that's not even what gta is about
I'm not a pedophile because it's a drawing.
A drawing of what?
The ideal woman of legal age who is only acting like they're younger and has a fake second grade student id.
>who is only acting like they're younger
to be fair, e-girls act more like moronic adults than children in 90% of cases
Hentai in general is written closer to ERP than anything real, which should be completely expected since it's basically solo ERP.
a drawing of anon being brutally murdered
anime
a purple haired ninja with big breasts who was designed to look like a sexually mature woman but the developers made her 16 for some weird reason and you can play through the game without ever knowing her age
A 69 year old hag that somehow looks much younger than her real age
That's how headcanon works!
someone's imagination
>siding with a disgraced israeli boomer lawyer
This isn't the gotcha you think it is.
So you're not a homosexual if you fap to bura?
Not reading all that but the tl;dr his points made so little sense that his pursuit got him disbarred.
I think the gay porn he submitted with his court documents that one time played a pretty big role in that, too.
Wasn't gay porn it was just nonsense designed to waste court time
Eat this thompson, dont frick with gamers you old white american man
The ending of your statement was too clunky. Just say CiS male next time.
Reminder this Lara, in all of her guro death glory, is apparently more empowered and less objectified than classic Lara.
I counter with as much evidence as he ever had : Nah.
same can be said about e-girl pedos
your words are as empty as your soul
dicky ill needs a savior such as (You)
>Yeah man I get it's not real and all but
>I still personally think the fact that you spend your day jerking off to underage cartoon girls in the most degenerate sexual situations you can imagine while being sexually aroused and then trying to pass it off as normal human behavior says a lot about you as a person.
I have had this fetish for over half of my life and I still have sub-zero interest in actual 3D children
Stop projecting and start providing evidence
(warning: all the actual studies on this topic also show that 2d e-girl doesn't lead to 3d pedophilia)
>stop projecting
I like this moronic cope. Dude, not being into real-life children doesn't make you any less repulsive to normal people nor makes them want to associate with you. Some guy jerking off to scat and vomit porn 24/7 and going "oh no no it's okay it's just drawn vomit and shit so I'm not actually brain-damaged" isn't going to make them any less disgusted nor will quell their feelings about him nor make him seem normal.
you cannot distinguish reality from fantasy, so no one else can, got it
please have a nice day moron
It's like you guys just can't understand. Must be the brain-damage. It doesn't matter if it's drawn or not, Fiction or not. The very fact that the concepts themselves arouse you in any way makes you objectively fricked in the head.
Yeah, and the common fantasy on this site of murdering israelites and minorities is alsl kinda fricked, but you'd be first in line crying foul if you were arrested for the crime of thinking it. What you're suggesting is that, after all, advocating for making sure nobody even thinks of the bad things, because oh no it's a bad thing. Yeah it's fricking weird and there's a bunch of fetish stuff I'd never even go near, but it's not fricking real. There is no crime, there is no victim, there is no flesh and blood creature involved in anything. Do fricking ANYTHING about the literal island of very real pedophiles, and then you can go after some rando on twitter drawing e-girls.
Nobody with an ounce of self-awareness announces their fetishes to the world, precisely because they're usually seen as outside the normal and therefore undesirable. At the same time, it's rather hard for me to give a shit if your fetish is completely confined to fricking drawings or drawings fricking.
no shit moron
the OP is literally a paraphrasing of an anti-e-girl meme
>waste his time with shut in nerds instead of his actual pedos friends
I wonder why....
Remember when this was the worst we had to worry about?
video games actually help prevent violence, also violence has existed since the dawn of time it's human nature video games didn't cause that and no video game has told people to go shoot up a school ever.
the only ones causing mass violence it's power mad governments like the one he worked for.
people don't seem to realize that we live in the most peaceful era in all of human history
we haven't even had a large scale war in decades
yes and this is the main reason why the world is so fricking shit
yep, sure you get some riots here or there but it doesn't even hold a candle to the world wars and we aren't going to get a world war 3 unless somebody shoots a nuke and that aint happening for the simple fact that the second someone does they'd get their teeth kicked in.
Why would a wizard break into my house just to drink my shitty cheap beer and eat my cheap ass lays? Wouldn't a wizard be a true connoisseur of both fine ales and snacks? Not fricking Miller Lite at least.
he just wants to display his dominance.
Violent crime has plummeted since games started get hyper violent.
I don't think that really has anything to do with video games.
I think it does.
Instead of going out on the street looking for trouble, starting fights or stealing cars for a joy ride. Would be trouble makers are just trolling around in video games.
There are drawbacks to staying inside playing video games all day. But it does provide an outlet for pent up aggression. Maybe too we’ll.
You ever watch movies, sir?
Ever read the Bible?
