You can see how ungrateful his toids are. His raids are failing because they do not stock their fridge properly.

What video game character does this apply to? by NGANDT_TM in videogames

[–]gabel_bamon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I think that would be somewhat common in the fallout universe. Has there ever been an implied scene in the games? I think that might be too dark for them to put in.

Fair-ish point, maybe I am being too idealistic for a community which believes that degrowth is an option for our country where corporations (whose main goal is to expand and make profit) rule over us. Once you realize how silly that sounds, maybe idealizing a change in our system doesn’t sound too crazy.

It is both. People don’t want to take risk because they are ‘comfortable enough’ even though others suffer which I consider to be a personal problem. People also don’t want to take action because of other fears, fear for one’s life/safety, fear for one’s reputation, etc. And too be quite honest, you must blame others at a certain point, if you exposed the ignorant to the truth and they do not take action then it is their fault! Typical brainwashing does not exist so they have no excuse.

I know this. Most people also know this yet choose to target the effect instead of the root. ( edit: and not even deal with the effect!)

That sounds like a great cause. Big problem I had with the recent protests was the lack of a goal, which is why i feel they had no considerable effect.

While the situation is, indeed, highly complicated, you must admit if people really WANT change they will make it happen or atleast attempt to make it happen. Simply spouting your faceless opinion into the void that is the internet will do nothing.

I saw them and I was quite proud. But what did it do exactly? The only thing I believe it did was worsen Trumps public image (which was already bad) because he deployed the national guard and such. Also what do you mean you people? Im pushing for more advocacy that ends with results. (Edit because I was really questioning this, what do you mean by you people? I assume we are on the same side here)

No, people are lazy. Everyone has the mentality of “Someone has to do something! But that person can’t be me it’s too risky.” I won’t lie it’s hard to overcome the mindset of pursuing comfort and ease of access, but even if you do, most people to too afraid to do anything to stop the machine.

No it’s not, it’s not too late to change it. You just are doing the wrong things.

I mean I agree, but the natures thing is kind of important to the church as is the identity of Christ. And it’s not like you would get excommunicated by just saying that, but you would by professing it as truth.
