What are some games that "spin" failure states?

  • Yet often you have to repeat the mission, and often said missions have concrete failing states (don't be spotted, don't miss the car, don't let x die) and less opportunity for branching from a failure.

  • You're probably right, I just watered down my rant to make it sound less like 5G chips in vaccines gang.

  • Yes, please see the links below, however as a brief summary:

    Bill and Melinda Gates foundation do two things: Invest in public issues and lobby governments to spend in said issues, in exchange for further donations and investments.

    However, in parallel, Bill Gates also invests in specific companies that will be targeted as main providers for those activities.
    One could consider that he's investing in companies that help out (e.g., vaccination) and that's not a bad thing. The problem is that he is bennefiting from lobbying in pro of the companies he has invested on.

    We could also agree that even if he's bullying governments and institutions into giving him more money through those companies, at the end it is a positive boost (like the example you mention).

    That's not the case with Common Core: Diane Ravitch put it better than I could here, but basically Bill Gates' is forcing public schools into programs that do not work, alienate teachers and students, have almost bankrupt public education and required purchasing materials from companies he controlled.

    Furthermore, for each time Common Core failed, he doubled down, and for each consecutive failure he decided that a new drastic measure will solve the issue, even though the education community was saying otherwise.

    The issue with these foundations is that rich people believe they have the solution to all the problems: not money but their intellect, and that they know more than everyone combined on that profession.

    This is in parallel what is been happening with carbon capture. This foundation is also lobbying for a technology that has been heavily critisized as a pipedream; however, surprise surprise, Bill Gates do have large investments in carbon capture companies (e.g. Heirloom).

    Again, I do not think he's evil or is going to inject me with pentium II mmx now; I just think he feels smarter than everyone else and is misguiding governments to invest in failed practices despite what the actual professionals are saying.

  • It's a neat trick: You give your donations to a foundation where you also put your family members, and use that foundation to lobby for the stuff that you're investing in.

    That's at least mostly what Gates is doing.

    • Oh my goodness, what an idea! Why didn't I think of that?

  • what if it's not really a war, not that formal just a casual occasion like it's just a holiday that somehow became a special military operation

  • "There was an emergency request from government authorities to activate maritime support all the way to Normandie.

    The obvious intent being to invade most of Nazi Europe.

    If I had agreed to their request, then my company would be explicitly complicit in a major act of war and conflict escalation."
