There's a certain flavor of person who makes it their own responsibility to unlearn and process the various forms of systemic oppression we've all absorbed by living in it
And then there's a certain flavor of person (usually White/male/cis/etc) who not only does none of those things but actively resists folks explaining the things they should have learned on their own
I want to ask them how they remained so ignorant of the very visible world around them, and yet...the answer is right there

Black Book is an interesting #game. It's a kind of crossover between an RPG game, an adventure game and a card game (first one I've ever played). It's kinda fun, but more importantly, it's deeply immersed in eastern Slavic folklore.
One thing makes me wonder. Life in XIX. century must have been hard. People needed to work a lot just to survive. On top of that, they clearly had a very complex system of superstitions. I would find it hard to remember it all, let alone watch yourself at every turn not to anger some spirit…

@… The idea that the term “free” must necessitate “free to be abused by capitalism” is a terrible take and makes me angry.

Over on the trading forums I ply daily, I get tweaked over smartasses who pooh-pooh Edwin Lefèvre's 101-year-old masterpiece, "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator" because the real protagonist, Jesse Livermore, ultimately failed. So, I wrote this to one such party pooper now:

For people not able to delete their stackoverflow content, for me deleting two answers = instant week-long ban, but I've since had good results editing them slightly to make them useless.
