Funny guy. Christian Annihilationist on most days. Autistic. Venezuelan. Not sure what brand of leftist I am, but it is one of them. 20, exactly. He/him.
@CharMayCry
This is not knowing things this is being autistic. My brother in Christ you were not born when this happened, no part of this makes you look anything but insane
@yacobg42
Lady Bird is genuinely one of the best movies about being a teenager ever made, frankly. It got teens *right* in a way I hadn’t seen for a while
@LegoKingo
It earnestly humanizes everyone and seems to bear genuine affection for Mexico City, and somehow that makes it even MORE deliberately grimy and cruel and borderline nihilistic. It manages to achieve what Jacob Geller would refer to as “rotten” status BY humanizing every char
@tamoorh
Tamoor come on , don't feed into the narrative that lead to NJ making a homophobic presentation about original Dante. Honestly, I think one of the failures of 7thgen games media was uncritically closing ranks around ninja theory and acting condescending about Japanese games.
@CharMayCry
Yeah and I’m the kind of retard who doesn’t ever stop responding, so I just found it mildly strange that you found it mildly funny and continued because of said stubbornness lol
@AliceAvizandum
You know that scene in every Ace Combat game where you’ve built up enough of a reputation to where when you show up, all of the enemies are like <<<Oh God, it’s Three Strikes!>>> and start losing their shit?
That is what this is. The Demon Lord of Kensington has arrived.
@AliceAvizandum
Man who aggressively misunderstands the offensiveness of his own fucking name fails to understand STALKER, who coulda thunk it
Why do people, even certain modders, always fixate on the tacticool element of a game that’s mostly hanging around campfires and throwing screws at air
@nise_yoshimi
Have you watched the new Godzilla, it seems to be so ubiquitously adored by literally everyone, even people who understand its heinous politics
@nise_yoshimi
Have you heard of their current president who literally ran on an anti-feminist platform.
He tried to *abolish* the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family
@nise_yoshimi
It’s the pathetic, crumbling end of 2014 “triggering the libs” politics, the last crumbling remnant. Now that it’s considered cool and based to be accepting and left leaning even among edgier irony types, these guys have no power left and are reduced to this
@binauralfusion
@AliceAvizandum
No one, especially not the people you were responding to, thinks that you’re at fault for any of this, or holds you in any kind of contempt. But how do you expect us to react to DE’s lead directors all being booted explicitly as the game gets a TV deal?
@nise_yoshimi
The general state of women’s rights in South Korea is basically “what if guys who still rabidly hate Anita Sarkeesian got to run their own country”
Several gacha companies, including NEXON, have fired animators over an imageboard conspiracy around, I shit you not, the 🤏 sign.
@VoicesByZane
It sounds silly, overzealous, and fundamentally misunderstanding of what AI voices are and what they do. I had some sympathy for you in the past, but this refusal to understand where things are is just pathetic. By all means, sever them ties
@headfallsoff
Jackson I hate to become a consoomer but unfortunately this seems goated. 5’s gameplay transplanted onto 3’s story would be game of the century
@Isi_baehr
@AliceAvizandum
You can just feel how badly this guy’s seething that a Palestinian has literally any status symbols or treats. He’s so mad that Palestinians can still buy porches
@nise_yoshimi
I love how it’s so stupid and unpopular to anyone who isn’t literally senile that even the through line of Ace Combat, a series literally sponsored by the JSDF, is “lol the regular JSDF’s bad already, why would you want more military. Also we did Hiroshima to ourselves”
@headfallsoff
It’s funny because I would absolutely argue that RDR2 is probably the best story and best game Rockstar’s ever produced (besides Max Payne 3) and it **still** cannot get away from this shit. How did the Housers ever get this close to the levers of power man
@RaceplayShawty
I mean, North Korea is far from good or nice, but a.) we made them that way by reducing their country to cinders and b.) they don’t even crack top 20 in terms of worst people US presidents have saluted
@Devon_OnEarth
I wasn’t even born during the whole post 9/11 American psychosis, so I gotta ask you oldies:
Is this what it was like? Did we all go this insane?
