no, because MMR vaccines have been proven to be safe, and you are informed that your child must be vaccinated to go school; it’s not like the kid is vaccinated against their knowledge once they get there
birth control pills can have side effects, sometimes very detrimental, and in this hypothetical scenario they’re hidden in the meth, so you don’t even know it’s there
- Comment on Iron 22 hours ago:
no, because people choose to take them
if they’re forced, then yes, it’s eugenics
- Comment on Iron 22 hours ago:
“no no you see, in this case, eugenics is justified!”
i don’t care. it’s still wrong.

do you have the same energy towards steam, who capitulated earlier, harder, and hasn’t seemed to be interested in negotiating, despite being much much more powerful and influent than itch?

its that way to mimic the old “slide to unlock” thing on iphones

- Comment on Itch.io apologise for "frustration and confusion" after delisting thousands of NSFW projects 1 week ago:
the problem is the payment processors, not itch
unless you’re fine with crypto, sending cheques by mail or having everything be free, your new platform is gonna get the same problems once it’s big enough to be noticed

yea, i said 13 to mirror the post, but you’re right
- Comment on We wouldn’t need the Epstein files to prove DJT’s guilt if society just trusted women in the first place. 1 week ago:
If I call you a terrorist I guess I can expect you to be picked up tomorrow morning?
i mean isn’t that exactly what’s happening in the US right now
in a world that’s as hostile to survivors of SA as ours, yea i believe them when they make accusations. does this hold up in court? no of course not, of course you need proof*, but it’s worth mentioning that many times accusations can’t even make it to court because police doesn’t believe survivors either!
* well except if you’re white and the person you’re accusing isn’t. there “justice” is waaaay more lenient about what proof is, and the police has a much easier time believing you too. but that’s more telling of the racism of the justice system than of how SA survivors just always get what they want

that’s why i don’t think anything’s gonna change for powerful men on the epstein list if it gets released. many of these men already have allegations of sexual abuse against them and they still live their life just fine
(also, holy shit those comments??? that post about how lemmy is worse for women than reddit was wasn’t lying, jesus)
- Comment on They even got their own island 1 week ago:
being a girl is scary cuz the moment you turn 13, creepy men are ogling at you
- Comment on Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors 1 week ago:
mention of sexual assault
not OP, but for example the first game collective shout went after a few months ago (“no mercy”) was explicitly a game about raping women to make them obedient. this is bad not because its NSFW, it’s bad because it’s rape apologia, which makes it a misogynistic hate game. to me, it’s not much different than “chad vs the gay nazis”, another hate game that was released around the same time and was also quickly delisted. I wouldn’t be surprised if other games that just got delisted were as bad as no mercy. but also, the blanket banning of anything NSFW (or even just kinky) sets a terrible precedent.

except at least the commie blocks were affordable lol
“cheap to build” meant “cheap to rent”, not “our housing company is making record-breaking profits! 😃”
- Comment on Nintendo touts high employee retention rate after loss of Microsoft jobs rocks Xbox Game Studios 2 weeks ago:
microsoft: we just fired entire studios that we bought recently. we are building a master collection of IPs to do nothing with other than passively profit off of them forever using game pass. part of this master plan is to cause large instability in the video game industry. also we are quite literally helping a genocide.
lemmy: oh. that’s kinda shitty but I liked oblivion remastered :)
nintendo: we made our game 80$
lemmy: if anyone even thinks about liking some of your stuff they should be burned at the stake.
<srs> obviously im exaggerating to make a point, and no if you ask I don’t like nintendo. fuck them. but I think the reaction here is a bit disproportionate. a company could do all the evil in the world but as long as they don’t touch the sacrosanct consumer, it’s all good in the eyes of a gamer! </srs>
- Comment on LIMBO and INSIDE are being delisted from GOG on July 17th 3 weeks ago:
GOG and itch’s approach to preservation is always gonna be limited by legality, you can’t keep a game on your platform if the publisher requests its delisting; ofc piracy isn’t constrained by this, so it’s inherently better at preservation
at least, since the games on there don’t have DRM, once you have them you keep them (and with GOG, you can also download offline installers that you can reuse on any computer you want). they make piracy way easier in that way, because pirates don’t even need to repack
