Its absolutely enforced when we see it happen. Report any instance of the disengage rule being used improperly like that. We don't see everything and rely heavily on user reports to point out CoC violations

something something white cultural identification something

edit: I mean this seriously, I just can't remember what the exact terminology is for "participating in this [country music] culture as a way of reaffirming whiteness and the status quo that comes with it" settlers

He recently came out publicly supporting trans rights and specifically the right for trans kids to transition, much to the chagrin of his redditor fanbase, so tbh I think he's not that bad

Apart from using nazi dogwhistles a ton in his earlier videos (and to lesser extent in recent content) he also makes ableist and racist jokes out the ass. He was clearly raised on 4chan

Who would've thought that breadtubers are just liberals? Who could have possibly seen this coming? Stop paying attention to cOnTeNt CReAtoRs please

I can't help trying to imagine what a "sinless" movie/show would look like by those standards.

Probably like a Lolbertarian wet dream, ie. perfectly logical men (only men, no UnStaBLe FeeEEeeEmALeS) making perfectly logical decisions like fuckin robots for the fake nonsense conflicts they encounter, and the villain is either women or "The State(TM)" or WOKEness. so basically Atlas Shrugged lol

Yeah I genuinely think CinemaSins did irreparable damage to media literacy in that sense, they've fueled an anti-intellectual movement trying to rigidly compartmentalize art into strict templates and categories based on what they think is the "correct" way vs the "incorrect". Some user here who I can't remember once said something like: media and art have become a puzzle to be solved or a game to be broken, instead of an experience for the viewer full of ideas and meaning. IMO that's the true "treat culture" and a byproduct of capitalism reducing art to a commodity instead of a genuine representation of the human condition and the emotional honesty it requires to fully engage with it

we tend to hatewatch things a LOT less

Tbf dunk_tank and by extension this comm are both basically hatewatching for social media posts. I'm not making a value judgment on that (I mod dunk_tank lol) but leftists absolutely have the same proclivity for ragebait, I think most terminally online people do, we're just not as publicly frothing as reactionaries are because leftists generally don't try to make careers/money off it

You'd think with all their snobby affluence that these guys would be able to read but nope! They probably love CinemaSins too and think it's "epic bacon" lemmitor

Sounds like a great reason to not buy any of the DnD 2024 shit then. My players and I are perfectly happy with 5e

Right I thought the average size of a congress approved defense budget was just under a trillion lol

Two predictions:

  1. This will cost upwards of $300mil to make

  2. It will make $1bil+ because Minecraft is the best selling game of all time by far and every single child even remotely aware of it will want to go see it

If they wanna ban tiktok okay sure fine, let's ban all corporate social media platforms. At least tiktok isn't in bed with the NSA snowden

Also I gotta say, I know a disturbing number of people (ie. americans) who genuinely think the CPC is deeply invested in their personal data or what they do or believe. Like do these fuckers not realize the US govt can fuck up your shit infinitely more than the Chinese govt ever could?

We've seen an uptick in people posting dunks in here that belong in dunk_tank, as well as low-hanging fruit that gets removed from or isn't allowed in dunk_tank anymore. For context, rule 8 of dunk_tank:

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

There's a reason that dunks are cordoned off to their own comm, some users rightfully don't want to see reactionary nonsense all the time, even if we're making fun of the person who said it. /c/cth is a general-purpose comm but it's NOT for posting some random nobody asshole twitter user's bad takes, the absolute best course of action to take when you see that stuff out in the wild is to either directly shit on them yourself, or ignore them and don't give them more attention.

From this point on I'm going to be more stringent about moderating this. I get it, it's fun to dunk on the libs and the blue checks and the frothingfash and that's why we have a whole dedicated comm for that. Any post that's obviously meant to be "hey look at this piece of shit, let's laugh at how bad their opinions are, upbears to the left and emojis in chat" belongs in the_dunk_tank. And any super low-hanging fruit doesn't belong on this site, period (see TDT rule 8 above). We have better things to do with our time than give unearned attention, time and energy to low-follower-count nobodies yelling into the void.

Thanks for your discretion comrades, stay sicko sicko-jammin

edit: as others have pointed out, /c/[email protected] is a good place for any and all dunking content not allowed here. Post that ragebait to our comrades at the 'grad, they'll make good use of it. Also, per rule 9 of TFT dunking on fediverse users is still explicitly allowed so it's still open season on those in our own backyard.
