With innocent people being illegally abducted and wrongfully deported to El Salvador, I am astounded that there is so much concern about the Nintendo Switch 2. Seriously people!! Where are the priorities? WTF?!
You think gamers care about that 💀
"But that only effects those people... What about me!?"
If the past few years have taught me ANYTHING, it's that at least half the "gamers" are cheering the deportations on, so uh, yeah, anyway...
Like it or not (I do not), the most important determining factor in American elections is people's feelings about the economy. The horrors being done by our government are easy to turn a blind eye to. But the cost of living is something that can't be avoided or suppressed.
Economic ruin is how we beat these motherfuckers.
My understanding is this has been the price of thousands of gaming communities enacting a “No politics” rule - people want to keep it external.
“This fucking piece of actual trash! He’s using the most broken character this game has ever put out, and trash talking over it like he’s ever fucked a woman. Literally eat a dick. What do you think, chat?…Oh. Holy shit. Sorry, I just saw some stuff about Trump, listen, I’m sorry, but we don’t talk politics here. It can get really toxic.”
