I'm not really seeing anyone ask the big question here, but the obvious answer is it depends on what you want to play. If certain titles that are your preferred picks are completely unplayable on Linux for whatever reason, then it might be a deal breaker for you. Anti cheat, secure boot, DRM and a myriad of other increasingly restrictive systems are making it impossible for a lot of things to work reliably on Linux. Start with proton db, which is a useful site that can help you check if the games you like actually work on Linux, and if you're still sure, then you can safely make your decision.
I mean this with the best of intentions but please read the room comrade. I feel that I know the thread that has promoted these feelings in you and your comparisons of Tupac and immigrants in the west as representing "western culture" is a insensitive at best and insulting at worst, and I think part of you surely understands that there is something about your own examples that you're not mentioning.
People are dying, yes, it's making every global South comrade here furious, yes, and you'll start hearing statements that may hurt your feelings, but rather than telling us to silence our opinions, maybe take our side and see the failures of your society from our perspectives.
A recurring villain we had for a long time was Wisconom, an unhinged ultraleft who kept evading bans but getting caught and re banned every time. led to the mods running a cheeky manhunt game where they made their own secret alt account and challenged us to identify it, to prove how easy it is to actually run a secret account, which Wisconom never could.
Half a point? This is completely the point! Overwhelmingly the reaction to these two events shows how backward and (frustratingly) indifferent the people of the US have become. As a socialist I don't need to couch my utter disappointment with "well some of them are genuine" to make American comrades feel better. The hard truth is that there is work to be done, and nobody has more of a job to do than the western left in order to fix it.
He's completely on the money this time and I don't understand why it's controversial. The level of outage over this has completely exposed how little the US "left" cares about the lives of non Americans. Even when it's the same regime carrying out both actions, this one completely overshadowed the news and discussion while scores of innocent people in Venezuela were killed within goldfish memory. He's making a remark about the lack of empathy they have for the third world, not condemning them for caring about this incident. Ideological consistency should be something every real leftist follows, and if you see all human lives as equal you would have been a hundred times more aggressive and outraged over Venezuela than what many of these people clearly have shown themselves to be.
This is the next phase for an empire declining in it's rate of profit. The only way for continued growth for the existing model is an economy of conquest, which is why they're committing to spending 1.5 trillion dollars on the military. It's only going to worsen.
Not great, dear American comrade. It's been a while since I've been so full of anger and helplessness towards the imperialist regime, it's hard to keep in mind that not all of the people in the core are evil.
Euro supremicists are so funny, their entire countries are perpetually owned and cucked by the US, but they are somehow still convinced there some bastion of righteousness.
