  • Nobody is forcing you to pay for the loot boxes, hell nobody is forcing you to play the games with them. You could play literally nothing but Rimworld, Baldurs Gate 3, and Crusader Kings 3 without ever looking at their live service shit. Regardless even on that front Valve is still better than most.

    Also I don’t see profits off of gambling as immoral, I see it as stupid and weak willed by those who participate but not immoral.







  • Agreed though most of it comes from the increased federalism centralization over the last 150 years or so, if we could do something as simple as cut off trade or otherwise demand concessions for trade to flow I can almost guarantee that the red states would learn to play nice. Either that or ban their pathetic politicians from stepping foot in blue states.

    Also it may for them to become more functional over all, when fucking Idaho is one of the more functional and economically balanced red states ya done fucked up.







  • State currencies are ideally based off of the economy as a whole, failing that then ya use strategic resources such as oil, metals, or even farmland if you produce enough agricultural output. While state currencies and their modern backings are esoteric due to the sheer fucking scale of it all cryptocurrency is esoteric in the same way stocks are, the average person doesn’t understand it and there’s a solid chance most folks when they do gain a vague understanding realize it’s stupid esoteric bullshit with undue influence.
