We shouldn’t blame others for things we do not like. There is no shame in just not liking something.

    Finding a Middle Ground Episode 12: Panic Buying

    For those who live in areas that have natural disasters, whatever you do, please do not panic buy. The reason for that is because we need to make sure that those who really need it can get the resources that they really need. If it is your natural disaster season in your area just buy one of each item and treat each day as if disastrous weather might be coming. In other words, don’t panic buy,

    Finding a Middle Ground Episode 11: Yes, Eastern Fans can be Jerks Too

    I feel that when those on the right say that toxic fans are only a western problem, it is major gaslighting. Eastern toxic people are what you might what you would call two-faced. They are fake nice. If you can read or speak Japanese you might be familiar with the word “oshi.” I could be wrong but that is the word for toxic Japanese fandoms. When the mask is off the Eastern fans can either be

    Finding a Middle Ground Episode 10: Why Representation Matters and Other News

    Today I have stumbled upon a certain users complaint claiming that the show runners of Dragon Ball are spitting on the creators grave. To me, in my opinion it sounds like two sides of the same story. Now don’t get me wrong Dragon Ball fans are indeed toxic and the creators himself have done things in his life that have indeed enraged fans such as adding new forms for Goku that fans did not like

    Finding a Middle Ground Episode 9: My Opinion On Culture Wars/Anti Consumer

    In all honesty the culture war/ anti consumer is pretty much the same thing. They come off as these whiney children that expect gaming comping to tailor the game in exactly the way they want. Further more those that whine about anti consumer are whiney too and have zero idea of how business works. It sounds to me that anti consumer just sounds inconviences to them. I am old school and back in my

    Finding a Middle Ground Episode 8: Growing up With Audience

    A lot of people seem to think that growing up with the audiences means that the show needs to be darker and edgiest. I do not think that should be the case especially when the franchise was childish to begin with. To me growing up with the audience does not mean throwing away the childish wonder of the game but instead being more mature and addressing more mature topics in a way that we all

Finding a Middle Ground Episode 9: My Opinion On Culture Wars/Anti Consumer · 7:33pm October 2nd

In all honesty the culture war/ anti consumer is pretty much the same thing. They come off as these whiney children that expect gaming comping to tailor the game in exactly the way they want. Further more those that whine about anti consumer are whiney too and have zero idea of how business works. It sounds to me that anti consumer just sounds inconviences to them. I am old school and back in my day whenever we had problems with our Game Boy Advances we would fix it ourselves. I do not think people understand that the decisions that companies make is not really anti consumer at all. In fact instead of whining about it, why don’t you instead make your own company to compete against these corpos. If you don’t do these so called anti consumer practices that you think are anti consumer, I think you will be in for a shock when you find yourself stuck in a rock and a hard place. I think the real reason behind those complaining about anti consumer is the fact that most people do not want to make sacrifices for other people. The same can be said for the culture wars. In my honest opinion it is idiotic, I am sorry that the game does not share your view but that is just life sometimes. We are not always going to agree on everything and it would be weird if we did. Not only that but just because some rando who works on the game says something online, it still is not an attack on you because many people worked on the game and they are not some sort of hive mind like everyone wants to believe. It is not an attack on you no matter how hard you try to spin it and I do not wanna hear “well I paid for the game, the company has to meet my expectations.” Well I am sorry to say but the world does not revolve around you and a lot of the times people’s expectations are way too high, it was not the companies fault that the game was overhyped but the doing of your own making. I encourage anyone who cries culture wars or anti consumer to create their own company. I can safely say that not only would it be a great learning experience but I wouldn’t be surprised if you change your tune after working for a while. What irks me is that some of these gamers expect to be treated like royalty. The same people who cry anti consumer/ culture wars are also the same people who don’t want to hear another persons opinion and shuts them out.

The culture war is also called class warfare. It boils down to the rich and the powerful want more, and they're willing to use their money and influence to achieve it, often at the expense of the laborer class, and minorities(ethnic, religious and/or sexual).

Huh, I guess that you learn something new everyday. I always felt that these people came off as privileged.
