Bonus points for banning Trump from his own funeral, like "I want you specifically to know I hate you"

Honestly that was how I felt as well. I remember being hyped the play bl2 and then getting bored doing meaningless quests over and over. Like am I supposed to feel anything for these people asking me to retrieve parts over and over? At least do some sort of quest where they can shoot people. I thought the combat system was better but I wasn't compelled to play through it

I'd argue James bond as a franchise is basically a hypermasculine fantasy and the gadgets are pretty much a tech fantasy within it. Breaking laws of physics is completely unrealistic, but the point I was making was that you don't need to do any of these things- you could write a story about how you went to the gym and broke a treadmill (even though you didn't) and it would be fiction. The bar to fiction is not that high.

What you're saying is sound and I agree the plot not being real is fiction; the only problem is you said fiction required unrealistic elements and most people see "unrealistic" as basically fantasy

I wonder if I'm just getting old but didn't this sort of thing happen in his first run? I recall even maga supporters couldn't get dates

What's funny is that historically, it's usually a maga moron who does something violent. Even the guy who shot Trump voted Republican

I'm referring to this review from NLM looking at 49 papers to investigate the effects of gaming on women. It is possible to have multiple articles that contradict each other

Me arguing something can be harmful for society doesn't mean I'm arguing it has to be abolished in its entirety. I'm not sure why you think everything has to be black and white since obviously there's room for artistic use- remember you are the only one who thought that, or perhaps it just wasn't obvious for you. And can you explain how unrealistic body standards is not bad for society? It isn't far fetched seeing young people compare to beauty standards they are bombarded with. It doesn't only happen in video games but in tons of visual media.

It is possible to have a realistic story in fiction. For example, Mad Men is a tv series that's pretty grounded in history but the characters and everything that happens to them are the product of the writers and their research. It's not a documentary, it's fiction, but quite realistic.

Have you ever read historical fiction? Stories like jane eyre are not real but they're sensible. A story can be fiction and realistic. You can write a short story based on stuff you've researched and seen and it's still fiction.

Who said that was a requirement? It's still a fact that it causes harm

I'm not sure why this is being downvoted because setting unrealistic body standards is absolutely terrible for society
