I know Nick isn't vaccinated because he's alluded to it on stream. He was supposed to go to twitch con but I guess that may be changing because of this
Have any of these twitchcon event organizers been outside in the past year? Sporting events? Wrestling shows? Only people wearing masks are Luchadors and Jets fans.
At this point going to a "super-spreader" event is probably safer than going to a Penny Arcade Expo in the early 2010s.

Completely off topic to TwitchCon, but seeing PAX mentioned got me thinking. Has the Penny Arcade community always been such a lefty shit hole? I used to love posting in their forums in the early 2000s, and I don’t remember it being so overwhelmingly batshit crazy leftist. Especially the D&D sub-forum.
Maybe I just didn’t care about anything other than games at the time, so political leanings were meaningless to me, but every thread I look at there now seems to have certain political opinions and talking points crop up periodically with precisely zero counterbalance.
Was there always such a one size fits all political consensus over there that I just don’t remember? Did it just get selectively modded in that direction over time? Maybe my decades long hiatus just gave me fresh eyes to see political leanings that were always there. Maybe it should’ve been a permanent hiatus.
Pretty annoying a streamer I like, Albino, is evidently a mask cuck based on a stupid tweet he made in relation to this.
It’s particularly dumb because we’re talking about someone who uses rw humor and even goes so far as to use the phrase “maggot” as a stand in for faggot since he can say it on twitch/twitter with no repercussions, he even used it in his mask cuck tweet.
Really annoying to me when people pick and choose what social virtue signaling shit they follow and chastise others for the ones they don’t. Some serious internalized euro-cuckholdry while pretending to be edgy/transgressive going on there.
The funny thing is the CDC just came out with new "guidelines" saying this shit doesn't work. Wear a mask if you got the coof but if you don't don't bother. Stay the fuck away from everyone if you have it, otherwise it's business as usual. In fact tons of people are now ASYMPTOMATIC.
They are literally shitting on the face of the SOYENCE they defend. What the fuck is wrong with these retards?
They will proudly shit on 'the science' if doing so becomes useful for tribal in-group signalling. I've seen it happening online already in the wake of the updated CDC guidance - suddenly reddit rants appear about eg. a doctor who was unenthusiastic about pulling his mask up during an examination. Must be a secret Republican! Hold me, redditsisters, muh scientists have abandoned muh The Science!
It's more like a religious schism now; there will be a divide between The Science as pushed from institutions and propaganda outlets, and The Real Science or perhaps Science+, which is much more sensitive to the needs of women, gays and LGBTQ+.
It seems like anything that name itself ______-Con is woke as shit now. I guess that terminology is mostly used for nerd events and apparently a huge chunk of those that are nerdy enough to go to "cons" are just insane.
I mean even the CDC has dropped most of their Covid restriction BS, are these clowns not following the science anymore?
I think that it will be very difficult to build these bridges. The out-group (not vaccinated) are willing to talk to the true believers, but the true believers are not willing to listen to reason. They have been brainwashed by the media.
Typical Twitch streamers meeting. Faces covered. Tits out.
It's also how many people prefer shagging fat chicks.
I mean, the paper bag still doesn't cover up the fatness.
Maybe the dude should wear a paper bag as well?

Good for Nickmercs and everyone involved in that separate event. Parallel events for the non-crazies is the way to go going forward.

He is the one streamer other than tim I enjoy. Eats well, Works out hard and hated most of this far left bs seeping into culture.
Oh shit, I hope Brandon Hererra is going to this event instead then.
Was Donut the guy making YouTube videos breaking down police shootings, pro cop?
He's an ex cop. He's pro "don't be a retard" cop . And yes, he does shooting breakdowns and is funny.
He spars with blacks on Twitter when they post dindunuffin's getting "brutalized" by police.
Did someone tell Twitch they couldn't make TwitchCon gayer, or something?
Because this policy worked great for Gencon.
Too bad Covid is just a cold at this point.
Just a cold for the unvaccinated. Those that are vaccinated, it’s a reoccurring whooping cough at best.

They drafted Zach Wilson at least. Too bad their leadership is as stupid as Biden is.
I'm a Titans fan (even though I'm not from that state) so pretty much every home game there has been mask-free.

What's an example of rw humor?
Well, he's used the happy merchant in his main channel videos more than once.
This little 'technicality' has been the sustaining force in spreading covid since at least autumn last year.
Protest. Do not consume the content.

Steriles only.

Conventions like this and DefCon happening right now are no longer about their original subject matter, they are all now Covid Culture Conventions.
Ah, I've always hated twitch. Now I can hate them more.
Oh no, not Twitch con.
They'll have someone follow you around with defibrillators.
I'm surprised at the deadpan delivery.
Emphasis on dead.
Making sure you don't have any wrong think.
You still trying to find sense in all this?

And they are full of hate.
Like most liberals
