Lol thanks for that, i stopped watching after minute 5.
- Comment on Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store 2 months ago:
oh no, a person at the head of a company that has created a great environment has profited from it! the horror.
Gabe’s wealth isnt a problem. if you dislike his yach the problem is in the taxation system of the country not the individuals wealth.
BBB hasnt been relavant for decades its a dead ratings system that was bought out years ago by corpo interests. citing them is like citing donald trump on medical treatments for covid.
oh no! 80 employees? the horror. thats literally what software is about. its economics of scale are insane. you dont need more than a couple dozen people if they’re competent.
finally: geoblocking is a feature developers enable. they don’t have to. steam doesnt force them to. if you dont like it don’t by those games. I promise you there are plenty of games you can buy that dont have it.
really if this is all you have as complaints thats pretty small time. compared to google/apple/microsoft/EA/nabisco mistreatment of their employees, funding of fascist politicians, etc. quite frankly I have bigger concerns than gabe being wealthy.
- Comment on Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store 2 months ago:
This is likely 100% misinformation. Only EU lawsuit i found was clone about geo blocking games. Which is a game developer/publisher decision not valves.
From there we can extrapolate the rest of their comment is nonsense.

Yes the point was that the problem is the system design not the voters not being logical enough go watch star trek and follow Spock’s character development. 😂

And the problem with using a shared cultural reference is? 😂
Fucker we use water pipes to explain current and other concepts in high energy physics.
You need to get over yourself.

And your problem remains the same. Your friend experiences the world differently than you. You gf might very well have had a symmetrical face in her mind.
And as for sound healing: define healing. ;) many people find emotional release through music. Which is an example of healing.
You basically just sound like an anal retentive ass afk who hasnt even started to comprehend the world and people around them.

they couldn’t reason their way out of a wet paper bag.
neither can you apparently. you’re confusing reasoning with jargon. they just speak a different dialect.
‘focus energy in your feet’ is tell you to ground yourself, loosen your knees and tighten the core. chi describes focusing your mental attention on something. any person who has snowboarded/skateboarded would understand exactly what that person is saying if they bothered to listen and put the terms into context.
do you consider ‘sound healing’ bogus? what if I told you your cells have receptors that can detect sound vibrations (your ears work right? but its more than that individual cells can too.)? which cause neural impulses which can impact large areas of the brain and body directly and indirectly.
your problem is you dont stop to listen and understand what these people are saying and you just dismiss it because they settled on using a different way of speaking and describing concepts that are nontraditional in western societies.

Incorrect, fptp voting systems suck.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
You mean like running a campaign based on genocide, war hawking, and enabling corporate abuses as a democratic candidate? Yeah i was pretty baffled by that too.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Fun fact: a lot of the crystal healers i interact with are solid people.
Nutty sure but most of them are all about emotional wellness and support and very few are okay with trump or republicans.
It always amuses me when the people who think they’re rational and shit on the mystic groups miss out on wonderful friends and allies.
Kind of like the 2019 campaign when everone shit on Marianne Williamson.
- Comment on How much of a risk is it for naturalized US Citizens (or those with Derivative Citizenship) to protest against the US government, compared to natural-born US Citizens? 3 months ago:
Protesting is the least useful form of collective action. Dont worry if you cant participate in it directly. Its not materially useful.
What you need to do is organize locally and hold your local reps to the fire. Ensure your local elections are run fairly, etc etc.
Help run info ops for naturalized citizens who are comfortable taking direct action. Gather information and make it publicly available. Could be as simple as locating all the charging stations in your state for example. Or dossiers on particularly disgusting ceos.
Plenty of things you can do without directly exposing yourself.

oi, hitting the critical mass of enough users to be interesting, but thankfully not at enough users where it is profitable for them yet. sigh

lol, no the media did that themselves.
- Comment on By canceling town halls, Republicans treat the symptom, not the problem 4 months ago:
fun fact; we know were they live.
- Comment on I’m probably no longer center-left. If you could decide from my thinking, what political affiliation should I research to see if it fits me? 4 months ago:
You sound like you’re experiencing depression.
See a doctor/therapist. Shrooms pulled me out of similar feelings when I was experiencing what it sounds like you’re experiencing. But root causes can be different so you should see a specialist, and these kind of life situations are why politics are important being able to get the care people inevitably need.
Dont worry about the political labels, but as others have said empathy is the important bit. LGBT+ causes are just the latest example of people standing up and essentially saying ‘hey im here too, and i have different needs, would you mind shifting these few things around so I can live similarly to you?’ and being left wing is mostly just saying ‘sure bro’ and making those few shifts.
Often people treat politics as a zero sum game and it causes issues. Unfortunately the conservatives in the dem party dont understand the people that support them so they keep biting the hands that feed them.

- Comment on Torrent of Hate for Health Insurance Industry Follows C.E.O.’s Killing 6 months ago:
100% but they certainly think it does. :)
- Comment on Torrent of Hate for Health Insurance Industry Follows C.E.O.’s Killing 6 months ago:
You’d likely be correct. there are also a host of firearm laws at the federal level. the use of a fake id also has federal implications.
sadly the other commentor is just a twit who thinks everyone who dislikes the democrats and refuses to vote for either party is somehow more misinformed than they are and are to blame for their preferred candidates loss, and iirc that individual was also one of the losers carrying water defending israel’s genocide during the campaign. pretty disgusting all around. 🤷

Na fam. you don’t understand my point. now get lost cretin and take your harris’ baggage with you. no one wants it.
- Comment on Torrent of Hate for Health Insurance Industry Follows C.E.O.’s Killing 6 months ago:
No, people keep expecting the democrats to actually support policies and do what is fucking necessary to protect they well being and ensure a strong middle class.
- democrats had the option to kill the fillibuster to get laws passed. they choose not to.
- democrats had the option it ignore the parliamentarian when it came to minimum wage increase.
- democrats had the option to pack the SCOTUS to resolve roe v wade. (see filibuster)
- democrats had the option to not support a genocidal nation.
- democrats had the option to not break strikes. they chose to break them.
need I go on? kindly fuck off. we have no interest in dealing with your nonsense.
