Just sign in with her account on your pc, invite her and then you can sign out. I had the same problem.

I’m curious, what other regimes are on that list?

Jesus Christ, that is the most disgusting fucking thread I’ve seen in a while, what the hell is happening.

I often think that I have put myself into an echo chamber and I need to seek more alternative thoughts, but when THIS is the alternative, I’m sorry, there’s no way I’m gonna listen to those fuckers not even ignoring, but cheering for genocidal actions because they deemed Palestinian people undeserving of even existing.

Such idiocy, companies (especially tech companies) artificially slow down the progress to increase their profits, not the other way around.

From the “Innovation” standpoint there’s no need to release a phone every year, but Apple does it, why? To innovate or make money? Why then every time a new iPhone comes out it’s barely distinguishable from the previous one, aside from a couple of features? iPhones are powerful enough to withstand 10+ years, so why not release a drastically new phone at least once in five years? Wouldn’t giving more time for your engineers to innovate bring even more innovation?

I think there’s a word for it… But for the life of me I can’t remember it. I guess it rhymes with gravitoelectromagnetism

• How can you prove that Russia is imperialist?
• Literally 2014

best. argument. ever.

Thank you, I’m really glad you liked my response)

To be honest, my claim was a bit hyperbolic, because essentially Cyberpunk as a genre is anti-capitalist, just CDPR doesn’t really want it to be.

It boils down to how you want to view this game and art in general, with the original intent of developers or without it, making assumptions based on the contents of the story. And I rarely can choose the latter.

The whole game tries to tell you that corporations are the main (and only) issue, Johnny Silverhand literally says: “I’ve declared war not because capitalism’s thorn in my side…”, implying that it’s not capitalism that he has problems with, but Corpos who: “Have long controlled our lives…”

But I don’t view anti-corporatism as a synonym to anti-capitalism, and neither does CDPR. That’s why they chose to paint a Marxist ideology as complete nonsense of some ai bot fortune teller (I’m talking about Bartmoss collective) and that’s why there’s not a word from Johnny criticising the system that let corporations become as powerful as they are today.

CDPR is the main reason, I presume.

Polish gamedev, who at the start of the war in Ukraine wrote: “Slava Ukraini” in their support letter.

Polish…

Slava Ukraini…

Yeah… Also not even a hint of anti-capitalist ideas in a CYBERPUNK GAME? Pretty fucked up.

I really hated the fact that there was no option to actually oppose those “people” from the government in a meaningful way, not just help another character.

What the fuck, we have an actual terrorist in our head that would lovely kill every single one of these fuckers if he had the chance, but we CAN’T??? And when we actually abandon them, it’s a mission fail and the whole DLC is inaccessible… Great

Fallout New Vegas lets you kill anyone you meet and story ACCOUNTS FOR IT. But in 2023 there’s not even a hint of that in a game that calls itself RPG.

CDPR really doesn’t want you killing bastards who actually are responsible for the horrible fucking state, not only of NC, but the entire country. Not even a hint of responsibility from their end, it’s just corporations.

“Pushed Multiracialism upon the Whites”, fucking hell, I at first read it like “multiculturalism”, but then I saw that it’s actually “multiracialism” and that killed me. At least, if it was multiculturalism, you could say that they hide their racism, but no, they actually fucking embrace it.

I would highly recommend watching DarkViperAU’s playlist about React Content: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAnJ4ZuTYaeGv4WIexP9C5LAuMEnMkG-Q

But if you want a shorter explanation, basically, it doesn’t matter if you have consent of the original creator. We don’t look for consent from workers when they sell their labour, whether they like it or not, it is exploitation.

Reaction content harms not only the original creator, but other creators too just because of how the YouTube algorithm works.

To make a 30 min video the original creator needs to spend a day, two, a week, a month to finish the project and in the end hope that his video will be picked up in algorithm and get a lot of views. Hasan needs to spend the duration of the original video plus his commentary to, essentially, make the exact same content. Why? Because information didn’t change. No matter how much commentary you add, the original video in its entirety is on Hasan’s channel.

How is this bad? Well, because how much less time the reactor needs to make a reaction, no matter what, the original creators on the platform lose because not the most exceptional creator wins the lottery of the algorithm, but the one who gets a lot of watch time constantly. No matter what, Hasan will be faster, more efficient in making videos because he just steals what another person did, talks about it a little, and then reuploads it on the YouTube channel.

