You couldn’t make Blazing Saddles today because you’d need way more time than that.

I don’t get it. What’s wrong here?

I hate Illinois nazis

Honestly, with what the poor bastard has been through, I’d be surprised if he hasn’t been crucified.

I’d argue Rise of Lyric was worse, because 06 at least had the potential to be good had they finished it before release. But alas, twas never meant to be.

Silver is a real Sonic character who has existed since 2006.

I can’t think of a single situation that would call for such a thing.

Why the fuck would any artistic person (read: the people who buy Adobe products) want to train something you threaten to replace them with? That’s the most idiotic marketing strategy I’ve ever seen!

I didn’t know that, thank you.

Goku and Piccolo tried to get a driver’s license in a filler episode of Z. The only thing they accomplished was a ton of destroyed vehicles.

Bojack, we’ve been over this. You have to be better than that.

Sonic would beat the shit out of Trump without a second thought. He isn’t a Freedom Fighter for nothing.

I never understood why he would say that to begin with. It’s not like his brand of comedy was ever particularly edgy. Obviously the “people are too sensitive these days” thing is stupid, but it felt extra strange coming from him.

I didn’t say anything about communists. I said I missed being able to interact with people who shared my hobbies. I just want to grill talk about cartoons and video games.

Also, I was sold on Lemmy because they told me it was an user owned alternative to reddit, which was going tits up at the time. “It’s a communist website.” Is not what they told me to get me over here.

Absolutely. There’s just fuck all to do here. I used reddit for fan communities a lot, and most of them stayed behind. (Unless you’re a trekkie I guess. Then you’re set.)

But in the end it has to be this way

comparing their shitiness with Blizzard’s is like comparing apples to oranges.

That’s… what I said.

My point is supposed to be that Lemmy acts as a though they’re the devil, when in reality they’re just the regular amount of corporate shitty. All of what you said is true, and I’m not trying to convince you it isn’t. It just feels surreal how every comment in here is the same, like it’s the same person behind every username. I get no sense of individuality here, ya know ?

Here’s the difference though: most people outside of Lemmy don’t care about Nintendo’s copyright lawsuits enough that it’s the only thing they talk about whenever they hear the name. The fact that every comment expresses the same thing is the part that feels like a hive mind. Some criticism of a large corporation is one thing, but how strongly Lemmy holds that opinion feels cultish. Blizzard’s leadership protects sex abusers and Ubisoft has had a work culture many describe as nightmarish for decades. Seeing Nintendo put on that level for something not even unique to them makes me think some of you don’t know what nuance or perspective are.

I thought the leaker saw those and decided to not reveal too many details other than they exist? There’s a sentence about it in the article.

I swear to god, the Lemmy hive mind is even more intense than their predecessor.
