Fucking hell. In the thread about Disco Elysium's comment.
the worst thing that ever happened to my country was capitalism. i've suffered horribly because of our capitalist system and the way it dehumanizes people and strips them of their basic needs and i know of others who've suffered and even died because of it. why is everything bad that happens in a country with a Communist-led government socialism's fault, but the suffering that happens in a capitalist country isn't because of capitalism?
or, better yet. the reason you're suffering isn't because of capitalism– it's because we don't have real capitalism.
What country out of interest?
the United States
That era thread is everyone jacking themselves off over communism, meanwhile my Czech sister in law is telling me horror stories about her mum being beaten for being left handed and being put into re-education classes to make her more of a socialist snitch comrade
We did that here too when my grandma was alive. Left handed freaks to be fair, she learn to be right handed!
But the thread is pretty funny cause Disco Elysium does also does provide a pretty critical view of communism (and most other ideologies really...). But most seem to instantly equivalate the Karl Marx and Engels mention, to them being down with everything that happened in the name of communism. The classic black and white look at everything. The none Boogie way.

Reminds me of when people shat on Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri claiming that Sam Rockwell's character's lone existence is the writer endorsing said character. We can only have stories about good guys taking down bad guys nowadays.
The "racist white guy is allowed to become a sympathetic protagonist by being slightly less racist" storyline didn't actually break new ground
By Facism Go To PostThat era thread is everyone jacking themselves off over communism, meanwhile my Czech sister in law is telling me horror stories about her mum being beaten for being left handed and being put into re-education classes to make her more of a socialist snitch comradeBeating the left handedness out of kids wasn't unusual in the past, I know they used to punish you for blessing yourself with your left hand around here.
My grandma said she was hit so hard in the head, with a book from a teacher, that she passed out while bicycling home after it. All because she forgot to use her right hand.
and these days I cant even tell kids they are shit heads at my school.

By RrusheR Go To PostMovie wasn't about a racist white guy changing.but this
It's a really bizarre interpretation to feel disgust at the character and use that to believe the writer was endorsing the behavior because of his mere existence.
I don't know what's worse online the conflation of socialism and communism as one or deaths attributed to communism while ignoring imperialism and whole scale wars in the score counts against capitalism.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostI don't know what's worse online the conflation of socialism and communism as one or deaths attributed to communism while ignoring imperialism and whole scale wars in the score counts against capitalism.It would be kinda like saying imperialism is exclusively a trait of capitalism.
By diehard Go To PostIt would be kinda like saying imperialism is exclusively a trait of capitalism.If all of Africa were to unite and become an empire, which system would it choose for that to be a reality?
32GB of Ram. 24/28 max is usable by devs. I would love for all consoles to become as open as iOS/Android. Like offer the sdk for like $100-500/year license fee. That would be amazing.
By Lunatic Go To PostPlease guys don't upset flabber. Dude is a legitimate Marxist.No one cares

By Xpike Go To Postxbox is kinda deadIt's in the news everywhere and people are talking about it, who is this "no one"?
no one gave a shit about the xbox reveal
There is acknowledging that a thing occurred like a launch or news and noticing most are kind of "meh" about it or busy photoshopping the damn thing as fridges or brutalist architecture.

I could play just a few minutes of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice before having to quit out. Shit is mad unsettling with headphones.
phantom doctrine is 4 bux on the nintando eshop, apparently was shit at launch but maybe it's better now?

Smokey counts doesn’t he?
By Fenderputty Go To PostSmokey counts doesn’t he?Smokey doesn't play games.
By Pennywise Go To PostSmokey doesn't play games.
He buys the hardware though. He’s gonna be a full time Nintendo gamer with me and our kids in a year or more anyway
You can make shit like that work at my mmr if you actually occupy the lanes properly. LC jungled from the very beginning leaving Underlord on his own, and PA's farm was shit so I ended up being able to flit from lane to lane getting the odd pick-off and farm, without worrying about being ganked. Probably should have made better use of that early advantage, I'm aiming for 23 minute Radiance on Spectre but it took about 27 I think, partly because I got a vambrace recipe so bought another wraith band. That period of saving up for the sacred relic is painful but necessary. The most expensive item up to that point is 1100 gold, then suddenly you're trying to crawl towards 3800.
