No journalists on the ground found any indication of a mass casualty event on Tiananmen Square

ON Tiananmen Square. This is fascist-level wordplay. The same journalists found a massacre all around Tiananmen Square in the rest of Beijing.

no evidence that Chinese tanks actually killed anyone on 6/4

This is just a straight up lie. Lots of people were killed in Beijing. Just possibly not any within the tiny physical confines of Tiananmen Square itself.

supporters of Israel and the US are both “tankies.” Glad we agree, good talk!

Based af, the tankies who support Chinese and Russian imperialism are equivalent to the tankies who support US and Israeli imperialism.

Keeping it spoiler free: at one point my female V was walking past a bunch of the Barghest gang who were non-aggressive, but making degrading comments. One said something about “coming back on all fours” and I turned around and mono-wired his head right off. The entire gang went aggro and I had to kill about 50 of them. Worth it, will do it again next playthrough.

Idk if I would recommend it at $90, but right now the base game and expansion are bundled for $60.70 on steam.

It sucks for the pre-order customers that what they really got was 3 years of early access, but for someone jumping in right now, that’s a solid deal.

As a netrunner, cyberdeck overclock feels amazing.

Basically once youtr out of RAM for quickhacks, you can spend hp instead, 10 hp for each RAM cost.

So you can play along the knive’s edge against a large group of enemies, where one or two more control quickhacks might put you right at deaths door, but give you a chance to heal back before they start shooting at you again.

I’m also a fan of the level scaling. In 1.6 sometimes I would come across early content with a late game character, and just run across them haphazardly 1-shot beheading anyone close to me. It’s funny once, but gets boring revisiting old content. Night city should feel dangerous.

Multiverse Thanos where he tries to wipe out the 50% most destructive, but snaps himself out of existence first because even by trying he made himself the most destructive person in the universe.

I think you have a really good point.

I’m anti-eugenics, I just want good sex education and free birth control and abortion. Educate people, and empower them with personal agency.

I think the genetics/natural-selection part of Idiocracy is wrong and in bad taste - ignorance and stupidity are far more correlated to economic insecurity, poverty, food deserts, underfunded schooling. We can and should fix these.

I suspect most people would ultimately agree with this over eugenics, even if they reference Idiocracy.

Just for another use case, pronouns can help clarify if you prefer to be called sir or ma’am.

I wouldn’t call you a bigot for not having preferred pronouns though, that seems really silly.

I think it’s pretty reasonable to assume that any blackmail Epstein was holding against any and all of his clients is in the hands of the Kremlin.

Eh, at this point every election is deciding the fate of Democracy, the US is kinda hanging on by threads.

Hell yes it’s a great way to live.

If we implement government policies that incentivize simple living, and tax wasteful living exponentially, it’s going to benefit individuals.

Wealthy people will be better off from having most of their wealth taxed because they’ll have a more enjoyable simple lifestyle.

You’re not technically wrong, but you’re comparing apples to oranges. Taxonomic etymology is far more scientifically rigorous than “white fur cat species” vs “black fur cat species”.

Ooofff that hurts 😵‍💫

Suddenly rent raises in the Midwest don’t look that bad anymore.

There is no racial distinction in biology. Our brains make up race, based on what we see and assume about people.

This should actually be pretty obvious because what counts as “white” as changed over the decades, as society changes.

264sqft?? You’re paying almost $1000 per square foot…

Man I hate running into air defense missiles, it’s such a downer

The place fell out a window, and while it fell he fell out of a window on the falling plane.
