how many librarians really on this forum?

[countrymike84 72]

I was posting on the RDR2 general chat and I had someone call my views terrible as a conservative. Here is the thing. Rockstar is a company that is very anti-pc and that is not the MO of a your average liberal or Democrat. They want to be PC as possible. I just don't understand why liberals will gravitate toward a game company that doesnt apologize for its white male protagonists. Are the liberals on this forum more of the centrist JFK types or the P-hat wearing protesting types? If the former, I would understand but the latter, is that defeatism? Do you secretly acknowledge that the gaming status quo is what most gamers want and this SJW stuff is just passe(I hope)

This should be fun. 🍿

Remember those times where games were means to escape bullsh*t reality such as politics and weren't interpreted or judged as political agendas with tons of buzzwords?

 

Those were the days.

Mac and Me

 

It's been too long. They told us they would be back. However, they never came. We have been waiting a long time. It's possible that they drank too much Coca Cola which is a sh*tty beverage for us to drink let along space penis creatures with blowjob mouths.

 

 

Are they too liberal or politically correct? I do not believe so. I believe they, like us,....enjoyed the 1980's so much that it would be no longer a joy for the MAC family to come back to visit us. Not in this time. Too many people with messed up beliefs and they probably know we ditched Ronald McDonald. Who by the way is the only person on the planet who can communicate with the MACS.

 

 

"See you in your dreams girly boy"

 

 

In the end we may never see the MACS again. But let me promise this. They are not liberal nor do they care about social warriors. They do care about justice and I think that alone makes me glad they came in the first place. Maybe one day we too can be that way.

Is this guy for real or...?

[Mr. Scratch 11,108]

We don't like yer kind round here. 

[Agent 14 2,299]

Can we keep the politics talk away from the forums? As far as I know it never ends well. And it starts flame wars etc.

This is not entirely false, just look at how sh*tty the PC port for IV was, how late V's was, and how RDR didn't even get a PC port! At this rate, who knows if RDR2 will get one.

[Mr. Scratch 11,108]

Yes, but MP3 tho.

[Pocket Fox 6,152]

Conservative and Liberal political views aren't the problem.

 

People who assign conservative and liberal political views to ANYTHING and EVERYTHING are the problem.

No, they are not. Otherwise Rockstar wouldn't bother to issue a statement in support of the PC community that enjoy modding their single player games. 

Rockstar's concern was only limited to the use of mods in Online. 

So they are against the use of any cheats or mods in Online, and not against PC entirely 

You didn't mention why do you think Rockstar are anti PC?

 

 

Lmao

white male protagonists

Never mind the other 4 black\Hispanic protagonists (CJ, Vic, Luis, and Franklin) and certain notable gay characters. I think it would be more accurate to describe R* as apolitical.

 

They don't care about gender issues and other political issues and honestly they don't have to. Make your own game if you want to send some sort of political message. R* is only interested in creating stories that are interesting to them.

[chronic lumbago 3,051]

Yes I wonder too. There are many libraries on this forum. So many databases here. I studied the entire know your neighbours topic.

No love for Huang?

No, I hate Asians.

I’m not a librarian, but I did read your mom like a pop-up book last night 

[Zello 11,119]

This is R* official stance on politics and all political topics.

[wilmanwdk 25]

Unfortunately I'm not a librarian and I'll probably never become one, but it looks like a nice job to me. I mean, people who visit libraries are usually really nice and you get to work with those people. Also, for a bookworm like me, what can be better than spending a whole day surrounded by walls of books? So it's great if we actually have librarians on this forum, maybe they can tell us something about their job.

[Mr. Scratch 11,108]

The librarians are here!

 

[Forty 760]

I guess he didn't want to come back and answer for any of his accusations.

[chronic lumbago 3,051]

On topic, DOOM Eternal is racist and anti-immigration. Bethesda are disgusting developers for making us brutally murder those poor demons.

[Moonshield 9,919]

My partner's a librarian, so I'm sort of one by proxy. We got lots of books!

[K^2 2,047]

A real liberal defends another person's right to hold politically-incorrect opinions. Of course, there's difference between holding an opinion and abuse, and nobody should tolerate the later.

 

There are way too many hypocrites in the world. Liberals who do not respect others' liberties and conservatives who do not respect tradition and values. I'm glad we have R* to poke fun at both in equal measure.

Curious; by what law of nature is it written that we have to "respect others liberties" when those liberties in question may be objectively oppressive and/or harmful?

Can liberals not also have "respect" for "tradition and values" while simultaneously challenging those which are clearly outdated and incompatible with the 21st century?

 

Please try not to answer too loudly. I don't want to get kicked out of the library.
