Look at his twitter likes and his gf's tweets. He's dating a white supremacist.
I was disgusted when I saw those tweets. Just pissed man.
Fuck Luckey. Just fuck Luckey.

Exactly. I feel like it's a case of "He has horrible ideas, so we can call him any awful thing we can come up with!"
He DOES have horrible ideas. But the "white supremacy" thing is far fetched.
People have opinions. He has his.
Completely unrelated, how is the tech? Good, I'll buy it. Something better like the Vive or PSVR then I wont?
Politics don't have anything to do with it.
On principal I can agree with you but for something like this fuck that!Well, I mean... Being labeled a white supremacist is a pretty big deal, and in an entire other league than "simply" being "racist". Point being, there's enough here already to question his character. Maybe it'd be best if people were a little more prudent in specifically throwing these types of labels around when there is still a shadow of a doubt. Regarding the whole supremacy thing specifically, that is.
spreads hate memes using Pepe, an icon of white supremacists

This is mental gymnastics he's not being labelled a white supremacist. He was discovered funding a white supremacist website. The only contention is whether you consider Nimble America white supremacist website or not and I don't know many people willing to die on that hill. The thread title is not labelling Palmer anything people are making logical jump based off the information should it prove to be correct but any assumptions are on you.Well, I mean...

Financially backing and funding Nimble America which has made and popularized pro-trump white supremacist and anti-semitic memes and ads?
It's right in the OP.
Can someone link to her twitter or screenshot some tweets? I keep reading this but haven't been able to find anything
Not that I don't believe you guys, I'd just like to see
Some people don't seem to understand what 'white supremacy' is.

Trolls are even more aware of how to make stuff look legit with a quick delete. "What can I do to make this seem more real?" is meme magic in itself.
I mean I imagine we'll hear something shortly but I am super sceptical about this. Luckey would be confirmed the biggest fucking online idiot in a long time if it is true.
I've been working on a VR game for Oculus and felt a bit uncomfortable about all this and didn't know how to react.
So I made the player's hands 60% smaller in the Oculus version so Donald can achieve presence.

There are like 10 posts in this very thread with some pretty trash tweets from her.

"He's not a racist, he just financially supports a racist group!"
I can't keep up with your mental gymnastics.
He is the face of the Rift. His politics have everything to do with it.
So you base your electronics-tech purchases on political issues?

Noneo that doesn't harbour similar views with a caise on some level financially supports them unless forced. If you funded ISIS would actually tell me with a straight face that you have no similar beliefs what do ever as their cause?What I read in the OP is that Nimble America was founded by Luckey and 2 other folks that had worked on popularizing pro-trump white supremacist crap.
Not that Nimble America was doing this and it's goal was to support Trump through shit posting and meme's.
I'm just trying to understand this. I don't agree with any of this shit, but unless I'm reading this wrong (could be) I see him being called guilty by association.
Supporting Trump (I don't) doesn't equal racist. Associating yourself with racists is a terrible idea, but also doesn't equal racist.

If I buy his product, he makes more money. If he makes more money, he will likely use it to support his political beliefs that are the antithesis to mine.
See how it's not really that unrelated?

Here's their website. To me, it looks basically indistinguishable from crap like Fox Nation. Old, tired, conservative stuff. Not exactly Stormfront.

When someone funds a charity I think highly of them. That they are generous caring people, who care about a particular cause.
When someone finds white supremacists, I am going to think poorly of them, and assume they care about white supremacist causes.
I really don't think that's some leap of logic.
Don't want people thinking you're a white supremacist? Don't use your millions to fund white supremacists
What kind of response is this? This isn't a "political issue". The dude is funding hate speach. That's an issue everyone should give a shit about

Well I'm voting for Donald, (is it a surprise I'm a deplorable?) .. does that mean that everybody who votes for him agrees with all his policies, or that everybody who buys a Rift support racism?
Ok, strike the Political description. I'm still trying to figure out what this has to do with the newest hottest and latest VR Tech or Rift news. Seems like this is a discussion for debate class, or OT section.

This... if the only goal is to not support Hillary, there are other options out there.
If my uncle is a racist, I'm not necessarily a racist... but if I slip him a $20 bill and I know he's going to buy a noose with it...
It's our prerogative to not directly fund a man that can then use that money to spread privileged hate?
