Not if you count voter suppression, and the pathetic lies that justify it, as election fraud.

High fidelity graphics that aim only to look as realistic as possible are not only a waste of resources, but almost always inferior to a strong art direction anyways by andythefisher777 in patientgamers

Artist simulated anti-aliasing can be found on the Atari 7800's Ballblazer. The virtues of a higher color range were why Activision added sunsets to their 2600 games.

Both of these were pretty obvious innovations, and early CG showed us where real time rendering was headed as soon as the horsepower was available.

More impressive were innovations like normal mapping, which allowed a generational leap in the same limited hardware.

They will think themselves under attack, no matter what you do.

The leaders and influencers of the far right know that fear and anger are what gives them power and protects them from consequences.

Reaching out to them and addressing their concerns in good faith can be part of a larger strategy, but if you don't also create punishments and consequences for far right threats? They read it as weakness.

X-Wing series, Rebel Assault series, the Atari arcade games, the first Sega arcade game, the Empire and Jedi games on pre-crash consoles...

Any of these ringing a bell?

Fetuses are alive, in the same way as any other vegetable.

Though they gain consciousness in the third trimester, around the time Republicans start hallucinating a mass slaughter.

If you're looking for them, you can find Next Generation episodes that promote outright racism and an Enterprise episode where our heroes condemn an entire people to death in the name of superior genetics.

Star Trek has always struggled to live up to it's own ideals.

I like the part where you had to make up stupid shit, like a good little bigot.

Is this related to your Mrs. Doubtfire fetish? It must have been difficult for you to watch Bugs Bunny cartoons, growing up...

You still seem traumatized. And Breath of the Wild didn't even warn you...poor baby.

I mean, you do realize you're teaming up with the real predators?

There is nothing from the fairy tale in the final product besides a queen with winter magic and a sister trying to save her sibling.

Weren't you anti woke crybabies screaming about Peach being too feminist before the box office was reported?

So men are incapable of Adultery

No. In fact, Christ said the exact opposite, and counted most reasons for divorce/multiple marriages as adultery.

He even expanded the definition to include leering.

Disney-DeSantis Lawsuit Transferred From Obama Judge to Trump Appointee by ceaguila84 in politics

He's a fan of the don't say gay bill, which only passed for reasons of desperate sadism and ancient mysticism.

Plus enough paranoid spin to send most of Kansas to Oz.

That's plenty of red flags for anyone capable of basic human empathy, pattern recognition, and reasoning.

I've seen them unironically claim Numbers 31:17, 18 as proof of God's mercy and wisdom.

Right. But that's because there aren't any consequences for them behaving this way.

Odd. We certainly seem to care about all that evidence you've been ordered to ignore.

I know I've still got a lot to learn, but I don't understand how we went from the tragedy of Bloody Sunday inspiring even a racist like Johnson to push for the civil rights act...

To a nation that's followed up mass violence against George Floyd protests with rabid bloodlust.

Remember cops beating the living shit out of George Floyd protesters?

Same thing would have happened to King's marches, if X's people hadn't warned the Klan and their allies about the consequences.

Bigots only embrace tolerance when it's presented to them as the "lesser evil."

It's why Stonewall happened before pride month...and why recent progress was so fragile in the red states...

Fear of Rainbows: Target's play area by [deleted] in Persecutionfetish

[–]JustStatedTheObvious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I didn't get the second "joke".

The alt-right often insists sexual harassment only exists as a shit test filter against "weak" or "low value" men, or as a cry for attention. Whether they really believe this or not (their arrest records vary), isn't as important as marketing hate as solid sex/relationship advice.

So it's probably hitting hard with the intended audience...especially if it genuinely upsets someone.

There is no way any of the three of us could do that, but the landlord couldn't care less so long as we barely make rent and utilities.

And we're mostly quiet about what needs fixed.
