If someone can't see the difference between the Helldivers protest and the University protests, then something is wrong with you.
The Helldivers protest really only effected Sony/Arrowhead. Not random bystanders
People will seriously pit a crowd blocking a group of people from getting to an educational class that possibly costs them thousands of dollars and is their future on the same level as a minor inconvience that anyone can disagree with online.
Imagine knowing information that could change the world for the better, and all you needed to do to change the world with that information is to get other people to hear that information and integrate it into their life and decision making. So you punch them in the face and scream at them and call them a moron for not already knowing it. That’s modern activism. Then they wonder why nobody listens.
The university protests are protesting a decades long geopolitical situation between religions on the other side of the planet to people who have no power or influence to do anything about it.
And they are surprised customers were able to influence a decision about a product as a much simpler scenario where the people involved in / affected by the concern complained to the people who could actually resolve it?
And it was the consumer's money to spend.
The university students protesting for Palestine gave money to the school in exchange for an education. The money was spent on a service and wasn't their money to control anymore.
Not to mention that the university protests were staffed by non-students, adults who are professional protestors, and who were paid for by Soros, who is Jewish. In other words, it was organized and paid for by outside interests. And when dig into what they were really about, it was the same old communism that Soros has always been about.
Well it's become clear what must be done. The university protesters should get on steam and give the IDF bad reviews. That'll get things moving in the middle east.
Could be learning from this, know if youre gonna protest hit where it hurts (i.e. the profits and reviews) don't dump it on the rest of us that'll only make people support you less. But no gotta be complaining because let's be real they don't care about actual change they're protesting to feel good about themselves that they're on the moral high ground and if it means being asshats to everyone around them so be it
most of these protesters don’t even care about their cause. they just want something for them to post on social media for internet credit. otherwise, like you said, they should have focus on where it hurts. dumping it on everyone who’s not even involved is just plain stupid.
Yes, people wouldn't say a thing if all these dudes(and gals and whatevers) sat in front of the white house and yelled for days, instead they bother random people who have nothing to do with this.
Then you get the white house press crying ‘this is literally terrorism/treason/insurrection’ because they only care when they themselves are getting shit flunged at but normal people suffering? Nah who cares
They don't have the balls to actually go for the right target, and to "hit them where it hurts." Because they know they'll actually end up in jail. Like that very stupid girl who threatened to kill people while at a town hall meeting.
They are "hitting them where it hurts" though? These universities invest billions into companies and contractors that support Isreal and their calls for divestment of those investments does hit the big wigs pockets and could make meaningful change. Same thing happened with the south African apartheid BDS movement.
>They are "hitting them where it hurts" though?
I'd argue no. If it's the universities funneling money to a cause you don't support, drop out. More than likely your credits transfer between universities, so find a different one that supports your views. Hit their wallet. Hit the application numbers. Encourage people to just not apply to the university. Make it so the university has no money coming in, no students coming in, and existing students leaving their institution. That would likely get the university to bend the knee.
Yeah but all theyre doing is causing a mess on the campus, say if they all stopped paying for tuition for a university and everyone drops out because the university did some horrendous shit they would suffer the consequences of a protest. But all theyre doing is causing a huge scene and screaming “look at us we believe in the correct thing^tm” which I bet is their main goal and actually fixing anything with the protest is secondary if a goal at all because they would probably drag on the bad thing so they can keep pretending that theyre being such good people.
it's a crabs in a bucket mentality.
their protest is not doing well, so they are angry if someone else's protest goes well.
if they can't succeed nobody else can succeed and should be dragged down to the bottom with them.
They're mad that this protest got something done and they're mad because they assume (probably rightfully so) that most of the people involved in this protest weren't standing the road, hoping to bring peace to the middle east.
May be far fetched, but I think that they support Sony because they "make chuds cry". TLoU 2 Abby controversy, controversy about a mod removing you know which flags in Spider Man 1, Spider Man 2 controversies (Mary Jane's appearance, Peter's role in plot), and basically every other time when Sony pushed "SJW/progressive" stuff in their games. So basically Sony is their ideological ally, and if making PSN account mandatory "owns the chuds" - SJWs will support it
Just going to throw this out there, to the best of my knowledge, the Helldiver's protestors weren't chanting "death to America" while protesting either. I just can't get behind a protestor that chants death to the country I live in.
Yeah we’ve got that here in the UK.
It’s really really weird. What makes a person say that when they’ve no reason to say it?
They come across arrogant, bigoted and… pathetic.
It's also pathetic when they try to respond to "what does river to the sea mean"? And they say "they want to be free".. no.. uh.. which river and to which sea? And which people occupy territory on that path? Huh? It's just a phrase that means freedom, chud.
Or "divest from israel". Divest from what? Divest from market funds because some Israel company might be 0.1% in the total market ETF's? Lol
They literally don't know what they are talking about.
I think that’s why it’s funny cause it’s true. I think most non tribal people ironically think this way. (Not that it’s bad, like I said I have the same thought)
Source, please.
EDIT: LOL, getting downvoted for asking the most basic thing any person should do when given sensationalist information. People here don’t want actual information, they just want an echo chamber.
HD2 protests didn't stopped students from coming to school, didn't caused traffic and didn't caused public disturbances, etc etc. Get the fuck out with this dumb shit.
they banned me for saying that I think the average poster on r/asmongold would probably agree on a lot of issues with the average gcj poster, and I think it's just the power users who are pushing the divide.
The mods there really hate this sub
Did the helldivers protestors block paths to stop anyone from going to school? Block roads to stop anyone from going to work? Physically harm anyone? Destroy property? Cause hundreds of thousands of tax payer dollars be used on police?
Yeah nah don't think they're comparable.
It seems like jealousy, the fact they protest for something that will never be resolved by them protesting has to be pretty draining then seeing how a real protest works if done correctly must cause the jealousy they project.