Only the part about daughters raping their father
>Yeah man I get it's not real and all but-
Stopped reading there because everything following the word "but" is a cope.
>industry has been repeating "violent videogames" censorship talking points in regards to male-oriented sex appeal in games for the past ten years
>those old censors are slowly coming back to life, empowered by the industry's pro-censorship mentality
>leftists will now expect people to not roll their eyes when they try to present themselves as the brave defenders of artistic liberty against those evil conservatives or question them about what they're going to do about the censors in their own ranks
>won't be able to do anything but stutter and look like idiots, because they're sure not going to admit that they were wrong
You either push back against authoritarianism on all fronts or you suffer under it. It's a problem that authoritarians always experience but never seem to learn from.
>Being such a contrarian you wrap around to supporting this boomer shit from a decade+ ago
Thank god today nobody takes seriously the "Pokemon/Harry Potter are devil works" shit anymore. Not even the video games causing violence thing is taken seriously even on Fox by boomers anymore
They actually blamed video games and weed for the Uvalde and Buffalo shootings
true, but nobody takes that shit seriously, not even boomers believe that tripe.
Yeah and less people take it seriously by the day as more and more people grew up from any political viewpoint playing vidya. These people aren't growing up and going to suddenly shift their opinion thinking Fortnite is the cause of every bad thing lol
it makes me laugh when I hear those boomer fricks call it "cyber violence" like what year do you think this is exactly? literally nobody refers to it like that besides those fossils who think the satanic panic of dungeons and dragons is still relevant.
old man yells at cloud has never been more relevant of a joke.
These people just go the way of the era of talking heads calling rock music satanic. Wholly irrelevant then the boomers themselves claim it as their own
>words words words
The left can't meme.
Why are rightoids illiterate?
it's like porn and snack food and pills
everyone knows it's doing something deeply evil but mostly only to very weak people that would get fricked up by something else if it wasn't this
>GUYS LOOK HOW CONSERVATIVE I AM, GUYS LOOK
People that try to fit in on an anonymous site are a special kind of moron.
>We have become so bored as a culture that we're not defending censorship "ironically"
we're now*
Censorship is only good when it happens to lefties
This but completely unironically. There's absolutely nothing but positives from subhuman mentally-ill people being censored and anyone who says otherwise most likely agree with said subhuman mentally-ill people. It's why I cheer on whenever the Chinese censor whatever leftist garbage and hope many more do the same.
>right wing b***h with no integrity
Shocking!
No, frick off, we're in a war right now. This is not the time to play nice and buddy-buddy with israelites. If censorship is what is needed to return to normalcy, so be it.
>war
That’s just so disrespectful to the veterans! Think of the veterans!
Rightoids are such pussies holy shit lmao
What do I gain from leftists being able to speak their thoughts and opinions? Is there any positives? Tell me right now. apparently what they say has value and deserves to be listened to, as you imply. Hopefully you can answer this simple question without any ad hominem insults.
I know you're baiting for (you)s, but the weapons you use to censor your enemies will be turned on your values inevitably.
>but the weapons you use to censor your enemies will be turned on your values inevitably
Woah. Such intelligent insight no-ones ever though of before. Anyway, doesn't change anything. Them being able to do so doesn't change that they deserve and need to be censored.
>Literally doesn't even engage with it
Alternate viewpoints are always necessary for the purpose of being able to tell if you're going too far in one direction. No one ideology is perfect from the get go. Obviously this point is moot if you genuinely believe that leftists are just categorically wrong on everything and always have been, but at that point I doubt you care much about an actual argument over this anyway.
Ganker was pro-censorship before the 2016 election and the /misc/gays invasion.
Sadly the real Ganker Ganker culture was kept only on reddit. See gamingcirclejerk
Can you confirm that this is bait? I'm autistic.
b8
Turns out we need a war every now and then to mellow things out.
this ukranian war isn't helping mellow shit out at all
That's because there is no war in Ukraine, it's just a israeli smokescreen.
>blaming Trumps work on israelites again
Here we go again
Literally everything bad in the world could abd should be traced back to israelites.
this old ass homie grew up playing cowboys and indians with all the other boomers which is the same shit but with a healthy dose of racism on top
>this is what rightoids actually believe
Yeah this is why leftoids are the only one making games.
Brutal murder of innocents IS human nature. Just look at the entirety of history. But he can pretend humans are inherently docile stuffed animals of some sort all he wants
I see what you're doing here op
>Jack Thompson insists violent video games make you violent
>everyone in the gaming industry laughs at him, he gets disbarred and goes away
>Anita Sarkeesian claims games are sexist and make you sexist
>game journalist interviews, consultant on AAA games, dozens of tributes in indie games, a unending torrent of positive articles, addresses the UN, becomes rich off patreon, works with Silverstring Media and DARPA
It's almost like being a professional victim is profitable.
