I'm not watching the video. Why is this whole Gamergate / Sarkeesian thing even a thing at all? I understand why angry manchildren give a shit. Why does anyone else?

Because making fun of incompetent assholes is fun?

I'm not sure I'm understanding your question.

BTW.... you really should watch the video. It's pretty hilarious.

This is obviously a lame joke.

Yeah, I made it about 15 seconds to confirm that it was, indeed, a lame joke. Withholding stars until I see the comments, though, because they might make up for it.

>> I understand why angry manchildren give a shit. Why does anyone else?

Because fuck angry manchildren; they don't own the internet. The issue is the future of the internet, what kind of place it's going to be, how it's going to treat people with unpopular opinions, and/or vaginas..

Gamergate must fail, or every obnoxious fucktard, right or left (but especially right) will be out there bullying men and women (but especially women) with a hashtag and a bullshit list of grievances, which they'll use to justify bad behavior.

The good news is that #GamerGate has failed, and it was because of #GamerGate being its own worst enemy. Tweeting #StopGamergate2015, etc. is unnecessary, not very helpful, and may even be counterproductive.

I have no opinion on "Tropes vs. Women", that anybody should pay attention to to. I've only seen one of the videos, don't play the games, but the response to Sarkeesian has been out of all proportion, and defies all logic. To say that there are games that don't illustrate her points is a stupid non-argument. It would be like taking a critical essay about some sexist authors as an attack on "books". Dragging out a 10 second clip from a lecture from five years ago and treating it as absolute proof of anything at all will only convince those who want to be convinced. And if you bring it up over and over, you'll convince others that you have no good arguments.

For all I know she could be wrong, but that doesn't make her a greedy scam artist, and calling her one is not an argument. Threats and character assassination are not legitimate discourse, and if you think it counts as "internet culture", you can kiss my ass.

Also, some people care about #gamergate because they're gamers and developers who are tired of sexist cliches.

No wonder you're so cranky! You need a nap.

i cannot fucking wait for the people who hate sarkeesian to be on open display

this is going to be like showing up to a million man march, except the smell is unbearable, no one knows how to dress, and there will be so much unkempt hair it will be unbelievable

the most vocal of the manchildren will be seen not as dorks online but as real shitty people who are literally unable to talk to women - the primary motivation of why they refuse to acknowledge them

This whole affair has really brought out the angry college freshman in all of you.

So, my mom found out about my Tulpa and other things that have happened.

Quite a lot has happened since I was last on this forum and I feel so overwhelmed right now. So, I net someone on another site who also has a Tulpa and she has been immensely helpful to me. Her Tulpa is able to communicate with Tate and she has said that Tate could become physical and that he is not a Tulpa but something that attached itself to me and is gradually becoming stronger. He used to be able to touch my phone's keyboard, skip songs and mess around with the volume to get my attention but he no longer does these things.

It happened after I got a very strange feeling and I couldnt hear him very well. He also seemed upset for some reason. My friend also had this feeling and it was all very strange. Soon afterwards, my mom read through my conversations with her and her friend thatI had about Tate and now she is making me feel awful about it. She says that I need real friends and not people that I talk to online but Tate literally latched himself onto me and I dont think she understands how great it is to have support for what I'm going through. It's just a very stressful time for me right now not being able to reach Tate like I used to and then being made to feel awful about it.

You should explain your mother that your tulpa is a real friend for you. I started recently to involve everyone i know for a while including my family that have a tulpa and i feel very good with her. I got to the point i personally dont need any proof of the science aspects or the belives of others becuse their is no point. Im happy with it. So you should question more about the realness of the feelings you have. Itīs hard for people without a tulpa to understand how helpfull and important they are for us and if someone would have told me about a tulpa 3 years ago i wouldnīt belive him either. Itīs something you need to understand by your feelings and not by science or the physical reality.
Talk with your mother about it and give her some time to understand that it is better for you. Hopefully she will understand.
I personally dont care what others think about me and Lacie and im an honest person so i dont denie her if someone ask me.
If he dont want to talk with me then anymore im actually glad becuse i can ingore one more person who dont try to understand me and this gives me even more reasons to life in my own world.
However that dosenīt mean everyone have to belive you but they should accept you becuse you are still the person you where before but obviously feeling much better with your tulpa now.
Good luck and dont give up.

New here. don't know exactly how other people's beliefs in this are. But I'm going to try and explain this in a way that makes sense.

Tate is a manifestation of your psychic energy. this implies that you have psychic energy. This is not a trait unique to you. Everyone has psychic energy.

In family situations, both because of the bond they share and the closeness of their living space. these psychic energies can become and usually are connected. Because she's your Mother. she holds psychological connotations for you that are buried in your psyche. This allows your mother's psychic energy to affect you.

Because Tate is a manifestation of your psychic energy, and because your Mother's psychic energy has such a strong impact on you ((with you being her child and I assume much younger and less developed)) When your mother decided this was bad for you on some level you accepted it, and thus why you are having this difficult getting through to Tate.

However it is actually quite simple to solve this problem. as you talk to Tate and try to reestablish your connection with him. Remind both him and yourself. My mother has no power to affect you Tate. Regardless of what my mother says or does, she can not impact you in any way, shape, or form.

and see if he doesn't come back.
