Treating bad ideas as equally valid is not even remotely the point of non-violent confrontation of bad ideas.

I never thought I’d live to see the day when a segment of leftists (and I consider myself a leftist) would unironically consult Captain America comics for political cues. That’s been the weirdest part of all of this.

I’d argue that it’s actually counterproductive, not just a neutral, do-nothing act. Spencer has gotten enormous amounts of publicity out if it. Milo is getting book deals and pre-sales out of the violence used to shut him down, and is almost certainly booked solid for “appearances” (which likely yield him more…

Everyone defending violence here is full of shit. That is all.

Yeah, I get that the game wants to give all players some kind of rewarding feedback after the match is over, but sometimes I feel like medals are more curse than blessing. They unfortunately are used as cover whenever the completely valid issue of team composition comes up. If Overwatch were a deathmatch game, that…

Yep. Number of eliminations has nothing inherently to do with it. A great Hanzo can be picking off individual squishies on the edges, but if what the team really needs is quality kills on the point/payload, he’s not being effective in helping to achieve that goal. Particularly if everyone else is playing more…

What if you’re really good with Sombra and not as good with other characters?

Nobody cares. She’s a dumb cunt.

I was annoyed, I was THIS close to finally getting that 20-kill-streak PS4 trophy ...

As long as I’m still able to rack up crazy eliminations at the Temple of Anubis while defending as Bastion; it’s hilarious how many players in QP will simply line up trying to control Objective B without checking their left or right.

When I first heard the music, I was blown away, and couldn’t believe they’d gone to all the trouble to (a) have such a sophisticated score composed for the game, and (b) have it recorded by an actual orchestra. The weirdest bit of trivia about DQ8 is that the North American version got the symphonic score, while the…

If you died and had to run back to town in the PS2 version, at least you got to listen to one of the best video game scores of all time while you were doing it. My understanding is that the soundtrack on the 3DS is an inferior sequenced version.

I’ll spell out why we treat them so nicely. OIL. They’re the figurehead of OPEC. You want to pay $10 a gallon? Then by all means go and piss off the Saudis.

“But Obama...” Nuh uh. Shush.

“Disrespecting your opponent can be a psychological play. A ban for taunting removes an important human aspect. Competitive games can tell a story about the players if you let them. Trying to force everyone to be ‘friendly’ is shortsighted.”

I’ve been playing Ana more than usual lately, and this skin just makes me want to continue that trend.

There’s also a cool purple skin for Ana!

Eh, I disagree. Most months usually have something halfway intriguing. Not long ago, they gave away Sleeping Dogs, just as an example.

The republicans were all for it, the dems all against it, and now we enter the world of crazy.

It usually has to come from a position of power, and the “pantsuit brigade” as you put it, is certainly not in power right now.
