I’ve never met anyone who played online on the PS2 though, it just wasn’t very popular to go online back then.
I did.
Played SOCOM, and Tony Hawk...
...For like 10 minutes.
It was almost all garbage.
The ONLY PS2 game I ever really played online along with my friends at the time was Metal Gear Solid 3 : Substance's online mode.
But really... the PC was the best place for "online" until the late 2000s with the advent of the Xbox 360 and, a little later, the PS3.
Bullshit. That's what neo-liberals and squawking millionaire pundits do. Leftists believe in solidarity. It's why people like Sanders resonated so much with groups of voters that Fox thought its town hall would support Republicans without question.
Leftists understand that poverty and desperation act as fertile ground for demagogues to jump in and offer up scapegoats to those who neo-liberal and Republican policies alike have harmed.
Leftists know that if you provide the actual reasons as to why inequality occurs, those who might otherwise vote for fascists can be turned to vote for true left-leaning figures.
Those of us who've been on the internet since the mid-90s remember how Digg fucked up. Apparently none of those people who remember what happened last time are around at the top of Reddit anymore.
Yeah they were making fun of it... Hence the square wheels.
