Simply, we're either predisposed or have been conditioned to ask ourselves "what if i were the perpetrator/accused" instead of asking "what if I were the victim." I don't think you're a bad person for reacting but you need to work on it babes

If you feel like you need to post something that empathizes with Jacob Gellar, I get it, but close the app and instead practice empathizing with the victim. I do not say this glibly. Just do it and sit with that discomfort.

workers, harms artists, harms the environment and so on, it is in your best interest to muddy the waters as much as possible so it's harder for people to call it out. 2/2

I think this is deliberate on the AI industry's part. Like, it makes it a lot easier to make strawman arguments to discredit critics of generative AI, and it makes it easier to derail conversations and waste critics' time by arguing about definitions. If you're pushing for something that harms 1/2

A problem with AI discourse is that everything is called AI as a marketing gimmick now no matter how applicable of a term it actually is. Which leads to things like people thinking devs talking about enemy AI AI in their game are talking about GenAI.

My entire Bluesky account may be just fully deleted now.  I will have no idea until Friday whether my account with 1700 followers has just been completely erased from existence so Bluesky admins could protect Their Favorite Child from the Mean Old Anyone-Who-Isn't-Slurping-Down-AI.

I say this as a joke but honestly if, when playing a video game, you can lose and: - not get frustrated or annoyed - think about what happened and examine the elements in play - reconsider your choices regularly then you'll be well on your way to overcoming a lot of difficult gaming challenges

Also, is it just me or does "Marketers who use AI to get their games in the top 5 of Steam Next Fest and reach 100k wishlists" sound like they're teaching you how to game the algorithm? Don't do that. Make a good game that people want to play

Just got an email from an AI slop merchant trying to sweet talk me into coming to their event. Don't be this guy.
Go fuck yourself. Don't compare me to the AI slop merchants. Besides, if you actually took more than five seconds to check out my work and what I've been up to, you would have seen this response coming from a mile away.

Have a good day,
-JulesHi Jules-Makes-Games,

As a game developer, I want to invite you to the first AI Gaming Conference taking place virtually this month starting September 10th. We're in an era where game prototypes are made in 2 days, playable builds within 2 weeks, a demo in 1 month, and a Steam launch in 3 months. And we're showing developers how!

The festival is showcasing nearly 300 games that have used AI in their development process, across both Steam and Glitch, along with talks and workshops from high-profile speakers such as:

Game Directors from well-known titles like Assassin's Creed and Fortnite
VCs and game developers that have raised millions for their studios
Top game engines like Unity presenting AI-optimized workflows
AI experts from Zynga and Take-Two Interactive
Marketers who use AI to get their games into the Top 5 on Steam Next Fest and reach 100K wishlists
And more talks
Two links for the festival:

Festival's Main Games Page
Festival's Speaker/Workshop Schedule
We will also have a networking and jobs area for people looking for part-time gigs, collaborations, or full-time employment to connect during the month-long festival.

Looking forward to potentially seeing you there!

Best,

Glitch Team

That makes sense, and I think I agree with you about how the solutions will not be rhetorical. As for those future projects, whatever form they end up taking, I'll be there to check them out!

Thanks for the quick response! If I may ask, do you have any plans to make more Alt-Right Playbook videos, and if so, what will they be about? I know you've talked in the past about wanting the final part of the series to be about actual *solutions* to the problem of far-right radicalisation, but

of "The Anti-Criticism Playbook", or would that be stepping into your territory? 3/3

Jules-Makes-Games @julesmakesgames.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
writing a series of blog posts dissecting the various rhetorical tactics that anti-intellectuals (including those on the far right) use to discredit criticism as a valid mode of intellectual discourse. Is it allright for me to call it something along the lines 2/3

Jules-Makes-Games @julesmakesgames.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
@innuendostudios.bsky.social Hello Ian. I am a big fan of your work and your Alt-Right Playbook series in particular has really helped me understand the kind of rhetoric and manipulation tactics that the far right uses. I have a quick question for you: I have a blog and I've been thinking about 1/3

Thanks for sharing this. As someone who doesn't have a physical disability, I wasn't aware of this, and I have said things like that in the past to make a point about people invalidating mental disabilitues/mental health issues. I will avoid saying things like that in the future.

These people should not be allowed to call anyone else a triggered snowflake. But, then again, pointing out hypocrisy is useless when the other side doesn't give a shit about hypocrisy.

This is a good reminder that the people who constantly complain about "snowflakes" and "cancel culture" and how "everything is offensive nowadays" are projecting the fact that THEY are the biggest snowflakes in the entire fucking world.
