- Comment on Patrick Stewart Reflects on 'Star Trek' at 60: Why He Wants More Spinoffs 5 hours ago:
Hear me out: an anthology style series about the lesser talked about sides of the Federation and other groups.
A research team spending a year on an asteroid studying strange readings. A look at the Star Fleet weapons research lab where they are developing new lasers. An episode that follows a Ferengi pawn ship as he travels from place to place trying to upsell his wares. A Star Fleet inspector who checks in on stations that haven’t had an official inspection in decades. A power struggle at the Klingon company that makes Raktajino. A Romulan crew that stops a galactic level threat that no one else ever hears about due to their secretive nature. The monotony inside Relay Outpost 247-B as it’s skeleton crew receives and transmits messages from starships at the edge of uncharted space.
I know a lot of the charm of Star Trek is following a familiar cast of characters, but it doesn’t HAVE to be that way. I think an anthology would be really interesting and could show sides of the universe that serialized show would avoid or struggle with.

Racial profiling is bad. Profiling based on where you are is not necessarily bad. If I were to find myself in a bad part of town and a group of guys came up to me, it wouldn’t matter if they were black, Hispanic, white, or Asian; I’m going to be nervous. Meth and other hard drugs know no race.
- Comment on Why is so difficult to organize a strike 1 day ago:
Probably the last 4 decades of strikes and protests amounting to absolutely fucking nothing. That tends to put people off them.

It’s the Totenkopf. You know the skull on the hats of every Nazi portrayed in media for the last 50 years?
Come on man, this is a losing battle. It wasn’t some obscure symbol. He knew what he was getting, just as anyone who gets a Nazi tattoo knows what they are getting. What, are you going to try to claim that someone with two lighting bolts is just a big fan of lightning?
- Comment on Context is for people that read US news 2 days ago:
Like, the two candidates are a literal, not-even-hiding-it, Nazi vs. a person with a Nazi tattoo?
If there is a situation where those are the only candidates, I would take it as a sign to move out of my city, state, or country.
- Comment on Context is for people that read US news 2 days ago:
Please, feel free to give me examples of non-shitty people who got Nazi tattoos. There’s just not that many of them.
A Nazi tattoo is not something you accidentally get. Most artists will refuse to do them. You have to specifically seek out an artist who is willing to do one, and at that point, claiming ignorance on what you are getting is an excuse that would only work on idiots.
My philosophy is simple; Nazi tattoo = irredeemable fuckwit. I’m not going to be flexible when it comes to Nazi’s. It’s insane to me that someone would suggest otherwise.
- Comment on Context is for people that read US news 2 days ago:
A Nazi tattoo? Yes. I am saying that.
If someone had a Nazi tattoo at any point in their life, I would never vote for them. They will forever be a piece of shit. I don’t see how this is a difficult concept to grasp.
- Comment on Context is for people that read US news 2 days ago:
I got absolutely shit on for saying that I didn’t support him due to my long standing policy of not supporting people who get Nazi tattoos. People falling over themselves to say he had grown a lot since getting it, or that he didn’t know what it meant when he got it (bullshit). People saying I was some Collins loving conservative just because I refused to support a man who got a Nazi tattoo on his chest.
I hope this is a lesson to the idiots who thought I was being unreasonable and unforgiving. It takes a special kind of asshole to knowingly get a Nazi tattoo. Those kinds of people don’t grow out of it. They don’t change. They might get shamed enough to cover it up, but they will remain an asshole. The only good that someone with a Nazi tattoo can do is to throw themselves in a wood chipper and become fertilizer.

- Comment on PlayStation sales just had its worst May in 25 years, and Xbox's was the worst ever—Meanwhile, the Nintendo Switch 2 just became the second-fastest-selling console in US history; and other insights 1 week ago:
I am a PC gamer. The only consoles I’ve purchased in the past 20 years have been Nintendo, it doesn’t take a genius to understand why.
This is the same case for pretty much every PC gamer I know IRL.
Comparing Nintendo to other game companies is like comparing ATVs to cars. They’re both still vehicles. Both have 4-wheels, an engine, gears, etc. But it would take a special kind of idiot to look at both and come to the conclusion that the only reason people buy ATV’s is because they’re too afraid or inexperienced to buy a regular car.
A PC can do anything an XBox or Playstation can do. It can not do everything a Wii or a Switch can do without some finicky emulation software and specialized hardware.

That’s because the US isn’t a capitalist country. It’s an Oligarchy.

Its such a weird thing to watch from a PC gamer perspective. The game won’t release on PC for another year or longer after consoles. I’m really not feeling like I’m missing out or anything, if anything it’s like I’m standing back and watching a potential train wreck from afar.
Rockstar has been hyping this game up like it’s the next coming of Christ and there’s just no way it lives up to that much hype. People complaining about the lack of physical media, or the confusion surrounding paid DLC. I’ll just sit back and watch what happens. If it releases flawlessly with zero issues, then I’ll look forward to the PC release. If it crashes and burns, well they have a year to fix it and to convince me it’s worth it.

It’s strange, I’ve literally had zero issues with them. I have had to refund orders a few times, and it’s usually automatically done in seconds. Maybe it’s different in different areas.
- Comment on I want a new retro Final Fantasy 2 weeks ago:
It’s about the journey, not the destination, and the journey has plenty of twists and turns. You may know the start, you may know the end, I promise you do not know how you get there.
Is the Lord of the Rings bad because you know they’re going to destroy the ring in Mount Doom and defeat Sauron by the end?
I won’t say it’s absolutely the game for everyone, but I really don’t think you’d be as disappointed as you’re expecting. Personally, I was VERY invested in the characters by the end.
- Comment on I want a new retro Final Fantasy 3 weeks ago:
Have you played Sea of Stars? Absolutely, drop dead GORGEOUS pixel game with phenomenal music. Its not the hardest game, but it is a true love letter to old school JRPGs. One of those games that sticks with you long after you’ve beaten it.
It’s on Game Pass if you have it, otherwise you can grab it on Steam. It’s worth every penny.
- Comment on I want a new retro Final Fantasy 3 weeks ago:
I mean, there is a somewhat hd version available on steam that came recently. Still has the polygons of the original, but looks WAY better; much more clean. Not sure if that’s what you’re looking for, but I’ve been enjoying it quite a bit.

As you can see from the above example, the users pushing the whole “America is the only bad country! China is amazing and never does anything wrong!” rhetoric are overwhelmingly from a single instance; lemmy.ml.
No matter the topic of conversation, an .ml user just can’t help themselves from virtue signaling in the comments about how much they hate imperialism and how they know that anything bad about China/Russia/NK is literally all Western propaganda.
