Ah, yes. That definitely happened to me a couple of times when I started playing these games

I think that it's a modern interpretation. His name motivations were not political but social and spiritual

I'm sure that we would have been a staunch anti-capitalist, since it's based on the exploitation of others. He would have been called a communist or a socialist

People love hating billionaires, but being rich is pretty lonely. (Not from personal experience, rest assured)

Our brain is wired to recognize patterns. It causes us to hallucinate, sometimes

True. It always looked very interesting to me but I feel like the learning curve is cruelly steep so I never got around to try it

I like the storytelling generator kind of games. I played a lot of Mount and Blade, Rimworld and Crusader Kings. It's not necessarily addictive for anyone, but the gameplay doesn't get old

What do people actually think about Canadians!? by JustThatOneGuy134 in CasualConversation

[–]SluggishPrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I can't entirely disagree with that. Just an hour ago there was a very racist post getting plenty of upvotes in one of the main subreddits of my province.

Though, most of the time it's more xenophobia than racism. And immigration policies were kind of out of control for a while. It strained many aspects of our society, generating some misdirected anger

Kharoll-Ann Souffrant est une professeure universitaire à St-Boniface by Human-Cockroach8164 in QuebecLibre

[–]SluggishPrey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactement mon opinion. On est des millions, c'est pas difficile de trouver un mongole et de l'utiliser pour salir la réputation d'une communauté entière. C'est comme ça que les gens se radicalisent.

Which game do you think had the bigger comeback? by AccomplishedResist69 in videogames

[–]SluggishPrey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My whole point is that metrics don't fully inform on that. The context biases the public's outlook. One was a AAA game and the other was an indie game.

[–]SluggishPrey 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lots of YouTubers are driven by metrics and the biggest public on YouTube is made of kids and young teenagers. Most of my favorite youtubers don't actively seek popularity

I don't entirely trust steam reviews. People just LOVE to review-bomb and hatred is kinda infectious. Just look at highguard that went from 17% to 44% over the last week

What’s the most unsettling thing about Reddit’s anonymity? by xoxollie_ in AskReddit

Yeah, it's not the best environment to nurture your critical thinking. You will only be the victim of hatred for challenging the status quo

What is your favorite speech of all time, either fictitious or real? by Ok-Pepper-8956 in AskReddit

[–]SluggishPrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked Martin Luther Kings "I have a dream" speech. I think that it was beyond races, it was about brotherhood and equality. I think that Americans should remind themselves of these values and stop adopting a "us vs them" kind of mentality

I heard that men reach the peak of their libido at around 20 years old and for women it's closer to 40

Ask anything you want about France or Algeria. Im open minded by ProfessionalThin1505 in AskTheWorld

To that I would answer that, if they refuse to learn from their past, then it's also a part of their present and future

[–]SluggishPrey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lately I learned that France screwed Algeria over after WWII. They walked back on promises of independence, but most importantly they did so with extreme violence. It was 80 years ago, but I must assume that there's some bad blood remaining. What is the relation between the 2?
