I'm so glad that spider's living its best life even while being crippled

To be fair there still is a lot of tinkering involved to get gaming on Linux working properly (unless you're on the steamdeck, but even them you'll have to tinker for anything that's not verified). Switching proton runners, changing launch options, fighting updates. It's definitely more than most people are willing to deal with. For me personally, I've had to stop updating my video drivers because Nvidia 555 causes all Proton games to crash for me.

I enjoy the experience of tinkering and troubleshooting, so I'm okay with all that, but I completely understand why most people wouldn't want to use Linux for gaming.

Wouldn't this dude be 15-16 at the time of those posts? That's a lot of time for a young person to change their views. I know I basically did a 180 from conservative to leftist in that time frame.

I'm not trying to say he wasn't right-wing, but using what someone posted when they were in high school as evidence for political motivation 4-5 years later seems flawed to me

I mean it doesn't specify that the right path has to be empty.

The Boys is what always got me. It was "woke" from the first season, criticizing evangelicalism and corporatism, themes that were (and still are) major topics of debate today. As the show goes on, it tackles more ongoing issues like rainbow capitalism, police brutality, and now, rising fascism in America, and it's only woke now?

I hope Everett has a descendant out there continuing his good work

I mean (playing devil's advocate here as a former Mormon and later Christian, currently an atheist), the natural state of humanity is to not follow God, as seen in 1 Corinthians 2:14: "The natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God". So the argument an apologist would make here is that women need to go against their nature and submit to men. Much better, right 🙄
