You see, Hummus was having an existential episode about Solipsism and sought to take it out on the nearest thing that claimed its own existence. Isreal was just the nearest such thing.
That, and someone was playing This Land Is Mine WAY too loud last night, and Hummus is cranky.
The nestlé boycott has always struck me as mostly hollow. I mean sure, it’s not a bad thing to do, but it seems for the majority of people it starts and ends there. Like yup, that’s the one bad company
I was honestly surprised how far muscle memory carried me there. for context, without glasses I need to put my phone a few centimeters from my face to read anything. I’m close sighted.
Potentially unpopular opinion: This analogy implies that the impoverished are a threat to politicians and rich people, yet sadly I feel like today’s society will/would never fight back. We have a major apathy problem among younger millennials and younger gens I’ve noticed.
It doesn’t matter if the opinion is popular or not, because it is simply untrue.
“According to the Census Bureau, voter turnout in the off-year 2018 election was the highest in four decades. Driving that record engagement in part was a near-doubling in participation from voters aged 18-29. Voting among this cohort increased by 79 percent, with younger voters responsible for 36 percent of votes cast (up from 20 percent in the previous election).”
“Members of Gen Z are more racially and ethnically diverse than any previous generation, and they are on track to be the most well-educated generation yet.”
“ Millennials are more racially diverse, more tuned in to the power of networks and systems and more socially progressive than either Gen X or baby boomers on nearly every available metric. They tend to favor government-run health care, student debt relief, marijuana legalization and criminal-justice reform, and they demand urgent government action on climate change.”
Yes but more importantly reward. If you spend time dig into a game system, you will be rewarded by the system. Whereas life, you can do everything right and still lose.
The world has a justice problem. Imo we are not vigilant enough to weed out injustice when it happens. Justice is what also rewards you for doing good. Do good in a job, get promotion. Do bad, get demotion or get fired. Even in school most teachers have their darlings and don’t care about those struggling. At least the schools I‘ve seen so far.
Games promote very good reward systems that we fail to use as grownups for things that actually matter instead of raking in money for investors.
