It's not just for Trump, he is backing a white supremacist organization.

http://www.thedailybeast.co...

"Along with Luckey, Nimble America was founded by two moderators of Reddit’s r/The_Donald, which helped popularize Trump-themed white supremacist and anti-Semitic memes along with 4Chan and 8Chan. A questionnaire to become a moderator at r/The_Donald posted in March had applicants answer the questions “Is there a difference between white nationalism and white supremacy?” and “Was 9/11 an inside job?”

everything is called whitesupremacist these days.

Giru0173537d ago

This is correct. They've been trying to spin the issue into a political one when it has NOTHING TO DO with the presidential race. It's about Luckey backing the racist Nimble America organization (with much more than the reported $10,000 if leads are to be believed).

DragonPaw3537d ago (Edited 3537d ago )

Fail. Now that the propaganda laws have expired and not reinstated, the whole media is against facts. There you are citing an article that doesn't even directly reference an action of Trump. I don't see him funding rioters.

Pound the war drums to the beat of Hillary Clinton, puppet of George Soros. All this turmoil in our country right now is orchestrated by this agenda. Ignore facts and listen to proxies to form your opinions. In the age of information, ignorance is a choice.

This is a favor from this flavor of the entertainment industry. I don't care about Occulus anyways, and big business operates within big politics.

Overload3537d ago

You realize what Nimble America is right? And that he is one of the founders.

DragonPaw3537d ago (Edited 3537d ago )

@Overload Milo Yiannopoulos is the only name you can put behind Nimble America, and he is not Donald Trump. You are wrong. I don't think Milo has any authority over Trump, so you are either making assumptions or believing what you were intended to believe.

Side note: Milo is a self proclaimed homosexual who prefers black men. HMMM.

kparks3537d ago (Edited 3537d ago )

Guy can back and do whatever the hell he wants.. hope he tells them to shove it! He's free to live his life how he wants. Wether you agree or not with him does not matter...and if this company refuses to do business that's there choice also.

Overload3537d ago

Of course he can back whatever he wants, but people can also choose to not support him because of it.

You may be a bigot if you discriminate against someone for their political views, religion, race or sexual preference.

Christopher3538d ago

Typically bigotry is only for those things that you show a bias towards in which someone else has no control over. Politics and religion do not fall in that arena, sexual preference is up for debate. I think you may have meant to use a word such as intolerant instead of bigot.

TFJWM3538d ago (Edited 3538d ago )

A bigot is merely someone who judges someone else in a group that they do not fall under. It is not contained to just something someone can not change.

Edit: Actually you can be bigoted against a group you even fall under it really just judging a group based on them being members of that group.

mogwaii3538d ago

Sexual preference is a ridiculous term, a gay person doesnt prefer to be gay, they just are so bigitory isnt up for debate at all.

cl19833538d ago

Hypocrite may fit in better.

donthate3538d ago

definition of bigot: a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions.

Sounds like every person condemning Oculus/Palmer in here.

Eonjay3538d ago

Welcome back Chris! Well actually yes you can be bigoted against someone for almost anything that can be used to classify someone into a group. Not just color. It is stupid but true.

Ogygian3538d ago (Edited 3538d ago )

The definition according to the OED: "a person who is intolerant towards those holding different opinions.".

Etymologically, it emerged from the French insinuating that the Normans were religious hypocrites. Having its basis in faith, the word solely refers to people holding different opinions. Intolerant is a bit broader, as it comes from the Latin "tolerare" (to endure), hence it can be used to refer to anyone who refuses to "endure" things they don't like (hence you cannot tolerate things you like - only those you dislike, which for some people can mean race or sexual preferences).

I apologise if I come across as a smart arse (that's not my intention, and I had these definitions very mixed up myself not too long ago!).

Can you be a bigot against bigots?

TFJWM3537d ago

@donthate umm no you can't be a bigot to objects...

NicSage3537d ago

Everyone here is a bigot for their opposing views to those who agree with Palmer. Everyone is a bigot in some way. Freedom doesn't stop at feelings.

frostypants3537d ago

Ah yes, the old "being discriminatory against bigots is bigotry" line...

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio36d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing36d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9236d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit36d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing36d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9235d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

Take-Two CEO Once Again Side Steps Grand Theft Auto 6 Price Point

Strauss Zelnick says price of GTA 6 is being carefully considered and that Rockstar is focused on "making the most spectacular piece of entertainment on Earth."

Kuma36d ago

If GTA 6 abandons everything that made GTA 5 great, it will crash and burn right out of the gate. GTA 5 was funny and not at all PC. My worry is that they will cave to the PC crowd and ruin the vibes.

Eonjay36d ago

They got freaking BBLs twerking on the top of trucks for the gram, the freaking Flordia joker, and dude running down the stree in their undies and you are worried about it being 'too PC'? The internet has runied gamers. It doesn't matter how non-PC they make the game, you will all listen to the grifters telling you not to believe your lying eyes lol.

gigoran836d ago

"Rockstar Games’ co-founder and former VP of Development Jamie King said he envisions GTA 6 as a game that’s “maybe not quite as edgy or quite as funny” as its satirical predecessors."

oh yeah, totally internet grifters spreading rumors...

blacktiger36d ago

That's part of the plan, they destroyed you but they need to destroy the shareholders? Only 1 shre holder is the true elite that don't care

1nsomniac36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

Meh.., if it’s above £55 I ain’t buying it.

Rockstar are genuinely not half the company they used to be. I was a die hard GTA fan I’ve purchased every game and expansion and spin off day 1.

My opinion of GTA6 is that I can take it or leave it. Not bothered. They burnt too many bridges.

DaReapa36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

So they're actually leaving the door open for an L.A. Noire sequel? Nice!

VaNdAl36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

He should just come out and say it already it's getting stupid it's going to be a 100 bucks $200 for the special edition🤡🤡; 29315;🤣♿

Storm2336d ago

I won't be getting this game until I can get it for $70. SHoot, I could wait for it to be even lower. I don't need the game that badly as my backlog is still huge and I am enjoying playing other things.
