I’ve also been getting very bad stuttering that makes the game functionally unplayable. I think I’d love the DLC, if I could actually play it.

Mode of Operation?

IDF soldiers are beheading children by the dozen and we’re supposed to care that a soldier - who presumably knew what he was getting into - was killed in a slightly unusual but likely more humane way than dying slowly of an infected shrapnel wound?

If you believe this conflict is about religion, you are a gullible idiot. The conflict is a colonial one; the same sort of genocidal displacement we saw in North America only on the age of smartphones.

If everyone on both sides became Atheists, the Israelis would still be butchering the Palestinians and the Palestinians would still be fighting for their freedom.

$300,000? You mean a month’s rent?

When a thousand people die in a day, it’s a tragedy. When a million die over the course of a century, it’s a statistic.

The logical chain they’re missing is the fact that Capitalism is very literally using the sick and disabled as human shields - “Don’t hurt me, or little Timmy won’t get his chemotherapy!”

The problem isn’t that it’s not upsetting, it’s that child labor is not illegal (at least, not in a way that could be brought as a domestic civil suit) as long as it’s happening overseas.

Speaking as a Socialist, no, lmao.

First off, UBI’s are not Socialism. In fact, they are antithetical to Socialism. They are Social Democracy, which is objectively the moderate wing of Fascism, the standard borne by those who think we can make a better society by instituting ranked-choice voting, net neutrality, and a 32-hour workweek without ever looking past the symptoms into the actual problems inherent in the system.

Under Socialism, the vast, vast majority of science will be done (as it is/was, in the USSR and China) by government or government-funded research organizations, where materials are supplied to them and their research is guided by the public interest.

Cranks doing “science” in their garages and basements in their spare time will still just be cranks.
