Yeah, I hope for the same for Russia. To me it seems like that sort of change has to come from within though. External pressures is put through the internal propaganda machine and out comes agitation. But if they get a movement going I’m sure they’d be heard by the west. The HK demonstrations got a lot of light, not that it helped much… But what else is there to do. We could start a war, but I’m doubtful that will make things better.
Fair enough. I don’t think it’s only our cushy lives though. The influence the US has on Israel compared to China makes a difference. We know of the Uighur situation as well, but there’s not that much we can do than condemning. Sure, trade embargos I guess… But compared to Israel that is very much dependent on the west. There’s a viable way to some sort of solution through sheer influence.
I don’t care for the conflict either, more than that I think it’s unfortunate. Much like my take on Tibet. I don’t think the CCP is generally liked much in the west though. And I don’t know much about the Tibetan conflict, but why would the west side as much with HK as we’ve done if we already was in China’s pockets? Or what are you trying to say?
I didn’t believe you, but one search told me otherwise.
“as of May 2022, 160 monks, nuns, and ordinary people have self-immolated in Tibet since 27 February 2009” ref.
Your take should still consider the differences in these issues and the prevalence of Israel v Palestine in western media and why that might be, instead of sounding butthurt a dude’s sacrifice for something he believed in worked somewhat. If it makes you happier it’s probably gone with the next news cycle.
In the threads I mentioned users were literally asking for alternatives. Trying to shove alternatives by posting in subs will end badly, no doubt.
I get it, you think you’re doing good, I’d ask you to reconsider that. You’re claiming someone is doing something no one has even considered yet. Judge the result, not your idea of what they’re trying to do. You’re painting a monster no one else sees.
I won’t answer your second post to me since it wasn’t targeted at you, and I’m lazy.
So if I’m not both a woman and a man I can’t see sexism? That’s an easy way out of responsibility.
It’s not inherently anti-trans. How can you say that, can’t you see what OP wrote? And then you’re trying to put a stample on me for not being a good enough supporter of the cause, so bring out the guillotines! Sometimes I feel like the trans communities greatest enemy is it’s strongest proponents.
You can’t speak for every trans person, neither can I. But if you think no one trans likes HP, or think that if someone trans likes HP they aren’t really trans, then you can fuck right off. And if that’s not what you’re saying, then let it be?
People are weird, let them. If they aren’t actively trashing other people they aren’t doing harm. Stop being upset about things no one’s yet to do to you. You just come of as an leftist incel.
I don’t mean you can’t choose to stay clear of HP yourself. What I’m hinting at is that you can disassociate with a group without the drama. HP fans aren’t all bigots, that’s obvious right? I like Wagner’s music, I’m not a fucking Nazi. It’s such a weird hill to die on with everything going on.
And choice to be trans? I dunno if it’s a choice anymore than I “choose” to love the same sex.
It’s not the point, and I hope you got that but just couldn’t leave without slapping my wrist.
Holy fuck. I like Harry Potter and want to speak about it, so what? Because JK made a few announcements? Words do damage and I get that it’s already hard being trans and she isn’t helping. But acting like this is just building more walls, dividing an already fucked humankind for no good reason.
I respect anyone’s choice to be trans, but then you’ll have to let me discuss HP without judgement as well. And if you won’t, then you’re the problem. Because I will still respect anyone trans, but I won’t respect you.

Can you compare it to Factorio?
Just because I were curious enough to check this out, from Wikipedia:
Worldcoin aims to provide a reliable way to authenticate humans online, to counter bots and fake virtual identities facilitated by artificial intelligence. Using a distribution mechanism for its cryptocurrency similar to UBI, Worldcoin attempts to incentivize users to join its network by getting their iris scanned using Worldcoin’s orb-shaped iris scanner.
Why does he suck? I know nothing about him.
Sure, there’s a possibility. But since it hasn’t happened in 10+ years I doubt it’s a problem.
I think a VAC ban only bans you from that one game, at most from other games with VAC. I got VAC banned in modern warfare 2 10+ years ago, but it hasn’t had an impact on my account/other games. More than a notice on my profile that it happened.
… just to add, the ban was justified. I went into a game and just held down the shoot button with a plethora of cheats on to see what it was like. It took all the fun out of it and cost me a game I liked. Not recommended. : )
What a time to be alive
I guess just homophobic slander? To be fair I read it as a “space joyful commune”, which seemed to make most sense. Giving it the benefit of the doubt…
Oughh, Dungeon Keeper… That was one of my favorites as a child, the Swedish voice acting was top notch!
