Right, I see how you could read it like that but I read it more as a response to the intolerant people I mentioned and not really a comment on who did the murder in this case. Text-only communication is hard and often ambiguous like this but I like to at least give people the benefit of the doubt.

I’m not sure why they were downvoted so much - the way I read it, they mean that most of these super intolerant people are actually closeted LGBTQ+ people that are ashamed of themselves. E.g. the at this point almost common story of an anti-LGBT politician seen at a gay orgy or whatever. Or did I misunderstand what they meant?

It’s just extra hypocritical in that sense.

Fucking sad. Just baffles me how some people can be so intolerant.

I mean… you can already kinda do that right? Raise your children to have similar values to you and they’ll vote like you when they grow up. That happens constantly. There’s just an 18 year latency to it. Obviously you lose the vote once they grow up to vote by themselves. I feel like you’re making a bit of a strawman out of what I’m saying here. We clearly just disagree and that’s okay.

The idea is that the parent represents the child. We don’t trust children to make an informed vote, but we trust parents to make all kinds of choices for their children, including extremely personal choices. The current alternative is to not give children a vote at all. I think letting parents choose the vote for their child is better, and fits pretty well with all the rest that parents currently choose for their child. I also think it’s better than simply letting children of all ages vote, since again, they probably won’t be able to make an informed vote.

In that regard, they already have representation by their parents’ votes.

But that vote only counts as much as one person, so it doesn’t give any more representation to the child if you ask me. My whole point is that a parent should have outsized voting power because they represent two persons, not one (okay actually each parent would get 1.5 votes as the child’s vote would be split on each parent but my point is the same).

Until they reach that point, it’s essentially their parents or guardians getting an extra vote.

Honestly I’ve sometimes thought that parents ought to be able to vote for their kids. At least that gives some form of representation to children.

I know you’re being sarcastic but if we actually look on the bright side, then tools like this could make indie games easier to produce. More and better indie games could in theory bring more competition to companies like EA and that could actually pressure them to make games cheaper.

Jokes on you, I love the clumps of chocolate in milk with cocoa powder.

Yes. Describe it as best as you can and let the developer reach out to you if you want. A good maintainer will ask follow up questions for more specific stuff that you may not have provided at the start.
