Donald Trump Megathread
Gibberish and 2 others reacted to solidbatman for a topic
I think, to maybe phrase it better, is that many Trump supporters feel demonized by the left, simply because they don't agree with many policy proposals by the left. For example, I don't care for Bernie Sanders because of the effects his tax plan would have on my 401k (basically make it pointless for me to put any money into it). However, when voicing that opinion, I could find myself being told that I don't care about the poor, or that I don't care about college student loans (despite the fact I have about $8k in debt right now) etc etc. So to place that on the Trump v Clinton level. You get many of the progressive left calling out the more conservative whites as racists, and bigots. Why? Sure, racists exist on the right, and likely in higher numbers. But most people voting for Trump, I've seen, are not voting for him because of racial issues. They aren't voting for him because he plans to build a wall (the press would lead you to believe that is the only reason). Many of them voted for him because their voices are not being heard by the left. Being a rural, poor, white person essentially leaves you abandoned by politicians. The Democrats ignored them for years, focusing instead only on building a coalition of minorities to propel them to offices across the nation. It worked too, because you had a good person running the show with Obama, who I feel was not a great president, but also is not a terrible one. He did what he thought was best for the nation. Clinton on the other hand is perceived as corrupt, and uncaring by those poor rural whites. She only wants to pander to minorities and feminists in their eyes. They might not be right, but perception is everything, and she did almost nothing to counter that. Her husband recognized this and thats why many sources said he was very angry at Hillary's campaign staff. Bernie Sanders has also recognized it, saying that it was embarrassing for the Democrats to lose so badly with that demographic. Unfortunately, in the immediate aftermath of the election, many mainstream dems still have yet to figure this out, and continue to label Trump supporters as racists, bigots, misogynists, homophobic and so on. Unfairly demonizing the very people you need to rely on to win elections is well... not a winning plan by any stretch of the imagination. And before you try to label me a Trump supporter, I can't stand Donald Trump. He is a terrible human being, and a terrible choice for President, but I also recognize why he won, and how he won. And it needs to be a lesson that everyone's genuine problems should matter. Dismissing someone's problem because they are privileged is just as bad as telling someone they aren't human because they are transgendered, or are a criminal because of their race. It only serves to divide people up even more. I just want to dispel the notion that all Trump supporters voted for him to bring back Jim Crow laws, or to put BLM members in jail or whatever. Most of them voted for him, because no one else would listen to their voices, and their problems.3 points -

First I decided to try this out with no real expectations (loli hearthstone, aw ya!) but it was a lot better than I thought. Anyone else playing it? I started grinding about 20 days ago, and I'm spending way too much time with this thing.1 point -
Hey everybody, Well, we did another forums update. I'll be back in a bit with a full changelog (I need to finish tomorrow's VNTS real quick), but in the meantime, please post bugs and feedback in this thread. Note: Search and a few forums operations may be wonky for a few hours as the forums re-index themselves.1 point

Is the VN you speak of being translated by Moenovel? If so, you may want to reconsider buying it because I've read up on some infamous censorship practices done by them on If My Heart Had Wings. As @Kawasumi already said, you're better off learning Japanese.1 point -

Sanoba Witch, Senren * Banka Chances of translation?
Phantom reacted to littleshogun for a topic
Late to reply this, but I think if we talk about English release perhaps the chance will be quite low for now although maybe there will be a chance in the future (Probably at 10 or so years for the least, but it could be less). As for Sekai maybe there'll be some very slight chance that they'll do both of those, but looking from how many request that they'll accept to be considered (I'm sure it was a lot) and their current tendencies for had only one project for each of their partner right now, safe to said that it'll be very hard to do. Good luck requesting those VNs to Sekai though. PS - For one more info, actually Sanoba had a complete translation technically only that?you need to be quite fluent in Chinese (In case you didn't understand it was in Chinese).1 point -

Hello to all of our wonderful fans! We’re happy to announce our updated demo is out and released on our itch.io page! Here’s what we have added: Save/Load feature Choice options Quit Menu that allows you to go back to the Main Menu 3 Chapters for Gwyn and Emil for a total of 6 chapters 26,088 Words in total for about 3 hours worth of story 3 New static sprites 7 New backgrounds 1 New song by Geoff Moore Because of how long it was taking to implement some of these features, we were unable to add in the Fast Forward feature for the updated demo. For those that plan to play Gwyn’s and Emil’s chapters, you’ll want to save in the Prologue when Alison says "Um... I guess I’ll work with…” To pull up the menu bar, press ESC or P keys. Our mobile demos will be released in a few days. We’re currently working on fixing a bug in our Android demo. We’re going to send our Kickstarter campaign information in in a little bit so it can be reviewed. After the approval process, we’ll let everyone know about it through all of our social media pages. We can’t wait to show you what we have in store for all you Very Important fans! Stay tuned for that announcement!1 point

