2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

JK Rowling is a transphobe, a bigot, and a fascist.
So is a massive chunk of murica
It's actually so refreshing seeing upvoted comments here with the correct take, whereas the chuds would be all over this on the other site
Fuck JKR and everything she stands for
and yet, there's plenty of dogshit apologists in this thread arguing to "just let people play games" because they have zero self control. this place is literally no different than the other.
Or buy a used copy, which is what I did. Physical media for life!
i have a comment elsewhere in this thread saying to do that, lmao. i also have mean enough comments that the mod removed them.
If you respected the rules it wouldn't have to be moderated.
Calling Rowling a terf is OK (you are stating the obvious in such case), telling another user to fuck off, or for specific group of people to die isn't.
Ah, "rules" that can't be really learned from because you removed the comment from even my own comment history. You're obviously insinuating something with that last sentence but, frankly, i can't recall what i wrote at the moment.
These people LITERALLY want to dehuman and take rights from trans folk, but i'm required to tolerate that without calling them names?
and before any miserable "bothsides" fuck cries "you're doing the same". i didn't start this shit. i'm not taking womens rights away. i'm not also trying to ship people off to foreign prisons.
make nazis dead again.
You can take a look at the modlog if you are curious about your own comment. It is public.
The only limitation being, unfortunately, comment thread removal, in such case only the first comment is shown, which is why I tend to avoid it.
You're right, both sides aren't the same. One side has devolved into foregoing what we like to think of as humanity because they have a boner for hate and the other makes excuses on why degrading themselves to the same level isn't the same.
It's a play on words. I'll skip the nuances and get right down to the core, "they started murdering people, so I'm murdering them back". But here's the thing, killing is still killing, even in self-defense. No matter how many justifications, running away from this concept only serves to bring you ever closer to the mentality of the other side.
The very simplified "both sides" is alluding to the idea that both are very much willing to give up empathy, ethics and law if it means getting rid of the opposite side. The selective application of these three concepts is what bridges you together in a way that makes an outside observer say "so similar, they might as well be the same" a.k.a. "both sides".
No exception to empathy, no exception to ethics, no exception to law, no matter how saintly and no matter how evil.
so you advocate rolling over and letting literal genocides occur because killing is bad. that's what your logic naturally leads to.
trolley problem is all about this shit. and your stance is that millions can get ran over by the trolley as long as you don't have to pull the handle to decide. because of your cowardice.
I'm advocating that you stop making excuses for yourself.
intellectual cowardice is all you have. because it's all you are. you support the murder of millions.
You know, the loudest homophobes are often revealed as closeted homosexuals.
You are also very loud in your opinion. You should probably reexamine yourself.
The far right: let putin take over, he's a strong man and one of us
The far left: Let us not defend against putin and take him over, because violence is bad.
I think I get your point, but were comparing extremists with extremists here.
People, as individuals or groups, are complicated. And annoying. This is such a pain to deal with... Don't wanna. Bleh.
Yeah true. It's generally better from what I've seen but nazi chuds really are everywhere.
they came for the GAMERS so they just HAD to speak up.
