Replying to my own post here to just point out that this, what you’re seeing here in real time, has been a part of Russian geopolitical disinformation strategies for *checks watch* over 70 years.

what·a·bout·ism

“Killing civilians is bad” is a moral stance, not a political one, tovarish.

STICK TO SPROTS

tbf the Russian propaganda machine is pushing the talking point hard via astroturf campaigns. They literally are “using said racism as a shield against criticism”.

idk what the best response to whataboutism is, but I’m pretty sure it isn’t *defending the war on terror*.

Holy crap, can you please not feed into the whataboutism? At least not yet?

So, because they can’t do everything, they should do nothing?  That’s a pretty defeated attitude.

Nah. His uncle, who works for Nintendo, said that it won’t come out this year. That’s so true.

Like how Hank The Tank is actually 3 bears?

What do you mean there was four years where they couldn’t show they won? Someone gonna say to em “if you did actually win best independent game, then where’s your trophy?” Call em liars?

despite receiving it from Ninja live on stage, the shows organisers took the trophy back shortly afterwards and said they’d mail it to them after the show

Yes please, mainly because the PC Gamepass app is unreliable as hell.

Analysts are already predicting a minimum of a 40% improvement to the smell

I think a lot of people know it.
But its like praying...people need something to look up to. To give hope. Even if the chances are horrible against them, they need this to keep on fighting. To push back.

You gotta consider how people are watching it. They’re watching very compressed, low res videos on their phones, probably not even full screen. And most people don’t know what actual fighter jet combat looks like (myself included).

Well think about the idea that there are 5+ million streamers on Twitch and you only read articles about a dozen of asshats. Not to say there aren’t more asshats with no articles about them, but there are vastly more non-shitty streamers than there are shitty ones.

No one cares about an article titled “Normal streamer has a normal stream and nothing interesting happened”. The news always seems shitty because, frankly, stuff being normal is not news.

Exactly, with the millions of possible configurations there are bound to be problems. I only had the option of PC or PS4 Pro and my PC is slightly more capable.

There IS no NATO in ukraine right now, and we have war.
