something about the pronouns guy I don't think people talk about enough is that he streamed Starfield for six hours and enjoyed himself. Like he had no ill-will towards the game until he came across the clone character and had the chance for a pronouns rant. He enjoyed something, he had moments where he felt connected to the art, but the siren call of the culture war beckoned him over, and now he's still screaming about pronouns for money.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 7 months ago

All that fun evaporated the instant he was so cruelly reminded of the real world politics he was so desperately trying to escape ooooooooooooooh

[-] [email protected] 25 points 7 months ago

When other people dare to visibly exist in a way that is different than the bubble world cishet white boy pronouns

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

These are the people calling you a sensitive snowflake who needs a safe space

[-] [email protected] 35 points 7 months ago

Duality of man: the only person in the world who actually enjoyed Starfield also hated it because of pronouns.

Join the 41%

You know that chuds are lying when they say they care about trans mental health because they fucking love that trans people hurt themselves.

Every westerner is a fascist.

[-] [email protected] 42 points 7 months ago

Oh shit, it's a reference to that? Wait, are they calling fucking Dunkey trans because he poked fun at the most embarrassing manchild in the world??? cat-confused

[-] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago

No, they're saying

Dunkey can go kill himself "like 41% of trans people do"

[-] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Yeah but trans people are at best tangentially related to any of this, these dickheads just have that percentage at the tips of their tongues constantly and are ready to sling hate speech at anything and anyone at the slightest provocation

[-] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago

Yeah but trans people are at best tangentially related to any of this

That's the thing. Anti-trans brainworms are so pervasive that they have to bring up how much they hate trans people at every opportunity they can. Chuds constantly think about their culture war bullshit. Everything has to come back to it because it's half of their personality.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

That is way too cute of an emote/image for the horrible context hahaha

[-] [email protected] 19 points 7 months ago

Yeah, it's a vile fucking thing to say.

It's more than that, in my opinion. These people are monsters.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

I admire the PR acumen on these dudes for alienating the average Dunkey watching gamer by wishing death upon an extremely popular gaming personality for something this minor

[-] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago

For similar reasons, I utterly despise typical internet smuglords that say "who hurt you" or "get help" as put-downs. They categorically don't mean well and see vulnerable people as targets to bully and silence.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago

They categorically don't mean well and see vulnerable people as targets to bully and silence.

Yeah exactly this, it's all just concern trolling so they can feel superior to you.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago

Same goes for anybody who accuses furries of being mentally ill.

pronouns

This isn't a good look in any way lmao

[-] [email protected] 41 points 7 months ago

Hey it's me, the adult throwing a baby temper tantrum over a video game!

[-] [email protected] 37 points 7 months ago

Yeah, it's me, the pooped his pants guy 😎

[-] [email protected] 30 points 7 months ago

Looks like he's got an entire defense squad in the comments responding to every comment making fun of him

[-] [email protected] 35 points 7 months ago

Please add a CW for the horrific transphobia.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 7 months ago

There's so much weird chud numerology and arcane symbols you have be on the lookout for luffy-exhausted

[-] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago

yea It's truly a coward's way of communicating. They'll go on about getting censored, yet they're doing it to themselves.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

What? I'm kinda out of town loop on what to look for here.

Poor Dunkey.

"Based" continues to be a dogwhistle for chuds most times I see it used in the internet wild. debord-tired

Hey what's up, army of manchildren, wanna continue to be my loyal sycophants and display your utterly odious presence upon this comment section? Sound like a good use of your time?

[-] [email protected] 24 points 7 months ago

I think that he deleted the comment, but god damn do you get some bad recommendations for clicking on one Dunkey video

[-] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago

Dunkey occupies a sort of RedLetterMedia-esque position where his content is non-political enough that it's palatable to audiences across the entire political spectrum

[-] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

Dunkey also has a legacy of chuddery in online games (see his history with League of Legends) so I wouldn't be surprised if that's a factor too

[-] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

Yeah, I misunderstood this post at first thinking Dunkey was being transphobic as well because I remember him being the typical Gamer manchild, slurs and all, that one would expect to be that way. I haven't seen anything from him in years so maybe he's different now, but I was a little surprised to see he has fans here because he definitely seemed like an edgy loser back then.

Gamergate and its consequences

[-] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

What’s up with the voice acting? Is Bioware just totally hollowed out and everything is phoned in or is it bad at large? i threw on a long play of dragon age: origins and skimmed through it. While still goofy, it at least tried to take itself seriously.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

Hasn't Veilguard been in development for almost a decade? Maybe it was written before people were completely fed up with smarmy Marvel dialogue

[-] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago

I read article saying basically this. The concept is basically Dragon Age: Avengers but they finished it years after that was played out

[-] [email protected] 17 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

That's absolutely brilliant, just stellar corporate decision making chefs-kiss

It'll still be a bummer if Bioware gets taken behind the shed by EA for this though

Mage does blood magic and summons unholy power hypersus

"So... that just happened!" so-true

[-] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

A similar curse hit Concord: it wanted to be a Guardians of the Galaxy version of Overwatch, and both concepts are already played out.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago

Umm actually the reason Concord failed was because it had too many genders and hair colours in it smuglord
