I feel like spending 8 hours deconstructing someone's argument (which already drags for 2 hours) is time that could be better spent playing other games you actually enjoy.

8 hours plus editing time, so really more like 20 hours bare minimum, assuming this isn't just some stream vod.

~~it's more than that
i occasionally watch the guy
his video essays are months of work ususally~~

edit: just realised you were talking about the other guy lmao
i was half asleep when i posted this

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

So wait, judging by the people saying MATN is cool also, both the guys in this video exchange are cool and ok and this fash is just gloming on to one of them that matches his video game taste lmao? Weird.

Also this reminds me of when a friend linked a response to Hbomb's DS2 video and I checked the whole page first and saw sus shit there. Like I know that video has mixed opinions even from Hbomb but I wish someone not weird would respond to it. Im sure it exists, maybe not as a direct response to Hbomb though. Anyway just ranting about a thing in my brain.

to be clear i was talking about matn
i have no idea who the other one is

i should not post while sleepy lol

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Ah ok. Well I'm subbed to the other guy on Youtube already and I assume there's a reason for that, and from a quick scan he seems like a normal fellow. No reactionairy clickbait. Just a guy who's really obsessive (and probably ND) about Fallout. So it does seem like a chud just glommed on to him for agreeing with an opinion that many leftists hold.

There needs to be reeducation camps for gmers. We need to commit cultural genocide on gmers.

No, no it's okay that I said he argues "like a jew", Goebbels said...

[-] usernamesaredifficul@hexbear.net 46 points 1 year ago

oh well if Goebbels said it it can't be antisemitic

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

...is the Nazi guy bragging in his username about being 6 foot (~=180 cm) lol

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

Might be a reference to killing people

Exactly what sort of pernicious lies would he even be telling about Fallout 3? That he liked it? Dude shoe horned in a goebbels quote just to slander jews. Or am I missing the point too?

[-] usernamesaredifficul@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

no no no he hates Jews and thinks that Jews want to encourage the playing of videogames he dislikes.

This is as rational as you can expect antisemites to be. I've even heard "Jews kicked me off the bus for being drunk and trying to fight the driver"

if an antisemite stubs their toe upon a rock they will say "what Jew put that rock where my toe would strike it"

Sir you are clearly committing a No True Scotsman fallacy as outlined in this treatise by Oskar Dirlewanger

"Ad hominem, attacking the interlocutor!" Cried Direlwanger as his Polish prison guards beat him mercilessly.

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

gonna make an ai that creates a gibberish response to this just so that itll troll him into making a 16 hour response video

[-] moujikman@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

Interesting linguistic history: the strategy was to label everything that was bad as Jewish. It wasn't the other way around where everything a Jewish person does is wrong/bad. If chickens didn't lay enough eggs then it was considered Jewish (or Non-aryan). So any piece of literature is immediate nonsense because the words just don't have the same meaning. It was an attempt at two-value orientation, so it would just evoke a good/bad or right/wrong response without any further thought. You still see this today with stuff like how American politicians talk about China, same sex marriage, immigration from mexico, etc.

[-] RION@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago

I love Jon/MATN so much, watching his Fallout 4 YOLO as I do my own survival mode playthrough. This is a very icky juxtaposition

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Once I got used to the routine of packing for a mission, balancing supplies vs scavenging space, deciding on every round of ammo and ounce of weight, making tactical plans to clear locations...I found I just couldnt go back to playng regular haha cool robot mode.

I liked that lack of fast travel meant that bringing power armor up to where I would need it became it's own mission, like I was transporting a tank to the front. Just not being able to teleport, quicksave, or carry 400 pounds and having to get around and survive like a real person made me care so much more about the playthrough, and made every sucessful mission and built up settlement feel more real and hard-earned.

[-] RION@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

It certainly makes the shooting, looting, and building elements more harmonious.

No fast travel is a bit too tedious for me though. I got a mod the enables fast travel between settlements connected by a supply line which encourages strategic settlement use even further

[-] Gosplan14_the_Third@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

The Fallout 3 rarities series he did recently was great

[-] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

MaTN is such nice, wholesome YouTuber. He doesn't even curse in his videos. Hate to see him dragged into the muck of Twitter discourse

[-] Coolkidbozzy@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

Biden is so old that he might remember the Nakba

[-] KittyBobo@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago
[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

He would actually appreciate that joke while acknowledging how problematic it is. MATN is as far as I know one of the non-shit gaming streamers/you tubers

[-] Gosplan14_the_Third@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Yeah, he's alright as far as gamer politics go. Most likely a socdem, but at least not a rabid chud like is way too common.

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Being a product of an elite classics department will likely do that to you. He's a very vocal ally for Trans rights so he has my respect.
