  • I’ll give you that, and the swastika and manji came to mind. I’d originally included in my post the suggestion about going and putting up swastikas and was like, “wait… That’s still a thing.”

    I get that it’s a Norse rune and I recognize the history and heritage in the same way, but in that case maybe just one ᛋ would have sufficed. However, considering someone thought enough to say, “Hey, this is going to be problem in Germany.” it would have hurt literally no one to just say, “maybe we just shouldn’t do it at all.” Deleted. Literally no controversy.

    Instead… here we are.


  • Wow… I really don’t buy those excuses…

    They literally admit to seeing the problem before distribution, but instead of just deleting them from the email, they decide to just not include the place where it would get them into the most legal trouble instead?

    Uh… No… That’s not an accident anymore. There’s no oopsie there.

    Then they go and double down on reddit by giving the excuse that the symbol has been around way longer than it’s modern historical use, so we shouldn’t stop using it because someone corrupted it?

    No, that’s not how it works.

    Things get ruined and they take on new meanings, that includes words and symbols. You don’t just get to decide that you’re going to take back the symbol of some of the worst evil mankind has known just because it had another meaning before that and then expect everyone to be like, “Oh, alright…” It has a new meaning now. One that everyone recognizes… A meaning that it is blatantly apparent they were aware of beforehand and decided to use anyway.

    Anyone buying that bullshit excuse is an idiot.

    Fuck GoG.

    No worries, dude, I get it. I’ve had my work taken before. It’s nice someone liked it enough, but it kinda sucks a lot when you worked hard and they can’t or won’t even mention your name.

    It makes me itch a little bit when I see that someone hasn’t even put their name on their own art. Like, take some pride in it!

    Alright then… Supreme Court docket

    1. Mr. Trump sexually abused Ms. Carroll? YES X NO____

    Here’s some Wikipedia reading

    Verdict and aftermath (January 2024–present) edit

    On January 26, 2024, the jury deliberated for three hours and awarded Carroll $7.3 million in emotional damages, $11 million in reputation-related damages, and $65 million in punitive damages, totaling $83.3 million.[246] The jury found Trump had committed sexual abuse and forcible touching, two of the three elements of Carroll’s battery claim.[248] Trump said he would appeal.[249]

    And let’s not forget this classic gem

    You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful—I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it, you can do anything … grab them by the pussy.
