Activism is, by nature, at least a little self serving. You take the things you’re worried about, that scare you, and you try to get other people worried about them too. And it doesn’t help when other people try to come in and dilute your message by shouting about their unrelated worries. It divides focus, and makes…

Separate movements? More like divide and conquer.

Judaism for one, but also Buddhism, Confucianism, and some smaller pagan religions that I doubt are very popular, but also probably face even more persecution than Christianity.

Huh, I didn’t know that, but it makes a lot of sense. 

I forgot that any fact you dislike is an “excuse”.

It talks about giving preference to minority religions, not just Christians. 

Top 5 in the world is pretty decent, especially considering we’re so large. It’s easy for a tiny country like Norway or Sweden to outrank us. They’re tiny, hegemonic, almost completely urban countries. Our rich, urban areas are dragged down by the poor rural ones in the middle of our country. If you only look at…

If you lack any of those things when you create something, then what the hell are you creating something for?

If you look hard enough, you can BS political messages for most games, but there’s a difference between overt political messages and less noticable ones. Any game where you fight a faceless empire bent on destroying the world that doesn’t resemble any real world counterparts, for instance, can be considered more or…

I just finished Diablo 3. The only politics I could find there involved overthrowing evil demon lords. It’s not hard to make an apolitical story, even Scifi/fantasy.

Not everybody wants The Illiad or Lord of the rings though. Some of us just want to shoot zombies without being besieged with political messages. And yes, I think it’s absolutely possible to create art or entertainment without making it political. Show me the political messages in Street Fighter or Diablo. There…

That’s right. Everyone’s being a dick. But sometimes, you need to be a dick to keep other people from being dicks.

Reporting them creates consequences for their non-sportsmanlike actions.

So what happens when I join and I play for the very first time?

In a team game, you can’t always play the game how you want to play it. Imagine playing basketball with a guy who just kept taking half court shots whenever he got the ball, missing almost all of them. You’d want to stop playing with him, right? He’s actively hindering your ability to play the game how you want to…

Their role as snipers make them much easier to suck at. Or to put it another way, there’s a higher skill level required if you’re playing a sniper, because you need super accurate shots, unlike a tank or someone attacking from a shorter range.

I don’t know about every single one, but I know Game of Thrones is $3/episode on the Google Playstore.

Google Play sells GoT at only $30 a season. Why would you pay $20 a month to watch it?

I’d be fine paying a bit for a product I want to see, but I’m not going to go get an whole HBO subscription for GoT which is the only place I can find it legally.

That sounds like a decent take away to me.
