Hello, I’m from Hell Recruiting. We just saw your comment and wondered if you’d be willing to consider a position in our ironic punishment department.

Did it for clout.

What a prick.

The only part that’s unique to gaming is that gamers are the most toxic community in the internet.

I wish this wasn’t as true as it is.

I don’t think this is a gaming problem.

It is a discourse problem.

People engage in absolutes. They either love a thing or hate a thing. There’s no nuance.

And it must be made to cater for them, there’s no expectation that it will contain choices they don’t approve of.

And this stance, this modern relationship with the world permeates everything, especially forms of media.

You see it in films and books… Fans and stans and folk trying to take it down. There is no nuance or middle ground.

People don’t accept that, perhaps, something isn’t just “not for them”. That’s why you get grown men complaining about the direction of children’s shows they used to watch.

And this is compounded with social media where polarisation, blunt takes and contradiction are the primary drivers of engagement.

Audience error.

By allies, this article is referring to Republicans.

As opposed to Zelenskyy’s allies who are pretty much every nation state other than Russia, USA and, the runt Hungary.

I bet the idiots have shares in the dental industry though.

I hope Zelensky travelled all the way there to tell him to go and fuck himself to his face.

Been using Lemmy for a couple of years, not seen this once.

Also, the ux is pretty much the same as Reddit.

These people are just stakeholders in Reddit. They are afraid of change, or losing any rep they have. They sit on a pile of useless upvotes.

Strong alternative to the Scottish, “Yer Da sells Avon”.

This is somehow more racist than the maga replies.

Great work Sherlock.

I’m not British but I live in Scotland since it is a country that doesn’t lock immigrants up in concentration camps.

Poor take.

You could have shown some contrition or humility. It is Your government, that represents You that is encouraging ethnic cleansing abroad and also creating concentration camps for immigrants at home, making You complicit.

And you are complicit, whether that is against your will or not.

Instead of recognising that, you chose to try and teach me about morality and now have decided to judge me.

This is what makes you a hypocrite.

As I say, I feel like being lectured on morality by an American is a common occurrence. You love to tell people how to think and behave whilst you elect rapists and invade countries. And it isn’t just Trump I’m talking about. The US has nearly an unbroken record of inflicting trauma on the world, whether that is over oil, or politics.

And you’ve benefitted from that, and done what? Banged out some judgemental words on a keyboard?

You are behaving exactly like why the world is tired of Americans. You are a bully and a blowhard. You have no humility and you can’t walk away from a fight you lost before you even started.

Classic American, lecturing the world on the ethics of things. .

That’s not what I said, but thanks for going on a tangent to correct me.

Yeah, it’s sickening that one of the proudest democracies in history is clearly faltering.

However, I thought they taught Americans about the responsibility of democracy. Hell knows we here you bang on about it when invading the rest of the world.

As a non-American it staggers me to think that people tried to justify not making a difficult choice by suggesting they were taking some sort of moral inaction.

"If it was easy, it wouldn’t be a shortcut, it’d just be the way. "

Modding varies from game to game, but having been doing it for nearly 40 years now, I can say it has generally become easier in the titles that want you to and harder in the ones that don’t.

Long term solution, learn German.

Being old.

I used to be able to sleep endlessly.

Now I find myself awake early in the morning, despite having gone to bed rather late. And I’d like to go back to sleep but I can’t.

I miss it.

And this isn’t even about needing to get up to pee. That’s apparently something I still have to look forward to.
