I just don’t know what to say because I was that person before. A lot of people men especially are extremely pigheaded and argumentative, and you can be justifiably upset at them. If your goal is to help women and further feminism though, even a “correct” gotcha like this makes people less receptive to feminism. It’s just making enemies out of people who might be wrong, stubborn, and combative, which unfortunately is basically everyone at some point in their life.

So then he is misinformed, which many people are. I don’t put someone into the “enemy” box for being misinformed or stubborn, that’s pretty much the default state of most humans.

Well some people literally just don’t realize that other people have problems they don’t have, and don’t look into it further or are actively told it’s not a problem. Source: me from 13 to 16 until I watched a lot of speeches on it and talked to friends irl about it.

The only thing the guy said was wrong was that it’s reverse sexism. If he said “so your main concern is improving things for women? That’s not egalitarian unless you believe women have it much worse than men today.” It’s someone misinformed being told he’s an enemy. Ragebait

I’ve tried this and part of the problem is if you’re already tired, being bored doesn’t suddenly make you capable of doing more, now you’re just tired and bored. It’s better in the long term because the times you might not be tired you’ll be more willing to do things instead of the instant dopamine activities, but I’m not sure if that’s worth all the time spent being super bored.

I mean I’m not sure what to say to that as that has not been my experience playing at either high or low level in league, and I’ve heard the same from tons of other people. If the jungler is hyper fed and your team doesn’t put wards, you are not allowed to trade or play aggressive ever, because you are essentially the team’s lifeline at that point and if you die the game will hyper snowball.

I have seen and been in the position of winning lane all game and then just perma camped so I just have to sit and farm and hope my team catches up while I soak the junglers time, and I end the game 0/0/2 or something similar and we lose, or 2/5 games if I made no mistakes I can pull back these hyper lost games, which are about 30% of league games. It’s also if 1 person messes up, that makes it so everyone else has to play MUCH more defensive, i.e. waveclear and run away, for a large portion of the game

All the time you spend walking back to lane, waiting for the next wave because you cleared the wave but you’re camped, sitting behind tower because you’re countered, sitting in gray screen because you got dove but its more optimal to get the wave and die, all of that is just pure typing time.

Compare that to hots, your team is giga trash so you’re down 2 levels. Always a camp to get, always another wave to run to, always positioning to be gotten. There is literally no moment in hots that there isn’t something to do, no matter how bad your team is or how behind you are. If you have literally nothing to do, you run around near where an enemy is to try and see when they rotate, or try to put yourself to catch the wave right as they leave. If you did that in league you are griefing unless you already fully pushed your wave, don’t have a good base timing, have high hp and mana, and know where the enemy jungler/support/top are. If you are adc and your support is bad in league you are not allowed to play. If your jungler is bad you are not allowed to play. If the enemy mid is an assassin who is fed you’re not allowed to play. None of that is true in hots (except the assassin part a little bit).

Usually 10-15 minutes, not unusual for it to go to around 20 sometimes. I haven’t seen past 25 I don’t think, that would be both teams wiping each other every fight. The objectives just push the game to a conclusion pretty quickly, since they are very low risk to start and kill towers/buildings either directly or indirectly. It’s sort of like if dragons were weaker, spawned every 3 minutes, and made a rift herald if you kill one.

I don’t think that’s true, go try heroes of the storm and it’s 10x less toxic. In hots half the time I would type something I’m pulled back into playing because there’s something always happening. In league you could sit behind your tower typing 90% of the time and it would make 0 difference to the game. Plus in league, if someone else is bad and dies, not only are you down a player but the enemy is actively stronger, and you can have 0 impact on it for the first 50% of the game.

That they managed to create an actual real feeling of excitement around books and followed through with exciting fun books is actually really impressive.

I used to watch Destiny, and while I still like that he does tons of research and shows people why maga talking points are wrong, I started noticing more and more I hate being around people who really care about their ego. He would be having a discussion with someone and instead of saying hm that’s partially true but here’s what I think could be missing, he says NO that is WRONG! It’s such a massive waste of time to care about “winning” a debate, both people learn less and get more angry. I’ve noticed this with basically everyone who gets successful streaming, they kinda lock in at the age they were when they got successful.

Pretty true just sometimes hard to tow the line of not showing off.

That said I’ve had conversations with people where I said like 10 words that were just interesting questions and the other 99.9% was them talking and vice versa. Sometimes the best and most interesting conversations are just asking great questions, provided the other person really wants to talk about it.

The article is really confusing, it says they posted you win we resign but also that the head mod kicked everyone. Maybe the first part was the mods bring facetious?

c/196 had a mod who did something like defederate from an instance without asking the users (I’ll see if I can find it) and everyone said adios

e: https://sh.itjust.works/post/31368210

Basically users disagreed with the mods about moving the comm to lemmy.world and made a new community even on the same instance, c/onehundredninetysix

A lot resigned because people were mad over the ban. The analogy would be more like a politician resigns after everyone complains about their policy.

Crazy how a mod tried this on lemmy and everyone just went to a new instance.

Lol

I was hoping to get you to actually engage with a hypothetical but it seems that’s impossible. I also see more than skin color at a glance, but again you’re not engaging with the hypothetical since I said they are identical other than skin color, but sure.

Ok say you had to let someone watch your dog or it will starve or get very sick from overeating and all your friends/family/acquaintances are out of town, and there was a medical emergency that the ambulance is just about ready to leave, and you were wearing headphones so you didn’t notice anything was wrong until the people in the ambulance walked in through the door someone else had opened for them. You have 10 seconds before the ambulance leaves with your loved one, and have to decide from 2 onlookers. One person is white and one is black. That is the only difference you can gather as you are quickly walking by, and you don’t have time to get a good look at either of them. You can only choose one because your landlord’s policy only allows you to have 1 person who isn’t you have a key to your apartment. Which do you choose?

I don’t disagree, but it’s like asking a woman who she would rather be alone with, an unknown man or an unknown woman. There’s also familiarity bias and having more in common. I don’t think I have to be racist or prejudice to know there will in general be less friction with a white dude vs a black dude, because that’s just most people around me. I still try and ignore that because I know it’s limiting my experiences, but there are good reasons that I wouldn’t ascribe purely to prejudice.

Also for the wheelchair example, I again think there are reasons for this. For the person in the wheelchair you often don’t know why, did they have a stroke and can’t speak? Are they ill? Or did they just hurt their leg? I’m not saying people wouldn’t be biased against the disabled even if that weren’t true, but a lot of these have legitimate reasons that aren’t just prejudice (maybe the dictionary definition but not irrational prejudice).
