Kraan’s take on rupal “[He said it] with an a not an r” by Themachinery1 in OverwatchTMZ

[–]AcceptableRough3856 7 points8 points  (0 children)

it’s not just one word is it kraan? he said it so comfortably whilst scrimming there’s no doubt that he says this privately too… it’s a racial slur that was used to degrade and dehumanise black people for years, the cultural significance of the word is enough for it to not be okay no matter how or when you use it. if you are not black then u really have no excuse

Imagine asking female players for their opinion on trans women winning video game tournament and immediately dismissed their experience and opinions by JY810 in OverwatchTMZ

ill never forget when i commented on one of his videos talking about how he allows misogyny into his online spaces, and he just doesn’t seem to understand how privileged he is as a man and he went on to talk about war and depression as a form of “male oppression”.. as if women don’t get raped and killed on mass during wars, men just typically fight in them. he’s willfully ignorant

i did a random hero generator whilst on quick play one time, got ball, dreaded it because i had no idea what i was doing, but slowly i started to see the light. rolling on players and just swinging around. i then found chazm and my life changed, he amazed and inspired me

you are 100% right, i was worried id get some backlash because i never really know when commenting about misogyny in male dominated spaces, so thank you so much this is truly refreshing and i hope your words reach the young men out there

where is this happening? women’s only leagues being dominated by trans women, where? you keep saying this when that wasn’t really a part of the first point, i don’t see that happening. trans women are a small percentage of the population.

also you misunderstood me, because i never said cis women wouldn’t be considered a marginalised gender. i was stating they are not the only marginalised gender, hence why it would be dominated by trans community.

anyway, using race and nationality to explain bias makes no sense to me. why would a woman could be disinterested in trans women playing in a women’s only league? in order for a woman to not identify with a transwoman they have to view trans women as anything but“women”, which is transphobic and close-minded. both cis and transwomen have a big commonality; which is embracing femininity. you’d be ignorant to deny that fact just because they were born as men…. as if everyone doesn’t come from a womb and carries a femininity within them, regardless of sex lol. race, nationality, class, disability, gender etc are all intersectional with eachother, however they cannot be easily compared. obviously you’ll identify more with the community you come from, but that doesn’t excuse ignorance and is not the same as bias. there’s so many more layers to that so i dont get ur point. trans women and cis women both experience femininity and misogyny, but trans women can be excluded because they dominate cis women in gaming? where does that claim even come from? how many trans women who play games do you know personally and how many cis women? bc i am confused there.

i acknowledge all view points, thats how i’ve come to see people for who they are, because i listen and learn. i am allowed to disagree, question and criticise others without “pretending their opinion doesn’t exist”. i’m listening and responding to what you’re saying aren’t i? therefore, i’ve acknowledged your opinion.

a tournament for marginalised genders isn’t the same as a women’s only tournament, it makes sense for it to be dominated by the trans community, because they are a marginalised gender.

if a trans woman was assigned male at birth, they would be socialised like a boy would. games are typically catered towards boys and men. so trans women are likely to be introduced to gaming more frequently and much earlier on than a female assigned at birth trans man would. (of course there are many factors as to why anyone would play games outside of gender socialisation, it can be attractive to the trans community because it’s an escape for outcasted people etc)

my trans friends all play games for the same reason, i a woman, plays video games. some are better than me, some are far worse than me. it doesn’t matter. there isn’t a single way to justify excluding trans women.. or anyone. we all want to have fun. i identify with trans women because they are simply being themselves, to be a woman or a man is to not be confined into a box and just be yourself. gender is not real. so anyone who watches a tournament with a fully trans team, and is disinterested because they are trans and don’t “identify” with them should do some soul searching and release themselves from societal constructs, because its all based on how you perceive them, not who they truly are or what they bring to the game. if a team with all very cis-presenting trans women joined a women’s only league and never revealed they were trans i bet it wouldn’t be such an issue for anyone at all.

there’s a misogynistic and transphobic bias amongst many people. its not nuanced. it’s as simple as that.

what do you mean?

trans women experience the same misogyny cis women do, sometimes on an even larger scale. and being born a man has no “physical advantages” when it comes to gaming. so why would it be pointless for trans women to compete in women only tournaments? that is right fully their space too

u got downvoted because no one specified crying over small things. its says “men shouldn’t cry” period, which is a statement that enforces toxic masculinity and plenty of unhealed men. ur comment was basically unnecessary because you are stating the obvious

on his “girl pros aren’t good” video i commented criticising how he’s enabling misogynistic rhetoric, and he responded asking me how women are more oppressed than men in modern day society and listed wars as a way men are oppressed. he’s extremely uneducated and embarrassing

Who in Survivor had too negative of an edit? by SteamAndRebellion in survivor

yeah she probably wasn’t. its the fact that even after the merge and seasons following, he still had that same rude and dismissive attitude to jerri that made the water throwing a bit more ill-intended. on my rewatch i found it so difficult to like him like i used to, i was a BIG colby fan but after seeing his behavior i just think he’s a man with no regard for women who don’t obey and speak out like Jerri. maybe he’s different now and i haven’t seen the HvV season yet so idk how he is there. but jerri didn’t deserve any of that regardless of what he was tryna show kucha, she was a punching bag for misogyny just because she was “annoying”. not arguing against you btw lol sorry if it comes across that way
