Oh, another game with covid setup.
There are 2 themes that kill the mood for me: politics and covid. Not saying that I am not interested in those things, just I am not interested while I am here. Maybe I am asking too much but it would be nice to spend a couple of hours totally disconnecting your brain from the shitty world we live on.
I totally agree, 100%. I get so agitated when out at a bar/pool hall/restaurant/whatever, and literally the only thing people can find to talk about is politics/religion/covid, when that's the very reason I go to those places...trying to disassociate from it all.
Same for pro sports...I just wanna sit on my couch with a couple beers and watch a game and yet they still use that time to shove more politics down your throat, when the main reason I'm watching the game is to try and get away from that for at least a couple hours of my day. It's pretty annoying.
BUT...the difference here is that we have the ability to simply not play the game, where we can't watch our favorite teams/games without seeing it. Here we have a choice. There we do not.
