This is seriously getting out of hand IMO.

The issue with these topics is that what is defined as controversial is highly debated, its like saying 'i respect your right to live your life as you see fit, but i don't have to agree with it' is apparently considered offensive and a threat........when it was none of those things.

This is why hate speech laws are very bad, because hate speech is not defined enough, but i suspect it was done like that for this purpose, where you can make ANYTHING hate speech and will likely be used to silence any rival narratives or ultimately anyone who disagrees with your views.

I am personally looking forward to this game, i hope it is good.

lol who cares about resetera. It's a hivemind of gullible virtue signaling idiots anyway.

Never heard of them, no one uses forums anymore they're probably trying to reach for media promo as a safe haven to dudes that like cosplaying women online.

Hate Speech laws are often quite well defined. At least here in Canada. Section 319 clause 3 covers the four defences. For example, one of those defences is it can't be hate speech if the statements communicated were found to be true. If I wanted to say westerners are taller than Asians, that wouldn't be hate speech. That and the context of where I said it matters too. In fact, hate speech is very hard to prove under our rigorous standards. So very few people get prosecuted for it.

I think since the law has been established 6 or 7 people have been criminally prosecuted for it? And every single one of those people prosecuted used language that was genocidal or adjacent to those genocidal beliefs. Like actual nazis using their newspaper to talk about the jews kind of people. Yeah, no. Trust me, I've seen a lot of Canadians use the n word in private because rural areas are just like that. Personal use isn't going to violate Canadian Hate Speech laws though.

Lol who gives a crap about that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥?

[Miro Fox]

what even is "ResetEra" is that even a big forum?
i really doubt it xD

[Chroniver]

Haven't ever heard of this forum.

This ♥♥♥♥ is stupid. Do these people even think about where society is headed if we all just boycott each other instead of debating?

Everyone stuck in their little trench against hordes of perceived enemies. Simply ugh.

Never heard of ResertEra either, and not really sure this is the publicity they're looking for. I mean, who has time for all these outrage forums anyway? I give just enough time on steam forums when I'm between things I actually care about, otherwise I'm busy with either gaming, work, or whatever. These clowns need a hobby or a job or something.

I hope this will let a lot of people realise how this totalitarian cult operates and how powerful it is.

They know that what they do is so horrific and indefensible that they must never let the opposition have its say.

I wouldn't be too concerned. These things never have any real power; they're just good for snagging clicks about an extremist minority who have nothing better to do than be outraged by everything for attention. Nothing gets clicks like negativity, especially when, I guess I'll call them journalists, are looking for a paycheck and the easiest way is giving a platform to a tiny hate mob which makes them seem more relevant than they truly are.

I don't think they were talking about the forum but either way it's hilarious.
