2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

As an Aussie who has always enjoyed playing (and making) games, I've had free healthcare all my life and have only worked my arse off.. Like most people I know.
*Used to get free healthcare.
Dunno how it is where you are, but bulk billing GPs just don't exist anymore in SA.
It's getting harder but they are there. But hey, if I break my leg and go to ER at a public hospital, even though I have to wait a shit load of hours, I won't pay anything when I walk out.
Just in case you forgot, getting rid of video games is part of Project 2025. Republicans have had a vendetta against them since Mortal Kombat came out in the arcades back in the 90s. And in some ways they have been against them since their very inception with Pong and Tetris.
Sounds about right.
Project 2025: Fuck literally everything good in this world. Work to death and be forced to praise Jesus.
Because they encourage creativity and independent thought.
I'll note that they loved the propaganda and mental training that America's Army provided.
Could you give a reference? I don't doubt what you're saying, I just think it would be helpful for people to see it.
Is this the one who gets his son to monitor whether he's masturbating or not? Or is that some other guy?
or pretending that conversion therapy cured them, and addicted to possibly porn.
Through what fucking program? Magic?
Meanwhile the unemployment rate continues to be troublingly low, begging the question, "If not for immigration, who's going to fill the new fancy All-American manufacturing industries?"
Congress need to fix big and large companies from firing people in masses every quarter and not hire people.
As a young man, I'm just waiting for the AGI breakthrough, so it either fixes the fucking government, or wipes us out. Win-win.
Mike, just cause you're a shit parent who can't talk to his kid, doesn't mean you gotta make the rest of us suffer.
Sometimes the only way to win is not to play.
But also Johnson is stupid.
Cool. Until there is no more profit and no more billionaires, there should be no labor and free healthcare.
But then aren't people who do get jobs so they can have healtcare mooching off free healthcare?
Working isn't worth doing.
They are finally going after the most oppressed minority!
So time to remove the free healthcare benefits from this congress member
Lmao.
What a joke.
Yeah you don't need to buy food, only healthcare.
Everyone who lives here plays video games all day and our healthcare isn't even completely free, the burden is just shared by nationalization. Video games are such a menace to society!
Lol. I have free healthcare and I played videogames every fucking chance I get because it makes me happy, but it's pretty rare since I worked 278 hours in May.
