Classic Quartering nonsense, so in some ways this is like shooting fish in a barrel, but look at these hot hot takes.

Gamers are the most oppressed minority in the room. We've colonized their lands, appropriated their culture, and fetishize their art and way of life. It's gross and we need to do better.

The official trailer actually looks entertaining. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-mugKDQDlg

"When I get told by a woke" NOUNIFICATION IS HERE, PEOPLE sicko-hexbear-woke

Also tho fuck almost everything that the IP holders have done with Fallout since 1997.

The funniest part of freeze-gamer whining is that they will simultaneously act as if “geek culture” has some collective claim/say over the franchises it fetishizes but then also will defend capitalism to the last. They hate content being crafted to appeal to the “normie” audience but also genuflect to a system that incentivizes appealing to the mass market dollar.

It is an inevitable outcome when you have an audience incapable of creating their own art

An an audience incapable of thinking

When the lotr crap got released all they could do is seethe and repeat “evil cannot create. It can only destroy”.

The only art they can latch onto is one created a hundred years ago by a guy who hated Nazis lol. Then they pretend that it represents their views and that it’s peak media, so they don’t bother making anything else.

Explains AI art much it does

Kind of mind blowing to see them both complain about Amazon doing a poor job of representing satirical anti-capitalist media and then in the next breath demanding that it better not be satirical anti-capitalist media!

I was thinking about this bozo today, remembering the time he said the song that best describes him is weezers tired of having sex 🤣

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago

Aren't these same nerd chuds the ones that love "shades of grey morality" (grey jedi cringe etc) but now they're whinging about the whole binary good and evil thing?

"I'm a str8 white male and seeing all these strong weemon make me uncomfortable, please give me big strong greasy men I can oogl- I mean worshi-... Just give me a big Daddy to fill my dumb pig mouth with since I'm a beta and submitting to wahmen will turn me into a zeta instead, please my fragile masculinity depends on it"

[-] ashinadash@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

A woman will revert him to bug world for aspiring to his higher nature. He hopes a big Daddy will respect his masculinity a bit more. Y'know, bro solidarity :)

Fraternity eternity, bro code. Etc etc

A lot of these guys overlap with Andrew Tate fans. They pay money to men they consider superior to themselves so they can get berated and beaten down to rock bottom. If they can’t afford to be pay alpha male findoms, they rage on incel forums and beat each other down for free.

No wonder they like fascism. They’re too weak to go their own way and latch onto “superior men” to feel any sense of belonging and culture.

[-] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

Alpha male is so funny to me, they just have happened to have decent genes AND had grown up in a decent environment and have had their worldview shaped by unchallenged internal biases and most have that attitude that they're God's gift to earth but really have rolled nat 20's when it's mattered. Imo anyways. I also don't get paying someone to do that? Unless it's a lot of pent up self hatred that they don't work on. Literally if they have a gf/wife they could go on tinder (or Reddit, kinda where I like watching my porn at... there is some sus stuff at times be warned) together and find someone to blow her back out for free.

Any time someone uses the word "binary" and is not talking directly about coding or machine language it puts me on guard and makes me suspicious.

Typical soyboy gamers can’t handle binary triggers. Too busy gooning to fascism and underage Japanese girls

Bloody fuck i clicked quartered brain video, last time it took me months to scrub fascism from my youtube feed.
