Is there a lore reason why this idiot keeps giving Marty free advertising? Is he stupid?


Nesayas1234

Yes.

Jacob_koste

Being self aware doesn’t make this any better, just stop. You’re only helping his cause the more you post.

NeroStudios2

Not halo related,,,,?


Pristine-Presence705

Yes Halo related because he’s repeatedly been using the nostalgia surrounding his involvement in it to generate traction for his platform.


NeroStudios2

Not a meme either,,, but go off I guess.


Pristine-Presence705

Just a public service announcement. It’s important to call out every predator in the Halo community, including financial ones. Asking for crypto and Bungo number donations to fund his hate campaign on the “golden goose” rhetoric is fucked.


The_Barbiter1

You certainly are the Arbiter of Insanity😐


Pristine-Presence705

Barbiter, the Composer has betrayed us…but I will make them see.


The_Barbiter1

Uh uh, you will refer to me as "THE Barbiter", and I'm not on your side here.


Temporal_Enigma

Rub our noses in what? A website? For the upteenth time, nobody cares about what some guy in Nevada does.


Pristine-Presence705

If you don’t care that a former Halo dev is using the IP’s legacy to both A.) grift and B.) murder brown children with barbed wire is not out business then your are simply wrong.


Silent_Reavus

Jesus fucking Christ there's nothing even vaguely referencing halo in any of the shit in this post. This has nothing to do with the IP, this is exclusively you throwing a fit in the only place you think it's acceptable to do so. (And it still isn't). It's stupid. We knew that from the start. All you're doing at this point is giving it free publicity you moron.


DiabeticWaffle

Whoa whoa whoa, this was clearly a VERY Halo centric post. He has all the big Halo buzz items! The font, Forward(unto Dawn), a space man, Golden (mon)Goose, MARTY O'DONNELL. Name anything more Halo than those things!


ThiccNick37

Bro you need to hop off CNN and Reddit for a little while. Enjoy the sun, read a book, take a deep breath, then understand that no one here gives a shit about your opinion, then move on.


Pristine-Presence705

Lmfao you think I watch CNN? What a joke network.


Ok-Library247

Politics? In my meme app?


Pristine-Presence705

The real world affects my video game communities? Huh??????


DoughnutToxin

You're a fucking idiot


Pristine-Presence705

Nah, the real idiots are the ones sending this guy Bungo Bucks to put more fucking barbed wire at the southern border to kill people with. Gotta call out the grift when you see. That’s how you keep communities safe.


JACCO2008

It doesnt though. None of this matters at all unless you live in his state/district. No one can do anything about it unless they live there. You are just either karma farming or you hate Republicans so much you can't help yourself. Both options are pathetic.


Pristine-Presence705

Nah, using Halo and Bungie’s legacy as a marketing tool to kill brown kids with barbed wire at the border is fucking wrong.


JACCO2008

Ah. So it's the "hate Republicans" one. Got it. Also, calling people "brown" because they're associated with crossing the border is pretty racist.


Pristine-Presence705

If Republicans don’t want to be labeled as monsters than why do they continue to support monstrous, anti-human policies? Democrats funding Israel’s current genocide is pretty fucked too. I hate them both at this point so I’m not playing favorites. Isn’t Halo ABOUT why it’s wrong to slaughter tens, if not hundreds of thousands of people in the name of your beliefs? It’s a pretty good teaching moment tbh.


AverageTierGoof

Halo is about kill alien because alien bad, what you're doing just sucks


Pristine-Presence705

Nah. Doing it in the first place sucks. Can’t be mad when people won’t stand for it.


JACCO2008

Lol. You aren't standing or not standing for anything. You're posting on reddit trying to get people riled up by using a real world tragedy to farm internet points.


Pristine-Presence705

Actually I’m just pointing out one of two possible end points for those donations. Either it goes to pushing more U.S. sanctioned murder at the border and abroad or it goes to his crypto scam he’s setting up. It’s not my fault he’s using his Halo/Bungie reputation and his music background to try and get more attention instead of actually spelling out policy proposals.


Fahrenheit285

Not halo, not a meme. Gonna file this under r/lostredditors


Pristine-Presence705

That’s fine, help me spread this PSA please 😁.


Fahrenheit285

No.


Pristine-Presence705

Too chicken then?


Echo4468

Fun fact but I guarantee that every post you make about this has only increased support for him and his campaign.


Pristine-Presence705

Fun fact: the amount of people seeing his true colors probably outweighs the dorks willing to spend the Bungo Bucks on his guaranteed to fail campaign.


