That the way the American government under Trump is behaving isn’t just out of blind hatred for Europe.

If you honestly believe that, you need to step back from social media and re assess what you’ve been reading.

Pretty sure he says that to their face also.

And how are the employees expected to trust that a rowdy mob outside doesn’t have someone packing a few moltovs? It’s something that is actually happening right now. Use your damn brains and stop being pawns. If you really care so much about the movement then put a little more effort into being much more effective without terrorizing random strangers.

Literal terrorism

I just think it’s funny how being kind to front line workers, because they aren’t the people being assholes, is one of the most common memes on social media. Now though, because people are caught up in the hype, they’ve completely forgotten their own ideals and lash out at those they have previously declared to be their friends.

This is the kind of behaviour that leads to religion, because having an actual hard coded set of rules gives the victim the ability to point to something physical to say “hey, we’re supposed to be your friends jackasses” when these sorts of things happen.

That’ll show those minimum wage slaves.

I mean, I’ve been using literally the exact same belt for years. If it wears out and I buy a different belt then I’ll have effectively “switched” to that style.

How does followers of a religion equal to respect

Christianity isn’t like Islam where you’re disowned (and often murdered) for the crime of leaving. People who were born into a Christian family but don’t respect the religion can simply choose not to follow it anymore (with the notable exception of a few cults, but they hardly make up the whole). And once again, even many non-believers still have respect for the message of love and peace which Jesus championed.

I’d be working much harder if it wasn’t illegal to do the things I actually want to do with my life, like building my own shelters.

We’re talking about how many people respect the Bible, not whether or not it’s legitimate.

The Bible is also not seen in a positive light in 2025

I’m sorry, but social media does not give you an accurate picture of the real world.

It is by more people than it isn’t. By a lot.

Even many non Christians still appreciate it’s teachings.

Mobs in the bible weren’t exactly seen in a positive light.

I think your argument relates closely to something I’ve noticed happening over and over with more than just game developers. Far too often I see people expressing frustration that the Internet doesn’t give them more accurate information about the real world. Way too many people, apparently including many of the richest and most powerful people alive, have come to see the Internet as a magical machine that will do anything they want it to do… if only people would use it differently! Like, they legitimately seem to expect the entire population to post their entire lives online, unfiltered, so they can be used as automatons by people they’ve never even met.

You know, at some point you’re going to actually have to engage with people honestly, if you actually want to see a good tomorrow.

Immediately followed by the Chinese demographic collapse. It’s gonna be a SHORT century.

Mass immigration is literally insane, and betrays a fundamental lack of understanding about what societies actually require in order to function. I’m strongly suspicious these policies are being pushed by technocrats who want computers to take over managing social interactions, and so they need to ruin the natural state of real world public spaces so people have nowhere else to go.

Yea, both Democrats and Republicans have a pretty solid history of voting in lock step on matters of giving themselves more power.