Just whine and cry over silly shit like internet death threats
Not true, rightoids constantly play the victim, including in this thread, yet they’re still broke.
They both unironically right.
how?
oh and
>gets hired by both google for "online harassment initiative" and twitter for "trust and safety"
Cash in, cash out. She played the game at the right time.
Why did Anita think that a character being sexy in a video game made them a sex object? It seems like she hated all depections of sexualization, no matter the context. But anyways, both people like Anita and Jack need to frick off. And people like to argue that "Anita wasnt like Jack because all she did was critique video games", knowing damn well that she would ban all depections of sexy women in games if she had the power to.
I'm pretty sure the issue with Anita wasn't her "analyzing" gaming. If it was just that there'd be no issues.
The issue WAS with her analyizing gaming, since her criticisms were very sex-negative and almost down right puritianical. She didnt care how powerful a female character was, if she was sexy, they are a sex object to her and nothing less. "Just because she was "powerful" in the narrative doesn't make her any less sexualized.
the games can have had a positive impact on your life but Lara Croft was designed specifically to be a sexualized object in order to appeal to make players. She is the definition of male gaze." Her quotes about lara croft from tomb raider. In her own words, it doesnt matter how powerful lara croft was, she appealed to heterosexual men, so she is just a sex object.
>The issue WAS with her analyizing gaming
No, lots of people analyze gaming media. The issue was that her analysis is dumb.
It goes deeper than sexualization with Anita. She thinks any depiction of a woman as having emotions she deemed "masculine" is sexist. Also women can't be violent at all or they're just men in dresses
she never finished her analysis
If Anita could she would ban all depections of attractive women in games. Also, her world view was extremely sex negative and would call characters like Bayonetta "fighting frick toys", despite the fact her sexuality worked well with her character and never actively degraded her. She was very sex negative and though that sexiness was inherently a bad thing, which is why she was hated. She is also against real women doing bawd walks btw
>She is also against real women doing bawd walks btw
You'd think at least one of them would tell Anita to mind her own damn business.
nobody considers games to be "art" except for the strawman in the image
also, that image is taken straight from reddit but that's besides the point
>We are at a point where Ganker is so contrarian that they will lift a pro-censorship image on fricking reddit of all places
Jesus
Anita literally took a game (hitman) that concretely punishes you for killing non-targets (including women) and complained that you could kill women mercilessly in it and weren't punished or some shit
Seeing depictions of sex and violence in media desensitizes you and I'm tired of pretending that it doesn't.
>boomers are moronic
WOOOOW
check this
>If 2 people agree on anything for any reason they must be in the same cabal of people that made me a fat moronic loser.
ResetEra would cry if you acted like a homosexual.
I'd simply knock your teeth onto the floor.
>I'd simply knock your teeth onto the floor.
said the overweight Ganker dweeb
>Now thinks everyone on Ganker has his physique
I'm pretty sure if you're on Ganker you're not exactly the strongest guy out there. Why don't you post your own face if you're so tough?
>you're not exactly the strongest guy out there.
Stronger than you would be enough.
I'm pretty confident in my ground work, you'd get folded.
Post your gains bro. Let's see em
Just give me an address instead, pussy.
I think you're scared or baiting
You're literally trying to get me banned for selfies since you're afraid of me, moron.
Link to /soc/ then dumbfrick, let's see your gains.
Just give me an address bro, doesn't have to be yours, but you will be there.
>He wont do it
Anon, I think you're scared
Just some numbers and a name.
You don't need your Discord buddies to mass reply me to give an address right? Just post it.
Anon I think you might be a big ol' chicken
You won't even give me the address of the Pizza Hut you work at for a throwdown buddy.
bowk bowk bowk bowk
>Discord buddies
Projection? Why can't you take a picture of yourself you pussy?
Porn absolutely desensitizes you to actual sexual encounters
And? Listening to loud music makes you desensitized to loud noises.
...it makes you deaf? Your analogy sucks.
Hold on, wait, do you think that doesn't happen or something? Because it does.
Only people who don't have actual sexual encounters think this.
If anything hearing this from an actual chick is what opened my eyes to it
>Complains everyone she's dating watches too much porn and makes no attempt to hide it when on a first date.
Although defensive masturbation addicts assume that since some idiot is rambling about porn that means he got laid (He didn't)
And?
>Ganker is unironically defending and agreeing with Anita Sarkeesian now
the absolute state of the rightoids
imagine losing the culture war this hard
They truly have no integrity. They don’t really understand what’s going on a lot of the time.
