  • The purpose of these questions people ask conspiratorially is not to get answers. It’s to foment doubt. They don’t want answers; if they did they could look it up and find an answer. They just want people to start questioning the official story, then they sell their own conspiracy to them. It’s an old playbook, and people like Alex Jones have been using it for decades.








  • Well, probably because if they use that metric, a ton of other companies, many US based (though unsure if Brazil cares about that part) would be on the list too. There was an older Last Week Tonight episode about how much cheap clothes and luxury clothes ended up having subcontractors that used slaves.

    Owners would claim they had no idea, would fire the subcontractor, then sometimes the issue would repeat. I recall one claim was that their subcontractors would farm out work to even more subcontractors as the reason why, but that still feels like passing the buck.







  • Others have given probably similar examples, but Arin’s Mega Man X video both agrees with you and the post. It points out how some games used limited options in games (and showing examples before you died) to train you on ways the game works without the yellow paint. Your point is that games today don’t have the same limitations such as only travel right at the start, whereas the video points out there should be environmental designs that lead you to the answer.

    With fully free 3d environments it’s harder to do that without yellow paint though.
