acetone, do wiadomosci w Sankcje Trumpa nałożone na prokuratora MTK blokują prace MTK
!deleted621 avatar

Ciekawe co by się stało jakby fuhrer Trump nałożył sankcje na UE i np Google musiałoby zaprzestać świadczenia swoich usług.

pfm,

Cały GAFAM by musiał respektować sankcje, czyli ogromna część infrastruktury stałaby się bezużyteczna. Firmy, instytucje, a także rzesze aktywistów - to wszystko zostałoby unieruchomione.

Let me just open this article to see how billion dollar company Ubisoft helped defend and protect their consultant…

Told her to ignore it. Cool

Made a statement about how amazing she is after she turned the tide. Got it.

Gamers are so fucking embarrassing man… These people will harass a voice actor, because they don’t like that the character the person plays killed a beloved character.

It’s like they cannot tell fiction from reality.

Edit:

Anik Talukder, a 28-year-old south Asian man living in the United Kingdom, said he apologized at least 10 times to Schmidt-Hori after accepting her Zoom invitation to discuss his Reddit post about her.

Look… It’s great this person felt remorse, but Jesus Christ these people fold immediately. A bunch of racist paper tigers.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Honestly, that’s most racist people. As soon as they actually meet the target of their vitriol, they’ll usually fold. Just make sure they’re alone and not with their racist buddies.

The same goes for most forms of bigotry.

It’s not just gamers it’s in almost every corner of geek fandom. Remember how a bunch of losers attacked Kelly Marie Tran because they blamed her for the new Star Wars slop.

Learning Yasuke was based on a real person did little to assuage critics. Asian men in particular argued Schmidt-Hori was trying to erase them, even though her role involved researching historical customs and reviewing scripts, not creating characters.

If you are this stupid, maybe you in particular should be erased?

Lyra_Lycan, (edited )

Uneducated comment, removed.

I_Has_A_Hat,

My dude… Not only can Asians be racist, they are some of the most racist people around. Go to China and listen to them talk about other races. They make Alabama seem like a pinnacle of equality and tolerance.

Taiwan #1!!!

Sweetpeaches69,

We had a Thai exchange student while I was in high school.

She used skin whitening cream, and refused to talk to myself and my mother because we were the dark ones in the family.

So yeah, Asians can be insanely racist.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Can confirm, I have Asian friends and they can say some pretty spicy things about their neighboring countries. Of course, if they actually meet someone from that country they’ll call them an exception.

It’s pretty wild IMO.

AmidFuror,

Go ahead and say "white." You mocked the idea they're Asian but then replaced it with an ideology and a nationality. You think they're white, right?

Lyra_Lycan,

No, read it, it said they’re Asian. Right wing Americans can actually include other demographics, you know

NOT_RICK,
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

If you actually read the article, you’d see your assumption is wrong.

Anik Talukder, a 28-year-old south Asian man living in the United Kingdom, said he apologized at least 10 times to Schmidt-Hori after accepting her Zoom invitation to discuss his Reddit post about her.

Lyra_Lycan,

You right

sugar_in_your_tea,

Yeah, that’s just racist in the other direction. You could read the article where it gives some examples and the part where Schmidt-Hori met some of them on video.

SkunkWorkz,

I’m Asian-European and in my experience there are many Asians who are right wing racist shit heads. Not to mention all the self hating Asian women who hate every Asian man on the planet including their own family members.

Lyra_Lycan,

Thank you. I didn’t read that the Asian in the subject was not American but British, but some folk seem to not realise that Asians can be both right-wing and a national of a non-Asian country.

OmegaMan,

The article disagrees

Lyra_Lycan,

Thank you

I don’t understand people like that. If you don’t like some piece of entertainment, don’t consume it, leave a bad review, and move on

If you didn't consume it, why leave a review let alone a bad one?

