@Shadowman311 it was his #2 priority, so still worthy of a song OK?
(#1 was thousands of anonymous partners) -

@MeBigbrain @deprecated_ii @eee counterexample: https://mangadex.org/title/7643e9f6-8455-4a58-b7e8-bf6cd00f5251/tsuki-ga-michibiku-isekai-douchuu
although in this one the protagonist makes friends with a bunch of monsters, and then harshly interacts with humans. It's the mirror image of these JP protagonists treasuring the lives of their human antagonists while butchering monsters like a one-man ecological disaster. -

@eee the protagonist of "Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games Is Tough for Mob" does this as well, letting a guy live who ordered his sister to plant a bomb in his mech, intended to kill him.
then when he interrupts a full-scale military invasion he secures all the enemies without killing them while those enemies are actively trying to kill him and his entire class on a civilian ship.
here the author says "amazingly, nobody died! no hard feelings, haha! and these enemies will be useful later!" while ignoring that such people definitely have a body count already.
and this is supposed to be an anti-hero? He's just a bit rude when he talks.
But, I really only mind it in this story because it reminds me of the JP trope where it's often much worse. By the time the Otome World protagonist is sparing everyone unnecessarily, he's fairly OP, with the author not doing the really annoying thing of raising drama levels with the enemy's evil actions only to never punishing those actions. *That's* where you get
>I've tried to kill you several times
>I've erased your sister's memory of you. You're strangers now, haha!
>I've taken your girlfriend as my wife and brainwashed her into loving me. We have a child now.
>yes please spare me :) I will reflect on my actions :) -

@lain @kaia allow me to explain:
1. Japan is the holy land of vending machines.
2. This is a vending machine.
3. This completely succeeds at being a vending machine. It cools its own drinks, it dispenses those drinks, it has to be loaded and maintained separately, it takes payment of some kind.
4. Therefore this is fine. Some compromises had to be made (for card payments? to avoid small change in lockdown seasno), but the vending machine remains, and that's what's important. -

>I want to make it very difficult for racist trolls to use the most updated version of Lemmy.
this... is a programmer? does he think that no other programmers exist? does he realize how trivially someone could maintain a YouCanSayRetardLemmy fork? Jesus Christ, what a waste of energy.
on the other hand, the folly of this stance eventually got to him:
>This issue was completed a long time ago, the slur filter is entirely optional, you can add one using the config: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/configuration.html
good news, racist trolls! -

@ItsSkyDragonz my favorite is still the "you lose the fight and get a game over -- but wait, it's a hopeless fight and a false game over!".
Especially in the console era where my response was to immediately reboot the console and load my save. -

@PraxisOfEvil what you are experiencing as doomerism is actually the liberal's normal point of view, of having faith in institutions such that he can't imagine them ever failing.
there are many ways to expel this foul energy, but I recommend
a. exercising an incompatible faith in God
b. realizing that the corruption seems robust because the corruption is within vital organizations, and even the non-corrupt naturally swarm to protect those organizations because their failure would be tremendously harmful. People *really* don't want a collapse, and a collapse is not even required to expel corruption which after all consists of human beings who tend to drop dead after a hundred years of operation anyway. Like the villain says in Princess Mononoke, as bad as it seems right now, tomorrow it can be gone like this was all only a nightmare. -

@TheMadPirate @zoomgoboom @ArdainianRight @ChristiJunior @Scatterplot @qthammer99
otherkin: totally harmless, mental-only cringe fetishism about the self (slight risk of road rash when you pretend to be a quadruped outside)
furries: expensive but mostly harmless toy-oriented cringe fetishism about the self (slight risk of harm to animals)
crossdressers: mostly harmless clothing-oriented cringe fetishism about the self (somehow completely socially unacceptable?)
trannies: sterilize yourself, ruin your life, then commit suicide over your cringe fetishism about the self
I'd say that we should encourage sanity, but it might not hurt to let up a little on the tranny alternatives that kids can just grow out of -

@ChristiJunior @jmw150 @AshChapelsGhost Motte and Bailey Fallacy: a form of argument and an informal fallacy where an arguer conflates two positions that share similarities, one modest and easy to defend (the "motte") and one much more controversial and harder to defend (the "bailey")
motte: singular they is a real word in English that has seen some use

can't happen soon enough!
>someone speculates that gay ops will balkanize Russia
chills down my spine.
brief vision of a nightmare world where retarded neocons suck the marrow out of Russia's corpse and go on to finally lose a bunch of wars with China over the next century
"In the end a billion people died but at least we have LGBT flags over Moscow"
I had such patriotic feelings for this country, I swear.
I had a security clearance.
I don't think even getting rid of Biden within a year, before even getting the election, is going to make up for the damage done to western institutions since all these retards went insane over Trump. -

@ArdainianRight @ChristiJunior @AshChapelsGhost @jmw150 it was extremely tedious, but it's still better than "they" because they even use singular and plural "they" in the same sentence. "They" abuse gives you whip-lash over how many people you're talking about. "He or she" is always singular and also *so* tedious that it was used somewhat sparingly, so tedious that authors would rather define specific sexes for specific titles (the editor is female, the reader is male, the writer is male, the publisher is female) that authors would refer to over the course of a book.
But "he or she" would go:
>Before one goes to the toilet, he or she should first check his or her pants to see if he or she has a penis or a vagina. If he/she has a penis, go to the male toilet. Otherwise, go to the female toilet. -
