I don’t think appeasement is the right word, as that would imply Trump is actually trying to help Ukraine rather than trying to slowly create a narrative to justify abandoning Ukraine to Russia.

The worst part is I would bet Zelensky is keenly aware of what Trump is up to, but knows any attempt to distance from Trump would only make it easier for Trump to justify abandoning his people to the wolves.

Honestly feel horrible for Zelensky. Imagine having to sit there and be shouted down to by two men so obviously and utterly corrupt that they consider helping your country fight off tyranny to be a favour, as though that isn’t what the Western world should be doing by default.

Yeah…

• A game with actual gambling disguised as a loot system - perfectly fine, PEGI 3+

• A game that depicts gambling but has no actual gambling in it - absolutely fucking NOT, PEGI 18+

I can understand why PEGI would be hesitant to give a game depicting gambling a rating of 3+…

But putting it as 18+, on the same level as actual, real money gambling games is ridiculous.

It shows a complete lack of awareness regarding the difference in danger between depiction of gambling vs actual gambling. And perhaps more dangerously means malicious publishers (cough EA cough) are able to get away with slipping disguised real money gambling into their games (and in front of children eyes) unnoticed.

Those are essentially mutually exclusive…

If someone wants to argue with you, and you want to disengage, you have to accept that you’re not going to get the last word in no matter how many times you say “don’t argue with me” - cause you can’t control what they can say afterwards.

This is especially true, and comes off as childish, when you’re the one that baited that argument in the first place with “your piece”.

Similar to @Enkers@sh.itjust.works, I suspect I’m lacking some context here, but based purely on what I can see in this post, you came across as rather childish. I’m inclined to say YDI/BPR.

While I do agree that rule should have applied to Cowbee too, that doesn’t give you carte-blanche to do the same.

Also, confronting someone you know to be a troll in an intentionally inflammatory manner, then getting annoyed that they chose to argue with you is like waving a red flag in front of a bull and being surprised it charged at you…

You baited that argument, so I don’t have much sympathy for you in that regard.

It would be quite like Trump to completely disregard the consent of the people of Greenland in this exchange while giving them platitudes about how he respects their rights

Unless Anon is willing to put in some serious work, like properly going back to school or busting their ass learning (and getting good at) a trade, then their life is kinda fucked.

You can’t just crawl out of almost 20 years of NEETing into really any kind of job, especially without the charisma to at least try masking it.

Also fuck knows why Anon’s parents just let them drop out of school and basically cease to exist outside of playing videogames for best part of two decades. That’s plain bad parenting.

So HR left us with just two choices, assured us they were the best of the best, and of course it’s two geriatrics.

… one of whom is a rehire that tried to lynch us when we laid him off the first time. Good job HR, you wonder why people hate you.
