I built a make anything machine pretty quickly in this one and robbed all the fun from the game after that…
I had fun up to that point but it felt “solved” then.
It’s a really cool update to the OG game though. Worth the entry fee. Glad to see it still getting better all the time.
Yeah. You’re making a lot of sense.
At the end of the day I don’t have the answers or solutions sadly just more questions and doubts.
I fully understand why we use the language we do and the mass generalization and I hate it. Subtilty doesn’t get points across most of the time and hyperbolic arguments do and that also sucks.
You make such a great point with society meeting SO SO MUCH healing. I guess I just have this wish we would all just be better to each other and take people as they come. But then I see how you do that and surprise that one IS a bad person…
Just feel like we’re racing to the bottom. :(
It’s weird… I like you comparison to guns but also I hate it. It really does make a point but I think it just enforces the bad generalization point?
NOTE: I’m autistic and miss the point sometimes (a lot) I’m more asking questions here than trying to claim I’m correct. I’m very open to the conversation.
There are lots of problems with it I think. Guns are tools. Tools used to kill and nothing else. Guns aren’t capable of thought and reasoning and so on. Guns should be treated as loaded as a respect think, not a fear thing. Guns kill when people use them to kill.
Men are not that. Men can be so many things. Also I’d assume more men have never even come close to hurting or killing women then those that have hurt or killed women. Women have also killed men. Some women don’t fear men.
Why treat things as an absolute when it’s a complicated spectrum like any other. Generalizations are just bad I think… They just kind of lead to tribalism in a bad way.
My brother pointed out something that happened to him. A woman crossed the street to not walk on the sidewalk where he was waiting for a bus. General advice we give out to each other, right? But then he asked how different would that be if he crossed to street if a black person was waiting for the bus? I’ll be honest I didn’t have an answer for him. Like if he did that people would call him racist for making a generalization, and I don’t think he’s wrong…
What’s different?
I find this meme funny and generally light on the aggression, and more focusing on the praise, but I generally agree with you.
I hate that it’s become normal to use hyperbole and generalizations to stack whole groups. It alienated the allies. I feel the same about ACAB and any other gross generalizations.
The response is always like ZDL posted that “you’d have to be stupid to not understand it doesn’t mean everyone” but that’s the same defense racists use…
The fact these conversations pop up in the first place. Making the divide between people bigger and more extreme just doesn’t seem like the winning strategy. It feels like how the US treats criminals.
We could easily focus on praising good behavior without shitting on people.
I have brothers, I have a dad, I have some of the sweetest male friends. And them having to constantly second guess themselves and feel like they are public enemy number one simply for existing just sticks.
I would rather praise of perceived good behavior be the norm than aggression in general for bad behavior, especially if it’s gonna be so generalized.
Talking bout mah boi b. Willy!
I honestly believe that a little silly good like this is why Discord is named so, instead of discourse.
Herpetologist checking in. The snake doesn’t assess shit. Animals use instincts first before anything else. Deer hears a noise, it bolts, then it assess.
Same with snakes. They feel vibrations, catch any glimpse of anything, get touched, they strike. Snakes are stupid. Snakes are also stupid fast. That boi would have been bit.
They keep it for the history, so bring it some historical cars. Make an event of it. Make it so the track has a track day 2 other times a year with cars the public can rent out and compare track times. Don’t even have a race just do quali time trials and that’s it.
Yeah I don’t want to watch while like that. I’ll watch the Gundam series’ without the kid pilots. While well done, I just don’t need children to be used like that. Heck even with Friren I was kind of annoyed that Fern and what’s his face were kids. Fern grows up and is 18 a bit into it but still…
I just don’t consume much media for the moral lesson or the tough ethical dilemma questions anymore. I just want to have a good time with what little time I do have for it.
I just don’t want to watch another anime about the chosen child having to go to battle when adults are around and can do it for them. Old people sitting around while a bunch of 12yo are going on a world saving “adventure”.
You can consume whatever media you like, I prefer not having this in mine.
This is kind of an odd comment onin a thread about things that exist in reality that we don’t want to see…
And no child soldier business. Kids don’t need to be going to war
My favorite game on a long long time. It’s amazing. It would be lying to say it’s perfect and has no flaws but it’s damn close!
I’m a perfect game sure, but most of these are far from perfect. They often don’t explain mechanics, rely heavily on changing Metas, RNG, pure chance, reflexes that some people just will not have no matter what their attitude or mindset is, and so on. Let’s have it, these games are FULL of jank.
At the end of the day, the “pros” don’t need to adjust their difficulty if they don’t want to. More options is never a bad thing.
I always just ask people to email what they just said so it’s in writing, so it’s clear, and I have all the details, and it’s on my to do list. Make me look like I’m detail oriented, like I want to please them and do it exactly how they want.
If it’s too help with a decision maybe do an odd number of jurors to avoid a 50/50 decision.
Also why do I need an account? I don’t need my info on there to decide if I’m eating tacos or pizza tonight
Everyone had their own experience.
My degree got me into “real jobs”/career jobs. Before that I even with nearly 2 decades in IT I could barely make headway.
Getting my degree let me actually pursue my passion in environmental work.
I still hate I NEEDED to get the degree and loans and and whatever but it DID help. Also I did enjoy school. I like learning.
You make some good points, but the statistics you provide are really lacking sadly. For example the victim rate is high. I wonder what the offense rate is, I’m assuming it’s much lower. A few rotten apples spoil the bunch taken to extremes comes to mind here.
I don’t deny that there are a lot of women who have been victims of abuse by men. But writing off half the human race seems like the wrong approach and absolutely a race to the bottom. Especially when we can do better and promote good behavior and a dismantling of the systems that cause this in the first place without alienating a non-problematic majority.
Again it’s not so much this meme. This is is mostly fine. Something to aspire to basically. I’m just not a fan of people making massive negative generalizations against other people. There are very few absolutes in life.
