"Draenor and Legion Pathfinders will now be purchasable directly from flying trainers."
I said I'd never do those attunements and I meant it.

Yes.
If I set out to solve a problem, I want it fucking solved. I don't go in for "symbolic gestures" and "moral victories".
If a lose nail in the floorboards stubs my toe, I don't avoid the nail. I get a hammer.
The tradeoff to this is that I only fight battles where there is a clear course of action, and where it is certain that if I will a thing, it will be so. Death by a thousand cuts is not victory to me.
Who said anything about symbolic gestures?
I'm just surprised that anyone can actually enjoy a game/company that actively hates them.
You've been demoralized and compromised. It's not normal to subject yourself to this shit.
Their fight is their fight, not mine.
Why should I lift a finger for people who aren't willing to kill their oppressors for their freedom?
Once again, who here said anything about doing something for other people?
Consuming a product that is specifically designed to cause you psychological/spiritual suffering, is bad for YOU.
Ah. So that's your angle.
Okay, let's explore that avenue.
Why do I... play video games?
Well, because, I'm single and they're an enjoyable and comparatively inexpensive way of passing time between now and when I die.
I am in a holding pattern you see. In a matter of a few years my house will be paid off, whereupon I will start saving for a different, better house on a lake where I can get a boat. And then instead of sitting at a computer listening to podcasts while playing video games while waiting to die, I'll sit on a boat listening to podcasts while trolling for fish while waiting to die.
Now, if you want me to do something more productive with my life than that... you're gonna have to show me a woman who isn't fat, ugly, conceited, crazy, in massive debt, or a single mother. If the world can't manage that, then, well, fuck the world, let it all burn.
You use the word demoralization because you're channeling Yuri Bezmenov, but I'll tell ya what:
I was a kid when the cold war was still a thing, and if the choice were mine we'd have had WW3 thirty years ago.
