I know what transhumanism is, but people who are not, for example, academics in a related field calling themselves a transhumanist makes no sense to me. Like, as a transhumanist, what do you do?
Are these people just identity-hungry fans of a genre of sci-fi? Are they saying we shouldn't work to solve societal problems because technology will do it for us? Do they just watch a lot of youtube videos about it?
The choice to specifically use the word "democracy" here instead of "nation" or "country" is pretty strange, would doing war crimes be okay to do if the target country was designated not-a-democracy?
One of my favorite insights is that dehumanization spreads itself, and both the objective and the subjective kinds tend to cause each other in a giant web of reciprocal relations. It pops up everywhere, and it is something we will have to consciously fight.
I happen to know only one thing about China, the one-child policy, but luckily it is the only thing needed to explain every social phenomenon
Can you imagine these leftists who argue for this game actually trying to organize? Someone whose reaction to this is "Uh actually it's a consumer boycott and therefore not effective🤓" must be just incapable of solidarity of any kind. Genuinely, unironically doing the "there are starving people in Africa" argument at trans people asking for recognition. Absolutely 0 self-awareness.
- Put some research into finding a way to not have 1/4 of the characters be pedophiles
- Turn down the dating simmyness by about 70 %, let the other characters develop interpersonal relationships
- Keep turning the "main character actually having character traits" dial, we can reach 10 % by 2050
- Maybe two fewer Revolver Ocelot voice Mr. President scenes than in 5
- Since we are doing social themes, how about "communism is good"?
- Ska soundtrack
