if there were some way to alleviate all responsibility while retaining purpose in life, then you can bet i'd strive for it
tbh I'm not sure one could find purpose and meaning in life without responsibility.
and perhaps now you see why i'm not too keen on the idea of just allowing this game continue and subjecting tens of millions of new people to it every year

but you are seeing a nation where you can't live a comfortable life without working to afford the resources you need to survive

which is worse
You, at least, aren't one to suggest that life would be better without work at all, are you?
to reiterate nix: from each according to his ability, to each according to his need

the fact of the matter is that some people just aren't cut out for work, which will only become increasingly true with the advent of automation

if you work at all, your incentive for doing so should not be monetary compensation, it should be the knowledge that you're contributing something useful to your society, whether it be food, entertainment, or some other good or service

everyone works for each other

I was just wondering if you were one to believe a life of nothing but leisure, one without responsibility, would be ideal.

Didn't think so.
well, only because we cannot create that kind of world out of thin air (barring total extinction)

if there were some way to alleviate all responsibility while retaining purpose in life, then you can bet i'd strive for it

Even if you had all you need human minds still think life could be better.
hence why we should end it

in fact you could argue it would be better under that perfect communist system because you wouldn't have to make decisions based on what the majority of the market wants and can make decisions based on what you want to create.
I don't see how, as there are games made in our capitalist system are not all casual catering EA/Bungie trash.
he wasn't saying that they don't exist

there would just be more of them

it isn't pointless. it's an attention seeking exercise. and it works really well
i don't need to seek attention on sep7agon.net, i'm pretty good on that front

I do believe there isn't much need or use for a civilian to need a military grade Assault rifle.
How many wars have been fought with an AR-15?
Don't give me that shit. You know what I mean the AR-15 platform is just a civilian verison of the Colt M-16 and M4 chassy
So it's neither military-grade nor an assault rifle, got it.
and that makes it allllllll okay
Yes
No

all right, time to shovel off the last few scraps of the '95 plate

as usual, i don't have a lot to say about any of this stuff, because it's mostly just random garbage that nobody else likes either, yet i'm still obligated to watch in order for me to be able to say "i've seen every anime ever made"



Nurse Angel Ririka SOS (Studio Gallop, 1995, two episodes) I wish I had more to say about these dumb mahou shoujo shows, but they just never offer me very much. 4/10

Catnapped! (Studio Hibari, 1995, completed) This is one of the most obnoxious things I've ever seen, but I'd be lying if I didn't at least somewhat appreciate the imaginative visuals to SOME degree. 2/10

Neighborhood Story (Toei, 1995, one episode) More of the same bullshit, but credit where credit's due to the art style, which is fairly unique by anime standards. You can still tell it was made in Japan, but it's kind of striking all the same. 3/10

Galaxy Fraulein Yuna (J.C.Staff, 1995, one episode) I am now watching OVAs that were released and made to be watched exclusively on old PC-ROM games that nobody played in the mid-90s. I have officially lost control of my life. 2/10

Mahou Shoujo Pretty Sammy (AIC, 1995, one episode) This one's kinda interesting. It's an OVA that "recasts" characters from the Tenchi Muyo! series, giving them entirely different roles in a totally disconnected(?) show. Almost as if they weren't just cartoons, but real people playing characters. I've never seen anything like that before. Points for originality, I suppose. 3/10

Battle Skipper (Artmic, 1995, one episode) The only thing I'm skipping here is the rest of this OVA. 1/10

Hyper Doll (Triangle Staff, 1995, one episode) 1/10

Sorcerer Hunters (Xebec, 1995, one episode) 1/10

Kouryuu no Mimi: Mina no Shou (Unknown studio, 1995, one episode) 1/10

Gotou ni Naritai. (Unknown studio, 1995, completed) 4/10



the last things i have to watch now from this year:

Virtua Fighter. I'm saving this one for last, because not only is it based on one of my all-time favorite fighting game franchises, it was also released on my birthday. And it doesn't even look half-bad, honestly. So hopefully, by watching this one last, I'll have ended 1995 on a positive note.

Red Hawk - Weapon Of Death. This is a movie, and it looks very very bad, so I've been putting it off for a long time.

Neon Genesis Evangelion + Death & Rebirth + End of Evangelion. Given that many people still regard Eva as one of the most important shows ever, if not the best ever created, I'm not opposed to giving it another chance. I didn't watch either of the two films last time, because I simply didn't care to, but I'll go ahead and watch them too. I definitely don't expect to completely turn around on this show, having disliked it initially, but it certainly wouldn't hurt to get to the bottom of why people seem to like it so much.

And then Majackou, Gunsmith Cats, The Silent Service, Gakkou no Yuurei, and Shin Kaitei Gunkan.

Then I move on to 1996.

Pokemon exists because of Capitalism
No, it doesn't. It exists because some person in Japan had an idea, and nothing about communism, or any other economic system, prevents people from having ideas (it in fact promotes having ideas).
Late-stage capitalism is the reason you can sit around bitching about how much you hate it on a dead forum while being a complete and utter waste of human life.
Nope, my first amendment rights actually have absolutely nothing to do with "late-stage capitalism."

That might actually be the most unrelated thing mentioned so far.

Try harder, but don't strain yourself.

Cause I'm not fucking with anybody personally affected by it.
i just don't see a point in drawing this distinction

either you're okay with all of it, or you're against all of it

nobody's life has more value than anyone else's just because you know them
You're drawing that distinction. Charlie's life isn't inherently more valuable than any of these dead kids. The point is I didn't make a post laughing about either incident. I was making fun of the shooter, not the situation. Mark is here saying "heh maybe you should've masturbated more lmao" to some guy who thinks he has cancer. The huge difference here is he's laughing at somebody's misery to their face. I made a joke about the shooter because he's a piece of shit. Maybe if you didn't ignore the rest of my post where I literally just said this you wouldn't keep asking stupid questions.
there is no difference

regardless of who you were making fun of, you still tried to make light of a shitty situation with a dumb joke, and are therefore a hypocrite

none of my questions are stupid just because you realize this and are too ashamed to admit it
