It's about the patriarchy. No joke. A guy floating around being coddled by the world and not having to do anything at all. A society where women are expected to sacrifice themselves, and where all but one woman love the thought of it, eagerly awaiting their "death". His coddling leads to more...

Literally all the woman did was give them an idea. The entire presentation of the idea, the art, programming and every single other thing is done by them. I really don't understand how 8% of the profits for an idea, something very solid to put on the CV for several women and a large amount of...

Don't see how it's racist for the continent with a 99,9% white population to be ruled by white people. It kind of makes sense to me.

That's the dumbest, most psychopathic way to handle a problem like Israel's... If you just keep bombing Gaza and killing thousands of people every decade, you will just continue breeding enemies. The terrorists firing rockets today? They're the kids who lost their families in the last few years...

I expected them to do something about it because it's a pretty huge thing. Like, so huge that even their propaganda should have got them to do something, since it's nowhere near a major terrorist attack (Boston marathon doesn't count, I mean like 9/11) and it's so clearly against every single...

Yes, and then there's the hundreds of young people who sacrificed their lives or got permanent injuries in the actual revolution when they stood up against the (literal) police state. This isn't Egyptian society though, it's a corner of Egyptian society. The rest of it is still learning what...

Well, at least the Egypt part of what you said is complete BS. Freedom isn't a major part of Egyptian culture. Our celebrations of the independence war with the brits are absolutely tiny, and barely focus on the whole "freedom" part of it at all. The same goes for most aspects of Egyptian...

Yeah, because you're a standard issue citizen flying far below the radar, but what if it was someone more important? Like, let's say there's a period where journalists are really screwing the government over by finding out some awful stuff the government wants to keep secret, so they decide...

I am honestly completely taken aback by this. America is basically the only nation in the world that considers freedom a huge part of its national identity, so much so that they've named themselves "the land of the free". And then PRISM happened. A secret police secretly spying on probably...

What's really crappy about all this is that everyone who's going "THEY TOOK MY MONEY AND ALL I GOT WAS SADNESS AND WAITING! I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM AGAIN!" will probably buy the next EA game that interests them. I was hopeful the first couple of times I saw companies take their...
