Yeah, logo was probably not suitable for Pouet, not something you want to have pop up when you surf Pouet at work, which I guess we all tend to do a bit now and then.

However - holly shitballs there are a lot of annoyingly politically correct people on Pouet.

Pulling the "PC" card is the retards' last line of defence. When every other argument has failed they can always go "Well, you're just being POLITICALLY CORRECT!" and somehow think they have heroically exposed someone as some kind of... something. Not sure what the line of reasoning is, but I'm sure it's equally random as the rest of the thoughts in their heads.

I love how every post here is a reasonable argument ending with "but you're a dumbass anyway".

If you think that someone drawing a logo of pixel tits is "oppression" - then you must have your head so far up the leftist-feminist-wine-sipping-culture-"elite" ass that it's hard for you to hear the real world.

Oppression is when taliban throw acid at girls trying to learn in school, or when islam immigrant fathers throw their daughters of the balcony for daring to date a western boy. That's were outrage and speaking up is needed. Someone putting pixels on a screen that resembles a female bodypart, well, sorry, I just can't get worked up over that-.

Don't ask shadow, he will only give you the directions to the SD/Avpixlat-nätkrigare recruitment office.

seriously sdw you racist fucking disgrace. get of our introvert little demoscene subculture and go hang yourself.
I dont like the term "politically correct" as a way of belittling people (I dont like any terms as ways of belittling people), but I do agree on the metaphysical implications of calling me such things: that questions of gender are also political (or ethical as I called them), and that I am correct, or to put it more bluntly: that I am right.

okkie: To me it looked like you're actually agreeing on things.


Looking back I think we indeed somewhat are, but Dubmood's post was so incoherent I didn't know for sure.

I was thrown off about the comment of no-one appreciating a well drawn naked dude or smth.

Sorry dubs! I guess we do agree?

Also, that logo was dumb, sexism is dumb and people being edgy, ignorant and stupid about it are dumb

Ah, yes. Only those evil muslims are capable of oppresssion, and we're perfect because we're not throwing acid in people's faces.

Hah, that's perfect. "Using the term 'politically correct' is an admission that I'm right and you're wrong". I'm using that in the future :)
