  • Meh.

    Even if 90% of theft is greed and meant to be resold for profit, I’ll still ignore it for the 10% that are stealing out of extreme desperate necessity.

    We live in a country that has 100 billionaires that are undeserved and unearned, arguably. You can become a Millionaire solely by making YouTube videos stuffing your face full of fast food and gaining 500lbs, as a freakshow that gets lots of likes/subscribes. All while public school teachers are on food stamps and infrastructure around the country is degrading and not being improved, etc., etc.

    The system we have is trash. Obviously I don’t support stealing from the little guy, but theft from large corporations I’ll always support. Large corporations inherently steal from the poor, directly and indirectly. It’s inherent to our capitalist system.

    I support the sentiment of the meme.





  • Yeah I mostly agree with you. Except there was plot and lore in 2016, it was just minimalist as you said, but more importantly it was executed really well. It had the “doom” feel. In addition to awesome gameplay and soundtrack.

    Eternal was great for the gameplay, and even an improvement in some ways. The lore and plot was ridiculous though. Way overdone, didn’t feel like doom.

    I say go back to 2016 style with the gameplay improvements of eternal.

    I feel like this is easy to answer and I’m not sure why the question comes up so often.

    People have jobs and get payed salaries to both build and maintain houses/apartments. Rent payments would go to pay the actual people that did the building / do the maintenance. Nobody makes profit off this. No landlord, no investor, no profit. The money goes to cover building costs, then maintenance. Easy peasy.

    We have things like this. People build and maintain our public roads, schools, water/sewer systems, fire departments, military, etc.

    No profits. No landlord gets free money for renting. No wallstreet investor gets free money for selling at high market values, etc.

    Obviously, decisions have to be made about supply/demand, areas where lots of people want to live and all that. So what? Let’s make those decisions intelligently instead of greed and profit driven.
