* CapitalismIsBad: "One Last Gripe at the Industry", fittingly the first thing Ruiz posted under Cold Take after quitting The Escapist, has an undercurrent of highlighting problems with corporate organization and the loss of the human element that comes with it, as people become numbers and ruthless efficiency becomes standardized. He himself admits that "capitalism is bad" isn't exactly an uncommon viewpoint and can be annoying when repeated too often.
* NewMediaAreEvil: "AAA Studios Sued for Addictive Games" is an analysis of the pitfalls of the contemporary newest media of video games and their criticisms. Ruiz makes an in-between point that, yes, video games can be addictive and manipulative, but they're bad in the same way as junk food and cigarettes are unhealthy: enjoying them is a controlled risk, and using them irresponsibly is the bad part.
