This is classic midwittery. This troon (let’s assume, it’s fun) sees opponents on both sides of the bell curve. He has nothing to say to smarter people, so he lumps them in with the “low IQ dummies”. His high IQ opponents could easily explain to him why he’s wrong - and why the low IQ opponents are correct by way of osmosis - but that conversation will never happen.

That copypasta basicallly says that they want games that take on social issues but only if they agree with the conclusions made. Plus I doubt real gamers actually want lecturing or preaching in their games. As for the police brutality on black men comment, that just shows they are regurgitating what they read from huffpo. Same with the desire for diversity

As would most people. You hear left wing talking points all the time. Why would you want them in your games

If they made a game about a black man rejecting gangster thug culture and not blaming whitey to working hard to become a contributing member of society, the lefty internet would die from outrage.

I can see the reviews already lol. Or if they made a sim city type game where riots cause the city to lose money due to businesses leaving

I can imagine a mod where that adds an event called "Fiery, but mostly peaceful protests" and it just huge areas with rioters. Then they never get rebuilt either. Lefties would lose their damned minds over that.

And you are the new mayor and have to convince people to invest in the city again. And the lesson should be to never let your city be run over by thugs

Can you imagine media tackling the real world ramifications of IQ? It’s terrifying stuff, and no one will touch it. So “brave”.

As you age you just see the same patterns repeat over and over. I've already seen this "grand Civil Rights struggle" shit 3 times in my life: blacks, women, fags. The story is no longer interesting to me, and I have no desire to see another iteration of it.

Fags was the beginning of Civil Rights for stuff you do. Women can't help but be women. Same with blacks. With fags, at the very least they can choose not to do what they do. Fag rights is all about their right to do atraditional stuff. It's not that gays were actually denied rights before.

The category differences between the three honestly aren't that interesting to me any more. It's all the same annoying shitheads pushing all of these things in an increasingly shrill manner. And the past 3 years have demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt that they don't actually care about any of the principles they espouse. The annoying shitheads have their "pets", and by god they're going to take care of them (at your and my expense of course).

American presidential elections are decided by independents and fringe party voters who normally don't vote but 'will feel the need to this time around to make a difference'. That's why you constantly get these fake post-millennial 'civil rights' struggles that are supposedly 'seminal life-or-death struggles'. They're seeking to galvanize these voters.

I went to law school in my late 30s, surrounded by Zoomers. I’m not sure “mature and thought provoking” can realistically describe Zoomers or any of the things they actually consume or interact with regularly. They are, by and large, not a serious cohort.

A) This poster is obviously peak retard.

B) "...the suffering that women experience at the hands of sexism and objectification" is nothing compared to the benefits they reap from those same forces.

The number of Trannies on there daily is fucking weird. They don't hide at all they talk about wanting to suck tranny dick and use rainbow flags unironically. At first I thought they were discord or /lgbt/ raids, but now they're regularly 20% to 30% of the board. They bond well with the MGTOWs, so they are no longer mocked into oblivion.

Another 30-40% are obvious glowies, who also seem to not bother to hide much anymore, but post under "Fascist" or "Nazi" flags and encourage conservatives not to bother voting but instead to "take matters into their own hands", all while simultaneously sucking Ukraine's dick. Not suspicious at all.

The rest are a mix of the occasional genuinely intelligent, the autists, the amusing, and the normally blackpilled.

Most notably, there is basically no humour left on what used to be one of the funniest boards on the internet.

Oh well.

I suspect a lot of the long-time 4chan posters like me have been banned and moved on. I got hit with a /pol/ ban in March for reasons that weren't explained to me. Haven't been back since.

I have only a passing familiarity with 4chan, mostly due to an interface that looks like it's from AOL online in 1995.

That said, I know /pol/ was the group that harassed Shia LeBouf, manipulated a number of internet voting contests (Hitler did nothing wrong- the newest Mountain Dew flavor!) and try cked people into putting iPhones in the microwave among other exploits. How do you get banned from there?

I've been there since the 00s and I can say that no "alt-tech" options would allow 4chan migrants to act like well 4chan migrants. The BirdHarvest site is basically the only one, and its still non-anon.

Every time one of these "options" crop up, you can just pose a question or two and watch them immediately reveal how quick they'd sell you all out. The "loli" one is an age old barometer and works almost every time to show that even if its not something you like, their "principles" are always easily dashed when they get emotionally or disgusted by something.

However this is talking under the assumption that 4chan is some monolithic thing, instead of dozens of boards with minimal interaction with each other and far different sensibilities.

He says that like games have been getting stronger narratives and more thought provoking plotlines lately.

In reality, the reduction of bust size has coincided with game plotlines becoming incoherent messes written by committee.

Game politics are just a parrot squawking the zoomers' own mediocre beliefs back at them. They act like "systemic oppression" or "muh society" is a high minded, complex concept, when really it's so basic a 95 IQ high schooler could understand it, and it's only so popular because ironically it appeals to the primal, undisciplined id. It feeds their fantasy that they are smart because they know the "in thing" and everyone who doesnt is lesser. They are better than everyone, secretly, the reason they keep failing and losing control of themselves is actually vague amorphous, invisible social chains.

Really their beliefs are just primitive tribalism with fancy dressing.

Every board has a few political shills who do their best to frame narratives desirably, samefagging up transparent consensus cracking threads, policing user expression with attitudes that come from literally no where, no base, no place from which the attitude has migrated in via raid or crossposting screenshots and etc. It is a custom made dissenting-yet-stubbornly-devoted 4channer attitude. Exists only there, based only on genuine user attitudes there. Shilling 4chan is basically its own international industry and that means some of it is really low quality and noticable. Cheapest bidders and such. Lazy systems. ESL speakers, too.

Yes, the NPCs really do think they're smart when they regurgitate what their masters tell them. That's why it's so hard to deprogram them. They legitimately think they're better than anyone that doesn't toe the line like they do.

The take on Zoomers is hilarious, because it's so fucking wrong. Christ, I've been trying to get my nephews to stop playing dumbass mobile games they randomly download ever since they moved closer to me. That's the only gaming "narrative" they have been exposed to and all they wanted to interact with. It started out so bad.. I emulated Pokemon Fire Red and they just kept hammering A because they didn't want to read even a second of a dialogue. Constantly complained about not knowing what they needed to do to catch the pokemans. It was fucking ridiculous.

Granted... there was a lot more reading than I remember... but ffs. I've made progress though. Got the older one pretty hooked on Arceus. Which is astonishing, because the dialogue in that is real rough. He still doesn't comprehend what the fuck a side quest is and basically ignore em and has no idea what the story is about... but baby steps. I swear, Roblox smooths brains...

taking anything said on /v/ seriously

People there are so addicted to TORtantic and rage baiting that every single thread is steeped in multiple layers of ironic trolling for Yous and to make screenshots like this.

I guarantee with all I have this guy doesn't believe most of this post, he just knows it'll get responses and some people live for that.
