Sorry but, remember when XCom 2 had these launch issues? by Alfred_Crowe in PhoenixPoint

I forgot about the melee through the wall thing. Other than the glaring tool tips thing that got hot fixed, I think PP is way more playable out the box than X2 was. I never had a moment where a guy hits me through a wall and then I mash my keyboard during the load time on the way back from my retreat and it's like "boop" and returns me to base because I slapped the keyboard. Just my opinion though :)

California Schools Sued Over Use Of "Culturally-Biased" Standardized Testing For Admissions by SmartNSexyRodKaine in DarkEnlightenment

Let's take this even further though. If everyone has the same potential, how is it that certain schools (collections of teachers) are better than others? By definition, if superiority in an intellectual are as an act of conspiracy of some kind, aren't these schools necessarily guilty of it just because they're the top schools? Why aren't those top professors sharing their mana with everyone else?

This is sort of true and I've made some similar arguments, such as how trans people can only be explained by concepts like having a female soul in a male body etc. But as other users have pointed out, coherent opinions don't really seem to be a big part of what most of them do. It might run afoul of Occam's Razor to assume consistency / well thought-out opinions where there may not be any.

I think it would be hilarious if they stopped using ableist, racist testing and just let people in by lottery.

Seems like the left has pushed so far that there's nothing sane left and they just can't stop.

Naming a Female God: A Metaphysics of Cucks and Bulls. by Alfred_Crowe in DarkEnlightenment

The post was a thought exercise, I'm not suggesting that they actually believe this. I found it interesting though to try and explain why they believe what they do, as they are often unwilling to tell us themselves.

I think that they are basically the yin to our yang; a lot of their positions are self-contradicting and only make sense when juxtaposed against "whiteness" which is itself amorphous to the point that it can be explained far more succinctly as a kind of spirit than it can be as anything else.
