My pet theory is that this was said specifically to destabilize the US. As others have said, this is not new. China has been saying this for a long time. But 100% the GOP is going to call Biden weak for not shutting Xi down and instead saying the US supports a "One China Policy " without any critical thought as to what the dynamics are.
This is to fire up the right wing base.
I disagree. Playing for fun would mean using a controller. Playing for fun would mean using a mouse and keyboard. Playing for fun is NOT finding out if you use your wrist or arm to aim. Playing for fun is NOT finding optimal sensitivity. That's for competition.

That post is outstanding and is a wonderful writeup that highlights the danger of associating with a company as morally bankrupt as Meta.
There is concern that Threads will use embrace, extend, extinguish to depreciate the ActiviyPub protocol. Essentially, they adopt the open standard, expand on it with proprietary additions, then when everyone is using the modified standard they drop support for the open standard and now everyone has to play ball by their rules.
Well two things. One, the bed has that weird slope on the side meaning you have to get things directly from the tailgate if you aren't tall enough to reach over.
The second and more important factor: the target demographic. Country boys that do that kind of shit deride electric vehicles.
I was gonna find a fun obscure trope to link to but then I looked up and an hour had passed
I thought it said Transformers and I was like "why do they avoid mirrors?"
It's not about how people vote. It's about getting people to vote. Emotionally charged people are more likely to vote/volunteer/donate etc.
