[QUOTE=asteroidrules;47929335]Valve's fanbase is devolving into the level of "I'll buy anything if it's shiny and made by [del]Apple[/del]Valve".[/QUOTE]
Is there even valve fanbase at this point? I haven't seen a positive post about valve on this forum for like, six months or more
and I even browse most of the valve-related threads in the game section and the TF2 subforum
even when something like TF2 major update happens people are more like "finally" then "awesome"
I really don't know what are you basing your statement of
[QUOTE=EuSKalduna;47930932]I'm going to guess Intersex and Pansexual[/QUOTE]
Might as well throw in asexual.
Untill of course valve release their next game. Then we love them again.
Though I'm wondering; Do they even develop games anymore? what was the last thing they made? Dota 2 or CS:GO, both in 2012. Well they are a quiet developer and they could be working on source 2, but jesus!
For all the money they make from steam, do they need to make games anymore?

they certainly dont (at least for now), but you brought up an important question: what the hell are they actually doing?
I mean, valve has this super-utopian management scheme where there are no managers and they are all just game developers, right?
Then... why aren't they making games? Like, actually. I'd imagine that a game developer is the kind of a person who actually enjoys making games more then most other things - a lot of gamedevs specifically say that the job is often so murderous that you have to actually like what you do or else you go insane. I understand that don't actually [I]have[/I] to make games now since steam gives them more then enough money, but even then I don't actually see them sitting around in the offices doing nothing all day.
And even if we assumed that's what they are doing all the time... I don't know, but I feel like a creative person even when presented an option to do nothing for money would still try to express oneself somehow - so, since we're talking about gamedevs, they [I]would probably be making games[/I].
so idk, just my few cents

Imo it should just be LGBT+, since afaik the first four are much more common.
I think that Islam, as a religion, is in terminal decline and is starting to undergo a major crisis.
I don't say this with any approval or disapproval of the religion itself, but it just seems to me that with the failure of Islamic revivalism, future of Islam is in doubt.
Not sure how unpopular this is, but The Witcher III is the best western RPG of all time
I really think multiculturalism should loose it's bias towards 'western' ideas. Too much is coming out, not enough is going in.
Bruce Jenner is the western Mohammed.
I don't value people's lives the same way more liberal minded do, especially on here. Now I don't want to be seen as some edgelord, I don't like it when people die, obviously, I'm anti-death penalty, but I also don't think it's inherently a tragedy when someone dies. Most of the time it is a tragedy because most people are nice or at least decent, but when some asshole dies, fine, fuck 'em, don't bother my ass none. Guy breaks in to your house, I don't give a shit if you kill him with a tomahawk.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;47936369]Death isn't inherently bad, it's just a thing that happens to everything.
"Life" isn't inherently good, either.
Nothing is inherently anything! It is only what we perceive it to be.[/QUOTE]
I'm a consequentialist, and I'm pretty sure that my opinions on the matter are almost pathological.
Because it is the end of the mind, you cannot feel anything wrong after death, therefore I believe that death is not bad for the individual. It's just neutral. Would [I]my[/I] death be bad for others? Absolutely. My parents and friends would cry. The things I'd hoped to achieve, which would benefit others, would not come to fruition. But death by itself is not inherently bad.
The problem with that is that I have used that line of logic to back myself into various logical corners with abhorrent results, and been unable to disprove them.
Ancient Aliens is a good show. I don't find any of it to be true, but it's just entertaining for some reason.

It's really fucking good, but not that really fucking good.
I actually get annoyed when people expect me to care about death. A million people died in some battle before my birth? Irrelevant. Your mother just died and you're an adult? Inevitable. six kids that were all yours died in a housefire? ok. I get this horrible feeling that you're using this to your social advantage.
Not that I'm a complete psycho. The mere contemplation of a nearby cripple makes me teary. I'm actualy getting a little teary now. The thought of being broken is somewhat sadder than the thought of loosing life.

Why white? You'd have to find the best combination for Mars' environment. Can be any race bred to maximize survivability and comfort....Unless I misunderstood eugenics.

Usually eugenics is something nazis/other far right people talk about to purify the gene pool.
I'm sure there's at least one thread on stormfront about using space to preserve the white race lmao

I don't remember which thread in particular but in the last month or two there was some thread related to Valve where there were a couple of completely blind fanatics that kept arguing with everyone and trying to refute their points while simply accomplishing making themselves look bad instead.

I don't call myself a liberal or conservative, I'm somewhere in between, like a mix of both. (Centrism?)
the liberal conservative dichotomy is stupid and really doesn't mean much
LGBTQ+ community tends to dislike gays more now aswell since gays are more excepted compared to the others in the community. Its completely stupid and bullshit but its happening. Gays are considered the "white people" in the community.
