Yes, it is funny and yes it very much highlights the reason why “nerds dress like slobs” and “smash players reek of feces” are painfully true stereotypes and there should be more effort to explain to people what a belt and a shower are.
But this was REAL fucked up. Taking pictures of people’s asses and posting them online with no permission. Imagine if those were women in low rider jeans or cleavage or whatever. It is a massive invasion of privacy (and particularly a “safe space” given how many MtG players view things) to create and post “sexualized” photos mocking people.
Is this a joke? You can’t see the guy’s face and his crack is exposed for the world to see. You expose that to the public, and this is fair game. Wouldn’t make a difference if it were a woman.
He got banned after posting, iirc.
It was a pretty serious ban too. 18 months
Honestly? it should have been longer.

This is a shit take, maybe the worst take I’ve seen in a while, so much so I had to write this comment.
If you’re in public you’re in public. You are responsible for your image, if you sit in a chair with your ass crack visible that is on you.

Ah, got it. Just so long as he was asking for it by dressing like a slut.
I’m fairly certain everybody thought it was hilarious except for Wizards of the Coast.
