I don’t think looking Italian is the bad part about being one

Tomatoes from the store are refrigerated, which turns them pretty bland, and they probably don’t do that to canned tomatoes. I can’t say I’ve ever eaten them straight from the can to compare, though.

Wait so “higher quality” stuff goes to gossip and lower quality to counterpropaganda? Aren’t these names backwards? The rules of counterpropaganda also do not seem to agree with this, unless you have a ridiculously wide definition of “propaganda”.

I think people generally overestimate the effectiveness of the “weird” thing for actually getting votes. It probably goes over well with the loyalist democrats, but those are already going to vote for you anyway. I don’t think it does anything for disaffected liberals, or dissuades lukewarm Trump voters, Trump is just too likable of a weirdo for it and now seems even more anti-establishment.

I just started, and so much of the dialogue reminds me of Overwatch pre-game chatter, because it is so empty in both style and content that paying attention to it actively feels like wasting your time.

I will also not do anything differently, unless I am forced to. You are welcome.

This election has shown us that the American public just isn’t ready for a vice president whose name rhymes with “balls”

The idea of sex is an abstraction, much like anything else we can think about. It is abstracted from the rest of reality so that we can think about it. The different abstractions of it are done for some purposes, some of which are better than others. Abstraction is a social process, and we should absolutely be critical of it.

The difference between social constructivism of nature and the Marxist dialectical view is that we think that the material reality has an objective (if ever-changing) structure that is not solely determined by human thought, and for example sex exists as far as the idea is useful for understanding this reality.

Who can say, but I do find the liberal “proof” of Trump’s dictatorial intent flimsy, and am also skeptical of his ability to do a self-coup if he did want to end democracy.

The End of Democracy narrative they have been building absolutely justifies it, if nothing happens it will be because they never really believed all those things

Harris and Trump both coincidentally die in the same car crash on election day, and the USA balkanizes as a result

Clothesline -> bounce off the ropes -> elbow drop

You could say they are the same thing looked at from different points of view, or that it is surplus value while in production and turns into profit in circulation. They probably also have historical differences when looked at beyond the era of capitalism.

The real reason for the argument is that they do not want to give trans people a higher stage of social recognition, which has happened to other minorities before. Maybe pointing out that people said the exact same thing about the term “straight” would work? It is also pretty easy to make fun of them by making them say they are not cis, and then acting like they just came out to you.

It’s pretty liberal sadly, but it’s still worth playing if you are into Persona-like JRPGs.

In the EU they have to sell it as “pink cocaine-like drug”

Hexbear is full of liberal tankies that want to destroy the US constitution (I’m trying to make a site tagline here)

The competitive gamer impulse to reflexively blame your team is so funny, I watched a top-level Deadlock pub player lose to backdooring, and while it was still happening he goes “dogshit team not paying attention”, but the twist here is that he was also himself too late to react to stop the backdooring.

Didn’t you hear he died in 2022 (throat slashed)? He even had an in memoriam during that year’s Superbowl, between the Mcdonald’s and Burger King ads.

It’s really telling that it’s always Slaanesh these people choose to over-dedicate themselves to, rancid vibes