So, after the person watches Hasan’s commentary on the stream or on YouTube and even if it so just happens that the original video will be recommended to him on the home page, will he click and watch it? He already saw it, what’s the point.

Yes, sometimes reaction gives a boost to the original creator, but it doesn’t matter. Because not only him is harmed in the process.

Because Hasan made a reaction and it was reuploaded to the YouTube channel, he now competes in the algorithm with thousands and thousands of other videos on the platform, original videos from original creators. Eventually, because Hasan is so popular and because he steals interesting videos and puts them on his channel, he will be recommended to other people.

How is this bad? Because a video with Hasan’s face showed up on the home page means that someone else’s video didn’t. Not necessarily the original one Hasan reacted to, but some other original content. But they lost this chance to show up on the home page because, to the algorithm, Hasan’s channel is much more attractive, this guy spams awesome content almost every day, he is no match to other people who spend time making their videos.

When reaction gives a lot of views to the original video, it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things because many thousands of people were harmed in the process.

Again, I highly recommend watching DarkViperAU’s playlist because I can’t explain it better than him, but if you want to know specifically about Hasan, here’s the link: https://youtu.be/va1zPshj5f0

First of all, what? LTT is a Nazi? That is a genuine question, because I haven’t followed him from the start, so I don’t know about his career and how he became popular.

Second of all, while it is good to have as many left-wing YouTubers/Twitch streamers as possible, people deserve much more than Hasan fucking Piker. If you imply what I think you’re implying, I don’t think just because he has left-wing political views we should forget about how fucking awful and ignorant he is.

There are a lot of great people on the platform, not compared to the fucking shit show of other content creators, but still, I’m glad that they’re here. And losing Hasan won’t make a difference to how popular our beliefs and views are in the world, because being represented by him only harms our image.

Yes, he might have inspired some people to read theory or watch more socialist content, but, in my opinion, he causes more harm than good.

I might have been okay if he used the money he is earning to fund big projects that could push socialist content to another level, but no! He is wasting it, the golden opportunity to spread his ideas through original and high quality videos, to instead spend it on his mansion and new cars.

I hate him.

Hasan doesn’t recognise that his main source of income, REACT CONTENT, is a form of exploitation. No original content or ideas and a very fucking high ego, I don’t like him.

Why the fuck is he popular, I have no clue.

Really? Never knew that, could you link where you found out?

I get you, I’m surrounded with this narrative and even have people who openly hang the OUN flag in their bedroom and showcase it in online classes… no one speaks out. Why? Because they were forces who “fought against both sides”, even though it’s proven that it’s not true, it doesn’t matter, because government propaganda supports this narrative (you can already guess where I live).

Don’t be upset, you are not alone. Don’t let them discourage you. We are with you, comrade!

One side is working to dismantle democracy. The other side is not.

WHAT DEMOCRACY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? The one that enables your country to fund a genocide across the globe DESPITE the outrage of it’s citizens and the… WHOLE WORLD?

You would enable Republicans to take away rights from LGBT people in America. You would enable abortion bans and enable even more of the genocide in Gaza.

How you can enable MORE genocide? People are finite, you either commit genocide, or you don’t. Or you think with your tiny fucking libbrain that SMALL GENOCIDE is totally okay?

But for now, you have to understand the reality of our two party system, and deal with it.

Yeah, sure, do not try to change anything, just deal with our shitty system because there’s no other option. Jesus fucking Christ…

edit: I wanna post this reply in their comment section, let’s see what happens :)

I cannot believe people are still using it, it’s mind boggling how stupid this argument is, I hate the person who invented it.

It’s so hard to talk with people who believe that this pile of dog shit is in fact a reasonable and serious argument. How through the years is it still relevant in the discussion, that was idiotic in the first place, is beyond me.

Так-так, це треба виправляти. Тому що Реддіт, де наших теж небагато, але більше ніж тут, це абсолютно неюзабельна хуйня. Дуже радий що навіть до України дійшли чутки про Леммі.

Кто то из Украины кроме меня знает про Лемми? Такое не каждый день увидишь :)
