How is it a bad day for him, exactly? It seems like everyone on blue butterfly is always having shitty days. Almost like just waking up in the morning is an automatic loss for them. I don't understand this constant desire to be sad, miserable, angry and to close themselves in a vein of self imposed oppression they blame on others.

A detention center for illegals was built in Florida. Lefties are pretending it's literal Auschwitz 2.0, conveniently forgetting the setup is IDENTICAL to the shit Obama did for Mexicans. De Santis named it "Alligator Alcatraz" for memes.

It's spin. Kotaku deserves to fold entirely.


>>714286883
Sort of. Looks 100 percent bot generated. It's owned by Keleops. Eurotrash, but not politically motivated.


>>714287593
No. And followup should go to pol, 1 meme at best.

Do you really need a breakdown? Alright. Kotaku even at it's very best was never journalism in the first place. They never adhered to the most basic standards of journalistic professionalism practices and ethics. They were from day one explicitly a blog, and with about 2 exceptions their staff didn't know or give a fuck about the differences between event reporting, feature writing and op ed. They didn't keep a firewall between editorial and biz, which older anons who know anything about video game reporting know is what went nuclear between Gamestop and Gerstman. They flat out admitted it in court and tried to use their lack of journalistic practices as a defense in the Hogan case. In fact, it's their practices, and the sites that followed in their footsteps that lead the big gaming press to the point where they are today: less relevant than random dweebs on youtube.

So, to slow it down even further, Kotaku was a world fucking leader in clickbait and they were literally adjudicated and found to be shit quality to the point of having their reporting determined to not be journalism but a tort by a jury, which makes that twitter/bluesky whatever the fuck conversation hilarious.

Your point about AI is a non sequitor. It's going to happen. It's not going to matter that much about who's label is on it. Kotaku currently has no talent, or even a brand name that makes someone expect talent, much less any indication that they're going to do anything other than AI shit in the first place..

t. Worked for Tom's Hardware back in the day.

They used to be. Then they released hogan's sex tapes, and insisted it was news. During the trial Kotaku's boss said, he might consider a sex tape non newsworthy if one of the people was under the age of four.

The jury smacked gawker so hard that it collapsed and it's components was sold to a bunch of different companies. A new company bought the gawker name, and is now buying kotaku name.
