That's something that really hit me when seeing women talk to themselves online about this and when you take into account what western women really hate you realise it's all just a cry for attention that shouldn't be given in to because attention seeking women are fucking psychos.
. Western women hate foreign women because it takes men out of the dating pool who would otherwise be giving them attention, they hilariously go full racist because they feel like 'their' men are getting stolen even though they would never date them
. Western women hate being ignored so they're more likely to chase a man than if they were being chased
. Western women hate video games because it steals attention away from them, therefore video games bad
. Western women hate other hobbies not just video games that steal attention away from them, therefore other hobbies also bad
. Western women constantly pull shit at the gym while men are trying to focus on their workout because they want men to stare at them and simultaneously get extra sympathy points online for being 'sexually harassed' which translates to double the attention they would otherwise receive
. Western women are so desperate for male attention they're now trolling home depot and conspiring to steal married men away who they consider high value
Edit: . I didn't even go into autistic detail yet about how much social status and class factors into western women's dating habits which is something they want so that they can shock, get attention with and show off to their friends
I remember one day one of our Magic crew got a girlfriend who came with us to the store once. He ended up buying a card for around $100 bucks or so for his commander deck and she said, "I don't get it, it's just a piece of cardboard."
Now I, back when I thought women were genuine and rational, tried to explain to her that this guy had loads of disposable income and that Magic is a "buy once cry once" hobby. I also said to her it's kinda like buying an expensive blouse or whatever -- it's not that you need it, it's that you want it, and everyone spends their money on something.
She looked at me like I just took a shit on her carpet. "It's cardboard" she said.
Cue like 6 months later, they broke up and whenever we get the chance to play Magic these days, he still plays with that card. This happened like 10 years ago and that card is $900 now. (https://starcitygames.com/gaeas-cradle-sgl-mtg-usg-321-enn/)
I guarantee if you would have asked her what the difference between a $30 purse from Walmart and a $3,000 designer purse is, she would have spent an hour defending the designer one.
Covid and inflation absolutely fucked the Magic community. Commander was ostensibly the casual deckbuilding format and now it's thousands+ for a "proper" deck. One of the many reasons I stopped collecting.
That was by design. EDH was fun community homebrew rules. The moment it got made "official," the writing was on the wall. It was going to eventually be the same shit show as everything else WotC/Hasbro touches. Not to say that covid and inflation didn't play a part.
Fuck that was a good investment. I still wish I had picked one up back before it cleared the $200 mark but couldn't justify the cost at the time since I just wanted it for a really dumb squirrel deck idea.
Women will always hate anything men spend time, money, or attention on that does not benefit women.

When she asks for a diamond ring instead of a sensible band of gold he should tell her "It's just a rock".
Urza's Saga was such a fucking cheesehat set.
