I grew up in the Caribbean, anyone that wasn’t straight was seen as disgusting and as my father put it once “kill them in the street and no one will care”. I live in Canada now and I can tell you I’m very much glad to be away from places like that.

This is why I raise an eyebrow whenever ostensibly left-leaning people argue that “identity politics” (which I would argue LGBTQ+ issues fall under) are a “distraction” from the U.S.’s economic problems (the so-called “real problem”). We absolutely need universal healthcare and stronger labor laws. But if we don’t…
It’s so funny because as someone who grew up with anime outside of the us (Dominican Republic), it was perceived that anime was very gay (in my family anyway) because of so many ‘feminine’ male characters (Card Captor Sakura and Saint Seiya I’m looking at you) that when I became of age as a gay man myself, I found it…
As a Japanaese American guy that mostly grew up in America, my native countries’ politics are just... weird from an American’s perspective.
How was Forgotten Land ‘open world-style’?
That’s a good one.

The biggest culprit in this debacle is the outdated Hollywood perception that audiences are obsessed with celebrity and simply won’t go see a movie unless there’s a famous name you can stick above the logo.
To me it’s not one, like, big thing, but a thousand little things, most of which don’t look too bad on their own, but come together to kill his whole vibe.
You know who would have been perfect for the voice of Mario?
Has Pratt actually done anything… bad? Like I feel like Elliot Page just went off on the guy for going to church and a whole bunch of people said ok screw this guy because Elliot said so
that’s not to say some of the astroturfed Cyberpunk 2077 reviews don’t make good points.
Whataboutism isn’t a good point, it’s a logical fallacy. The fact that other issues haven’t received the same degree of attention just means that more attention needs to be given to those issues, not that less attention needs to be…
“ A common, copy-pasted sentiment rightly points out that many responding negatively to the invasion cared little about the United States bombing countries like Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, and Somalia, at least when compared to the massive outcry against Russia.”
I´d love to see that whataboutism if Russia decided…
Eh, this is what I’ve come to expect from games journalists these days. I mean, perish the thought that someone calls out Russia’s war crimes without the old “But-but-but what about what the US has done in the past?”
Holy crap, can you please not feed into the whataboutism? At least not yet?
These people are disgusting. Steam needs to shut down services in Russia.
The alternatives have been worse is key. Capitalism aims to make human greed beneficial; it isn’t the cause of it. You don’t magically inspire competent leadership or get people to happily go to work if you get rid of it. It does, however, need regulation. Some things should be socialized too, like medical systems. All…
Because everything about crypto is negative.
