Anytime I see that lingerie one I always have to keep from acting up a little

I've posted a few things here and there, but tbh until they beef up the overall features on bluesky more I probably will only be active here every once in a while.

Is there even actually a point in all this? Neither of us has any sort of major following on here, and most people aren't really going to care for a bunch of yelling into the void. Even if I continued trying to debate in good faith, what good would that actually do? You've made up your mind already.

I'm making educated guesses based on things like the fact that the institute in question was headed by him, which by proxy would have made it a target for the Nazis. Also, the obsessive commenting on nearly every conversation or post I've made isn't the good look you might think it is.

Even the main person people try to refer to as being targetted for his trans research and such at the time - he himself was a jewish german citizen, meaning that even if his other topics were disliked it would've all been secondary to his Jewish background. There's no evidence to the contrary.

You're just throwing buzzwords without proper justification now. You use terms like anti-semite (which means someone hates Jews in general) without having any actual proof to back it. If people were targetted as being gay or trans or w/e, it was likely only due to being that on top of being Jewish.

The couple of articles you linked talked about Rowling not believing they targeted trans people specifically. Maybe I’m wrong. But the Jews were the main target, regardless of whatever orientation they may have been. Why go pointing fingers about anything else when we already know what happened?

The actual gall to claim I would deny those events happened the way they did. Millions of people died and you think I’m delusional enough to pretend it wasn’t born of one of the worst ideology’s known to modern times? Where do you get off acting that malicious trying to falsely discredit like that?

To clarify, they didn't directly link me anything. They did the equivalent of a twitter quote post and linked an article that only points out she denied it targetted trans people. Because that's the truth. It didn't. It targetted jewish people. Spinning it otherwise is bad faith arguing.

If I'm wrong about Rowling's stance on the holocaust then I'm wrong about it, but from the research I'd done it seemed more like she was arguing against it singling out trans people when the millions of jewish deaths shows what the actual target was. Nowhere did she say "the holocaust didn't happen"

Can we just not with these bad faiths exaggerations and purposeful misinformation campaigns? The "raving, obsessive cynics" was mainly about this influx of negative nancy tourists that don't even follow the vtubing scene floating in and suddenly acting like it's predominately far-right psychos.

Maybe I missed an article that went into more detail about it, but then if she had outright said it why would it have not been included in the article I saw since it'd be a more direct statement and thus more incriminating.

The only thing I ever found about this "holocaust denial" she supposedly did was when she stated something along the lines of it not targetting trans people at the time - because realistically back then trans people were not only *less* common than they are now, but the holocaust was targetting jews

And that's a large part of the problem, even before people like Trump come along and rocked the boat more, there was already big divides that were festering and building that would've erupted eventually anyways. It's the nature of the political pendulum, especially in the states.

And honestly it still is for the most part, you go into pretty much any vtubers stream and unless you're purposefully going into something of a more heated nature or topic it's going to be pretty chill and/or cozy. That or if you're going in with a negative mindset already premade.

I mean there's plenty of good things with vtubers if you aren't a raving obsessive cynic like a lot of these kinds of contrarians end up being. They act like vtubing is poisoned and unfriendly as a whole and that's just blatantly untrue.

Are people *still* going on with nonsense about hogwarts legacy and things about JKR that after doing some research is clearly just whataboutisms and purposefully misinterpreted statements? Sure she's a bit inflammatory butting heads on some topics, but she's never denied it happened outright.

Because while yes there's somewhat less of a "toxic" level of discussion here, I've seen some people get real preachy even when they have next to no reason to be on this site when all of their followers would be the ones to agree with them in the first place given their public posts about moving.

You could debatably argue it's a reverse echo chamber at the same time, because this whole situation has just gone entirely further than it ever needed to in the first place.

I grew up Evangelical before moving away from religion as a whole as I got older and never once did I see any more religion shaming or attempts to convert than any other religion or denomination was capable of. Sounds like a regional issue from my pov.

I love this old lady already and need to know what kinds of crazy shenanigans she got up to with "not Steven".

Compare the difference in the visual qualities of the game and keep trying that shtick, the game looks massively improved no matter how you might pretend otherwise

And that’s not something joining the union or making a game go union would necessarily magically fix.

VA work only supposedly “pays like shit” because rather than a regular 9-5 type of job it’s going into a recording booth for maybe a few sessions of a few hours at a time to do lines and such. The average pay per hour actually isn’t bad at all, the issue is getting back to back sessions.
comment in response to

If you look into what Taft-Hartley's are you'll see that there is an eventuality where VAs not in the union must join to continue working on union backed jobs. So while yes most unions are supposed to help the workers, some do it in bizarre roundabout and sometimes counterintuitive ways.

That’s some of the more casual gacha players for you - their only experience I’d the mainstream ones that are more generous to begin with, and then they raise fits they aren’t MORE generous when they believe they should be. There’d be a lot less whining if they saw the difference from worse gachas.

Corina's been crashing out since before AND after those moments, and they need more people telling them to stop trying to be the SAG police when SAG themselves hates anyone that is fi-core, no matter what % of VAs that may be. The two-faced system that SAG is in itself is just contradictory as hell.
comment in response to

It is actually a thing with the Taft-Hartley's required to work union jobs as a non-union va that eventually you enter "must join" status. It may not hit right away with some forms that can be filled out BUT those forms are both time consuming to be filed and accepted and they don't work forever.

Not sure why you had to mention the they/them thing, I never misgendered or anything so I don't see how that's relevant.

Literally look at some of corina's more recent tiktok's and you'll see how someone can damage the intent of something by going off the rails

There's "standing up for worker's rights", and then there's "loading a shotgun and shooting yourself in both feet while trying to soapbox". Which both are currently happening and the ones doing the latter are not being held back or told to shut up and stop damaging the strike's intent.

Honestly if it weren't for how poorly SAG is handling it's own side of things, I would be more inclined to want to put pressure on Hoyo in this situation. But the attitude towards many of its own VAs and the general attitude of some of the problematic VAs that are inflaming this mess is why I don't.
comment in response to
post
I think in reality SAG AND Hoyo should be telling VAs to stfu while discussions internally are still ongoing. This whole mess has turned into a PR shitstorm for both (much moreso SAG at this point) and they need to corral their VAs before anything else productive can happen
comment in response to
post
The realistic thing is that it’s not really our business what does or doesn’t get agreed on between SAG and Hoyo unless any of us were also VAs involved in the strike. Anything said without public records or documents is just conjecture and whataboutisms.
