Black lives matter is the least hyperbolic statement of that movement imaginable. That there was pushback even on that framing speaks more to the vile ess of its opponents than to a failure of marketing.
You might want to put it on your list but it’s the opposite problem to your other examples if anything.
Yeah both choices and experiences are valid for sure. But then maybe give the “hear me out” sarcasm a rest with someone who says they’re sleep deprived and maybe struggling. Enjoy your uninterrupted nights!
I expect the great leap forward in LLMs and AI art to dramatically change this at some point. They can already write pretty interesting plot with OK prompting, surely only a matter of time before someone is able to wrap that in a game.
We all just read an article about it, so this is obviously the most impactful and public place these people could have possibly gone to protest…
Shut up and dribble amiright
Lived in NY for a while (manhattan) and travelled to a lot of other states. The comparison rings true for me, NY has it’s own culture for sure.
And most often high costs mean higher ROI. The wind farm doesn’t get continued funding precisely because it produces electricity when supply is high and hence prices are low. Electricity is not worth the same at all times; you can sell your coal fired watts when the wind speeds are low and the unit price jumps up. Instead of trying to solve the hard problem of storing electricity to fill the intermittency gap, capitalism takes the easy way out of burning fossil fuels unless you force it not to by regulating.
Or you could read it as critical of capitalism.
“motivation, purpose, social skills, creativity” arguably all valued more under socialism/communism (admittedly there’s a lot of semantics going on under the hood here). Which is why so much tallent goes to waste as grist in the capitalist mill.
That doesn’t fit with anything I know about Weinersmith. You got any source?
And wasn’t that mention itself a joke about the obsession among the player base with the romances I the game?
Euchre can be gambled on right? So at least there is some angle where it’s “undesirable”.
Nah the people he grifted were “misguided”. He had all the time in the world to realize the toxic impact he was having on the world, he was intellectually gifted and granted extraordinary power and influence (as a direct consequence of his deliberately reactionary positions he took), at that point you have to be giving a truly naive amount of benefit-of-the-doubt to not conclude malice.
You’re throwing out unevidenced, and frankly not very relevant, generalizations again.
Can you honestly not see that a man why literally describes women as inherently chaotic, and men as inherently ordered, who advocates openly for “forced monogamy”, is hateful. If so I guess we have nothing more to say to each other. Just because he dresses it up in flowery language doesn’t make it less repulsive.
Do they? Do you have any evidence of that.
I’m going to be generous and assume you haven’t read his work, at least not critically. You should go listen to the episodes of the “behind the bastards” podcast about him or read more or less anything written about him:

He’s being “made fun of” because he’s a misogynist, a sophist, and a hypocrite. The crying is incidental. Less obviously heinous people overwhelmingly receive sympathy in their vulnerability. If I’m getting your argument right you’re saying: “people are mean to men who cry so indeed men shouldn’t cry”. The takeaway is surely, “be less of a dickhead” rather than “cry less”.
It’s funny when - a man who spent his career reinforcing the bullshit societal biases that make it harder for men to share emotions - cries and shares his emotions.
Fixed that for you. Decidedly not sacasm.
I am sorry that he had to suffer such trauma, but hopefully it helps people realise how full of shit he was.
I mean some fraction of that market is for sure addicted, which possibly stretches the definition of “like”.