@nise_yoshimi
It’s rightfully seen now as bizarre and psychotic to be Like This, so all they can do is start letting more and more of the mask slip in the hope that it can keep the fumes of cringe SJW compilations alive when people correctly call them evil freaks
@nise_yoshimi
That last bit basically isn’t a joke either, Belka, the country that famously nuked itself, became fascist because an Osean land scam collapsed the economy so hard that the far-right, I shit you not, DEMOCRATIC LIBERAL PARTY swept into power
@RaceplayShawty
Honestly you can’t and shouldn’t pin this on TVTropes, it’s an entirely neutral glossary that explicitly says that tropes are just tools, not to mention that the death of the phenomenon has nothing to do with even CINEMASINS brain, who are a better target for this sort of thing
@binauralfusion
@AliceAvizandum
@binauralfusion
genuine question: do I need to caveat that other developers in ZA/UM exist and that they are valid whenever discussing about how bad the three leads on DE getting involuntarily booted off by the producers for not being profitable anymore?
@nise_yoshimi
So it was the DLP that ordered their own country be nuked. Seven times.
Ace Combat is the best anti-war war series ever made man. Genuinely my favorite game franchise
@nise_yoshimi
Yoshimi at this point I think you NEED to watch it to formulate an actual opinion on it. I can’t say you’re wrong, but I think you need to watch it to both have this question answered and to be a more qualified hater
@TilFolkvang
You know, usually, I try an give some sort of credit or see the side of this sort of talk, maybe try and understand where this comes from.
With this, I can say with confidence that this is absolute bullshit and games would be worse off if you tried it.
@binauralfusion
@AliceAvizandum
I apologize if that’s disrespectful, but how exactly am I supposed to talk about this? Does this whole mess turn fine because you happen to exist and have seniority?
@nise_yoshimi
Especially since you’re a Godzilla fan, and my understanding is that nationalism, soft and hard, is kind of a fixture of Godzilla’s identity from the start
@xoxogossipgita
That’s genuinely surprising, I’m ashamed in myself for that but I genuinely did not expect her to have other axes to grind besides the Zionist one
@RaceplayShawty
I saw your Tom king thread man, my impression I get from you is that 95% of all comics released nowadays are nothing short of trash
And also like, I say this as both a weeb and comics fan- I do not think the existence of manga nor of comics should be denigrated to win points.
@nise_yoshimi
Piracy is a fun and legal thrill, and we’ve both watched more compromised works. Hell I watched Chinatown on Netflix and Roman Polanski is literally “on sight” for me
@RasenBran
I genuinely have no clue what I’m looking at here. I cannot for the life of me make sense of what’s supposed to be going on in this frame. SEED makes eleventy trillion dollars an hour.
@Seamus_Malek
Bad take Seamus. This sort of thing isn’t for us, it’s a useful primer for the more politically disengaged. Even if it’s sometimes cringe, it’s useful, and actively helped radicalize me
@AliceAvizandum
See, blowback is a bloody good podcast, but their one failing- and it’s a rather big one- is how much they’ll pin on the US even when its not the main actor.
I’ll never forget the offhand bit in season one there they threw us involvement in KOSOVO under the bus
@RaceplayShawty
Nah Anita's too fundamentally mundane and normal to get the thielbux. It's part of what made GG so odd in retrospect she was basically saying feminism 101 stuff
@gracecthdralprk
@SAMOYEDCORE
So you believe the very concept of an indigenous person is a fascist one then?
Goddamn, you’re so colonialist you’d make captain cook blush
@RaceplayShawty
I have ONE thing in its defense, which is that it may be one of Trent Reznor’s best soundtracks. Genuinely second to The Social Network, if not better.
No defenses for anything else though.
@nise_yoshimi
Well, it’s a star pupil being compared to the grandmaster there, but in the case of Woo, I’m sorry but teahouse fight does clear. I like guns too much to not say that
@bigblackjacobin
Edward this is your worst take by far. I have not seen one singular 30 rock clip that did not make me laugh, and. I don’t get why you’re shitting on the people’s show on this day of merriment
@RaceplayShawty
Like, I remember That Barnes And Noble Post, it borders on Sinophobia to pose the comics do the east as some existential threat to the comics of the west but also all shit
@Comrade_Yui
@letterboxd
I earnestly feel that calling a movie like this “Chinese propaganda” derogatorily is a dog whistle for Imperial Japan apologia
@citrussalt
I think considering the, frankly, skin crawling history Japan has with Korean women in particular, pretending that Japan is more feminist than Korea is nothing short of apologia
@AliceAvizandum
Alice you joked once about how vanilla is illegal now but as a cishet male who’s main kinks are named shit like “mommy dommy” and “paizuri”, reading these tweets feels like what Riley must feel at berghain