It was one of the main objectives of Fuwanovel from its conception, and it's been talked about many times. Rules were added later to reinforce this, mainly because smaller communities often don't need codified rules or heavy mod policing. Problems occur when communities expand. http://fuwanovel.net/about-us/ It's still listed at the number one goal on the Fuwanovel about page.1 point -

Internet culture is an oxymoron though. Anyway, the Fuwanovel forums was built to be a respectful place where people didn't have to deal with unwanted abuse. Because of this, rule number 1 on the Fuwanovel Rules thread (found in the Introduction forums) is 'no insulting other users'. Personal attacks are included.1 point -
Discussion over privilege is fine, but please do refrain from personally insulting each other. Any further posts in that vein will be hidden.1 point

Serious, now we're at "White Privilege" niveau? Anyone wants to glas some juice? And While we're at it: no more chocolate for murica, looking at you, man moving into the big white house, those cotton clothes don't fit anymore. /satire /cynism /sarcasm /notreallyserioushere That's another problem with 'modern entitlement', The Others are always at fault. Whenever something happens the finger always point the other way. "While it may not your fault, it is your fault for existing in this situation" or stuff like that might be worse than racism. Blaming people just for existing is pretty low. Racism can be explained with fearing the 'different', but finding fault in people just living as white or black or queer or straight or something else is the worst.1 point

In which universe were you watching the election? Clinton was a sore loser. She didn't gave her concession speech herself and it wasn't even a real one ("You can go home now." lol). And that is the same woman who shamed Trump for "insulting" Democracy and the American people when he voiced concerns regarding the biased media (which are obviously true as we have seen tonight and the weeks before). What a hypocrite. What a coward. Now we can look at her real face under the fake grin.1 point

Isn't the institutional left the same everywhere, though? They make really bad losers. If they win, however, all is lollipops and rainbows.1 point

I was hoping that we would buck the international trend toward nationalism, populism, and protectionism, but I suppose I shouldn't have expected sense from a country that thought electing people who called themselves the Tea Party was a good idea...1 point

As always, the human capacity for total blindness to reality and selective listening astounds me... damned populist politics. Nixon ruined things for everyone. Edit: Incidentally, I plan to just ignore national politics for the next four years... it isn't like anything good is going to come of this. This reminds me of 2010, when a bunch of morons who believed the talk of 'death panels' elected a bunch of rowdy incompetents and so-called ultra-conservatives who act like three-year-olds for the first time... Edit2: I will vote in 2018, if only to get rid of Paxton and Abbot (the AG and Governor of Texas), but I honestly have lost what little faith I had in human nature over the last eight years...1 point

Whether you like him or not, Trump is a clear testament that the entire mainstream media and the government trying to hammer down a candidate isn't the solution. (unless the plan was to elect him all along through reverse psychology i guess) He is a meme and he was damn good at memeing his way to the White House. Fix America's electorial system is you don't want this shit to repeat itself.1 point

The Internet did it. The Internet really did it. One year of extensive shitposting and meme-magic made it possible: Trump will not only make Anime real, he also won the presidential election. Proof that Trump will make Visual Novels great again! I thought the Jews (meaning George Soros) would rig the election, but apparently Democracy actually works! I'm so happy for you my dear Murricans. You stood up and defeated the liar, warmonger and criminal Hillary Clinton. From today on, the Internet shall be free from Social Justice and Political Correctness. Please search on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit and everywhere else for SJWs and LGBT people and troll them to your heart's content! My fellow Fuwas. I hereby declare the Western Eroge community once again a PC-free zone! Rejoice, you don't need to fanboy LGBT-writers like Scaji and pretentious works like Subahibi anymore. Don't hide your true desires, just fap to your alpha-male nukiges! Even better if it's an incest eroge where you can date your daughter, because that is exactly what our savior would also do! And now please excuse me, I have to grab some anime pussy ... and I won't even ask for consent!