Video games cause violence? Good, make video games more accessible.
oh, really? I just like stealing cars and narrowly avoiding things like Indiana Jones
Just reverse the argument back on him like this
Yeah man I get it's metaphorical and all but I still personally think that the fact that you routinely read and draw your life perspective and theology from a book that endlessly discusses genocide, war, and a wrathful god while singing about it happily and trying to pas it off as normal religious behavior says a lot about you as a person
There, the boomer is now shidding and pissing in fury.
That book is a beacon of morality you fricking idiot. All violence it depicts is justified, moral violence.
There is no moral scenario where it is justified to rip the children out of women's womb and smash the fetuses against stones. This is a blatant contradiction against the Christian belief in the innocence of children and right to life.
>There is no moral scenario where it is justified to rip the children out of women's womb and smash the fetuses against stones.
Absolutely there is. If a child is a degenerate mutt it is absolutely permissible to execute them. Spartans did it all the time.
For whatever reason people who say this always happen to be pureblooded aryans with no genetic corruption whatsoever. Funny how that works.
I'm not pure aryan, but I'm not going to delude myself. Society would be better off without our births. Dysgenics is a real thing.
You go ahead and die then for your race's purity, I prefer to live.
>I prefer to live
Why though? You don't do anything nor contribute to anything that matters and will be remembered after you're gone. Though that goes for 90% of people.
>Why though?
Because I get to experience things, good and bad. I don't care about being remembered, I care about learning, having fun, loving, maybe even having a family. I wouldn't want to trade that for the nothingness of death, and especially not for nebulous shit like genetic purity. If my existence already doesn't matter, why is it an issue for me to be around?
Nobody will. In 200 years we will seem like silly 1800s powdered wig wearing motherfrickers seem to us and nobody will be able to read the dialect of our correspondense or remember, much less give a shit, about our "contributions".
Nothing that happened to Job was justified or deserved in any way.
>violence
>justified
Porn should be banned. Alcohol and cigarettes should only be sold to people who are the proper sort to handle it. Free speech should be heavily curtailed. The state should regulate morality, there exist objective "goods" in society and they should be enforced under threat of removal of freedom.
Dude what about war games?
He was right in many ways, the people who criticized became and wanted to sanitize videogames anyway.
Childhood is hating Jack Thompson. Adulthood is realizing he was just trying to save us from ourselves.
If he's right then the moronic argument extra credits made is right too. Well?
Was it something like "if you have fun playing as a nazi then you start sympathizing with them!!!"? If so then lol lmao
it was "If you are presented nazis as just another faction, you might not recoil in horror when you see nazi ideology, then you would read the ideology and agree with it"
The last part implying that the nazi talking points are literally irresistable.
not only that but thinking literally anyone else gave a shit about playing the bad guy in multiplayer
Nazi talking points are like a kid eating ice cream for every dinner
>Has been on a two decade long crusade against content in video games.
>Video games are still incredibly violent.
Imagine failing for 20 years and calling that normal human behavior.
Reminder
seethe more, rightoid
ok
but hes not wrong
Seethe more leftist. You are what you claim to hate, and you're even more unkempt and embarrassing than a Bible thumping hick.
I think the difference is more of a generational difference than gender/left-right. Nobody of any gender or ideology can tolerate a boomer and his picket fence worldview exerting influence over them.
I remember him casually bringing up and shrugging off the death threats he had sent to him, while Anita and friends made it their whole thing.
What does it say about you?
>back then
>big enemy of vidya was jack thompson or politicians like joe lieberman
>completely ineffectual and everyone rallied to shit on them
>now
>big enemy of vidya is fricking game journalism outfits, huge publishers/dev studios, and people within the community telling you that what you like is evil and it needs to be changed and you need to get nickel and dimed for everything and frick you for liking video games
>they regularly succeed
I want to go back so bad.
He is right, and even Rockstar agrees. Otherwise, why did they remove unflattering depictions of trannies?
Yes, but what about military simulators? You also kill a lot of people in different possible ways.
So rape and genocide simulators are okay to optimistically partake in a la FPS drek because it's all virtually meaningless and victimless and has no measurable impact on behavior and mental health?
If you believe games are an artform, then yes because it's not your place or anyone's to restrict artistic speech. If you believe games are just dumb toys, then no you should let them ban everything they don't like. In america at least the supreme court has already ruled for the former. You can't ban video games for being too violent or sexual.
Reminder that Jack Thompson is a california democrat.
He threatened to sue Janet Reno because she patted him on the back and made a joke about him being gay.
UFC is human wienerfighting.
Voluntary and with a paycheck, though. And the fighters like it and tend to be proud of their profession.
Who are you to look down on the fans and fighters from on high and tell them what to do with their lives, apart from some self-important butthole?
Life is about this stuff. Even Mario kills coopas.
