Where am I?
posted 4 years ago by nerg 4 years ago by nerg +53 / -0

I just wound up here from some reddit argument over a videogame bear and I've never seen this place before. What's the deal? This one of those alternative reddits for subreddits who got banned? What's a troon? What does the name kotaku in action mean? thanks.

During Gamergate the reddit gaming subs got ultra woke and censorious and gaming journalists went full retard. Thus KotakuInAction (after the gaming "news" site Kotaku) was born to chronicle the decent into woke madness of journos and gaming in general.

Over time KiA mods on reddit got censorious themselves as people wanted to talk about social justice bullshit outside of gaming and in society in general. Thus KiA2 was born.

As reddit censorship and admin abuse got worse and worse we moved here.

Basically this. To add to this answer, this forum (the .win sites and scored.co) is one of the few places left on the internet where one can speak freely, and all that implies. KiA has basically evolved into a journalist watch group, as well as a lite version of conspiracies.win, with a focus on entertainment and pop culture. Feel free to join the conversation, and be prepared for what people have to say.

Also, Troon = a transgender person who does not pass as their claimed gender. Often times this refers to men claiming to be women who still have stubble or beards, have a masculine body structure, but think wearing makeup and a wig hides all that. Troons also tend to have a warped view of what a man/woman is, often times acting like a satire of a man/woman but thinking it's normal. They tend to be insufferable, and are not to be confused with legit transvestites.

where one can speak freely

TheImpossible1 would probably disagree .. if he could.

Fair. The mods here tend to ban glowies (feds or bad-faith actors trying to stir shit up), but at this point I don't think he's a glowie. #FreeImp

He's just good ol' fashioned crazy. And as long as you accept that alongside his commentary, he can provide useful insights and angles not otherwise seen. Best feminist this site has, he can prove literally anything is controlled by women!

I was permanently banned for using forbidden language and for expressing opinions offensive to the Little Hitlers drunk on their pathetic little moderating power over at Reddit, so here I am.

We're a wretched hive of scum and villainy. We're here because the ideological purges came for our vidya and we're the last hold outs against it.
