He’s afraid he’ll be martyred. Don’t forget, Navalny returned to Russia willingly right after releasing a documentary on Putins secret mansion. It was allegedly to put Putin in the awkward position of choosing between keeping an opponent with popular support alive, and killing him and potentially motivating the masses. Locking him away somewhere distant and keeping him there until he’s forgotten about is probably the best way to get rid of him. I’m pretty sure most Russians know that the legal system is a farce.

Yeah the developers are themselves just workers that don’t profit no matter how well the game sells. Some might incidentally hold some shares in the company they work for but it’s not big money. They aren’t the board and they aren’t the primary shareholders.

People like being known for having a hand in the Big Game of the Decade. People who worked on Skyrim have that as part of their resume and can point at it and gloat about this crazy thing that is beloved by many.

Conversely an attack on a game they had a hand in developing feels like an attack on their own capabilities — whether or not that has anything to do with it directly.

This happens in the military far too often.

Weird how there’s been 28 of these things and not a single one has accomplished anything.

Yeah. Who will we make fun of if they’re all gone?

That’s the joke. This is literally a problem directly cause by capitalism, and voting will not solve this issue.

But people still think voting is the only way we can improve society.

You’re so deep in. Wow. You can literally turn on the TV and see the bodies and burned out apartments stacking up on corporate media.

The tide is turning, Zionist. The world is starting to hate Israel.

It’s because the money that finds its way into the party only does so at the behest of the billionaires and millionaires. If they start leaning left, with more candidates that push for labor reforms like AOC, that money gets cut off. Political parties under capitalism can only operate one way.

The democrats are right leaning centre. Good god, man, you don’t even know what a leftie is.

Kind of hoping Russia gets what they want and the US Balkanizes. It wouldn’t make the world a safer place but it would make me feel a little better temporarily. Then we can all finally stop talking about it and move on to the next topic.
