Trump could have just vetoed the spending bill when it came to his desk. He didn't need the Democrats to bow he just wanted to see if they would.

Its still a shame that I will never recommend this place to anyone I know until the community changes here.

Its a bit chicken and the egg cause we likely need one for the other. But with the users proclivity for bans, and blocks you end up with a user base even smaller and discussion that more feels like a battle to be right most of the time because intellectual superiority is looked up to rather than conversation.

I still think a community of people competing to be the most right in every comment section does not lead to actual community and doesn't even help provide facts or info to most communities when there are not many niches to which people in here can participate in. Objective facts work best not in fandoms but in crafts. Like what glue doesn't melt Styrofoam when doing prop building not which show or game is best.

I may be alone in this but I yearn for "the normies".

You have the worst apologies for being a jerk. In fact you still haven't.

This is a conversation about the genre. Where else to talk about the genre. It may not have been the conversation you wanted on it and didn't like that I didn't enjoy it your way and then made a bunch of incorrect statements on my point and then on putting words in my mouth.

Oh good though I swayed you into barely conceding and that you still think you can control other people into not having conversations you don't like about a topic you like by being rude about them not enjoying it your way.

Sorry I'm not you.

Hey also share a birthday. Hope you managed to get cake instead of Pie. Lord knows I'm tired of it.

Its also the birthday and death day of Akira Yoshizawa, the grandmaster of Origami who rose the craft to an art form.

Also if you manage to die on the day of your birth by natural causes at 94 I think you deserve extra credit.

The art is honored for his incredible work standardizing it, he really was a treasure

So you came into a thread talking about the classification of a genre with admittedly the sole purpose of making condescending jabs at people who enjoy said genre,

I never claimed you were attacking anything but the genre

Seriously dude?

Also who cares about Lemmy downvotes. I saw someone downvote a question and upvote an absolutely false answer. People are called lemmings here. And you are most of the downvotes between you and me as I am yours for not adding to a conversation in good faith.

No you immediately took criticism of a genre as a personal attack because of your own issues. You take it as poor communication because of your own interpretation and the pushback I am giving for your misunderstanding of my point.

I have been consistent with saying it's a short term fun game for me and that I find other games to be more rewarding.

Don't blame others for being offended by other peoples opinions. I added to the conversation with an offer of classification of passive horde survivor and an explanation of how I got there.
I'm even having a pleasant conversation about that right next to yours where you have been antagonistic.

I don't even expect anything from you other than to stop insisting I care if you have fun playing a game I only mildly enjoy.

No. Pretty much exactly not that and I see you also suffer the issue.

None of that is correct. And directly against what I just said.

And I contributed a name.

Nice, yeah I get it. I keep struggling to play my much slower games when it's that late part of night and have decided to beat all my Roguelikes I have, but I can't help but admit I'd rather be playing Katamari Damacy.
Now that's how I destress. But that's very passive.

Oh sure. It's a pointed jab at asking if people have tried games I enjoy while being a little condescending of a genre I find to be best at filling short moments.

It just doesn't match that comic cause that's not demanding people stop enjoying something they like.

If people can't separate criticism of a genre as not criticism of them I can't help them either.

As if it was ever a discussion with you.

No I didn't request anyone else to stop having fun I am just pointing out my interpretation of the games and the name I use for them.

Why does my opinion on it make you think that I am demanding you stop playing unless you care what others think about your own free time?
I just like it differently and am voicing that. Your take as an attack means you feel a need to defend it preemptively, and over assume I care about you playing it.

From the very start, you twist and contort my (and, therefore, every other commenter on this post) opinion.

No this is a conversation between us on your words. You insist that you have the backing of everyone when that is an absolute that is disproven by my very nature of being here and disagreeing. Don't use a bias to cover your own logic.

say "occasional use" at most. That is a week between doses, minimum. This is safe, and this is a matter of fact.

You didn't specify what occasional is and it is not a matter of fact.

making yourself a big fat target by comparing chemicals to living organisms

You insist I am a target instead of a person conversing. It's rude. And by comparing medical procedures. A point you insist on making.

I say three times a month at most.

You have just said that now. Not previously when given a chance to specify. You act indignant while ignoring that you don't specify because you feel safe in your generalized statements that everyone will agree with you. Well I don't on all that you said and pushed back and here you are doing this show as if you have always been right and said everything correctly.

There is no correct and you can try to editorialize this conversation but it will not work as you can not edit me so easily. This tactic of breaking down everything to prove you are right about every point is awful and a rather bad tactic for talking to people. You very specifically are putting words in my mouth by trying to edit each thing I say from your perspective alone.

I don't think you realize, but you are absolutely the one with a bad tactic and a rude know-it-all attitude here as this continues on and on with you. You can defend yourself all you want but it doesn't yet change that you misunderstand and insist your correctness before any conversation has happened.

You easily make others the villain and some target for you to look down and squash from your place of (let me check) upvotes. Congrats. I truly don't care about it and it does not work to make your point for you. You are still the unreasonable person here immediately jumping to tactics that are best seen by those that want to be right rather be actually informed.

Yeah you grow weary cause you don't know how to talk to people.
This is a terrible response.

I have not implied otherwise by the way I just disagree on the methods and specifics which you refuse to accept. You twist my meaning the same way you insist I twist yours by responding to your actual words instead of your ego. Referring to your upvotes proves you take the wrong opionions and are swayed by whatever gives you confirmation.

It is by your actions that you are responding this way. And insiting that I agree with you and no other option. You can also chose to try a different tactic at any point. Do not blame me for yourself and how you continue to respond.

Oh for sure. I actually discovered vampire survivors after finding its mobile clones and liked them all but for 20 minutes at a time.

Once I tried to play the OG I just couldn't help but think of it as a passive game though and it lost my interest for long term play sessions. I think it's an import point that they are passive.

Oh man... Are we already in WW3?
I mean I guess it won't be called that unless it really kicks off but this is feeling again like one of those horrible slow preludes that gets roped into the syllabus.

It sure does feel like that sometimes. Maybe to much emphasis on childhood being never over and western society viewing childhood as a period free of consequences, as if that could ever be true. As if they front load heaven for afluent people and suggest it could be permanent if only they believe in it and pay up.

But unfortunately they aren't stupid. Self unaware people can be shockingly smart and think themselves in the right crowd through brazenly dumb logic.

The new one in my current city is also driving without a license plats to not get charged at the tolls and being able to avoid dashcams in accidents...

Saying it out loud it's more like the rules don't matter because of a lack of enforcement from digital systems being easily exploited.

This is very much an introverted take that only sounds like utopia to the main audience on a website like this.
Not that it didn't have upsides I just would heavily push back on calling any part of Covid or its outcome so far close to utopia.

Yeah this feels exactly how the cycle keeps on continuing back and forth. And while the start may have been legitimate criticism to awful behaviour we have a society fed by social media saying there is no such thing, just idiots who disagree.
So, round and round we go. Pushing on the next insult to finally show those idiots we won't take it anymore and now everyone is upset with everyone.

It takes more effort than I think anyone has the energy to, to be nice when you are hurting and angry. Especially when it's easy to see and feel like they don't deserve the energy.
