That's true, but I think people would be less upset if they were actually running it, you know? Like I fell off like legit six or seven years ago when there was a promised Heavy Update 2, and I came back a few months ago to find that that was still MIA. And that kind of inaction is kind of why fans find themselves making these kinds of projects in the first place. So this does still feel hypocritical, even if they are entirely within their rights to do it.

Hey, I'm always happy when right wingers lose something.

sentences that sound made up but have actual meaning

They've put a lot of work into locking people into an ecosystem. To pick one example, if you've got a Logic project you want someone to be able to edit, even if you manage to migrate it with all of the required stuff, they're still going to need a Mac to open it.

To borrow a phrase from Steve Hofstetter, I've never flown a helicopter, but if I saw one in a tree, I could still be like "dude fucked up."

that is also how it's always been explained to me

That's very nice, but we've still got to contend with the reality that an entire political party in the US is using Christianity as an excuse to do horrifically evil shit, and a sizeable contingent of everyday people who also claim the label are in support of that. As an outside observer and not a Christian myself, it seems like a semantic distinction that ultimately misses the forest for the trees.

Trump became president by winning over enough Republican primary voters and then exploiting the electoral college's inbuilt favoring of conservatives.

For someone better to get in, they have to go through one of the major parties, and that means winning a primary. As such, by voting in a primary, there is the chance to actually stop a genocidal maniac from being put on the ticket in the first place. In our current system, that is unfortunately our best option. Voting third party in the general election in a first-past-the-post system that filters the popular vote through the electoral college is about as close as you can get to throwing your vote away without putting it in a literal trash can.

For the record, while this is the system that we live with and have to work within as long as we have it, this system is also total shit and we should absolutely abolish the electoral college and adopt a more parliamentary system like stronger democracies have elsewhere in the world.
