You’ve heard it before. “This hero is not problematic, if you just climb to high elo”
The same astounding logic produces arguments such as:
“Insulin is too expensive for the average person? Nobody can afford to buy a house anymore? Just get rich. Problem solved. I am very smart. Why doesn’t everyone just get rich?”
Yes indeed, why doesn’t everyone in the world simply join the top 5 percentile of everything?
When taking into account a game, we are supposed to be ranked differently amongst our skill level. You should expect a very different soccer comming from the world cup winning team and your local high school team, for instance. There are things you learn to deal with skill.
Now, insulin is a life saving medicine. You can’t choose to interact with diabetes like you can choose to interact with a game. It’s like, either you take it or you die, there’s no way around it. That’s real life. You can’t ask Devs to nerf Insulin prices. You can always opt out of a game if you think it’s unfair. You can, indeed, ask for a public health system, access to medications, regulation of the pharmaceutical industry. Well, not only you can, you should, everyone should. You never know if you’ll be the next one that can’t afford healthcare in the future, or if your friends or family. Even people you don’t know but that still contribute to your life somehow might be saved by it.
Why are you trying to use populist arguments in your favor. The majority of American voter’s selected a fascist in 2024, and it appears the majority of Overwatch voters have fascistic tendencies in their ban choices as well
Thats not usually what people mean when they say get good about an issue. It doesnt matter how high you climb if you keep running in a straight line towards a bastion.
And the rest of these comparisons are just not at all similar.
It’s a dumb analogy. There are heroes that are problematic only in certain ranks. You have to learn to deal with the hero that is a problem in your rank in order to progress, it’s simple as that.
Now, you can’t “get better” from your basic needs. They will always be there.
One depends entirely upon you to achieve. The other depends on a series of factors outside of your reach that needs collective effort to overcome.
