Minecraft is maybe a bit of a weird one to have on the image, considering MS currently owns it lol.

I love Enshrouded, really cool skill system and the fact that you can place such small individual blocks when building is such a game changer!

(but don't you dare besmirch my beloved Valheim lol)

Yeah unfortunately I know exactly what you mean. You do what you have to do to make it.

I know right I can just buy it on Amazon /s

My thinking was the people in the South would be more likely to have learned a "toned down" version, and less likely to remember details.

Definitely just my personal experience from living in Oklahoma, idk if like Alabama or Mississippi are the same.

Oklahoma here, we definitely learned about it too.

But take like the Tulsa Race Massacre. I grew up hearing it called the Tulsa Race Riots, but I don't recall ever being taught about it in school, I heard about it from my parents. I still didn't really know much about it until several years ago. I literally grew up in Tulsa lol.

Edit: not to say I believe the story. But I think it's possible. I heard about the Massacre from my stepmom, who did a paper on it in college (mid 80s), and apparently had trouble finding a lot of different source material at the library.

Correct, it's good to be skeptical

Me too!

Whenever I see a story that seems far fetched, I try to think about it more broadly.

Was it a NYT reporter who hadn't heard of Jim Crow laws? Maybe, could've been a nobody intern who grew up in the South. Besides that, I fully believe this conversation has occurred with an ignorant person, if not a NYT reporter.

Honestly this is insane to me given the Trump crowd skews much older.

Literally the generation growing up in the Cold War, having evil Soviets ingrained in them from childhood, and now Russia being happy with our policies doesn't raise a red flag for them? Our President being pals with the ex-KGB Putin doesn't mean anything to them? Hello??

Honestly I'm just sad we already had a program like this. I didn't read the NYT article but ones from NPR and AP, didn't go into much detail about the existing one.

Idk, maybe if the money went to approved charities or cancer research foundations? Instead of a business for jobs, which isn't inherently bad, but easily exploitable. I'm guessing this new system will be worse and have fewer restrictions.

I would not, thank you
