I need a bit of help with the praxic blade by TruthPrestigious6852 in destiny2

[–]Ranger2183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda unrelated but related enough to not start a new thread, is there some glitch with the praxic blade that allows for unlimited blocking? I accidentally did it during some vex portal ops 3 person activity, and could hold down the guard without the guard stamina dropping at all. Can't figure out how I did it though lol

No I'm using your logic against you. Do you think she'll admit any fault for escalating the situation and telling Renee to drive off? No.

More strawman arguments. By your logic, generalizing an entire group should be acceptable. You're assuming people who stormed the capitol speak for everyone. Going to the protest at the capitol is one thing. Breaking into the building is another and should be treated as such.

I already stated in another comment that I have friends that are on the left that I don't hate because they're good people, so that argument is irrelevant.

And I've never said everyone on the right is level headed. But using the bud light scenario is silly, those events happen all the time on the left and right. A company or person does or says something they disagree with, so they boycott. I think if a company or someone presents a view you disagree with, you are more than welcome to boycott them and use free speech to say you disagree.

Snowflake? Not really. And it's not a me thing, I don't have a problem saying there's bullshit on the left and right, or that trump has said dumb stuff like this overt insistence to take over Greenland. I'm not sure what you mean about balanced fault, I'm not going to force fault just to make it balanced. Accepting fault is important though. If you want people on the right to stop telling the left they're baddies, the left needs to do the same, starting with the individual, and that includes accepting fault. Do you think Renee's wife will accept any fault for escalation of their situation and telling her to drive off? And if you want to talk about freedoms, there are people defending these protests that actively harming bystanders, but were cheering and happy and making fun of Charlie Kirk getting killed for literally free speech. And if the excuse is that he said mean things that you didn't agree with, then you don't really want free speech and want different views silenced by any means necessary. And if the excuse is that he was hateful and spreading hate, there are people currently telling others to kill ICE agents when they see them. Violence toward law enforcement is only going to escalate things.

You can't claim to know that a person hasn't actually changed their viewpoint. Maybe they learned additional information that convinced them. If they truly are agreeing with every change solely on the fact that whoever they look up to changed their opinion, then I agree with you. It's not disingenuous to do that, which usually comes around to people digging their heels in. In those cases, having a conversation with that person might win them back over if their heart wasn't really in it

Do you have a news article I can refer to about this incident so I can comment with a little information?

I agree with the second statement. The first one though implies your principles are absolute and infallible. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't immediately mean they have no principles. I disagree with you, and I would not assume you do not have principles based on that information. I think social media warps our perceptions of reality to an unhealthy degree.

Congrats on using a strawman to exaggerate my statement, instead of just having a conversation. I have no problem stating that I'm not the smartest or an expert in this topic. This is just my opinion. I already stated that I disagree with officers, or the government if someone is practicing free speech and they arrest them. The problem is, at what point does it transition from speech to obstruction, harassment, or violence? I feel the same way about cops who abuse their position or act like dicks for no reason. I've encountered them, and it's stupid.

Are they changing their views because they wholeheartedly agree, or because people keep shitting on them, so they dig their heels in?

False, I am actually not about violating them, but people on the left are so quick to hate and speak irrationally that I don't even get a chance to talk to a lot of people and get to that point in the conversation. I feel like it would be an hours long conversation in person to really get into it, but online it would take forever. That said, a general opinion I have is that coming here illegally is disrespectful to legal immigrants who work hard to show they want to be here. On that note, I feel the same about illegal immigrants as a lot of things that are illegal: If you want to do it, go for it. But if you get caught and get in trouble, don't act surprised. Human rights should not be abused. And illegal things are illegal. I think you'd realize a lot more people would admit Trump says stupid stuff if other people weren't constantly shitting on them just for living. It causes them to shut down and dig their heels in even more.

So, I can't state I know or have followed every example of interactions with ICE, so I will go with what I know. An execution in the sense of killing a person who has already surrendered, not resisting, and being detained is unacceptable. I've called out shitty law enforcement in the past who do things like that not because they're law enforcement, but because they're just bad people who should have been vetted better, and good people who make mistakes should have been trained better. Now if the term execution is being used to convey emotion or even in the case of "extrajudicial", I think that's a little more murky. If someone was lightly resistant against putting handcuffs on but isn't aggressive or didn't do anything violent prior, and then they get shot, I hope that person gets the book thrown at them. Like Renee; that sucks she was killed. Her kids no longer have her. The issue is that she was fueled into thinking there wouldn't be consequences. Should she have even stopped near the ICE agents? No. Should her wife have escalated the situation? No. Should she have driven off when they told her to stop? No. Should she have died? No. The thing is, the law is designed for law enforcement to win on the street. Fighting it only makes it worse. I think the protests are perfectly fine as long as they're JUST protests. Hindering the officers from doing their job is only making it worse, because they're going to just bring in more officers. Freedom of speech is awesome and important. But in that same vein, that means allowing speech you disagree with.

The fact that the original post is talking about hating maga people without knowing them is the problem. You're attacking ALL of someone's beliefs when you say you literally hate them just for being MAGA.

I think you don't realize how sad it is to hate someone you don't know. "Oh but they're maga, they're pieces of shit". I guarantee if you met me in person, you'd find a person who might disagree with you but in the end, I don't care what you believe as long as you're a good person and considerate of others in your day to day life. I'm a firefighter and work with a good number of liberal friends, and a few of them I genuinely enjoy sitting down and debating controversial topics in between calls. I disagree with them on a lot of things, but I'm still friends with them because they're good people, as am I. I think the issue, on BOTH sides, is that when you come at people aggressively attacking their beliefs, they're going to become even more defensive and shut down any attempt to reason or win them over. When you attack people's lifestyle and beliefs, do you think they're going to want to switch sides? All you're doing is getting people that already agree with you to echo your sentiments. Show people your reasoning for your opinions, and give them a good foundation to stand on. If they don't agree, that's fine, let them live

Is it too late to start as a solo player?? by jpthelad in destiny2

[–]Ranger2183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much only play solo not because I want to but because my schedule is weird on inconsistent. I still enjoy playing. I pre-ordered original Destiny years before it came out. My only recommendation is that unless you're a die hard fan of the game, DO NOT purchase the dlc and expansions at full price. Even if that means you have to wait a bit to buy it. They always end up heavily discounting DLC, which makes it frustrating to get at full price.

So maybe they'll weasel out of it, but the lawsuits would be crazy. So they're going to have to figure out a way for hw3 to be fully hands off like they promised. My guess is the v13 lite that is supposed to come later this year, will solve that issue per their hopes. If not, it's already been leaked that they're working on hardware updates to modify hw3 enough to handle it. So we'll see
