BioWare in general is dead for me by the end of Mass Effect 2 basically. ME3 wasn't horrible (aside from the ending) but I'm pretty sure the shift towards progressivism happened partway through ME2's development.
It's an utter shame because Mass Effect 1 and Dragon Age Origins are quite nice games.
"When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle." - Edmund Burke
It's good that at least some people in positions of power are trying to stand up against this. Of course I'm sure they will try their hardest to make an example of him, and we know that they will only double down on their mistakes. Since you cannot change their minds, you must stand your ground.
One big reason is because he gave all the news outlets money in exchange for good press towards him. Basically anybody watching TV is going to hear nothing about the bad and only the neutral or good. They might have inadvertently heard some of the scandals, but no details.
I hope Alberta and Quebec are able to separate at this rate. Because if this continues then all of Canada is heading down the progressive drain. There is a reason on 4chan that "leafs" are a laughing stock.
Canadians don't have the infrastructure like America to organize properly. It's all directed towards either Toronto or Vancouver. That's a reason big companies like telecoms are so horrible in Canada, if you live outside of those areas then you have very little potential to change things.
And it will never be enough. They could create an entire rail line just for LGBT and they would still find reasons to want more.
When a child is whining to get candy, if you give it to them then you just encourage them to whine more.
If only more American cities had mayors, governors, and police chiefs, that actually wanted to help their citizens instead of virtue signal or willingly make things worse for the sake of progressivism.
Until then, more events like this are bound to happen and will likely increase in frequency and severity.
If you want to actually improve things then you must be willing to admit when you are not perfect. If you want to play the victim hierarchy game, then all you need to do is shift the blame away from you and demand pity points.
He will be having another AMA on the conspiracy subreddit tomorrow. I expect that's one of the big subs to be targeted for mod replacement in the coming months.
The admitted patient zero was something like 16 miles from the biohazard site in Wuhan where they were researching very similar SARS viruses. I don't think that's a coincidence at all.
Of course the virus getting out was likely an accident, but as soon as China knew it was a problem they bought up PPE from abroad in massive numbers and tried to send everybody else misinformation. If it wasn't for Taiwan people would have been caught even more off guard.
Pronouns in bio is the easiest way to see how much somebody has been indoctrinated into progressivism. The fact that they consider it normal to tell people how others should refer to them when they're not even there is a sign they want to police everything you do.
I say "unknown allegations" because all I can see is that he made things uncomfortable for people (probably women who spoke up about it) and it's likely nothing big enough to go through any court system so they tried to oust him from the company instead.
Yeah I have noticed that other things like TDS which has the exact opposite definition of how it's actually used. It's pretty clear that the site is compromised, judging from what they have been choosing to feature as the word of the day.
I am convinced the flat earth stuff especially is a kind of false flag or cointelpro. It's a rabbit hole made to lure people who are suspicious of the status quo that ultimately leads nowhere and accomplishes nothing.
The biggest thing is that they treat all "redpills" the same. So it doesn't matter how tame and innocuous it is. This is what actually leads people down the path of "radicalization" when they realize what they're being told is evil is actually deep misinformation.
A guy named Chris Richmond invested in Snopes under his Ad company Proper Media, as well as other places like TV Tropes and Salon. They apparently have a dispute over if he owns 50% or 40% of Snopes.
they know what pushes your buttons, they know what makes you rage, they know what gets you worked up
No they don't. I've been on KiA/KiA2 for over 5 years. I have willingly exposed myself to how bad things are, and it has helped me better understand the world. Nothing I see on here makes me particularly angry.
On twitter I have already been on multiple block lists, the original GG one as well from having Airport follow me. It doesn't change much.
I look forward to Asha Logos upcoming social network if he's ever able to make an actual release of his concepts.
The sports analogy doesn't work properly, because in reality people like Mitt Romney and George Bush are on the same team as people like Obama and the Clintons. They're on the "progressive" team which comes in two flavours. In Canada we have 4 flavours of it, but they all accomplish much of the same things.
The "alt-right" is just a word for people who don't want to be a communist or a neo-con. The current "right" thinks that people should be ruled by money, and the current "left" thinks that money and property should be abolished. The so called third position is rejecting both of those choices of that false dichotomy.
If you want some sanity I suggest watching some videos by Asha Logos he has helped me quite a bit.
He probably thought he could get away with it. Nobody else was stopping them, especially not the police.
