But if I go too easy on people, it tells them “It’s okay to support evil, fun-hating bad guys who love to bully their fans and ruin the industry.” And it’s bad enough that people are willing to fund this. But it’s also SO FRUSTRATING when people DEFEND Nintendo like they’re unpaid PR. What would they have to gain from this if Nintendo WASN’T paying them to lie?! Seriously, the mental gymnastics people use to defend Nintendo with is insane!
“Erm- akchewally, Nintendo charging $80 for worse versions of better games that you can’t even own is morally correct. I studied economics PURELY for the reason of defending $80 games! Being against any evil thing Nintendo does is entitled. You should be more grateful for unlikeable villains.”
And they way they PRETEND that we’re the “quit having fun” people, when it’s actually Nintendo and their SHILLS who are anti-fun, not us!
Most people on lemmy are anti-capitalist. Thats i believe one of the reasons they are here at all and not on reddit for example.
I get what your saying about it being frustrating but it does very much seem like being to hard on people pushes them away, leaving you with little allies to help argue in your favor.
I was seriously expecting you to start raging against me also.
I am positively surprised you didn’t and very much appreciate having kept it civil. Thank you for showing us this side of you. It really does help in order to appreciate your thoughts.

Funny thing is, I’m actually banned from Reddit. And I’m used to having to argue with shills to the point where I couldn’t trust anyone.
It’s so cathartic that Lemmy isn’t nearly as stupid as Reddit is. Perhaps I shouldn’t have lashed out like I did.
