What if Child A provides financial compensation to Child B for the flute. Both win and are happy.

Child B be will be executed by guillotine for being a capitalist pig!

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

If you don't pick Child C then you're a privileged asshole who should be sent to the gulag with the rest of the academics and journalists.

DachshundSmasher:

Yeah, this whole thought experiment feels like a trap to make people "agree" that business owners should never be sanctioned or taxed, and that people who didn't "earn" things don't deserve anything.

Yes, it's an elaborate trap to make you admit you think slavery is fine. Look how easily you fell for it by making its upsetting you public.

The image literally states the fucking source on it.

What if Child A provides financial compensation to Child B for the flute. Both win and are happy.

And Child C just gets nothing? We're trying to eliminate capitalism, colonialism and white supremacy not perpetuate its injustice.

Child C gains a life lesson. He gets a job as a subway sandwich artist. Saves up for months to finally buy that flute. He realizes he wouldn’t have appreciated it as much if he didn’t work for it. Now driven to succeed in life, he busts his ass. Stacking meats. Mixing sawdust into the dough. He becomes branch manager. Couple years pass, he’s risen to corporate. One day he’s reading the paper and a human interest piece inspires him to create a new image campaign. The marketing boys draw up the Subway Diet with Jared as the face.

It is pretty gross to me. If I would be embarrassed by someone walking in a room with me playing a game I don't do it. The ladder spot is basically soft core porn.

Gaming companies have long been weird on stuff though. They censor one thing and not another or sometimes when something seems even worse it doesn't get touched.

And to be clear I'm not for censorship. If people want to play then it's whatever it's just not for me.

I'm excited for this and will be ignoring any chud attempts at using it for their dumbass culture war.
I'd been fairly lukewarm on it but the boss challenge in the demo convinced me. This might actually be something kinda special.

Spoiler: Ending A (click to show)(click to hide)

You handed the flute to Child A and she played a beautiful song. As she danced until the early hours she attracted a pack of wolfs. When you woke up the child was gone. You followed a blood trail into a cave. All you could recover was the flute broken in half, as the wind howled.

Spoiler: Ending B (click to show)(click to hide)

You handed the flute to Child B who was obsessed by it. They locked themselves in their room and vowed not to come out until they knew the flute was safe. Days, weeks and months passed by as the meager food supplies ran out. The mother of the child pleaded: 'Please dear child leave your room' but the child refused. When you returned to the village you found out the child died of starvation.

Spoiler: Ending C (click to show)(click to hide)

The Child was happy with the kind gift and ran off with the flute. As he took off the other children cursed at him. When he returned home to show the flute to his parents he discovered their dead bodies. As he ran out crying he dropped the flute behind him. The flute was burried beneath the sand, no one would ever play it again.

Spoiler: Ending D (click to show)(click to hide)

You shared the flute among the children, giving each of them a chance to play it. As the soothing music faded the flute had cursed all the children. Slowly the curse drained the life and joy out of any child who played it until they were emotionless husks doomed to wander a dying world for eternity until their bones turned to dust.

Spoiler: Ending E (click to show)(click to hide)

You kept the flute and started playing it. The children acted as though they didn't mind and danced to the music. After you left they quickly ran off to the village chief to accuse you of abusing them. At the village entrance a mob was waiting, armed with torches and spears. They pierced your heart and set your body ablaze.

give back to B, encourage B to let C have it and encourage A to teach C how to play it while B makes more flutes for all of them

tell B that since it was his first try, it's kind of shitty anyway and his next one will be way better and then he can keep the better one

They want to make it so characters like Aloy, Abby, etc can no longer be created and every game and character will be like SB and Eve.

Underrated post.  Nier is so good.

[Steven Snell]

The whole Abby/Aloy vs Eve/2B discussion is so disingenuous. The majority of games released lately look more like Abby and Aloy rather than the latter. So your argument really boils down to every game character should be more like Abby/Aloy and no Eve's/2B's at all to please your trans self confidence issues/Morrigan not wanting to compete with good looking women.

[Propagandhim]

Child C's hilariously poor argument should tip you off that this is likely some conservative or libertarian claptrap.

Stupid ass kid never learned to overlay some meta narrative about oppression into his case for the flute.  Rationalizing need based on circumstance is a poor argument until you invoke some racial scapegoat systemically systemitizing you.  Dumb fuck kid.

I would give the flute to Eve/2B and just enjoy watching them use it

[Vertigo]

Are people on Reee the "average person”? As we know they love sexualising digital characters

https://www.resetera.com/threads/do-you-think-the-average-person-googles-a-characters-age-before-they-start-thirsting-over-them.839934/

If we're talking about anime and games most of their ages are largely arbitrary and likely decided long after they've finalized the design

I don't know that the average person thirsts over cartoons,  but for the ones that do, I would imagine they'd use context clues from the media they are in right? Like if it's a show/comic about high schoolers, you'd assume they were kids.

Lol Ree has many, usually queer or ‘lesbian” focused game and cartoon threads where people are thirsting over characters. Splatoon seems to attract a fair amount of them. RedMercury playing it rather coy. 

yes, but to make sure they aint too old

too many 60 year old men have broken my heart

Is Fat4all the most unfunny ‘character’ on Reeee? he doesn’t even give us endless unintended entertainment like Planetsmasher Fat is just unfunny post after unfunny post.

what the fuck, nepenthe? people like child C actually exist, and WOULD make a similar kind of argument

if it's a poor argument, then what would you like them to have said instead which would be a good one, from someone in the same life situation?

or can no proper argument be made for them, considering practically everyone has a gut instinct that B or even A are more deserving?

[No. 1 Boss Jocker]

I would explain to all three children that flutes are bad because of their association with nazis like Wagner and von Karajan.

We all know Nepenthe thinks a strong argument is when a stated belief is bulwarked by those really big, lofty ideas found in those books on the stands at the front of Barnes and Noble that all the white women flock to.  You know, the real heavy hitting stuff written by big intellectuals like Ibram X Kendi who couldn't produce a single paper at his 43 million dollar "research" center.

And just to be clear about why the studies were considered 'insufficient'.

Not quite sure how you're meant to double blind test puberty blockers. It's gonna be pretty obvious when one group is on placebos.

That wasn't even the actual Cass Review, but rather a York or McMaster (can't remember which) literature review.

I was talking to my brother and he was like "yeah, Wrestlemania let's go". I said I'm not watching that shit (watched the Cody match through...ways...) and he asked me why not. I said I refuse to support the company after all that Vince stuff and there still being people in power that likely knew. His response? "Pffft, I don't care about that stuff".

That's the end of it, people legitimately just do not care about it. There's the product in front of them and that's what matters.

I feel at least your brother is honest with himself.

User Banned (1 Month): Dismissing Concerns of Transphobia over a Series of Posts

And he's doing that by saying trans men, beyond their chosen identities, still have "a pussy". That's transphobic (alongside some very ingrained toxic masculinity and misogyny shit), regardless if it was intentionally meant to be transphobic or not. It's through making the comparison that makes it transphobic.

If it is really transphobic to simply acknowledge there are men who have vaginas (which is a factual statement devoid of any criticism), I will concede.
