And full strawmanning in bad faith isn't?

Why do ya'll immediately strawman?
Let's look at my answer. I'll put it in caps so you can read it.
> I DONT THINK WE SHOULD STOP YOUNG PEOPLE FROM MAKING MISTAKES
And even before that I agreed that young adults have to make hard decisions.
You took that answer and got "so a woman shouldn't be able to get a mortgage"????
Like seriously, bad faith trolling.

it telegraphs so much and is so slow in the best way. Turn 5 I play [[Westgate Regent]], turn 6 I play felix and attack making westgate a 12/12 flyer. turn 7 I attack with him again and get a 36/36 flyer. Turn 8 I have a lethal flying guy that dies to removal.

I power down my decks all the time. Optimization is often the enemy of fun.

Is it fun to be dead 90% of a game?
DRW0813
Achievement hunting at the expense of others.
Playing the game normally doesn't stop the achievement hunters from achieving.
Achieving hunters optimizing the fun out of the game for everyone else does stop normal players from having fun.

> there no point doing it on the harder difficulty
The point of the game is to have fun. Ruining other people's enjoyment of the game to knock out an achievement that's supposed to take a long time within weeks of the game release is being a dick

> steadier position in terms of career, finances, balanced personality
Exactly. There is a power imbalance. I dont think all of those relationships are always wrong. But it's something everyone needs to be aware of and is much more likely to turn into an abusing relationship. For every successful age gap relationship there are a ton more abusive ones.
Even in small everyday decisions the power imbalance is going to come up. Both partners need to be aware of it.
It's like gambling. Are there some successes? Sure. On average is everyone who participates worse off, yup. Does it put someone in dangers path even if no one gets hurt? Yup.

> agree 21
Personally, I put it at 25. The age you need to be to rent a car and the age that the brain is mostly developed. When a 25 year old dates a 40 year old it's much different than a 20 year old dating a 35 year old.
> should just be sheltered in their home with their parents for 30 years of life
Nope. That's a strawman. recognizing that there is a power imbalance between a 23 year old recent graduate who is impressionable and a 38 year old is different than saying that anyone under 30 should never go outside.
> bigger decisions in their life than who to date
Yup. Society has issues and there is no one size fits all. Student loans, 22 year old NFL players risking serious injury for millions of dollars, signing up for the military.
I don't think we should stop young people from making big decisions and making mistakes because that's how people grow up.

> they are too mentally dim to make their own choices as legal adults from 18 to 30
Is a strawman of
> partner who he can manipulate
from the post above since easy to manipulate doesnt mean dumb
A 20 year old is an adult and can make their own decisions, as long as that decision isn't to have alcohol because society has recognized that 20 is "adult-ish".
Someone with less life experience, less money, less connection, is going to be easier to manipulate than someone who is in a stable place in life.

Is Obama's actions the cause of that or an effect of him being black?
Option 1) Obama's actions seriously hurt race relations
Option 2) racists got mad at a black president for being black and become more outspoken in their racism, causing worsening race relations

Rankings
- oops all medics: s tier, no one is staying down
- oops all assault: A tier, they are staying stunned for a while
- oops all shotgun guys: D tier. At least people are healing themselves
- oops all marksmen: f tier. 2 UAVs have the same effect as 1 UAV so 4 UAV's is pointless

Cars are inherently a display of money.
Let's continue and compare sex to money.
Is someone who flies first class "show off their money like a hussy for attention" or doing it cause it objectively feels nice to fly in a seat that can fold into a bed.
> what's next you put on a porno
Do you want a discussion or do you just want to insult women?
DRW0813
Trying to think of a metaphor and this is what I came up with.
Think of dressing in an attractive manner like owning a car.
Some guys get the loudest car possible because they want people to notice them. Some guys buy fancy cars because they want to show off to everyone.
But some guys who drive fancy cars do it for themselves. It feels nice sitting behind the wheel of a porsche or a Genesis. When I'm driving one I'm not thinking "I hope others see it as fancy". I am enjoying the fanciness all to myself.
In fact I'd be kind of taken aback if someone started fawning over my car. Or accusing me of driving it for attention.

It's calling her fat.
Well it's meant to make her think she could be getting fat and make her second guess herself. while lowering her self esteem to make her easier to control.

> are you saying these are "gateway" actions
Yes. Behaviors which establish "we are NOT equal partners" do not lead to equal relationships. All abusive relationships are not equal.
Usually this is when "but some people want unequal relationships" comes in. At which point I'd say the Barbie movie does a good job at showing the trappings of patriarchy through a feminist lens

"Hey babe, do you need those fries? You are looking quite um, healthy"
Overleveled is frustrating too. 900,000 compared to everyone else's 70,000 isn't fun. All the excitement and danger is gone when you have a god on your team
