Isn’t Ubisoft a French company? How is it relevant that he’s French?

You’d be saying the opposite if he supported whatever you believed in.

So I guess when Tripwire has the town hall to allow all their employees to voice their opinions and be inclusive, they only really want to hear from you if you share the exact same opinion as them....

Ah, the wannabe bully logged in. Finally you can indulge in your needs without any kind of consequences. Feels great to be an total dick to everyone who is having even the slightest other opinion...and even getting rewarded for it, right? Pat yourself on the shoulder...come on do it...I know you want to. Good job!
And…

It could be pretty interesting if we had a more precise idea of what was asked. As mistreatment could cover way too many thing. 

In the real world, just 18 months of non-stop panic and anxiety over a virus has led to a massive surge in suicides

I’m vaxxed, in a city that has a 85% vax rate and requires proof of vax to go into a lot of indoor places, and gone to the movies about a half dozen times in the last month. Honestly, it hasn’t felt worrisome at all.

As far as I know, there haven’t been any documented cases of movie theater attendance leading to a major outbreak. Certainly, a bunch of people sitting in the same direction, mostly in silence, in a large, usually well-ventilated room, seems markedly less risky than activities that have caused documented outbreaks,…

The fomites thing was nonsense, so masks are certainly better than wiping and were the best we could do in unventilated indoor spaces pre-vaccines, but any protection from masks at this point is going to be a tiny fraction of what your kids get from being kids. I mask when I go out, but that’s because it’s an easily…

Largely agree, except that the Delta variant is a bitch, and my small kids aren’t vaccinated yet. COVID isn’t transmitted by fomites, so surfaces don’t matter. But masks definitely decrease the spread radius, so they’re more than hygiene theater if you have vulnerable people in your life IMO.

Giedi Prime is a toxic, industrialized world with very little sunlight.  It makes sense that the Harkonnens would be pale and sickly coming from this environment.

I’m of the view that once you’re fully vaccinated, masking is basically a rounding error we’re now carrying out as hygiene theater (of which the mania for “deep cleaning” earlier was a more extreme example). I do hope booster shots get permitted before this gets released here.

Where would we have a recent example of a quasi-normal person rendered grotesque by decadence and amorality, though?

I’m not sure how you get from “sallow, hairless, bloated fascists” to “creepy space mutant alien people” with out any intervening steps. IMO, that first description would cover quite a few scummy, but very human, ancient plutocrats that we have so many of here on earth.

Your update doesn’t address the Clickbait concern. The issue is that readers will click on the article expecting it’s about Tucker Carlson or Brett Baier (aka “The Fox News”) interviewing a VTuber. Saying, “It happened on Fox News” is the problem. That’s a specific name, a specific channel, and sets an expectation. Thi…

Ok, I occasionally watch news on my local Fox channel and I’ve never seen anything about KKK white supremacist stuff. What local news affiliates do you see bringing this stuff up?

Eh, this doesn’t seem that complicated, honestly. The complications just are about the PS4/PS5 split, the rest of that is just standard collectors edition bollocks that 99% of people know to ignore (or have enough money to dive in head first on).

Ivermectin is approved for use in humans. It treats parasitic infections, like it does in livestock. Those infections just aren’t super common in 21st century America, so the people who have convinced themselves that it’s some kind of miracle cure are having an easier time finding the horse stuff than the human stuff.…

I’m not sure the point of the article is to convince you that China’s gaming restrictions are 100% appropriate or make 100% sense.

Most people recover, though, and not through wealth. That’s part of the reason why so many people won’t take the vaccine. “Most people are fine. My risk isn’t that great. Some of the potential side effects are the same anyway.” (These are actual statements from folks I know who haven’t been vaccinated.)
