If Scott's actions causes people to not want to patronize his video games, that's Scott's fault. People are free to spend (and not spend) their money as they choose. He's not entitled to their money. If Scott's livelihood is somehow threatened by the response to his actions, perhaps he shouldn't have done it, and that's on him.I never once said someone wasn't free to condemn his choice. I said they were condemned to threatening his livelihood.
You seem to be making the argument that there's somehow something wrong with people using their conscience to decide how they want to spend money. If that's not what you're arguing, and if you're not arguing that Scott is somehow entitled to people's money regardless of his political donations, then you can drop the whining about Scott's livelihood. It would be hypocritical to say Scott can spend his money how he wants, but his fanbase doesn't have the same rights with their money.Again, you are putting words in my mouth because you, as usual, are incapable of anything BUT putting words in people's mouths. It's the #1 habit with almost every post you've done on this forum since I joined. You're adding context that isn't there. You're adding concepts that are not expressed. Because that is all you can do. And here, AGAIN, we see you do it, AGAIN, with the same lines of text, AGAIN. Please, for love of god, stop.
In other words, if a boycott is threatening someone's livelihood, that's not the fault of those participating in the boycott, and they are undeserving of condemnation. They are free to spend their money as they choose.
I've said numerous times in this thread that doxxing, harassment, etc. are unacceptable. I've never condoned these things, and I've condemned them. Please don't make things up about what I have/haven't said. Thank you.By the way, nowhere, once, in here, have you condemned the people who doxxed him, and while you condemn the doxxing, you've yet to condemn the people because it got the result YOU agree with. That is the epitome of a crooked mentality. You are embodying my whole point.
If this conversation is only about harassment and doxing, then you and I are on the same page. However, those aren't the things I'm talking about. I'm specifically responding to the hypocritical whinings about "cancel culture." People are free to criticize Scott's actions and boycott his products, and rightfully so. Scott's actions were bad.Nobody said it gives freedom from criticism. but this isn't about the criticism. It's about the doxxing, the harassment (which is not necessarily criticism), so on and so forth. but again, AND AGAIN, AND AGAIN, you try to twist what I say AND imply to make it about YOUR narrative.
I'm not putting words in your mouth. If you are going to argue that people shouldn't be boycotting Scott, then you are saying Scott is entitled to people's money despite his actions and how his fanbase feels about his actions. If you're not arguing that people shouldn't be boycotting Scott, then great. We are on the same page.I know to cancel stuff too. I stopped following Coke after their anti-White campaign and haven't looked back, because ANY form of overt racist mentality is unwelcomed in my mind. (Edit!) The difference? I ain't doxing, threatening to lynch, so on and so forth until they drop out of business entirely, I simply stopped buying their products. MAYBE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE LEFT'S GOAL WITH THE FNAF CREATOR???
Yet again, you put words in my mouth, and I am honestly tired of you trying to gaslight people, to lie to them what I and others around you say, because the only way you naturally know how to argue is to put words in peoples mouths.
As I've already said, doxxing and harassment are unacceptable behavior. That being said, calling someone out for homophobic actions like donating money to a homophobic candidate is not slander, and it's a fair criticism of Scott and his actions. Acknowledging what he did, explaining why it's bad, condemning it, boycotting his work, and suggesting others do the same is not harassment, and it's Scott's fault if that results in a loss of income.https://www.reddit.com/r/fivenightsatfreddys/comments/nybyo1/my_response_and_maybe_last_post/
"but there I was, trending on twitter for being a homophobe, getting doxed, with people threatening to come to my house"
I'm sorry, I don't see how slandering a person as a homophobe and getting doxxed DOESN'T harm their livelihood. Much less threatening to come to one's house because they share a different opinion. Maybe you've never heard of MENTAL TRAUMA/STRESS?
I haven't lied about anything you've said, and there's nothing untrue in the list of the former president's anti-LGBT behavior I posted. You are free to deny it all you want, but it would be pretty silly to do so. Most things on the list, including things like the trans military ban, are common knowledge.I'm waiting for you to provide documents. I don't believe ANYTHING you say seeing as you've lied about what I've said at least TWICE now.
If you aren't saying it isn't Scott's fault, then I'm not sure why you're condemning everyone involved other than Scott.Never said it wasn't his fault. But hey, again, you're putting words in my mouth.
