@EliasofNE everyone is saying empathy and not because being right wing is incredibly fucking lame and involves being mad over silly shit all the time, which I don't have time for
Portland, Oregon. Over the last 20 years, many of the "rough" parts of town are now unrecognizable, while the previously "nice" parts of town are becoming ghost towns.
Seeing the Selective killing of communities and economic sacrifice zones/gentrification back home in Houston is really bizarre. There are places 20 years ago you didn’t go to that have Crumbl cookies everywhere. But also places that were “nice” 20 years ago are totally abandoned
@vnknownmc@ChazakielDoremi Knee-jerk is yes, help a friend forever if the line was my help or being homeless. And then I think. I live in a 350 sq foot apartment I work 40 hours a week to afford with a 2 month buffer in savings. The choice would be get kicked out, or give over my tiny bit of security.
California is the terminus of "the West" and to move east from here would be a crime against the teleology of its foundational mythos. Everyone born in this sunset land is denied the very same absolution upon which the myth stands. Where do you go when there's nowhere left to go?
@specifism@Emiliezcs lmao you realize "the left" is not an organized or threatening block of political power in the US, at least as far as the people locking Liugi up are concerned. what exactly was supposed to happen
@halo2mappack dont get me wrong, CP77 not left in its messaging, but if you think any of the endings are meant to be taken as"good" I think your media literacy might need some work. If anything, the game does a sort of reactionary nihilism that accidentally echoes mark fisher
@Depl0rableSc0ut@PpollingNumbers violent crime in america is at historic lows and young people are the first american generation to be less wealthy than their parents, while also being the most productive generation in history. you can ignore material reality all you want, but it will come for you all the same
@scrungeonmaster nothing bothers macho men like seeing a funky bisexual in a cropped tee with a baddie hanging on them. shits either (enrage) or (suggestion)
@n1ch0lasgurr@nikicaga Modern AA guns, modern strike fighter jets, modern anti-submarine frigates? There's no way the Whermact can ever get air or sea superiority, so their casualties would be catastrophic. The real question is does modern Denmark physically posses enough munitions?
@jk12330867231@ArmchairW dog what the fuck are you talking about. Iran, one of the most mountainous countries in the world that has been preparing for invasion for like half a century doesn't have infrastructure for drone operators to hide in?
