    You're absolutely correct about how there are many on our side that still hold a negative view of the medium. For some, it's their "boomer" mindset that makes them think it's outright childish, for others they look at it like it's a complete waste of time because in their younger years they had poor time management and impulse control so now they think of it like it was some kind of bad addiction. And a few are just outright smug about it because they apparently are perfect beings with no vices whatsoever in their own eyes. Regardless of what they think, the fact is that it's become the largest medium in current times, and as a result, has become _extremely_ important in the culture wars. They wouldn't be trying so hard to subvert it if it wasn't.
    Ignoring gaming is a huge mistake, and I think it highlights a crucial issue that we've had for so long, and continue to have. That issue is being the response to changes that negatively affect us. Whenever something bad happens, the best we do is boycott or avoid. "Stop shopping there." "Home school your kids." "Get out of cities." These are all great for ourselves and our families in the short run. However, while we're running away, our opposition has been doing the opposite by taking up these spaces to fill the void we create and thereby strengthening their influence even further. When we need to gatekeep, we abdicate, and then they occupy and fortify. This is how we keep losing. Some of us get it and we try (such as the guys who made The Great Rebellion), but we're still nowhere close to our opposition. We can't keep running away, as eventually there will be nowhere to run to. So we need to hold down the fort and fight back now more than ever.

      Whenever a boomer conservitard brings up childishness, post this quote from their hero, C.S. Lewis:
      “Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

    It was so strange seeing Obama's win on election night. How there were people dancing in the streets crying and carrying on like lunatics. The black community in particular were acting like the man himself was going to visit each of them personally and hand them a bag of money. Given how the welfare system works here in America I guess he did. Anyway the bit about him being deified is so spot on. Sarkeesian was the same way. A person propped up as a figurehead and forbidden to be criticized.

      As smalls as the black community is, of course they would given they had somewhat of color (half black, which made all the difference) seemingly picked to win was a boon. More white people championed him, however, because he symbolized they had achieved something whereas the black community felt there was a representative. I've also seen more white people getting government assistance, but usually for supposed mental issues/disabilities rather than too many kids to feed, though I've seen near as many still.
      More inner city people I think felt that way about Obama, though I'm not sure about the rest. I know soon as I saw him being promoted by the media, my alarm bells when off rather than think it a good thing. They will never have someone black in the White House without being most definitely a tool and has to have a connection to the blue bloods (and he did, related to Bush and Queen Elizabeth through his mother). Mentored by a black gay communist figure in Harlem, he was a tool to divide and it wasn't black people that led the charge, it was the white knights and white liberal professors that used minorities as their grunts to finally fulfill the long-awaited agenda.
      It goes beyond race, it's a class war where the elite want a return to feudalism and those willing to sell out or brainwashed will turn on family, neighbor and friend under the guise of virtue and correct think.

      They still think that black politicians care about them, but this isn't just in the US. In Africa people were also celebrating, even Muhmar Ghadaffi was pleased with the result, 4 years later Obama would have his country ruined and Ghadaffi brutally murdered. Everything he worked hard to achieve for Lybia was reversed overnight by Obamas regime and why? Because Lybia wanted to form a African union and it's own currency so it wouldn't be so heavily dependent on Europe, the US and the dollar.
      Whites voted for him because they thought he would be the great uniter, instead we because more divided than ever before under him with black people still blaming whites for thier problems despite having Obama in charge and a democratic majority in the government.

      @@BoleDaPole The powers-at-be shifted the blame from government to just "white people" through media and revisionism. You can't blame them when white people fell for it the same or believe preferential lies. Even if seats of power and influence are mainly white individuals, it's mainly about power and prejudice is only fragmented up and parsed from the superiority stance.
      It would be a profound lie to say that minorities were not held back by a system that didn't want competition on all fronts and everyone on equal playing field and prospering. You leave the one in majority in control and bring them down another way, but it's evident the means used against black, Hispanics and lesser means Asians because they use the same on broader scale to former middle-class whites and always the poorer white. Immigrants also, yet it wasn't an issue to have a small number succeed as long as their population numbers were kept in check and not all means of prospering were available.
      Middle class white people are experiencing, ironically, equal treatment of oppression others have and it seems incomprehensible. Being of the same race as the affluent and powerful can only carry one so far, but if not connected, then the peasant status is going to claim them too. It should have been obvious to begin with the game being played, but even black people suddenly forgot hardship, empathy and being oppressed was to oppress in kind when the social engineering seemed to make it okay to take revenge. I use that for specific black people, as some didn't buy into it. Not all white people have gone racist in retaliation because of the clash baiting, but many are as the days go on.
      People are willing to be puppets in certain circumstances and if emotions run high enough, making both sides screeching "reeeeeeh" in the end.
      all Presidents played a role in preparing things to where they are now and going. JFK for all his faults was going to break the super power away from the global system and that had to be stopped. Every President since has been selected and made to walk in step. And yes, that very well can go for Trump, too. He's a wild card even more than Obama, no obvious lineage connections and a businessman, not professional politician. He might serve a symbolic purpose like Biden does a weak America, and we know Trump can be manipulated from his last time in office. How they play his fiddle and not let him go too much on is own key is what remains to be seen.

