Twitter is actually banning people posting the ‘NPC’ meme for “dehumanizing speech"

Ah okay. Bethesda does make great games.

If you like seeing the same five ugly faces and hearing "I could have been an adventurer, but I took an arrow to the knee" a hundred times.

Dark Souls 4 Life!

I was thinking of checking out the remastered version that just came out for the switch.

Have you played a Dark Souls or Bloodborne before?

When people say that ''you cannot be racist against white people'' they mean mostly in a socio-economic sense. Racism matters if it has socio-economic consequences, otherwise it's basicly empty name-calling. For example saudis are racists as hell against south-eastern asian workers, their working conditions in the country are so bad that they are described as ''near slavery'' by Human Rights Watch attributing it to ''deeply rooted racial discrimination''. Now how could south eastern asians be racist toward saudis in any tangible way that could affect saudis lives? They just can't because their racism would be powerless.

Yea, except that isn't the definition of racism. Its an example of people modifying reality to fit what they want, which is to be hateful to other races, in this case whites, without feeling bad about it. Its a way to justify those racist thoughts.

I appreciate you quoting me, otherwise Id possibly think I spoke out of line and said something stupid, nowhere did I say they “ban” sites from the internet, that would be a terrible gaff; once again they go after domain registrars, ISPs, payment processors and artificially change their own search engine to bury results they don’t want you to have.

On that as well, Gab has had their registrar, ISP, cloud and payment processor messed with a “conservative twitter” as you put it. Even tho it is just free speech

I didn't say "ban" either.

I said " can not stop" .

Putting pressure on ISPs, PayPal and domain registrars to have them not host a particular website will not work, cause there will always be some of these companies who will not comply. Stormfront was briefly off the air several months back, but then it came back on the air.

Well I say go for it. Just be warned:

1) It's very punishing until you get used to and understand the combat.
2) Your goals in the first half of the game are very obscure, it's more about exploration and discovery than anything. It's entirely possible to walk into an area you aren't prepared for, so be prepared to leave that area and go somewhere else (kind of similar to old-school JRPGs).
3)Try to hold-onto until you beat the boss at the bottom of blight-town (pretty close to half-way). Everyone I know who made it that far turned into a dark souls fanatic. Everyone who didn't make it there hates the series. It does tend to inspire extreme reactions.
4)The graphics aren't amazing, especially by today's standards, but some of the boss designs are the things nightmares are made of.

Racism has to have a power component . On an individual level a non-White can certainly be abusive to a White person motivated by racial bias and that would be racism, but on a national level , in the US it is not really possibly to be racist against Whites.

Except John McCain.

Trump can break the rules, he could fuck a purple haired, gender studies tranny and suddenly team MAGA would start doing the same and criticizing "cucks" who didn't.

He can break some rules, but he can't (and wouldn't) break that one.

This is just another example of redefining words to mean what you want them to mean. The entire idea that its not possible to be racist against whites is so ridiculous I can't even comprehend it. I have to assume you are trolling and don't actually believe your own bullshit.

Weird..

And even beyond that, "racist" has been merged with "racial".

By this logic Mein Kampf was not racist.

You ignored the point I made about individuals having the capacity to be racist. Mein Kampf is the sentiments of an individual.

That's a little much for some people here to grasp.

You started out by stating unequivocally that racism has to have a power component. It doesn't.
