@TravisV_YT@Bearman3600 I'm not paying a subscription for a service I already pay monthly for. I get permanent value out of buying a piece of hardware and keeping it. I don't get any value out a secondary money sink to access the internet when steam already allows me to do so for effectively free.
@ShitpostRock2 Depends if you consider whatever Half Life game they're working on right now HL3 or not. Because that might just not be the name they're going with.
@Rorro_Lux@unlimited_anger@ducciboi@Pirat_Nation beyond that, CS2 is already an M rated game. kids shouldn't even be playing it and parents should do a better job monitoring their kids. So the entire "exploiting children" argument falls flat.
@Rorro_Lux@unlimited_anger@ducciboi@Pirat_Nation It's apt. The main crux of the issue is people who don't use their godgiven self control to NOT buy/gamble for skins that do nothing in videogames. Parents should make sure their kids aren't gambling in games the same way they should be making sure they aren't looking at porn
@UnholyCasserole@EbenezerGreed@I_Find_Antis Yes, but when you QRT a post about a guy who isn't automatically a pedophile because he includes a variation of hentai in his spankbank, and then call him a pedophile (equivalent to people who have/who desire to harm real kids) it comes off as conflating two very different things
@nhan_tr1245@redbladder5@I_Find_Antis at that point it would make sense. Saying "kill this guy" because you disagree with him is way different than saying "kill this guy and people like them, who I'm going to label as a pedophiles because I don't like their variation of animated pornography"
@UnholyCasserole@EbenezerGreed@I_Find_Antis There's a difference between hating pedophiles vs constantly professing what a good person you are because you hate pedophiles, and hoping people believe you.
Lately it even seems to be some form of inverse projecting where the person ends up being an actual pedophile.
@UnholyCasserole@I_Find_Antis I'm going to pretend you're ignorant, and not being dense out of malice. But saying "kill all pedophiles" while qrting a tweet of a guy talking about loli is conflating two verrry different concepts, one with vile real world consequences, and the other is simply a drawn medium.
