I tuned in just as she was getting asked about Israel and dear god is it awful.

Trump coming in hot with saying she hates both Israel and "the Arabs", I can't deal with this.

I think that “it’s supposed to be shit” can be good when it comes from an artist that has the ability to do it well. No idea if this is the case for Raygun, but it’d be interesting to me if she had proven her chops elsewhere then decided to put on a horrible act.

Anyone calling out his mental decline in 2020 was accused of being a Russian bot and that whole discourse was silenced outside of places like this.

Do they realize that they're literally a parody of themselves?

The cyberpunk genre is pretty clearly a criticism of capitalism, but the main story in the game is basically a libertarians response to that, so they’re not totally off the mark.

There was probably some rationale where actually vaccinating people would have meant involving other departments or some shit and they didn’t want to risk blowing their op. Basically the evil is baked into the system, it’s not some cartoon villain. IMO this is so much worse than some evil cia director who’s goal it is to fuck up pakistan.

I've been fortunate enough to have seen my material conditions improve as I've entered my mid-thirties which has let me start a family and buy a home. I've also watched my incredibly talented and hard working friends/acquaintances/neighbours be ground into dust under the cruel rule of capitalism. I got lucky, they didn't, this has radicalized me far more than any naive idealism ever could.

Criticizing Hexbear with an ableist comment is chefs-kiss

I really don’t want to come across as a Musk apologist, but blasts like this from a ceo can be effective and making a difference. Imagine you’re an engineer who wants to produce a great piece of machinery to tight tolerances, but your boss is yelling at you to meet deadlines. Now you have something to point to when they’re saying to cut quality. The organization needs to be able to handle this kind of pushback, but it can work.

Criticizing this article isn’t the same as supporting Russia lol.
