It's almost like the system is designed to prevent the working class from gaining any headway while consistently capitulating to the whims of capital.
The intrinsic failure of arbitrarily hierarchical systems. When the working class demands change, it can't happen because [arbitrary barriers we blindly obey] while anytime the owning-class demands it, suddenly we must make compromises for the benefit of the "county's economy"
Never forget the state and the economy are intrinsically linked. The state is a tool of the ruling class to oppress the working class. It is fundamental to the system itself.
A patch left alone will become grasses again because biodiversity in the area has been eliminated and the non native grasses will out-compete native plants.
To return an area to nature requires considerable effort to ensure natives can reestablish in an area and keep invasives out.
As for walking barefoot, use paths or don't go barefoot. Your desire to walk barefoot does not trump the need for a healthy ecosystem.
You're operating on the false premise that a decent wage and decent working conditions are mutually exclusive and that is the primary flaw in your entire argument.
All states, by the nature of hierarchical authority structures, will always seek to oppress those they have authority over in order to maintain that social power.
Socialist states are not immune to this function of systemic structure.
Didn't say it didn't happen in other systems. I'm saying the assumption that capitalism is the best system just because it's the one we currently have is simple minded and self fulfilling logic.
I suggest you do stop this discussion to educate yourself if this wasn't readily evident for you.
The problem with capitalism is that it only benefits a small ruling elite who claim private ownership over the means of production to the point it oppressed all other systems, regardless of if they were better or worse for society as a whole.
The friction in DD2 is exactly why I loved the game. It didn't hold the hand. You had to pay attention to the world and actually immerse yourself in it.
It made it feel as if you weren't just playing a game but were roleplaying a character.
Statists typically don't understand how the state works to reinforce the oppression of the capitalist system. They naively think the system will save them from itself.
Also, it isn't that big of a deal in a turn based tactics game to have all the animations be silky smooth or responsive like it is in games with real-time combat. The quality doesn't directly affect the play experience for the most part.
A turn based game at 30 frames plays the same as it does at 60 or 120. It only doesn't look as good. Can't say the same for other genres.
I mean, it does function. Just not for the benefit of the working class.
Petty concessions do not obscure the overt imperialist oppression.
"I don't care about the fact we support genocide so long as I get better quality of life."
What a fucked mentality. Go find your solidarity with the oppressed.

Nah we celebrate the death of fascists around here.

are you really that ignorant? Have you failed that much in basic, elementary education or are you just intentionally being stupid?
It is times like this I'm so happy I have aphantasia.
Yup. This is why we were trying to get it increased to 15 back in fucking 2011.
Today we need it to be nearly double that.

Stop with this capitalist realism nonsense.

2016 me would feel so vindicated right about now.
Man, I hate being right. Fuck everyone who said I was just being a Doomer.

FIFY.
This is some dogshit bootlicking mentality.
Sort your priorities, mate, and quit carrying water for your oppressors.
Not worth buying with how they have treated the dev team with these lay offs but it's a perfectly reasonable game to pirate if one wants to play it.
