Let's cut out the bullshit
"the comic-book T&A pose isn't gratuitous! Anyone would naturally stand that way rather than turn to face the camera!" and yes, I know her T are obstructed and answer to the concrete accusations you vomited at me in your previous post.
Strawmanning you by stating that you were mad at Blizzard.What. Never said anything of that kind.
Ascribing to you an opinion that "you never said". Which opinion I can't be sure, but it entails Blizzard making changes because someone else told them to.Ooh, now I can see the conflation you "accidentally" made in your previous point. See, I was referring to your well-publicized opinion that what the person behind Bnet username Flipps did was bad and wrong and an attempt at public shaming deserving of a moral outrage by your gamer friends. But you somehow took it as attributing to you an accusation against BLIZZARD, that they did bend to the aforementioned attempt at "censorship" rather than coming to this decision of their own free will. Believe me, I know very well that you are much more concerned about the ethics of private individuals expressing their views than those of multinational profit-maximizing license-whoring AAA Skinner box sellers.
Claiming that the butt-pose is aggressive.Did you even read what I wrote? I was talking about Winston. Where in your ass did you even pull THAT from?
Misrepresenting TB's point that "the complainer was seeing something that wasn't there".And how, exactly, is the video supposed to lead us to that point? I mean, Winston IS acting in a starkly different way from his usual characterisation. If there weren't actual, character-related reasons for him to act this way, TB could have used this argument to make the point that... female characters aren't the only ones who get mischaracterized for the sake of fanservice, sexual or otherwise? I don't know, it's still better than, well,
nothing. This is no satire material but it could have been the base for a decent spoof. Instead TB gave us a pastiche, and a bad one at that.
So, what do I have conclude? That TB's video was actually intended as complete mindless preaching to the choir, rather than trying and failing to make a point through humor? You don't say.
Strawmanning you again with the "literally Anita" segment.Hyperbole. Which is a figure of style rather than a logical fallacy, and can be distinguished from strawman arguments by being all but impossible to take literally in context. You love your fallacies, don't you? And I mean it in more than one way.
"Dishonest?" I'm not the one putting words in other people's mouths.Yep, you can add "putting words in other people's mouths" and "hypocrisy" to the list of intellectual sins you committed in just the two posts that I addressed.
This is the last time I address you directly. As a lurker, I tend to post only when I have something to say that I feel wasn't already expressed by the active forum members in an adequate way. This happens rarely, and for some reason you're almost always involved. The thing is, for the past year or so I've been increasingly unwilling to talk
to you, preferring to talk to anyone might hear
about you and the garbage you spew. And now with this "ultimate" quote barrage from your paragonic part, I think you lost the modicum of respect that I was still treating you with.
EDIT: Oh, one last thing. As a lurker, I often think you have some good points. I would even say I agree more with you than with any other member on certain threads. You've been the main motivator for my posting for the past 2 years or so, but at the same time, you are one of the reasons I don't have a lot to say on other topics. I don't despise you because of some radical opposition to your ideas and worldviews. I despise you because... well, if you really want to know why, I'll just let you notice the pattern in my ad homs. You are no "intellectual", as you fancy yourself as, but you're not an idiot either. I'm sure you can do it yourself. If you care.
