The day I saw Trump win I knew Reddit was going on the chopping block but even then, it’s been going downhill since 2016 with bots, bot mods, and language policing. Merely saying ‘fucking Luigi’ is a ban worthy offense and it’s absolutely asinine.

Thanks!

Israel can be mean, it is out of my hands.

It is unfortunate. May this conflict end swiftly.

Edit: if you wanna insult me for this I understand. What happened was bad to say the least. As far as I’m concerned I can’t apologize for it because I’m not responsible for this like maga is and I tried to prevent this from getting worse. It can be a tough situation to have so many countrymen who lack empathy and foresight.

Maybe if people didn’t go out of their way to say shit like this, missing my point and insulting me without reading the rest of thread, then men would respect women more and there’d be fewer misogynists. But no. You did. Congrats. I suggest you change your ways before you inadvertently spread misogynism with your feminism like I’m guessing you’ve done before.

That kind of opsec violation makes being a US soldier so dangerous it’s stupid to every person with a brain who could possibly serve here.

The bad karma for bombing people who attacked one of our warships is nothing (because it’s fair if not brutal) compared to putting every single service member here in danger.

Yes. It’s not just sexual it’s about being close and open to people. I brought up escorts, and not hookers, because a lot of escorts do emotional support for their clients too in a way a therapist can’t. Good emotional support, from anywhere, can be worth more than therapy and unlike therapy there’s no paper trail insurance or govs can use against you.

Therapy is good if you think you have a condition and need a diagnosis and recommendation for a medication. That and dealing with trauma if you can’t handle it on your own. Otherwise it’s smarter to avoid it, use friends for support, and do your own research (assuming you know how to research better than a maga).

Is it a cure? No, but it’s usually a better treatment than what therapy offers, mental health requires constant maintenance, and in a lot of ways it’s smarter to keep your mental conditions off of a record authoritarians can use against you.

Not to mention I’ve seen people create more problems for themselves by focusing on them too much. Too much therapy is worse than too little.

Yes but also definitely no.

I’ve been to therapy and no amount of conversation or drugs can replace genuine intimacy and a lot of single men would have their mental health improved more by an escort than a therapist.

Yeah. A lot of folks I’ve met view it as fiscally conservative though.

Is it by magical means? Then name calling, mostly to watch Trump deal with it.

I’ve heard it more the exact opposite way. “I vote Democrat but I am really tired liberals doing nothing to curb government corruption or tax the rich more.”

You aren’t. I’m new I didn’t see it until now. Oof.

Fair but if they did a random Japanese samurai and not Yasuke this would’ve gone over a lot better for them. This aside, until Ubisoft expresses gamers should own games I won’t buy or play any Ubisoft titles on principle and I don’t think anyone else should either. That the people who’d play this anyway and defend Ubisoft are just supporting a company whose death would benefit all gamers.

Ah I see now. Thanks!

I am on voyager and I do not have access to this feature.

Then why Yasuke and not Musashi or someone who was more interesting and significant to Japanese history? They couldn’t have chosen a more DEI Samurai.

That said, putting it that way does feel more racist than I like even though it’s a funny way to put it.

Coming from Reddit I feel Lemmy could use a way to sort posts within communities by top posts within a time frame we choose. That without this feature gamers and gooners will default to reddit over Lemmy.

Technically you have a kidnapping not a lynching. Lynching leave more evidence.

Edit: Why am I getting downvoted? Lynchings end in hanging for all to see it’s what defines them. Am I wrong?

It is and I’d like to thank Ubisoft for that.

Not just AC 3. Eivor is Norwegian. Arno is French. Ezio is Italian. Bayek is Egyptian. Literally none of these MCs are well known historical figures until Yasuke. I can go on. All of them are either natives or local enough to fit in the setting.

I don’t disagree it’d be interesting to have a Yasuke game but the concept doesn’t fit AC like it would in a sequel to ghost of Tsushima or a Samurai Champloo game. It feels unnatural and forced to use him in AC because he’s a foreigner in Japan. It’s a dumb choice not the smart one more than anything else. Like if in the last AC we played Eivor as the apprentice to Bayek in Baghdad not just played Bayek. If the Samurai was white I’d complain about that too just to have an excuse to shit on Ubisoft for being anti consumer.

Also to be very fucking clear, this attack is not racially motivated. It’s motivated by the fact I am a gamer with a stupid amount of hours into this hobby and I have been treated as a cash cow to be put out to slaughter by this particular game company. That when I buy a game I should own it and it should work. That an update shouldn’t be able to delete full screen mode from the menu just to invalidate enhancement mods and push sales of a fucking remake.

I would agree that my outrage is misplaced if I didn’t see most people as cowards unwilling to take down bad companies for the greater good because they trade independence and privacy for convenience and money.
