they will never retire it, it's one of the most effective propaganda tools.

the things that they say are normally pretty cringe, frankly not funny, and oftentimes completely wrong. but add a laugh track to it, and suddenly it becomes the most convincing shit. people love being part of the audience ridiculing whatever the TV man is ridiculing.

depends on the person.

for sword nerds, the most famous person is probably musashi miyamoto.

for video game nerds, the most famous person is probably shigeru miyamoto.

for WWII history buffs, they might point to Yamamoto or Tojo

for those plugged into the culture war (which are not many), it's probably Yasuke. Yasuke is definitely one of the most talked about figures in the culture war, but I guarantee the larger public will forget his name a year from now. my speech-to-text does not even recognize the name.

I would disagree. in my observation, most people aren't plugged into the Yasuke drama. Assassin's Creed in and of itself has no cultural relevance outside of the gaming sphere (and hardly any in the gaming sphere for that matter), so most normies don't even know about it.

because OP is too lazy to take the 30 seconds to even post the link, let alone archive.

I would be surprised if they aren't doing that

how would someone get past the bot filters that sites like YouTube have? do you just delay login requests so that it doesn't trigger a captcha?

fascinating. wondering if he had anything to say about the whole debacle that the feds didn't want getting out?

Steven Paddock's brother comes to mind.

major breach of journalistic ethics.

there aren't any. actual journalism is dead, frankly I don't think it was ever alive.

hey, the choice was between a JPEG and an archive, the possibility of a link post was never brought up.

I'll always encourage archiving, but posting the link is the bare minimum. screenshot posters get the rope

you must have been using a shitty archive site, or the website compatibility was low.

if you can't archive, at least post the link
