Deadly Premonition. It has a cast of very charming and surprisingly well written characters alongside a fascinating mindfuck of a story that is very much unlike anything else I've ever experienced. Heavily inspired by David Lynch's Twin Peaks and the closest I've seen another piece of media come to recapturing its dreamy, surreal vibes. Has a cult following despite being an absolutely shit game by all reasonable metrics. The combat is atrocious, it's unfathomably buggy, you're forced to drive between locations in a janky ass car, and the driving is like pulling teeth. It's really quite an unpleasant game to play for many reasons, and that's if you even get the game to run; the PC port is basically unplayable and requires a fuckton of fiddling on newer systems. Despite all that, it's an experience I remember very fondly. Just don't know if I'll be booting it up for another run in the next decade.

Yeah, the average individual denouncing the actions of Hamas are reacting to headlines that describe them as terrorists and child murderers.

"They have a right to freedom, but they shouldn't be killing innocent people"

If MSM rightfully framed it as a rebellion against an ongoing effort to colonize and ethnically cleanse Palestine, then I highly doubt you'd hear quite this many people spouting totally uninformed drivel in support of Israel.

I'm not sure how they're going to eliminate the boom bust cycle when it's an inherent part of a capitalist economy. Turns out business owners don't like giving up their ability to squeeze the life from their employees and pay them the smallest amount possible when the only goal is profit and growth.

Extremism is when you think human rights are actually pretty cool

They do this every time.

"They're genociding people left and right!"

...

"Well if you read this bit it says they were kinda actually assholes"

They will walk back whatever they say until they are saying nothing at all. You'd think through this process they'd come to realize how little evidence they have and self-evaluate, but...

I don't know how we'll coordinate our brigades without Facebook. I am totally lost.

Someone should make some kind of social media platform for Hexbear users where they can post about whatever they want without needing Facebook. Oh, and it would be cool if we could "federate" that yet-to-be platform with the platforms we intend to attack for ease of access and stuff, you know? That would be sick.

Yes, I acknowledge the system is broken, our democratic rights are actively being whittled away as we are pulled deeper and deeper into the maw of a beast that treats us as expendable resources meant only to line the pockets of the ultra-wealthy. We're given the smallest necessary concessions by a slew of invariably corrupt political hacks to placate the masses and obfuscate atrocity after atrocity in their endless quest for the violent exploitation of every living being below them.

THAT'S WHY I VOTED DARK BRANDON THIS ELECTION, BLUE WAVE ROLLLLLL

That's one of the more embarrassing things I've seen an adult write on the internet

Whenever leftists post outside of their home instance it inevitably breaks down into a rehashed version of "This is America, why can't you speak American?"

You know, I've read exactly one comment from you, ReakDuck, and It would be a bit silly if I assumed from this single comment that your entire life to this point has been paranoid whingeing about Russian bots.

"Russia and China love to manipulate and do everything to convince people that what they are doing is great"

If it's a matter of propaganda, I hope you understand that America is perfectly capable of churning out plenty of absolute pig shit on its own. All large nations with their own media ecosystems employ propaganda as a means of placation, diversion, and general control. Do you worry about the people who agree with you being bots, too? Aren't your online peers just as likely to be bots? Do you think your particular party or associates don't employ the same trickery as everyone else? How have they stayed competitive?

Furthermore, what proof would you require to know I'm not a bot? No amount of personal information is beyond manufacturing. I could even send you a social security number and valid identification and you could say I stole it. Do you see where I'm going with this? That rationale of yours is a catch-all justification of complete dismissal. One can protect themselves from any dissenting opinions if they can convince themselves that the other person writing to them is a bot. There's nothing they can say or do to prove such an assertion wrong short of showing up at your house and shitting on your lawn.

I believe you should challenge the rhetoric being presented to you instead of protecting your own through frivolous dismissals, but I don't know why I've wasted all my time writing this response to a lib bot.
