I'm an upvoter, but some of us may be fearful of you going into a potentially dangerous field and/or reproducing patriarchal ideas in your potential customers as well as reproducing the notion that becoming a cam girl is a fun idea in this patriarchal climate. In all the feminist literature I've read, though, shaming, gaslighting or traumatizing individual practitioners of sex-work or adjacent work was never presented as a good or feasible idea, and I assume you're aware of the risks and are doing it despite not having a need for money, so I support you here.

Our conditions aren't conducive to maintaining a proper state of mind. After having been put through the barbaric, traumatic education typical to the west, I can understand why people foster a belief that education is bad by default. Like those put through conversion therapy who develop a disdain for psychologists. Or those wronged by their government who become anarchists. All three have applied to me in the past. When one is a victim of poor education and trauma, getting them to see the truth can become an extremely delicate act.

You could be really smart AND have a lot of growing up to do, and I think this is true for many adults as well.

I agree that children are actively stupefied by propaganda. They're also stupefied by poor education and hegemonic abuse from teachers, parents, employers, etc, and they then may go on to reproduce this. Our world needs to fundamentally change before we can see and gauge the true potential of children, I'd say.

I have indeed, thank you.

Funny. Last time I was in one of these threads, I was asked what game I was looking forward to. It was long enough ago that my answer was "BoTW 2." My answer to the current question? Tears of The Kingdom.

This is one of my favorite games of all time, so I may be biased. The game portrays Arstotzka as a flawed country in decline yet still better for its people than every other country on the map. Seeing how the game takes place in the 80s, and that there's a revolutionary group who wishes to combat the corrupt and greedy and bring Arstotzka back to its prime, I'd say it tries to represent the declining Soviet Union.

I've played the Witcher 3 and can confirm there's also massive amounts of spoken dialogue. Every quest has different dialogue and there are hundreds of them.
