That anecdote ends with “Then they came for me, and there was nobody left to speak for me.” The state doing stuff is not inherently bad. The state doing stuff that weakens those who protest injustice, and disperses networks of resistance is. Huge megacorporations will never care about anyone but themselves, because that’s what they’re structurally set up to do. I wouldn’t worry too much about this legislation yet.

Wild ARMs is a pretty great PSX JRPG that would be a nice choice for a July GOTM because of its Wild Western feel. Wind Waker might also be a good choice. Regardless, I’m looking forward to seeing what wins, and playing it!
