It never went away in the first place

Yes, last I checked, one of their prime hate forums r/KotakuInAction was still active, and still filled with the most pathetic little insects seething about the fact that women and minorities exist in media. Gamergate has never really ended. Most people just stopped paying attention to these fools.

Unfortunately, that’s easy for me to say, since I’m not on the receiving end of their doxxing and death threats.

I haven’t had the best life, but I just can’t fathom being such a total loser that I’d ever get that worked up over something like video games.

Oh I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised. My instance actually disables downvotes, so I can’t see that, but there are a lot of reddit transplants here (I’m one of them), and reddit’s takes on things like feminism and women are overall not … good.

I’d be curious to see how standard Firefox compares to beta, Nightly, Fennec, and Mull

It’s a funny thing, though. My dad is an old man, and I’ve never heard him use a homophobic slur.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

It seems ableist to assume someone’s mental health is what causes homophobia

My grandpa had dementia when he died and thought I was his brother, and I also never heard him say queerphobic words

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

Nice job trying to excuse and downplay homophobia. I’m old as fuck, and we’ve known for a very long time these words were harmful. If your family just accepted the norm at the time and upheld a status quo that harmed and erased queer people, and then never changed to the point that they would just stop, then fuck them. They’re bigots, and they’re not good people.

And yes, I have family who speak English, Spanish, Korean, Swedish, and Norwegian, and only the completely dogshit ones who I’d never claim or associate with are bigots.

Fuck the pope, and fuck everyone who’s making excuses for him being a bigot.

I hope the Pope gets killed instantly and horrifically. I need some uplifting news.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

The pope is a queerphobe though and he should perish

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

No the churches can all burn though with all the queerphobes and church leaders inside, ridding the world of a violent hate group forever <3

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

Yikes. Lecturing a gay person about how homophobia is not a big deal is not a good look.

And idgaf where you’re from, homophobe. You’re a gross and disgusting person.

If you live in Rome, maybe you can [redacted] the pope, who is a queerphobe. I’ve never celebrated him. I’d never celebrate that ghoul or his organized hate group with all its brainwashed fools

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

The pope is not going to fuck you, no matter how much you defend him online.

Unless of course you’re a little boy. Then he probably would.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

The slur is honophobic, and that’s a problem.

And I’m not the nasty person in this situation. You are, because you’re defending the use of a slur and lecturing a queer person how I should feel about it.

You are a disgusting person. No wonder you love defending homophobic “people” like the pope.

I hope you burn.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago (edited 11 days ago)

Fuck off with you’re straighsplaining and gaslighting. I have zero respect for anything that emits from your shitty straight centrist mouth. You’re nothing but a privileged queerphobe with a redditesque demeanor.

I don’t need you to tell me what isn’t and is a slur in Italian. It’s clear that you’re wrong. I know shitty English and Spanish speaking Straights too who downplay hateful behavior, and you’re exactly like them.

I hope something horrible befalls you.

Edit: Thank you for saying I’m nasty, though. I really try to treat queerphobes miserably, so looks like I’m on the right track.

I’m not reading an essay from a straight person who sounds like a redditor

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

Your opinion here is unimportant. You’re not in the community

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

Anyone can easily determine it’s a slur. Pretty fuckin easy to verify that I’m right and you’re wrong.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

SHitty people all call their friends queerphobic slurs in both English and Spanish, I’ve seen it.

It doesn’t excuse it, and it doesn’t make their language and behavior less queerphobic. In fact, the fact that they use it so casually is just more evidence of how deeply entrenched queerphobia is, and the fact that they’re willing to continue to normalize this in society with such callous disgregard for us LGBTQIA+ people does not reflect well on their character.

Sounds to me like you just surround yourself with 4chan tier people. Yikes.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 11 days ago

Anyway, here’s you straight up refusing to understand the concept of white privilege:

My genuine reaction to everything you’ve said:

https://i.ibb.co/TkbcJHy/longest.png

Have an extremely shitty day, and let’s not talk again. I have even less respect for you now that when we’ve started – pretty impressive tbh since I started at zero so – achievement unlocked??, and you’ve confirmed all my suspicions about you by admitting that you think casual queerphobia is okay and that we queers are just “making a big deal out of nothing.”

