Remember when gaming journalists defended games?

I'm fucking done. They are shamelessly calling for censorship.
"Rockstar didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment, but the studio released GTA V in 2013, 2014 and 2015 with all of its original scenes intact, and it hasn’t indicated plans to change anything in 2021."

Stop using this fucking propagandistic bullshit.
"Petit notes that today, there are dozens of videos featuring GTA V players happily hunting down and killing trans characters, because they are trans. This phenomenon mirrors a tragic reality: Transgender people, and particularly black transgender women, are disproprotionately the target of fatal violence and hate crimes in the real world. Since 2013, more than 173 transgender and gender nonconforming people have been killed, and of those, 114 were black trans women, according to the Human Rights Campaign. And these numbers are likely terribly low, considering that many cases are underreported or misrepresented to authorities. The American Medical Association in 2019 labeled the tide of deadly violence against transgender people an “epidemic.” "

Kill the fucking journos. Just bomb their offices, round up the survivors and fucking kill em.

>The journalists are enemies of the people *turns head to the side* Yes. >Remember when gaming journalists defended games? In the mid-00's last I remember. >They are shamelessly calling for censorship. Again? Guess they're still riding high from "defeating" #GamerGate . >Kill the fucking journos. Just bomb their offices, round up the survivors and fucking kill em. The worst thing you could do is delete all their online accounts, get them fired from any job more influential than a cashier at Wendy's, and make them live.

@matrix I hear this kind of thing frequently from the hysterical types. As usual, we have the same old tropes.

1) Game doesn’t have trans people in it, its excluding/erasing us — therefore bad, or,

2) Game has tranners but you are allowed to interact with them same as any other kind of pc, including violently — therefore bad.

Then the crime statistics are bogus as bogus can be. Those are homicides, but its rarely the case they were killed because they were trans. In fact, the vast majority of murders in that number are Brazilian prostitutes. In Western Countries (you know, the evil ones) the number of murder of trans people killed is usually between 0-2 yearly.

Its just so much victim politics and cherry picked/manipulated statistics. I’m far from the only tranner that’s pointed this out thankfully, but unfortunately the sane voices are ostracized so they don’t get “air time” like the hysterical activists do.

Yeah, its bad that so many trans people are being killed in Brazil, and because they were prostitutes doesn’t make that somehow ok, but — that’s not a problem in the “evil” West — its fucking Brazils problem.

I think the worst part about being trans is having this these irritating people constantly making us look stupid.

@shebang
Yeah. The numbers are absolutely bogus. Trans people in the US are killed at about the same rate as women which is much lover than men and if you look at the cases, it's mostly robberies and house invasions.

@matrix Precisely so. So what exactly is the problem? Well in terms of murders there just isn’t one that’s that’s trans specific.

Whats so irritating about these “activist” organizations (which, lets be honest, are actually far left wing organizations, and LGBT or Trans is just an excuse to push Marxism as the “solution”) is that the best way to raise trans acceptance is to just be regular people doing regular things.

Merely by not being a hysterical purple haired cunt ranting I’ve probably done more for trans acceptance than any of these organizations have. Here is a surprise: turns out people don’t like being screeched at and called bigoted. The vast majority of the time they aren’t.

Even if someone is awkward around a trans person, that’s not the same as being bigoted. You have to give people a certain amount of time to get used to something they haven’t been around much. Once they see you are just doing your own thing they get comfortable just fine. The whole walking on eggshells thing is bad for trans acceptance, just makes us look weak and fragile.

@matrix That would be great, but unfortunately it's not viable.

We need to push for making the corporate media legally responsible for any trouble caused to the targets of their propaganda, and sue them into oblivion. We need media watchdog NGOs ready to offer legal services for free to their victims and represent them in court. Once they start to become ruined financially, their influence will diminish and the left will have to rely less on them to poison society with their ideology.

@xianc78 Lmao who is that guy? Serious Business.

Jokes aside, without the proper context all his ranting seems irrationa
