Ugh this is why I didn't want to bring this up despite feeling pretty much the same way that Mookie does. I LOVED the documentary overall but you can love something but still be able to critique it. I shared this documentary with almost all my friends, but that bit in Episode 8 is pretty much...

accidentally double posted, sorry

For all the abstract 'logic'-ing that has been going on in the past few pages, it's pretty disappointing how nobody has even responded to this, which is an actual, concrete example of what we're talking about. Are you guys really going to tell Strong Bad his feelings are illegitimate? And if...

WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

if someone is at high % and past uthrow-uair % i just throw them in the direction that moves them further from center stage. then wall them out with bair

First off, I'm glad I can have a civil discussion about this with you, 'full meta' and all =P So, you're right. I've neglected to provide any sort of empirical data to back up my arguments, which I thought would be self-explanatory enough (see MookieRah's post above) that they don't require...

Did you even read my post? I'm not saying his opinion is invalid because he's not gay. I'm saying his opinion is bad because it's being made without having understood certain experiences that are relevant to the thing he's having an opinion about. OF COURSE straight people can empathize with gay...

I wish I could quit you Okay, so it's clear to me now that you've never engaged in any sort of conversation regarding privilege, social justice, and minority movements because otherwise you wouldn't even attempt to use this anecdote as an argument. There's a fundamental difference between what...

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure it's just because we weren't using mixers at all, just ****ty headsets connected to laptops. When people yelled there was just a ton of audio clipping (which is why those old videos have such a "rough sounding" audio).

Couldn't you just compress the hell out of the mic signal? ...I'm guessing that's a feature only the "more powerful mixers" have =/

:joyful: It'd be hilarious if I didn't also find his whole attitude toward this completely sickening. ... Sigh Look, Wretched, I realize opinions about these sorts of things don't exactly change overnight. But I encourage you to actually read what we've written and give it some...

That's cute that you thought that post was only meant for you.

LOL ok. im glad we settled that. Edit because I feel slightly guilty about not even attempting to explain why your opinions are ****: Language doesn't exist in a vacuum. Words, and the power they hold, are informed by history and by culture. The distinction between a slur and a 'bad word'...

some of the responses in this thread are infuriating "but how will I, as a straight white male, express myself without using homophobic, sexist, and racist slurs?!?!" have some ****ing empathy, just because it doesn't affect you doesn't mean it can't impact someone else in a significant way...

From the same beginnings as darkatma and I :) good **** matt
