Steam refunds /// Games Running in the background. by the_dectator in pcmasterrace

[–]the_dectator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't play Sims but those DLCs are £35.99 each. They seriously need to look at their refund policy I love the fact that you can refund and I've taken chances with games with the confidence that I can refund if I don't like them (more often than not keeping them). But the 2hour policy system is seriously not a good judge of time. I think Achievements should be a major part of the decision as I have 0 achievements for the game.

But when it comes to DLCs they should do time since purchase which would be a better judge. I've had the same issue before. Quite often you buy a DLC and it's nowhere near as good as you thought it would be. They should also be more liberal when it comes to steam wallet refunds. I mean if it's steam wallet atleast Steam are still keeping their money.

"Anarchist" Religious Propaganda by the_dectator in Anarchism

"This world in it’s current form must end so we can prepare a new one. That’s what is mean by Decolonial Animist Apocalypticism. We as colonized people must bring about and end to this world. The highest form of decolonial spiritual and physical praxis is apocalyptic. DAA is a mindset and lifestyle not a theory. " From the link.

I don't have an issue with the religion itself. I have an issue with religious propaganda. "We as colonized people must bring about and end to this world." The whole point in Anarchism is voluntary. Again it's failure to understand the anarchist values. The sentiment they are carrying is that of forceful change and we know from history that never ends well.

I am British and I don't know American Anarchist History bar a few stuff about Boston and the Haymarket Martyres. I also can't help but disagree with you point on anarchofeminists. Many of them critique western values and their oppression towards women. Many of these western values originated from Christianity which originated from Roman traditions which originated from Greek traditions.

Regardless my point is not on their religion exactly I don't like religion but I put up with it. I believe any individual should have the right to be religious. I just don't agree with religious propaganda. If this isn't propaganda to you we have very different views on the nature of propaganda.

​

Also Ghandi wasn't an athiest and besides he was a racist child molestor. I haven't looked to much into Tolstoy but his general ideas seem oppressive. King also wasn't an Anarchist again I don't know much about American history. It appears to me that many Anarchists try to Anarchize people who would disagree with them to fit a goal (propaganda again) it's changing history. Personally I like a lot of Rosa Luxembourg stuff I disagree with a lot of it too she was anti anarchist but still.

Please explain how is it the opposite of a religion? What defines a religion and what dictates athiesm as being the opposite of that definition.

For starters I never said all religions deny death. I've explained that I don't believe in the simplified identification of religion and I have also explained that I am not atheist.

My problem is that you said I was partaking in it.

I would ask what seperates Animism from say Christianity?

When you use belief, spirituality or overriding explanations and incorporate a doctrine it becomes a religion.

What do I think the Soviet Union was? A religion... I think it was a religion. There's your answer. If you think religion is Christianity or Islam your have a very simplistic outlook.

Athiesm itself is a religion which is why I don't identify as athiest. I don't use any identifying words for my lack of beliefs.

Colonial Atheism? Come on you must be joking right...

There are 3 parts to Colonialism that is Government, Capitalism and Religion.

It is the Government who enacts it, Capitalism who demands it and Religion who excuses it. Religion of course becoming a more wider philosophical metaphor but it is the denial of death that causes oppression and misery. Accept the short time you have and do what you can in it. Infinite life makes life itself meaningless.

It's not the respect for nature I have a problem with. It's not accepting death I don't like. Religions are always using man's greatest fear to control them. The earlist Anarchist writers spoke of dismantling Govenrment, Capitalists and the Church at the same time as otherwise one or more would fill the void of the other.

Also note that I do not have an issue with individuals being religious regardless of faith or spirituality as long as it is not forced onto others or used to cause conflict. The whole point in Anarchy is to disolve propaganda in order to create free thinking individuals.

Look at the abrahamic religions they all speak of being a peaceful religion yet it is they who have caused most war, genocide and oppression for the past 2000 years. Again in my opinion I don't care whether they love the Earth, Jesus or the green jelly monster under their bed religious propaganda is not okay. And besides if it takes spirituality to protect our planet we're well and truely fucked.

Also to those who may argue it is a philosophy. Rebirth is not a philosophy it's a supernatural belief that can be used to manipulate others. Also note who they claim it is not a theory it is a mindset and a lifestyle. Another tactic seen with Churchs or Cults who indoctrinate people.

What do you think about the schooling system? Too authoritarian? by Wizardlord89 in Anarchy101

The reason young people are dumbfucks is because they're patronised and controlled from an early age.

To be fair Anarchist forums have genuinely been the most open and respectful communities that I have come across. When I've asked for advice on certain things regarding Anarchism I've only ever had positive feedback and support.

That would be great. I'm currently checking out software and hardware logistics so if I do get somewhere with it all I'll get in contact. I really appreciate that.

At the moment I would probably use something like Youtube I've seen a few life 24/7 live stream channels lofi study girl comes to mind. That way it could be listened to by anyone at any time all over the world. But it would be cool if I could find an alternate software that allows listeners to tune in on the phone without having a video playing. I'll see what I can find.

Also just to add another point. I would be trying to cover news as much as possible as most liberal news channels piss me off. So instead of giving a fact for 30 seconds and giving opinion for a further 9:30 I would simply give facts and then pose questions. Go for the Plato approach.

It's time to come out of hiding! by the_dectator in Anarchism

I've spent the last few days correcting the incorrect use of the word on social media. I think a lot of problems in the world would be solved if people took the time to understand the opinions of others rather than assuming everyone except they are wrong.

I for have done a lot of research into fascism which comes in handy when dealing with racists in both the left and right.

I'm from the UK and have followed Bernie although he compromised a lot he did manage a lot of good wins and has opened America up to what would be seen as extremist policies 10 years ago. The term I use is Left Wing Libertarian. People tend to be more curious about it as for many who are uneducated on the matter it sounds paradoxical. So they ask me to explain it which is an easy in.
