There is no conspiracy to make bad players feed good and good players feel bad. It’s just basic math, intended to cope with an anemic population while keeping search times reasonable.
All this crap about SJW-esque thinking and the decline of the West – there’s a thread somewhere else around here with a rant about player cowardice – is just self-gratifying paranoia from far-right Internet tough guys. (Probably Boomers, to boot.)
