The point of having guns is to defend yourselves, Americans.

This was dota in 2008 basically.
Now I’m sad.
- Comment on I am a very liberal person and I have very liberal children, except for one. I'm pretty sure my Gen Z son has been taken in by fascist doctrine. What can I get him for Christmas? 3 weeks ago:
A turd.
If you want something that he would enjoy, Mein Kampft.
I mean, I’m sure at this point he has been exposed to most literature and works to not be a fascist, this won’t get fixed with a gift. Maybe try to have a 1 on 1 conversation with him, let him speak an express why he thinks like that, let him go deep, let him talk about his feelings. Fascism always root on untrue information and resent. If he respects you, you can then talk about where he is wrong, confront the lies, but embrace him as a person.
If you want to win your son back, it will take real work, respect, and love. These people get lied to, and they believe because they are full of resent and want an explanation, someone to pin all the problems, an enemy. Uprooting that is hard, but sometimes family and friends can do it. If family and friends deepen those core beliefs, nothing is going to change.

- Comment on Why does it seem most people, mainly conservatives, against Trans people? Unless I am wrong I never heard of one shooting up a school church or whatever. The ones I have met have been pretty cool. 4 weeks ago:
Conservatives are afraid of change, because they control current status quo. They can’t let people escape from that control, so every nail that is a little outside it’s hole gets hammered.
In short, they rather prefer trans (and broadly queers) to hide or die, unless they can control them. Everyone different from what they can control is a big danger. Imagine if everyone could be like they feel like? Conservatives see this as chaos, they are the guardians of peace and good values, so anything not already controlled by them is the opposite, chaos, destruction, fire.
That’s why they rarely present anything new, their policies and general opinion tend to fight the natural evolution of civilization. USA, as obviously all of the American Continent, was built by immigrants (and slaves). Now they fight immigrants, undocumented ones mostly, because they can’t control them. And we know what happened when ‘the libs’ back then tried to end slavery, you know, other people that they CONTROLLED.
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.
- Comment on Anon doubts WW2 Germany 4 weeks ago:
In their defense, they were so good that they started fighting everyone at the same time. That single mistake is the reason we don’t speak German right now. Current day fascists are much more fragile and stupid in comparison. If they got crushed back then, modern day ones can too.
- Comment on In the event you believe a contract killer is in breach of contract, who adjudicates? 5 weeks ago:
Gen Z really want everything handed to them. I remember the old times, there was no thing as a contract killer, if you hated your enemies, neighbor or the president, you had to kill them yourself. This generation doesn’t know how to do that kind of stuff by themselves anymore.
- Comment on Take-Two is selling its indie games label Private Division 1 month ago:
It was a indie publisher, not developer, big difference. They published titles from indie studios. Publishing is the act of funding, supervision, sometimes giving advice, doing a launch marketing campaign, etc. In short, indie publishers are key for a indie game to make money, as tradicional publishers tend to avoid them because they are high risk.

In one hand, astrology is nonsense. In the other hand, I’m a scorpion reading this and shit I feel seen
- Comment on Besides traditional cable/satellite tv, what's considered "tv" today? 1 month ago:
The word television is composed of two words, tele meaning far away, and vision, self explanatory. So anything that lets you see stuff that’s far way, it’s technically tv. Everything that’s streamed live would match that definition, even if it’s pre recorded, as it was on traditional tv. So I guess Twitch, YouTube streams are our modern tv. Netflix and other recorded media that’s distributed trough internet would not, as blockbuster was not tv back then either.

- Comment on Elden Ring Player to Sue FromSoftware Over High Game Difficulty 4 months ago:
Emotional trauma? Discrimination? Ableism? With this games accessibility has been the ongoing issue, they could argue around that.
- Comment on Elden Ring Player to Sue FromSoftware Over High Game Difficulty 4 months ago:
I agree with the general sentiment of my fellow commenters, however, coffee is hot, and there are labels on the coffee stating that because of a lawsuit like this. What a interesting precedent to games will this set. How you put a disclaimer in a game stating it’s difficulty level? Compared to what?

- Comment on And yet I have to listen to my uncle rant and rave about immigrants and pretend it's okay. 1 year ago:
Technically, you should bring them to a Native American house. Unless is a prostitute pilgrim, then you can bring them to your house, but the custom then is fucking in the nearest bathroom during the dinner, same audio cues apply. Bonus points if you as the host get pegged by them.
- Comment on And yet I have to listen to my uncle rant and rave about immigrants and pretend it's okay. 1 year ago:
It’s Thanksgiving dumbass, prostitutes have no place there, that’s for Christmas. You should bring a Native American to true honor the tradition. If he or she happens to be a prostitute, or you have enough trust, ensure a very loud fuck that night, and please keep yelling “thanks for this” so everyone knows you are thankful.
Jeez, some people just mix shit up
