cricket97,

it would be cool if you could just be honest. “Yes we are shaming him and we don’t care” instead of pretending like you are exposing some important truth. makes you a coward

cricket97,

Do you consider masterbation sex? because uhh it isn’t

cricket97,

“No one should make content that I don’t personally approve of” is one that I would categorize as worthy of criticism.

Who said no one can make content if it has sex in it? People are just saying they don’t like it and everyone is sperging out about how children should see sexual content because they also see violence.

cricket97,

Having sex is probably something you will do in your life, mass murder is not.

I would say this exactly why one topic is more sensitive than the other. No one goes around killing aliens with ray guns, so there really isn’t much to emulate there. Whereas sex appeals to our biology and on young impressionable children, it could have significant impact on them to be continuously exposed to it through media.

cricket97,

Continuous exposure to sexual content throughout childhood can have significant effect on their sexuality later in life. I don’t think the same thing is true for shooting games.

cricket97,

No, I just don’t want needless sex in my games. I don’t care to make it illegal or anything but I’m speaking out that I do not enjoy sexuality in video games and think if that’s something people desire, they can find that sort of content elsewhere.

cricket97,

Sure but what does that have to do with what I said?

cricket97,

Sex is so much different than violence. Sexuality is something is developed over the life of a person and can be heavily influenced by early exposure. Where violence isn’t spurred on by video games (unless you are one of the boomers complaining that video games cause violence) because shooting people isn’t a part of normal life.

cricket97,

So, your opinion is that any and all violent content is never a concern, and is appropriate for any age, even small children?

“So YoUr OpInIoN iS” shut up lol. I didn’t say that. I just said violence is much different than sexuality, and thats reflective of how society treats the two topics in media.

cricket97,

Not to the same degree.

Cigarette-style climate warnings on food could cut meat consumption, study suggests (www.theguardian.com)

People are used to seeing stark warnings on tobacco products alerting them about the potentially deadly risks to health. Now a study suggests similar labelling on food could help them make wiser choices about not just their health, but the health of the planet....

cricket97,

getting wrecked by who? you think cryposting on lemmy is doing anything?

cricket97,

where did he lie? are you suggesting that using aids to alter someones appearance is somehow lying?

cricket97,

He didn’t ban drag, he banned children from attending sexual themed drag shows

cricket97,

It actually would be pretty easy to ignore him but this place is absolutely obsessed with dissecting his every move.

cricket97,

The value of twitter isn’t its revenue but rather its userbase. Which is still extremely strong.

cricket97,

So you genuinely think twitter is worth 0$? If so, you are dumb. corporate debt means nothing when the main value you have is intangible, nonliquidatable assets. Twitter is still worth a lot of money, even with it’s debt and revenue decline.

cricket97,

by actually taking up the offers of drug treatment they are given. I used to work in a homeless shelter and you’d be blown away at how little they care about anything but getting high. They have resources tossed their way for free and they refuse them because they only care about continuing their life of debauchery and drugs.

cricket97,

It is abuse in that it’s misusing the resources for purposes not intended. Public libraries are not meant to be hotels for the homeless, and it ruins the experience for everyone else. Hate me all you want for saying it but its the truth.

cricket97,

A majority of the homeless people in my local library are drug addicts. They are not people simply down on their luck. And they will continue to be homeless until they stop taking drugs. As long as they are on drugs/drinking there is no way out. And they refuse treatment most of the time.

cricket97,

pronouns in bio -> opinion discarded

cricket97,

It absolutely is a failing of the individual. It can still be a “disease” at the same time.

A few of them may be addicts and we extrapolate it to the whole group.

Oh please, most of them are. Drug addiction is the leading cause of prolonged homelessness, followed by mental illness.

Often times the unhoused become addicts after they experience homelessness,

And often times their addiction caused them to be homeless. I’m not sure what value there is in trying to prove exceptions when the general trends are clear as day.

Society has failed them.

I used to work at a homeless shelter when I was doing some community service work and I can tell you first hand most of them don’t want help. They don’t care. They just want drugs. They get offered treatment opportunities all the time but they refuse because they can’t get loaded.

Bud Light brewer is still struggling to sell the beer in North America over trans promotion backlash (apnews.com)

Anheuser-Busch Inbev said Tuesday that revenue growth in most of its global regions was offset by a drop in North American sales, in a sign of continuing fallout from a promotion with a transgender influencer that cost it sales....

The definition of values is “a person’s principles or standards of behavior; one’s judgment of what is important in life.”
