You: “I don’t understand why you find this fun”

Also you: “I am TOTALLY the target audience for this game”

Also you: “This gameplay is totally boring, I hate it”

Thank you for confirming the accuracy of my assessment.

If you were the target audience, you would enjoy what NMS has to offer.

You have stated clearly that you’d rather be playing Wing Commander - a wildly different combat sim/rpg hybrid whose only similarity to NMS is that they both contain spacecraft.

Growing up means understanding that there’s a wide array of things that you’re just not the target audience for and that’s okay.

Proof that all it takes to sound like a conspiracy theorist is to know the names of four real, actual things the CIA has done.

It’s far less typing to just say “I’m not the target audience for this game.”

There’s plenty of scholarship on the topic. There are a number of judiciary-side changes that arose out of the LA Riots.

And no, violence isn’t romantic. I was in Seattle in '99 for the WTO affair. Violence is simply an unfortunate necessity when power accumulates into the wrong hands.

Billionaires are perpetrating extinction-level ecological crimes against humanity. They won’t voluntarily stop. So, it is incumbent on the rest of us to remember that politics is comprised of three boxes - soap, ballot, and cartridge. When the first two fail to curb tyranny, we must resort to the third box because self-defense is a basic right of all living beings.

Incorrect. Spoken like someone who wasn’t around to see Los Angeles in May of '92.

The French invented a solution to the problem of rich decadent assholes in 1789.

The people decide when this ends.

It’s par for the course for as long as the people choose to allow it to continue.

Yes. Rampant untreated mental illness is a consequence of not having universal health care.

The Five Fingers by Gayle Rivers. Might be one of the goriest books I’ve ever read.

Hilarious that you think I’m not American.

I love it when people tell on themselves with their assumptions. Projection ain’t just for the cinema, buddy.

He has dementia. They’ve known he’s got dementia since his first term.

Every day that passes without the 25th Amendment being invoked, Article 2 Section IV of the US Constitution being invoked, or articles of impeachment being filed is a day that every sitting member of Congress announces their complicity in subverting American Democracy.

Every day that passes without the American public taking to the streets in protest is a day that every American citizen announces their complicity in allowing their nation to no longer follow the rule of law.

Slavery was abolished in the 19th century,

Cute that you think that. Try reading the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution sometime. You’ll find that the USA did not abolish slavery. We just institutionalized it into the penal system. Look up some of the jobs performed by the inmates of the Louisiana state correctional system and then tell me slavery has been abolished.

ROFL.

Thanks for admitting you have no idea what you’re talking about. Again.

Thanks for admitting you haven’t got a legitimate argument.

I’m only using an over the top example to hopefully make my point more clear.

If that’s the only example available that illustrates the point, then you have not spent enough time thinking through your idea.

Do better.

If buying isn’t owning, then pirating isn’t theft.

I’m not Canadian, weirdo. Also didn’t accuse you of doing “nothing”. Just of deluding yourself into thinking the legal mthods are still viable. You’re living in the past if you think the courts will save you from what’s about to happen.

If you’re as much a part of the solution as you claim to be, why hasn’t the 25th Amendment been invoked? Why haven’t artticles of impeachement been filed?

Why, as an American, are you not repeating the lesson taught to you by Los Angelinos in May of 1992? The response to injustice is not “maybe we’ll delude ourselves into thinking the next election will work”.

You’re a full decade past the time when the ballot box was the right box to solve this problem.

Wake up.

Us peaceful types are mostly unarmed.

Which is exactly why you’re unable to act when the time requires it of you.

There’s a distinct difference between being peaceful and being harmless. You are not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Perhaps its time you reconsidered your stance on possessing the capability to defend yourself against your oppressors.
