JoeW Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I am not trying to defend this, because I know nothing about it beyond what's in this post. But I think "scam" might be a bit harsh. You don't agree with who they chose to win, and your prize hasn't been received yet. I understand that this can be frustrating and I will try to get it sorted out for you. This is the first I have seen this complaint, so at least the second part seems like a bit of a misunderstanding. The first part certainly seems dubious, but I don't really think they are trying to pull anything over on anybody. All that being said. While there isn't anything I can do directly, I will see what I can figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for responding , I know I used the word scam harshly,although I wanted something to catch people's attention if they are planning on entering their contests and working hard on an entry (because they are apparently going to be doing a lot of them) I just don't want anyone else dissappointed about the outcome,sorry for the sort of mean post, I will remove it shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woops, typed the wrong name for the internet vileman after having just woken up, they were on a podcast together when this was said so mixed the two up. Point still stands that this is a meme of a conspiracy theorist that had the R-slur covered up by "not trusting Tencent" and you can find this very quickly by googling it. 6 minutes ago, Seero said: No one literally cares, Sunset Well obviously someone does or I wouldn't be bringing it up. You not caring about something =/= nobody in the entire world cares. I'd be kind of concerned if nobody cares about slurs on a forum like this, honestly.

A lot of memes retrofit so it would be acceptable in places where slurs are forbidden. Even "Maxwell Memes" had some memes posted were the original had a slur. From the looks of it your reply isn't about the Tencent meme, but pushing an agenda that "Alex Jones" and "Joe Roegan" are bad people because "conspiracy theorists". Thus this meme is bad too, even though the topic is entirely different. Spoiler I have no idea what this thread supposed to be, so I am just going with the flow until it is locked.

For the rest of the comment, I very much have an issue with the Tencent meme specifically, because of the very obvious undertones (can you even call them undertones?) that the choice of meme gives off when used in the context of Tencent. And I did state some facts about the people involved, yes, again you can find this stuff very easily by simply googling the names. It's pushing an agenda in the same way that saying killer bees can damage you is pushing an agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't a user like "4 Da Lols" simply state he simply doesn't like Tencent? It's his opinion anyway. People also gave valid reasons why they don't trust Tencent. I am not 100% sure if you just don't like the Tencent meme, the original image the meme was used, or a combination of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did and got a bunch of corporate media articles about his top X most crazy conspiracy theories and pushing dubious health supplements. Just say what you mean instead of vague claims. What is the "worst possible vibes"? I don't think Alex Jones is racist. I think he is fearful of the Chinese government which so are a lot of people in this thread. Edit: The use of Alex Jones for the meme is actually perfect. This thread is what most online conspiracy posts are. Some person putting together whatever evidence they think they have of some wrong doing. OP is literally putting forth a theory that Newhome publisher is conspiring to fake contest results.

Questioning the big corporates decisions isn't something they will ever do. A big corporate news publisher publishing something doesn't make it automatically untrue. I've been involuntarily exposed to Alex Jones content for years now and I'm simply saying that doing a quick google search of "alex jones bad things" is the easiest way to get a summary of them, because a corporate news publisher making that summary of real things Alex Jones has said doesn't make them retroactively not things he's said. But you can search the same thing on duckduckgo or something instead if you'd rather not trust google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
