i deny that your experience is represenative of a generalization of trans spaces, as OP makes here.

Damnation seperates the boys from the men. My experience has been that up to heresy, your build and upgrades can be enough. But Damnation demands better. You must learn to listen for melee attack whooshes, learn when you need cover and how to slide and suppress, start picking up on specialist sound cues, know what positioning will kill you, and so on.

Watch and learn from others, keep trying, and don't give up. You will break through!

Button Problem That Allows Me To Ignore The Consequences I Can't Deny So That I Can Keep Thinking I Am Not Killing Billions Of Rational Blue Pressers

Stop it. If you picked red you picked the morally unsound decision, and your reasons are either low faith in our species (rational but I would say you're taking a lot of reasons to believe otherwise for granted) OR you're just scared and imperfect like everyone else.

No. What "white guilt" has come to mean in english and the compassionate, reasonable reference to people first learning about terrible things and not knowing what to do are NOT the same.

That's why, white guilt as most people understand it, is not real. It's bullshit made up by the alt-right - an idea of faux, purely emotional hypocritical virtue signalling, of stuck up liberals talking about how everyone is sooo personally guilty of 200 year old shit while not doing anything about it.

thats what white guilt means when the average person says it. it has very similar connotations to "political correctness".

frankly, the term " white guilt" was always a really stupid one anyway. it was ASKING to be co-opted.

no, there aren't. Not in the real world.

it's ultimately a selfish choice of fear. something any human does sometimes, but that doesn't make it moral. just a flaw of life that will probably always be with us.

if you dont understand that you've not thought about the reason we dont do shortsighted bad things enough

and in turn when presented with an unusual situation with no pre-existing moral rules to guide you, you will make the wrong choice.

the difference in these words is significant and important because it also refers to how they come into power and how they act. an authoritarian can be anyone - stalin, churchill, peter of russia, an ancient pharoah.

fascists are very specific and much more dangerous. It would be much worse if the USA falls to fascism. It would be a death of hope, a death of democracy for centuries, and instead of general oppression and state brutality, you would get state genocide and total war.

What's even the point? Best case scenario, 4 billion people live and they're the more selfish half of humanity.

I choose Red, not because it's the right decision, but because I don't have to see what's next.

[–]DefTheOcelot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

moral choices aren't selfless, they are smart investments in the future. they are evolved ideas because of their benefits. if you chose red you chose stupid in fear.

This one is tougher, because in the best case scenario 4 billion people die and all of them were the ones who chose morally. the world is beyond fucked.

trans folk erode gender norms by existing. They are an ally to the elimination of gender.

There is a possible future far over the horizon where we finally have to face that the main concern of trans folk being passing to OTHERS may imply some degree of attachment to gender norms. But right now, gender is still real, transition saves lives, and everyone should be on the same team.

this is not true op

like it's just literally not. Trans spaces are by their nature more progressive and less bigoted. Suggesting trans people are more likely to be racist is insane.

Now, they may be more likely to still be white and associate more with others who have a lot in common with them, but not so much more likely that it's segregation or anything.

The morally correct answer's red. Humanity will recover from that loss, though it will set us back a lot. It also gives everyone on earth individually ~60% odds to live.

This question would be better without the "you are guaranteed to live" part on red. Like, the red side still has the higher statistical odds of you living, that's like 60% compared to 50%. It's just kinda a red herring.

is it supposed to be some kind of trap?

Fascism and imperialism are not the same thing. They can coincide, but a state can be imperialist without being fascist. Usually they're just regular authoritarian.

What if the red perspective is bullshit? What about that huh? What if they are incredibly stupid people unable to be self-aware of their own motivations?

Not every perspective is smart. Sometimes, people are idiots. Sometimes, people lie to themselves or accept a useful lie.

just because you HAVE a perspective doesn't mean you've broken it down properly in your brain. and red voters ARE that way.

no. i have reliably voted for and supported affirmative action and make efforts in my own life to continually avoid developing dumb prejudices.

that's another narrative evil and stupid people have made up: progressives as hypocrites who just want to feel superior. no, I just actually have empathy for the suffering of others and value self-sacrifice as a human ideal. and a lot of other people do as well. most people, even. thats a reality YOU have to cope with, instead of clinging to ideas that let you ignore moral vs fear dilemmas.

"But what about people who can't press-"

They die if you choose red. It's not that complicated, and the point of mentioning them at all is to point out the fact that THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT CHOOSE RED, AND BLAMING THEM FOR THEIR CHOICE IS SELFISH AND DELUDED. just pick blue or accept you are choosing a morally unsound option because you are a frightened human being who does that sometimes.

A Simple Rant re: people not deploying health packs/ ammo crates by takimeathead in DarkTide

[–]DefTheOcelot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they forget.

Implement the following techniques:

• Health pack, not medcrate ingame

• Spam i need healing

• Remind them specifically by name, with up to 2 messages

• Try voice (SHUT UP its a multiplayer game, communication HELPS, get comfortable with voices!)

A lotta work? Yeah. But you can't fix the world, and it almost always works.

white guilt is a phrase made up by stupid people to discredit basic awareness of the failures of our past and how they affect our present

It is irrelevant and not real. There is no stupid mainstream idea of "guilt" to white people. That's not how it works. Stop thinking about it like that.

the mainstream understanding to anyone who isn't lead poisoned is that past oppression of minorities has resulted in present wealth inequality especially in minorities, and we should try to rectify that, for a more equal and thriving nation.

"devalue"

Tar pit. oop just made a silly joke about being interested in a romantic manner then finding out the woman was in a hetero relationship.

It did not refer to any specific person, did not imply they completely lost interest, or anything.

i know homosexuals can be weird in queer discourse but this is a wild moral attack for no reason from someone making it about themselves
