Well, now I see why Newgrounds is pretty much the only place on the entire Internet that is even remotely comfortable with Foamy on their platform. I’ll…have to ruminate on this one a bit, but at least it makes me even more smug than usual about registering as an “Independent” at the DMV and thus people are more likely to listen to my opinions since it’s not clear where my biases are—at least so long as they as they don’t have the legal authority to look at my recent voting patterns…
Still, labeling myself as an “Independent” is very much the definition of labeling myself, and when you think about it, isn’t calling ourselves “humans” or even “mortals” divisive labeling, too, implying that we’re somehow better than other animals despite technically being instinct-driven animals ourselves? Sounds like getting rid of divisive labeling is going to take some work, even from Foamy. Let’s start by no longer calling every remotely-challenging, pattern-based video game a “Soulslike.”
