Journalism and sexism in the games industry
Seeing as a good number of tea baggers nest in and around my city, I can confirm this. Between the Jack Thompson/Anita Sarkeesian parallels and the willingless to keep a terrible situation as is, I'm starting to wonder if the mainstream left is closer to the right-wingers than they care to admit. What they have in common with the right-wingers is that they are both authoritarian. Old time conservative dislike liberalism because they think that it will erode old structures such as the church, common moral values and eventually a collapse of civilization since nihilism and bohemianism tendencies are not only tolerated, but celebrated. SJ-people hate liberalism because they recognize that freedom will always end with have's and have not's, both economically and socially speaking. True social justice is not achieved until the power structures enabled by capitalism and liberalism are trickled down, and to do that, you have to recondition society through forced egaliterianism.

Longknife is on to something. I was in SF last year and while walking along the small houses west of Coit tower (somewhere between telegraph hill and russian hill), where i asked one of the locals what the prices around that area where... 1.5-2 million dollars, on avarage They looked like regular small houses for working class families, built very tightly together, so let this sink in: In order to buy a small house in SF, you have to be a millionare.

Words can't express the surprise I feel at encountering straw feminist clichés from the mouths of self-professed 'equalists'. You can start by offering critique to Christina Sommers. She's been doing research on that for years.- Journalism and sexism in the games industry
I'm going full Bruce and say it was an excellent read and everyone should read it. Apparantly, it was written by that Decado-guy at the 'Codex. Damn good.- Dragon Age: Inquisition

Pretty damn good. The guy should look more into post-modernism, that's pretty much the philosophy of these guys. It is simply: - Rejection of reason - Rejection of empirical knowledge - Rejection of theory - Sceptisism to concepts - Everything is a construct of something else - Personal truths through personal emotional experience, not objective truths through logical statements - Critical theory, "the end of all theories" Now, doesn't all of that sound familiar to this whole debacle?- Is this harrassment ?
I've been to Germany enough times to wager that you guys would focus more on the structural integrity on the pavement than greeting strangers.- Is this harrassment ?

Tell her to come to scandinavia. Here we do not greet, let alone talk to strangers, since we deep down hate each other and can't wait for the weekend to arrive so that we can get to our respective cabins: Just avoid areas heavily populated by foreigners from the middle east/africa. It's no secret that they make a competition on to approach alone women.- Journalism and sexism in the games industry
