan to the northeast, and the Philippines to the south. ROC is a member of the World Trade Organization, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation and Asian Development Bank under various names. The official name of the country is the "Republic of China"; it has also been known under various names throughout its existence. Shortly after the ROC's establishment in 1912, while it was still located on the Chinese mainland, the government used the short form "China" (Zhōngguó (中國)) to refer to itself, which derives from zhōng ("central" or "middle") and guó ("state, nation-state"), a term which also developed under the Zhou dynasty in reference to its royal demesne, and the name was then applied to the area around Luoyi (present-day Luoyang) during the Eastern Zhou and then to China's Central Plain before being used as an occasional synonym for the state during the Qing era.

In principle I agree, but everyone important has nukes now. 15830347th generation warfare is not fought with "full on military campaigns", when sanctions are so much more effective.

They need scientific consensus before taking any rash actions, but they are soon there! Only a few percent of researchers funded by big capitalism are putting up a fight.

we're all feds except you, didn't you know?

to me it was a long anti-landlord rant but in retrospect it may not have been intended as such

You can't touch me. You're on the level of a petulant child. Your fragility and ignorance is on full display for anyone in their right minds to see, and it's frankly quite ugly. You can't offend me because your primitive thinking garners absolutely no respect from me. I don't value your perspective in any way shape or form so your weak ass insults bounce off of me and land back onto you to carry. I hope you fix your head and your heart somehow, it must be a truly miserable experience to live inside your head. Eventually, love and compassion will vanquish fear and hatred. Hope you somehow become more enlightened and join us moving forward. I highly doubt it though, you seem to be too far gone for any rational thought to penetrate the bubble of pure bullshit you reside in. Take care. God bless. I wish you the best, now good riddance.

I think Jreg's latest video disproves him being a nazi. /r/pcm is trash though.
