"How did it come to this?"
As was once said by King Theoden. I remember seeing those movies when I was a kid,17 or 18 I think. A simpler time, I loved going to movies. My pops would take my brothers and I almost every time my mother and sister were on the warpath from Aunt Flo visiting. Kek, can't even make that joke anymore. I sit here and think of simpler times and how much I fucked up.
When gamergate first started I didn't give a shit. Like "who fucking cares about some girl getting her ass censored?", I said freshly out of college (well plus a year moving back in with my parent from the collapse and Obama). Little did I know how slowly it starts.
I used to laugh at my dad despite him probably being my best friend, mentor, and guide now. He would bring up Hannity or Bill O'Reilly talking about the culture war. Even my mother back in the 90s warned me how the gay agenda was a real thing and once the slippery slope starts you can't stop it. Laughed at her too.
I'm 35 now. Got my daughters from their Baptist school since that's where we decided to send them during the Sweet and Sour Sickness. My wife, the most oblivious person in the world (with such great blonde classics as "its so sad that Ray Charles died before he got to see his movie"), even is saying "hey, these people are fucking lying" at the news.
In the past 10 years I don't think I have changed much. But a few months ago I saw a post from a friend of a friend saying "(username) is a fucking fash, i wish he would have died back when he was sick". This hit me for some reason even though I haven't spoken to said person in 5 years. Wasn't even close to begin with. At times I want to go all "SIR" on them. "You guys wanna see a fascist, I'll show you a fucking fascist".
That last part wasn't a joke. I don't trust anything I read anymore. I'm scared for my daughter's future. My wife's future. I can take care of myself, that has never been a problem, but when you have a family it just complicates things. I see this dystopian nightmare unfolding right before my eyes with the passport and the news lying to us constantly to get what they want. I feel lost. This is accelerating at such a pace with the news changing their opinions on the fly with the rona even average dumbasses see it. Like the hockey stick graph, where it spikes so large you can't ignore it. Still, the majority are swayed by fear.
Of course it all comes back to the culture war. I feel it's lost. Between the election upset and the rona it was the perfect storm for the communist left to go wild. Trannies teaching our children. Trannies and fags in their cartoons. Equity above all else. If you see something, say something.
I digress. This is why I don't like KiA1. This is so much more than just video games. Their sole focus on that will be their downfall. You know how "the political is personal" changed into "the personal is political" by the prog left? Your ENTIRE BEING is political to them. Everything you think, say, do, buy, support.
The fact that you all are here and the other dot win communities gives me hope. At least I feel like I'm not the only looking at his zombie friends, rehearsing talking points and consooming Fortnite, screaming "DO YOU NOT SEE SOMETHING IS WRONG?".
Also think about all the wealth that was further consolidated into the hands of a select few.
I don't like to punish economic success, but few Billionaires reach their level of wealth without at least some degree of government cronyism.
And more than a few of those same people are pushing for mandates of misery on the general populace, and are doing worrying things with their wealth, like buying up prime farm land.
Bezos is the prime example. His Washington Post pushed for lockdowns hard, and lo and behold, Amazon made record profits last year. Doesnt take a genius to see the correlation there.
