Considering they spent the last cycle courting the endless wars & unlimited genocide caucus, it would actually be an improvement tbh

It is the children who are wrong.

I saw him answer that question by saying that he’s against sanctions on principle, look at how much damage they’re doing to Cuba etc. Unreal.

Did the title of the video change? I swear I saw it say “genocide” instead of “war” when I loaded YouTube this morning…

If Trump wins, he will dismantle all of America’s institutions, declare himself God Emperor for life and genocide all minorities.

If Kamala wins, she won’t be able to do anything unless the republicans let her.

On the plus side, if they’ve now adopted “build the wall”, we might only be eight years away from “lock her up” being official dem policy.

There is the unfortunate fact that I do think the American people are just genuinely more right wing on certain topics than we care to admit, I.e. immigration and trans rights.

I don’t think these reactionary ideas fell out of a coconut tree.

We can only ever expect the managerial class to double-down on mediocrity.

The Labour Party that won 33% of an election that had an almost record-low turnout. lmao.

“Honesty on economy” means that they admitted that they had “no choice” but to economically spank the country. Luckily, Britain’s really into that.

I want to believe it represents the UK itself.

I’m not of that age, but imo it’s more a technological thing than a generational thing. People, of any age, cannot put their phones down. I personally have to make the conscious decision to disconnect if I’m going to read something or watch a movie or whatever. I imagine that for people who grew up with smartphones, that’s like cutting off a limb.

The later entries in the series from the looks of it lean heavy into the Shonen look with weeb fanservice.

Artstyle wise, maybe, especially 2. All three have a lot of Saturday Morning Cartoon nonsense going on, though. Silly schoolyard bully villains hamming it up, lots of “fights” that involve characters standing around and talking about their Special Power or whatever.

3 probably has the least of that, and of the “fanservice” of the type I think you mean, and is possibly the most like Xenogears. But still not the same thing (but maybe if Xenogears was made today it would be like Xenoblade anyway - maybe the real difference is in fidelity and amount of acting etc., I dunno! Some things that work when read don’t when heard…). Honestly, I think the biggest similarity between 3 and Gears is that the makers once again tried to do something immense and profound and kind of whiffed. But still totally worth experiencing even though it’s compromised. Pretty pro-communist as well. Amusingly so.

The French.

The idea is that if you can receive live television, you have to pay it. The license funds the official state propaganda apparatus.

They like to make a lot of threatening noises about how they can detect that you’re viewing live TV or whatever, but it’s all nonsense. They send “officers” out to check (these are people most likely employed by firms like Crapita that magically receive all government contracts regardless of the nature of the work). People don’t have to let them in, although the officers like to pretend otherwise. In rare cases they can get a warrant to enter, in which case they are accompanied by pigs.

I believe we’re allowed to avoid paying even if we have a TV as long as the TV isn’t hooked up to a device that can receive live television. The existence of the internet makes this confusing.

I had 1% hope, and I still feel stupid for it.

His previous work proves he didn’t need the stroke to come up with this take.

Here we have the king of libs himself admitting that his most erotic fantasy is to see democrats rally around a republican.