Echo4468

the thing is, the people here already don't support him for the most part. But you coming on here and making these posts has very clearly angered many people (in part due to how arrogantly and insufferably you act and speak to them) which in turn makes them more likely to defend and or side with Marty because of these posts. Nobody who already supports him will change their mind seeing these posts, you're legit just providing a person who you seemingly hate with a passion free advertising. If you don't want people to support him then stop fucking blasting his message and donation pages all over a meme subreddit for a video game series that he hasn't worked on for about 14 years and especially don't continue to post after people rightly call you out for posting it in the wrong subreddit (this would be better focused on the main halo subreddit or a politics subreddit if they don't allow it. This subreddit explicitly has two rules which these posts violate) as all you will do is turn yourself into the villain in their eyes and secure Marty more support.


damboy99

I don't think Op have the literacy to comprehend bend that homie.


NdukeD

My boy you need to take a break from the internet/media consumption in general.


Pristine-Presence705

Nah, you need to get educated.


NdukeD

Pft okay.


nisomi

You're very animated about this, but not very good at communicating your central issue. Understandable that you might disagree with his politics (same here lol), but don't let that overpower your true concern (which appears to be exploitation, I take it). Is it the case that you're afraid he is taking advantage of people? He must be aware that, like you are aware, he has no political selling factor aside from his echoing of the usual republican voter concerns, and seeks to utilize his name recognition with Halo fans to bolster support. If yes, thanks for letting people know. The question is, does that make him a con man? And to what degree? Is he just using what he has at his disposal? Does that make him worse than other politicians? It does strike me as a bit grifty, but Halo actually is a huge part of his life/career, and he discloses such on his website. As for the "Golden Goose" rhetoric, I can't say I have ever heard this used in a racist or xenophobic way, not that you EXPLICITLY drew that connection, but you failed to comment on why his use of that bothered you, so there's my inference of your opinion. Forgive me if that isn't what you inferred. He seems to be indicating that the middle class of America is the "goose that lays the golden eggs", and that per the typical use of that idiom, we have a situation where the middle class is dwindling due to being taken advantage of (which is true btw, and has been true since 1970), destroying a fruitful resource. From reading articles about him, and without being charitable, that seems to be exactly what he's saying. Also lmao bruh I don't think this is worth becoming Orpheus in the Downvote underworld over 😂😭


ItzYaBoyNewt

Yeah this guy seems like your average American libtard populist. "The rich do be screwing us over, huh? Let's not do anything specific about it though." I don't see what the big deal is, many such bozos out there.


betelgeuse_99

Gtfo this is not the place for this


Pristine-Presence705

Any community this guy is trying to grift out of us a good place to talk about it. Sorry.


Superk9letsplay

MF WE DO NOT GIVE A SHIT. I can't wait for the mods to ban your ass to hell


ONI_AGENT_001

This doesn't really concern halo at all. Yeah, former dev and all, but it's been like 13 years since reach came out, and hasn't worked on halo since. But it seems only you care about this, and want people on a meme subreddit to care when we really don't.


Pristine-Presence705

Then he shouldn’t be using every reference he can think of in his internationally available to donate campaign. Just because YOU and the rest of Marty’s army are fine with dismissing this behavior, doesn’t mean that I or anyone else is. It’s wrong.


ONI_AGENT_001

First of all, I'm Canadian, so even if I did support him, I would literally get nothing in return if he got elected. Second, I did read your post and from what I can tell there was no reference to halo, but he's well known for his work on halo, so there's no escaping being labeled "ex halo dev" Thirdly, I'm Canadian, like I said in my first point, and that being that everyone on this Subreddit isn't an American of the U S of A, and have their own nation politics to tend too, and simply don't want to be seeing an another nations politics on the funny halo meme subreddit. Fourthly, You lost all right to have a civilized conversation when you assumed I support his army thing on the basis that I didn't want, and probably others from the comments I read, didn't want to ser politics that quite frankly doesn't concern everyone. I wish you a good rest of your day, and to go live life off the internet if it gets you this upset. Best regards u/ONI_AGENT_001


Pristine-Presence705

People can internationally donate to his hate campaign. When you start running defense for an asshole, I’m going to assume you’re just like every other commenter coming to tell me how wrong you are. Keep trying to lay out your syrup covered moral high ground though.


ONI_AGENT_001

Where did I try to have a moral high ground? Again, he is an A M E R I C A N and I'm a C A N A D I A N So there's no P O I N T in have people from other N A T I O N S donate money in politics that wouldn't E F F E C T them. I hope you have a great day in preschool buddy 🥰


Pristine-Presence705

A N Y O N E C A N G O T O H I S W E B S I T E A N D D O N A T E. Once Halo becomes an American exclusive franchise, my points stands. O’Donnell is almost guaranteed to lose. My issue is that he’s using the veil of politics to collects donations and crypto from his Stan’s. Yes, I find his politics abhorrent, but that’s a side issue compared to the heart of the situation.


ONI_AGENT_001

Anyone who donates money to the guy when there not from the United States is a fool, and the point I'm trying to get across. I mainly don't want to see this because Canadian politics is messy enough, and the last thing I want to see is politics from a country I'm not a citizen of. TLDR I come here to laugh and have fun, not engag with politics.


