I can almost guarantee that thing is a single mother, and the odds are also good that whatever relatives still talk to her will not be willing to take in a child.

That said, foster care is still probably a better solution for society at that point. Things like her cannot be told they are free from the consequences of their actions, and for the child foster care into hopefully a two parent situation is a side grade at worst and potentially a big upgrade.

The chick is obviously incredibly drunk. Which it's weird that everyone is taking her as a reliable source. She genuinely sounds confused by her own age and takes two goes to get it right.

She may well be 26 just too drunk to communicate it, or she's started early with the drunkenly lying about her age on a whim, without thinking about the plausibility.

I mean sessler's infamous for his proclivity for addiction, be it marching powder, validation or insane cult dogma. That man's ability to restrain himself is non-existant

It was a huge switch. I'm not under the impression that we got here from just one wrong turn, but it definitely was one of them.

I mean suffrage is more than just voting rights, it's also a proxy for allowing them greater access to the national levers of power, like being judges and senators.

But besides that, I think if you have a democracy and suddenly half the population start voting for cowards and liars because they match their sensibilities better, then that democracy becomes a lot more likely to fall to irreparable corruption.

Welp, since the last post on the subject got deleted I'll say it again.

The West was great long before women's suffrage, from 1760 onwards really. That the greatness managed to limp along for the last century before crumbling is agnostic or in spite of women voting.

Gotta love the myopia that if you start to doubt the propaganda about girlbosses you've suddenly converted to Islam. You can still hate their pedo-praising cousin-lovin goatfucker culture even if you stop fetishizing women.

That's the problem with appealing to conservatism in only the most literal sense, why should we conserve feminism in it's current metastasized state as a tradition? Just because it currently exists? Why is that seen as a loss rather than preserving the traditions of the 19th century that saw the west on a meteoric rise instead of a slow disintegration?

It might not be a very effective standalone tool, but it certainly adds options.

Imagine you have some combatants pinned in cover/a small building. You just have to aim at the exits and send in the hot-dog to flush them out.

I suspect it’s partly about getting everything they want already.

Personally I chalk most of it up to them being both anxiety crippled wrecks and useless retards. Driving is too complicated and stressful for their hamstrung mental capacity, so their anxiety avoidance kicks in and they run away from the prospect.

The absolute mental destruction the school system has wrought on kids for the last few decades is starting to get apparent on the roads these days.

I've legit seen what looked a 20-something woman crash their car into a post trying to turn from a stoplight. Nothing around, just incapable of navigating a normal bend from stopped. I don't even think they were chemically influenced at the time, they looked alert when they got out, they're just that useless.

Considering hers is the only one that is also just the name of the anime, those are rookie numbers by frieren.

Also lol at Nobara's RIP search spike, blew up like she did.

Kids are also way more likely to just constantly Google everything in the game too. They do not bookmark a wiki, just Google search to find the same site every time, and most don't have any capacity at all for figuring things out themselves.

Yeah as long as she steals a course framework from a good professor I don't doubt she'll replicate it to the letter.

Ah nothing says alpha like getting shamed by a twitter nobody into doing what they're told to do.

What are the odds that everyone just knows that "Roberta" with the pink tape measure is a neurotic psycho and not worth interacting with?

It's the nation-state equivalent of two guys being just mad enough to want to have a knock-down fight, but not stomping the other guy to death after they're down.

Rationally it's kinda dumb, but it does seem to be human nature to consider a straight fight honorable only up until the point the other side can't defend themselves anymore.

"I should say here that I am a visibly observant Jew who wears a large Star of David around my neck"

Gets poked in the eyelid with a blunt object and suffers no injury.

Screams "I've been stabbed in the eye!" and takes themselves to hospital to spend a day sobbing and wailing online.

It's honestly impressive when wearing a star of David is the least stereotypically Jewish thing you're doing.

I thought not wanting others to succeed because you're not personally getting a piece of that success yourself was a commie only mindset.

You're not wrong on the socially retarded part, relative to the west. But is that really all thar bad? It's always going to be an approximate bellcurve, so increasing the average social skills also increases the number of socially adept, manipulative drama whores. I'm kind of sick of the Western plague of hypersocial parasites with no productive skills beyond grifting, frankly I wouldn't mind some more socially retarded autists with actual job skills if it means exterminating influencers like the cockroaches they are.

I've said it elsewhere, but this may not be what it seems so I'm gonna wait and see.

Vavra is kind of a troll, he especially loves screwing with journalists, and he does seem to embrace controversy marketing.

I wouldn't put it past him to try and bait the journos into reporting on KCD2 with the diversity buzzword. Then to later reveal details that show that, whilst technically true, it's entirely the wrong kind of "diversity" after they start reporting on it.

I'll hold fire on judgement yet.

The lead guy does seem to enjoy his pranks, especially screwing with journalists. I wouldn't put it past him to try and bait them with this just to later reveal details that show it's not the right kind of "diversity" for their cult after they start reporting on it.