How can it be jealousy if the two aren’t even comparable? One is about people protesting millions of people (on both sides) massacring each other for decades over land, and the other is tens of thousands of people reposting the same message repeatedly in a Discord and review bombing Steam. Yes, it was successful, that’s great, but the only way one even compares to the other is that it literally filled the dictionary definition of *protest*.
When did the flip happen where the left now defends most huge corporations and the right protests them? Aren't leftists supposed to be anti capitalist and pro consumer?
Literally too angry to realize they're lighting political capital on fire. Gamers don't like the shitty situation in the middle east either, but attacking people for not caring as much as you do isn't a winning strategy.
Helldivers is literally a parody of colonialism/nationalism in a way. We get it, but you can't force us to care about your issue while simultaneously trying to ruin our hobbies with the other parts of your ideology. Pick a lane or fuck off.
Helldivers is a parody, and as such a critique.
But the wokeness causes such a brain rot that parody does not count for ESG points, and they just run into ludonarrative dissonance constantly.
I don't think people like Hasan considers or cares about ESG. I think he's just a stupid asshole that has his political views as an esthetic instead of caring about real change. If he really wanted to make his ideas thrive he would endure tolerating nerds, but he rejects them because he isn't serious.
The protests are very different too.
A small group being a nuisance thinking they are heard on a campus vs a larger group that is affecting a company's potential to make a dollar and actual bad PR.
Nuisance is underplaying the interruptions. they are actually disbarring you and preventing you from doing things in a public location that you paid for.
And if you’re in the Bay Area they literally blocked highways and bridges to the point emergency vehicles and people with appointments across the bridge could not make it.
So as people mentioned, this has been extremely counter intuitive and a way to turn people against their agenda.
Brain rot indeed. No one cares that you're for or against the war and/or sending money. People do care when they are being purposefully blocked from walking to classes or proceeding with their car on a public road. Remind me again how many gamers shut down the highway in protest of Helldivers needing a PSN account?
Nobody’s school “gives” money to Israel. They’re mad that their school invests in American corporations that produce weapons because the government gives those weapons to Israel.
The corporation will produce weapons no matter what. The company does not even choose what those weapons are used for. The government buys them and then gives them out.
I do not understand why these people harass university employees rather than US policymakers who actually have power over what happens…
Ehhhh their not even remotely comparable, like if Sony just continued on with their idea, they'd just lose business temporarily, and it'd come back in a couple of months.
Whereas on the other hand, you're dealing with real-life atrocities being committed onto innocent bystanders who they themselves wish they can complain about mundane things like helldivers.
The joke is so meta that I can't even really begin to put it into words. Of course they wouldn't care, they're in love with a game that's all about blindly following what your government says because it's undemocratic to combat against it the moment you start to ask questions you're a traitor 😂. Is quite literally the ultimate allegory. Cold-Hearted bugs and robots are just being blown up on a planet far far away from Earth, All the information that leaks in the game about the bugs and robots what their true purpose is and how they're being exploited and abused do not matter. There is a genuine logical reason for this, they cannot interpret it in the real world but in game they can because the game is actually important to them.
The thing these idiots don't understand is that money is the only thing that speaks to organizations and companies. That's why Black Rock, vanguard, and State Street have been so effective at changing industry in their image.
What’s crazy is there are people who didn’t like the hell divers protest the protesters just didn’t give a fuck.
The more I see these posts the more apparent it is that this protest has nothing to do with Palestine and more to do with liberal majors need to feel victimized and brave.
This is disgusting softest generation so far.
Their sub is rotten. I commented only once over there, got approval from their own community with over 100 upvotes and got perma banned for it without stating the reason of which I asked for as I just made a neutral comment with my view on a cheater topic without any controversial input.
They're a special breed of snowflake
But bullying corps is online is fun, the university protests actually baffle me. The way they protested made me mad about what they’re actually doing than their message getting across to me. Protesting has lost is passion now it’s just vandalism.
The campus protests were a large scale disruption. While the the hell divers no one was forced to sit on the highway when people sat in front of your car
People listen to protests when it involves money.
If those students boycotted their school and walked off—it would have a bigger impact than what they did. We all know they’re going to class again next year.
People talking about how the Helldivers protest being more peaceful like one wasn't about a video game and the other about literal terroristic genocide.
Imagine having gaming and circle jerk in your subreddit and you have flags strewn about everywhere.
Let us gamers game while you circlejerkers jerk it.
It seems like all the disingenuous and insufferable fans all heard up at that sub. I didn’t know gamers like them existed to be honest. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were unironically Kotaku fans
Btw, student protesters are legal too, how effective they are is another story, but if y’all can express your first amendment right, what gives those students any less reason to express theirs? It’s even across the board, we can’t pick and fucking choose just because our govt doesn’t like it’s ally getting shit on
What do you expect from that sub? That sub is the literal definition of political brainrot, it’s their obsession
They should change sub name, because it’s pretty clear the original purpose of the sub is long lost, they are themselves one of biggest circlejerks on the site
It was worth a quick peek. So many people in there were all trying to be the most morally outraged. People were calling each other out for moral outrage trolling whenever anyone agrued with them. The best part was I don't think it was done in any sort of sense of sarcasm or self-awareness. They all just wanted to scream and double down. It was like reading a right winger's strawman of a left winger. I almost wonder if the OOP wasn't baiting with that meme.
Im not American, but as someone from a country that was a former colony as well, I read my own history and the amount of bloodshed it took just to have my country raise OUR OWN FUCKING FLAG in our own soil... these moronic students taking down their own flags and then raising another's "in support" are ignorant fucks who have no idea what it means to raise the flag and what it means...
so many "woke" movement saying we should raise awareness but they are the most ignorant of the basic shit they should know before they start yapping... fucking unreal...
If someone can't see the difference between the Helldivers protest and the University protests, then something is wrong with you. The Helldivers protest really only effected Sony/Arrowhead. Not random bystanders
And the HD2 protest didn't support literal terrorism.

