I love how LI Joe’s white noise music fits so perfectly with the whole conversation.
I don’t think Aris knows what a racist is; racists don’t have friends off all different colors that they love.
What Aris is trying to say is that there is a big difference from being legitimately racist and making racist jokes every once in a while. Jared is a complete moron who doesn’t understand anything. if you get offended by someone using the word rape and bitch get the fuck over yourself. He is being a stuck up prick. There is nothing wrong with calling a video game character a bitch or saying they should be raped, they aren’t real.
Apparently to Aris, sexual harassment is just as important to the FGC as a basketball is to the NBA. And we have people saying that he’s their hero. He’s a moron.
Miranda will probably go untouched again. The only time weak links are going to get touched from here on out are during pandora elims.
Steve will be the next one to go sadly. He actually seems to have a good grasp on the game.
Really, with all the rape Phoenix did to MvC3 players over the past year she deserves whatever rape comes to her.
To be fair, I have a bunch of Korean friends, but also tend to look down on a Korean when I I first meet him/her…courtesy of the extreme racism displayed by Korean international students during my undergrad years. That is, you can be mildly prejudiced against a certain race and still have plenty of friends from that race. So I agree with Aris there, although it’s a clumsy analogy.
However, the bottom line is that Jared is a fucking whiny, annoying, politically correct sissy boy with his panties in such a twist they disappear inside of his gaping, smelly vagina. Aris is right; if you change the fighting game community, you don’t necessarily “blow it up”. While you might attract a certain demographic you wouldn’t have before, you also alienate the original members.
Thus, you’re not necessarily gaining more fans on top of your old ones; you’re killing the old ones while adding new ones. So you’re changing your fanbase altogether.
Ultimately, I think that’s a bad idea; Western culture and the US in particular is extremely constrained and dominated by political correctness at every turn. That’s why people, especially men, love talking shit on the Internet; it’s the one place they can embrace their manhood, make sexist and racial jokes, and just be their goddamn selves.
Same thing with the FGC; it allows a certain type of gamer, especially guys, to relax, act naturally, and not have to second-guess whether every other word might be “offensive” to someone.
Hold your horses, bucko!
We have scholars like Brotastic that think it is awesome to throw around words like “bitch” and “rape”. Clearly you are a fool; people like Brotastic have the right of it.
We need to be as offensive as possible, we need to throw homophobic slurs around and be misogynistic cretins. If we concede and start acting in a more respectful manner then America loses and the terrorists win.
Aris is a very insensitive person, and people can feel however they want to about it; I’m certainly not going to judge him or get into an argument about morality or anything like that. If someone wants to make racist jokes and not care about who they are offending or hurting, I’m not their keeper, you know; I’m just happy that I don’t live my life that way, or that I don’t spend time with people who live their life that way.
she also destroyed an entire star system killing millions
I don’t care either way, but seriously, fuck Phoenix.
Manhood is not inherently sexist or racist; those are choices that you are making.
Guys I agree, we should act like limp dicked bitches and take Aris’ jokes seriously.
I can tell that you are a classy individual; I like that about you.
I’ll take out my camera phone and zoom in on a girl’s ass tomorrow. When she and other people get offended by it, I’ll tell her that I was just joking and that they should all quit being soft.
Furthermore, we should derail threads to proclaim how much of a dumb ass we are.
We need to drive that point across to an audience that for the most part doesn’t give a fuck. To maximize retardedness.
Man am I an idiot. I was like “why hasn’t the matches started yet???” and then i realize i was on team tekken stream -__-"
Guys, stop being idiots. Everybody gets clowned and ripped on. The idea that we need to stop clowning and ripping on women/people of a particular sexual preference because of that is segregation.
Team White People?
KFC Fanatiq?
Remember the jokes about Justin Wong crashing the car in the game show?
Valle is mexican?
We are all equally in danger of getting made fun of. I’m not condoning it, I’m saying stop trying to say we are only dicks to particular people.
She was just showing off her strength as an independent woman.
