Do you know the definition of an extremist mindset? The ability to think that you’re a perfect example of a good citizen, while acting like the people you hate. You are a perfect example of “the ends justify the means” while accusing me of the same. Hilarious. And you’re using phrases which accuse one of a crime, and then you refuse to admit you fucked up. Glorious. You know the difference between you and me is? I’m at least aware of the fact that I’m an asshole.
So basically by your own admission, it’s not even illegal where you live, which makes that your opinion. Which makes you a bullshitter. That kind of makes your own little halo slide a bit to the side doesn’t it? Because what you did right now was spreading misinformation online with intent to shame. But you can’t shame me, because as I wrote before: I fully accept my actions and recognize them as a dick move. By my own morals, I find it absolutely acceptable of a response.
But on the other hand, if you want to play devil’s advocate and paint strawmen situations, imagine someone who has severe anxiety about letters. Wouldn’t it be hypothetically a really big dick move to spam them with your shitty beggar ads while you sit around in your fucking house worth more than their life’s salary, enjoying your luxury?
You see, once you start snowflaking, it never stops.
Where I live, it’s definitely not a a crime, just a very big asshole move, which I completely own. But if you want to flip the script, I do have a big disclaimer on my mailbox outside my house that says “NO ADVERTISING/SOLICITING PLEASE”. One dick move deserves another in turn if you ask me.
Well, then I did my part to help out medicine!
Last time I got a letter from one of the health orgs, I took the time to look up the person signing it who was a specialist on the topic. Turned out the bitch lived in a house worth enough that if I had it and sold it, I’d never have to work another day in my life. So, I googled her email and found it and then signed her up to a bunch of spam sites and nasty german scat/fisting.
I understand greed perfectly well. I mean, you could write a comedy sketch about it at this point. “No Sir, we absolutely did not create these absolutely fabulous pieces of gear during the development of the game. Nope, not even a pixel! And this gun? This terrific looking and powerful gun that makes all the guns in the game seem meek? Totally something our gun designer thought of when he was taking a piss the SECOND after we stopped development. And this quest line that perfectly fits together with most of the game and completely changes the introduction of our sequel? Well…that’s just us being VERY good writers and not at all greedy bastards who cut off important bits of the story so we can nickle and dime you for it!”
Then you would have someone coming in and smack them around with a trout, because reasons.
Oh and in case you think I’m hyperboling, the examples in the sketch are all taken from actual bullshit that’s happened already.
Ooof, I hit a nerve there didn’t I? It’s OK though, I’m just some rando on the internet, no need to get worked up about it. Go talk to some friends, touch grass, you’ll be fine kid.
Man, your simping and long diatribes are really amusing as hell. Me mad? No, not really. I actually enjoy calling out simps like you and watching them trip over themselves trying to white knight hard for corpos who don’t give a shit about you as customers. Please, do write more, I’m sure someone will make this into a great copypasta someday.
This whole “dollar per hour” crap is just another simp tactic that nobody is buying anymore. But hey, if you wanna talk costs, how about the fact that we’ve been paying $60 for games for around two decades now despite the fact that physical distribution and media creation isn’t a thing anymore? Or how about the fact that for most games, we’re renting them since they’re locked by invasive DRM? How about DLCs being a standard now and games being obviously incomplete? GAAS? Shouldn’t that be cheaper since it’s basically gone the next day?
If you want variation towards more expensive, why aren’t you considering all the factors that make shit cheaper? The answer? Because you’re simping hard like some 13 year old console fanboy. The only reason the megacorps that make AAA games need that much money is because they’ve fallen into the classic trap of having too much upkeep and flab.
Indies have proven beyond the shadow of a doubt that you can make awesome games with much smaller budgets.
Actually, more accurately: ‘Theft’ is when capitalists could make more money fucking you over, but couldn’t. *Actual *theft is when capitalists make more money by fucking you over and then pay the fines for it as a cost of business.
Reading all the comments defending a $70 game with zero day DLC is just bewildering. I mean, HOW MUCH of a fucking cuck do you have to be to not only accept it, but to DEFEND it? You people deserve all the shit you get for being peasants. The rest of us sail the high seas, YARR!
They insert themselves everywhere nowadays. Still doesn’t mean goth is the same as furry.
But yes, horse dicks Harry, Horse dicks everywhere.
The only winning move is not to play. To the sea my friend, TO THE SEA!
When they all started touting these services back in the 00’s I was like “Why are you morons falling for this shit for?!” Because that all the shit inherent to such a platform was gonna happen sooner or later. Then a few years later “QQ - my fav show got removed from the service and now I can’t watch it” or “XYZ got censored!” or “These services are getting worse all the time.”
The whole time, I’ve been sitting on my metaphorical Queen Anne’s Revenge and laughing at them. And of course, now that they all want to come back, I’m gleefully throwing down the gangplank!
Yeah, there are certain topics where the bot suddenly switches to lecture mode which is very obvious. I wouldn’t really call it a liberal bias, more of a programmers culture bias. They obviously messed with the default product to push certain topics and avoid others. That’s why I consider it a useless product. When someone publishes the first LLM that has a true unbiased nature, that’s going to certainly change some things.
Again, you don’t get to define what words mean here. You deliberately misuse legal criminology terms for something that is an asshole move in an attempt to make them seem more serious. Nobody is buying this kind of shit argumentation. And mind you, the only person that seems upset here is you who’s foaming at the mouth and making up your own reality.
If anything, I probably could report your comments for defamation of character and have them removed. But I won’t, because I think your comments are important for others to see. Because this is what happens when extremism goes to far. Yes, I’m an asshole, but you, you literally go online accusing people of crimes they haven’t committed because their moral alignment doesn’t jive with yours.
So, unironically: Thank you very much for being my conversational partner in this illustration of what the mindset of an extremist person is like. I really hope you don’t chicken out and delete your comments once you realize that your mask is truly off for the world to see.
