In Wakshaani's defense, the latest generation of browsers do seem unusually inclined to gobble resources like Pac-Man at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

He still has shit taste in browsers and homepages though.
Stripping all the functionality out of them and replacing it with telemetry isn't the proper reaction though. Might as well use an alternative browser like one of the chromium or firefox forks with a focus on optimization, or Opera or something idk.
 
Today, on "Everything is Problematic", Critcal Role's new opening includes pictures of the characters wearing pith helmets. Naturally, this turns into a circlejerk of handwringing about colonialism and bans handed out for people not being offended enough.

"There is no such thing as an unproblematic image. History is a nightmare we still haven't woken from."

Holy shit, just wake up by killing yourself, bro.

That quote really got me too. How can people be that paranoid and live outside a padded cell?

Though it's very Francis Fukuyama in a way. Neolibs wanting to "kill history" is not new.
 
Actually, my "kill yourself" comment was too hasty and I have to take it back. Apparently the guy was saying that to point out how ridiculous that kind of thinking is (and promptly got banned for it, lol).
I still think his attitude is insane. Even though he's trying to push back against the tide, he's doing it while locked into the mindset that created that tide in the first place.

I wonder if a lot of the boomer and gen-x leftists who were perfectly happy with progressivism when it meant Roe v Wade, gay marriage, and mUh bLaCk PrEsIDeNt are starting to eye the exits now that progressivism means pedophilia, anti-white bigotry, polyamory, and kowtowing to an endless parade of mentally broken manchildren online.

I won't be surprised if that shit existed back in the day.
 
But at least it comes with an sarcastic remark from an woke pleb.
I wonder how much longer it'll be before this whole "no group can be purely evil" thing wraps around to the point where they demand sympathetic depictions for Nazi Germany, and the Confederacy/pre-Civil War southern USA? As it stands the more they insist on establishing "good" portions of evil races, the more they approach the point that they should be compared to political groups, not racial groups.
 
In that second link, I learned that now "Jews = Goblins". Funny, I always thought they equated to Dwarves?
This is how you know they never played any ttrpg and only play WoW. WoW Goblins are Jews, and Dwarves are Scottish. D&D Dwarves are Jewy about their gold (I guess, not really that much compared to Tolkien Dwarves) and Goblins are little fucking gremlins.

And Tolkien took that greed directly from Norse mythology.
 
Yesterday's progressive is today's problematic all over again. Keep up the good work RPG.net, you're going to make ResetEra look tolerant at this rate.
Oh look it's the mod team that sees a race of monsters designed specifically to be evil, nearly mindless brutes and says "these are obvious black people," telling everyone else that they're racists.
 
Orcs were heavily inspired by Mongolians, but I've noted the rpg.net troonlords really, really do not want to talk about Mongolians. Ever. There's absolutely no way to portray the relationship between Europeans and Mongolians except as anything other than innocent white people being subjected to genocide and slavery by nonwhite people for no real reason at all. In 1200 AD, you were entire justified in being deeply suspicious of strange-looking men in strange-looking dress appearing out of nowhere in your land, because they just might have been advance scouts for the Mongolian horde.

The existence of 13th-century Mongolians overthrows the entire woke historical narrative and moral framework. Open borders, diversity, inclusion, all that shit...Mongolians killed 95% of the Persians. What would that have done for them?
