The Humble 'Female Protagonist Sale' is live, with some awesome Linux games

Quoting: ElectricPrismIn the name of equality I wonder if people would have been outraged if Humble Bundle had a "Male Protagonist Sale"
And then again how can anyone be sure whether the game's protagonist actually identifies as "female" by the game makers even though "looking like a female" ... :D

We live in a time of great change and such times always include some insanity which will pass in time. Some real life people change their gender identification in their heads each week you know.

Quoting: kalinPlease don't bring that feminist bullshit here. Ofcourse there is more male characters. Dota is game of war not virtual family game
I too as a woman find this modern "feminism movement" nothing more than actually a harmful thing for women. It most def. does not advocate true equality when you think about it but quite the opposite :/

Project Contingency was created under Microsoft's "Game Content Usage Rules" using assets from Halo. It's not endorsed by Microsoft and does not reflect the views or opinions of Microsoft or anyone officially involved in producing or managing Halo.
Yes, yes..

Just bumped into this looking about Tannenberg. Are these guys for real? Couldn't be bothered to listen through.

"Racism In Online Video games"

"This week, post-Turkey-Day, we take a long hard look at the single biggest factor preventing us from playing (the otherwise excellent sequel to "Verdun"), "Tannenberg." The answer: in-game online white supremacy"

Quoting: heidi.wengerI hear that neo-liberals think it's pretty natural to identify as a different gender or sexual orientation every other year, even week or so? Extreme ones now even demand their own toilets for whatever that identification might be inside head that time?
Literally not one single word of this paragraph is true. Liam, can we get an ignore button in here?
Elaborate please? Liberals have demanded individual toilets in USA for example, and it is in consideration in some states. Powerful stuff! Why would you want "an ignore button" ?

Or just the common mindset of liberals? Yet they won't tolerate you if you're conservative enough to disagree with them :whistle:
Tolerating intolerance is a different category from tolerating groups such as (other races, other genders, other sexual orientations). Cases for or against the two of them need to be made separately. This should be obvious to conservatives, since they typically don't tolerate (various groups of people) but do tolerate intolerance. In fact, it's actually quite difficult to hold the same stance on the two cases--how, for instance, would one both be intolerant of other races and intolerant of intolerance?

So the "liberals are so inconsistent/hypocritical because they tolerate eg gays but don't tolerate us" argument is basically facetious, a cute "zinger" meant to annoy the unwary but with nothing behind it. It's like saying that because you tolerate sushi, to be consistent you have to also tolerate swearing.

Note that this comment says nothing about the relative merits of "liberalism" or "conservatism" in themselves, I'm just pointing out the illogic of a particular argument I see too often.
I hear that neo-liberals think it's pretty natural to identify as a different gender or sexual orientation every other year, even week or so? Extreme ones now even demand their own toilets for whatever that identification might be inside head that time?

I also hear that the original liberalism of the 19th century (?) was dealing with things more truly constructive and scientific too?

I think whether one is far-left alt-left or far-right alt-right or something even between, has been conditioned towards a path towards more division of man, usually leading up in violence in the end. That's what the actual "powers that be" want? To make you fight amongst ourselves because once you get violent they know how to handle us.

"Nation or no-nation". "Religious or atheist" etc. Focus and attention is still fixed on something common..
