It’s not the Dems fault that so many people didn’t give a shit about marginalized groups.

I’ve been saying this for a long time.

The people who stayed home or voted third party are still trying to blame Dems for this, because the Dems didn’t try hard enough and “didn’t inspire them”.

Yeah? Well if you need a politician to inspire you to show up and fill out a piece of paper that will help protect marginalized groups, then you’re a piece of shit.

I’m not a Dem. Never will be. But I understood what was on the line.

Gaza is gonna get glassed, my gay and trans loved ones are in immediate danger, among God knows how much more heinous shit is going down.

They said they were gonna do this. And a huge group of people who wanted to be seen as morally pure decided to sit it out to feel superior.

You’re not superior. You’re a monster. The Dems shouldn’t have to “inspire” you to stop a fascist regime. It’s American exceptionalism at it’s fucking worst.

Fuck ALL of them. All of em.

Thanks for the essay I’m not gonna read

I’m just returning the attitude you’re giving others.

If you don’t enjoy how it makes you feel, maybe work on how you talk to people.

Cause all you got handed to you was the same energy you were throwing out.

You’re referring to something from the initial release. Which isn’t relevant anymore.

That’s like complaining that Bethesda hasn’t released the Creator’s Kit for Skyrim (since it was a legitimate complaint at one time) and expecting it to be a solid addition to the conversation.

Don’t be a dick just because you’re a decade out of the loop.

I’m not misrepresented anything by pointing out the splitting of hairs.

Why do I care if you think I’m a jerk? You hopped in on a conversation and didn’t add a single thing to it. You just showed up to point out what you think is a character flaw and not comment on the actual subject.

You aren’t impressing anyone. Off with ya

He literally said “I give zero shits about his next game”

No, I’m pointing out how he keeps moving goalposts and is making an argument in bad faith, for reasons that are selfish. When that is pointed out, he tries to act like he doesn’t give a shit.

He’s being a jerk because he doesn’t get to play a game he wants released, and his answer is to slap on some authority.

Who cares if the game is NEVER released? I don’t. He’s made his mark. He can take all the time he needs/wants.

Videogames bring on the most demanding and impatient fans you can find. If he can’t handle pushback (which he can’t, because now he’s expecting apologies for the sin of disagreeing with him), then he isn’t the voice of reason here.

For someone who doesn’t give a shit, you certainly have gone through a lot of trouble to know everything you can about this man.

I’m not gonna apologize to someone who can’t even keep their own narrative consistent.

“I give zero shits about his next game”

“If he keeps this up I’ll never get to play his next game!”

Dude shut up. You aren’t fooling anyone. Concerned Ape can make his stuff however the hell he wants.

I’d easily take less evil than fascist evil. For anyone to not be able to distinguish the two is such a failure.

Heroically ignorant and without nuance.

Hush, child

If you had the power to save only one life would you take it, or let them die because you don’t like your options?

You aren’t as morally pure as you think. We have to do what we can with what we have.

Now they’re all going to die.

Blatantly incorrect. They jumped on the sword to protect a legal precedent concerning emulation.

If the courts had ruled in favor of Nintendo, guess what? That means ALL emulators are on the chopping block. All of them. They knew.

Once you have case history to back you up, it becomes a domino effect.

This has absolutely nothing to do with cowardice.

Using curse words doesn’t mean I’m “so offended”. If that’s your bar, that’s a you problem.

The hell he is. He hasn’t been coherent in years. He just says his insane shit with confidence

For normal people? It doesn’t matter in the slightest.

For MAGA? Who knows. Probably something something trans ruining society

No it doesn’t. Didn’t for me. I lived in a twenty year old Ford explorer for almost a year pursuing mine. Didn’t succeed or make it big, but I wouldn’t have traded it for the world. Not every dream relies on college loans, dude. Not if you’re an artist.

I’d go so far as to say man, many dreams people have don’t require a degree.

And if they do? DO IT ANYWAY. I attended two years of college for film. Never got a career out of it. Still paying off my debt. Still don’t regret ANY of it.

Still getting by on the strings of my butt hairs in my 40s. Still wouldn’t take any of it back.

Never sucked the love for either dream out of it. Did I get depressed? Sure. Did I go through a lot of shit and a lot of disappointment? Definitely. I’m two years out from failing in my latest attempt at pursuing one of my many dreams. You couldn’t pay me all the money in the world to take it back.

You’re speaking to me… about me. About my experiences and telling me how it made me feel. Sorry my dude, I can’t agree with you.

Take those chances. The memories are worth it. The stories are worth it. The lessons you learn along the way are definitely worth it, homie

Counterpoint to all the young people: Never listen to ANYONE who tells you not to follow your passion.

It’s better to try, fail and learn than it is to grow old and wonder what could have been

Travel. Try new things. Eat food you’ve never tried before.

Get into the habit of reading. Actual books, not just things like lemmy.

Realize that literally every person you meet is a walking story, just like yourself

Brush your fuckin teeth.

Also: Floss. Seriously. Take care of your damn teeth. They’re important.

They haven’t been reasonable since Nixon
