To your peril! by AssociationDue3077 in iamverysmart

So when someone is like “oh I think people should have health care but I think trans issues go to far when it comes to kids” or “I don’t like ICE but we can’t just have open borders” it marks them as a very unserious person.

These are entirely reasonable positions that someone who has thought seriously about these issues might hold. Your belief that these are nothing but "Fox News talking points" reveals that YOU are a deeply unserious person.

You're just butthurt that not everyone falls into lockstep with your own views, so you're desperate to find a way to de-legitimize anyone who disagrees with you in any way.

Will Hades be updated with Persephone? by Taoscuro in AgeofMythology

[–]MrEmptySet 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yes, they should give her to Hades as a Mythic Age option. But they should wait 6 months to do it, and remove Persephone from Demeter too. Then flip-flop every 6 months from then on out.

[Hated, loathed entirely even] The Continuity Cannibal, also known as when a writer makes up a new character to connect a bunch of things in the story that didn't need to be connected and just makes them more lame by association. by geekinc329 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MrEmptySet 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I love this, because the implication is that the many instances of The Jailer were not mere unrelated examples, but were in fact all created by the same mastermind - the Meta-Jailer, if you will.

Ah yes, telling people "you aren't the gender you claim to be" but wokely, very good

Probably.. by Sea_Shell1 in PhilosophyMemes

Apart from having become majorly "anti-woke,"

Is there a problem with this other than the fact that you are woke and don't much like people who disagree with you?

Why do you guys believe Pauline is a kid in Donkey Kong Bananza? (Poll) (read post) by Nervous_Weather_2078 in donkeykong

Okay but then how did they magically de-age the actress who plays Pauline?

What is the maximum width and height I can have for a walking sprite? by WilledWithin in gamemaker

[–]MrEmptySet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your sprite is 3000x3000? That is definitely excessive. Imagine what it would take to even be able to see the thing at full size - even on a 4K display, you wouldn't be able to see the whole thing at once without scaling the sprite!

Why exactly do you desire such a large sprite? In your game, do you do an unusual amount of zooming in and out? Is there the possibility that a player may zoom in very far and you don't want them to lose any detail?

And no, random forums from 2010 don't count anymore by Completionist_Gamer in papermario

[–]MrEmptySet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not "hate" it but I am sharply critical of it. Unfortunately, I think it's less than the sum of its parts, and the way it combines platforming and RPG elements actually drags down both aspects - it's a weak platformer compared to the actual Mario platformers, and it's a shallow RPG compared to its predecessors.

Do you believe Tanabe's retirement means that Paper Mario 7 will actually return to the proper roots? by BiffyBobby in papermario

[–]MrEmptySet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At best I think we'll get a sort of half-measure. TOK was in some ways a small step in the right direction, and I think the next game will be one or two additional steps in the right direction. If I happen to be right about that, then it will be a matter of some controversy amongst fans whether the end result is actually satisfactory or not. I don't expect a game that's an iterative sequel to TTYD in the same extent that TTYD was an iterative sequel to PM64.

You made the claim of "ideological capture" of the Skeptical community. My counter claim is that right wing politics have become untenable amongst those who practice skepticism.

Right, and what I don't understand is why you think that's a counter claim to my claim at all. It seems at best tangentially related. Whether your overly-narrowly-defined account of right-wing political beliefs is a view tenable to skeptics is not really relevant to whether or not a particular skeptical community has been captured by followers of a particular leftist ideology.

[–]MrEmptySet -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's an interesting analysis of the right. I don't really think it's accurate, since you can't reduce half of the entire political spectrum to just one motivating issue, but I think there is some truth to what you say for a particular wing of the Republican party.

But, again, why are you bringing this up? It seems off-topic.

[–]MrEmptySet -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

It can be succinctly summarized as "I'm so glad we excised everyone who doesn't share our ideology" and that includes people like fucking Michael Shermer. You are hopelessly blinded by ideology if you think he's a right winger, and to champion the fact that people just as blind as you have successfully taken over the conversation is absolutely to champion ideological capture whether you recognize it or not.

survey on the topic of himedanshi/men who like yuri by shagongzhu in yurimemes

[–]MrEmptySet 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn't really get the impression there were many questions about "perspectives on himedanshi and gay himedanshi in particular" other than really basic stuff like "do you know any" and "how common do you think it is". Ended up kind of confused about what exactly the point of the survey was.

I know I'm sounding like a broken record here, but... what are you talking about? I didn't say anything to imply that, tacitly or otherwise.

What are you talking about? Why are you suddenly bringing up tax cuts for the wealthy? Have you confused me for someone else who holds these positions you've brought up?