I wasn't aware of this. Regardless, it looks like this wasn't mandatory training, and it wasn't Coke that said these things. It also looks like Coke responded by removing it, so I'm not sure what else you want from them.https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/366132
To quote:
"“To be less white is: to be less oppressive, to be less arrogant, to be less trusting, to be less defensive, to be less ignorant, to be more humble, to listen, to believe. , break with apathy and break with white solidarity ” ."
There's a link to the twitter post with the documents inside, which mind you, Coke has admitted existed and took them down.

If, however, you're still upset by Coke's actions, you have every right to condemn them and boycott them. The same goes for Scott's fanbase.
I'm not sure how this is relevant then. Nothing I've said in this thread, aside from condemnations, has to do with harassment and doxxing.I already answered this. Why is it so hard for you to read things as they are?
The difference? I ain't doxing, threatening to lynch, so on and so forth until they drop out of business entirely, I simply stopped buying their products. MAYBE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE LEFT'S GOAL WITH THE FNAF CREATOR???
That sounds like a personal problem. Regardless, you don't have to trust anything I've said. Go look it up yourself. All it takes is a Google Search for "trans military ban," for example, to find what you're looking for. I look up just about everything anyone posts in threads like these (I looked up your Coke claim, for example). It isn't difficult, and it's not my responsibility to do your research for you. If you want to be able to come up with a substantive response to anything I've posted, you have to do the work yourself. Speaking of which, if you do respond to this post, please respond to it directly or tag me in it. Otherwise, I might not see your response. I almost didn't see this one, but fortunately for you, I was in the thread rereading my own posts.Sources. FOIA Requests, Court Documents, Investigative reports released by police agencies. I trust absolutely nothing out of you as a person.
State governments aren't beholden to the president of the United States, and with regard to federal charges, the Biden/Garland justice department is still going through with hundreds charges against people who committed crimes during BLM protests.Where's the federal charges for all the looters/arsonists/etc as their charges were dismissed by Portland and New York, following Biden taking office?
You should turn off the Fox News every once in awhile. Discussions like these aren't fun when we live on two different Earths.
Biden has condemned all of the things you say he hasn't, before and after the 2020 election. Oof.As you said, by not condemning those who are doing such actions, they themselves are condoning the actions. Isn't that how it works? Because IN YOUR OWN WORDS:
Violence against LGBT people abroad occurred in part because the former administration explicitly refused to condemn it, and violence against LGBT people in this country occurred in large part because the former administration refused to talk about it or do anything about it.
Lemme reword this for you:
Violence, murder, looting, arson against people abroad occurred in part because the current administration explicitly refused to condemn it, and such against people in this country occurred in large part because the current administration refuses to talk about it or do anything about it.
Last I checked, Biden never responded to white supremist protests by saying "there are good people on both sides." Biden didn't cause a deadly riot on the Capitol. Biden didn't tell the Proud Boys to "stand down and standby."Same difference. They like Trump can pass off a light 'plz don't do this', like how Trump gave his half-assed request for the Proud Boys to 'stand down'. But until Biden begins pushing for Federal cases against the Arsonists and the sort, he's spewing platitudes.
And Biden's justice department is indeed continuing to pursue federal charges against some of the people who committed crimes during the BLM protests.
Before I respond to anything else you say, please post the #1 best example of something I've said about "Republicans" that also applies to "Democrats." Please and thank you.Wow, you really are incapable of realizing just how narrow your entire worldview is. You don't realize that everything you've said about the Republicans ALSO applies to the Democrats.
Each person is different, and there are going to be people in one group (LGBT, for example) who vote against LGBT interests. However, that is not the same as saying they shouldn't vote for LGBT interests. They should. Everybody should vote in favor of civil rights.I am very amused that if you are from this or that "community" you should vote yes or yes for a specific candidate.
If you are Gay it does not make you part of the LGBT community.
If you are a Woman, it does not make you part of the Feminist community.
Each person is different, do not try to group the thought by gender, sexuality or race.
If a person is gay, it does not automatically make them a part of the LGBT community. However, if a person is gay and identifies as gay, then that person is a member of the LGBT community. That doesn't mean, however, that the person has to agree with the broader LGBT community on anything whatsoever.
