One Pokémon tournament judge claimed Makani Tran's laugh made them 'feel unsafe and uncomfortable'

Why aren't they naming these people?

well these are trannies. by the time you read that article, it may be considered deadnaming.

These people are mentally ill, schizophrenic narcissists. They belong in a mental institution, not in society.

After the encounter, Tran was confronted by the head judge prior to a game

So a coward, on top of that too. The cretin couldn't even boot him itself, and had to go tattle to the boss.

Also, I hate how far we've let this go. The booted player had to explain multiple times why he laughed nervously. No harm was actually done to anyone by laughing, no crime was committed. But he still feels the need to try to basically apologize, after getting railroaded for no reason. "No, no, I'm not transphobic or anything, don't punish me for absolutely nothing harder than you already have!" I get it, and I'm not calling him specifically pathetic (I feel bad for him, and he's just a teenager who was in a high-stress situation), but the whole cultural situation absolutely is pathetic.

I hate everything about this. Absolute nonsense.

This is the sort of psychological warfare and "self critique" you saw in the Mao's Cultural Revolution. They badger and pilpul the weakminded, breaking them down to the point that they'll believe anything if it stops the abuse. It's literally the "there are five lights" scene from 1984.

Also notice how the judge performed like good party apparatchik. "I'm sorry, but the rules are the rules."

"The head judge tells me that he was sorry and that it sucked but I was disqualified due to pokemons [sic] policy. At this point I’m at the verge of tears but I tried my best to keep my composure. I just couldn’t understand what was happening. Was the judge just not listening to anything I had just told him? Was he trying to look at my side of the story at all??

This is the sort of shit you read about in Gulag Archipelago, where some citizen is foolishly expecting the commissar to take pity on them, appealing to his humanity right before he sends him to the gulag for 20 years. Today it's silly kids pokemon tournaments. But this mindset is percolating upwards and reaching a tipping point of what Gramsci called "cultural hegemony. "

This is why trannies, and more broadly, leftists, should be removed from as many things as possible.

Bunch of crybully faggots who aren't worth the oxygen to keep them alive.

I think 41% is a disappointing number , we should try and get that above 50%. I think we can do it if we all try together.

Awareness campaign for the virtues of staying local, going down the road instead of across the street.

These abominations aren't happy until you're on your knees sucking the lady penis while telling it how it's the most beautiful woman in the world. Even then I'm sure more would be demanded of you.

Quarterpounder did that for M:tG. The judge program twisted around itself to defend the pederasts. Almost nothing came of it except him being exiled for noticing.

It's not surprising that Pokemon's judge program has a Troon in it, just tiresome.

It's a lever of power over children. You do the math.

I feel unsafe if someone asks me my pronouns because I know for a fact that that person is a communist, and communism has killed more people than any other ideology in human history.

I thought he was like 10 so I looked it up and stumbled upon Makani's twitter. Kid seems to be the same type of person as the judge.

He's currently bitching that the heretics and blasphemers over at Fox news dared speak his name without permission. Oh, and reiterating over and over that there is no war in ba sing se and everyone who disagrees is a yucky icky conservative transphobe.

As far as I'm concerned this is just the start of a young NPC getting everything he asked for, repeatedly, for the rest of his life. Enjoy the right side of history, retard.
