Well that’s kind of a weird quirk to have.

OP have you ever been to Kent State? Or Cobbs Creek, Philadelphia? I hear they’re lovely destinations.

USSR, I want it back

Well… I mean I’m not having kids either, but someone has to to continue the species, nobody needs to eat meat.

Cycling is cool but that’s small-fry compared to if we all went vegan (or even just vegetarian)…

Noita, so confusing and not really very much fun IMO.

The default site literally doesn’t work on mobile anyway so it’s not like it makes much difference.

This game looked like trash from the announcement trailer, anyone lining up to pre-order a Bethesda game though, what can you do? Some people want to get their pockets picked.

True. It’s not like microtransactions are the biggest issue with our world to begin with, I just see them as a symptom of the complete drive towards nightmare rentier capitalism where nobody will own anything except the hyper rich and we’ll all have to pay subscription fees for every little service in our lives.

How is that any different from what I’ve been saying? Liberals from beehaw also have ‘mass downvoted’ people for being communist or pro China etc, but does that mean everyone from that community should be blocked? As for good faith discussion you’re just defining comments you don’t agree with as being inherently bad faith. I mean I’m sure there’s some comments just like ‘kill yourself lol’ that are completely without merit but like I said it just seems like an instinctual anti communist reaction.

Well I haven’t been on this site for very long so maybe I’ll see what you mean eventually. I still think it’s best in general to not fracture this already-tiny community though.

But how do you differentiate ‘brigading’ from just being outside the ideological orthodox of a given community? Shouldn’t bad actors just be banned personally?

I wish artists wouldn’t use Twitter, it might be convenient for them but it’s absolutely abysmal for the users, it’s impossible to do any kind of searching as is very easy on boorus.

To be fair it’s not like I know what lemmygrad does, I only joined yesterday, but it just seems like typical ‘tankiephobia’, I don’t exactly agree with MLs on everything either but some of what they get accused of is just beyond the pale. I mean generally if someone is a western liberal they don’t get endlessly accused of being a mass war crime apologist even though that’s basically what the ‘war on terror’ was.

Behaviour like what though? Disagreeing? I don’t even know what ‘sealioning’ means, it basically seems like just saying ‘this person has different fundamental assumptions to me therefore they’re acting in bad faith’.

To me, whenever I have to put in more cash after the initial purchase I pretty much feel exploited. Not saying I never buy DLC but often what you get in DLC is nowhere near comparable to the hard work put in by mod developers who aren’t getting paid at all (eg HOI IV). I think things will just keep getting worse unless governments put a stop to it.

Well it’s not really that important of a news story, he was killed by someone in his personal life just like 90% of murders, but rightists wanted to use it as a reason to institute anti homeless pogroms because ‘San Francisco is out of control!!!’

What a ridiculous false dichotomy, obviously subs which are just creating outright machine spam should be blocked but the current policy is just creating complete echo chambers where the orthodoxy of the admins isn’t challenged.

And that doesn’t apply to liberals and every other ideology on this site? Every person has a political view which affects their opinions

I feel these ‘seasons of content’ have limited value, it’s much better to produce something fully functional in the first place. We’ve all gotten used to paying more for less. Of course we can say ‘constant purchases is more profitable for studios’ but does that mean we should accept it? I’ve never been impressed by live service games.

Can you post a non paywalled link next time? Thank you.

Seems like an interesting idea anyway.
