This makes every BMF post I’ve ever read look coherent

If the robots are made in america i expect them to be shit and not work most of the time, going by Musk’s examples.

i am max level and haven’t finished messing around in the city yet. Think I’ve only done about half the content that exists with 200 hours.

I don’t even care about the production quality, I just want it to be… Entertaining?

RT English got it right before that was shut down. Putting aside the brainworms it had obviously.

You can’t do dry news anymore, it loses to the channels that at least understand how to make things interesting.

Same way they frame Crimea as an invasion

There’s just so much game in this game, it feels like it’s introducing a new mechanic every few minutes.

Here’s the fun part. The existing map we have is lit up while the drawn in parts are the new map regions that exist on the CN version that we don’t even have yet:

There is a lot more game that we don’t even have.

They have absolutely no respect for any other culture or country’s boundaries so why the fuck should anyone else “butt out” (respectfully lmao) of theirs? Fuck off.

These dudes don’t want girlfriends they want pets. Even that is an understatement because even with a pet you have to respect its emotions and boundaries from time to time unless you’re lucky enough to have a super derp without a care in the world.

It’s why media that panders to these dweebs infantilises women so much, if they behave remotely like educated adult human beings they inevitably say things that these dudes don’t like.

American cops already proved that they do not stop for protesters that stand in front of their vehicles during BLM, they just run into them.

The Chinese actually stopped.

God CGTN need to up their game. Their shit is so dry.

This is the second door dash delivery in progress that I’ve seen this happen with and it leads me to believe ICE must have inside-information on current deliveries in progress. There’s only like a 20 minute window between an order being made and a delivery, they must have that information in real time.

I don’t think it’s an appeal.

It’s a show. This kind of thing forms part of a narrative of natural overthrow of the regime, and that the people wanted it so much that they would even burn down mosques to achieve it. The playbook of western regime change is to generate unrest as part of the narrative of regime change then to quietly prepare their replacement behind the scenes. What actually achieves the regime change is a coup of some sort that occurs behind the backdrop of all the unrest, but the story that is told in the media is of the people performing a revolution and naturally overthrowing the regime.

Something bigger is probably coming if that is what this is.

The only possible way this goes well for the protest is if wider society blames the government for failing to protect the mosque from this and gets mad at them for it rather than blaming the protest itself and losing support.

Perhaps if people are upset enough it becomes a symbol of “we don’t care” or “yes this was to be expected” in the current events, but I don’t think so. It’s not the same as a government building or large palace residence burning that people might be indifferent to in somewhere like Ukraine during Maidan. Those things tend to benefit the atmosphere of the ongoing revolution whereas I’m pretty doubtful of this. Perhaps the point is not to help the protests but as a spectacle for the outside world immediately before the US and Israel start bombing.

If you combine this with the recent moves to ceasefire groups in Syria it makes me wonder if some attempt to send something in via ground is coming.

Even if an open invasion is not planned, any conflict in Syria is creating a barrier to deploying mossad/cia agents into Iran.

To be fair to those users it is probably true, that is the internet to them. Same goes for redditors who don’t go anywhere else online except reddit. They’d adapt though.

This must give a similar feeling to when I get likes and retweets from George Galloway.

UK threatened with sanctions if Starmer blocks Musk’s X

Losing an entire quarter of the labour power of an entire country will surely not have any repercussions.

Though as your conversation shows with that person from mander.xyz, the term “Tankie” is just a floating signifier with no real meaning and just means whatever a person wants it to mean, so an “anti-tankie” is probably not going to have any sort of coherent worldview.

Mmmmmm. There’s a whole thing to unpack there where a “tankie” is an unreasonable boogieman that some people have been convinced exists but really does not. It’s a caricature of a marxist-leninist who reverts to “stalin should’ve sent more tanks” with no understanding that statements like that are unserious and the real position held by that person in a reasonable conversation is quite different.

I see.

I define it as the people who deny any wrongdoing by governments and call anyone who does liberal.

The thing is that there really aren’t any people that fit that. No really. That’s not a particularly common position among any communists at all. At most it occurs when a communist is particularly fed up with a person’s behaviour as most conversations tend to occur in bad-faith and at that point they default to a sort of “fuck you stalin didn’t throw enough nazis in pits” sort of attitude.

For the majority of communists, Stalin is like, 70 good 30 bad. Similar situation with Mao, in fact that’s the official position of the CPC as well.

My experience with people throwing the word tankie around is they actually just tend to mean any communist, and when you ask them to clarify further the goalposts continually move around to a degree where basically any communist falls into the definition. That does not seem to be the case in your example, but I would argue that, generally speaking, you’re not anti-communist at all in any way because the “tankie” that you oppose is a boogie man that doesn’t actually exist outside of weird situations or examples of teens being teens.
