ewwphoria is a real thing. Quite hilarious to see some homophobe say "you'll always be a man. You'll never be a woman!! 😡😡" on a trans dudes post
amazing to see the onion do an article on this 🥰 10/10
I shouted gaaaaayyy at my friend and their boyfriend once when they were being cute together. It was funny how it annoyed them and made em happy at the same time.
back in the 90s, "that is so gay" was used as a pejorative, to express displeasure. at lesbian game night, whenever any of our meeples are next to each other on the board it's usually a race to see who gets to say it (in our best Lumpy Space Princess voice) first.
This isn't satire, this is just true, lmao
Well, at least I think like this. If I'm gonna be called slurs, at least have them be the right ones, lmao
Even got the same first name to boot
Literally me, I feel you
You joke, but I've seen and heard about similar situations of misogynists being weirdly trans inclusive.
People call that "gender ewwphoria".
There was a subreddit called accidental ally or something like that with tons of posts like this
Ya know this reminds me of a story
I remember the Early Days of Gamergate when it wasn't obvious that it was just Milo Yiannaopolus recruiting for the Neo Nazis.
Back when they actually stuck to the story of holding Game Journalists accountable for poor reporting.
I joined up and was actually kicked out because the guy in charge of the chapter for it took one look at me and said "Sorry honey, this is for gamers, not lonely females looking for boyfriends. GET OUT!"
I was pissed at the time, but I realized I dodged a fucking bullet.
Honestly I was in /r/kotakuinaction and mocked games journos for a bit, but after a while I just quickly noticed the nazis lurking around and bailed. Plus, the posts were just becoming more and more whiny, and from there I just thought "yeah everyone's here a fucking loser, I'm out".
Thankfully that realization made me slide away from the alt-right pipeline, nowadays I'm an anarchy-aligned libertarian socialist :)
Yeah, hating on AAA games released where it is immediately apparent that half of the game was cut because they wanted to make some marketing deadline and they cut half the dev team the previous year for cost savings is justified. Calling out journos being bought with better access or straight up bribes is also justified. Games with content that is "pandering" without fleshing the world out, which should be insulting to the people being represented as well in a "hey fellow gays buy our game" is also bad.
But these people were upset with random single-dev games about mental health? It's simply unfathomably stupid. Also, harassing anyone, game dev or journo is also pathetic.
How to avoid Nazis: if you find yourself surrounded by losers, leave.
I mean I've always hated Nazis, so as soon as I noticed their rhetoric was becoming commonplace I fucked off.
I've been through enough bozos on both side who are so fascist in their mindset that Horseshoe Theory is fact to me
So yeah.. Anarchy Aligned Socialism sounds good to me. No death camps no gulags
Yes yes yes no... yes...?
Gender uwuphoria
When reached for comment, Meadows’s teammate, a 15-year-old called x_MrMisogyny_x, had this to say:
“Girls are just worse at video games. It’s like, biological. When I hear a girl in my team chat, I try to make her quit, ‘cuz she’s just not supposed to be there. Gaming is for men, like me.” MrMisogyny had further comments, but was interrupted by his mother calling him downstairs for dinner.
Lol! Priceless.
Transinclusive misogyny is the ally we didn't know we needed.
Women are so bad at being women men had to show them how.
i ate the onion for way too long, even googling her name to find a video of the clip 😂 i'm so sorry

Wonderful.
This was 100% how I felt when I played Dota more.
Plus, it makes the toxic people I'm probably going to mute later reveal themselves immediately!
For posting satire from The Onion and other similar sources.
redundancy, but not for its own sake
Be nice. All instance rules apply.
