There are two reasons that common things might often be accused of immorality:

  1. Snowflakes these days are too sensitive
  2. We live in a fundamentally unethical society and have serious work to do to fix it

I believe in 2. Do you?

I still don't believe you. That article doesn't mention transphobia at all. It makes a point about sexism, and sexism isn't the same thing as transphobia. Your claim that there's an article saying cheese is transphobic is false. Also, I agree with the article. I love drinking breast milk, but only if she consents. And cows can't consent.

Steam is fast. Epic is slow. Epic is always asking me to 2FA to access my library of free games. Epic takes minutes to load their store homepage.

I don't believe you. Google doesn't show that article, and I followed your instructions to the letter. I think you're making stuff up.

CDPR aren't gamers' friends. Look at the transphobia controversy. Look at promising no crunch and then crunching anyway. CDPR are the "how do you do fellow kids" of the gaming industry. Everything they put out is greenwashed garbage.

No, killing is still wrong when it's pointless. You need to pay attention and take this discussion seriously. Killing that doesn't benefit murderers is better than killing that benefits murderers, because murder shouldn't be profitable.

Yes. I would rather the animals' deaths be entirely pointless and bring zero revenue to the animal killers.

People will see the high price, decide not to get a turkey, and make roast potatoes or something instead. Hopefully something vegan, like roast potatoes.

I like it better when the dead animal rots on the shelves. Because it means that the company that killed an animal made a financial loss, and next quarter they might decide to reduce their stock, since people aren't buying. If people buy the dead animal, then the animal killers make money and they keep killing animals. If it becomes more profitable to kill half the turkeys and sell at double the price, then I'm glad. That's half as many dead turkeys. That's a good thing. I hope the economy is going that way. And I hope people realise due to this economic trend that they don't actually need to eat meat every day.

The ACCC in australia sued Valve for their crappy refunds policy and forced them to implement an australian-style refund system. Everyone in the rest of the world enjoys it when a business treats them like australians (which is to say, like they have actual consumer rights), and assumed Valve was just nice. Epic, EA, Ubisoft and the rest treat them like americans, which they hate. So that's why people love Valve. Because Australia sued the pants off them.

It was cancelled because they were getting too close to the real truth: that Netflix is controlled by mole men from Mars!

 

Episode 4 did Obi-Wan Kenobi completely dirty. In the first three movies and The Clone Wars, we see that he's an honourable, compassionate, brave person. He killed Darth Vader and left him for dead. By all rights, he should have continued to fight for the rebellion instead of moving to a desert and being alone for 20 years.

You expect me to believe after being a general in the Clone Wars and defeating multiple Sith, Obi Wan proceeded to do absolutely nothing while the emperor oppressed everyone? As soon as he heard Darth Vader was still alive, he should have hopped on his ship and gone to kill Anakin! The version we see in A New Hope is an old loser hiding from his own mistakes in the desert.

Obi Wan is supposed to be determined, a warrior, someone who always accomplishes what he sets out to do. Not a coward! I grew up with the original trilogy, and these new movies completely ruined my childhood. Why did George Lucas feel the need to crap all over us Obi-Wan fans who loved his original three Star Wars movies? And all in the name of sUbVeRtInG eXpEcTaTiOnS


This is a joke about The Last Jedi.
