> [@Jihi](#): > > I found this observation insightful. In game terms we would call them NPCs. (Non Player Characters) These are characters controlled by the computer that are simply there to facilitate the players experience. They may have names, personalities, motivations etc… But they’re not “real people” in the sense that they have no agency, and they can’t affect the progress of the game unlike the human player. Did you see _Free City_? @eschereal Your video reminds me of [this silly old parody on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmXxrMC5Pv4). The key is that the person posting it knows full well it’s a parody and does not expect anyone to believe it’s a serious assertion like the loony pubbies do about the Springfield nonsense. ---

I wonder if Trump is going to have to start golfing in a little plexiglass box now. Reminder to Trump: as much as you will be inclined to blame Biden and Harris for this, remember that _you_ are the reason you can’t have nice things. Who was that back in 2015 wishing a 2nd Amendment solution on Hillary Clinton? Sound familiar? ---

> [@Aspenglow](#): > > Live by the sword, die by the sword. > > Or in this case, the gun. The right-wing hypocrisy over this is crazy. I watched a little Fox news to see how they are taking it and they have lost their minds. They think Trump should have the same protection as Biden, and more! There should have been dogs patrolling the golf course. There should have been police outside the perimeter. Roads should have been shut down. How could this have happened?! Hey, I’ve got news for you. You are living in America. The fully armed and loaded country _you_ made. Then they started whining about the poor people who were golfing with him. They shouldn’t be subject to fear of being shot. No they shouldn’t, but they should also not be subject to fear of being shot at the grocery or a nightclub or their kid at school. But as some on your side have said - “Price of Freedom!” Thoughts and prayers, though. ---

> [@aurora\_maire](#): > > they should also not be subject to fear of being shot at the grocery or a nightclub or their kid at school. But as some on your side have said - “Price of Freedom!” It would be icing on the cake if this is how the guy defended himself in court. “I’m not an assassin, I’m just a regular American, exercising my God-given right to carry this here assault weapon with me everywhere I go. Don’t you know it’s dangerous around here? Trump told me there are immigrants eating cats! Oh, you know what else Trump said? On January 6th, 2021, he said the Secret Service should take the magnetometers away because the armed people weren’t there to hurt him. Why did I run? Because some jumpy-ass Secret Service agent shot at me for exercising my one and only true freedom, the right to bear arms. I didn’t know Trump was there, 500 yards from my barrel. That’s his fault, not mine. So as you can see, I’m just a regular American, duly handed his AK-47 by Jesus Himself riding a Tyrannosaur that was pooping out copies of the Second Amendment. And this, combined with Trump’s acknowledgement that no one could ever possible want to hurt him means that I am clearly, fully not guilty.” ---
