Any historical study will show war speeds progress up. Look at the rapid development of radio and radar for use in war etc. Anyway not the time or place for that discussion in here.

You might want to put a /s tag in case people misread this. Er, I hope that's what you want.
Not many of our parents threaten to kill themselves over being criticized and because you're not being nice enough to a misogynistic hate movement.
You can do a ton of harm even if you aren't marching with tiki torches yelling racial slurs.
Let me quote MLK on this

Uhh I don't think most mainstream places know this as anything but a great source of video game news.
Beyond that a video game site for folks whose beliefs tend to align left of center. Toxic and can't tolerate? Sure, if all you do is hang out on 4chan and r/thedonald
I adressed Hollywood in earlier post, I'll just quote it here. But Hollywood really isn't better than this. Could be said it's worse, Boogie just runs his mouth.
While Kimmel was hosting Oscars, he just made jokes about Mel Gibson "There's only one Braveheart in the room and he isn't going to unite us either". And in Golden Globes Seth Meyers "The Deuce is a show about Time's Square in the early 70's, when New York was so seedy there were two James Franco's". So they acknowledge the stuff, invite these people to the shows and then laugh it off. Or hell, Sean Spicer invited to the Emmy's and cracking jokes.
That's fair, Hollywood isn't a monolith. But a lot of those awards shows also have folks going up there calling shit out and rightfully so, and talking about social justice issues.
There's a distinction between "doctors in Nazi Germany" and "Nazi doctors during the Holocaust." Your link specifies that it is looking at advances in medicine that came out of Nazi Germany during the 1920s and 1930s; the Holocaust didn't begin until 1941. The only thing that article mentions about Nazi medicine during the Holocaust is contemplating the question "How could science be co-opted in such a way that doctors as healers evolved into killers and medical research became torture?" So that article doesn't support the thesis that the Holocaust "had some benefits."
I'm sure that women and minorities would LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE to just ignore the politics of daily life. But sadly, they can't. And I'm not a piece of shit. Wake the fuck up, bud.
Welp. Now I'm glad that I chose not to go.
- Heather Heyer's death was caused by Anita Sarkeesian.
- Gays have too many rights.
- Bigotry is just another internet personality.
- You can say whatever you want as long as you don't kill anyone.
- We should meet Nazis in the middle.

Are you just building up to "they ban people just for asking questions" thing so we can all know where you're coming from, or...
I mean, there is no nice way to say someone who has abhorrent opinions that they are a shit human being.
Holy fuckRemember this?
This is a post about his dad.
His dad was a child rapist. His dad raped Boogie's sister.
Yo, Geoff Keighley. If you don't know what's up with Boogie, get a drink, sit down, read some of this thread, and then never associate yourself with the dude ever again.
If you truly care about the games industry, you'd make sure it was an industry where Boogie wasn't welcomed with open arms.

Not really, when your main contributions to a post about Boogie are, BUT WHATABOUT SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS through genocide, strife and horror. There's whataboutism and playing devil's advocate, and then there's whatever you're doing.
I mean. That's something a fuckin' Nazi would say. So, I guess?
Oh this had nothing to do with boogie at all. This was clearly not the place to write about this and i'm sorry about that.
Sorry for being the guy that clearly walked into a discussion that he had nothing to do in.
I'll let myself out
This extend beyond boogie, ninja was announced weeks ago there hasn't been anything about why that's problematic.
Seriously.
A very easy way to stop people think you're a Nazi is to avoid suddenly entering conversations and saying you think the Holocaust had a silver lining, holy shit.
Tbh though he learned that type of behavior in part from his mother, reportedly, doing the same thing.
But of course we all have to help ourselves with some things, and Boogie just can't seem to reconcile his battered ego and emotions with the proper approach to, atittude, and care towards certain subject matter in a consistent, sociopolitically productive manner, one necessary for somebody in HIS position as an internet personality, with a tendency to throw his laundry out in the open. He needs to be able to swallow it down if he wishes to both continue his career and be on the side of history that is less optional the deeper you dig.

No worries, you just posted the Benefits of the Nazi regime (referring it as in the Holocaust) in a thread where a Nazi apologist is being roasted.
No worries at all.....honest mistake
History is cruel. It's the way we talk about it that's in question, and (one of many areas) where Boogie is awful.
For example, I saw people banned in the CDProjekt tweet controversy for mere thinking that perhaps the person that made that tweet wasn't a transphobic monster but a stupid as hell person that didn't think that tweet enough before doing it. That's the kind of exageration I'm talking about.
I will respond guys I'm not ignoring you. I work the late shift tonight so I will not respond right away. Hopefully I can convey my concerns well to you.
Stop this, there is plenty of legitimate discussion happening here, everyone is free to not follow the thread.
Actually, if you read through my posts in this thread you will see that that is absolutely not the case. I despise the guy. Those comments were just the historian in me coming out in a reply to a comment, which is why I backed off and said this isn't the proper to discuss it.
Just a Youtuber yes. But a fairly popular one. He has won Trending Gamer award in this same show few years ago. I think he first gained fame with a caricaturized "gamer" character, who is dumb and shouts a lot (so pretty accurate portrayal tbh). But he also reports gaming news and talks about them as himself. Don't know if he does reviews. He definitely doesn't offer any useful insight.

This notion that we learned so much medical knowledge from nazis examining Jews during the holocaust is false and usually only spouted by nazi sympathizers.
So you want to let these people get away with preaching their hatred, and all we should do is nod and let it happen?
Why is everyone so fucking concerned with the feelings of the influencers that promote these awful ideals, and not those that are affected/hurt by their actions?
Virtue signalling? Why are you even using that term?
Just a Youtuber with millions of followers.
Hitler had a pretty sad life too. Hell, I had a shitty upbringing myself, and I'm sure Boogie grew up not wanting to be like that and wanting better for himself and those around him. He's certainly not responsible for the cards he was dealt, definitely not as a kid. But he's a grown ass man now, who is responsible for how he chooses to go about his life and treat others.
I can easily hate someone like him. Because outside of myself, there are many people in my life that I know, who have had awful childhoods, and don't let it define them. Not to say that it's not responsible for any mental health or anything of the sort, but I do think that at a certain point, you either deal with your problems, or you become them. I have every excuse in the world to be a vile person like him, but I'm not, because I don't want to add to that.
The historian in you just came out, huh. I'm sure you're a regular fucking scholar.
....the holocaust had benefits...like even if you wanted to be incredibly pedantic about that position why the fuck would you think it's a good idea to say or defend someone for saying it? You could say that about literally any horrific event. The troll accounts are looking to be purged today I see.
I won't. For a show that claims to want to celebrate games and developers, he went out of his way to kiss Kojima ass in front of an audience and viewers. I don't call up my clients at work and whine about what my wife's employer's lawyers will or won't let her do. It's fucking weird and takes attention away from where it doesn't need to be. That's one example. And yet here we are in a thread about how giving boogie and idiots like Ninja a platform, two pieces of trash who don't make games (but who sure do have a lot of followers Keighley could use!)
Stop it, he says.
