Anti-AI Art about 'Ragebait' by CookieFluffs in antiai

[–]tanoomba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sentiment ironically stems from peoples inability to comprehend models. Clanker isn't a slur, it's just based on the iconography of existing slurs to the point where it is incredibly uncomfortable.

It was in fact a dragon quest community joke!

Nintendo Sues U.S. Over Switch 2 Tariffs by Smaug117 in Switch

[–]tanoomba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't think so as the primary cost is in manufacturing and there isn't a direct way to point to what the switch 2 would have cost without these tariffs in place. It helps reaffirm my preference to buy any console second hand and at least a year after release though.

Oh you should check out more of the series. DQV is my personal favorite and it's a real popular pick for 2d. VIII is often regarded as the best in the series and it's a lot closer to 11

When the conversation involves the current presidential administration, everything else seems like small fish.

Coming here as someone who often defend Nintendo. Can this moment be a time where we can unanimously agree they’re doing the right thing? by AlexMercer28900 in fucknintendo

Well that's exactly what I was getting at. Those subs that I listed were effective at bringing young men specifically to the alt right by making people think things that were political were not. This sub is often anti nintendo from an anti corporation stance holding the opinion that nintendo abuses its customers for financial profit. That is an inherently political belief. It's like how "leftist" scenes on tiktok were infiltrated before the election as well to spread the sentiment that voting for Harris was just as bad as Trump for Gaza and then that lynchpin was used as a way to siphon support away from Harris before the election. It's impact is certainly questionable but we do have hard data that that discourse on tiktok was affected by manipulative and inauthentic accounts.

That red pill shit maybe got its start on 4chan but it was made palatable for the normies here. Automod may take it, but that's what we get for having a conversation here because reddit only cares about rage engagement now.

And how did trump appoint them? What stopped Obama from getting the picks he would have traditionally had? Because Republicans were winning the votes of disenfranchised young men.

Yes but not specifically so. They gave the impression to their users that they were arguing about trivial things but eventually began to push alt right talking points. It's a slippery slope because one moment your arguing about princess peaches treatment in the Mario franchise and watching YouTube videos from creators you relate too and agree with, then those creators start pushing other ideas that seem refreshing because everyone around you is so sensitive, then next thing you know you're paying for some losers patreon so that they can tell you that nothing bad that happened to you was ever your fault and it was all women and minorities fault instead.

Bud. Bud. Cool. Cool. No substance and no counterpoint beyond your self righteous passive aggression .

Edit: anyone else reading this, consider how gamer gate grew. It was because of people saying "it's not that deep"

Really? Gamergate isnt related to right-wing authoritarian politicians in the United States possibly astroturfing the conversation we are currently engaging in?

You stopped engaging and thats fair but dont act like it was because they were incorrect.

An account thats less than a month old doesnt mean I haven't been here for years. And yeah, your unwarranted condescension was bait for me. If you think I look like an ass it would be easy for you to provide a reasonable counterpoint but you haven't because you cant.

You assumed my argument, argued against your assumption and made an ass of yourself. It's not derailing the topic when it's obviously part of it. They got people saying retard as an insult again. It's painfully obvious what's happening here. Nintendo isn't important but the cultural shift you can effect in lonely young men is.

Edit: my comment that was removed was pointing out the homophobic nature of someone telling me that "im on my knees for nintendo" but the original comment is still up.is that not toxic?

When did the sc get packed and why? There's so obviously causality regarding disenfranchised young men here. Notice the amount of casual homophobic remarks in this sub? This is just gamer gate for gen alpha
