CatoTheElder is a classic one and it's not a 'I'm smarter than everybody' post, I simply give a shit about video games and don't use gaming places as a way of piggybacking an ideology while doing a hello fellow gamers routine. Also when I do get downvoted lets be fair, it's usually by the same 7 - 8 retards who have a problem with me precisely for calling them out unless I've posted something particularly controversial.
I don't even know why this particular guy has such an issue because he's even resorting to posting games journalist style attacks on me because he just recently claimed that I wanted to make it so that people couldn't use keymaps which is total bullshit and even the thread I linked doesn't have any of that in it.
So if you are not a fence sitter, and you are attacking the right, then you are a leftist.
I don't automatically simp for the right therefore leftist is his position apparently. To which I always respond with, what exactly has he done for gamers? There were users here on a gaming community specifically attacking gamers as well and I just put them on a blocklist but it was the usual tradcuck and neo-con style posting no one should really bother with.
Also worth noting the people who outright hate me tend to be actual white nationalist types who are always sperging about jews every five seconds oh how will I cope /s I got into a fight with one of those retards who advocated picking on and ostracising mixed race kids and wasn't shy about it.
Some people are so fucking embroiled in the right/left ideological warfare to the point they're not only cringe they're completely ignorant of any world view aside from what they believe and what they hate. Or as an extra point, what happens to pop up on the trending page at any given moment.
At least Imp will just force every topic to be on his small places of "expertise" (women, Fortnite, Epic, racing games). So it makes sense all his opponents might be that.
Our boy here is an expert in everything, so why would the tradcucks and Nazis be attacking him for his brilliant opinion on Flight Sims and Video Game systems?
You say dumb shit sometimes. Your knee jerk "right wingers" when you are referring neocons, establishment twits and various other groups is so unspecific that it comes off as retarded.
You don't have a very good grasp of what "right wing" and "left wing" actually mean, because you're aligning cultural stereotypes with political ideologies. That's why you get downvoted when you say "right wingers". Because it comes off as "enlightened centrist" ignorance when you slander everybody when you're referring to groups that aren't inherently tied to the right wing to begin with.
It's not just establishment types though, it really isn't, don't get me wrong, I get what you mean, I suppose I could be autistic about it and get really specific but it's a case of it's really getting noticeable how people involved in almost anything politically simply don't like gamers. That's the problem though, even if I got really specific it would turn into quite the list of factions and it's one of my litmus tests on anybody honest because Trump himself has bashed games in the past.
Be honest, when have you ever seen anybody even vaguely political openly defend gamers? I can't think of a single person, the only time it's even vaguely happened is if it's with the GamerGate crowd or people who just happen to be high profile businessmen or whatever that clearly enjoy games themselves. If Trump came out and addressed what he's said previously and brushed it off as some neo-con douche whispering in his ear that would make more sense to me and I'd be comforted by that but no. Also worth noting all this government espionage against gamers hit has been happening on his watch.
At the very least you'd think people on the right would care about government money being pissed away on something as silly as searching for extremists in gaming communities.
Your problem is that you think “gamer “is a valid cultural/political identity. It’s not. As a “gamer”, you share your “gamer demographic” with almost every belief system on the planet. Barbaric Muslims, subversive Bolshevik Jews, ghetto black Americans, socialist South Americans, degenerate trannies, feminist zealots - they all play video games in 2024. That’s why it’s now the most profitable entertainment industry by a wide margin.
“Gamer y/n?” is a retarded condition for your friend/foe distinction these days. You’re basically a civnat, except you’ve replaced “magic dirt” with gaming. Under your schema, you have greater solidarity with a psychotic leftist communist than a good family man so long as the former loves video games and the latter doesn’t like them very much. Do you not see how insane that is?
The truth is that people like you are the reason gamergate 1.0 didn’t work. Because it turns out you can’t stand shoulder to shoulder with people whose most cherished ideas are antithetical to your existence. People from all different hobbies can come together to fight a shared ideological enemy. People from all different ideologies cannot come together to fight for a hobby. It’s tantamount to multiculturalism, and we know that shit doesn’t work.
Everyone knows the point around the political compass where anyone to the right of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin is far-right. Potentially controversial opinion but we may now be seeing the concept being pushed that anyone to the left of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher is a Marxist.
Perhaps you should look at Regan's stances, since there isn't much difference between him and Biden. They pretty much have the same polices in everything except government spending and environmental regulations.
In other words, Regan and Biden were pro gun control, pro amnesty, pro "free" trade, pro civil "rights", pro faggots, and Regan appointed the first woman to the Supreme Court (Sandra Day O'Connor. FFS, Regan voted for FDR 4 times.
So if you are not a fence sitter, and you are attacking the right, then you are a leftist.
I don't automatically simp for the right therefore leftist is his position apparently.
When you proclaim that you were right about something in a condescending way and accuse supposed allies with broad strokes (instead of hitting the proper targets), it upsets the retards. It makes yourself look dumb, so I would again encourage you to stop doing it. It's no use flashing your plumage like a peacock when all it does is arouse anger in some hard-head types who can't comprehend beyond the "us vs. them" binary. Body language and intonation are missing from online discussions, and even though people have different ideas of what certain words mean, you have to understand the local context of where you're posting and be careful with word choice

Come on man, at least finish the paragraph before you contradict yourself. At least you waited until a little later for:
That's basically the same line of thought as Imp uses, so that gives an idea of the crowd he's keeping in terms of brain power.
At least Imp will just force every topic to be on his small places of "expertise" (women, Fortnite, Epic, racing games). So it makes sense all his opponents might be that.

Keeping people like you away.
