Okay, can someone PLEASE explain to me how a volleyball game is sexist?

Or like that guy who found a meteor or some shit, he got ripped to fucking shreds for wearing a t-shirt with a large-breasted woman on it. People were calling the shirt sexist.

HOW CAN A FUCKING SHIRT BE SEXIST? IT'S A SHIRT!

Sexism is hatred of a group of persons based on sex, right? So if you had a game that actively promoted hating women (or men), that would be sexist, absolutely. But how does "attractive women" equate to sexism? How?

Just scream rape if he gets an inch closer to you. He's probably a war vet who lost his best friend while he was bleeding in his arms, and he spiraled into a depression afterwords, causing his wife to leave him because he's not the same he was before, eventually leading him to just go through life day by day instead of enjoying it, but being willing to see it through to the end.

To be honest they're not meaning to say sexist it's really just a decade long string of spelling errors. This entire time they've just been trying to say "sexy" not sexist. If you look at it in retrospect it really makes sense when you fix the spelling error.

SJWs have succesfully managed to completely devalue the sexist term. It used to apply to women who were forced into positions without their consent. Now it's about virtual videogame characters not weighing enough kilos.

Sort of like racism. Racism used to be a pretty heavy accusation. Now, the word is used so casually and liberal, literally everyone can be called racist.

It's just ego play. These people are the product of a generation that has yet to find a purpose with their lives. They're lost and want to seek a meaning. So they create fictional villains in their minds to justify their massive egos.

>3. The feminists who constantly argue about whether you can be a real feminist or not without believing in X, Y and Z and wanting to empower women in some very specific way, and who demand everybody support controversial policies like affirmative action or affirmative consent laws (bailey). Then when someone says they don’t really like feminism very much, they object “But feminism is just the belief that women are people!” (motte) Then once the person hastily retreats and promises he definitely didn’t mean women aren’t people, the feminists get back to demanding everyone support affirmative action because feminism, or arguing about whether you can be a feminist and wear lipstick.

This is literally NeoFag in a nutshell.

Because they're redundant.

You've got to fill an article, right? But what's the point in doing a review when people can check /v/, or otherwise talking about the game itself when people can just watch an LP? There's no factual information to convey that can't be done elsewhere, or in a press release.

So you're left with writing your stupid opinions to fill an article. Now, we can get stupid opinions elsewhere - like tumblr - for free, so this is redundant too, but for the moment clickbait titles bring in the gullible and it keeps the money flowing.

So, the reason games journalists are fucking hacks is that their career is redundant.

Because for the most part they're not journalists. They're average jackasses with a blog shitposting about tangential and in-my-mind-it-was-real social meta of the games, rather than discussing whether the game functions well as a game. They're bitching about the color of the handle on a hammer instead of trying to figure out if it properly drives nails.

Very few people actually *want* to become video game journalists. Nobody wastes years of their lives and thousands of dollars getting a journalism degree so they can write for Kotaku. Vidya journalism is where the rejects go. The rejects who happen to have a gentle understanding of vidya (and sometimes that isn't even true).

As shitty as real news reporting is these days, your average video game journalist isn't nearly skilled or intelligent enough to report on things that actually matter. Vidya journalist constantly write pieces loosely related to vidya because they are desperately attempting to escape to the real world which won't have them.

Most of them have complete contempt for the subject they are supposed to be writing about. Being a video game journalist is the equivalent of wanting to be a 1337 SWAT operator and only being able to get hired as a mall cop.

Remember when everyone who was even tangentially involved with videogames would mock the moral crusaders of the 90s? Remember when the only people who complained about the corrupting influence of fictional works were soccer moms and old-fashioned evangelicals? I think there was always this implicit understanding that their way of thinking would fade away as the new generation took over and old-fashioned values became less widespread. The sad truth we are now faced with is that people from within our own generation are now turning against us. It's not something that we can just assume will go away once all the baby boomers are gone.

You know, I'm fine with roleplay but all I got from this was
>I roleplay as an edgy lesbian who was happy that billions of people (including my best friend/fake husband) died and my entire homeland turning into a desolate hellscape of death, disease and torment and who makes absolutely no effort to rescue that best friend's child whom he loved more than life itself in favour of fucking my new lesbian gf who is just as edgy and abrasive towards others as I am

So basically all I can think of is that this person is roleplaying as an incredibly evil, abrasive and apathetic asshole whom would benefit the world most by dying immediately.

I've always thought that it was important to carefully examine the greater context behind your character's motivations when roleplaying so you can really understand what kind of character you are RPing. Apparently this person failed to put that much thought into it.

I don't know why people are surprised that gaming journalism sucks, how can you expect honesty from people that depend on the advertisement money from the things they're supposed to report? That's why I always thought GamerGate was silly, as if some girl sleeping around for scores was the worst thing they did.

