Tumblr started celebrating all delusions, disabilities, etc. This is why they want to include wheelchairs, vitiligo, focus on "accessibility" etc. Transsexualism was just the one that "won" the most out of that circus.
Some other elements are in Chinese the concept of "cultivation" which is internal alchemy to train your mind and body to surpass human limits. As well as the pineal gland which creates melatonin and other hormones within the brain.
Some other interesting areas I would suggest looking into are "astral projection", near death experiences, and past life hypnosis. All of them have very interesting information, if you believe the data derived from them or not.
Yeah having a default character, even if they are basically a self-insert, is a good way to create a certain story. The only thing is that they need to appeal to a large amount of people for various reasons. These girlboss characters are just ugly, annoying, offputting, etc.
As Winston Churchill said: "Although in all these countries there are many non-Jews every whit as bad as the worst of the Jewish revolutionaries, the part played by the latter in proportion to their numbers in the population is astonishing."
Games used to be made by small teams of white and asian men, like groups of 5-10 people made some of the most acclaimed games of all time.
That will keep going with indie games, they just won't be quite as big or have as much attention on them. Which is a good thing.
I expect Nintendo to keep going, and the future of consoles is probably more like the Steamdeck and android/emulation handhelds.
As Thomas Jefferson has said "The tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
Even if this man himself wasn't a "tyrant" any more than any CEO was, it should still give them pause to understand the consequences and weight of their actions.
Yeah it's an amalgamation of many issues which have culminated in a "globalized modern society" specifically about Japan.
Leadership which seems to be covering up for something. Allowing tons of foreigners who don't speak the language, are aggressive, and get preferential treatment. And a violent outlashing against that.
I'm very interested to see where the story ends up going for sure.
Just in terms of tanking the birth rate I think Feminism has the biggest overall effect. If you check Britain, America, Japan, etc, all of the major declines in birthrate coincide with contraceptives, abortion, women in the workplace, etc.
If it was made like 5-10 years prior with way fewer diversity hires and affirmative action mandates then it could have been a really cool game. Unfortunately it just looks like a generic Ubisoft action game with an interesting aesthetic.
I would suggest using GG Deals which shows multiple storefronts. Not all of them are trustworthy though.
And for me I bought Guild Wars 1 which is actually cheapest on Steam at a historical low. I also picked up Deadly Premonition 2 and Alice Madness Returns which are also on historical lows.
You say that like colonial India is worse than it is today. I can assure you that if India was still ruled by Britain we would have much fewer issues with it today.
Is it barbaric to have a pet in your house and to treat them accordingly and properly? Or must all animals be totally and utterly segregated from humans.
They literally cannot tell the difference between fiction and reality. So if fiction is saying "There is an evil race who only wants death and destruction of all things good" then they think "Who is this talking about in real life?" because they are used to 100% of their media being allegory propaganda.
That's what "media literacy" is all about, being able to be a good little sheep and follow the clues that the director wants you take home. Rather than judging things on your own.
Apparently development for the game started in 2015, but was restarted in 2018. During development they had a lot of staff leave too, it's amazing that anybody actually stuck around to take responsibility for this trash fire. It's no surprise that they ended up with at tranny director for the game "Corinne Busche" and the final game definitely reflects that.
One that's worked pretty well for me is TorGuard. They have a built in adblocker so if you use it on mobile too it should block ads if you can't use a browser that would. I think you need a discount code to make it a really good value though.
