Metro: Exodus. I remember it being extremely pretty, but I never beat it like I did the previous two games

And there is a bird, that urinates on its legs to keep them from getting sunburned

Nobody wants to be slaves!

Are you sure he doesn’t have a genocide dial like the gas prices one?

It especially pisses me off that they aren’t even using them correctly.

They are not direct fire, you’re supposed to bounce them off the ground.

This is communism, more or less how I understand it

Long live the Terran Empire!

The Vietnam War by Ken Burns. Among other things, it’s got an amazing soundtrack

My favorite solution was translating the website in Google translate

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

I am empathic to your situation. Good luck getting into your rhythm!

You been checked for sleep apnea?

Edit: what I said was incorrect.

Unfortunately/Fortunately that’s the audience that lemmy appeals most to. Personally, that’s (more or less) what I want from a community

I could have worded that better, my apologies there. The fact that someone stopped it, I think really is a difference.

I never once said anything about the Vietcong being inferior.

I’m done here, but I do suggest you go and do some more reading. Maybe watch Ken Burns Vietnam documentary to get started with.

My Lai was not an ethnic cleansing campaign. It was not directed by the White House or the Pentagon. It was a massacre that had an attempted cover up.

Is it really that hard to understand that something can be illegal, unethical, and immoral, and not be ethnic cleansing?

British colonialist policies during WW2

’m just going to go ahead and assume it’s also a complete mystery to you why the vaunted US military failed so abysmally in Afghanistan, eh?

This discussion is on vietnam, but cool.

What the Nazis did was nothing unique - it has been standard fare for colonialist powers long before WW2 happened, and it was stadard fare for the US both before and during the (so-called) “Cold War.”

Homie, I think you should learn some more about the eastern front. The United States wasn’t on an ethnic cleansing campaign in Indochina. The Nazi’s were on an ethnic cleansing campaign.

TLDR - “Our Army that now remains in Vietnam is in a state approaching collapse, with individual units avoiding or having refused combat, murdering their officers, drug-ridden, and dispirited where not near-mutinous.”

Which had had which major defeats associated with it?

At stopping supplies and people from moving south?

So, our goal was genocide? I’m not saying we were the good guys, but clearly we weren’t comparable to the fucking Nazis eastern campaign.

You still didn’t answer what it meant to break the US military.

What do you mean by “broke”? I’m quite literally in a class on the Vietnam War this semester, writing a paper about how ineffective our policy of bombing an agrarian society that only needed to supply its forces 50 tons of supplies a day.

Please, elaborate.

No. The Vietnamese did not “break” the US military. We got tired of being there, though.
