Mastercard’s ties to the esports world have led to more evidence of censorship. A source leaked messages from the Riot Games sponsor to livestream channels during the Valorant Champions Tour. The payment processor asked moderators to delete messages accusing it of forcing the ban of Steam games.
uh huh. but why? why express it in biblical fluffery, when it’s faster (and clearer) to just say the greedy selfish bastards?
if it means the greedies get shot before me I can accept this.
Everyone is selfish, molloch isn’t real,
it’s a thinking pattern that everyone is subject to
my friends admitted to using credit cards because
“at least they get rewards”
by personifying the behaviour pattern
you can demonize it
without calling your friends “greedy selfish bastards”
It is much easier to see it and understanding
that way than if you’re being attacked
and then become defensive about it
the point of communication is the exchange of ideas.
packaging those ideas in incomprehensible biblical fluffery is counterintuitive if you’re goal is communication.
but ok, whatever, have a good one
