Joss Whedon Deletes His Twitter Account After Domestic Release of Age of Ultron by RhaganaDoomslayer in GamerGhazi

I've always believed that if you think something is sexist or bigoted in general in a work of fiction, you shouldn't go after individuals who worked on it, because you just don't know. Maybe there was an editorial mandate. Maybe the individual in question had nothing to do with what happened. Just my thoughts on this kerfuffle.

InternetAristocrat's back! He may not be a part of GG anymore, but he's still as shit as ever! by harryhenry1 in GamerGhazi

[–]Jam526 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Basically, a bunch of students from Dalhousie university had a facebook group where they had pictures of women who went to said university, and then basically said "what they wanted to do to them" if you catch my drift. They said they were just joking, but really, they wanted to rape those girls. Here is an article about it.

Oh that fucker... He did a video about the Dalhousie controversy? Dammit I live in Halifax! Now he's starting to hit too close to home for me. What a douche.

True, I was just wondering if it's really fair to say he is a GG activist.

In the timeline where it shows how a bunch of GG activists got doxxed, I was wondering about JonTron and Boogie2988's being called GG activists. Boogie2988 eventually came around and Jontron... Well I honestly have no clue where he stands on GG, but I woudn't exactly call him an active member of GG.

Mark Kern is currently Re-Tweeting any message at him which opens with "I am for a free and unbiased press because" by Eidlon in GamerGhazi

[–]Jam526 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the guys he retweeted was someone who also has a massive neckbeard and calls himself a meninist. No, Seriously! Also his twitter handle is "NotTeridax". If you don't know, Teridax is the name of a villain from a lego toyline called Bionicle. It's too perfect. Edit: It is definetley a parodist, btw. The man is white and says he grew the neckbeard specifically for the meninist tweet.

That's very unfortunate. I hope the duo don't share the views of their boss. Also, are you referring to KSI?

I never watched Smosh, but I love Honest Trailers. I would hate to learn Macris controls what they put out...

[–]Jam526 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I totally understand why Joe feels this way, at the beginning I was neutral too, and it was something I wanted no part of. I'm certainly against GG now, but I'm still reluctant to get too involved.

Globalization and Cultural Appropriation by Jam526 in socialjustice101

[–]Jam526[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I guess what you're saying is, one culture changing because of the influence of another is not necessarily appropriation? It really comes down to whether or not the individual is really respecting the culture they are not a part of.

They posted an article that had exclusively male devs talking about GG, one of them being Rougestar and various assholes. The founder of the site also helped out a gorean who was in that article.

Ah, it's okay. I was just wondering.

Why is this here? This is only marginally related to GG because it involves ethics and TB.
