I'm really annoyed at the idea that criticism is somehow invalid or useless, if it doesn't offer solutions. This is just not true, though if it were, it would make my job as a software engineer waay easier. IMO its just a manipulative trick to dismiss nontrivial, hard-to-address criticism.

I'm allowed to go see my mechanic saying my car is making weird noises, without providing him a solution. I'm allowed to say some piece of software is shit without providing guidance beyond "stop hiring cheap moron devs from India".

Similarly, anyone, including political commentators, is allowed to say that there is a problem without drawing up a full action plan to deal with it. It is supposed to be the Politicians' job.. We give them a problem, they offer us a solution, if we like it we vote for them. Thats how its supposed to work.

If everyone around you tells you $problem is getting serious, its not meant to blackpill you, its meant to make you support politicians who offer solutions.

its not anti-theatre sentiment, you moron. its anti-actor.

you really cant figure out why a society would not want to grant social cred to people whose job is to lie and pretend? you really cant figure out why a society would want to send the message that lying and pretending, is stuff biotrash does?

not you, op, "you" the dumbass redditor.

if they were capable of relating causes to consequences, they wouldn't be leftists.

what do you mean a walking environmental apocalypse? I take great pride in the fact that not even a whiff of air pollution from the factory ever reaches a biters' nest.

its just a matter of appropriate border placement.

call everyone against Trump alien collaborators

to be fair, if the goal was to soften Earth up in preparation for an alien invasion, the optimal course of action would look exactly like what the left has been doing.

because the situation is a mess, and declaring someone an enemy is easier than trying to figure shit out, especially when you're not the one who will have to do the fighting.

  • they're fundamentalists, and their extremists do oppose some western values, even the real western values, not just the woke ones.

  • they have reasons to be hostile to the west because of the west's support to Israel(and the resulting acts of hostility).

  • that support seems to result in a general strategy of keeping the Muslim world divided. often through active, violent and not really covert interference.

  • some Muslim extremists are expansionists, believing the world should submit to their way of life. the divide-and-conquer strategy often encourages these groups, as they tend to also fight other middle eastern powers.

  • if extremism happens to result in terror events in the west, it constitutes a good excuse to roll back those pesky constitutional barriers we have.

  • hence migration from those territories into the west is encouraged, in order to increase the chance of the terror event proc. Which would, as an added bonus, increase hostility towards muslims, and support for their current big enemy. creating a positive feedback loop into some of the previous points.

so yeah, building a big beautiful wall around the whole region, and letting yhem sort it out without further interference, would probably be to almost everyone's benefit.

that people who don't meet like 80% support for the EU shouldn't be allowed to join.

I lke this logic. please have the EU remove all the members that have less than 80% support.

i find it fuckig amazing that when concertgoers get gunned down in Paris, its all about hope not hate and candles and prayers. But when concertgoers get gunned down in Israel, suddenly, all the journos and "thought leaders", the same fucking people that were all peace&love suddenly go into full "Kill them all, let God sort them out" mode.

im under impression thay DEI consultancies started selling a "Bash-a-DEI-consultant-on-twitter" service.

His no rest for the wicked thing is very obvious DEI slop, from the artstyle, to the mandatory "took a shovel to the face" strong female characters, to the the "body type" selection in character creation. but here he is, posturing as a straight-shooting based salt of the earth anti-DEI crusader on twatter lol.

I'm sure it would work, if the residents are allowed to use the universal language that even thugs understand.

its not surprising. i looked into game engines for a game idea I had a year or so ago(I'm a professional dev in an unrelated field), and apart from the big guys like Unity and Unreal, its a hellscape of desolate husks of partially abandonned engine projects where it doesnt really take much to stand out.

I did go with Godot to try to push out a minimalist prototype, but, i'm not sure just how much time I saved vs if I just had chosen to drudge though opengl, and then real life got in the way anyway. When I get back into it, i guess Ill go for the plan B anyway.Maybe Ill get an llm to help with the metric fuckton of boilerplate involved, or something...

I considered getting it, but the art style was raising some red flags, which made me chose to wait and see instead. seems like my slop detector was on point.
