AfterthoughtC - he/ him

These ‘x issues are dividing the working class’ lines is just trickle-down economics with race/ gender/ orientation etc.

I’m thinking call them Squealer and ask them how much milk and apples they were paid to spread their propaganda.

Prince Souphanouvong from Laos?

Saying “leave if you don’t like your country’s imperialism” is no different from saying “anyone who are not as racist as me should go kill themselves”.

A thought experiment that came to my head: Say in an alternate timeline Biden is more or less the same or ‘okay’ on other issues but the ‘single issue’ is something else. The Israel-Palestine war either does not happen during his term or he gives a way more convincing 'anti-'genocide response. Instead he is either super pro-life or super transphobic. If the former alternate Biden actively works with republicans to pass bills to restrict abortion access and calls pro-choice protestors who get beaten up pro-baby murder. If the latter alternate Biden actively works with republicans to pass bills to criminalise trans people, calls trans-supportive parents and teachers child molestors and claims Rowling etc. are victims of cancel culture. How would liberals justify this as the lesser evil?

To hop on this I’m looking at trying a chinese/ wuxia turn-based rpg for this summer sale. Have the following on my wishlist:
-Wandering Sword
-Xuan-Yuan Sword: Mists Beyond the Mountains
-Hero’s Adventure: Road to Passion
-Souls of Chronos
-Terra Memoria
What would you recommend?

Note that the CrossCode DLC A New Home on itch io did not come with the bundle and is not on sale and if you want it it would probably be cheaper to just re-buy the game and DLC on steam.

Pokemon Emerald Z. Decent fakemon romhack that is not super difficult like Altair/ Sirius/ Vega.
Pokemon Unbound and Gaia for new region hacks.
I also have kind of a soft spot for Pokemon Glazed and Giratina Strikes Back. Mainly because they came out at a time when pokemon romhack game balance and stories were awful. Meanwhile Glazed was just a regular get all eight badges story while Giratina Strikes Back at least had some semblance of level scaling/ balance/ no Lv 80 vs your own Lv 40 pokemon bosses.

I guess compare them to their enemies? Put the two statements “Russia declared LGBTQ+ as a terrorist movement because the CIA (allegedly) uses LGBTQ+ organisations as fronts for spying” and “Israel kills Palestinian civilians because Hamas (allegedly) hides behind them” together. Ask why they think the latter is morally justified but not the former.

I assume Azur Promilia will be more or less the same on release? Though that game at least seems to be gunning for a different genre (Palworld with less guns).

If I ever end up modding my own community I would classify all instances of #1 as a death threat. They want to tell you to go ‘k’ yourself but are too much of a coward to say it out loud.

I played it on android though I kind of go on and off.
Also the game is currently humble bundle’s FUNgeon Crawlers bundle. Second tier US$11.

What about Vietnam war-style booby trapping inside the building? Would that help or will it just injure the students?

The phenomenom of ‘using queer rights to make your crimes against humanity look pretty’ is called pinkwashing if anyone needs a short word to describe it in future
https://decolonizepalestine.com/rainbow-washing/pinkwashing/

Y’know some people claim that Russia recently declaring all LGBT groups as terrorist organisations is because the LGBT support groups are all CIA plants.
This is not a justification for Russia obviously, whether or not the CIA plant thing is true persecuting your own country’s queer community is always wrong. I just find it interesting that people have no problem condemning Russia and pointing out that this is a bullshit justification for homophobia but with Israel calling into question the morality of “hamas allegedly hides among civilians so killing Palestinian civilians is justified” will have people compare you to Hitler.

Instead of ‘never again’ they decide to do it again to Palestine

I wonder how super-pro-Israel countries like Germany and US will behave when the settlers come back. Are they going to let themselves be the new zionist base or will their anti-Jew ass show itself? Like there is a huge difference between virtue signalling on how anti-nazi you are while having an unrelated third party pay for your mistakes and actually having to pay with your own land and pockets.