I meant that as an “or”. Don’t consume or give feedback if you do

Good franchise fanbase strikes again

MudMan,

Honestly, I seriously doubt that the harassment is from the AC fanbase, and as a side sucky thing in an ocean of suck, it also sucks for Ubisoft that their game is getting associated with the backlash. It really seems like these are just political actors and opportunists exploiting the nazi child outrage farms for views, more than anything else.

I'd be shocked if most of the outrage, even the one whitewashed as "Asian men erasure" was genuine at all. Especially in the game series that opened with "hey the Crusades were bad, maybe" and spiraled out into assassinating the pope and playing as multiple black people murdering slavers.

ObstreperousCanadian,
@ObstreperousCanadian@lemmy.ca avatar

Exactly. They’re outrage tourists.

mnemonicmonkeys,

At this point I wouldn’t call the Assassin’s Creed franchise “good”. “Painfully mediocre” is closer to what I’d call it, but that’s just Ubisoft games in general nowadays

LainTrain,

It’s a meme ya dunce

Abnorc, do games w Harassed by Assassin’s Creed gamers, a professor fought back with kindness

It’s crazy that racists just have an axe to grind with people who are even vaguely accepting. If a game is too “woke” just shut up and let us have our fun. No one is making you play it. Kudos for the professor’s self-confidence. I hope she is safe from crazy people on the web.

dan1101,

Exactly. And empathy is not a weakness, it’s a strength. Blindly hating things is weakness and ignorance.

Kennystillalive, do games w Harassed by Assassin’s Creed gamers, a professor fought back with kindness

I wish the biggest problem in my life was how good a video game is. If you don’t like the game, leave a bad review, warn others in your circle… but don’t go harassing people that worked on it.

@arakhis_@feddit.org avatar

especially a series thats been like that for several titles lol. makes no sense

MurrayL,

A big part of the problem is that social media platforms encourage and amplify hateful content.

People are literally profiting from their hate and harassment of game developers (and have the hubris to complain about ‘woke grifters’) but platforms like YouTube just throw up their hands and pretend it’s nothing to do with them.

MudMan,

The fashy outrage engine where any trailer with some amount of melanin triggers endless "WOKE FAIL" videos is in full force.

The process is watch trailer>check for nonwhite>RAGE video>if game bombs: GLOAT video> if game is a hit: quietly STFU and move on to the next target.

I have to assume the algorithmic boosting of this garbage is the result of someone at Google arguing that groceries haul videos and reaction videos were the bottom of the barrel and someone grab-my-beering that shit.

I mean, these idiots spent months doing "Expedition 33 is WOKE" outrage videos. That was, in fact, the top couple of threads on the Steam community forum for the game on launch day. I checked. Besides one thread hilariously trying to do "It's a hit because it's not WOKE" on the top page, the word "woke" is no longer in the first ten pages of discussions.

It's such an obvious grift and it's so pointless to even call it out. Everybody knows it's bullshit. The creators know it, the fascistoid children following them know it, the game makers know it, the politicians taking advantage to indoctrinate young men know it. And yet here we are.

If you lack any self-worth and identity on your own, you will derive it from hating others.

NegativeLookBehind, do news w Russia and the US agree to work toward improving ties and ending the Ukraine war in landmark talks
@NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world avatar

So, the US and Russia have excluded Ukraine from the talks where they decide how to divvy up Ukraine.

Got it.

@Petros@szmer.info avatar

You did not. They excluded essentially everyone else and announced a separatist peace and cooperation treaty, much along the lines of Molotov-Ribbentrop pact.

I didn’t realize the moon was ever anything but just a dead rock floating there

Beacon, (edited )

The leading hypothesis is that the moon was formed when a massive asteroid smashed into the earth and blasted a huge chunk of the earth into space, and that became the moon. If true then the moon's birth and younger existence was wildly cataclysmic

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_the_Moon

Asteroid, or proto-planet?

Beacon,

Wiki refers to it as a "mars-sized body"

Yes it’s a joke, however if a mars candybar hits earth at 99.999999% of the speed of light, I’d imagine the impact would be anything but a blip
