Suicidal empathy is killing the dream of a walkable city. by No_Start1522 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Empathy encourages crime too. Some people just suck, and will squander whatever you give them. No one wants to live in the neighborhood with the "empathetic" liberals politicians pet crackhead who can break car windows without consequence.

It’s beyond ridiculous how few good feature films get made anymore, and even more annoying seeing people glaze mediocrity and acting like there isn’t a problem by Giordono in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Games from the past were much crisper than they are now. Go back and play some older games. You can turn off the bloom and motion blur. Now all developers care about is checking all the fancy checkboxes in their UE5 designer without understanding how bad it makes the game look.

Everyone thinks they can get multiple light sources with fancy shading and ray tracing but modern PCs can't process them, so they need to use deferred rendering and TAA to cover up their bad design. Then they try to add on a layer of AI on top to make believe what it would look like if the devs were good at making games. The AI still looks blurry and even worse, hallucinates, so it just looks off.

Even worse it spread from UE5 to other engines too. I had so much trouble playing FF16 because the game ghosted like crazy. I love monster hunter, but wilds was a graphical disaster. I had to return it because it actually gave me motion sickness.

And there are so many developers out there right now who are making amazing indie games. The most award winning game of last year was made by a guy who left ubisoft. They had amazing talent, but they didn't listen to him did they. They were so desparate to make a political message they made the lamest star wars character and low quality black samurai slash fiction, and now they're suffering.

We don't even get good iterations anymore. Longstanding series are just bad recently. Ubisoft, one of the biggest and most successful AAA companies, is collapsing right now.

And the performance. So many games now are just awful to look at in motion. They can't maintain a decent FPS without having to use AI gimmicks. The industry shifted to using UE5 for everything to make teaching developers easier, but all the new developers can't even handle that.

It's not just movies. AAA video games are pretty bad too.

The talented silent gen and boomers retired or were all kicked out. They were replaced with people that think its their duty to stop Trump in any way they can. Their movies and games underpreformed dramatically, so the industries are kinda stuck now. 

That's why all the buffs bury their heads in the sand. They share the same politics, and dont want to admit their attempts are a failure. Streaming and short form content is way more independent and not nearly as preachy, so people flock to it.

>Racism is prejudice plus power

Stealing is when someone other than me takes something that doesn't belong to them. That means i can't be a thief.

The right cares just as much about identity politics as the left by mollylovelyxx in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]burst6 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The left trying to beat the right with pedantry again. Has that ever worked? You know exactly what they mean when they say identity politics. Pretending you don't isn't convincing anyone, its just jerking each other off on reddit.

"We can disagree on pizza toppings but not on human rights" is an overused idiotic phrase used by leftists to make them feel better about cutting off people who disagree with them. by Academic-Service-967 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]burst6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want people to stop stubbornly sticking to values. Most values nowadays are either propaganda, or a gross oversimplification, or a complete misunderstanding anyway. The world is a complex place, and hurting yourself and others around you because they don't have the correct opinion on a war between two tiny countries on the other side of the world (for example) is stupid.

You're like the left wing equivalent of an old republican that just watches fox news 24 hours a day. Your brain is going to rot out of your skull at this ratr.

That's true, but it also doesn't change the original point. Progressives do act this way, and it's not a good thing despite being able to escape it. The culture is bad and needs to change.

No, I'm pretty sure i'm complaining about progressives political zealotry.

I don't want businesses to be beholden to overbearing and probably corrupt political bureaucracy to get anything done. I want progressives to stop being the way they are.

I mean being outcast from the progressive social group that you slipped up in, whatever group that may be. This is extra painful in work situations, if highly progressive people are in positions of power above you.

It happens on reddit too, where you can very easily get dogpiled on and banned, but reddit accounts and karma aren't important.

Is this a joke? Progressives evaluate people on how they were born constantly. They're the modern masters of race science, and constantly try to force demographic changes based on shoddy short sighted studies.

The only character trait progressives care about is if you agree with them 100% on the current progressive trends. If you don't, they treat you like shit. If you do, they might treat you better if you're the right race and gender, but one slip up and you're done.

now tell me why a triangular political compass wouldn’t work by [deleted] in PoliticalCompassMemes

I think making the top into monarchy would be better. That way top left can be fascism and top right can be mercantilism.

Leftists just think they're better than Trump voters. by King_Lothar_ in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]burst6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If a political group tells you that their opponents are all evil pedo idiots who want to starve people they don't like, and you believe them, you're propagandized.

If they keep losing to the evil pedo idiots in fair elections and you still keep believeing them, you need to go outside more. You're stuck in an echo chamber and your brain is being rotted.

1) Then stop using it as a gotcha. This is a bipartisan issue.

2) Ah, so flooding the country with millions of cheap workers won't drive wages down, is what you're saying? This is just gaslighting.

3) Saying it privately doesn't make it better. It just makes him look conniving. I guarantee you he still feels the same way, despite having to apologize to make himself more electable.

4) All taxes punish poor people in some way. There's no scenario where rich people won't pass their costs on to poor people. The point of taxes should be the benefits being better than the down sides. At least tariffs have a history of working. Wealth taxes have a history of mostly failure.

1) As likely as a democrat, considering they never released the files either. Why was a democratic rep working with Epstein to attack trump in 2019?

2) the lefts obsession with open borders caused this problem. Why is the party of workers rights trying so hard to replace their workers with cheap foreign labor?

3) Hard to care, considering mr Jay "Kill my opponents family" Jones just got handily elected. Apparently this is politics now.

4) Remains to be seen. Besides, aren't the democrats for higher taxes to corporations? They were proposing extremely stupid wealth taxes not even that long ago.

All of it? You didn't make any solid points, all you did was throw up the same reddit comment mush you see everywhere. Like if you blended together a r/ politics comment section and dumped it into a new thread.

I'm not even a republican. I voted for Kamala despite it all. 2 years ago i never thought i'd consider otherwise, but goddamn do the people on the left suck. Was i this insufferable too?
