Cannibalism was nerfed hard in wow.

Chopped up dwarves in EQ next.

Tbh. Reading creepy books about necromancers and Raistlin Majere OK.

Graphic and disturbing interactive images... at a young age.. like under 24... hmmmm. Probably didn't really help.

But then we have medieval tapestries of the crusades and stuff. Non interactive tho.

Tbh. If we know better we can teach better without destroying or forbidding history or creating taboo.

Dr. Suess being in the context of children's books and Dr. Seuss rights holder self selecting to self moderation is quite exceptional. However in the context of history we lose an example of the past.

There can always be new less racist books though. And parents can forbid EQ. A lot of good that did though.

Society should consider spending less on SSRIs and guns, and more on basic survival training and conservation and nutrition.

This.

People have gone soft. Mentally and physically weak. The 100-ish year cycle continues.

Strong men --> good times --> weak men --> hard times --> strong men

Guess where we are right now?

We are for sure in a major period of decadence.

1) About IQ, there was a fall of 14 points between 1999 and 2013 (imagine between 2013 to 2021...)

2) Globally, the number of obesity cases has almost tripled since 1975. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults aged 18 and older were overweight.

3) Social Network, This context where social networks serve as amplifiers for fools and retarded people is crazy. I don't even remember seeing any fake news before these shits network exist.

4) TV, News channels broadcast a stream of information to inform and retain viewers. The competition is tough and so is the race for news exclusivity! The veracity of the information processed is no longer really a priority for some media. This is how the process of consumer alienation begins.

5) Also the "cancel culture" (editing movie, child anime, etc)

It is just few examples of why our civilization is going down.

The "cancel culture" argument is right-wing shtick designed to fuel the faux outrage that Trumptards and conspiracists seem to rely on for their sustenance.

We have more access to information than at any other time in our nation's history. And less government interference. In fact, our government should be less tolerant of lies and misinformation that it actually is.

Zuckerberg and Dorsey aren't the government. Hope this helps.

weak men sold out mankind to capital. now, capital victorious is drowning in an ocean of its own feces. without socialism, barbarism is a foregone conclusion. the imperial core, flooded with an abundance of looted resources, is too entranced by gambling on hypothetical achievements in the future to maintain the labor force those achievements depend on in the present.

Psuedo Commie Posting on a message board (of a 20 Year Old Elf Sim) that is the direct result of Capitalism is hilarious irony

1) Shows the power of Free Market Capitalism that commie is still playing the game 20 years later

2) Exposes his own hyprocrisy regarding (looted resources) when that is the primary activity in said 20 year old video game


What a joke this guy is

Basic and mandatory survival courses would help balance the decadence and create a foundation for realism. And a shared common framework for relations with people outside of our tribal enclaves and immediate networks.
