Someone PM'd me thread here about myself trying to explain things how they are in Russia when it comes to "gay propaganda". After reading few threads here I can't do anything but laugh at the irony, where thought police on neogaf is so brutal that people go here to vent there frustration under the false names. It's clear as day that disgruntled people on NeoGaf come here to vent their frustration. Else why I was sent the link (won't name the user).
I am a member since 2013, came there for game forum and E3 dank memes. Was really good place, since I didn't bother visiting off-topic. It all lasted until GamerGate when off-topic crowd that has nothing to do with gaming came to Gaming side to push their agenda. I mean I would understand if discussion was biased, but it came to the point where posters, good posters got banned just for voicing different point of view, being as polite as possible and then dog piled by people who have 10k+ messages in off-topic and that I never ever saw in gaming before GG thing. I think this is when industry workers bar few indi devs just GTFO from NeoGaf. You won't see anyone of importance there anymore, they are all inactive for months if not years. I guess it's natural flow of things, where people would flog towards more open formats like Reddit and such.
While I don't like whole tinfoil hat aspect of "Jews did it all" or straight racism from some people of this place, I get why people would be as racist as possible just to spite Neogaf off-topic community and to be that counter weight to toxic SJW culture and inability to accept any point of view other than their.
I don't really care about hiding my name, that's why I am posting with same username as on NeoGaf. It might be stupid to do so, but I don't really care. Also saw some people interested in this topic, so if you have any question about russian society without sugarcoating, you can ask me and I will try to provide no BS answers, even for NeoGaf I had to be as polite as possible since I know how ban-trigger happy some mods are in the discussions that concern "sensitive" topics.
Edit: Damn, that was fast, checked NeoGaf and I got a ban, I am not sure if someone saw me here and banned, or if it's just a ban from Putin interview discussion unrelated to me showing up here, but I visited Gaf couple of hours ago and I wasn't banned yet. It's not perma-ban, but 1 months one saying next one will be permanent. Unless they change to permanent, I guess will fuck off from Off-topic and let some people there enjoy their echo-chambers.

About anti-semitism
I come from Jewish background, I told so couple of times on Gaf but in a way that they didn't like and got banned for that once.
Why background - my grandgrand mother was polish jew that escaped into Russia and settled there during Poland occupation. My grandgrand father, her husband, was captured german soldier. After WW2 many PoW were used to rebuilt cities and infrastructure in so called "labor" camps. He fell in love with her and they got married. The irony of this situation is hilarious. Polish jew refugee and Wehrmacht PoW soldier.
Anyway, that is only non-russian roots I have, others are either Russian or Ukrainian ethnically. Few people in my family stayed jewish, but majority are either atheist or converted to orthodox christianity due to marriage with russian/ukranian people. I myself was raised as orthodox christian (both my father and mother are christian), my aunt is jewish though (my fathers sister). When I was 17 or 18 I outgrew religious bullshit and don't associate with any religion. You can call it atheism or agnosticism. Anyway, I have blonde straight hair, blue eyes and don't look jewish at all.
Now the reason why I brought it up on Gaf was because same flock of SJW who only know things from biased sources attacked "russian anti-semitism", when I pointed out that this is BS I got attacked saying that "look at Sergey Brin! Google founder can't lie", well, all people are biased, he said they were persecuted as jews, truth is, half of political and science elite in USSR was of jewish origin. Not because of some secrete jewish conspiracy, but because in general jewish families had higher level of education and they would make sure their children would get best education possible. They wanted out of USSR and they got out, since late 1970s USSR allowed jews and germans to return and to leave country if they please so. Sergey Brins father was bitter guy with huge ambitions that he couldn't realize in USSR, he was a professor in very prestigious university, still one of the best in the world. He wanted to work in astro-physics but instead had to settle with mathematics, of course he called antisemitism as reason and not that maybe while he was brilliant scientists, he wasn't suitable enough for the task or was better suited in math. Especially considering there were enough german and russian jews in USSR space program as it is. Funny enough he couldn't satisfy his ambition in US either. Another major point of Brin is that they left country with nothing but their belonging. Well duh, in Soviet Union everything was given by welfare. You didn't own your apartment and house, but at the same time you never payed for it. Government provided them. Same would happen to any ethnicity.
Anyway, I made a remark saying that "russians hating jews" is total bullshit from the sheer fact that up to this day, huge chunk of education, science, arts and politics are occupied by people with jewish background. Even in my family there were people that used "jew victimhood card" and migrated to Germany only to end up on welfare or low paying jobs cleaning toilets because they migrated without any language skills with only their children getting back up into decent paying "intellectua"l jobs. They casually talk about anti-semitism when they come visit us as if we are not of same family and as if we don't know what's up. Anyway, my "branch" of family stayed in Russia and is still doing fine, never ever had a problem with Anti-Semetism, even those member that stayed in Jewish faith.
About women
Those that you see online are pretty much mail brides and gold diggers. They are batshit crazy and will do anything in order to migrate to better state. I wouldn't touch them unless you want walking sex doll in exchange for green card.
About China
China is okay, especially if you are foreigner, some places are worse than others. I am currently in Shanghai. I hear Beijing is pretty shit, especially due to air quality. Internet is censored, can't access Google and Gmail since 2014, YouTube, Twitter and Facebook since 2009. But everyone uses VPN to do so anyway, so this thing is a whole big farse and waste of money since it's easily bypassed by locals and by foreigners. I wouldn't mind it if I would have access to Gmail and YouTube, since I don't give a shit about twitter or facebook, but you can't really do anything other than get a VPN which is pretty easy and cost around 70USD per year for decent provider.
About games
I play almost everything, I don't have preference for specific genre, I mean I can enjoy both Dark Souls and CoD4. I mainly play on PC, but also have PS4 and Xbox One for exclusive and when I feel like playing with friends who don't game on PC.
Will be hard to list all games I like, easier to check them through profiles:

"You can call it atheism or agnosticism."
That's the Jew in you.
