That would imply game dev is a science.

Thet benefit by feeling closer to (what they imagine is) their culture. We’re talking about people who left for some quick cash and ended up spending 30, 40 years there. They have a daughter that’s born there, grew up there, and never lived outside of there, and they worry she’ll be sad when she has to break up with her boyfriend “when we all move back home”. They feel like they’re separated from their nation because they are, and psychologically deny this by voting for someone so rabidly and loudly nationalist they can hear him all the way in Frankfurt.
It’s similar to folks from, idk, Boston, who will occasionally vacation in Ireland and conclude “they’re not Irish at all over there, they don’t even paint rivers green on St. Patty’s!”

Diaspora, while benefiting from free movement and pluralusm, often feel like they’re losing their identity. In turn, they seek to symbolically reassert this identity by remote-voting for the most far-right maniac they can find. The fact that such a maniac would never have let them in, and will ruin the country, doesn’t bother them as they don’t live there anymore.
- Comment on What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments? 2 weeks ago:
I often get the feeling those people see everyone who voices dissent as one big amorphous blob. It’s as if every conversation on a topic is part of one long argument, and you get assigned every claim that anyone ever made. Almost like they watched that “moops” alt-right playbook video and drew the exact wrong conclusion.

I was under the impression it was the “Hillary warned us” and “Putin is behind everything” crowd, since it mirrors the MAGA saviour and conspiracy fantasies.

That’s a “converter” in the same way an ejection seat is “a chair”.

You joke, but can you honestly tell me this place wouldn’t be full of people making trolley problem ““arguments”” about the obviously correct choice to make?
- Comment on The best thing *you* can do for the fediverse is *just be kind* 1 month ago:
I’ve had the thought that if I were to design a psyop campaign, a pretty solid option for dominating the discussion would be to come out swinging and accuse everyone else of being an agent. That way, people have to either constantly defend against accusations, or they conclude, rightly, the accusations are baseless and decide to disregard the very idea that there is a psyop going on.

Sure, but that’s usually done through a UPS cabinet, not on an individual device level.

Appliances that don’t depower when unplugged sound like an incredibly bad idea.

I agree.
Except for the “this paper will be sad if you don’t read it” one, that one’s on point.

So what you’re saying is, the complaint about China spying on people boils down to piracy?

- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 3 months ago:
Frankly, it’skind of the opposite: the slavery part of the argument is obvious, simply because IIRC the model of chattel slavery the US south operated on was only viable through the constant flow of new people to feed into the meatgrinder. The “better off” part is kinda dubious.

Oh, sure, especially if it’s the same few users. It’s just mildly surprising to not even run into them.
