is more important than selfish desire to be her friend

I think you’re probably having too many assumptions about what people are saying, which betrays an inflexibility even stubbornness.

Worrying about approval is something weak people do, and weak people make poor parents.

“My way or the highway”, eh? That style of parenting went out of fashion for a reason.

LW is a centrist instance, if anything.

with that mentality, it will be.

well, lemmy.world has defederated or has been defederated by a bunch of progressive instances.

The peeps focusing on finding out scheming prompted an llm to generate scheming. Yawn This is the only surprising if you don’t know that llms are fancy autocompletes.

I don’t know un-installed it after 2 games. I wanted to like it, but the shooting was boring, and I can’t be bollocksed to study 3 pages of items.

This is already happening even with Aaa games. The initial purchase doesn’t seem to stop them anyway.

And no I don’t worry about it. I think if there’s motivation we’ll figure out the way. People won’t just ship making or playing good games.

I don’t care what anyone says the Scorpion - Johnny Cage fight was great and the soundtrack is a classic for a reason.

Woman must have been an antideluvian vampire to require such extreme measures.

That hijack is one of their worst blunders though as pirates are very romanticized in culture. They just made us look way cooler than the computer nerds we are.

I’ve been at this a long time 😅

if so, then check the other posts in that series.

OK that’s pretty good.

You only think they’re pushing in the same direction because you’re on the outside looking in. As the op points out, they think the same about leftists.

The liberal to fascist pipeline is a thing ofc, but it doesn’t represent unity of action.

I’m just not so sure it’s worth it. If the cable frays, I still have to pay $ to replace it every time.

There’s no contradiction in acknowledging major problems and still exerting what little influence you do have.

I just disagree this is any sort of influence instead of a palliative.

How does that logic follow? Assuming you both have the same values and are trying to achieve the same thing, then a solution that works for one person will work just as well for another.

You are quoting a rhetorical question. The point I’m making here is that if someone isn’t an anarchist and therefore doesn’t do direct action, then seeing even anarchists take part in elections, reinforces to them the idea that elections work well enough.

well what’s important is that you get to feel smugly superior.

anarchism isn’t the lack of rules. Nor is it many little kingdoms.