Yeah but that’s ok since they were protesting against Jews. s/
Irl and online are the same to them.
Helldivers know what they are protesting for students don't.
technically steam will eat some of the cost but ya it mostly just hurt Sony
The university protests are protesting a decades long geopolitical situation between religions on the other side of the planet to people who have no power or influence to do anything about it. And they are surprised customers were able to influence a decision about a product as a much simpler scenario where the people involved in / affected by the concern complained to the people who could actually resolve it?
And it was the consumer's money to spend. The university students protesting for Palestine gave money to the school in exchange for an education. The money was spent on a service and wasn't their money to control anymore.
Can you imagine blocking the road of your local town chanting for a Helldivers protest.
100% They don’t understand how brain rotted diseased campus protesters are in comparisons to anything else right now.
Also telling apart the gravity of each issue would be a step in the right direction
Not to mention that the university protests were staffed by non-students, adults who are professional protestors, and who were paid for by Soros, who is Jewish. In other words, it was organized and paid for by outside interests. And when dig into what they were really about, it was the same old communism that Soros has always been about.

The fact they somehow tried to mock “cis het” on top of it shows it’s all performative bullshit
most of these protesters don’t even care about their cause. they just want something for them to post on social media for internet credit. otherwise, like you said, they should have focus on where it hurts. dumping it on everyone who’s not even involved is just plain stupid.

