Yeah, you guys are right. If someone has one opinion that you disagree with, then screw them. They're a horrible peron. I'm sure you or someone you like/respect/care for has never had an opinion you disagree with.
I think the only reason he was mentioned was because the ESA released a statement after his death. I don't think it was necessary to really go into what they thought about the guy on a personal level, but it's their show. I just try to ignore that stuff. Personally I think Justice Scalia deserves a little more respect, but again, it's not my show, so I try to ignore it.
It weird how I felt this was coming. I'm really sadden to see you leave, Patrick. I didn't always agree with your stances on or prescriptions for things going on in the industry, but that's one thing I liked about you and I am going to miss you for that. I've always enjoyed your content and I loved how you brought something that no one else at GB had.
I'll still continue to follow you. I wish you the best. Thank you for everything you've done and the games and people you've introduced me to over the years. It's been a pleasure. <>
@cabbagesensei I'll reply here since the podcast page has been locked. But yes, they have. No one has said it in those exact words, but the constant crying about a lack of non-white dudes is always happening. The constant bemoaning of white people being a part of a site is just getting old. Just let the guys who started and who run this website do whatever they want. I highly doubt that diversity in terms of skin color or genitals is something that any of them think about...at least I hope they don't. Because that stuff shouldn't matter. All anyone should focus on is the person's personality and what they can offer. And just being a different color or different sex does not equal true diversity.
The idea that the mere presence of any person who isn't a white male at GB will somehow automatically make the site better is one of the most disgusting ideas that seems to have unfortunately invaded and poisoned the the gaming industry. Just because someone isn't white or doesn't have a penis, that doesn't mean they have something better or more interesting to say.
I'm not that familiar with Dan or Jason, but if Jeff and the other guys thought they were the best fit, then I'm sure they made the right decision. Sorry they're white and have a penis. GB must be a bunch of sexist racists, right?
I'll keep refuting these as they come, but NO ONE said that.
The part most people forget is that Jesus made good on that promise.
People use that quote incorrectly all the time. I know that isn't what this post is exactly about, but Jesus had no issues with calling a sin, a sin.
Regardless of the Bible, telling someone not to judge is hypocritical, because telling someone not to judge is, in and of itself, a judgement. Any time you start a sentence with “you shouldn’t,” whatever comes next will constitute a judgement of some kind. Saying, “you shouldn’t judge,” is like saying, “there are no absolutes.”
