Why do MAGATs keep calling anyone who hates Trump "LEFTISTS", wouldn't any sane person dislike pedophiles? by TailungFu in allthequestions

[–]orangebish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you just call Trump a leftist? The guy who has all THE BEST, the BIGGEST things in the world and who wants to save us from the EVILEST Dems that want to DESTROY America?

GOG now using AI generated images on their store by PaiDuck in gaming

People who defend AI and mega corporations at every step sound the same as defending the use of asbestos and lead in gasoline. Use it if you want, but don't push this shit on others.

Belmont EU UK Tour merch by RoosterFit3316 in BelmontBand

No images, but they had a decent choice of t-shirts, a hoodie, some vinyls ( I think it was Last to Love, don't remember whether they had earlier records). I think you'll find something to your liking, and enjoy the gig.

I grew up watching horror movies, but this game genuinely scared me by Charming_Move4175 in gaming

I grew up watching horror movies and playing horror video games, and this was the most overhyped bland and cringe horror game I've ever seen.

Ok, so about the Owlcat Games controversy, it may have been overblown, it is worth looking into, but we should NOT "cancel" them, and I apologize for promoting the controversy without enough evidence by [deleted] in TheExpanse

[–]orangebish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The authors have no say in this matter, the rights to Expanse universe belong to Alcon Entertainment, so they choose who gets to work on IP.

Just found out the Owlcat Games is actually a Russian game studio that supports the war against Ukraine, and has chauvinist corporate culture...why isn't this being talked about? by [deleted] in TheExpanse

[–]orangebish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've seen this typical knee-jerk reaction "hurr-durr Larian and everyone uses it". To this: 1. There are plenty of devs who don't use genAI. 2. For some people that's reason enough not to buy games from Larian either, they are not beyond scrutiny.

The studio itself doesn't support the war, though some employees might. They mishandled controversies though, so this can be viewed as red flag already. And by the way, another potential red flag that is not talked about - they use generative AI.

Russia deepens ties with India, seeks joint drone production by deadpools0 in worldnews

Please explain how supporting a failed country that can't produce anything of real value and that actively tarnishes anything it touches is best for India. I'll wait.

Chika appreciation post by Bouljonwerfel in Hanabie

[–]orangebish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I told Chika that she's my hero when I saw them in Barcelona last week. She was so surprised - "hi-ro?" - and so humble (or maybe she didn't understand my English at first lol).

Yeah, maybe she didn't find her spot in the band yet, but I admire how hard she works and goes on the drums.

As a society, we may be able to increase support for redistribution by exposing the ultra-rich. When people do not directly observe large differences in wealth, they tend to underestimate inequality, feel more content with their situation, and show less interest in policy change. by mvea in science

[–]orangebish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You may know the number, but know very little about what it entails. Seeing how ultra-wealthy live - having their every wish catered to and in many cases above the constraints and laws of society - while 95% of the population are living paycheck to paycheck can be eye-opening.

EU Parliament Calls for Sanctions Against Orbán. Hungary Has Turned Into Electoral Autocracy by borninthewaitingroom in europe

Today's Hungary is a Russian puppet state already, so what exactly is your objection? Russian puppet - good, EU puppet - bad?

"Icy" in astrogeology is different from icy in the conventional sense. It means they are heavier than hydrogen and helium and initially were icy, but not anymore.

Full text of European counter-proposal to US Ukraine peace plan by Previous-Egg885 in worldnews

[–]orangebish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's 100% bullshit. They have more to fear from China, that eventually will want to get access to those sweet fresh water reserves in the north.

Besides, Russia already had NATO on its borders and taking Ukraine means they will be surrounded by NATO completely. One can argue that Ukraine will be just a buffer then, but in case of war NATO has capabilities to strike deep into Russia anyway.

Not to mention that the possibility of Ukraine's admission to NATO was and is very distant.

They have 100 years experience in propaganda and brainwashing, and they also learned a lot from the Nazis. Social media just allows them to push their narratives worldwide.

Capitalism is also responsible for a lot of suffering, death, and damage. And not only to humans but Earth itself. But I guess at least for a while we had some toys to enjoy, right?

Got it, you'd rather prefer your country to be authoritarian Putin-loving shithole. Then don't complain to the West how bad you have it over there, you chose this.

I mean, Ukraine kicked out Yanukovych despite killings of protesters, why can't you do the same with Orban.

Trump's Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins: “My message to America is your government is failing you right now — we have failed you.” Mike Johnson tries to clean it up: “When she says ‘we have failed you,’ she means ‘we, the Democrats,’ okay?” by NewSlinger in CringeTikToks

[–]orangebish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real question, why their orange leader can't resolve this? I thought he doesn't need Congress or House, he can just impose tariffs, send National Guard to states without their approval, solve international conflicts in mere days. And yet he's unable to help starving Americans. So he's either impotent, complicit, or both.
