why is it so hard for people online to try to appeal to muslims without dramatically menacing them with deportation and death
That's literally what the stakes are. It's not "menacing" just to mention the reality of what's going to happen if Trump wins.

No, it sends the message that Democrats need to run a real progressive.
There were real progressives on the ballot in 2016 and 2020 and the Democratic voters did not want them

Still not seeing how ResetEra just straight up banning anyone who said remotely positive things about the game is better to you. This is a damn video game discussion board, and it was one of the highest selling games of the year.

Thinking that ResetEra handled it better is a shit take tbh
I mean banning all the transphobic users seems like a pretty objective improvement tbh

Why is it that the literal only times I ever hear about Resetera are when people are complaining about Resetera?
Because most people here use it as their main gaming forum and only post here when they're suspended from Resetera. That is clearly the only logical explanation as to why CE obsesses over Resetera while Resetera doesn't talked about CE at all

The kind of people who think like that have a very skewed definition of average looks. In real life most people dont look like supermodels and yet no one considers them ugly.

Id say video games and their culture are to blame for this, but mens health and womens fashion magazines were doing it for decades before that.
Yeah I suppose.
My main thing is... ideally, all types of women would be allowed to be portrayed media. From ones that look like models to ones that this board would freak out about and call ugly. Model-like female characters have clearly never gone away, it's just that they're not the only women in video games anymore. And gamers get mad whenever a women shows up that doesn't fit into their extremely narrow definition of what a woman is allowed to look like

There were people who were so insistent that Tifa would have a flat chest in the remake that they gas lit themselves into believing it happened before any images of reboot Tifa appeared. It doesn't matter what her chest was actually like, they already believed she was going go be flat and would never change their minds.

I am well aware of the "both sides" trope but this is actually a both sides situation. Blatant antisemitism and a lack of strong opposition to antisemitism since Oct 7th.
Yeah everyone hates our guts. Most other Jewish people I've talked to feel super isolated these days. A lot of liberals Jews who have had to break off friendships because their lefty friends just turned rabidly anti-semitic. Lucky for me the only people in my life who've started spouting shit were people that already annoyed me beforehand.