    Having grown up right wing, and stayed right wing, since the 90s it's been truly interesting to see how society has shifted further and further left.
    I entered puberty during the time of the first MMOs coming into play. Everquest, FFXI, Runescape(2D), and Eve Online. Playing those and listening to leftie adults of the time lament and berate right wing politicians and Bush non-stop with almost no opposition was pretty normal, at least when political discussion came up.
    At the time I had the feeling that all gamers outside of my circles were lefties, but in hindsight, it was more that gamers read the room and stay neutral with regards to this cause they usually don't actually care. Just nod and play along and vote left, cause that's what almost all your friends are doing. Please don't think about how your online European friends are influencing you, too. Wouldn't wanna get shunned by your online society, too, would you? Eventually it just becomes the norm for them and they justify the behavior as being their beliefs all along (if they even care to justify them).
    But back then it hadn't interfered with the games themselves yet, and so there was no reason to shift the other way for most until the left had become a deep seated parasite. Plus, many right wingers had culture growing up that prevented most of us from going into things like game development, localization, translation etc.
    Bringing us to where we are now, with a buncha raggedy ass narc personas in control of the entertainment we most enjoy far more than they should be, making things lamer and gayer than they really are or should be. Had I known this was where things were headed, I would have taken great efforts to learn Japanese and become a translator and localizer myself.

Everything he does on these internet streaming platforms is performative and he carefully calculates which position to take relative to the audience and measuring which position would more than likely "win" in a court of public opinion. His debates are not about actually examining ideas they are about accumulating "wins."

    It's fucking crazy how important GamerGate turned out to be. I mock it for how cringe and compromised it ended up being; to us who have long since moved on and realized how doomed from the beginning that movement was, how naive we were, how the problems we were fighting against were so much bigger than games journalism, it was a cringe-worthy chapter.
    But to the left-- they still can't stop talking about it. They still constantly mention it, fume about it, resent it. It left a bruise and scares them to this day in a way they will never forget, because I think it resembled, for the first time, what an actual ground-up resistance to their hegemony would look like, and they hated it. Hated for once facing a possibility that they weren't the dissidents anymore, weren't the 'good guys', that the youth could ever push the other way, and I think they knew subconsciously in their hearts that this was the beginning of something they'll be fighting against for the rest of their lives. For a great many of us, we at the time didn't. We didn't realize how big the fight would be and how much it would change us, change our entire outlook on politics and cause us to question everything we ever believed.
    I remember being liberal at the time; hell I remember so many who openly talked about being liberal. Many of us voted Obama and had just come out of college or high school full of hope and the philosophy our professors instilled in us. My how different we are now. Time and experience has changed us, that first ugly glimpse behind the curtain that GG afforded us gave way to deeper revelations and self-reflections that ended with us going the complete opposite way. And what began as gamers defending their hobby has given way to movements so much larger and more encompassing to all aspects of life. And yet, this is where it started. So many now shifting toward the right or joining populist movements now are being influenced in that direction by people who were part of GG, used to call themselves socialists, and say "I just want to play games" during that time. It's funny how change can come from the most unlikely of places.
    Will it be enough to make a difference in this age of neoliberalism, corporatism, and social control? I don't know. I think many still are LARPing, still trying to hold onto the idea they can vote or protest or slacktovist their way into a brighter tomorrow, or that this politician or that will be their savior. But it's my hope that the first dominoes that fell then will set into motion a movement that will lead us to some form of salvation in the future, however that takes form. One thing is certain, we've come a long way.

    On the topic of dissident right critique about gaming: I get what you're saying. It can be a tool to get our ideas across. But for the most time it not only wasn't that, a field to be creative and do something for our cause. It was a reason to sit around and do nothing. A consoomer article to passively enjoy while doing nothing productive in the meantime. And you refer to games in earlier (and some of the later ones) yourself like this. As precious escapism. Unironically so.
    And you are right. It's our soma. It used to. An the fact that it stopped being worthwhile is the best that could happen to us.
    The are games of quality, you are absolutely right. Based ones? Rarely for the same reasons there aren't really based movies, only idiots who can't stop coping because they can't accept that their favorite consoomer article use to brainwash them. Even if less so compare to todays slop.
    But Pto, my point is: quality, the content, the story, the "what" isn't the only or even the most important concern here. The medium is the message first and foremost before everything else. The the inherent message, that what games do, is best described as passivity. Less perceived than with watching movies, but still: passivity. That what you described as precious escapism. The same escapism an passivity is part of the reason why we're here today. I'm guilty of this myself of course. And to be fair, you to a much lesser degree because you ARE doing something actively an productive rn. But it is DESPITE of gaming, not because of it. You should be thankful that they ruined our little way of escaping the reality around us.
    The reason we both like gaming isn't that it's based or good for the cause. It inherently hurts it as I stated. It is because we like it. But so does a rat like rat poison.