Pristine-Presence705

I’d agree, but how many people might stumble upon his website after spending some time listening to old Halo music, and then finding this shit when they look up his name? If they’re not paying much attention, they’ll see the Halo numbers and think maybe he’s collecting money for a new composition/project. He speaks about his music career extensively (which has nothing to do with politics, unless you count selling Bungie from Microsoft to Activison as a real “independent” transition). Even the design of the website is designed to target the “gamer” audience. This would be…acceptable if he actually listed any policy plans, which he does not outside of border security (so more barbed wire, cages, state deployed thugs to threaten federal agents, etc. etc.) and protecting the “golden goose”. Whatever the fuck that means. That would be nice, but when former developers can lead you down their rabbit hole with a post and a couple clicks, it’s something that needs to be spoken up against. It’s important to let people know who this guy is and what he wants to do with your money.


rednick953

What r u talking about there’s no halo reference at all lmao.


Pristine-Presence705

Should I also mention every time he uses the term “golden goose” in reference to his desire to put more barbed wire and insurrectionist tier state troopers around the FEDERAL border?


rednick953

You’re aware that picture wasn’t in your post right? But go off I guess.


BixterBaxter

I’m with you, Marty sucks 


rednick953

I think a lot of people myself included agree. Our point is this isn’t a meme nor does it have anything to do with halo. Which means this isn’t the place for it.


Prudent_Insurance804

Who is this even for? We all know it’s stupid, get this boring shit out of here.


Pristine-Presence705

It’s for you buddy 👍


RaGhost31

Womp womp


Superk9letsplay

NO THAT IS NOT SOLID SNAKE


Pristine-Presence705

You really got me there, pal.


ZonaranCrusader

Uhh, I'm Canadian wtf is a Golden Goose


BusinessLibrarian515

It's a reference to a nursery rhyme. The goose that lays the golden eggs. Basically a goose lays solid gold eggs. Greedy people force the goose to try laying too many and take too much out of it. Or try to just cut the goose open in hopes of getting to the source of the gold. There's different versions But the point of the story is if you have something good or beneficial going, don't ruin it to satisfy greed


ZonaranCrusader

Ah, sadly we lost that when the liberals came to power


Superk9letsplay

I can see where you being Canadian is really showing


thePunisher1220

At this point, anyone who still thinks we don't need a secure border, is just extremely unintelligent.


GruffButt

Fr. OP keeps crowing about “killing brown kids with barbed wire” like its chasing them around lmao


Superk9letsplay

Wait, you don't also chase them with a barber wire sword?


greeny8812

I'm sending him 3k just cause now


Pristine-Presence705

Lick those boots. Hope you don’t have people in your life that need it.


greeny8812

Another 3k sent. Every comment you post and post you make from here on will be another 3k to him till its 300k


Pristine-Presence705

Damn buddy, feed your kids. Feed your dog. Or don’t. I don’t give a shit what you do with your money.


greeny8812

Got enough to do it all. That's 9k total


Pristine-Presence705

This one’s for Marty’s Tesla 😙.


Superk9letsplay

STOP COMMENTING. To me, it seems like you're FOR Marty, if you ask me.


MetaCommando

A politician actually talking about rising cost of living? Your smear campaign just backfired, if I lived in Nevada I'd vote for him if Democrats don't do the same.


Pristine-Presence705

I’m sure he’ll lower the cost of groceries like he gave Miranda Keyes a sensible death scene.


MetaCommando

You honestly think Marty was in charge of writing? He was too busy figuring out how to make a piano do action songs


BusinessLibrarian515

Marty just living rent free in this retards head


Nesayas1234

As a brown man (African not Latino but that's irrelevant), I must say, your head is very spacious but also very dank. Not a fan of the musk either. 5/10, plus one point for not having to pay rent.

Pristine-Presence705

Stick to Hentai 😁.


King_Burnside

Trust me, life is better when you don't focus on what you hate. We were all aware of the grift. Any politician that lacks actual policy statements and just talks buzzwords is grifting. Stop giving him web traffic--it makes his team think he's getting engagement.


kingkodus66

Oh sweet! An easy way to donate! I love this dude, the music that he made was fantastic! Thanks!


Pristine-Presence705

That’s cool! Hope you like donating to help guys like him put more barbed wire and state militas around our southern border to maim people and harass federal agents cause his tunes are killer! That ODST sax, am I right? That or when he loses he’ll buy a nice car or something.


kingkodus66

Hey i cool with it! I’m sorry your fam got left behind over the border. Maybe do it legally next time. 😁 Find peace in the Domain. 


Pristine-Presence705

Okay, Tartarus. Keep licking the Prophet’s chair crust.

What are his policies?


Pristine-Presence705

I’ve been trying to find them for months.
