!anticommunists use this opportunity to dunk on the resident /h/slavshit commies

Someone doxxing in the comments smh:

The guy who wrote that Medium article is an avowed neo-Nazi, just so you know.

Not saying that makes what Steve said better or defensible at all, even, but I'd be very wary of people's intentions when it comes to stuff like that.

If you haven't heard of Marvel Rivals, it's a team hero shooter (Overwatch) starring Marvel characters.

Nevermind why they're doing this - Overwatch hasn't been successful in years, !g*mers discuss - but recently early alpha codes were delivered with one stipulation:

absolutely no negative reviews allowed

Yes you heard right, these chinamen thought they could ban playtesters from shittalking their game AND that no-one would spill the beans that they were forbidden from criticism

Naturally when this got out, they were quick to issue a bullshit PR response:

You don't have to read this. All it says is

We're sorry our shitty policy got leaked. We'll change it but only because you caught us.

Extra funny bonus content: the D-tier wannabe streamers sucking up to this obvious PR stunt in the Twitter replies by pretending it's a company that's "listening to feedback" (and then begging for codes for the alpha access )

And tons of losers begging for keys without even bothering to kiss butt

Side-note: fellow !boomers I am so fricking sick of seeing "W response" on so many comments, it's not just that it's zoomer lingo that enrages me, it's that it's just a brain dead zero effort comment that contributes nothing, it makes me so fricking mad to see it

This woman finds it weird that there isn't already a national holiday for single women in their mid-30s with no children.

Why do mid 30 women all use same filter ? It's like terrible and it can't keep up with her head movement, giving strange pixels and can't even recognise where her eyes are.

Also she is already celebrating every day for being free and single from all the bs baggage as husband and children, she is strong female protagonist and every day is celebration.

A new law in Belgium celebrated by activists for providing a “labour contract” to prostitutes will also enable their pimps to punish them with a government mediator if they refuse s*x more than 10 times in a six-month period. The Belgian Parliament voted for the law on May 3, with 93 in favor, zero opposed, and 33 abstentions.

The legislation is being touted as a win by UTSOPI, the Belgium Union of S*x Workers, which had lobbied extensively for the legislation. The law outlines that prostitutes will receive health insurance, a pension, maternity and holiday leave, and unemployment benefits. Their pimps will be forced to provide them with a “safety button” to use for emergencies.

Their website claims that the law “is a historic step in the battle for s*x workers' rights” and will create a “respectful, fair relationship” between prostitutes and their pimps, with UTSOPI spokesperson Daan Bauwens telling media that he believes “Belgium is really demonstrating that it aims to protect s*x workers, regardless of any moral judgements about the profession people may have.”

Prostitutes are to be granted “rights” to refuse sexual acts, stop sexual acts, perform sexual acts in the manner they prefer, and refuse to sit behind Amsterdam-style windows (public facing windows where prostitutes are on display). However, should a prostitute use these “rights” 10 times within six months, their pimp can then call on a government mediator to intervene.

All pimps must have a registered office and apply to the Belgian government for approval to offer contracts to prostitutes. The contracts will be disguised as hotel-restaurant-café (HoReCa) contracts so that prostitutes can remain anonymous.

Andrea Heinz, a prostitution abolition advocate, called out the new legislation on X (formerly Twitter).

“There is little chance this will (actually) favour women. Under legalization/full decrim, pimps become ‘managers' with the backing of the state to further entrench and maintain their power. Pimps see women they sell as products, not people deserving of full dignity & respect.”

Outside the realm of so-called “s*x work” activism, social media users have expressed horror at the new law.

“So the [government] helps pimps to coerce s*x, what a disgusting idea,” posted X user @Bob16747466.