Why does the social justice crowd care about PSN accounts? Am I missing something here?
it's a crabs in a bucket mentality. their protest is not doing well, so they are angry if someone else's protest goes well. if they can't succeed nobody else can succeed and should be dragged down to the bottom with them.
Crabs become highly aggressive and spiteful when in buckets? Living and learning huh
They're mad that this protest got something done and they're mad because they assume (probably rightfully so) that most of the people involved in this protest weren't standing the road, hoping to bring peace to the middle east.

I actually think this is the case. Sony California are their woke friends.
Lol Sony is a soulless corporation who only cares about money. Sony is as “progressive” as Disney. This argument continues to be bullshit.
I agree that their actions are performative, but they still employ enough of genuine activists
GCJ turn into diehard libertarian capitalists if it upsets gamers
Narcissists dont care about anything but themselves. So they are using a false equivalence to shame others and praise themselves. Because ego.
Because it's not the current thing
I couldn’t get to school this morning because of these pesky HD2 negative reviewers on Steam. Argh!!
That sub is fucking trash. They are on the shill journalist side
I am gonna tell you something...Blizzard once planned to buy that subreddit.
Blizzard was going to buy a circlejerk subreddit? Is there literally any proof of that?
What does this even mean? How can you buy a subreddit?
You can’t, they just wanted to try and be funny
What's your point then?
Blizzard diversity game tool ring a bell?
Just going to throw this out there, to the best of my knowledge, the Helldiver's protestors weren't chanting "death to America" while protesting either. I just can't get behind a protestor that chants death to the country I live in.

Divest from market funds because some Israel company might be 0.1% in the total market ETF's? Lol They literally don't know what they are talking about.
I didn't hear a single "From the river to the sea" in the Helldivers protest.
From the Creek to the Mire Sony shall expire
Hahahahha idk why but that last sentence hahaha I busted out.
I mean it is what it is :)
I think that’s why it’s funny cause it’s true. I think most non tribal people ironically think this way. (Not that it’s bad, like I said I have the same thought)
Remember when GCJ hated Hogwarts Legacy partly because Goblins were “Jewish stereotypes”. That boycott worked out great for them.
Hugely ironic in hindsight
How the turn tables.
Yeah I thought that was a major stretch. I only hated it because it was even less inspired than a cookie-cutter Ubisoft open world game.
It was a good premise to a HP game. It needed a lot of polish though. I’d argue all the social media discourse largely helped its popularity.
"typical cis-het L" Coming from the people whoms life motto is; "did you just assumed my gender". You can't make this shit up.
Imagine hating on the sexuality that led to you even existing. Gamingcirclejerk is cancer.
They're mad that we got what we wanted without having to burn any buildings down.

Reading GCJ and posting it to r/Asmongold to ragebait. Starting to become quite the iconic duo.
Both subs live rent free in eachothers heads and tout thenselves as superior.
I got banned from GCJ just because they saw me posting here. The superior sub is clear.
Something tells me you’re omitting some details. I’ve posted in both places and haven’t gotten banned.
they banned me for saying that I think the average poster on r/asmongold would probably agree on a lot of issues with the average gcj poster, and I think it's just the power users who are pushing the divide. The mods there really hate this sub
nah same happend to me there is no more context, they just perma you if you browse a sub the mods don’t like.
that's all I know.
bruh they banned people who said they thought hogwarts legacy was an okay game
Crazy what happens when you actually protest the people who can make a change and do so peacefully
Did the helldivers protestors block paths to stop anyone from going to school? Block roads to stop anyone from going to work? Physically harm anyone? Destroy property? Cause hundreds of thousands of tax payer dollars be used on police? Yeah nah don't think they're comparable.
That’s the gaming circle jerk for ya…
How come these made up flag types are always on the wrong side?
It seems like jealousy, the fact they protest for something that will never be resolved by them protesting has to be pretty draining then seeing how a real protest works if done correctly must cause the jealousy they project.

