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

    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.

    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?

      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.

        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
