No, but telling the guy, cause again no one has yet to actually tell me what he said factually and all I have to go on is an Anita all caps tweet about how his reason for being married and not wanting "hypothetical" rumors popping up is "not good enough", is pretty lovely and invasive of another persona's relationship. If someone wants to actually show me what he himself has said with his own words about this, I am all ears. But all I got is Anita, the one person who should KNOW drat well about online rumors, telling him to gently caress off with his wish to not create strain in his marriage.

But sure, call me a chud and act like I dread going to work and seeing wimminz that make up the employees in my store. Cause I don't have a post history of making fun of shitheads like that on the internet or anything. Not in this very thread, even.

Chud. Stop dreading going to work and seeing women.

i'm glad people are willing to give the benefit of the doubt to, and rush to the defense of, a dude who casually tosses out slurs. i'm sure his reasoning is sound and comes from a good place and this isn't just a case of a known shithead being a shithead.

Ninja, to Polygon posted:

“If I have one conversation with one female streamer where we’re playing with one another, and even if there’s a hint of flirting, that is going to be taken and going to be put on every single video and be clickbait forever,” Blevins told Polygon.

.....

“[Not being connected to other women online,] that was something I made 100-percent sure,” he said. It was his decision alone to keep his streaming partners men-only. “That was not even her. She had nothing to do with it. That was me being, ‘I love our relationship,’ and, ‘No — I’m not even gonna put you through that.’”

for me, figures at his tier (11.3 million subscribers) of fame have a responsibility that he's not fulfilling, and doesn't seem to care to. and i think that (plus the slurs) make him a shithead

I have never heard of this guy before 3 hours ago so :shrug:?

So here it is then, presumably he didn't consult her about it. If they did have the talk about that stuff and she preferred to not deal with it, I don't think anyone has the right to get on him about it. If they did talk about it and she said she wouldn't mind, but he still went with this option then it lovely to disregard her thoughts like that.

I saw it during the early release in a old theater in Pittsburgh and man it hit me like a freight train at points. Was also my idea for a second date which I think worked out, but other stuff not related to me kind of killed that potential relationship (nothing malicious and we were both amiable and supportive still a bit of a bummer though)

Anyway Mr Rogers is a person I never grew up with, but goddamn do I still somehow feel strongly about him. And I barely have seen any of his shows outside of the Twitch marathon.

i can't believe the same thread that just posted videos about parasocial relationships has unrealistic expectations on the power of a single streamer to shape online Discorse.

it's ironic that the most visible advocate for feminism in games has indirectly contributed to a more toxic online community. I mean advocate all you want but if it just leads to more virulent and targeted harassment then maybe a better strategy is in order.

tropes v women failed in its goal to broaden understanding of feminism in gaming. the question is whether that goal was ever possible or was that project just a dud.

If you think better things arnt possible I get that, I've been there. but if you accept that things can go differently maybe the internet don't always be poo poo.

This whole Ninja thing, most political drama really, is just a debate over Dogma or pragmatism. The right ideas or the right results. I get that people feel good when bad people are dragged but since that does basicly nothing, maybe treating spreading the word as an ad campaign and not a hobby might be better?

You know, Obi-Wan asks if the fool or the fool who follows is more foolish. That applies to Tie Fighter pilots. What kind of lunatic sees a bunch of insane redneck bush pilots flying into the superstructure of your death laser and then says "yo guys, we've got this!"
