The Tanoubliette: Pussy Hurt and Delusions or TTPHAD for short.

Lith: "the idea that if you think drawing cartoons is okay, you're essentially a racist redneck"

Straw man.

Quaid: "The internet is fucking devious in its ability to convince people, through sheer volume and access, that their beliefs are acceptable or even 'right'. Confirmation bias is going to be the true ongoing struggle of the digital age."

A THOUSAND TIMES "YES".

Iannis: "Honest men exist. Eventually they will find their voice, and other honest men will hear them. More signal and less noise would be nice. But only nice. Not necessary."

Hear hear!

There's a lot you don't understand, bro.

Lurkingdirk: "Can someone make this A Moon Bat's avatar?"

What's the obsession with changing my avatar/name/title? I have bent over backwards to ensure the only way anybody could be bothered by my posts is to go out of their way, not just into the Rickshaw, but the specific part of the Rickshaw dedicated to containing my "objectionable" views. Where the fuck else do you want me to go? If you want me to be banned, just suggest that to the mods. No need for this passive-aggressive "let's fuck with his profile" bullshit. Get a life, dude.



Skanda: "I find it incredibly amusing he's replying to various forum threads all inside his rickshaw thread. Dumb ass locked himself in solitary and is still trying to have conversations with people in other subforums."

Correction: I am enjoying the freedom of expressing myself where it won't result in a group bitchfest. I honestly don't care if nobody engages me in here.

Tell you what I find incredibly amusing: That, despite my self-censorship, many posters DO go out of their way, not just to read my posts, but to respond to them. I did not expect that.

I also find it amusing that, after an excruciatingly painful Hodj/Hoss obnoxiopalooza, somehow my name comes up for ridicule even though I'm effectively a non-presence.

Big Phoenix: "The core of the problem is that before these tards had no platform, with youtube, fb, tumblr and the like give these whiny cunts a free platform that reaches the majority of humanity."

Yeah, and I wouldn't have heard of most of them if it wasn't for the angry posters here. Thanks, guys, for warning me about how terrible these people are! Otherwise, I would only have heard about them after they stole my free speech, accused me of rape and ruined my video games, right?

eXarc: "Well, with all the other shit mixed in with this stupid fucking radfem craziness...can you blame me for believing it? :X"

Yes.

Phazael: "One side tries to deal in logic which is what wins debate by set definable criteria, but the other side just plugs their ears, chants, and turns the crazy up to 11."

I'm 100% sure "the other side" would see things exactly the same way, only with the roles reversed.

Interestingly, both are right. Both are wrong. Go figure.


Phazael: "The only real way to win is to just keep feeding them rope and letting them hang themselves, while stopping them cold whenever they start invading other people's space."

Wait, so the solution ISN'T to mock, ridicule, and antagonize them into enlightenment? I actually agree with you here. Fuck it, +1 for you.

khorum: "The dumbass even cites GONE HOME like it's anything other than a long-overdue public service that people can refund that shit now."

I've heard if you repeat a lie enough, you start to believe it. Do you believe this shit yet?

No, the lie is the whole "Gone Home is shit"/"Gone Home is not a video game"/"Gone Home was praised because QUEERS" narrative.

"I don't like Gone Home" is an opinion, sure.

"Gone Home is not a video game and it only got good reviews because pretentious reviewers love them some LGBT content" is not just an opinion, it's an attempt to draw a line in the sand separating the "right" from the "wrong". It's defensive gamers getting butthurt over something they don't like getting positive attention, so they attempt to politicize it to try to push their narrative. Therein lies the lie.
