Honestly, I don't believe save TF2 will get anywhere. Valve is clearly uninterested in supporting the game, and who could fault them? It's an old game, and games don't need to be supported just because people play them.

The real problem Valve is playing with is that TF2 is still monetized. They should not be selling microtransactions for a game this broken. If they weren't selling microtransactions, they would be entirely in their right to kill all official support and leave the game to community servers.

My main concern is that Valve will calculate this over the bad PR they're receiving, and rather than do anything to curb the bot problem, simply kill their support for TF2. I would be okay with this. I think most people wanting to #SaveTF2 won't be.

the status quo is at once 'capitalism is the best system we got, freest shit ever, yo don't even try anything else we have it sorted' and 'you need to live in reality, the world is the way the world is, we can't fix problems inherent our society'

i do what i do for free so someone hit me up with the link of where i get paid for this, honestly i can be motivated to do it more

I was annoyed with 'anti tankies' long before I ever consider myself a tankie. it's just so annoying seeing people dismiss like some perfectly logic argument with 'u read theory? tankie'

tbf marxist critique on kids shows is really common. breadtube for all of its revolutionary might loved talking about kids shows so much that it's pretty much all it ended up doing.

i kinda get it. i mean kids programming is going to hand deliver whatever the dominant ideology is straight to the minds of impressionable kids. there's something to analyze there. don't know how productive it is but it's fun, at least.

damn, they did it. they destroyed marxism. nothing else worked but they got us here

in a few hundred years historians will look back at this time of the internet and feel extremely frustrated that we had perfect record keeping systems that would retain all this knowledge and culture forever but we for some reason let companies blackhole it

Vaush is creepy. I don't think he's a specific pedophile, just so porn-addled and coomerbrained that his filter for acceptable discourse has been ground down to nothing. Anyone who keeps a porn folder probably falls into the same category.

Basically, someone I wouldn't trust my kids around either way.

There was absolutely sexual violence during the holocaust and the german army absolutely raped their way through both the western and eastern fronts. What did you mean by this? All armies rape and pillage, the US, the brits, the italians, the french, the japanese, even the aussies did it.

Do you actually think armies full of men just...don't rape?

yeah I'd probably wanna stop the nazis too

no one tell this guy that raping and pillaging comes standard with armies and warfare. almost like war is bad and has a negative effect on the land and people or somethin idk

The fastest way to get a gawky white american teenager spitting revisionism at you is to plainly state that the Soviet's were instrumental to winning the second world war.

b-b-but the Molotov–Ribbentrop pact!!

It's really good. Twitter doesn't need to lose for Mastodon to win. But, also, Twitter is probably about to lose.
