Hey. Im not aginast GG at all but...

It is super cringey how a bunch of people that actively advocate GG in videos and what not keep naming themselves/ making their profile pictures/ etc after old philosophers and using statues.

Internet aristocrat, Sargon guy, you. Its just so.... ehhhh.

[–]Sockpuppet30342 16ポイント17ポイント  (5子コメント)

I kind of understand the view point, but IA's was just a stock image of an aristocrat from google I believe.

in defense of Sargon of Akkad, he's been around before GamerGate and he is kinda of a history nerd, he even had a secondary channel where he read ancient texts.

So using an ancient figure kinda goes in line with his personality.

Well that makes it a lot better.

That sounds sarcastic, but it isn't.

[–]empyreanmax 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

I get that feeling somewhat but if the worst thing about them is that their profile pics are a little cringe then I can easily live with that.

[–]Doesnt_Draw_Anything -4ポイント-3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Oh yeah, I still like most of Sargon's videos, I was just wondering if I was the only one.

Have you seen anti-Gamer Gate's profile pictures?

[–]Doesnt_Draw_Anything 26ポイント27ポイント  (8子コメント)

They aren't any better. 2 things can be bad. Its not a zero sum game.

Ah, you're above it all - you should put a picture of God in your profile.

Sargon is a history buff so I don't really mind.

[–]Ad__Hominem 4ポイント5ポイント  (3子コメント)

I appreciate the sentiment, but unless you're relying on identity politics, why shouldn't people post whatever they want as profile pics?

I don't need to know anything about somebody's race, gender, attractiveness, etc, to judge their philosophies and actions. In fact, I prefer it to letting your body's presence define your relevance. Unless you disclose, the Internet puts you on equal footing to display what you want, and I don't know why we would want to stop that.

Sargon with a long beard quite resemble the actual statue picture.

Also this relativistic mass we are living is the consequence of postmodernism, so people can use old philosophers to make a point.

[–]Doesnt_Draw_Anything -5ポイント-4ポイント  (10子コメント)

I mean, aren't you a little bit biased, Descartes?

[–]MrRexels 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

You think? (And therefore, you might be?)

[–]descartessss 1ポイント2ポイント  (8子コメント)

Descartes is often regarded as the first thinker to emphasize the use of reason

reason is not biased

Damn man, didn't think it was hard to figure out.

My quote "It is super cringey how a bunch of people that actively advocate GG in videos and what not keep naming themselves/ making their profile pictures/ etc after old philosophers and using statues."

You are using a username named after Descartes.

You then argue in defense of people using philosophers in their name.

I then make a light joke about you being a bit biased, based on the fact that you are arguing for something that you also do.

Get it now?

Damn man, didn't think it was hard to figure out.

My quote "Descartes is often regarded as the first thinker to emphasize the use of reason"

I'm using a username named after Descartes.

So I reported how this philosophers is a key feature that pointed out the importance of reason leading to the scientific revolution. Reason is the power of the mind to think and understand in a logical way, not driven by emotions or perceptions. Ergo unbiased. So I acknowledged that the joke was on topic but I informed you it was misplaced.

Get it now?

[–]Doesnt_Draw_Anything -3ポイント-2ポイント  (5子コメント)

You can't come at me with a "didn't think it was hard to figure out".

You named yourself after a Philosopher. I also had one downvote after making my biased comment.

Everything you said before that would lead someone to believe that you missed a joke and were being serious.

Which for the most part, you were.

[–]descartessss 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

You start saying that using historical figures is cringey, a negative comment. I gave you a reasonable reason, maybe wrong. Your answer was a joke that, since it followed a negative comment, sounded sarcastic. I ignored your attitude again and I gave you another reasonable reason to deflect your sarcasm, which by itself is a demonstration of why I use this username. You then describe me like some kind of idiot, and I used a mirror on your comment, which was probably too meta. Sorry if it was actually hard to figure out.

I don't downvote people here, I actually upvoted buried comments even if I don't agree... becouse I'm good like that. You just started your thread mildly insulting people for no clear reason, since I don't know what is wrong with historic figures and they are actually used by few people, but that is most likely the reason why you are going to be downvoted and the trend will follow you along the threads, despite my single upvote.

So, is it all clear now?

[–]Doesnt_Draw_Anything -2ポイント-1ポイント  (3子コメント)

Was always clear. You think you are part of something "greater" and its super cringey.

[–]_albatross 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Oh look at me, I'm way better because I'm pointing out how people are super cringey by trying to emulate some of the greatest philosophers by taking on their avatars.

Greater? nevermind.

IA was a picture of a guy modeling an "aristocrat wig" from some costume shop website.

Sargon is named after an ancient Sumerian ruler
