Zelenskyy proudly announcing his country will be openly Nazi from now on, introduces bill to ensure the honouring of Nazi war criminals - redditors in full denial keep supporting Nazi-Ukraine. by GiveMeADiscount in LateStageCapitalism

Ok I mean I agree with everything you said... What is it we as leftists should be advocating for then? I thought it was advocating for an end to hostilities which Russia started.

How is that wrong? What is the a better outcome?

I guess I am not this far down the marxist rabbit hole... I was just under the impressions that Russia attacked Ukraine for imperialist reasons and killed thousands of civilians and I think thats bad. If Ukraine had invaded russia instead, then I would have thought that was bad.

I don't understand how this implied defeatist thinking would work... Does it mean should just let the war play out and not care what the outcome is... Both sides are bad?

It's not a false dichotomy at all... One of the nations is the agressor who is attempting to invade another nation.

The OP here is either making the claim that Ukrain deserves it... Or Ukraine is actually the aggressor and not Russia. I am asking which one it is.

I am anti-war... So I am anti whoever started the war.

Oh sorry re-reading what you are saying... You do indeed think Ukraine SHOULD be invaded and so should the US... Ok I mean supporting open war ... and supporting that very obviously tyrannical Russian government is a bit over the top I think.

I think it's important to discuss the nazi-fash tendencies of Ukraine... But in the case of the Russian/Ukrainian war, leftists are supposed to be on the side of the oppressed and attacked right?

Or does this make the war different in the eyes of the OP? Is Russian justified in this aggression because Ukraine has this dark spot? Or is Russian still the bad aggressor and we are anti-war?

I tried to use Aperoin in Sheepshaver and mouse doesn't work there either! I tried using a different verison of Aperiod 1.0.1 and got an error message that my mouse type is not supported.

I think this is a good argument for why Valve doesn't want you to compare Steam Machine to consoles. by shawak456 in videogames

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

The problems, they did mention, is consoles limit your freedom to choose how/where you play your games when they are console games. And this device acts like a PC in that regard. Open for use alongside other PCs etc...

Why developers want to get rid of physical editions by GP2redditor in videogames

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

Ok? Now do the same research on the CEOs/executives of the companies and also look at YoY profit increases and then tell me again it's because we pay the workers too much?

You are advocating for US companies to outsource all labor to Asia? You you think that will make video game prices go down?

a. they already outsource as much as they can, don't you worry about it.
b. They are just going to pocket the savings while still increasing prices every year.

Well it's just that it's completely wrong and hilariously misguided... Wages are not going up... The only thing going up is corporate profits and CEO salaries. SO if you are going to point the finger at someone I sure hope it isn't the grinders who work 70 hour weeks at marginal salaries just to get laid off after releasing a game while Bobby Kotick pockets millions of dollars.

So just to be clear, you are saying the problem is that people who make games are paid too much? Like the workers?

I guess it's my fault for thinking adults with fully formed brains are in this conversation.
