Blizzard's + Twitch team up seems like a good idea

There would be no more hate speech, racism, homophobia, and general toxic behavior if all major video game platforms follow suit and maybe get youtube to do a similar scheme.

There's already♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥and♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥if people want "free speech" so we don't really need anymore of it on mainstream platforms. (imageboard websites coz apparently the censors here don't like em)

Yay for censorship /s.

Is it really censorship when you don't have the right of free-speech online to begin with?

You can call me an idiot ♥♥♥♥♥♥ hipster fruitcake, i won't stop you. I'll just cringe at your poor choice of an insult.

I wasn't intending to randomly start tossing ableist insults around, but uh, thanks, good to know.

[ʙᴜɴ.ᴇ]

I'm already getting sick of Blizzard locking content behind Twitch.

good thing I don't care about esports, but when there is content locked and im forced to use twitch it really annoys me. Why are Blizzard making certrain streamers money by giving them an audience to unlock stuff anyway? its stupid.

Chan sites were censored for a very good reason.

Can I get a rundown of what is being done? I'm not giving that channel any views.

:qr:

Took me less than a minute to check that he's basically alt-right.
And we all know the sources alt-right people give are most likely to be BS.

The goal in that case being reducing the harassment of trans folk.

People so fragile they can't handle words on the internet should not be allowed on the internet, and should probably be in the care of a mental facility as simply being in public is probably dangerous to their health.

You are insisting we pad the entire internet when in fact what they need is a personal padded room. Either that, or to harden the ♥♥♥♥ up.

Protect others from what? Mean words?

Bullying, harassment, discrimination. These have real effects on people's lives, and their popularisation and acceptance only normalises and cultivates harmful attitudes among communities and society at large.

But hey, if you think your words are inconsequential then it shouldn't be much of a problem to not say anything anyway.

Blizzards scantily clad female characters offends my religion. This sexualization has effects on peoples lives, as does the denigration of gods divine morals.

So you will bend to my morality or you should not exist.



The bay area moral majority knows what's best for everyone!

This is the attitude of a child who has no concept of empathy or respect. People like you are known as sociopaths and you are far more dangerous to civilisation than people with gender issues.

I don't know, I'm not a fan of his wording but I agree people are too thin skinned and coddled these days. Everyone wants to be outraged over everything, and that outrage always has a political leaning and the outrage mob turns out to be the biggest bullies themselves. And whenever they are given what they want like getting someone fired or force some kind of apology they never forgive and just get emboldened to ruin more lives.

People DO need to harden up and learn that emotional outbursts are not the way to get what they want.

Someone defending the crusade of intersectionalism should never call someone else a sociopath. There are few examples that demonstrate the concept of projection better than what you have just done.

The ideology you have aligned yourself with is one of the most subversive and totalitarian social dogmas to emerge in the modern era, you have to start going back to the development of abrahamic faith to find anything so sociopathically abhorent as the sort of things you people do to achieve your goals. Indoctrination is your bread and butter.

Your entire ideology is built atop preying on people's good nature and the vulnerability of victims, and it's utterly disgusting. You need people to be weak and soft, and so you encourage it just so you can manipulate them. Take your hollow virtue signaling somewhere else, it's not going to fly unchallenged here.

Totally agree with you Grav, my man. It's like giving candy to a baby after a temper tantrum. Except that baby is a brainwashed college student that gets credit for activism.

Maybe those people just want a friendly enviroment to talk about the game or the stream. Nobody likes rude people and if you are being rude then the mods are completely justified to ban you from chat. Linking your twitch account to your battle.net account could make trolling on the stream harder if the requirement is also to own Overwatch on that battle.net account. Otherwise it's pointless since making a battle.net account is free. Spammers, bots and trolls don't need to participate in chat. What is exactly wrong with this?

I wish it were just extra credit. The fields that these people usurped used to be about asking questions, for problem solving of course, but it was as any other science a practice of inquiry, comprehension and measurement. Now it's about pushing your preconcieved answers into power structures through activism. Imagine if we deployed technology with this methodology. Actually you can't, there would be no technology. We'd be trying to reinvent the wheel over and over.

Act, don't think, is what we're essentially seeing people be taught, because the ideology itself is divorced from the concept of an external reality. So it just fights everything as a massive power battle because from its perspective there's no right or wrong, and no bad tactics. Hence why it's so laughably ironic to be called a sociopath by someone on their side.

Sometimes, people need harsh comments.

Coddling them (especially people like Wings or DSP or the innumerable stream thots) is the last thing these people should receive.

Sounds like a good idea. I'm enjoying all the folk freaking out cause they'll actually be held responsible for their actions. Boo-hoo for those wee darlings.

Except there are no actions on a chat. Just words

The use of chat is an action.
Get as nitpicky as you want about it but you're still wrong.
