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

The people talking about how we're close to the Handmaid's Tale happening today fail to realize that if it did happen, they wouldn't be talking about how it compares to the book. They would be the ones doing everything in their power to escape the regime as it's power grow because actually being persecuted is thousands of times worse than their current, safe, comfortable lifestyles.
It's the very world they're in that allows them to just haphazardly block out people for opinions freely; they would most definitely pining for this oh so "horrible" era of our country if such a regime came to be.
LOL no they wouldn't.

They'd be the women in that story who go along with it because they get to have power over the lowlier women. They'd be arguing that it's the way things should be done.

You're assuming they'd be the one's in power in the first place, which is highly unlikely unless they scored being the wife of one of the new leader's of said regime (which is doubtful considering their personalities). Unless they're the wives of the head's of government like in the novel, they're nothing but property of the state meant to pump out babies and do domestic work.

This is like the thought process of communists in the western world thinking they'd be in the upper echelons of the Party after the revolution and not dead in a ditch or in a gulag.

Eh, fair enough. They'd just want to be the women on top, they wouldn't actually get to be.

I wonder what ReeeeesetERA's take on the Shah would be.

Those are some qt Iranian girls.
Excuse it away if they absolutely had to, but avoid talking about it at all if possible because no matter what horrific atrocities a country legally commits against women (or everyone in general really), if it's an Islamic country they automatically get a free pass. I expect anyone who brings that shit up would instantly get slapped with a ban (duration pending) and the topic locked ASAP.

Resetera has had several threads on Iran... err.. what you`d expect.

So, to follow their own logic, America wouldn't change very much if we started publicly stoning fags and banned any public expression of homosexuality; and therefore it's not a big deal?
Maybe just make it mandatory for homosexuals to live in San Francisco. That way everyone is happy. Gays don’t have to deal with evil homophobes and I can drive to work without having to take a detour when the rainbow dildo party is in town. Everyone wins.

Or just create the New Sanfrancisco theme park.

 
That Democratic Primary thread on ResetERA is really quite something and is probably like a trailer for what's to come. It's still a year away from Iowa and the "PoliERA powerbrokers" have already pretty much settled on Kamala Harris.

Anyone else is a racist, sexist, centrist, berniebro, Russian bot, and/or Communist. This includes Democratic Senators like Sherrod Brown who has been apparently dogwhistling left alt-right and right with his "working class" garbage. They were savaging Kirsten Gillibrand because it took her TWO HOURS to tweet out that the Virginia Governor should resign after saying his picture was terrible. "Get the fuck out of here with that." "Not a great moment for her." Bernie Sanders also proved he's "not a leader" by not tweeting that until today! TODAY! They're implying that Elizabeth Warren's mistakes may be because she's old and getting senile. (Like Bernie is, she might also be racist like he is. We'll have to see.) Cory Booker hates minorities and democracy because he doesn't want to get rid of the filibuster. (Yet nobody cares that he's a fucking vegan.)

And it's not just the candidates! The Young Turks are also "not really leftist" but instead "a media corporation" with an "agenda to sell." Trump is really hoping to run against Harris, not because he thinks he can win, but simply because she's a black woman. Howard Schultz is an extremist libertarian trying to throw the election to Trump. So on and so on. There's some specks of truth here and there but you know how that forum is about literally everything. And this is just from like the most recent two pages.

Can't wait for when this consumes the entire forum. Especially since an admin and like three moderators are part of said "powerbrokers" group plus a bunch of the regular users can practically get people banned by responding to their posts. I assume they won't be able to handle any kind of increasing dissent very well. No idea why, just a feeling I have.
 
from the thread about the Virginia Governor being in a blackface/KKK yearbook photo:
View attachment 655368

"Dad! How could you never tell me you used to be a racist? I don't even know you anymore!"

And here I thought that Liberals were all about "people can change..." considering that whole "reformative justice" thing they claim to believe in...
 
Link to the thread I want to see how they are dealing with the "transphobic" things harris has said in the past.
Even better I can link you to that discussion as someone posted a link to an article about surgery for trans prisoners: https://www.resetera.com/threads/20...t-no-just-tulsis-campaign.91234/post-17474667

Some of them will even defend her on the trunacy thing, ACK-TUALLY NOBODY WENT TO JAIL: https://www.resetera.com/threads/20...t-no-just-tulsis-campaign.91234/post-17479019
Let's talk about the truancy thing.

...

She goes into the statistics that she received the studies that she had the state of California do on the issues at hand.

94% of homicide victims under the age of 25 in CA were high school dropouts.

Of the chronically and habitually truant students, 40% of them were elementary school students.

She proceeds to lay out how she rolled out her plans to San Fransisco administrators and how, "through a series of approaches," they were able to raise attendance rates by 30%.

In San Francisco. If you want to talk about liberal politics, that is literally the geographical epicenter of the modern left.

*"Establishment" means old, white, straight men

Again, let's paint these people's negatives in truth and not in darkness and Russian propaganda. We're all better than that.

P.S. Watch this entire interview. It will give you a strong idea about why each of both of these accomplished women are running. They are changing the face and the shape of politics as we speak while some of us are nitpicking them about their demeanors.
Harris put zero people into jail over truancy. Instead she used the threat as part of a carrot and stick package that provided parents the resources and motivation they needed to get their kids to school.

oh god from that post:
