Gosh, i feel like such a bonehead expecting people to be able to think for themselves and correctly interpret a clearly defined statement without having to delve into meticulous detail so theres no margin of error left save a tiny mousehole in the corner that they'll find anyway.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662208]"Racism/Extremism is normal, so this means nothing." Say this instead of wasting my time looking for shit. You would've said the same thing if I looked for a /pol/ article.[/QUOTE] did you really have to do fucking research to find out some people are racist assholes??????
[QUOTE=AaronM202;50662229]Here we go again. No, my point was, theres always fringe individuals with loud voices. Always will be. Always has. They complain about everything and anything, always have, always will, always do. You pointed out an example of that, its nothing special. People LIKE Kamala Khan. You're wrong. Admit it.[/QUOTE] bro people on [I]JIHADWATCH[/I] and /pol/ don't like her your argument is invalid
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662232]I'll be real here and say that I don't read your statements. If I see another stupid accusation from you, I ignore it. Sometimes a question is between those stupid accusations, so that's my fault. Do you mean the people here, or the people on the internet? I already addressed the people here. I was but the main meaning behind those complains was to point out the hypocrisy, which I explained before.[/QUOTE] If you're going to ignore every single post anyone posts here, then why are you here? At this point, since you are ignoring every single post and doing nothing except vaguely insulting people, you are pretty much just flaming at this point. [B]Is there even a remote possibility that you are reading my posts incorrectly? That maybe you're wrong and I'm not just making stupid accusations?[/B] [B]By your own omission, you already misinterpreted somebodies post and thought they were racist against the black version of Nick Fury when they weren't. Is it possible that you're doing that again here?[/B] [B]How come everyone can understand this and you can't? Are you smarter than everyone else in this thread or is there even a remote possibility you could be misinterpreting something?[/B] Please tell me if you are going to ignore this post.
[QUOTE=-nesto-;50662245]bro people on [I]JIHADWATCH[/I] and /pol/ don't like her your argument is invalid[/QUOTE] Y'know, i clicked the links he sent, read it, saw the site names even, but it didnt hit me until you pointed it out that as an example of normal people being outraged at a fictional characters race was a fucking site called JIHADWATCH. Oh wow i genuinely burst out laughing, thats fucking gold.

[QUOTE=Zyler;50662215]That's not what Aaron was saying, [b]you are misinterpreting people's posts.[/b] One or two people being idiots and getting upset on twitter is not a significant backlash. It's like how one or two people on twitter call for white people to be killed and it's "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS GONE MAD" (that was sarcasm, btw). I'm gonna keep saying this until you get it or the thread gets closed.[/QUOTE] Your loss. You're here until the thread closes. I disagree with every accusation. I posted a news article about the controversy but apparently that doesn't count. [QUOTE=Pretiacruento;50662231]Racism, /pol/... why do you keep labeling people who share a different opinion than yours as an average /pol/ acolyte? This is what I mean, right here. "Everyone who doesn't think like me must be a /pol/ shitposter". Your mental gymnastics are on point.[/QUOTE] He specifically mentioned /pol/ as an option that I could bring up. This is a non-issue.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662276] I posted a news article about the controversy but apparently that doesn't count. [/QUOTE] you posted jihadwatch and theburningbloggerofbedlam that definitely isn't news and that definitely doesn't count
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662276]Be clear and actually say that in the first place before you scoff at a legitimate news article. If you dismiss a news article, then I'm not going to know what you want.[/QUOTE] What, a single half-line in an article saying "oh btw some people got mad i guess"? Again, laughable. Please dont tell me you meant fucking [b]JIHADWATCH[/b] as said legitimate news article.

I'm trying to reason with you and you've done nothing but ignore me and call me stupid.

Maybe you just don't understand how your posts come off to other people, but at this point it feels like you genuinely hate me and are deliberately cutting off any attempt to communicate.[/QUOTE] I don't think I called you stupid. Can you show me where I called you stupid so I can admit that I'm wrong. And like I said for the third time, I'm not ignoring your posts out of spite. Once again, I'm ignoring the parts of your posts that I've already addressed because I can't be bothered to repeat myself. Which is hypocritical because now I've had to repeat myself 3 times to get the point across that I don't hate you.

You keep claiming that I'm making stupid accusations (and by doing so, calling me stupid) at you when in reality I've repeatedly tried to point out how your posts keep misinterpreting other people in order to have a problem with them. You did it just now with Aaron's post about fringe voices which you misinterpreted as "racism/bigotry is normal". Please try to reason with me here, I'm not trying to be the bad guy. I just want you to understand what I'm saying.
why would you care if ROFLBURGER hated you tbh
[QUOTE=Arc Nova;50662333]why would you care if ROFLBURGER hated you tbh[/QUOTE] I care if anybody hates me. I'm trying to be reasonable.

Alright so it's a bit of a stretch to think that me calling an accusation stupid = me calling you stupid. I don't think you're stupid, I just really think your accusations are stupid. It's like cooking something that isn't very good, the food isn't very good but it doesn't meant that you as a person aren't very good.

[QUOTE=Arc Nova;50662391]nah I tried to leave but the massive density of your skull sucked me right back in specifically this post[/QUOTE] did you actually think i was referring to jihadwatch did you actually ignore the post where i actually refer to them as extremist blogs [QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662128]Do you want me to post blogs? The only people who are reporting on this issue area left wing blogposts from news website and right-wing extremist sites. Non-Bias news outlets don't care about shit like that, and if they do (The Times cares because it's new york) then they usually briefly touch on it.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662424] did you actually ignore the post where i posted a news site article[/QUOTE] Ah yes, the news article that spends 60% of it talking about FemThor and literally mentions how the guy behind Kamala thought he'd get assblasted but instead recieved kind words from people who liked the character, ooh what a shitstorm.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662424] did you actually ignore the post where i posted a news site article[/QUOTE] that news article still has nothing to do with why people don't like Iron Woman [editline]7th July 2016[/editline] Honestly you could make Jackie Chan black and it turns out Jackie Chan was just a title all along I should call Jackie Chan
Do you know why Kamal Khan was accepted where Jane Foster, Riri Williams, and others werent? Carol Danvers, former Ms. Marvel, the only Ms. Marvel (save one or two brief replacements when she was Binary), was promoted to Captain Marvel. She moved up and assumed a role that had been vacant for about a decade or two, which left her role vacant. So they filled the vacancy. Add onto that, that the character is competently written and drawn, and no shit people dont have a problem with it. You're, again, wrong about the race shit.
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50661979]Some people flipped their fucking shit when Ms. Marvel was released. [/QUOTE] [QUOTE=AaronM202;50662001]Dont tell me.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662469]did you actually ignore the entire conversation[/QUOTE] Yeah I really don't see anybody "flipping their fucking shit?"
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;50662469]did you actually ignore the entire conversation[/QUOTE] PSSSST. You should read the article, then maybe you might understand why he's saying that.
Also want to point out something about that article [quote]The push for diverse characters expanded well beyond Thor. In the past two years, Alonso and his team have launched [b]16 new titles starring women.[/b] One of the most significant moves was transferring the mantle of Captain Marvel, a hero who first appeared in 1967 to the Carol Danvers character, who had been toiling in the understudy role of Ms. Marvel.[/quote] Funny how we haven't heard much about the 16 titles starring women Could it possibly be because they aren't replacing already established characters thus not having a chance to shine???
Tbh, I should've left this conversation minute 0. I'm frequently having to readdress my points, and no one's opinion is ever going to change on the issues. I'm the only person arguing now, most people have left to do other things and I should probably do the same. Here's my post to end all posts. - Going off by the arguments in here, there are no people who are upset simply because the new iron man is now a black woman. - Going off by the arguments in here, no one in this thread is a racist or a bigot. - I have misinterpreted the intentions of the jokes in here. If I post in here again, call me out.
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;50660515]the entire point of Raiden was how weird and awkward it was that this femmy platinum blonde whino was taking the role of Solid Snake. I think people who are attached to certain characters just don't appreciate it when the writers say "remember that old herodude you like? he was boring, so we made a new herodude who's completely different. Please forget about the old one, this is the new herodude." [/QUOTE] But tony stark is still gonna be in the comic? In fact hes going to be directly tied to her, so how is this "remember that old herodude you like? he was boring, so we made a new herodude who's completely different. Please forget about the old one, this is the new herodude." which makes this [QUOTE]Even then, that was still different. Snake himself showed up a bit ways through, and Raiden was designed to make you appreciate and respect Snake even more than you otherwise normally would.[/QUOTE] kinda funny because this sounds exactly what theyre doing with this new Iron Man

You're taking a character that people like, and replacing them with a character that people don't give a fuck about, and you're telling them "care about this one now". Except unlike with MGS2, there is no greater purpose or message. It's just annoying.
