Wow, that is a hell of an alternate reality they live in. Silicon valley is merging with the right's brand? How, by censoring them?

I sincerely hope if my views were that divorced from reality I would be able to snap out of it when confronted with reality.

I seem to recall that a poster uploaded a picture of himself sarcastically doing the paper bag test in response to Koala's March saying that she didn't believe he was black because he had an opinion that was different to hers.

"Prove what race you are so that I can judge you" - someone who regularly accuses other people of being Nazis.

She's a mulatto who straightens her hair. You might mistake her for Puerto Rican if you saw her on the street.

No doubt she was teased constantly by her black peers in school for being too white, which is why she's super obsessed with racial politics and 'being black' in adulthood.
 
She s like all the mods a loser who needs to flex on others. Plus she scammed some money from goons for video editing pc

Pictured below is what must be the most hilarious Woke Olympics event I've seen in quite a while: MGS4 Gay Subtext Slapfight. To provide some context, the thread was discussing whether or not Adam and Eve from the videogame Nier: Automata (two male robots who are basically brothers) are gay and fucked because one is named Adam and the other is named Eve. This initial catfight spiraled into an argument about whether it was more woke to read gay subtext into Ocelot and Solid Snake's characters in Metal Gear Solid 4 or whether it was bigoted to automatically assume two men living together taking care of a little girl were gay.

Bonus points from the judges to another Goon who posts a passive-aggressive bingo card with such amazing terms as "the straights" to determine if a piece of media is gay with a massive wall of text in the middle of the free space.

My favorite thing about goon slapfights is that they argue like middle school goth kids. Both sides of the argument want desperately to be seen as not caring but still participating in an argument so you see the stereotypical phrases like "hot takes" or the lack of punctuation and one sentence replies, but you can tell on the inside they are absolutely triggered.

Anyone know anything about Endorph? I've dug through his (I assume) post history before and he just screams troon to me but I haven't been able to confirm it. He's definitely a weirdo who posts a LOT about trans*, and mostly in the anime forum. Said forum is ripe for lolharvesting if this thread hasn't looked through it btw

Oh boy, Endorph. Shits up everything about any remotely Japanese media. Obsessively bitches about LGBBQ bullshit while also complaining about "How dare you criticize Japanese culture". Is almost definitely a tranny dude LARPing as a lesbian woman.
You can probably find some more material in the RPG and Shin Megami Tensei threads, and also the Fate GO one. But if someone can do digging I would definitely like a conclusive answer on "Tranny or psycho lesbian?".
 
You guys ever wonder about when (not if) SA decays enough that there won’t even be decent content or meltdowns to bother posting in this thread?

i dont know like i said earlier, after each purging you would think the mods and surviviors would be happier but they just seem to keep cranking up the outrage machine.

remember shark week? those were fun granted that was like a decade ago.

Agreed, in 2008 things were already going down the drain as Cat-Lady Modship was in full swing, but you could still post wrong-think and make fun of low-effort trannies. The tankie mods in D&D had to be a little circumspect in enforcing Maoist doctrine and couldn't out-right ban you for being a white and/or a class traitor - they had to put in the effort to puff up another reason, or bait you into modsass; not a lot of work, but some work.

In this environment, you're a conservative, you toxx for McCain, get banned, and see no reason to spend :thetenbux: to re-register and go deal with the triumphant crowing of said insufferables and being told by unemployed sadbrains what was and was not a good post.

Even if all the McCain posters hadn't been banned, its very unlikely that it would have stopped SA from ending up becoming the tranny hugbox it is now, populated by the kind of people it used to make fun of, but I think that the 2008 Toxx and the non-commie, non-tranny posters it drove off was the moment that decline became irreversible.



I don't really count the Romney Toxx. In 2012, making aRomney Toxx was an excuse. It was just a Banme for someone who couldn't be bothered to think up something clever. (Or didn't want to take selfies while they ate their own cum mixed with keyboard gunk.)



"Dear Richard acting like he's going to do anything (other than drink wine and pop Ambien), and then failing to follow through" is pretty much the condensed history of SomethingAwful.

If I ran a forum, you'd get toxxed for supporting John McCain, but modded for supporting John McCain's tumor.
