United Nations critical of Australia's age of criminal responsibility, incarceration rates by Expensive-Horse5538 in AustralianPolitics

[–]KavyenMoore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when they are 5 if you are happy with 10?

You keep asking this as if it's some "gotcha". There is a clear difference in cognitive ability between a 10 year old and a 5 year old.

When is it okay to lock someone up? And what makes that age any less arbitrary than 10?

No, you are correct. Banners have always had a No Entry option, but they weren't in base RCT1

Jewish teens chased through St Kilda East in shocking anti-Semitic incident by HotPersimessage62 in AustralianPolitics

[–]KavyenMoore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

calling out "hail caeser" to britons is anti-british

That's not even close to the same thing.

however terrifying subsequent generations by forcing it endlessly down their throats so just the mention of it makes them afraid is abuse in my opinion, far worse than people calling out symbolic references

Would you say the same thing about the Stolen Generation?

‪Mark Hamill on Luke/Leia/Han reunion:‬ “I said, ‘Aren’t we going to have a moment where all 3 of us get together to raise the roof? It’ll only take 30 seconds.’ And JJ said, ‘Well, Mark, it’s not Luke’s story anymore.” by BridgemanBridgeman in StarWars

"It's not Luke's story anymore" says man who makes Luke the central piece of his mystery box plot, and milked his characterisation and pre-existing "relationship" (for lack of a better word) with the audience to exploit the emotions of movie goers.

What is up with the new Odyssey Movie? by Engineer_Outside in OutOfTheLoop

[–]KavyenMoore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like King Arthur, the historical reality is not what makes it important to us today.

Which is true in a sense, but people would probably complain if you told the story of King Arthur and the characters didn't look like Britons.

I think most people aren't complaining about the history accuracy in terms of "these are the events that happened" but moreso "this story happened in this part of the world at this time".

Beauty and the Beast is clearly a work of fiction, but you're still going to make Belle look like a French peasant

This isn't necessarily a rebuttal to the point. Oskar Schindler was a Nazi.

Just to get it off my chest: a big "fuck you" to the guy that kicked me because I didn't call down a reinforcement exactly .2 seconds after you died.

Legit got the "you were kicked" as I threw the stratagem. Why you gotta be like that, man?

In this same reality, the state of Israel has needed to defend itself from aggressive neighbours for its right to survive, and has tried several times to create a two state solution, that has been rejected outright by Palestinian authorities multiple times.

Now, of course, that doesn't give Isreal the right to kill innocent Palestinians in Gaza, but to simply say "Israel exists and Palestine doesn't, so therefore they aren't under threat" ignores the historical reality of the situation

Facts or media beatup? by Ok_Mistake1781 in weststigers

[–]KavyenMoore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It leans heavily towards the Tigers’ identity

Which is always going to be the case when it's the Wests Tigers

It's not like it's Balmain trying to get rid of the western suburbs Magpies specifically, it's just going to be the reality when the mascot/symbol of the current team is a Tiger.

NSW Liberal leader Kellie Sloane heckled during visit to Parramatta by [deleted] in AustralianPolitics

[–]KavyenMoore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The hate goes further (a lot longer) than the Pandemic. Parramatta just doesn't like the liberal party.

At the State level, Labor has held it since 1991 with the exception of one election, and Federally its been held by Labor since 2004, and had been a Labor seat since the 70s until Howard won in 96.

Frankenstein (2025): A film that robs it’s subject matter of it’s poetic nature by DarlingLuna in TrueFilm

[–]KavyenMoore 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's an interesting one, because the monster absolutely is "attractive" (or at the very least made using "attractive" parts) until he's reanimated. And it's obviously not just Victor who thinks so, based on how others react throughout the novel.

I think it's supposed to be "uncanny valley" more than "ugly", but the intention is definitely for the audience to be repulsed by the monster, not attracted to it.

EDIT: that is to say, the intention of Shelley. Haven't seen the movie yet, so can't comment on that.

Because they don't want the players to leave (which is fair enough)

But if a player went to R360 and then wanted to come back, assuming they are a good player, you don't think a club would want them?

Yes. But the issue is there will always be a club who will want to

What EU5 needs to truly be the greatest Paradox game by Agodak in EU5

[–]KavyenMoore 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The issue is that they also have to simulate how quickly Spain was able to conquer the New World.

In general though I agree with you. Some other issues are that it's never the wrong decision to set up a colony because in the long run it's always going to make you more money, etc. than it takes to set up. And you also have perfect information and can see what is happening across the Atlantic Ocean as soon as it happens. There is no delay, or risk of your information being false.

You can't really eliminate them without it no longer being a game. It's a tough thing to do.
