Wow my video games are calling my favorite streamer a predator? When will Big Woke stop messing with my lifegamer-gulag

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago

Oh, it's that streamer guy! I thought it was the gas station security guard guy.

If he didn't probably still get royalties that sounds like it could be a funny half hour

Afaik they removed the dlc and gave refunds to everyone who bought it

Should have leaned into it and gone borderline slander

Predator's thermal vision scanning a room for underage girls.

The predator vision is actually a smell-o-vision

There is no amount of money I could be paid to post something like that and the fedora did it for free

He's not just a fedora guy, he was a Tory local election candidate!

[–] CyberSyndicalist@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

tell me that someone put this on a billboard before the election

[–] MaoTheLawn@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

He caught some flak for it but he was going to lose by miles to the labour candidate in the first place so no one really bothered too much.

I will take the expert's word on the subject. That hat tells me he knows what he's talking about

Here’s another girl expert

Okay so I normally lurk, but I think it's possible to add interesting context. What Oz said is legit in a general scientific sense. Studies have found women might have evolved an ability to avoid incest by smell. Studies have shown daughters truly are disgusted by the smell of direct male relatives.

Not saying Oz isn't a creep or a weirdo. But I'd lean towards that quote being taken out of context without knowing more.

Those studies have way to few participants to have any real value.

Scientists like to find significance in non-significant results when it fits their biases.

I see this all the time and it really sucks to have to repeatedly push back against it because you know those people were taught the importance of proving results are significant and are just ignoring the problem. It's usually from people in positions of power with financial conflicts of interest.

It's even worse when you say results from an animal study are insignificant, because they'll run another study that's bigger or somehow modified. Either way, more animals die.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
