  • For something like a gamepass it’s debatable.

    You probably pay more if using a gamepass, but you also try a lot more games.

    If you played as many games without a gamepass as with one, you’d pay a lot more.

    But without a gamepass, you usually restrict yourself to fewer games.

    Whether removing such restriction is worth the (not as significant) additional cost is subjective.

    So there’s an actual case for subscription in cases like this.

    (The reason subscriptions make some sense here is because digital items are artificially limited. With physical items or services subscriptions are almost always a money grab. But with artificially limited things, such as digital items, subscriptions can definitely be reasonable.)





  • in many cases when people bring up boy’s or men’s issues they will only do so while simultaneously attacking feminist talking points.

    This is very much a talking point by “only girls can have issues” people.

    “Men don’t have issues, men’s rights groups only exist to spread misogyny!”

    That is a key point of why the idea that men’s issues are not taken seriously is spreading, because simply talking about / focusing on men’s issues quickly gets people labled as misogynists.

    This both gets people to stop caring about the idea of misogynism, because “apparently simply talking about men’s issues is misogyny”, and thereby also pushes people to develop more problematic views.
