My biggest issue with Epic is them very clearly doing the classic tactic of selling goods at unsustainably low prices in order to drive out competition before jacking them back up again. Their whole free game shtick can't possibly last forever and they know it.

I don't think every piece of media has to promote revolutionary politics in order to justify its existence.

Superman's primary villain is literally a white collar criminal that uses the system in order to stymie efforts to hold him accountable. A lot of superhero media could stand to be more critical of the police and prison system but it's a little more complicated to dismantle capitalism than it is to foil violent crime and respond to accidents and disasters.

I'm in the awkward position of being genuinely excited by this type of technology while desperately wishing literally anyone but Elon Musk was pushing them.

Long overdue but still an important step forward.

James Cameron actually has a lot of experience in submarine exploration, if any celebrity should be weighing in on this it's him.

Human life has value, even when they're people you don't like.

I take the radical perspective that people dying horrible pointless deaths is a bad thing and should be prevented. Yes, even stupid rich people.

TFW you really want people to stop talking about the molotov-ribbentrop pact.

Funnily enough they also endorsed Trump before the 2020 election.