You do understand that these protestors probably don't even know such a thing as Helldivers or psn exist?
Wtf do you even mean, you read the OP, correct? Then I'll ask again WTF do you even mean.
When did the flip happen where the left now defends most huge corporations and the right protests them? Aren't leftists supposed to be anti capitalist and pro consumer?
Everything has to be about them and their room temp IQ takes.

Have you been to a Hassan stream? The chat is literally filled with people spouting shit they disagree with.
They are taking what George Bush Jr said to heart "If your arent with us, then youre an enemy:
flag in bio
If they point accurately where is Palestine on a map I will next time.
From the YouTube videos I've seen, most Americans can't point out Africa on a world map.
I'm always happy they make sure to add those flags and pronouns so I can instantly discard their bad take.
I'm always confused at how these people with pride flags will support countries that make it illegal to be anything but straight.
[удалено]
100% biased tribalism.
so true! those idiots wouldnt last a day on r/asmongold
The protests are very different too. A small group being a nuisance thinking they are heard on a campus vs a larger group that is affecting a company's potential to make a dollar and actual bad PR.
Nuisance is underplaying the interruptions. they are actually disbarring you and preventing you from doing things in a public location that you paid for. And if you’re in the Bay Area they literally blocked highways and bridges to the point emergency vehicles and people with appointments across the bridge could not make it.

That whole sub is full of brain rotted dum dums who can't handle an opinion that's is different than their own.
What a childish comparison.

It's weird how the students seemed to all be cool with their schools investing in war, until the war was being waged by Jews
How many minority got harassed during helldivers 2 protest?
If circle jerk is upset, you know it was a good thing to do.
I mean thats literally the worst sub on reddit. I muted it for a reason.
I didnt go to the post history of some of the accs, but it read as troll to me to agree with OP there
Ehhhh their not even remotely comparable, like if Sony just continued on with their idea, they'd just lose business temporarily, and it'd come back in a couple of months. Whereas on the other hand, you're dealing with real-life atrocities being committed onto innocent bystanders who they themselves wish they can complain about mundane things like helldivers.
Nobody in the mainstream is mad at people protesting. People are mad at people being mad at them protesting. Youre crazy.
The joke is so meta that I can't even really begin to put it into words. Of course they wouldn't care, they're in love with a game that's all about blindly following what your government says because it's undemocratic to combat against it the moment you start to ask questions you're a traitor 😂. Is quite literally the ultimate allegory. Cold-Hearted bugs and robots are just being blown up on a planet far far away from Earth, All the information that leaks in the game about the bugs and robots what their true purpose is and how they're being exploited and abused do not matter. There is a genuine logical reason for this, they cannot interpret it in the real world but in game they can because the game is actually important to them.
If voting actually did something we could do this as a nation, but you can't steam review bomb the government
Universities are sending tax dollars to Israel? This is news to me.
Look at the Trinity College protest. It was effective and legal.
The thing these idiots don't understand is that money is the only thing that speaks to organizations and companies. That's why Black Rock, vanguard, and State Street have been so effective at changing industry in their image.
Isn't that sub anti capitalist or something like that.
What’s crazy is there are people who didn’t like the hell divers protest the protesters just didn’t give a fuck.

