Just like how nutrition labels solved obesity? And carbon footprints solved climate change? Individual choice and responsibility aren’t good solutions to systemic problems. They’re usually championed by businesses to avoid responsibility.

It’s not the games they’re talking about.

Good thing memes can’t be racist and dog whistles don’t exist /s. Not every instance of pepe is, and the ADL admits that (whether or not you agree with them), but the original creator has sued organizations for using it as a hate symbol. Sorry the world is more complex than you think it is.

I’ve seen people outright call for the extermination of minorities in forums. I think everybody can agree that’s pretty heinous. I don’t get to decide if that’s present or not except that I can report it. It’s not just things that can be misinterpreted, there’s a real problem.

It’s a real problem. I’ve seen forum posts calling for the extermination of minorities.

Lick it.

Is one of the pages about why they chose to have 7 levels of toasting instead of 11?

I’m not quite an good as a DDS, but I’m good enough to drill my own cavities. /s

doses normally consumed

So we can just put an much caffeine into a person as we want because it’s ok in normal dosages? That’s wrong. Your analogy sucks. You can’t discount danger because of normal conditions. Tsunamis weren’t normal for Fukushima. Do you understand?

Do we get to ignore things that get labeled irresponsible? Plus, if there’s been a hundred incidents, that pretty much says we aren’t and cannot be responsible enough to prevent them.

Your points aren’t worth arguing further. I will not be engaging anymore. Feel free to continue to think that your analogies are clever; I will not.

Where’s the MLP?

Are you

No.

spend your money however you want

Big fan of the Citizens United decision and money in politics, I take it?

You’re apparently unfamiliar with the concept of the open letter or writing to a specific person instead of just spewing garbage out a general agency. It’s not uncommon.

The Hinduism excuse really doesn’t fly most of the time, especially when we’re talking about hate speech. It’s pedantic and weaselly and does not pass the smell test.

Unsafe could mean, for an examples I have seen on steam forums, that minorities get harassed or told they should be exterminated. Just like Nazis should be scared to be in public IRL, they shouldn’t have safe spaces online either.

I know by your language you already have your mind made up and probably have a real strong opinion on ethics in gaming journalism, but extremism is a real problem.

I don’t really want to engage with people like you, so I won’t be responding further, but I didn’t really want to leave your bs unchallenged.

Should people also have the freedom of choice to buy snake oil that claims to cure cancer, etc? The opposite of freedom is not regulation. That’s a bunch of propaganda used by people when they want to change an inconvenient topic. It’s used, for example, when talking about the ACA and claiming that nationalized health insurance would rob the people of choosing their blood sucking middle man for health insurance.

Caffeine is dangerous and can kill humans in large doses AND meth exists. It’s not one or the other, genius. Please mainline some caffeine to prove your point. Meth exists, you’ll be fine.

Who’s pretending they’re safe? The only pretending I see in the meme is about nuclear. But if you want to argue with something I didn’t say, have at it I guess.

If that’s all that’s holding you back, then just try all the meat substitutes like Beyond, Garden, etc. If you’re looking to be turned off of meat so you don’t want it anymore, then just watch some footage of a slaughter house.

Me, too, so I only read the headline.

The alternative is not necessarily oil.

That’s not my point and I’m already aware.
