To be fair, the kind of people the meme is making fun of tend to map pretty closely to the domestic terrorists that go on mass shootings because they have to interact with anyone other than a cis white male.
So the picture being of an actual war criminal kinda works, in a dark way.
Metamagic Adept so you can cast Toll the Dead as a Quickened Cantrip.
What, when you want someone dead you make sure they can’t be stabilized by nearby clerics.
While Capitalism might be relatively new in the history of humanity, greed isn’t and and in many ways Capitalism can be argued to be just greed as a virtue.
Now greed, that in many ways has been described as the root of all evil. Yes, there are arguments about Pride being worse or more fundamental, but greed is persistent and eternal in how often it comes up.
To be fair, the only reason I sound like an accelerationist, is because the building is clearly on fire right now and I’m presuming its structural at this point. So yeah, while I wish it didn’t get to this point, it feels likely that we will have to rebuild things from the ground up.
Personally, I really hate this diagram. It feels like its used far more to tar a huge part of the population as “weak” and therefore not worth considering.
Now, there us an element of truth to this in that it probably is not a coincidence that fascism is on the rise right after the generation that fought in WW2 mostly died off. But I’d much rather blame the current problems on thr handful of plutocrats who have been sabatoging things for gerations now, than claim its due to some ineitablilty with strength and generations.
And not subtly like banks were back in WW2. Straight up endorsement.
Basically. I didn’t know that the developer was Palestinian, as 404 merely mentioned the developer currently resides in Brazil, but yeah the point still stands. You can have a solo developer make a good game around a good message, a bad game around a good message, or any combination in between.
Its why the discussion around this game mildly annoys me, as the asset flip nature of the game really gives a sour comparison to other more famous games with “controversial” scenes. No Russian, for example.
Ultimately, yes people should be equally able to put out a bad game that tries to tell the story of Hamas as they are to put out CoD.
Shitty “political” shovelware deserves the same respect as every other instance of shovelware on Steam. Everyone ignoring it.
Terrorists and school shooters. Frankly, if cops were as gun happy towards Nazis as they are everyone else, we wouldn’t have quite the fascist problem.
Now, I’m not saying an idiot with a gun is the best solution to those issues, but it would be a solution.
I mean, if google wants to set their money on fire by having multiple data centers running full force to apply “AI” to everything without people asking or any way to profit from it, that’s on them.
I would complain about how much energy this is wasting in light of climate change, but this is innately unsustainable. Google will either widen up, or go bankrupt from the insane expense increase, given this doesn’t make them any money.
Repressing. He’s merely doing the minimum California demands of him.
Seriously, he’s still fucking hated for blatantly throwing trans people under the bus, handing out with alt-right grifters, and finally acting like the rich scumbag everyone knew he was but no one quite had proof yet.
