  • He’s totally one of those people that’s sort of attractive and has an authoritative voice so s lot of people have probably folded to him in arguments through his life. I don’t like making generalizations like that about people but this isn’t the first time he’s acted like this. The one that really took the cake was the whole hardcore WoW raid debacle.

    The TL;DR is, as well as not trying to really spend time on the parts that don’t matter, he did some things that may or may not have been the right thing to do in the situation depending on your perspective. But whenever any of his guild mates or other viewers would criticize him he’d be so adamant that no, he didn’t do anything wrong, he did exactly what he was supposed to do, etc. People would even explicitly tell him “hey, what’s pissing us off now isn’t that you did it, it’s that you’re so adamant you couldn’t have possibly made a mistake, you’re not willing to see our perspective. You’re not willing to admit that maybe you could’ve been wrong. You’re not willing to apologize.” And still, his reaction to this was to triple down and just insist he didn’t do anything wrong.

    Like I literally even saw a clip of him talking to someone and he said “a lot of people think I’m being condescending when really I’m just providing context.” And the guy talking to him points out “yeah, it’s a problem that you think anyone disagreeing with you doesn’t understand the situation, it’s like you think they’re stupid.” It’s like it short circuited his brain. It’s like he’d never considered it.

    So yeah, I have a pretty low opinion of him. But I also recognize that maybe all these clips are taken out of context, who knows. It’s not like my opinion really matters. I don’t work with him or know him. I don’t care about streamers. I don’t really watch them.

    No fucking shit being decentralized doesn’t mean it doesn’t have to have no moderation, how the fuck did you get that from what I said? This clone I’m talking about specifically advertised itself as being unmoderated and free from censorship. I’ve forgotten the name and don’t really care to try and remember it. If you’re interested, look through my comments for me mentioning people using the N word. That’s what stuck out about this clone. Just full on pages of people using the N word with a hard R.

    You will see child pornography, nazis recruiting children with badly fried memes, dead people, parts of dead people, characters from popular japaneese cartons involved in the depraved shit, and spam

    Aside from the CP, that is how it was back in the day and how it should be.

    So you’re okay with nazis recruiting children with badly fried memes, dead people, parts of dead people, characters from popular japaneese cartons involved in the depraved shit, and spam?













  • Don’t call yourself an ally if you call cis people “non trans normal people” while knowing and refusing to use the term cis. You getting so defensive about this really illustrates to me that your allyship stops when it’s inconvenient. This all began because I saw you use some very strange phrasing so I just wanted to let you know that, hey, instead of the harmful mouthful that is “non trans normal person” you can just say cis. Lo and behold, you know the term. Okay, sure, fine, but just calling it “made up”? Never once asked you to say cis. Was just telling you that it’s a word that exists. It never was a problem in my eyes that you didn’t say cis, it was a problem that you said normal.

    Let me make myself clear one last time. I don’t care if you don’t say cis. I’d like you to, I think you should, but it’s not anywhere close to the same as saying cis is normal and trans isn’t.
