NeoGAF & ResetERA - The Hilarious N̶e̶v̶e̶r̶e̶n̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ Splintering "Gaming" Forum Circus

So when I looked at ResetEra, I saw this goldmine from none other than Kotaku.


In there, they talk about how "Trans" people in GTA V are being oppressed. However, what they don't realize is that GTA is known for making fun of everything, especially on social commentary. GTA series is constantly political and you'd be surprised how much things Rockstar actually made fun of back in the day.

Furthermore, it's more likely that those "trans" people as seen below, is likely a man in a drag and nothing else. View attachment 2592009

So of course, it would be stupid to erase that considering that they would be pandering to the base. However, this is ResetEra we're talking about.

Fun fact: This topic was actually covered like couple of months ago by Combat Wombat, in response to SWEGTA's video on why GTA V is "Transphobic."


Of course, someone had to get banned for going against their narrative.

The good thing about Rockstar is they literally don't give a fuck.
 
Yeah. Ironically, aw the GTA games have gotten angrier and more spiteful with their Deep Commentary, they've lost their teeth in the process. Rather than anything incisive it's just rants about how Amrrica is bad and celebrities can be vapid did you know?
 
I hope not, but we'll see if you are right. "Deep commentary" in GTA is awful, I guess that might be the future of the series if they do cave.
I WILL be right; probably the reason why one of Houser bros was thrown the fuck out off R*, and other sidelined was that they was obstacle on the way to "wokening" of GTA

also, I really advise you to watch how will PS2 trilogy remaster will turn out
 
Does that place even have a large membership? It seems like the bans outweigh the registrations.
The legitimacy of it entirely comes from the 2000`s era Gaming Media Clique that I think half of them (The EX-Ziff Davis Folks) don`t even realize what it has evolved to.
Then your Patrick Klepek and Jason Schreier that still cite it in mainstream press as being some gospel truth of the opinion of most gamers.

I'm especially interested in seeing what becomes of Kotaku over the next year, if it somehow doesn't die. It was already helmed by loony lefties before but now Patricia Hernandez, their trooniest troon, is in charge. It will probably be entirely race-baiting and transplaining before long.

And the article that spurred that Resetera discussion was written by Anita Sarkeesian's pet tranny Carolyn Petit. I am rather tempted to go to Kotaku and see if he's written any articles that AREN'T about trans issues.
 
Carolyn Petit's Twitter account is all consoom, trans and then pseudointellectual gibberish. I'm not quite sure where Carolyn got any experience to be a "managing editor" of anything not even Kotaku. 45 years old and never been more than a freelancer or reviewer? But whatever, that's games journalism I guess.

Yes... I can see why.

If a fictional character can't be "empowered", how can it be "oppressed"?
Also I love how we're regressing from the common sense standpoint of "video games don't cause violence" to pointing out a couple of specific instances of real criminals being inspired by fiction, as if it's fiction's fault.
 
I know it's difficult to believe, but I'm pretty sure Patricia Hernandez is actually NOT trans. She looks the part, sure enough, but has actually been a woman from birth.
Are you sure? I've never actually seen a picture of Patricia, but thought at one point I had heard she claimed to be trans. But you might be right... I can't find evidence of her being trans, and if she was, I'm sure she wouldn't shut up about it.

Even restarea hates Kotaku now, it's doomed

If you could help me out here (I'm new to this thread), has Resetera had problems with Kotaku (or Polygon, or any other gaming journals) in the past?
All things considered though, It's always funny to watch different groups of progressives tear each other apart.

Not 100% sure, in the sense that I don't have access to her medical records and people lie (just look at Brianna Wu), but she has always presented herself as a cis woman. She's also widely hated in some corners of the internet, so if she were a trans person trying to pass as biologically female, it's safe to say her lie would have been exposed by now (once again, Brianna Wu).

Kotaku DOES have lots of weird trans people in their roster, though; weirdly enough, NONE of them have ever been as scandalous as Patricia - not in public, at least.
