Where the fuck even is kamala at this point? Absolute radio silence for like a whole day lmao

His stream was literally unwatchable with that screaming lib dude who got worked up that the democrats didn’t run a good candidate lol. Like yeah, tf did you expect?

Lib january 6th when?

Probably the most popular game ever here in the Balkans. It’s a thing where we were so little here and obviously didn’t know a lick of English, we would just type in cheats and blow shit up. It’s so culturally relevant, there are still Balkan multiplayer servers even to this day.

Take care of your mental health first and foremost. You’ll probably need it much more for actual revolutionary action in the future. Even as an optimist who is willing to entertain the thought of converting liberals to our cause, these people are I’m afraid too far gone in their Putin/China derangement syndrome. The best antidote for posts shitting on hexbear, is to just come here, lurk on it for awhile, and make up their own minds. It certainly helped me when at first, I too as an anarchist was quite skeptical of this place and thought it was some exclusive hangout of dem dirty “tankies”. But after lurking here for awhile, I realized this place was not only good, but much better than shit like .world and other instances. Not to mention being a history buff, and reevaluating my positions based on a lot of comments I saw here, realizing that although mistakes certainly were made among socialist movements throughout history (famines in ukraine, the four pests) ultimately these movements did a lot more good than bad throughout and ultimately caught up to the west, even though the aforementioned had a 100 year head start and exploited and pillaged half the world to get where they are now.

Don’t let their idiocy stress you out for even a millisecond of your life. At this point, I genuinely think you would have an easier time convincing hillbilly rednecks who actually deny us imperialism, rather than these liberals with cognitive dissonance who know all too well, but the just say “at least we’re not the gommunists who killed 74 quadrillion uyghurs in tiananmen square!”.

To quote Uncle June, “Some people are so behind in a race that they actually think that they’re leading”

The most diabolical was the one to whom you literally linked sources, yet he literally just refused to use his brain and read (he actually can’t and/or he has an attention span of less than 5 seconds)

I would just like to salute comrade Cowbee for embarking on a Herculean, dare I say Sisyphean task of arguing with liberals in lemmy.world. During his quest of trying to find out if liberals have even just one functional, many of his brain cells fell.

It’s looking like we already have him in vivek

Isn’t Trump kinda the one to bring that about tho? Idk much about howard dean, but I assume he was at least somewhat respected as a politician beforehand. With that scream, in a kind of patriarchical society creating a mythos of education and prestige around politicians, revolving around political etiquette that scream is simply seen as infantile and unserious. Trump entered politics as that kind of infantile and unserious candidate in the first place, being a cartoonish, stereotypical, Saul Goodman-esque figure. In the end, it’s all about expectations that people set. Nobody believed agent orange would win, but in the end he did because he represented a kind of tonal shift in american politics, not to mention straight up saying what all these bourgeois politicians already believed anyway. In the same way LGBTQIA+ want to practice their sexuality without the fear of being killed, beaten or prosecuted, that is the same way in the opposite direction in which fascists want to freely express their racist, sexist, homophobic views without any consequences. Trump said these things out loud, and republicans found him ‘cool’ because he didn’t beat around the bush, at least in the public, about their true beliefs.

Ultimately, Trump isn’t some anomaly. He’s just a natural unmasking of the fascist paradigm of amerikkka.

I mean, I had to optimize my playstyle in eu4 to actually use all the money I always accumulate lol, and realized mana is a much better resource. I also tried playing M&T 3.0, which is also very econ heavy, but my main problem outside of the lag is the UI being an absolute clusterfuck and not really being able to navigate it. EU4 just really isn’t designed for that type of shit, so with EU5 being centered around pops and not mana, it’s hopefully gonna be a lot more complex in a good way, with a UI you will actually be able to understand.

I literally saw this image on the local when we were playing amerikkka in the olympics, but when I went back to find it, I couldn’t.

But this guy should 100% become an emote lmao

I’m like, the complete opposite, the only game that even comes close to EU4 is HOI4, but even then it’s basically incomparable. Btw, how’s Vicky 2 like? I’m excited for EU5 because it’s gonna have pops and an actual economy, but I personally never liked the setting of the 19th century, so should I give it a try anyway?

Unless you are playing with your friends, I feel like it’s just better to pirate it since the dlcs come with the game, instead of having to do those creamapi shenanigans (especially for me since I’m on linux).

I know Paradox is a shitty company at this point with their dlc policy and whatnot, but I sincerely hope they don’t fuck up EU5 especially considering the fact that how it’s looking in the dev diaries, it’s basically gonna be a combination of CK, Victoria and EU. Playing that and Elden Ring (when I eventually find enough money to buy the PC for it) and I don’t have to play another video game for the rest of my life.

The true irony of paradox games is actually owning EU4, but still pirating it because the DLCs are like half the fucking game.

As a non usasian, I think that at this point it’s more about who can mobilize their base more than it is fighting for some imaginary independents. Kamala had some hype at the beginning, but now it’s entirely artificial and on reddit. Trump is a known commodity, but at this point he’s washed compared to 2016, especially since not even 2 assassination attempts can raise his ratings. I guess in the end, it’s better to bet on republicans to go out and than the democrats.

How could I forget those?
