So, it could be any of the 3/4ths of sitting politicians

You mean you didnt stop buying apple products? Lots of people, myself included, avoid slave labor brands.

(And also most jobs and housing do require a phone, and its better to buy a used phone second hand than a brand new phone every time. Utility devices are far more nuanced and intricate about "ethical" choices than a video game.)

E: also, this thread specifically is about death of the author, which I dont think anyone would apply to iphones at any point regradless

I dunno what fantasy world youre living in, but here in reality you get downsized and laid off regardless of how good your games do.

Unless youve missed the game trends for the past 4 months?

Im having a hard time believing you dont remember your own point

But I dont really have time for you to sober up, so unless you can get your shit together Im probably bored of babysitting you

You cannot be this stupid

Its literally the post, stop eating glue and read the title my guy

Chopping up the delusion doesnt make you sound less delusional.

Tbh youre starting to sound worse

...... Hey, no joke. Are you high right now? You only made one point. Its the topic of the entire post. This isnt hard.

Did you forget what the post was about? Click up.

Do you not know your own point? That tracks, honestly

How dumb are you dude, you only had a single point

Then you can scroll the thread or your own account just fine. If you cannot grok that your point is delusional, there is nothing I can say to help you

Do you want me to copy and paste your comments? Lile what the fuck do you mean, did you forget this whole thread? Baby do too much meth this morning? What the fuck are you talking about

It didnt make trans people look bad, because trans people arent a hive mind.

If this made trans people look bad to you, you are just a bigot looking for an excuse. You already hated them, this did not magically change anything

You have to be joking, how do you not know what we have been talking about

...... Youre joking right? Are you so clueless that you cant even follow the conversation youre 50% of?

Jesus, that wasnt even the part I was calling you delusional for

Lol youre delusional dude

If some completely anonymous random strangers doxxing people you dont know made you hate trans folk as a concept, it had literally nothing to do with the doxxing and you know it.

What a stupid thing to say. Invest in therapy asap.

What exactly do you think detriment to sales means dude

The phrase "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" does not mean "therefore, death of the author always exists for all art the second it is made."

For starters, you will not die if you dont experience all art made. Its not food. Its not shelter. You will be okay if you dont watch some movies, dont read some books, and dont play some games. I promise.

But, more specifically, death of the author means to separate an author and their life from the work they create. If your purchase directly funds the author? You didnt separate the author from the work.

Death of the author is when you accept and understand that reading a story written by a shitheel from the 18th century is not supporting their shitheel opinions. That you can study the work and its influence on culture without that study or consumption being explicit or implicit support of the creators thoughts and opinions.

But when you pay an author for their work, you have supported the author. Period, thats what the word means.

Now you can fibble or quibble about morality of putting money into someones pocket all you like, but if the author is literally benefiting from your purchase, they are not dead. There has been no death of author.