    • @castle23clash
      @castle23clash หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      I'd argue that the problem is viewing video games/stories as escapism. Mythology and stories from the past were loosely based on or had roots in real events. For starters its been long held that Homer's Iliad was based off a real war that the Mycenaean Greeks were involved in against a city state on Anatolia (either the Hittites or a vassal of them). The NS German movie "Jud Süß" was a retelling about a real "tribe" banker, Oppenheimer, weaseling his way into the Duke of Württemberg's court, and the troubles it had caused for the local Germans. The 'media' of the past acted as a way of preserving the people's (White people's) group by reinforcing morale and their roots, in addition to portraying subversive elements as evil and to be punished. Modern media on the other hand, has become divorced from reality by selling completely fictional accounts as stories. As such, nothing is held sacred any more.

    @sincerehypocrite1402 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    With respect, I disagree with a couple of your takes.
    1. I don't think gamergate was the inflexion point at all. In fact, I would say the inflexion point goes back centuries ago tracing itself ideologically from the French Revolution. I would even argue even a millenium since I would trace it back from the western split of Christianity; ie Catholicism since it is a humanist centred religion rather than the Theanthrophic (Godman) religion that Christianity was pre schism and still is in the East with Orthodoxy but people will think I am out there with this. But the French Revolution was the point where the secular materialist worldview with funding from those like the Rothchild had overthrown the Monarchy and had successfully replaced actual traditional values with "enlightenment" ones such as freedom and liberty.
    2. I have been a gamer all my life and have put thousands of hours into a couple of games so I'm not trying to talk trash when I say this but gaming can't ever be considered art since it is one of the most disposable form of entertainment and people should spend less time playing when they are neglecting their real life duties and responsibilities. Let's be honest, there are plenty of people that will use video games as a form of escapism and just become a NEET, it is so easy to fall into the trap of playing video games or going on social media while neglecting their own life.
    3. This applies to modern movies and modern entertainment in general as well but I truly think 99.9% of culture is artificially forced upon people at this point of time. Especially with things like Operation Mockingbird and global financial institutions funding projects to propagandize the average person, nothing in entertainment is organically popular at least that is mainstream since your project can be easily defunded and your character assassinated if you go against what the state or global banks want to push upon society. It doesn't help that advertisements and even google will manipulate algorithms to make you less popular and to throttle you. You will never see someone like PewDiePie or people on youtube become organically popular ever again, viral culture is dead especially when social media can just ban you outright, shadowban you or manipulate algorithms because of wrong think. I honestly blame prank youtubers and reaction channels for creating the lowest form of content that was so scummy that TH-cam was forced to intervene and clean up their platform, that was the point when the MSM tried to subvert youtube and now the internet is truly no different to cable in terms of how sanitized it is, the only difference is content is on demand.
    Some people might link back the cultural rot back to the "satanic panic" or the Puritanical movement, but in my eyes I truly think it began with the French Revolution, at this point in time most normies have the worldview that equality, freedom, the concept of rights and the rational mind itself are the highest values of civilization but this is far from the traditional values western civilization had even pre-christianity.
    In my opinion, the only way things will ever change is if secular humanism is defeated since that is the root of Classical Liberalism and Neoliberalism, which I would advocate by returning to true Christianity with Christ (which is not Catholicism with it's corrupt papacy lie or Protestantism which is basically Catholicism where the individual are there own popes, which is why there are tens of thousands of denominations).
    But I guess people will call me a religious zealot or archaic for suggesting the only solution to this problem.

    The West had far warning in advance this was going to happen, yet both sides continued to stay entrenched in their positions of excess and modernity until the seeming bipartisanism suddenly shifted in one's favor hard. They had taken the institutions, entertainment, corporate, and one can argue religious sectors like warned. The right had become just as secular by thinking tradition alone could stand against immorality, missing that Christian bulwark. The church fell to the same trap and only seemed hypocrites when tried to warn what was to come even if correct. The left was too busy being drunk on power and gaining more and more ground.
    Those in control of all this still aren't done, at least not to me. We saw the Progressive, atheist, secular ideology take hold just like during the French Revolution and in the relative short-term burn out because it collapses and destroys itself. Nonetheless, the mentality and nature Marxism/Communism brings out in people lingers. I think we are going to swing right HARD, but not sure the speed in which it will. It's not about one side being superior to the other when both are working on the same board, only the veneer changes and way it oppresses may be worse in some respects. If religion is used, we know that history and it's results.
    Worrying about race, sex, or all the things a 1st world country person can lament will be nothing, truly, by the time the "next phase" kicks in. We all look back on the culture that was before with nostalgia, and though better in ways, it was still shite. Well hidden shite, because one side was getting it's way and needed the degeneracy to slide in. So much was manufactured it's hard to tell what was real. Artists, actors and whatever person we wanted to idolize was following a script not exposed for who they really were. The entertainment itself then was ruined, altered, or shown it was always propaganda and I think many would still desire to have the wool back over their eyes like during XXXX year. About everyone alive now has not known at time when actual reversal was possible, but even then people were still divided by petty differences. Slow to correct, late to pull the trigger.
