A World Cup is supposed to be showcase for the host nation and this is a showcase for ‘America’. They’re showing how much they hate the world. Like China’s Olympics was a ‘coming out’ party to the world, this is a ‘party’s over’ message from ‘America’.
@LordBalvin They have to be aware at this point that any time they roll out a trailer for an update for ESO or FO76 at one of these things it just pisses people off, right? Like they can’t be oblivious to the fact that when people see “Bethesda Presents” they want an actual game announcement
On this Memorial Day, let’s remember how fucking awesome the Viet Cong were for humiliating the US army & creating an entire generation of PTSD ridden losers who now send their equally stupid sons and daughters to kill & die for the military industrial complex.
@LibyaLiberty How the hell is an “eighth generation Israeli” even possible? The country hasn’t even been around for 8 decades yet, much less “8 generations”.
I don't understand why only a few people, like Mathew Gross, understand just how bad this whole combination of Super El Niño on top of out of control climate change + fertilizer shortages and energy crisis all hitting at the same time is going to actually be. It kind of reminds me of the flooding situation that forecasters were warning about in the Carolinas ahead of Helene- everyone was just kind of like, ok, we get it, there's going to be a lot of rain, but nobody could comprehend just how terrible the situation was going to actually get until 3-4 days after all the missing people couldn't be found alive. If you have any friends in places around the world where famine could hit later this year, please make them aware of how bad it's going to get, and make sure they have a plan to stay alive!
@comunadememes@madison_tayt A quote that has always stuck with me is “If you study enough history, you will become one of two things, a Marxist or a liar”.
Let's split a country into half Communist and half Capitalist and see which does better.
And then the capitalist half becomes a US puppet Chaebol dictatorship, with one of the worlds highest suicide rates, and media like Squid Game and Parasite that are cries for help.
