when you own a controlling interest in an entire political party, and have invested in their competition heavily as well, you can get away with it.

Let's be real, Democrats aren't going to stand up against fossil fuels in a meaningful way right now. I mean I'm all for them compared to Republicans because they don't want to build gas chambers for trans people and illegal immigrants but still

Very generous say one party. The most climate friendly president has given more oil/fracking permits than George W. Bush.

Good news, with Newsom's new law against big oil might see some forward progress in politics against such high profits!

Every day we more closely resemble the cyberpunk future we were promised in the 80's... so why don't we ever get any of the COOL bits? It looks like fixer/Mr. Johnson is becoming a viable career path, but where are the fucking body augs and implanted sunglasses and virtual reality? I never asked for this.

I desperately want those rumors of a new game to be true. Even with the final 1/3 cruelly scrapped, Mankind Divided was a blast. I'll maintain that even the original holds up.

I think it’s been like 6 years since the last DLC they put out. Criminal Past and System Rift are worth it but you can pick them up later when you’re craving a few more hours of content.

I'm excited now. I loved human revolution and almost completely forgot mankind divided existed.

The cool bits is how the conditions were set for you to accept your dystopian future

I'm guessing these guys are smarter than posting their evil plans in email and on social media these days, unlike our politicians.

Of course they can't accuse them of wrongdoing, when they're paying to infiltrate and subvert citizens trying to exercise their rights to a livable planet.
