See, I feel like both Sci-Fi and Fantasy have enough different that the should be sperate genres. I think the combining them is to the detriment of both. I can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve given up looking for something new to watch because I click Sci-Fi and every listing is Lord of the Rings.
I guess I’m the odd one out then. I’m a huge Sci-Fi fan. Ender’s Game still stands as my favorite book after all these years. But I’m not too crazy about fantasy. I’ve bounced off of books, shows, and movies that my friends and family loved. They just seemed to be mediocre stories with fantasy paint on it and people who like Wizards were able to gloss over the holes.
It’s not unheard of for people to not be interested in the other genre. But those people are outnumbered by consumers who just want the new thing.
Not sure if I said it here(I’m a few days removed from my original comment) but political beliefs NEED nuance. If you’re entire political identity can be summed up by pulling one of two levers…then you’re dumb.
And you may notice, I didn’t say that it was. I said I found it hard to feel empathy for PC players as they stand on a literal mountain of PC only games.
This time around I voted Harris. Didn’t actually think she’d win but at least she wasn’t going to take a shit all over the things my Grandfather fought his way out of Poland for.
I find it extremely hard to empathize with PC players from the mountains of PC only games that have never come to consoles.
And who said I voted for Trump? I wouldn’t vote for someone who wants to dismantle the country and and destroy the democracy that it’s built on. You are making a fuck ton of assumptions that you have no real link for based on someone else you don’t like. Pocket your biases and try to actually listen to people before you start pounding the table.
First, I’m not religious. So I don’t have some sort of “moral” opposition to homosexuality. Follow laws, pay your taxes and have at the “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”.
I’m sorry that a bunch of Christian radicals have soured your idea of a political thought process that valued personal freedoms and lowered governmental interference in its citizens lives. Marriage isn’t something the government should be involved in the first place. The government shouldn’t have a voice in whether or not people get divorced.
Fiscal responsibility, lowered government involvement with citizens day-to-day lives, and a focus on supporting your own citizenry in your own infrastructure are not things that care about who you love, what gender you identify as, or what sort of religion or not you want to practice. These things were added after the fact.
Yes, I’m a pretty right leaning guy. I have a long time friend who is a socialist, another friend who is apolitical, another who’s a gay liberal, and a wife who’s pretty centrist. Politics don’t stop people from having other interests in common.
It has been my experience that the closer you get to the CEO position the more a person believes “I don’t have to know how to do the task, I just have to employ someone who does!”
Ehhhhhh. There’s nuance. Personally I feel if all of your political ideas can be summed up by pulling one of two levers then your not smart enough to understand politics. I have ideas and stances that land on both sides of the political spectrum.
Except I was banned for being right of center.
Good. I hope Reddit tears itself apart. After having three accounts banned because I was better at insults than the one trying to haze me I think that site had run its course.
I feel that Sci-Fi and Fantasy are different. Especially enough to be seen as two different genres.
