>2015: rightwingers and centrists rage about liberals in geek media because feminists are annoying about cheese cake in comics and booth babes at E3>2016: "you will own nothing and you will be happy" is pushed by the private sector and centrists think it's about socialism >2026: socialists work to defend gamers and ownershipHow did this happen?
>>544667697"Right wing leadership" doesnt represent the right wing.We could compile a laundry list of examples
>>544668066What do you mean? In this context, rightwingers and libertarians would be on the side of removing physical media. Consumer protections that force companies to act against their profit seeking are socialist.
>>544668584your context is shallow and narrow
>>544668584"i don't want the shit i paid for to be made artificially unplayable" isn't "communism", either. not when devs get tax funded bailouts after their stock tanks when it's found that "our game only works online" is found to be a lie 2 days after launch
>>544667697Retards really think purchasing a subscription is the same as buying the game
>>544668716I'm not saying it's communism, I'm saying protecting consumers against the "you will own nothing and you will be happy" private sector has been supported by socialists when centrists thought the WEF quote was communism. The rightwing and centrist libertarians don't have solutions in situations like these.
My ancestor
>>544668584You're saying this as if the modern right has any values or policy beyond fuck kikes and niggers
>>544667697I hope gaming is destroyed.
>>544669111Consolidating power away from consumers is rightwing. Stomping out consumer advocacy and protections is rightwing. It's why there's an emphasis on the stock market being the economy on the right. Ethnonationalists may be right leaning, but it's the same system of narrow preference. The left aims to expand protections to consumers and immigrants, the right aims to consolidate them away in favor of whatever ethnic group and shareholders.
>>544668584Profits are completely meaningless when Blackrock compensates all your losses as long as you add gay niggers to your game
>>544670035Studios have been shutting down and going through mass layoffs. If profits didn't mean anything, they wouldn't be going through the motions of eliminating physical media.
>>544668998I don't understand why people would even argue against customer protection like it's inherently assumed or inferred.Relying on the market to correct itself is inherently low iq.
>>544670129Studios are closing down because it's cheaper to outsource games to jeets and AI, not because they ran out of money printing disks
>>544668584I don't think libertarians would necessarily fit here because they oppose drm, speak for customer choice, and want independence from corporate convention and the meme "right wingers" you're talking about are just liberals from 10 years ago
>>544668066You are saying Trump doesnt represent the rightwing?
>>544670467Libertarians support the freedom of corporations. They can't make a compelling argument against gaming companies doing these things because they are in line with libertarian philosophy. Libertarians as consumers can protest all they want, that's the invisible hand, but they need to build a mass movement of consoomers that needs to remain culturally consistent and in lock step while shutting down "socialist" policy that would help them. All while they hand more power to corporations to work against them.
>>544670469>the guy allowing 6 million legal poopjeets to stay doesnt represent the right wing?Ya think?
>>544667697It will fail because the jews won't allow it, just like last time. A bill like this was proposed in California and shut down IMMEDIATELY and that's california, the land where this shit should be an easy win.
Point?PS5 jailbreaked games out there for free, PC already showed that this is total defeat and the only way is to service quality which never happens because it would mean that corpos lost.And turning PS5 into bricks also not an option.
>>544671066>the jewsMost of the companies aren't jewish. Why bring up jews when this is just general profit seeking?
>>544671330>Most of the companies aren't jewishLolLmao
>>544668584No they are pro competition in the marketplace, that doesn't mean supportive of anticonsumer practicesRegulation is allowed under capitalism, it's not black and white. If no competitor replaces them with superior products make laws. Whatever.
>>544667697Socialists didn't do shit. The kikes behind MPU are just trying to coopt the issue to snag some gullible retards. Fuck those longnoses.
>>544671470Do you mean "spiritually jewish"?>>544671486That's why I've been saying libertarian and not capitalist. Libertarians are more against the government taking action against companies.
>>544671686>Do you mean "spiritually jewish"?Just because there's a jeet or a Jap as a frontman CEO doesn't mean that there isn't a jew behind the curtain pulling his strings.
>>544671794That's the infinite "not real capitalism" hack. You will always have invisible jews to blame for very normal, easily understood profit motives. Anyone can be a shareholder, anyone can be a jew.
>>544668584Yeah, because socialists are the guys know for being big into private property rights.Your attitude of "my thing good, your thing bad" is a little immature.
>>544672140We know that they're "investors" and "shareholders". We know that they threaten to destroy companies unless they follow their instructions. Stop pretending to be a kike.
>>544667697Because socialists always loved theatre and performance, this is an excellent example of pretending to help.
Video games are for children.
>>544669952You are literally consolidating power out of fear of consolidated power god I hate commies so much
>>544667697It was about 100 years ago when I read through the Steam TOS and noticed that it explicitly states that you don't own your games, but rather, you are acquiring a license in your account to access those games, which can be revoked any time that Valve wants to. So the recent controversy about not owning your Steam games is weird to me.
>>544668779subscriptions should be outlawed
>>544672140Actual libertarians don’t make cultural hegemony arguments, that’s everybody else’s bullshit. You think you’re smarter because you’re the same as the racist but you just don’t think it’s about race you think there’s some other group of people you merely need to sequester to fix everything or that people need to be retrained to be something different. Ancap is bonafide let it rip anarchy, we aren’t faggots trying to edit or perfect society, we are trying to not pay taxes. And yes it’s not real capitalism and if you’ll ever admit it to yourself all your criticisms of capitalism are criticisms of government.
>>544672825Shareholders exist outside government though. They can function under an ancap anarchy just fine, they may be even more profitable. The private armies and security needed to maintain that system can take a cut of the profits, just like how it works in this system where the wealthiest pay the most in taxes.And critiques of capitalism are critiques of government, that's true. The left knows that the freer corporations got, the more money was available to influence government. Government is complicit if misused and it can be a solution if used correctly.
>>544672262>we knowWell, then you should have no problen proving it, right?
>>544672473I'm not a commie, you're defining capitalism as also supporting some government regulations and then rushing to call that communism too. You aren't providing ancap solutions to this, just raging at capitalist solutions. I get that you're an anarchist, but you're showing me anarchists don't have solutions to these ownership problems.
>>544667697stop killing games failed in eu parliament, this will be something similar
>>544673849>hoffman>Pritzker>ScharfThese are the immediately obvious ones lmao
