wouldn't it be fucked up if a childrens game contained within it a group of big nosed merchants and incentives to dehumanize them along with it

like it'd be seriously fucked up if a children's block building game made by a weird racist had a group of people that's made distinct from the player, functioned as merchants and so reducible to a set of mechanics that they're effectively reduced to cattle right

@a_lizard that's just how you interpreted my comment, but nothing in my comment expressed that. Lol = laugh out loud. That's an expression merriment or the the perception of humor.

@a_lizard yeah pretty much, lol. It's funny to me that someone could unironically find outrage in Minecraft :)

@Demosthenes what a boring life you must lead that applying a different critical lens is seen as "being outraged"

@a_lizard not boring, just tiring. Lots of people take offense to the most inane things, but to remain silent about their ridiculousness is to give them power.

A good example of this is a comment you made about me wrt pronouns. You implied that not having pronouns in my bio is somehow offensive, but you just didn't like that I don't have tribal signals that mirror your own. Pretty silly.

@Demosthenes i just think that and the mental gymnastics you employ are just kind of funny.
