The last judge is hard, but in a really useful way - if you're not keeping your eyes on the enemy and proactively reading their tells, you're not going to be able to enjoy the back half of the game as much.
I had to kind of retrain my eyes to be able to beat this one... All throughout the game up to that point, I was so enthralled with the spectacle of combat that I'd be watching myself more than the enemy. But that leads to passivity.
My head is in the same place with regard to leftism. I really wish more people had the smarts and resilience to talk down conservatives who are still reachable by sane discourses. It's hypocritical of me though, given how many people I see as essentially in a death cult. At this point the best I can do most days is be real, keep a playful tone, and stop talking when I don't have anything constructive to say.
I'm not trying to shut you up. I just think people are messy, and unless we think they're so ideologically locked-in that there's no point, let's at least smile at people when they have a good point, even if their overall situation isn't looking good. I've been pretty disappointed with John Cleese's politics, but he's not wrong in this moment and I'd like to think he's not totally cut off from feedback that isn't biased in the opposite direction. If you'll pardon the multiple negative.
You're not even talking to the right person, now I know you're too easily confused.
Anyway that's funny but we don't actually differ in opinion in any way that matters politically. Look, being a good person is always going to mean accepting people who aren't as good as you.
It sucks, and you can still prefer people who are kinder and more well informed, but life isn't about only tolerating people with perfect opinions. And I say this as someone who excommunicated a best friend of twenty years for falling for 4chan propaganda. It's all about figuring out who can be reached and who is too far gone.
Can you imagine how great that would feel? To be trusted with such authority in service of your people, and to have kept your promise? I'd be a living legend, for the rest of my life I'd feel confident in having lived my ethos to its fullest. I cannot fathom why it does not appeal to some.
