It is gatekeeping though, indirectly if you want to get into semantics.

Right, but for the cases where people don’t bail, you’ve got people who usually never experience end-game content to experience end-game content. And those people who have premade groups literally lose nothing.

Come on..

Maybe scientists can’t explain philosophy because morality isn’t a science?

Bro you are so cringe.

Use the parking brake... when parking?

Oh there’s plenty in the greys if you need a good laugh.

Star Citizen is using Lumberyard, not developing its own engine. And even then, it does not take 10 years to do so.

I love how no one is detecting the sarcasm.

Hey now, he’s a doctor and a SciFi writer and plays Star Citizen every day. Surely, his intelligence and reliability is not to be questioned.

Is this some sort of running joke?

“Out of context, it does look like he’s holding a gun and a can of spray paint, and left his truck suddenly with the driver door still open.”

The Chinese are absolutely racist, you just need to Google it, and one just needs to look at all their violations of Taiwanese airspace to deduce they are sabre rattling too. Just because the US is worse does not change or mitigate that.

When she ascended it was very much a dying empire that still had many territories.

I would argue that the vast majority of the world is not in mourning. Her family, friends, and monarchophiles do not constitute even a double digit percentage of the world.

“Well, I WOULD argue it’s the exchange of all collected human knowledge, but yeah.”

The stuff the monarchy did generations ago has multi-generational effects. So yeah those complaints are valid. Being stripped of your land, for example, crushes a family’s ability to generate wealth and pass it down and poverty was absolutely a weapon that colonial powers employed to keep native populations subjugated.

Again you are not appreciating scale. No one is claiming that either Biden or the queen were evil. It is just absurdly stupid to suggest that we cannot examine and criticize the manner in which the British monarchy achieved its status in privilege simply because we live within the borders of a first world country. The…

Yeah, there’s a vast difference from being an incidental recipient of privilege (being born in the first world) and being the literal head of a monarchy that plundered the world for centuries. I’m sure you can appreciate that.

They’ll come after Jews long before they come after Catholics.
