Mods should be an improvement on a good game, not a fix on a bad one

There's also the "0.25 × 4" thing. ε is set to 0.25, and φ is set to 4. No nuance, no thought about how the economy actually works. Just make it so they can pretend they're thinking about it how demand will change.

Ah yes, because the eastern front never happened

I would honestly love to see something like Paul's letters, but addressed to the modern American church. Paul didn't mess around when the churches were acting up.

I'll go and add Slay the Spire and Dominaria to the list.

Mobile games do (mostly) suck though.

A. For controls, power, and screen resolution, mobile is just the worst. If a game on mobile tries to imitate a controller, it takes up a while lot of screen space. If touch is used more like a mouse, I've never seen a game that needs touch specifically.

B. Mobile is a better platform for the shitty pocket casino games. When it's impossible to leave the device at home, it's much easier for a game to develop an addiction. That's why mobile games like clash of clans get users paying upwards if $100,000.

Probably better wording is a minimum wage shouldn't be needed

It had just been long enough that I forgot about that shit. Now you had to go and remind me.

I return the favor.

THE GAME

A. Please tell me exactly where I said Biden was anything more than a mildly less shit alternative to Trump. And please tell me where I was saying support the genocide, rather than support one of the people who supports the genocide.

B. I have not been talking about what Biden should have done. I have only been talking about what voters should have done.

A. I hate to do this, but

The audience I wish to reach doesn't need their hand held as a child

Strawman, saying that this is about "leading people like they're children" not "clear and effective communication as equals"

B. What I'm talking about is proactively sharing your views, both to save time on questioning and to fill gaps that others would have never thought to ask about. Please, tell me why this isn't a needed part of discussion.

The point of teaching is sharing knowledge, not just poking holes in whatever argument you can (intentional hyperbole, not strawman)

The point of learning fallacies isn't so that you can just name them and feel like you've made a point.

strawman

Instead of just "strawman, therefore you're wrong" and leaving it at that, how about you explain what was incorrect in that statement. That way you become more understood, and everyone understands you more.

This isn't a courtroom debate. This isn't a debate you "win" or "lose". This is a debate where everyone should be trying to understand each other, so that everyone ends up better off by the end. This sort of debate is a cooperative thing, not competitive.

That's the question I answered.

Which would you rather support?

  • Genocide
  • Genocide + fascism + other bad shit (probably including genocide 2)

Pick one or give an alternative and a good reason that it will have some effect.

The lesser evil in this situation is genocide without all the other shit, and supporting that is therefore damage control
