The Trump administration is just a straight-up Captain Planet villain at this point.

I’m just going to call it “the climate shitshow” at this point, with how cooked we seem to be.

IDK, missing (or deliberately ignoring) context is also a deeply human issue. Don’t act like you captcha-pressers are any better than us in that matter.

Honestly, “OP did this on purpose” is an entirely reasonable stance on the issue. And either way, the blame might also fall on the instance moderators for allowing it (are there rules about off-topic posts? I’m too tired to check)

And yeah, you’re definitely right to be salty about this. The Internet is where nuance goes to be stabbed to death in a back alley.

As for the Substack discourse, I guess that Substack is at the very least being naive about the whole thing? Idk. I’m tired of all of this Intenet discourse and having a new hot topic issue every goddamn day.

All I know is that if a platform sent me a notification about an openly Nazi blog, swastika and all, I would have some second thoughts about using it.

Screaming at the state of mainstream gaming? Yeah, that checks out.

It should have been blurred out or redacted, then. Because naturally, people will be more eager to discuss a Nazi problem than some fediverse bug.

Then it’s not FOSS.

We can, just give me a petition link I can sign. Or at least a newsletter or something I can subscribe to so I get notified when a petition is out to sign.

Video games or not, SKG is a great success for European civic participation. We should be taking notes on how it was organized, what it did right, and what it did wrong.

…or we can raise our fists towards the clouds and complain.

“Nostalgia is a fallacy.” And so is “new = better”. Just look at Windows.

Ah, yes. The crowbar attack vector. https://xkcd.com/538/

And even if it was purely a gossip app, an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.

What territory exactly are you trying to “restore”, invader?

Got it. Thanks for the explanation!

“Seeing patterns” without proper analysis and considering power dynamics is just tinfoil thought with misleading bite-sized statistics.

Unfortunately, the world is too complicated for such a simple approach.

Depends. Will it get people to stand out of my sun?

“With no ads” Google used to have no ads. And especially with how much it cost to run even today’s LLMs, let alone tomorrow’s ones… enshittification is only a matter of time.
