They banned literally anybody who stans for Microsoft on Resetera? What's next, pigs flying?

Only 1 day tho, of course. They've banned regular users doing non console-warring truth posts about Xbox for far longer durations. Just the worst moderators & admins over at ResetERA, truly.

My account's thread-banned from the acquisition thread because I said I thought the acquisition was the beginning of the end for the industry as we know it, and for the worst. Meanwhile, there's people in there literally calling for the defunding of every form of market regulation, calling the head of the FTC "a bitch", making literal accusations that Sony has CMA "in their pocket" (ironic given the immediate family of that very same judge -- I'll let y'all Google that one), and not even receiving warnings.

This is especially fucked if you're a woman. They're extremely intimidated by argumentative women and will literally warn you, or even ban you on sight if you so much as talk back at them for any reason, it's mega funny because you can tell it's micropenis behaviour. If you pay attention, you'll see that anyone who's vehement about their beliefs, if they are very obviously female, they usually have a huge history of issues with the mods. And I've been told that's the case from users who knew them as regulars prior to becoming mods, so lol.

To this day I continue to say the exact same shit I said on my main account, but since it's far more ambiguous what my gender is, I've only been warned once, no other problems so far.

pretty sad that resetera is supposedly this haven for woke but they still haven't grown up past the 'omg girl on the interwebs' phase of the early 2000s. just goes to show that their politics is purely performative and apropos of nothing.
