Which is funny because they are against militarism

They are against *other* peoples militarism. They will gladly embrace it if need be to achieve their own goals, however most of Japan would take them down if they showed any real intent cause unrest.

That's not what I read, but they were probably wrong. The way they suggested it was they were against militarism and relying on China's military to prevent an imperial fascism from occurring again.

Oh, that was an aspect I hadn't considered.
Instead of subversion just begging papa China to kill everyone.

Going to her YT channel it would seem she has moved to criticize movies and hollywood (Particularly Consoomer Dc, Marvel and Disney shit).

Let's be honest here nobody in that circle is likely to take her seriously and it won't really matter how much her friends try and screech about it she will never be part of Hollywood's rich and famous at this point.

Ergo all she can really do is continue to get money from an industry where she is protected from all possible harm by her circle.

Such is life.

The story was that she was all set to move onto becoming a "legit" movie critic with Joss Whedon's help. But then her BF threw a huge tantrum over Black Widow's portrayal in Age of Ultron and used Anitas personal army to terrorize Joss and basically force him to apologize to Anita for triggering her boyfriend.

This event caused Joss's connections who he was selling Anita to as a "legit" critic and claiming that any criticism of Anita was "women hating trolls" to realize that the critics of Anita were right and that they told Whedon to fuck off and severed all ties with Anita, killing her dreams of being a "legit" movie critic.

the thing that gets me the most is the title of the article “Sticks to the middle and ends up nowhere because of it”

what’s up with the random instances of journalists thinking that being neutral is considered a huge problem, yet when journalists do it it’s okay to ”find common ground with the enemy?”

The left got so fucking close to achieving the dream of the Thousand Year SJW Reich in 2016, only for Trump to steal it from them.

Ever since then, they've gone full W "You are either with us or against us" scorch earth on anyone not on board the leftie Hitler train of bringing about the Thousand Year Reich of the SJW wet dreams.

At least those people support the companies that make those waifus, where as you force and manipulate North American companies to censor female characters while still not buying their products to “make a stand”

I dunno they're referencing comicsgate(that's the CG) where it's known that a bunch of people involved don't know shit about comics and are just there to try and own the libtards. They don't buy the products they ideologically defend either.
 
Going back to Colin Moriarty for a second, I didn't know who he was then and I don't care or follow him now but what happened was an exemplary sign of the times we live in.

It was posted way back in this or the journalism thread plus other places that some (let's assume woke) people had set their sights on him way before he was ousted and they were just waiting for something, anything, that would let them attack him and drive him out. That's why when he made that tweet things went from zero to sixty in a split second and those that weren't actively driving him out would turn a blind eye, defending him right then would not be in their best interest.
A lot of people scratched their heads over the enormous and wide reaching outrage over such a tame joke and that was because it was an actual conspiracy behind it, not the natural reaction to a tweet.
They continue to attack him because he didn't go away forever, it was not just about getting him fired, they also wanted to burn his life down for reasons I can't remember, but it was probably over something stupid that wouldn't get much traction if they try to use it for a social media lynching. Must have been some real petty shit.

tl;dr
Actions have consequences even if the actions are vague, confusing and only known to a secret cabal of cunts.

yeah, 'cause they figured they'd be making more money off Youtube by bitching how terrible modern comics are than making their own shit.
 
Feel free to rate me late if someone else has already talked about it somewhere in the forum but I just found this interesting enough to share.

It would seem a lot of suits bored out of their ass are prepping up a class-action lawsuit against Sony

Sony PlayStation 5 Digital Edition Antitrust Litigation

The Joseph Saveri Law Firm has filed a class action antitrust suit against Sony for charging inflated prices for its PlayStation games.

Yesterday when I heard about it I dismissed it as Apple v Epic nonsense but thinking about it on the back of my head today their case actually makes sense; They're going after Sony for holding a monopoly over their digital market place where they are currently overcharging the costumers that have bought digital-only consoles when compared to people that have bought consoles with the Bluray player.

Their claim shows as a basis that selling games in bluray is not a monopoly as retail and individuals can do whatever the fuck they want with their blurays (Trading them, selling them used, placing them in the bargain bin, etc.) whereas people with digital have no other option than using their online store for a markup where they could've gotten it cheaper by buying physical. On normal circumstances this also wouldn't be a problem as people can chose which console to buy but they cite Sony is extremely happy to do this as there are (Allegedly) more digital only consoles in the hands of consumers with bluray units not being able to meet demand for months.

I have no idea if they have any data or proof of this other than personal anecdotes but if they do I find this one to be a really interesting case to keep an eye on.

Games in digital format should be sold cheaper than the physical version but that would piss off the retailers. The same thing happened to Microsoft during the 360 era after they held an event similar to the Steam Sales. They only did it once I think.
As for Sony, you can only buy digital games on the PSN, places like Amazon can't sell digital copies anymore.
 
The lawsuit if it does go forward would be a good lead into the bigger issue of software rights and ownership. But as of right now the case stands on very little solid ground, it has to cause a ruckus and get noticed. However the one thing that's under it all is big box retailers wanting a larger cut of the pie and trying to self justify their continued existence because they have seniority. It would be like Turner trying to sue Funimation because Turner owns cartoon network and therefore anything cartoon related must somehow involve them in a capacity.

Not really, that analogy is pretty poor. The issue is that they don't let them sell digital codes anymore or at all. Amazon used to, but doesn't anymore and I think GMG is the only one now that does. Microsoft still sells little cards with codes on them for people with digital only consoles like the Series S so they can pick it up at say Walmart or something. Sony is basically denying anyone with the digital only PS5 to buy games from anywhere else other than their online store.

So for your analogy to work, it'd be that Turner licensed Funimation for distribution - for whatever reason - but Funimation can only sell physical copies where Turner gets to sell digital and physical. And with the fact Sony has mostly been pumping out Digital PS5s - although I disagree it's coordinated, it's just a happy coincidence for them that the additional parts for Physical PS5s makes it harder to produce them on par with digital - anyways, since they've been mostly pumping out Digital they get an uneven amount of business where the other stores have to deal with the fact less people have Physical and when you consider how piss poor their output of consoles has been makes it even harder for them to sell the games. That's where the lawsuit comes in.

Whether or not it has any legal basis, I don't know and it probably doesn't. Sony basically gets to decide to how to handle their store, but what we have here is that Sony is monopolizing a form of their product that is at present unavailable to retail and the Digital PS5 is disproportionate to the Physical PS5 retail requires to be on the market to make money off of physical discs. They're basically throwing darts at the wall and seeing what they hit.
 
looks like Aloy received reboot Lara treatment🤮

As I saw elsewhere on Twitter, she looks like she's starting to have an allergic reaction to something.
