  • Nahh, any species able to come close to interstellar travel would be able to observe us from afar. We can already take good data on other planets' atmospheres. It's not going to be too much longer (probably still past our lifetimes, but) before we can take spy satellite quality photos of the surface.

    Sure, some alien species might prefer to be more hands-on, but I'd hope they'd also recognize the destructive power humans have and stay away; It's a lot easier to break something than to invent it, and few things remain even recognizable after being hit by bigger military weapons. A lot of older movies/media relied on that fact to make the other thing seem so fantastically strong. Like the alien ship shrugging off a nuke in Independence Day.

  • I mean, hating on Nintendo is a good idea, but their games distinctly do not suck (at least most of them). They only suck in so far as you have to pay Nintendo in some form to legally acquire and play them.

  • communism and socialism are by design anti-authoritarian, so anyone claiming to be such while sucking the dick of any authoritarian is by definition userping the term for prpopaganda purposes. Basically, you're being lied to, and far too many people buy the slander.

  • I don't think you know what communism is supposed to be if you think it is as evil as capitalism... (note I said supposed to be, not what ever language an authoritarian decides to couch their takeover in)

  • Tankies aren't real leftists. They're morons who honor authority over freedom to the point they'll suck off authoritarians from history. Basically (very, very basically), they're the authoritarian "left"... as much as anyone who is rightly left honors undue authority...

  • No, boycotts are not a corporate death knell. No one is saying that. LITERALLY no one is saying their personal decision or reasoning is the cause of this news.

    EVERYONE ks pkinting at shitty things Ubisoft does, says, it caused them to not bjy it and likely is impacting others' decisions... then you come along going, "NUHUH NUHUH, Ubisoft isn't losing money because YOU didn't buy it!"

    My dude... we FUCKING KNOW THAT!! We're saying UBISOFT shot themselves in the foot with shitty behavior. This article is literally about the effects of people not buying en masse, and you're saying that the NEWS WE ARE READING is not possible...

    Just stop. Just stop. Boycotts most often do not work, but THIS IS NOT A BOYCOTT!! This is people explaining why they stopped giving Ubisoft money. Holy fuck, you are good at doubling down on a bad idea.
