Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gornostay" data-source="post: 14145" data-attributes="member: 344">I just finished reading this. The gayest and most embarrassing thing I've seen all week. Maybe the most 2010 thing I have ever read. This piece belongs in a museum. I kept stopping to share excerpts with people. And in turn they were telling me more about Tim. I didn't know he spent two years making an awful iphone game that got a 9.5/10 from Destructoid (And Tim says that he hates social conventions that demand people be absurdly nice and deferential as a matter of course). There's so much going on in this piece. The absurdly misplaced overconfidence in western gaming. The baseless condescension towards the Japanese. The one sided loathing of social convention and convention in general (any consistent element in japanese games being bad). Everyone really did think the japanese were hopelessly retarded backward yellow monkey people in 2010. Imagine writing this now. Of course more people hate Japan, but with a bit more focus. And more people love them. Some openly, and some hypocritically. How we all feel about Japan is a warzone issue now. And this piece is hopelessly outdated for all sides. I would say it was outdated even when it was written, it was just too high on its own garbage supply. Like all products of the Obama Era.Yes. An insecure person who copes with strategic displays of performative insecurity. Unless when talking about how much he hates himself he also regularly mentions contempt for his audience this is lies too. He knows he's smarter than the spic children watching 9 hour youtube videos.He knows what he's doing. He knows how this looks. He's human you know. It's insecurity. This is a human fault (not really), which draws attention away from his actual wrongs and flaws (complacent status-seeking within a political culture which is toxic to art and culture and humanity).Not as much as he hates you.He's not transparent at all. Everyone's buying that this is a more or less spontaneous and authentic expression just because of all the warts and all disgustingness which people assume must mean he's being frank. Explain what that means without using the word "narcissism".If it means something to you that's something. From there profundity is more a matter of who's having the experience. Brilliant people have fascinating life experiences and beautiful inner worlds even if they live in miserable uncultured shitholes and have lives of mostly suffering. That is not Tim Rogers. Tim Rogers thinks that Ponyo is the only good Japanese movie.Tim Rogers is a cultural communist apparatchik impersonating a human being. He knows how better than most because he once had the potential to be one.I remember conversations from my childhood. I used to think that was normal. Weird eventually learning that my older brother remembered less of our childhood experiences that he was older during. I think a lot of decently intelligent people are just like this. Also there's just what's important to you. I'm sure Tim ruminates like the giant neurotic faggot that he is almost non stop. Look how many mundane encounters he has a chip on his shoulder over in this Japan piece. That's not superhuman rain man memory. That's being a petty faggot.Geller is for the unironic Marxist audience. A disgustingly low brow crowd who need to be convinced that they're high brow. But being stupid, they are very easily convinced. He's a retard who flatters other retards.Tim Rogers and Hazel ("Hazel is the key to all of this" - me) are different. They are attempting to convince actually higher brow audiences (and below) that the experience of being a higher class of person is something fundamentally different to what it actually is. Tim Rogers exists to tell you that outsider Gen X guys were just proto-hipster soyjaks who hated smoking. Hazel exists to tell you that 4chan used to be a radical punk anarchist leftist space that was queer as heck and old internet culture was all about living in the moment hopepunk lo-fi-ing your penis off. The defining experiences of actually being better than everyone else are negative. They are rage. Frustration. They are having actual hard answers to serious questions which do not degenerate into soft puddles of sentimental pseudo-romanticism. They are wanting to smash stupid faggot Jacob Geller's head into concrete. Wanting to smash stupid faggot traitor Tim Roger's pathetic excuse for a head into concrete. And so on. [ATTACH=full]2420[/ATTACH]Tim Rogers is a better actor and liar targeting you specifically.If he says so much over so long and it's so vague, who is anybody to say he's wrong about anything? It's all just like, an experience of the world man? Well yeah, I'm not going to call him wrong on any specific point. I'm calling him a liar because it all stems from obviously fraudulent foundations. It is a presented experience of the world. With deliberately held biases and skews. Now that can of course be interesting in its own way. Like reading someone who belongs to a religious faith you don't subscribe to. But really, it's reading a foreign propagandist. Now that might be fun. But you'd better be aware you're doing it.The line these people live and die on is correct. There's only experience. What the thing means to someone. But that does not make all visions true or equal in any sense.Factoids like this are how I know he could have been keyed.Am I the site's first user to crack a paragraph?</blockquote>
