Exactly how I feel about it. Now I wait for someone to be mad enough to sell their used Rift for a decently cheap price

Ignorance at its worst.

Of course it is. You can also not buy his tech because you don't like people who's name starts with a P.
I'm just having trouble understanding why mix the two.
No, it was the other way around. People looking at white supremacy and saying "that's not white supremacy, he just wants all the brown people to stay out or leave"This election cycle has turned mildly stupid into full blown loons. I can't stand looking at the vitriolic shit posts in off topic anymore and what am I greeted with today. Off topic leaking into games.

This is the human being Luckey presumably fell in love with and spends his nights with. A racist moron. Just look at some of the tweets she's retweeted.

Supporting Trump means your ok with his racist views. I'm sorry...but what other substantial argument has he made in his campaign other than fueling racist bigot fires? He gained popularity by talking about building walls and making America great again.
Please..if you're not supporting Trump based off the person he is and the comments and policies he plans to put forth...what is one actually supporting? I'd love to hear it.
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?
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...
what did he actually say and what is insinuated by guilt by association? I see almost Reddit level brigading on any political issues here and the election season has made people make inferences that would be insane normally to try to score political points
So you base your electronics-tech purchases on political issues?
B) there are people of all races that are supporting him.
I'm not going to be to argue politics of supporting Trumo as A) I don't support him and B) there are people of all races that are supporting him.
I don't completely get it either. I'm just saying that just because you support him you are not a racists. They obviously see things worth supporting him that they are willing to overlook th BS.
I don't think Nimble America = ISIS. If my reading is accurate, it sole purpose is to help elect Trump and is not directly putting out white supremacist crap. It's just the founders that have been associated with White Supremacist crap. If I'm wrong and Nimble America has been doing this. Therefore supporting Nimble America means supporting Trump. Not necessarily white supremacist even if the white supremacist are want Trump to win for their own agenda. Again, I could be wrong and Nimble America is posting white supremacist crap, but that's not what I read.
Uhhhh...see comment above.
Just because the guy's an idiot doesn't mean I should boycott his product. Separate the art from the artist, so to speak. I buy Nestle products, and they do some pretty shitty stuff. Everyone does stupid, horrible shit at one point or another. He funded a meme page. Is the stuff despicable? Sure. But it's not like he's funding a KKK rally. They're memes. I just don't agree with the outrage.
That said, I understand that not everyone shares my views. I hardly think that's an ignorant statement, and really, why the personal attack?
If purchasing the art, continues to support the artist who's doing things I don't agree with, I can do without the art and I'll encourage others to do the same.
It's even easier in this case because Occulus has been dead for a while now.If purchasing the art, continues to support the artist who's doing things I don't agree with, I can do without the art and I'll encourage others to do the same.
I wouldn't think this about someone who owned a Rift unless they also started defending Luckey. Maybe a little ignorant or uncaring too.I understand that view, but just because I don't personally subscribe to it, I don't feel like it gives anyone license to call me ignorant, racist, etc.
What on Earth justifies overlooking that? Are you kidding me?I'm not going to be to argue politics of supporting Trumo as A) I don't support him and B) there are people of all races that are supporting him.

Why on Earth would you buy a product if you knew some of that money was going to advertising a president that wants to oppress you?
So yeah, politics matter.

So you dont agree with his policies but you are voting for him.....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?

He also said he willingly supports the group.
He's a vocal supporter of Donald Trump. His girlfriends tweets are also pretty blatant.I'm confused how one leaps from that to "white supremacy". What he said there could have been written in support of McCain in his 1998 candidacy for example.
What do you think "Make America Great Again" means?can you guys interpret what your idea of white suptemecists are? I'm genuinely confused. I thought it was white people believing they are of the superior race and therefore should control society.
That's not what I have gathered from reading those tweets/trump supporting?
It depends on whether or not there's a substitute that doesn't have the same problems, which, in this case, the vive does that. But, if we're being honest, some amount of all of our money goes to shitbags for one purchase or another.
Are you for real? what don't you understand? We don't want our money to go funding organizations like this one, is that too hard to understand?
I guess you'll just have to improve your reading skills, then.can you guys interpret what your idea of white suptemecists are? I'm genuinely confused. I thought it was white people believing they are of the superior race and therefore should control society.

First he steals code and now this? Jesus.
John McCain, for all his failings, is a better man and was a more qualified candidate than Donald Trump.I'm confused how one leaps from that to "white supremacy". What he said there could have been written in support of McCain in his 1998 candidacy for example.
"I'm not racist, I'm just voting for the racist by simply overlooking the part where he's a racist. Totally not a deal-breaker."So you dont agree with his policies but you are voting for him.....
That's the exact same thing as supporting Trump. You may not like everything he does, but you are still supporting him if you vote for him.Or, thirdly, that you are opposed to his racist views BUT are willing to overlook them for the "greater good" (lol) that the GOP represents.

He didn't "steal code."

You can't overlook the 2Hydrogen and still get water bruh
Not a good argument.

Oh, I agree. But it helps to understand where those people are coming from.That's the exact same thing as supporting Trump. You may not like everything he does, but you are still supporting him if you vote for him.
It also means that you don't view the things he does that you disagree with as being all that bad. For example, if Trump came out in support of underage prostitution, I doubt many of those people would still be looking for the "greater good". I've seen this attitude with surprisingly candid people I've talked to. They might not like something a candidate does, but if it doesn't affect them directly, it's not so bad. If a white person uses this logic to overlook the Trump's plans for minorities, then that is racist. They are literally relying on their race to avoid the negative effects of a Trump presidency.
If you're asking me, ANY vote not for Clinton is a vote for Trump. I know people will decry the two party system and say they shouldn't have to vote for the lesser of two evils, but it's the way the game is set up and you have to play the game. Otherwise true evil wins.
How in the world did he encourage Trump to run last election? Nobody knew who he was 4 years ago.
What do you think "Make America Great Again" means?
I guess you'll just have to improve your reading skills, then.
Man, those people are incredible racist. The people in the video.
I agree. I can't overlook it either. My comment is just that there are people of all races that are overlooking it and this does not make the supporter racists.
No idea what you are talking about, but guessing it has something to do with connecting the dots...
It's not an argument. It's a fact actually. Personally I think Trump is racists. That's my opinion. However, there are people that support him that either don't think he is or overlook it due to being sick of the old and dated political system.
All I'm saying is that a supporter of Trump may be racists, but being a supporter of Trump does not automatically make you a racists.
Yes, because his policies are in favor of white supremacy. Those are the only concrete policies he has.I haven't been following either candidate closely anymore because I'm disgusted with both of them. I'm disgusted with the political game our system has created.
Your interpretation of that slogan seems negatively interpreted because you disagree with Trump's policies.
