TheAardvark posted:Were people actually that worried about it that the end of the Cold War seriously effected people? Honest question, I was a small child when it happened, and most media that covers the period now makes it seem like nobody cared at all. I hate to burst your bubble, but I still remember nuke drills in 1st grade (6 yo), consisting of getting under your desk and covering your eyes. Nobody would actually fire close to us, a rural town of 438 residents, but it was basically earthquake drills except with the whole “fry your eyeballs out” bonus dmg. War Games was a fun movie, but seeing the nascent AI go through hundreds of WWIII scenarios involving Baltic First strike, Funda Gap response launch, Red October in the mouth of the Potomac River... hundreds of plans and stats coldly displayed on Atari level graphics. The new awesome game was Missile Command where I learned about ICBMs and Multiple Re-entry Vehicle warheads and shooting down big rockets with prototype Patriot missiles. I don’t know how people alive during the Cuban Missile crisis except the government didn’t tell the whole story to the public until much later. But the USSR was always the bad guy in the 80s just like drug kingpins in the 90s and Muslims when all you kids were getting participation trophies and free porn.

The Bible posted:I enjoy video games but goddamn, I've never called myself a Gamer for fear of being lumped in with... Gamers. I wish this were turned into agitprop posters and wallpapered all over towns and cities. But the horrible pendulum would return and we'd have to endure another round of simpletons pretending that being a gamer is a revolutionary activity/lifestyle and countless, countless thinkpieces about "Who said 'gamers' were bad?  " all brought to you by kotaku and activision.Do not converse with the gamer. Put him down like a beast.

Why does everything have to be about sex with these people? Just get offline and do something to make yourself more interesting. Do a pushup, read a book. You then might be able to do a coom with another person, and they also might do a coom with you

Meme Poker Party posted:Yeah that figure is so comically overdone that I feel comfortable dismissing without research. Maybe it was 99% never become partners or something? That at least sounds plausible. I streamed a couple times because I felt like it a ways back, and the first thing i did was go and tell friends "hey i'm streaming a thing check it out" and they checked it out, so yeah, it's literally unbelievable to me that 99% of streams never get a viewer.

Tbf, it's not as if we don't live in a sex obsessed society. But I also think a lot of it is, they're depressed and don't do anything else because it doesn't interest them. They get obsessed with sex because they think it'll make them happy (it won't).

quote:The term simp (in re: "Someone who does way too much for a person they like"), meanwhile, is often used as generic trash talk rather than with any specific sexual connotation. “Simp” is short-hand for “simpleton” and nobody can convince me otherwise. Also this is the objectively correct definition of the word and anyone that says differently is wrong, including you, the reader. I. M. Gei fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Dec 25, 2020 |

In all likelihood, Twitch probably just knows a good chunk of their popular streamers are “hot” gamer girls propped up by these pathetic loser simp incels who really are extremely aware of what they are and are so thin skinned about it that if they get made fun of at all, they immediately leave. If they leave, Twitch has less market share, which means decreased ad revenue. Twitch is doing what it thinks will keep its business as strong as it can be by providing a safe space for one of the most sensitive pathetic loser demographics on the internet. Sucks that they’re doing it though because when large organizations do this stuff it just strengthens the Republican / Jordan Peterson type arguments that the left is really the true censoring fascist party who will ultimately ban any criticism or negative language whatsoever.

Twitch isn't "the left", and the right wing is going to talk poo poo no matter what you do so conceding to them in any manner is a failure.

Sort of like SA used to rely heavily on self-deprecatory humor. Between that xqcs video I posted, and all the streamers calling their subscribers/patron those words for years now, none of them really give a gently caress.

Last paragraph I see what you're going for but those folks literally cry persecution over people saying "happy holidays" instead of merry Christmas. Might not be good to give any credence or consideration to their weird, narrow worldviews.

Colonel Cancer posted:Twitch isn't "the left", and the right wing is going to talk poo poo no matter what you do so conceding to them in any manner is a failure. Oh yeah for sure. I don’t think Twitch is “the left” but I do think if “the right” hears about stuff like this, they will use it (like they will use literally anything) to cry about how the world is moving to a “fee fees matter more than anything else and we will literally stop the economy flat if even a single person gets their feelings hurt about anything” and that’s the kind of thing that actually will cause people to sympathize with the viewpoint of the right. And that’s something this world doesn’t need. Basically, I’m saying Twitch is being overreactive and ridiculous here and I think it’s only going to hurt the goal of “making the world a better and more egalitarian place for all of us” in the long run. Hopefully I’m just being dramatic or whatever though. GreatGreen fucked around with this message at 01:28 on Dec 26, 2020 |

The simps are the biggest users of the word simp on twitch, if you want to preserve the market share produced by pathetic loser simp incels who are extremely aware of what they are, banning the word simp is completely counterproductive.
