“Let People Enjoy Things,” like “Let People Hate Things,” is a nothing phrase—an abdication of saying anything substantive, dressed up as generosity. Its real function is to discourage any kind of thinking.
Critics shouldn't worry about crowd management.

Person: Arielle, why do you always justify and overexplain every little thing when writing about a game?
Me: I experienced Gamer-Gate 2.0 and rabid fans in my YouTube comment section.
Swen, by now you should know the difference between a comment that's left in good faith and one that isn't.

As the daughter of an immigrant and Holocaust survivor, fuck ICE.
The fact that my dad has to see a modern-day Gestapo terrorize, kill, and enact their brutality is heartbreaking
The timeline we live in is terrifying.

Have I been playing Wuchang Fallen Feathers for the past hour and staying up until three? Yes. Yes, I have. Love this game, the accessibility, however, is not it.

Oh, make no mistake: they‘re scared. But that is what makes their continued resistance so brave. Bravery is not the simple absence of fear. More often, bravery is being scared out of your mind, but pushing on anyways.
And it will be the bravery of these people that will ultimately prevail.

This administration is cooked. Literally no one is scared of them.

The difference in comments is astounding. Both from different IGN guides I did.
First comment, EW. Second comment a genuine question. What a night and day difference the comment section can be.
