Peltz heads an anti-activist investor fund called Trian, which has a history of taking over board seats in companies that are providing poor shareholder returns and focusing on returning them to profitability. He already managed to improve stockholder dividends at a couple of other companies by forcing out woke executives and advocating an anti-activist agenda. It's not as though he's super based or anything, but he does seem to view corporations pursuing political agendas as a poor business strategy, which puts his group directly at odds with BlackRock and Vanguard.

Well they're obviously hoping for feedback from gamers like us about the level of toxicity their audience is likely to encounter when playing these games. To make the crowd-sourcing even more democratic, you don't even have to make an account to add your own ratings. Not that anybody on this forum should perceive this as any kind of . . . opportunity.

Description

The Toxicity Rating was created to inform gamers and parents of what kind of content they can expect to encounter while playing online. And call attention to the fact that the gaming community desperately needs change to be an inclusive safe space for all who play.

Here's the thing folks: It's interactive. You can add your ratings and comments to different games and their online communities based on 6 categories: Racism, Gender Discrimination, Violence, Sexual Content, Crude Humor and drug talk.

This format is clearly open to abuse, and I strongly discourage anyone on this forum from going to this website, where you don't even have to make an account in order to submit your own ratings, and add comments.

Don't do that.

Don't.

Who would have guessed that building an entire industry around female resentment and telling young girls that boys have it easier than them and they deserve special treatment would lead to girls believing that boys have it easier than them and demanding special treatment?

Zoomer women are not women. They're teenaged girls, and they probably always will be

He fits into the regime-enforced Zoomer aesthetic for men: scrawny, perpetually adolescent twink-like pretty-boys with womanish bodies. And he's rich.

I thought the same until the FBI came out a fucking day later and said, "We've completed a full and comprehensive investigation and there's nothing to see here. Oh, by the way, there's no black box."

Sorry, I meant they settled with the CFTOD, because RCID doesn't exist anymore.

And never will again.

No. Two entire generations of young men have grown up playing video games as their principal entertainment medium. For more than a decade, those same young men have grown more and more frustrated and alienated as their go-to form of escapism has been increasingly infested by leftists who want to use it as yet another stick go beat them with, to bully, harangue and demoralize them, and call them manbabies and racists when they speak out against that trend.

And so they turn away from the cultural left to more right-wing spaces in order to find like-minded people. These are the young people who might be more open to conservative ideas. But for every one of them who finds Nerdrotic, or Geeks + Gamers or even Sargon, there are another two or three whose first interaction with a rightist space is Matt Walsh calling video games demonic and his producer calling them manbabies for disagreeing with him.

QBG quit Crowder's show for the exact reason that he was constantly looked down on and treated like the kid in the room for caring about pop culture franchises and wanting to discuss the free reign that the left has enjoyed in those spaces, and in the social consciousness of the mostly young people who consume that material.

This attitude is the reason the right has lost the culture war, and two whole generations of potential allies.

We're not talking about a difference in taste here. We're talking about how all of the establishment boomercon pundits seem intent on alienating and making themselves irrelevant to young people by not only dismissing pop culture and video games, but by routinely shitting on people for liking it.

The fact that you're sitting here accusing me of engaging in that behavior when we've spent decades on the receiving end of it from guys like Matt Walsh, Stephen Crowder and Gavin McGuiness proves that you're the one who isn't paying attention.

This forum is still rooted in GamerGate. We are here because of nerd culture. Pop culture is by definition the facets of culture that young people are interested in. If conservatives refuse to fight for it, we are giving that generation to the left. All of their cultural experiences will be shaped by communists, globalists, anti-white narratives and LGBTards, and the right will continue to lose by sitting back and whining about how childish it is to care about that stuff at all. By deriding pop culture, Matt Walsh isn't fighting the degradation of our society: he is actively encouraging it.

If there are only two, it's possible that one is a legit comment and the other is a bot that just copies comments that already have upvotes in the thread. Bot farmers do that in order to earn their bots an established history of interactions on the platform.

The cost of your anonymity is too high a price. Digital ID will not prevent the corruption of children by leftists and globalists, but it will be used to prevent you from speaking out against it.

I live in Canada, where the government is desperate to spread the diversity far and wide through pilot programs, trying hard to leave no place for civilized people to flee to. The most densely-populated regions are Southern Ontario and the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. The established white middle class has already abandoned these areas, and the only people left are immigrants and rich white leftists.

The cities of Brampton, Ontario and Surrey, BC are both majority Indian, each home to 600 000+ people. Other nearby cities are almost as bad. The crime in these regions is so bad that the police are already flat out telling people that unless someone is actually seriously hurt, they're on their own. The government tries to tell us the crime rate has decreased since the 90s, but there can only be so many viral videos of Sikh gangs having sword fights in Tim Hortons parking lots before it becomes impossible to ignore.

Every university and community College in Canada is making a fortune off of international students, so even the schools in smaller communities are flooding these towns with Indians and Africans where there is not enough infrastructure to house them. Half of them don't even bother with school and immediately take jobs from the locals and do their best to work full time.

Housing and property prices are already completely out of reach of the middle class in all but the most remote areas. The social contract has completely broken down. Even in mid-sized and smaller cities the immigrant population is 20-50%. Drug use has exploded along with homelessness, and every city has tent cities with thousands of people living in them. We had a record number of deaths this past winter from exposure or overdose.

I live 20 minutes outside a smaller city in a less "enriched" province, but even here the problems with international "students," crime and drugs have got bad enough that stores are locking up valuable merchandise and any open position even for a part-time retail cashier gets dozens or hundreds of applicants. I moved here 10 years ago when things were starting to get bad in Ontario, and was able to purchase a home at a relatively good price. Plots of empty land on my road are now selling for the same amount I paid for my finished house.
