>what do i do?

literally the wrong question. the marriage is in shambles primarily because of what *the society* does - and what it fails to do.

for stable, successful marriage, find a community that does support such, and opposes breakups, strife, lack of leadership, etc.

other than finding a good society, focus on doing *your* thing well. all other considerations are tertiary.

while i appreciate Alex' insight from the other side of barricade👍...

...i would first focus on Morlock's experience. he's a lad's lad, and his life's record speaks for itself 👌

Morlock provides advice that's both actionable (as men do) and easily passed down the generations (as fathers do):

>You could write a short statement, 500 to 1000 words

the beauty of english language, where "a statement" also stands for "a collection of several statements"
thank you @stibdiver for jolting my memory
it is the ultimate travesty and joke of the universe

that the word "auto-autonym" is not an auto-autonym itself. we shall endeavor to make it so.

and then we're coming for the palindrome.

superbly interesting observations.

since the thread spirals into a blackpill, let's see if we can shift it back to normal track

background: progressivism is the official religion of the west.
USA is exporting it heavily to other countries.

two subject to investigate:
- what are the differences between USA and target countries

>It just creates a selection pressure for religions to shed the spandrels named "church" and "god."

key words: "selection pressure".

for gameplay reasons, the original Cyberpunk 2020 had un-copyable programs & files. you couldn't just copy stuff from your own cyberdeck to your buddy's.

the game would've been a bit less *engaging* if you could. call it a cyber superpower.

the present-day gate-keeps are the mass distribution platforms that enforce the (quite broken) DMCA to cover their own arses.

you *think* you can copy any program or any file, but it gets ever more at mercy of devices' manufacturers.

remember Gamasutra and Leigh Alexander?

they became irrelevant, and gamers are doing better than ever.

cf. this 2014 article: Image

there is a name for your core audience, Zack.

interesting, but ultimately superficial analysis by @ezraklein.

supervicial in a very self-serving way.

>the more political media people consumed, the more mistaken they were, in general, about the other party

this is not damning of the news. this is damning of the parties that did let the 2...6% minorities *drive the agenda*.
3/
>The more political media you absorb, the more warped your perspective of the other side becomes.

as above - the reality is that tiny minorities were *empowered* to drive the agenda.

it wasn't mis-reporting; it was undue amplification through sympathetic media.
