    “Why care about other countries instead of focusing on our own” is often a manipulative way to say “let’s allow xenophobia and sacrifice other nationalities to fuel our own”.

    And I’m sorry, but the guy in the last picture probably has it much easier than people going through the war in Ukraine.


  • The guy is a nazi trying to pull off some utterly stupid rethoric of “oh noes the evil trans people are coming to discriminate against us and replace us”.

    I’ve never seen something so absurd and would advise the writer to go seek help.

    What I’m seeing is a guy who panics because he’s a transphobic piece of shit and is seeing that the world is changing and he won’t be allowed to be discriminatory as much as before. And he’s using the typical crap of “why not sit and talk” that nazis love to use. “Why do you censor my nazi opinions instead of talking about why we should kill black people or not?” would be a similar line.











  • The inability to remove files from your drive is quite a lot.

    And DRM-free games on steam are not that many, most have at least something that closes the game if you don’t have steam running and I’m a bit sick of having to use goldberg every time I want to use a game without starting steam.

    Of course GoG has a lot of (pretty bad) issues, but it’s like comparing a cold to a cancer, it’s absurd. Steam is actively destroying both game ownership (by allowing more and more DRM methods, now with games telling you to accept 5 different terms of use all indicating that you are heavily tracked while using the game for example) and game quality by encouraging the shittiest game, with a main page being completely unusable if you don’t filter out keywords such as nudity, nsfw, mmorpg, etc. GoG isn’t to that extent. Other things exist and if for example Itch had a better interface and search system it would unequivocally be the best game platform I am aware of as of now, sure. But trying to say that GoG and steam are the same (or that GoG is worse) is really not possible to do unless you actually don’t give a shit about games.
