squawking "it's the structural conditions" is ego-saving copout. napoleon and most other great and terrible historical figures leveraged structural conditions. we simply just don't want to acknowledge someone like this was capable of making our lives hell through sheer force of will

What a copout. "Going rogue" suggests that they're not being ordered to do this. These actions are almost assuredly coming from the top.

The new game almost immediately establishes some copout retcon shit to justify reusing more of Tears of the Kingdom’s assets without having to actually do the hard + expensive work of portraying the history hinted at in the game
I am not a fan of the fact that the last two Hyrule Warriors games have gone back to try to fully portray an ancient, mythic time from the backstory of their respective mainline games.
Dispelling the unknown with the low-quality known is a bad thing! Stories need unknown edges

well sure, i agree that the ed zitrons of the world bear some responsibility, but it's a copout to act like the individual members of the obsessive incoherent mob are blameless
yes, many people on Bluesky do respond incredibly aggressively to any non-negative mention of AI.
if that upsets you, while I get it, there are people responsible for *why* so many Bluesky users are utterly enraged at AI, and they are not in fact those Bluesky users.

Every one I called out before almost always parroted the "But I voted for Harris" copout.
Sure, voted for the woman they call "Holocaust Harris" and want tried then hung like a Nazi. Yeah, really.

Rule zero is deference to the DM, essentially. It's realistically there to say that if a situation needs to be resolved, the DM gets to make a call, but over the years, I've seen it as a copout for the rules not working. Rule zero, so if this doesn't work, the DM can just fix it.

o i'm also doing the extras after the routes and i'm amused both olysoi and gokusuto have similar extra formats. just for the record, anyone who says their favorite part of a woman's body is all of her is a copout

I was thinking this, like she nominated him for the copout reason of “he won’t go”… and he did… so surely that’s enough of a reason for them to finally confront her

It's a copout but I think the answer really is "what is 'breaking' in your domain?" - if you have a library which relies on a pay-per-scan OCR service, you *could* change the impl to call the service thrice, which wouldn't break tests, but would rightly make people annoyed at you for the larger bill

Yeaaaahhhh... the "those darn MAGA took your Doctor Who" is a copout. The Kimmel stuff was only a few weeks ago. The renewal thing has been up in the air for months.
And the ratings were bad.

Deadline reports on the end of Doctor Who at Disney+ - features smaller audiences than hoped, Trumpist politics, issues with the lead, and consideration of budgets, future co-production and international distribution prospects.
Why Disney Ditched ‘Doctor Who’: Sources Say Ratings, Big Ticket Budget & MAGA Politics Were Factors In BBC Deal Failing To Regenerate
The BBC confirmed on Tuesday that its 'Doctor Who' co-production deal with Disney had vaporized. What went wrong on the series starring Ncuti Gatwa?

Absolutely embarrassing copout, lazy hack insulting nonsense that's on the same level as George Lucas's "revisions" of the OG Star Wars trilogy. The original SV was flawed but I enjoyed it precisely BECAUSE the characters faced consequences for their shit and didn't get over things Just Like That!

31 days of horror movie review:
Longlegs (2024)
The cinematography and direction is very strong and compelling. The acting is settle and haunting. However, the reveal was a bit of a copout. The film should have stayed within the parameters that was first presented. 3.5/5⭐️

Eastern Pacific? So like California or Mexico?
We need to try him and everyone involved for first degree murder. Anything less is a copout.

Something interesting I’ve noticed is that “DIY is riskier for transmascs” is often used as a copout against transfems who advocate for DIY and while I’m not denying it, the other day I was talking to some trans guys irl and they were legit infodumping to me about how easy and safe DIY T is
