Notice how massive meltdowns over video games get, versus things that actively harm/kill people.

Not that I don’t agree with Stop Killing Games’s mission, or recognize that micro transactions being shoved into everything is a symptom of how shit late stage capitalism is, but I wish that same kind of “front page on every website, massive signature/phone call campaign” that happened when that Diablo mobile game was bad happened for all the shit that ends up on ProPublica on the daily. Like, can we phone bank to tell Idaho to stop treating disabled kids like shit or something?

A lot of folks lives seem to revolve entirely around video games/gooning, and it’s just kind of sad.

Well signatures and phone calls only go so far. When it comes to big, serious, literal life or death issues, petitions just aren't going to get the job done and it becomes pretty pointless to waste your energy on that particular course of action.

Similarly, it's pretty shitty to act like action on smaller issues means we're just ignoring bigger issues. Your concern for Idaho's treatment of disabled kids isn't instead of wanting Israel's genocide to stop or the Ukraine war to end.
