For a moment, I started wondering which version of the game has a playable character called "Screenwriter"...

"But look at how countries with horrible human rights track record use games and media as propaganda"
Babe, the US has been doing it for very long and their track record is as bad and getting worse.

Talking about "gamewashing" and Saudi Arabia using their investment strength to propagandize while at the same time uncritically accepting games partially funded or influenced by the US Army is so hypocritical
"But the Saudis do it to hide their human right abuses!". And why does the US do it again?

The worst aspect of the US is that it exports its conservative reactionary talking points, which builds on existing conservative thought in other countries.
You have people in China thinking the above, and people in the U.K. suddenly caring about abortion when that was settled decades ago here.

I hope people understand that the anomaly here aren’t the conditions—the conditions are very typical—the anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely
korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

The reality is that the people and ideology that Charlie Kirk represented and sponsored have been enacting state sponsored violence and killing people for a long time. If you're not defending those or fighting the looming workdwide wave of fascism, don't start with "violence is not the answer"

99% of all tv drama relationship issues could be fixed IF PEOPLE WOULD JUST FUCKING TALK TO EACH OTHER.

This is absolutely awful and all the neo-puritanical campaigns that use the name of "progressivism" to wage their war against anything sexual in media are THE WORST. But the ire shouldn't be directed at Itch, but at VISA and MASTERCARD. Payment providers shouldn't be able to hold money hostage.

Can we stop with the articles about how "AI is bad at __". We should know already, AI is not a substitute for anything that humans do. It's, at best, a very dumb hammer that talks back at you with antisemitism the moment you get too distracted
