That's cool.
I love the game and I'm going to keep playing it. Keep your hate for BSG and stop demonizing people for wanting to play. Stop demonizing people who upgraded. What they choose to do with their money is their own business. Their own boundaries are their own business.
This is an extremely hot topic right now so it's fresh and people are up in arms over it. But all the posts and comments I see from people saying "if you're playing the game you're a horrible person" is so hypocritical.
- You're writing all that stuff on a platform that sells your personal information to the highest bidder. And you continue to do so. Reddit used to protect child molesters and rapists under the guise of "Freedom". They were forced to stop and had a complete corporate restructuring because of it. You're still using it despite that.
- Most of you have some sort of streaming service. These companies have notoriously spontaneously changed their TOS so they can charge you more. Some of these services "sell" you media, but then remove it from their library and steal it back from you without reimbursement. You still do business with them.
- Some of you may use multimedia apps like Adobe, who have stolen thousands of copies of their software from us by not supporting the releases they had before subscriptions. They've stolen your copies and won't even let you download them if you want to use them. You still pay regardless.
- Social media takes ownership of everything you post. All of your photos of you, your friends and your family get sold to AI art companies like Midjourney, without your consent. And you continue to use them.
- Petrol companies have been making record profits year after year for decades, and they keep artificially increasing the price, but you need it so you buy it.
I could go on and on about all the unethical businesses and corporations you give money to and support on a daily basis. Every single ISP out there, tobacco companies, fast food restaurants, ICE with their bullshit "I can see you naked" airport scanners in the name of security... Unless you want to live in a log cabin in the middle of the woods, you're going to support unethical companies.
I fully recognize that a line was crossed with you, and fully support the choices you've made based on that. Not everyone has the same lines, and demonizing people who want to continue to play, or people who want to upgrade, doesn't help anybody and only serves to divide this community. Do your thing, fight the big fight, but quit trying to drag me along with you.
For my own stance, I think TUE is shady as fuck, so I'm not upgrading. That's my own line.