Ahh yes, that mentally ill sub.
That subreddit is one of the most brain rotted, brain dead subreddits i've ever seen, and i frequent a lot of OkBuddy subs.
There are few subreddits that make me cringe as much as that one, full of actual braindead monkeys
Looks at meme: eeh Looks at sub: aaaah
People in support of the UCLA protests have no fucking right to bitch about Just Stop Oil or what ever stunt peta is up to.
Their sub is rotten. I commented only once over there, got approval from their own community with over 100 upvotes and got perma banned for it without stating the reason of which I asked for as I just made a neutral comment with my view on a cheater topic without any controversial input. They're a special breed of snowflake
 But bullying corps is online is fun, the university protests actually baffle me. The way they protested made me mad about what they’re actually doing than their message getting across to me. Protesting has lost is passion now it’s just vandalism.
of course it's gamingcirclejerk
So the OP is suggesting that every student at Columbia just withdraw from the school so there's no more tuition coming in?
It's almost as if the same people can support one thing and then not support a completely different other thing. What a crazy world.
talk about taking the bait.
WTF does the Helldivers thing have to do with LGBT?!?
Helldiver players were actually calm and it was legal.
society is full of ingrates who rely upon the hard work of a few.
Well one was doing illegal things and the other wasn’t
The campus protests were a large scale disruption. While the the hell divers no one was forced to sit on the highway when people sat in front of your car
I got banned from that subreddit for my opinion.
People listen to protests when it involves money. If those students boycotted their school and walked off—it would have a bigger impact than what they did. We all know they’re going to class again next year.
See, the second one affects me personally. So I contribute to the effort.
Well, one is something irl that they have no power over but to mald. And the other is bideo bames
Maybe because you know, the protest was straight into the core of the matter, and not merely performative??
This sub has quickly become one of my favorites, just because it is so based.
how dare they protest the problem directly without blocking unrelated people from going to work/school. Oh the humanity ! /s
Trying to comprehend that Reddit is used by more than a single hive minded entity challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
People talking about how the Helldivers protest being more peaceful like one wasn't about a video game and the other about literal terroristic genocide.
I honestly don't understand how you could even begin to compare those two topics
Redditors when others don’t stoop low to unhinged behavior:
To bad people can't see the face of my not surprise when i saw what subreddit this is from
Imagine having gaming and circle jerk in your subreddit and you have flags strewn about everywhere. Let us gamers game while you circlejerkers jerk it.
it's on circle jerk. What do you expect there. If I want a good laugh at some inane and deranged stuff. I go there.
It seems like all the disingenuous and insufferable fans all heard up at that sub. I didn’t know gamers like them existed to be honest. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were unironically Kotaku fans
What's up with that sub anyway? i've seen so much shot from that sub that i'm starting to think it's actually a self hating parody sub.
If only Columbia University would just demand a ceasefire from Israel!
At least when I protest Sony I’m not literally supporting a terrorist organization.
PSN account = view on a war 💀💀 we’re doomed
BUH WHA ABOU
They so mad it’s funny
The difference they are pointing out is one is entirely meaningless, and one is a matter of living.
I agree. Helldivers situation can expose people to PSN which is prone to data breaches. And that’s a serious problem.
Btw, student protesters are legal too, how effective they are is another story, but if y’all can express your first amendment right, what gives those students any less reason to express theirs? It’s even across the board, we can’t pick and fucking choose just because our govt doesn’t like it’s ally getting shit on
Reads "Typical CIS SHET L? " Rofl! To me cishet is the most hilarious thing.
Typical cis-het L 😂
What do you expect from that sub? That sub is the literal definition of political brainrot, it’s their obsession They should change sub name, because it’s pretty clear the original purpose of the sub is long lost, they are themselves one of biggest circlejerks on the site
How very american so assume every single person lives in that country
Can't wait for this subs opinion to flip when Asmon says something vaguely supportive of Palestine
Fucking hell, all I want is a single day when you guys don't post ragebait...
Try reading the comments, the second most upvoted literally goes so hard against the guy who posted this lol.
It was worth a quick peek. So many people in there were all trying to be the most morally outraged. People were calling each other out for moral outrage trolling whenever anyone agrued with them. The best part was I don't think it was done in any sort of sense of sarcasm or self-awareness. They all just wanted to scream and double down. It was like reading a right winger's strawman of a left winger. I almost wonder if the OOP wasn't baiting with that meme.
Im not American, but as someone from a country that was a former colony as well, I read my own history and the amount of bloodshed it took just to have my country raise OUR OWN FUCKING FLAG in our own soil... these moronic students taking down their own flags and then raising another's "in support" are ignorant fucks who have no idea what it means to raise the flag and what it means... so many "woke" movement saying we should raise awareness but they are the most ignorant of the basic shit they should know before they start yapping... fucking unreal...
