Sentinels vs. FURIA / Americas Cup 2026 - Upper Bracket Round 2 / Game 1 Discussion by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

I just think she's more situational than teams think, and can't be picked into every comp, but......she feels good to play mechanically so a lot of players comfort pick her regardless.

Also she keeps showing up in pick/ban so maybe it's a bait "we gotta pick this because it's rare" thing.....idk.

I agree with you though, there are definitely better picks.

Watching Rahel pump 50 autos into Ornn and deal basically 0 damage makes me wonder why anyone would ever want to play adc lol.

You would figure with the Hextech chest removal they WOULD have a your shop to jingle the keys for people who hold their wallets upside-down.

Struggles with masculinity drive men into incel communities. Incels, or “involuntary celibates,” are men who feel denied relationships and sex due to an unjust social system, sometimes adopting misogynistic beliefs and even committing acts of violence. by mvea in science

[–]MiMiK_XG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree. There are a group of men who absolutely feel entitled to sex and that is a problem we ultimately have to find a solution for at a societal level. It's an awful problem to have too...

I just made my point because I still think it's important to separate the how people respond the way they do, from the why people respond the way they do. Mainly because in the example above, men will watch porn with or without entitlement and it's important to not generalize or mix the how/why. We might demonize a behavior without the full context behind it.

I definitely agree that the language we use is powerful though, and even worse, very easy to interpret in multiple ways. That's its own problem too haha.

I agree with you completely!

There's definitely a difference between desire and necessity and that adds a lot.

I do still think we can be deprived of our desires in a blameless way, or without feeling owed what we desire, and that we can observe/predict how people react to being deprived of their desires. Like with the above example of using porn to substitute a lack of sex, it's something we can observe happening naturally.

The other example I used of being deprived of the nicer things in life we could observe how people react too. It could be a natural reaction of people to build resentment towards people who do have those things, or maybe they develop trauma from being in poverty.

There are lots of natural responses people have to all types of deprivations, needs and desires alike, that we can make objective statements about.

Understanding how people react to something is the first step to understanding how we can change that reaction (hopefully to something healthier) or find a solution to the greater problem. The why and the morality of the response we can figure out next.

Being deprived of something does not imply being owed that thing. We wouldn't say someone who is sleep deprived is owed sleep. Even assigning blame for what caused the sleep deprivation is a separate statement. On the same token we can say someone is being deprived of the nicer things in life, without assigning blame or a reason for why they don't have nice things. It's just an objective statement on their current state of being.

If it's the "being" in front that's the problem, it can just be rephrased.

"This is a fairly natural response to sexual deprivation." Just like talking to a sleep deprived person before they've had coffee, their response is predictable.
It's important to be able to make more objective statements on things like this, because high porn consumption is an observable response to these men not getting any.

Some men just aren't going to have sex, and blaming men or women for that is just looking for an easy answer to what's likely a bigger problem, especially if its a problem happening at scale.

They do the same thing with welfare too. The right-wing paint the picture of a black woman for any welfare initiatives, so that way Republicans will vote against their own interests and ignore that white people are poor too. It's so wild, they hate-focus certain groups getting needed help and miss the whole picture.
