People have trouble criticizing things they like. Fact of the matter, America is racist and if you don’t cater to racist you run the risk of “outrage” and “scandal”. Listen to the Vanilla Ice interview where he’s asked if he thinks it’s weird that he’s the face of rap…
Woke is an insult somehow, but listen to how cringe these unaware people sound.
OP don’t lie, we all know you stole this from Old Gregg’s Cave. This is perfect.
True, I forgot that I bought that myself. My mind went to XBox emulation because I’ve been messing around with it. It’d be interesting to hear a comparison between what runs smoother: Halo 1-4 emulated or through the MCC.
It’s just a mask at this point. As soon as all the public services are privatized, along with military, and elections can be bought, what is a government at that point? Where is the distinction if they’re all paid off by the same people? At this point it’s become a sport for the ultra-wealthy to just buy countries like a sports team. Trump is even wheeling and dealing to buy other countries, this is how shallow the meaning of nation has become. America: sponsored by Musk and Thiel.
Americans absolutely did not vote for this! You call an election where one man can pay out a quarter billion - legally - a fair election? Do you think 90% of Russians vote for Putin too? We’re cooked and getting more cooked. Point and laugh and act like this isn’t bad news for the world.
We keep limiting ourselves to just citizens in nations, we’re going to keep repeating the same patterns nations repeat. Genocide still happens, war still happens, and the collective problem of climate change looms large. No one nation, not even America, is a match for the power these corporations have. We have no newspapers, free press is close to dead, and we’re uneducated. Anyone pinning their hopes on America figuring anything out doesn’t know how misinformed we are. If we can’t come together now, when we’re finally all connected, with the ability to instantly translate each other’s words, is it crazy to think we can do a little better?
You act like it’s an America problem and not a billionaire problem. Where do you live that you think the same billionaires don’t own you too?
We need to transcend nations before we all die and a handful of oligarchs have power forever.
I just hope everyone is learning how easily your country can be owned and controlled by outside interest - if your country is filled with uneducated, incurious, and indoctrinated citizens. We have no one to blame but ourselves as we ask The Kremlin to take the wheel.
Bach feels like he composed music for the person playing the instrument, as much as for the people listening to it.
It has a lot going for it.
If there was more contrast on the face (so it’s less flat) and thicker eyelids (less white of the eyes as well or maybe they’re too uniformly white), I’d wager the face would “pop out” more.
It’s coming along nicely!
If you know how to sail the high seas and emulate things, Halo coop is easily my fave.
I bet Elon can buy this election for just 10-20 million.
Eventually that backfires hard. There are ways to measure the effectiveness of ads and bots don’t buy shit. The number one ad on reddit is “buy some ads, people love seeing and clicking on reddit ads!”
Reddit ads are terrible, no one clicks them, they all use clickbait post titles, and there’s more each day.
There was a smart way to monetize reddit, their choices make it clear what kind of people are making decisions at reddit.
The testing will continue until the results start cooperating. iT’A cALlED dOiNG scIeNCe, PeoPlE!?!!!?
He wishes he could edge on a couch. He’s a two pump chump when it comes to the forbidden upholstery.
Did Luigi save us from reddit? What can’t this man do?
Strongly disagree. Look at how effective the Tea Party was at changing the entire GOP. We just need people to be as outraged by what’s currently happening as the Tea Party was about having a black president.
Everything that matters - the people and the communities - still exist. Spez was never the best of us, it’s the people that make that platform great (or completely insufferable like r/TheDonald and r/conservative). If they’re going to let everyone shit in that sandbox, we’ll all find somewhere else to hang, at least until the world burns.
