Yes, people are usually biased towards good things. Congratulations, you figured it out.

I wasn’t arguing with you. I was arguing with the people who were saying there’s something legitimately wrong with it because it’s disingenuous or whatever.

Congratulations, you’re agreeing with me.

I have no idea what point you're trying to make here, so maybe just say it instead of accusing people of not being nuanced or whatever?

The difference is that Omar is good and Biden is bad. That's it. If it was Trump doing a dumb fortnite thing would we be having this same argument?

you're probably right, but if Trump streamed himself playing Among Us it, i think it would raise my opinion of him. and if AOC paid to make a Fortnite event that featured her, it would absolutely lower my opinion of her.

You clearly seem to understand the difference between the Biden campaign and Biden so I don't see why you are starting this whole thing by going after Ilhan Omar as if you don't understand nuance to any degree

I think the difference between the AU thing and the fortnite thing is scripting. We watch AOC and Omar just playing, and clearly not doing something scripted, vs the fortnite even being defined as scripted.

If Biden sat down and played him some fortnite, it would be the same, but better honestly

That youth outreach via video game, which will probably be seen as liberal propaganda because it deals with climate change among other issues, is a positive thing and not something to face palm over.

OK. I disagree because it comes across as a disingenuous "how do you do fellow kids" stunt when it comes from Biden, and even if it's a net good it's still funny to laugh at.

How should Biden do youth outreach? Get AOC and Omar to play video games? Done it. Now what?

I don’t think there’s anything Biden can say or do that wouldn’t be ripped apart as disingenuous by people itt. Maybe he should just stop trying for the youth vote.

Offer them free healthcare, free college, and a livable minimum wage. Those are things the youth are concerned about, not whether grandpa plays video games or not.

And yeah, people are gonna call most things Biden does disingenuous, because he's a very disingenuous guy.

Is it possible to see the humor in something without condemning it?

The Biden thing is silly, but still good, and no one is saying he should not do it. All anyone is saying is that its silly.

For further proof that silly things can be good, I refer you to the Ministry of Silly Walks

To me it makes them more relatable which it's harder to hate someone you understand, you know? The fact Trump doesn't like pets makes him seem less like a likeable person, among other things of course. Lots of things. My god, its full of stars things!

No clue, I know I dont have the stones to end someones life, its why I dont carry weapons. I do know from years of doing knife/gun self defense drills* that the guy who tends to gets out of it alive is the one who draws and stabs/fires with no provocation first. If you can do it great, weapons are for you. If you cant you shouldnt be holding on to something someone will take from you.

I'll be damned if someone hurts my wife, the best person I know, otherwise I'm in the same boat. I'm pretty pacifist and not a particularly skilled fighter.

However, most of my childhood was spent in a capricious and abusive home.

The Nazis will have to take my loving life before I allow them to violate the sanctuary I worked my entire life to secure; and my intent is to make them work for it.

I have a while ago resolved to be a nail if the boot steps on my home.

Sheesh, I just don’t like Fortnite and think it’s lame, that’s all.

Aside from being the main kiddy game right now, Fortnite is super exploitative and basically built to push kids into buying stuff.

And it's spawned a entire generation of e-celebs you've never heard of who, suddenly thrust into having some sort of financial security at age 20, decorate their shoddily built McMansions like a gamer chair, and presumably in the next few years will start spending a lot of money on therapists.
