I saw the Grifter - this world-soul - riding out of the city on a con game.

It is indeed a wonderful sensation to see such an individual, who, concentrated here at a single point, astride a shell company, reaches out over the world and scams it.

I wonder if they'll adapt the Booty Warrior incident

I wonder if whoever named it that was completely clueless about what they'd done, or if they were secretly cool.

As for myself, I got brainwashed by Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 and now I yearn for the day I can drop bombs on the Statue of Liberty from my attack zeppelin.

If a deal is made in the forest and there's no one around to hear to it, does the strait reopen?

Or perhaps consider: What is the sound of one hand shaking?

Wow, this map is making me even angrier than I thought I needed to be. What an unbelievable fucking waste of space.

I have a vivid dream of taking this wretched isle in a firm hand, banning all animal products and just shooting the first thousand people who complain. Along with many other changes.

What's that phrase again? Live by the sword... something something... you can sell as many swords as you like anywhere any time.

Las Malvinas son Españolas

It's about the adventures of the Joestar (yes, "Joe-Star") family across the course of multiple generations, with each part - more-or-less self-contained series, of which there are now nine in manga, six of which have finished anime adaptations and the seventh of which is coming out at the moment - following a different descendant of the original main character, Jonathan Joestar, as they fight various supernatural forces of evil across the world.

The first part was written in the 80s and is in some ways a parody of certain manga coming out at the time, mainly Fist of the North Star, but it develops into so much more. I definitely recommend watching the anime, the first two parts are adapted into a single 26 episode series that should give you the flavor of what to expect with the rest. The next part is almost double the length at 48 episodes, and some consider it a bit of a slog in the middle, but it's still very good. Then the next three series, the adaptations of parts 4, 5 and 6, are extremely good and have maybe some of the best episodes of anime I've seen. Part 7 is coming out now and looks to be equally as good, although hamstrung by Netflix's Bizarre release schedule.

It's a big commitment to watch all of it, but as a whole it's probably one of my favorite animes.

stalin-approval I will join!

 

now that it turns out it's 'racist white men'.

Also just learned it's a quote from a white nationalist neonazi in 1993, I never saw it used for anything other than antisemitic dogwhistling but I assumed the phrase was stolen from some liberal philosopher and taken out of a specific historical context... but no, just a neonazi.

 

Lo, did King Georgius of the Hedge, second of his name, perforce, in expansion of his realm, commission that this deed be done.

 

This story sets my blood absolutely boiling every time it comes up. A 15 year old girl was sex trafficked to Syrian extremists, by a people-smuggling ring run by a man later discovered to be a Canadian intelligence asset, was "married" within 10 days of arriving in Syria, had three children before she was 19 all of whom died, and the day after she was discovered alive in a refugee camp and expressed her wish to come home, she was illegally made stateless by the Home Secretary revoking her British passport in the name of """protecting national security""".

And these savages are literally baying for her blood, gleefully pointing out "It's not illegal because she's not stateless, she can go to Bangladesh, oh but they dispute that she's a citizen and they've said if she goes there they'll hang her for terrorism! Hahaha! pLaY sTuPid GaMeS " smuglord

but she still has extremist beliefs and won't condemn ISIS

OF COURSE SHE FUCKING DOES, SHE'S LIVED IN A TENT IN THE DESERT SINCE SHE WAS 15. HOW COULD SHE POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN DERADICALIZED?? Oh, some fucking "anonymous source" in the Telegraph says she was "an 'enforcer' in IS's 'morality police'"? That's fucked up, did she like do anything or kill anyone though? No? Of course not.

These same fucking people will then turn around and shed their crocodile tears about oppression in Xinjiang. If she was Chinese she'd have been brought back, put in a deradicalization center for a few months to a year, given teaching on why her extreme beliefs were wrong along with some education and training, and now she'd be working in a garment factory or something, with a long and normal life ahead of her. Instead the compassionate, civilized West has condemned her to a legal black hole, trapped with no future in the desert camp that her children died in, for the crime of being kidnapped as a child by our own spies, to an extremist organization that, as we all know here, is a US project.

The whole thing is a perfect encapsulation of the inherent brutal, savage cruelty and criminality of western regimes and the bootlickers in their population. I try to remind myself that there are good people here who also think this is a travesty, but when I read this thread I can only get a few comments in before I get the urge, like bile rising up my throat, to scream UNLIMITED GENOCIDE ON THE FIRST WORLD.

inshallah-script the forgiveness they have shown her, will in turn one day be shown to them.

 

Redditors react to a video of a bike ride around Pyongyang

Video: the most normal city ever filmed

Redditors: So spooky! Everything looks... wrong! This guy is taking his life in his hands to film this! avgn-horror

Also Redditors: Looks too normal, this has to be staged, they're actors and this is a propaganda channel! phoenix-objection-1phoenix-objection-1


Side note: my tolerance for western bullshit on the DPRK has reached the negatives, five seconds in these comments and you can cook an egg with my blood. Salute to the small handful of brave comrades pushing back on propaganda in the replies kim-salute

 

Laugh! Laugh at the inferiority of the untermenschen-crafted weapon! soypoint-2

Featuring such golden comment chains as:

One a/c on the assembly line. Look at manufacturing sites for F-35 and F-22. Dozens of aircraft lined up. That’s the difference.

That’s the first thing I noticed. Russian industrial capacity has literally collapsed, I never realized they were this weak. Compare that to their Chinese allies who have been able to produce an impressive number of J20s pretty fast even though the SU57 had its test flight earlier

Too many people stealing money and limiting their capabilities. Good lol*

*not like our trustworthy Raytheons and Northrop-Grummans, of course edgeworth-smug

 

For when you spy that fash-on-fash violence.

(Great minds think alike but this one has no background)
