Go report the Wikipedia page for Kilroy Was Here for not being complex enough to be culturally significant (despite its actual cultural significance), I guess.

Oh my god look at all the allies hitler had. /s Even the US wanted to help them out with operation paperclip. Maybe the fact that the Soviets killed 75% of Nazis was just a bit of nazi infighting in your eyes.

[edit] lol whoops by the time I found the image and posted, cowbee had already made a much better comment with the same image

Hey maybe stop calling people speaking a language other than their native language illiterate if you’re trying to not seem racist.

(Not that what they said is off topic at all- it just seemed like you needed an excuse not to engage with the points they brought up directly, so you default to smug chauvinism as a smokescreen.)

This is so flagrant it feels like bait.

"Either hundreds of millions of people have always predisposed to the lure of the fascist, in which case the entire democratic endeavor is doomed anyway, or something of corporate liberalism has brought us here. Whatever the quality of its rhetoric, any politics that buckles at the prospect of even mildly inconveniencing the rich, or resisting an ally's genocidal intentions, will always face an uphill battle against a politics that actively embraces malice. "Yes We Can" is a conditional. "Yes We Will" is not."

Back in the day, Avid (the company that makes professional software like media composer and pro tools) sold a NAS system called ISIS (Infinitely Scalable Intelligent Storage). The studio I worked at had a different system, but the head of post production still called it “the ISIS” because he got used to calling the network storage that.

And now for the final question of our game which always pertains to real life skills. Buzz in if you can find the incorrect part of this statement: "Developing an accurate view of the world is difficult if you don't have a method to verify information. One surefire way to know what's going on thousands of miles away is to trust anonymous sources and NGOs at their word when they tell you through western mass media and without any proof that our adversaries are doing evil things."

I've been in the process of making a powerpoint-esque presentation to show to my friends who haven't read any theory and the thought of framing and organizing it as "bitter pills" is super exciting to me. Starting out the presentation with definitions and history would've made them fall asleep.

I'm convinced (based off interactions I've had on NextDoor) a lot of people think capitalism=uses money. But also that socialism/communism=failed/corrupted capitalism. China looking better than the USA nowadays means they have to be capitalist since they obviously aren't failing.
