I didn’t know this was something I agreed to when I bought my console.

Now to figure out if I can block this.

Or a Wrestling Faction from the late 90’s

Got to be honest, this is the first I’ve even heard of this game.

I didn’t know I accused boomers, or older people specifically, of anything. Did I do that? Or am I misunderstanding what you mean?

If you didn’t know this, you haven’t been paying attention. Right wing voices have gone hard at the young male demographic for years now. They’ve targeted kids in online games and social media, and groomed them for years all with the goal of shaping their world view and by extension, their politics. Lonely young guys looking at people who present themselves as successful, rich, and rolling in women, not giving a fuck about anyone but themselves, telling young boys that they just need to be more sexist and racist and that’ll get them laid and make them feel fulfilled. Telling them that the world is wrong and they’re not. It’s been extremely successful, and all wide out in the open. That’s why voices like Andrew Tate made it into the public zeitgeist.

Frankly, it’s an absolute failing on all of the left for being completely unable or unwilling to see this or show an alternative world view. Too often, when I hear people talk about young white men’s issues, I get crocodile tears from everyone who can’t separate them from actual right wing provocateurs.

Got a non-paywall version?

The unflattering angle and double chin really hit home.

That photo reeks of fetal alcohol syndrome

Here’s hoping this fuckin guy loses his right to vote.

You think you’re sick of it? Try living here where the ads never stop.

So what the fuck do we need CBS for again?

The board and the executives are the problem, so if they’re the ones ordering the investigation, this is pointless.

This is probably why they pumped the brakes so hard on Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The state they released Star Wars Outlaws in was absolutely abysmal. Something tells me they figured if they did the same thing with assassin’s Creed shadows, they were fucked. They’re also now releasing that one day one on steam. I really get the distinct feeling that if assassin’s Creed’s shadows doesn’t sell for Ubisoft, they’re in serious trouble.

These white, Republican congressmen are wild. Cocaine fueled bingers, sex trafficking, Christofascism. Rape and disease. Nastiest leaders in the free world. Cults, wannabe gangsters. But damn if they don’t feel emboldened now, attacking anyone they can.

Thanks for calling that out. We’ve home grown Nazi’s for a long while now, we didn’t just inherit them after WW2

We’re talking about what can be proven, and the DoJ seems to think they can prove Visa drove the market this way. You’re talking about a hypothetical market where Visa didn’t do what they did, which is irrelevant.

This wasn’t a natural push to a monopoly though. Visa used their size and leverage to force end users to use their debit network and squeeze out the competition. They’d charge higher fees on companies who didn’t use their services. So I disagree, this isn’t a natural monopoly.

If they fix some of the wonky character animations during cut scenes, it might be worth it for that alone.

I mean, I like to think Sony made it perfectly clear this time around. There’s really no excuse this time. People were warning other people, Sony had it on the system requirements sheet, and Steam had it listed as soon as the page went up. So if you still picked up the game and then decided to removed about the PlayStation Network requirement because you didn’t know, that’s on you.

Flipside, if you bought the game just to removed about the PlayStation network requirement, knowing full well this would be a requirement, you’re way more privileged than me. When I don’t like how someone does something, I typically don’t give them money unless I don’t have a choice.

He’s the legal equivalent of a toddler saying “I’m not touching you” while constantly putting his hands close to you.
