It's funny that he's doing this to white people.

NATO hasn't dissolved. This will be a situation where EU and US will fight and disagree on Greenland, but continue to support the rest of the imperialist project. However, the contradictions are growing, and will eventually become unsustainable.

I don't know about the old games, but from Fallout 3 onwards, they always had anti-communism in it.

Yeah, I wish I could go on vacation forever. I don't like my current job and my idiotic manager.

My first emotional response is of course, wanting Venezuela to lash out against the US militarily, this is an act of war after all. But after thinking more rationally, maybe the US is doing this to demoralize Venezuelans, because they can't sustain a prolonged war against Venezuela. They would have to support Ukraine, Israel and now a new war. It's just not feasible, so I think they're relying on intimidation tactics to accomplish their goal of regime change.

Also, Maduro being kidnapped after trying to compromise with the US about Venezuelan oil, is a cautionary tale for world leaders who think they can negotiate with the empire. The empire does not negotiate, the empire does not compromise, the empire must take everything they possibly can.

Oh no! Poor people will be able to eat the same food as rich people! The tragedy!

I miss this game. It was ruined to me when Valve dropped the dreadful MyM update. It just broke it completely.

One thing I noticed in life, is that some people can be geniuses at one particular thing and suck at everything else. Just because they're good at programming doesn't say much about them. Maybe it's the only thing they're good at in life. Also, age and experience matter.

If you look at Valve's Glassdoor reviews, you'll quickly realize that the "work wherever you like policy" is a lie. It's just another corporation that has a monopoly on selling games.

The interesting part, is that gamers often argue in favor of Valve's monopoly. This is because it's convenient to have all the games in one place, rather than having to cycle through multiple accounts and stores to play different games. It kind of defeats the liberal argument of competition is always better.

Seems like you are describing narcissists. It can be particularly infuriating or agonizing if they target you, and only you get exposed to their dark side.

I kinda like Christmas, even though I'm an atheist. I just don't understand why some people go crazy about New Year's though.

Sorry, but which oligarchs? The SU shouldn't have any oligarchs.

 

I'm sure some of you have seen these types of posts. We can't expect much from the idiots that write these articles. But there have been multiple posts on Twitter, of supposedly massive Chinese internment camps.

If we know something about the Chinese government is that they plan ahead. They know that if they open the economy, they'll have a colossal number of infections. These buildings are very likely hospitals or quarantine zones where the infected will be sent to receive appropriate medical care.

Of course Westoids can't imagine what it's like to live in a country where the government actually thinks of the future and cares about the lives of it's own people. So their conclusions are as shortsighted as their governments.

I think the Chinese government is going to do a full reopening of the country and try to be as ready as possible, since their economy can't continue to operate like this. What do you guys think?
