Oooh, good point, bamboozle’em into competitive Accelerationism!

NOBODY SAY ANYTHING!!! At this rate, all we’ll have to do is wait them out!

Honestly, that’s a great sentiment, and part of why I wanted to do this without any skill restrictions!

Gonna drop my in-game username through a private message, add me whenever you feel like it!

Oh, right the Alliance mechanic! I completely forgot that was a thing!

Sure, could be at least interesting to try! I swear, I have almost spent enough time in Warframe for it to be considered a second job, yet I still haven’t tried everything there is to try…

Now more than ever!

And a whooole lotta suck for the rest of humanity!

“A very attractive piece of paper.”

This’ll also extend far beyond American borders. We’re all in for some… interesting times…

Grifters, rejoice!

Additionally, check out the previous revolutions from around the world! Most of them didn’t happen on a basis of theory, but of people determined to change their condition.

Take Romania, for example. Sure, that’s an example of a revolution which ended up replacing one disaster with another, but even that holds a lesson for us: word-of-mouth is king, don’t give into desperation when figuring out the next attempt.

… revolution. That is the idea. We are talking about two completely different things, you expect run-down people to think logically and clearly about something as complex as an alternative*(edit) societal system while actively existing in some of the worst social contexts we’ve seen in decades, while we are talking about acting in such a manner as to free up the cognitive bandwidth necessary to determine what you demand.

It’s like any other toxic relationship, you can’t begin to heal until you’ve exited said relationship.

To clarify, by any means necessary. Start demanding, start opposing, start rallying. Spread the word, keep the reality of things alive in people’s awareness, because the natural instinct is to retreat and deny in order to protect oneself, but that’s exactly the trap the Right sets and then springs for a massive boost in support from downtrodden, desperate people.

Edit to add: the Right and Capitalism, because they both infiltrate and exist by solving problems they themselves create, thus garnering support through necessity.

I am becoming convinced that trying to establish a generally applicable age limit is the wrong way to go about these types of things, but instead we must focus on identifying the specific developmental markers which represent each phase and focus on those. We should teach parents to “read” their children’s progress and determine dynamically, based on both general data and individual empirical observations. Some children may not be ready for Social Media even at 16, while others who have more natural social inclinations may be hampered by a delayed introduction of these realities.

We’ve been treating the subject of children like they’re a bulk product, but they’re just as individually specific as any other human being. They just lack a fully defined brain structure and the contextualisation and understanding which come from life experience, but I doubt anyone could argue they don’t have a personality or cognitive uniqueness.

Note: I am not talking about the age of consent! That one should always be a thing!

Revolutionary action is 100% actionable. Always and forever.

That smoochable face holds the kind of happiness only attainable by overthrowing a corrupt society❤️

While I disagree with the wording, I share the sentiment.

American siblings, come to Yurp! Seriously! We like people over here!

Exactly, it’s like playing a video game. And no matter how immersive the game, reality always demands its cut.

Welcome to The Problem!

I believe our societal models are the reason. It’s not just that all people are self-absorbed and greedy, it’s that everything we have built for ourselves pushes us toward being just that, from start to finish.

We have slowly snubbed out true values, like a sense of justice (by this I mean fairness mostly, true Justice, not Electric Chair Jamboree), empathy, collaboration, soulfulness, all of the noble qualities of humanity, and have slowly replaced them with therapy shopping and a fixation with achievement in order to cover up that which is missing from within ourselves.

Then again, some are just… empty. Devoid of personal meaning, which is why they want to empty everyone around them in order to not be alone with that hole in their souls.

I’m here for this! I’m not sure if I’m too stoned, or not stoned enough to even be able to fully comprehend the question, but I’m 100% here for this!

I have 2.1k hours in Warframe and it seems that counter’s not gonna stop any time soon… Took a two-year break after some grind-heavy new content, returned to catch up with the updates and it’s all I’ve been playing for 5 days now.

Edit: on second thought, I don’t really know if the MMORPG classification fits Warframe, but I have no idea what else to call it, to be honest…

Not sure if I wish I could have experienced it, too, or to feel lucky I have no terms of comparison with better times, honestly… Seeing things one loves slowly turn to crap is always a painful affair…
