Devin Faraci - Guy who called us terrorists

[DrOswald]

Perhaps it's because you choose to call out Devin Faraci in the defense of people who are being even more dickish and actually harmful towards others?

And right here we have the problem. I didn't speak out in defense of anyone. I called out behavior that was unacceptable, words that the speaker himself agrees were unacceptable. But you are so stuck in us vs them that all you can see is an enemy. Because anyone who even questions the actions of your side must be one of them.

"It is important toe the line in these troubled times. We should show solidarity and support our comrades even if they step out of line. And if someone does step over the line the is a right way to call them out and a wrong way. When you criticize one of us you weaken our position. And, after all, we are fighting against something much worse." I have heard all the arguments before. I am not impressed.

Wait, when did this become a thing? I gather this person has unresolved problems he should see a professional about- judging by his tweets- and that he may in fact have the IQ of a beansprout. But Why is this a thread? I've never heard of him, so he can't be that significant. Let's ignore the tit.

Seriously, how can people spend so much time about nothing. Not that gaming itself is really meaningful or impactful in this world, no, people start meta-debates about sub-topics of it and this for weeks over pages and pages of wasted bytes.

Did that 9000 page long grabage-truck of a thread solve anything in the end? Or did everyside of the agrument still rest at their same spot were they started a bajillion letters before?

Great.

Then... can we please stop talking about these non-issues which have 0% impact in the real life anyway and stop filling the forums with clutter.
People are more concerned to talk about everything non-game related than actually talk about or play games :/

I love that after days of hearing you all yammering how people getting death threats should grow a thicker skin, the moment someone writes an article saying that the gamers involved in criminal behaviour are ACTUALLY CRIMINALS, you all collectively shit your nappies and wave them around while throwing a tantrum.
