  • I’m going to strongly disagree that Harris’ campaign overly focused on identity politics and specifically trans rights and that was the reason they lost the election.

    IF the party’s support for trans rights was the reason they lost, it would be because the Trump campaign (et. al.) was talking about it, not the Harris campaign.

    I could be wrong, I didnt watch every stump speech or somehow missed the party’s focus for trans rights in every speech I did watch. Feel free to correct me.




  • It was kickstarted a decade ago with release dates which they’ve never kept thanks to a constant modification of what a release looks like - namely splitting the MMO-like Star Citizen out from the single-player blockbuster Squadron 42 - as well as scope bloat. A lot of people originally kickstarted the game (mostly for what we now call Squadron 42 + some multiplayer thing) but now a decade on, the MMO-like Star Citizen is seemingly the priority project and most of the people who are currently funding the game are primarily interested in that.

    After hundreds of millions of dollars of funding, it seems clear that Squadron 42 in particular is in development hell as it still can’t seem to make it to market. Star Citizen, while playable, teeters back and forth from basically unplayable to playable and all “progress” is subject to wipes.
