Wait, I thought it was an armillary sphere, not a gyroscope.

I truly don’t get this. I cannot understand why people need to be dead certain these stories are true for them to matter. The thing is, the whole thing is *worse* if it were real. The fact that humans came up with it and transmitted it orally through thousands of generations, what it says about us and about stories is…

Oh my, your life is made so difficult because of some people liking something, how relatable.

To answer the title, I guess we’d stumble like babies for a few years and once everything settled and resolved, we’d live in an universe where it would make more sense to ask the question “what if only white people could get superpowers”.

WAIT.

What the ungodly hell do Jehovah’s witnesses in my three years old comment threads

I’m not speaking about me, I’m speaking about culture at large. Our collective memory. Sure individuals have read the book and will keep doing that, but that doesn’t change anything in the face of the crushing omnipresence of Disney’s version.

The thing is, it doesn’t matter that much.

The Hand’s plans go well beyond Hell’s Kitchen!

Well the thing is whether I’m right and he’s an idiot who can’t take thoughtful criticism because there are too many big words he doesn’t understand, or you’re right and he’s an imbecile who believes Kotaku is a political platform maintained by propagandists who want your poor innocent children to become the gays, my…

Pal, *you* joined the conversation I was having with someone else, so you shut it. Go far and wide, I’m sure there are leagues of articles where you can possibly justify making it all about Ethics in Game Journalism in all of two comments before people realize you’re a lizard person come to sell hot girls in my area.

“What they know will be dishonest”. Man, you’re tearing me up. Please do elaborate on the Evil Conspiracy to Divert Games Reviews into the Realm of Tolerance Propaganda, that definitely sounds like something not fucking dumb

Look I have no fucking clue what train you’re on but this not my debate and not one I could ever feel stupid enough to consider worth my time. Since you’re so keen of ramming whatever nonsense idea you think you have whenever you see a hole, I’m not interested.

Well sure some analyses are terrible the same way everything can be terrible. That’s not what I reacted to. The comment I answered was some dude explicitly saying “I have now come to the point of the review where it speaks of its discourse issues, here’s me sighing.”

Okay, repeat after me: criticizing a work is not criticizing the people who like it. And to back that up, I’ll admit: I love trash. I love campy, terrible shit so much. I love that I can allow myself to watch Quiet’s butt in MGSV from literally *all *the angles and at the same time say “welp, not very progressive…

I literally can’t remember any single still image of the game, testament of how uninteresting it looks to little old I-don’t-like-MMO-because-social-interactions-is-the-plague-of-my-life-also-I’m-bad-at-shooters me. So its politics I know even less.

And more power to you! There’s a place for that in entertainment, and I’ll be the first to denounce the discourse that thinks these should better not exist, and admittedly, a lot of them are.

It’s not the point. (I don’t know the Division, it might be quite fine) it’s about the people who can’t stand to even ask themselves what they’re shooting on.

That’s why I put “sympathetic” right after, to mean any kind of group of people you might feel sorry for in real life.

Look man, AI rendered children also happen to be programs whose form literally means something only to us, but if you don’t get why your relativism argument fails to move me if you say that a game spent murdering children-looking polygon constructs should bear the same significance as a game spent murdering Literally…
