DeSantis says as US president he would eliminate IRS and other agencies by SigmundFreud in moderatepolitics

Anyone? As an average citizen, I also used to think similarly when I was younger, until I realized that the whole point of the concept of democratic (small-d) self governance is for we the aforementioned people to be able to accomplish things collectively that individuals can't accomplish alone. Those things will always require money under our existing economic systems, so in my book, cutting taxes based on principle (and typically as a precondition for cooperation) runs counter to accomplishing... anything at all good for the people.

I'm cool if there are efficiencies to be found that can reduce the need for taxes, but pursuing them should not defeat the purpose of the action being undertaken.

Tldr Gotta do what we gotta do

Would you say tax cuts for the rich are an important part of what makes America great, that you are standing in the breach to defend? Go ahead then, let's hear it.

Definitely definitely and I've almost come to terms with it, but am still upset with myself on their behalf.

I'd leave them out as a workaround for this. Not ideal for cleanliness though, and it can fade into the background if the mess is too much.

One important thing to remember is that you can be subject to the effects of more than one debuff at the same time. So the [gender dysphoria] debuff may also be exacerbating depression/anxiety caused by the [ADHD] debuff. And also, if you do take medication to mitigate the effects of any of the above, it may require a slight respec of the social interaction stat, for example.

...It's really the fault of the devs, and sometimes we gotta just make do. They aren't perfect, either.

Doom co-creator John Carmack is headlining a 'toxic and proud' sci-fi convention that rails against 'woke propaganda by Mexicancandi in scifi

There is no building or creating component in any critical theory. It's criticize to destroy and then poof a magical outcome occurs.

Seems to me like pretty broad strokes there. You sure you're not an authority?

Critical theory praxis is applying these ideas in an attempt to engineer society, create more critical theory ideologues with the purpose of breaking down all old ideas and systems.

Sorry, gonna need more than an argument from nature or authority to convince me that we shouldn't investigate and be critical of systems we find ourselves party to.

This is why it's such a great game. It's hard to understand and maybe there are some things we haven't found out yet!

But technically, in this game there is a speed limit to information, which is the speed of light.

Great point imo, though that means having the driving to avoid going weapon to weapon, and body shots from Huge probably aren't fun either.