I can’t block your ass because I’m a mod, but I won’t be responding in any meaningful way going forward.

So you condemn the Pope’s repeated use of a homophobic slur?

LinkOpensChest_wav , 10 days ago

But as for actually judging people only based on what they say

How dare we judge someone based on [checks notes] the actual words. they say???

But let’s focus on the actual things the church believes for a moment. Certainly that’s better, right? Certainly they’re… hmmm… well, yikes!

But still this is the “good pope” right? So certainly he wouldn’t… oh fuck.

Well, turns out it’s fair after all to judge him as bring a confirmed queerphobe and the catholic church as a hate group.

So with this further context I repeat: do you condemn the pope’s repeated use of an actual homophobic slur? (Not that you should require this further context, since he has no excuse for using this term as someone outside the queer community.)

LinkOpensChest_wav , 10 days ago

Do you specifically condemn the Pope for his use of slurs?

Also, not appreciating you downplaying the fact that the Catholic church clearly believes LGBTQIA+ is a sin. This is not allyship by any stretch of the imagination.

You know it’s real easy to judge others for the sins of their fathers. How far into your family history would we need to dig to judge you for the rape or murders your forebears likely committed?

Irrelevant. I’d condemn them. There’s never been an excuse for such behavior.

I’m only judging the church and it’s shitty pope based on their actual words and actions. They’re still an active hate group in 2024.

I’d be curious to see what you think of the sequels because I only loved the first movie and hated everything that came after it. But I totally understand that you have no interest in watching them.

I agree with this. I see a lot of people erroneously label tankies “fascist,” but fascism is an entirely distinct ideology with different end goals.

I also wouldn’t call myself a tankie, although I’ve received some nasty DMs calling me one, which is somewhat humorous to me since I identify most with anarchism. I feel like some people think a tankie is defined as “anyone to the left of Ronald Reagan.”

I can’t argue with any of this. It all looks accurate.

I haven’t experienced any of the problems mentioned in this article while using Firefox + uBO (on Windows, Linux, and Fennec fork on Android), nor while using the Tubular app on Android.

Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask are two of my favorite games of all time, along with Link’s Awakening. I want so badly to replay them, but I’m scared they might not have stood the test of time, and I don’t want to become disillusioned.

Oooh thanks! Someone shared this with me a while back, and I had bookmarked it and planned to check it out, but I forgot. I see now they have a Linux version too.

Separation of church and state is just a fairy tale we use in the US to indoctrinate our children into believing we’re a good nation. Just like the right to assemble, the right to a fair trial, the abolishment of slavery, and that we’re a functioning democracy.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 1 month ago

There’s a sort of twisted reason, though. Fascists need a manufactured enemy to whom they can attribute blame for society’s ills – in this case, the myth of a “border crisis.” It’s sadly effective too, and somewhere around 70% of right-wingers in the US believe it, many of whom are so ignorant they don’t realize they’re complicit in bolstering fascism.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 1 month ago

I predict similar results in the US. Proton is gonna be happy.

Seriously?

LinkOpensChest_wav , 1 month ago

The two main things would be completely ending support for Israel and taking at least some meaningful steps toward ending border fascism and at the very least stop using the myth of a “border crisis” to pander to the ignorance of constituents.

If he’d do at least these two things, I’d at least feel hopeful that he’d do some more good going forward, but instead he’s only thrown more and more fuel on these racist dumpster fires.

That I’d never have a calculator in my pocket

That I’d get more conservative as I grew older

LinkOpensChest_wav , 1 month ago

There are multiple things wrong with this, the most glaring of which is that a conservative with money would lack a heart as well. Conservatism is incompatible with having a heart.

LinkOpensChest_wav , 1 month ago

I suppose this is true, but remaining set in your ways while the world changes, taken to it’s logical conclusion is political conservatism/fascism
