Also Minecraft is old as shit, I remember when it was just creative mode, no crafting as an early beta on a web page back in like 2009. That’s 15 years ago, Minecraft is almost old enough join the British army!!

cw - sexual assault
spoiler
Just to challenge that point, there is a large stigma against reporting and getting help for victims of rape and sexual assault within the LGBT+ community, whether perpetuated from within or outside the group. This underreporting is for a huge number of reasons and historical factors and but some of it because of a lot of pervasive myths, such as men can’t be raped, women cannot rape others, etc. Because of this, I’m not sure that continuing to spread the myth that rape is a purely heterosexual crime is at all a good idea.
I’m kind of ok with there being some media that is deeply critical of capital without being explicitly ML. I think it’s a good way of warming up ‘well meaning liberals’ to spicer left wing takes down the line.
The sort of person who is literate and is able to understand what the words they’re reading mean, but has never had a single independent thought in their life, and as such is not able to think beyond the words on the page in front of them and infer any context, wider meaning or implications. So they can read that an 8 year old did a charitable thing, and then have zero further thoughts about what the conditions are that mean the other 8 year olds are getting into food debt.
Now I think about it, probably the exact same type of person that condemns Hamas because Oct 7th “wasn’t very nice”, without a single thought about the history, motivations and actions that lead up to Oct 7th.
Imagine reading the article, and being so 
that you think “yes this is a wholesome good news story, all is well with society, silly OP mustn’t have even read it.”
Also it’s like the most inane solution to the problem at hand I can think of.
Problem statement: our society is so sick it has developed our offspring into socially withdrawn shut-ins.
Solution A: address the issues in our society to try affect the material conditions of our youth’s existence and their experiences of community/work/recreation, to try make things actually better for them and give them a society worth engaging with.
Solution B: pay money to a private corporation to have a fucking weekend’s themed getaway of a skin deep simulation of our children’s life experience, so we can develop a shred of empathy for our own children (!?!). With this new found empathy we will then do…. Nothing really.
I’ll be honest, I was half way through writing a similar comment to your until my sarcasm detector finally went off.
And what about Occupied Korean society may be causing these social breakdowns for their children? Is it the alienation they feel from some of the most oppressive capitalism on earth?
Yeah and make sleepy joe actually take his dafis this time.
I don’t want to set the world on fire - or something equally contemporary!
