That’s an optimistic answer. But I’ll take it. There’s not much optimism around lately.

I’m not sure what your argument is. I’ve been working with pedophiles for 10+ years in the past. I’m curious about how society creates and identifies its “monsters”, that’s all. Not sure you’re on topic.

Maybe that’s the reason. At least that’s what I tend to think. But at the same time, it the rise of pedophilia to the prime type of deviancy looks quite… recent, if I may say? So something is society may have changed in the last decades/century to make it so?

Food for thought indeed, thanks.

Honestly, I’ll vote for them. But they disgust me with all their power struggle about who’s going to be prime minister. In doing so, they’re tearing apart the whole thing. They swore that they wouldn’t betray us. They’re betraying us everyday by showing everybody it’s just a struggle between egos. They’re paving the way for the far right too with this ridiculous display of inflated heads.

I’ll vote for them, then I’ll puke. The only frontliner I’m feeling like supporting in the future is, maybe, Manon Aubry.

France is becoming a far right country on two weeks. Do yourself a favor and stay as far as you can.

Welcome home!

Fair

Quitted reddit during the great exodus and never came back (well of course apart from when a Google search leads me there for an [outdated] answer). Came to Lemmy, never looked back and never left since then. I plan on being here as long as there’s an instance standing.

How odd. A country elects a fascist who then behaves like a fascist.

Well, as a sociology teacher working with psychologists in my current research I get why they decide this.

Politicians like them can’t rule over people even slighty aware of how political discourse and mass manipulation operate.

“So god, we cool?”

Yes, and provided you look at the mod compatibility sheet, it’s a blast!

This. This is brilliant!

Well… Sometimes, even the bad ones, the worst ones, can be exhausted too.

I did. Re-read my message. “A Story Beside”

An RPG on Steam. A story beside. Never thought I’d play a RPGMaker game. One of the best storytelling I’ve seen. An incredible and truly magnificent voice acting and a gripping story. I was left without words at the end.

Played a cracked version of the game. As soon as I finished it, I bought it for me knowing I wouldn’t be doing a second playthrough and bought 3 other copies for friends.

I think I’ll remember it until my last day. Also, a single playthrough of this short game made me understand why voice acting is important, and what it can create when it’s truly good.

It’s been a long time since I’ve read such a sensible comment from this situation.

To OP, I don’t know how to put it, but I feel there’s no real side to pick, expect for zealots and fanatics. A colonizing oppressive state is 150% wrong. Execution of civilians and exploiting your people misery to lead them to a theocratic disaster is 150% wrong.

I’m from a both jew and muslim family and… I’m glad they feel the same way.

My brother/sister in christ, have you considered nuking your neighborhood from orbit ?
