Not arguing against the substance of the article, but I can’t help but wonder if this is the best way to address this issue. Measles was eradicated from the US but is now back and has claimed lives purely due to vaccine skepticism. I just worry that yet another article criticizing the FDA for pushing drugs that aren’t safe/effective will do more harm than good at this point. Idk, I just sincerely question if now is the time to give americans more reasons not to trust medical professionals. (Again, not arguing with the substance of the article—very disappointing and disturbing that FDA is doing this—but just concerned about the time, manner, and place of this criticism.)

Guess I’ll die then?

Who fucking cares

My first thought as well. As a gay man, you couldn’t pay me to step foot in that country.

What are you, a cop?

Yeah it’s called online propaganda. Russia is known for spreading propaganda via social media. The same thing is happening in the US, and probably across the “West”. Russia is using propaganda to convince young people that the West/US are bad, and dammit, it’s working wonders. Young people are gobbling it up in droves.

These complaints are FUCKING INSANE. When the Wii Dropped in 2007, adjust for inflation, that baby comes out to $400 today. Mario Galaxy, Wii’s launch title, was $50. Adjust for inflation, that comes to $77 today.

Also, the Switch 2 is basically the 2007 version of a Wii PLUS a Nintendo SP. The Switch 2, on the numbers, is perfectly in-line with Nintendo’s prices for the past TWO DECADES.

These prices are fucking consistent. Inflation has skyrocketed, and on the whole, wages have kept pace with inflation. So, these prices make sense.

And like, I hate capitalism. I hate enshitification. I hate corporate greed. But why tf are people acting like Nintendo isn’t a corporation whose fundamental purpose is to create profit for shareholders? People are literally blaming Capitalism on Nintendo, and it’s fucking annoying. I just want to play Kirby in PEACE.

No one cares

Same… not trying to be too critical too soon, but I was kinda underwhelmed (especially given this game’s development history)
