I would prefer games have an automatic mode that plays itself like in NieR Automata and some other games rather than developers trying to balance for multiple experiences. A lot of times the modes are just arbitrary number changes with little thought put into it.

One thing to keep in mind is that even the companies that pay well like KyoAni or Trigger still outsource a lot of the work to primarily Koreans who get paid even less. Though every product you own has labor outsourced to somewhere they can pay people even less to keep costs down so it isn't unique to anime.

Are rich people's homes technically an investment? Sure. But the planes, cars, and many other luxury goods only lose value. You can't call a private jet or a luxury sports cars an investment and poor people could never afford either of those.

He has at least once. He just ignores it when people ask him if it happened now.

Please go to China TC. Nothing will wake you up to reality more than actually seeing it. You can explain to the first homeless person you meet how absolute poverty has been eliminated and he should just ask a landlord for free housing. People are born into an official government class in China under the Hukou system. People without a right to live in a city try to find work there anyway to buy their way into being able to live in a city. Often these migrant laborers are homeless among other deplorable conditions. China has rampant capitalism with little to no workers rights. If you actually went there this would become obvious to you.

TopicI don't like voiced protagonists in RPGs
ssjevot
03/01/21 12:21:10 AM

For me it depends on the story. Like Persona with a voiced protagonist would be weird since you are making the decisions for them. But something where the main character is a developed character in their own right, like most of the Final Fantasy games, it makes sense if they are voiced. Dragon Quest is of course the classic example of the silent protagonist and I feel they always do it well. You really feel like an adventurer gathering a crew to explore the world, it works in that light hearted setting but I feel Final Fantasy would be very awkward with that kind of setup.

Why do you think Obama needed bidens opponents to drop out so Biden could win pluralities if people are so unsupportive of "left wing" candidates.

I voted for Bernie but that isn't accurate. Bernie was winning pluralities and then the other candidates dropped and Biden started winning majorities. Bernie needed a crowded field to get victories. The base of the Democratic Party are centrists, not the left.

Radfem is usually used to describe movements that think everything is a social construct and will often posit that women and men have identical sex drives, etc. She is making arguments that often get derided as "biotruths" in those circles. As a biologist I agree with what she is saying but it runs opposite to what I was taught in Women's Studies courses. I don't think the labeling here is correct.

Yeah it's important to remember the Native American boarding schools are considered a cultural genocide. As well as what happened to Native's in Guam and other territories. People don't mean they literally murdered those people, they mean the US government tried and largely succeeded at wiping out their cultures.

The richest man in Japan is Korean, therefore there is no racism against Koreans right? Literally no group gets targeted by far right-wing racists in Japan than Koreans. So yeah, having a celebrity or rich person of a background doesn't mean discrimination against people of that background don't exist.

I do remember tagging this dude. Granted this was a few years back before apparently most people knew about tankies.

granted, i was over zealous with the tag and probably conflated some of yall with them. Sorry about that

it truly was just about seeing the tankies starting to come into focus and panicking because of thinking that was what Leftism was about or going to be.

The biggest issue with tankies is because they are authoritarians they take over leftist spaces and ban opposition. They have been this way from the start. Lenon is famous for calling his group Bolsheviks, meaning the majority despite being the minority in the socialist movement. He then banned opposing thought. Now you go to places like r/communism or r/socialism and you have to be a tankie or get banned.

of the post or just that sentence? Lol

The post yeah. I don't consider the US a force for good. A preferable imperial power to the CCP, but that is hardly a compliment. I realize Japan has to pick a side and allowing the US to stay and keeps bases here guarantees our freedom relative to the CCP (not just my opinion, but the opinion of my family living here that were born in China), but that doesn't mean the US is good, just the best alternative. Ideally there would be no imperial powers.

You'd think that if there's nothing bad going on, you'd use a better since than the Chinese govt propaganda videos saying "nothing strange going on here, nothing at all......... >_>" after they initially denied the camps even existed

That's how it works in China. It's straight up 1984 playbook. It doesn't exist. It does exist but it isn't that bad. It is bad, but other countries did similar things (we are here). In the future it will just be a you can't talk about it thing like Tiananmen Square is now. I watched this happen in real time where they lost their rigged elections in Hong Kong and they reported that there were reports of voting irregularities and then never talked about it again. Now the last election was cancelled and future elections will only allow pro-Beijing candidates. The thing that makes all this weird is most people in China know the government news is bullshit and yet tankies are Western kids with access to all this information and still believe it for some reason. They even make up shit that no one in China would try to claim.
