@beardalaxy @magicalthinking We all know that neocons will be the ones doing the cancelling.
@beardalaxy I don't think they involved using a phone directly, but you had BBS door games, games played over TeleType, and early online console games (they weren't played over the Internet, but instead via dialing directly to the other player).
I don't think phone menu games were ever a thing. I may be wrong, but if they were I should see some YouTube video or a podcast on it.
I don't know what to say about conservatives embracing cancel culture. You may argue that these leftists deserve the taste of their own medicine, but I don't think it's going to stop at Charlie Kirk.
This wouldn't be the first time conservatives embraced cancel culture either. I think Ben Shapiro is known for calling people to cut ties to people he doesn't like which is ironic coming from someone who is prominent in the "anti-woke" movement.
My only concern is that many of these conservatives consider you to be on the side of antifa if you are critical of the US military or at least America's military overreach and I can see many people losing their jobs because some conservative accused them of shitting on American troops.
@Spooke @zeroraining107 @Kyonko802 I really think "Live and let live" only works if you have individual communities where people can associate based on culture, lifestyle, politics, etc and people can freely choose which community to live in.
In other words, it only works if freedom of association also exists and that there will be a community somewhere that will accept you. It doesn't work when everyone has to put up with everyone else.
@All_bonesJones That sounds more like a BBS door game. That's different.
I have this crazy idea that only makes sense in the 80s and 90s, but has never been done as far as I know.
You know how when you call a business or some other organization you get an automated phone menu? What if someone used an automated phone menu and made an adventure game or RPG with it? It could even be multiplayer.
It sounds like a cool concept. I could imagine an alternate timeline where those types of games enjoyed a niche back in the 80s or 90s, but I can't see that happening today.
I don’t buy a single goddamn word of the official Charlie Kirk assassination story.
I don’t know what really happened, and I’m fine saying I don’t know.
What I do know is when I’m being handled. This is handling.
The cover up is disgustingly sloppy and insultingly obvious. The idea that we’d buy it is offensive.
Elites trade our attention like currency. They think if they move fast enough the crowd will clap on cue. They keep pretending we’re gullible enough to swallow it whole.
You are not a focus group. You are not cattle. Own your attention. Own your outrage. Refuse to rent them your mind like the good little drones they think you are.
Wake the fuck up.
