Me: Name a video game that's not politicial.

Them: Sonic the Hedgehog.

*flashbacks of Sonic destroying pollution-spewing machinery and freeing animals from captivity*

Me: *Stares into the camera*

gamers: games should never be political.

also gamers: so here's this RPG were unsustainable energy harvesting is protected by wealthy elite and is killing the planet. and also your party consists largely of a bunch of eco terrorists. and it's an absolute classic and pinnacle of the medium

"No, *you're* cute!"

@Lexi I thought the big complaint was that she was fairly small in the manga but they made her breasts huge in the manga, but they look about the same? https://i.pinimg.com/originals/47/16/a7/4716a7294997e4f11844f9f8e4f0a594.jpg

Anime fans: "Puritans are complaining about the design of Bubble Girl from My Hero Academia!"

Well, that does seem excessive. I happen to think she's cute--

Also anime fans: *make 20+ minute video essays about this and complain that no one would be complaining if it was a male character*

Okay you pervs can whine just as hard haha

@Lexi Fun fact: She was designed by a fan who won a contest to have their character put in the manga!

@Lexi I say this as somebody who watches anime on a regular basis: What the fuck is wrong with anime where we have to direct praise for not sexualizing an underage character?

I feel so seen.

The Tower of Babylon was an attempt to reach equal standing with the Gods, for which we were punished.

The Tower of Babylon was an attempt to strike down the dictators attempting to control us, but the dictators beat us to it and we've been attempting to recover ever since.

Oh, right. And Discord keeps those phone numbers even after deleting your account, so they basically can continue selling your info long after you've consentually killed the contract, meaning Discord is violating the law and your rights by continuing a contract you didn't agree to.

Furthermore, they deactivated the ability to verify locked accounts via any method other than a phone number over a year ago, around the same time Twitter did it.

This means that anyone that uses a VPN proxy will be forced to let Discord track them via phone number or otherwise be unable to change their password.

In short, Discord, like Twitter, is using predatory business practices to force deanonymization onto their users, starting with the ones that value privacy most.
