What discussion you know you are on the wrong side of? (lemmy.ml)

Maybe you haven't been convinced by a good enough argument. Maybe you just don't want to admit you are wrong. Or maybe the chaos is the objective, but what are you knowingly on the wrong side of?

In my case: I don't think any games are obliged to offer an easy mode. If developers want to tailor a specific experience, they don't have to dilute it with easier or harder modes that aren't actually interesting and/or anything more than poorly done numbers adjustments. BUT I also know that for the people that need and want them, it helps a LOT. But I can't really accept making the game worse so that some people get to play it. They wouldn't actually be playing the same game after all...

Wow, this should be downvoted more.

conceded on say trans issues or whatever

What if we conceded on your rights or whatever?

Plus the idea that trans rights lost Democrats the election is ridiculous. There were zero trans speakers in the DNC, and Harris did cater to transphobes by saying she will go with state laws.

So the question remains, who else are you willing to throw under the bus because you think that their rights are too edgy?

Utilitarian is not what you think it is. Your comment just shows a complete lack of empathy for people living in the same social space as you.

I think people who think that the rights of any group's rights is "too much" to appease and appeal to a society of oppressors are complicit to the oppression.