I miss the days of old dead trees gaming mags. They sucked too but at least it was limited to showing what new games looked like, giving a few dumb hints and written by hacks who didn't want to be taken seriously as journalists.

From what I understand, it's a hunger strike to protest the university dean because some random person from a passing car yelled "Nigger" at a student and they want him to admit to and apologize for his white male privilege.
It's not even an isolated incident, similar things are happening in other universities, like Yale

this is what will make it so I can never understand these people, the overwhelming amount of privilege (first time i've used this unironically) one would have to have to complain about hurtful words while attending Yale is mindblowing

I can't ever understand it. As far as i've heard the Yale thing is different from Missou because nobody actually did racist shit, there was just a professor who sent out an email basically saying "there are better things to worry about than the way others dress on Halloween," even my mother, who is as liberal as it gets, called me the other day to talk about how insane this is when one of these "people" went on the view to talk about the Yale "situation."

The only reason these people exist is because they couldn't get into actual journalism, so they resort to an industry with zero standards for "journalism" which, in reality, amounts to nothing more than advertising.

Imagine how depressing their lives are, having to explain to people what they do for a living, laughed at and ridiculed by everyone other than their fellow game "journalists".

It's almost funny because the way they act, they way they turn everyone into a villain and spread their bigotry, it's pretty much turned me into exactly the thing the casual media would think they're against.

I've started to hate black folks because of the way they act, constantly hiding behind the "YOU'RE RACIST" claims while they chimpout.
Due to the neo-feminists I've started to wish for the days of actual sexism, back when women were kept in the house at the kitchen and weren't allowed to work so they didn't go out and spread their shitty ideals.
Because of the hamfisted homosexuality in EVERYTHING I've started to form bad opinions against anyone who's gay/bisexual because I feel like they'll be one of /those/ people.

I don't want to be this kinda person. I never wanted to be. I was always open minded and supportive of equal rights for every living creatures, but now... I don't know anymore. I just don't know anymore.

With all this bullshit, refugees and shit, I've started hating on sandniggers - I never really minded them - they're just normal people.
Then the other day, a new student, originally from Iran, transfers to my school. He can't speak my language but is pretty fluent in english. Bearded, high-pony tail.
So one cold morning, I forgot my smokes home. I see this guy having a puff and go on and bum him a cigarette.
"Only if ya let me bum one back, mate" he said with a joking smile.
We start talking shop, he's a really nice guy.
He tells me he's a bartender at a local bar - I begin to frequent that bar with friends - I eat lunch with him and is now one of "the guys".
Nicest fucking dude I have ever known - would push you out of the way of a car and let it hit him if it came down to it.
Prejudice sometimes has it's moments. I saw a somalian immigrant once walk to a local minimart and immediately thought "Wow, out of the people here, he'd be the guy to rob a store"
Soon enough, he goes to the cash register and pulls out a fucking knife. Cashier had a gun under the table though, so he ran.

I've realized that, sometimes judging a person by their looks is right - based on their appearance you can sometimes learn hints to who they are. From something as obvious as wearing a cross or sagged pants to something a bit more subtle like clean shoes and fitting jeans. That doesn't mean you're always right - I certainly don't dress like a guy who actively listens to death metal. So like words, appearances too can be deceiving.

Working my 5$ hour 40 hours a week job and supporting my family feels like a better hardship to deal with than the shrieking sociopolitical insanity of the "civilized" world.
Also I am fucking terrified of America and Europe. I don't want to be shot for my looks or worse, have my place burned down. Ok Europe less so since it's the other way around there with immigrants starting shit.

Few bad apples spoil the bunch, a person is smart but people are stupid yadda yadda.
To be quite honest with you, dear friend, if you come to the left-wing part of Europe (Sweden, Finland, Norway), you'd probably be looked down with suspicion by some people, but just learn the laws of the land, the culture and the way people act so you can blend in and trust me fella, no one will fucking mind.
Plus you'll get free money and you can eventually work, you got the leftist faggots on your side so you don't have to worry about racism because you can literally just tweet about it and break all hell loose.

If you are willing to work, pay taxes, don't do no bad shit like steal or murder, come on down. I don't give a fuck. I'd rather have you than my faggot of a neighbor who doesn't study, probably doesn't shower very often, keeps loud music on til 3am on workdays etc etc.

>Spend hours writing 10 page response about how women in vidya aren't objectified that the SJWs aren't going to read anyway

Proper way to respond:

How? I'm almost curious to read this article to see if there is any justification for that being in a review about a Mario and Sonic game. Can someone who has read the article explain how? I'm not clicking on polygon.
