Oh they still have to leave at the end, the US' biggest mistake was believing the fairytale of peaceful melting pot coexistence as an excuse to take the easy way out half way through, instead of deporting them as even the emancipators with any political foresight argued for. Plenty of other nations and empires had way more slaves for way longer without these problems because they understood that the default outcome for a slave is not assimilation, that is the exception.

But sending them back without a disincentive against returning doesn't work either. A couple years of hard labor should stop the revolving door. Even if you want to argue bringing them over in the first place was still the US' biggest mistake, they're already here. Getting an economic boon in addition to giving a strong "and don't come back!" kick in the ass out the door is just a win/win

They've already been leeching for years, they owe a debt before they get to leave and indentured servitude seems like a fair settlement.

Just imagine how much more competitive domestic manufacturing could be if they didn't have to worry about labour costs or safety equipment.

This is like going after Capone for tax evasion.

But it does show that those emergency use liability waivers are just pieces of paper. If push came to shove gov officials would sooner throw Pfizer under a bus than keep their own word at risk of losing everything. The politicians just need pushing hard enough they get scared and we may yet see justice in our lifetimes.

Well there were a lot of fat useless idiots in that film... Pretty sure the usual suspects managed to relate on some subconscious level.

I'd hardly say uncritical, there's loads of "indie" games that I'm pretty sure almost everyone here knows are garbage. Pretty much any indie game not backed by a big publisher that gets coverage in the obsolete gaming press is obviously immediately suspect. And on the flip side the games that blow up from weird parasocial streamer/YouTube trend chasing are also red flags.

It's just obvious that the only hope for actual good games is from indie development. Anywhere publicly traded and HR infested has essentially no chance of producing anything free from globalist agenda pushing, and minimal chance of producing anything playable underneath that slop. Being indie doesn't guarantee that either, but at least it's not a foregone conclusion.

I mean it's almost all young men from other ethnicities committing violent crime too, although youth violence is typically slightly more pronounced in black demographics than others.

It's all percentages relative to other demographics so if you're cutting down to only young men of black ethnicity then you should cut down to only young men of other ethnicities, at which point you're back to ~13% of the total sample size.

If not more like 15+% at that point, since black birth rates have been higher for the last couple of decades as well as doing a worse job of surviving into old age, so they have an overall younger age distribution.

Oooh, you mean Marvel Midnight Suns.

For a second I thought someone had made a WH40K game that had gone under my radar and was ready to lament another mediocre game in their roster.

Once again I am willing to self nominate under the exclusive remit of only nuking these obvious spam troll accounts. I usually see their OPs within a few hours.

I'm not keen on spotlighting people who haven't volunteered, for garbage work like this, and in this thread a few weeks ago I think a lot of the active old timers have already recused themselves.

Both terms are kinda weak. Neither is inherently negative in its component make-up and requires outside context to understand the full intent. Woke especially is cringe inducing for how lame it makes you look.

"Political correctness" on the surface is barely a criticism, it slightly implies selfish motivation and gives them the undue credit of being correct in the pragmatic machiavellian sense. It's a passive aggressive bitch move at best. No wonder the British loved it.

Woke in an autistic sense is positive. It implies alertness and awareness. Better to be awake than asleep on the job etc. And the cultural context is just a lefty version of red pilled- it meant "awakened to the systems of oppression". Which in reality is completely the opposite of what the DIE deluded psychos are, helping destroy the common man's dream of being anything but a slave. So using it as an insult either you're ignorant of the etymology or you're using it ironically like an early 2000s hipster cunt, neither are particularly respectable.

They love to play word games, so don't give them softballs like that. At least label them with something inherently negative and make them work to try and save face.

I don't really have one encompassing word for it because their flaws are just too numerous to compress that much, you lose too much resolution. I just cycle through a bunch and tailor it to the specific breed of asshole I'm describing at the time.

The useful idiots are NPCs, gullible retards, blind drones and cultists.

The politicians/activist leaders are parasites, con-artists, wouldbe tyrants and habitual liars

Their ideology is a death cult, white/man/straight hatred and chronically deluded.

Listening again with some proper headphones and after the "there's a seat right there!" it seems she's shouting "you came into my place when I sat down!" and just after "you fucking broke my tablet you fucking piece of garbage".

So I guess they shoved/bumped into her, maybe tried to take the seat, and her tablet got cracked or something.

Eh, I've seen perfectly reasonable women hit midlife discontent in their 40s and suddenly fall for the venom telling them it's all men's fault and reverse course completely.

The sisterhood groupthink is a powerful drug, and like other drugs it's most dangerously alluring when you're at a low point in life.

Thanks men, whilst throwing garbage at them. She's lucky not all demographics resort to violence so easily or she'd have gotten a third ass beating.

Her balance looks fine until she gets her shit rocked the first time, probably more punch drunk than real drunk. New York women don't need to be drunk to start randomly screaming at people for being too close, they have 0% filter.

Yeah he basically wrote a suicide note with that application in Pakistan. The doctors are right, he's crazy.

The seed may have been planted though. Some time, maybe years from now, he'll mildly inconvenience her on a bad day again and she'll think back that maybe those redditors were right that she is being oppressed, and should rightfully take everything from him for doing that.

The greed and selfishness that feminists cheer for is a slow and insidious rot.

Don't even need to generalize, that leaves them too much weasel room. He, the spineless sellout, specifically cannot leave fast enough.

She bitching mostly about theatre kids. I most certainly do not identify with the theatre kids. Sure she mentions nerds and anime once, but the venom with which she repeatedly mentions theatre kids shows where her complaints mainly lie.

And she's half wrong, theatre kids are not becoming legislators.

But she's half right that they are the ones who disproportionately become celebrities, twitter personalities and social media influencers. Which is why she's so fucking mad about it, because she wishes she could be the useless parasocial layabout and thinks she deserves it more than the loser theatre kids. Even though she's just a cheerleader who aged out of the squad and now has fewer social skills than the paint licking theatre kids.

Medium posts by cat urine soaked nobodies aren't known for their high quality discourse. But we do have another glaring example of just how much of their life is pure, lighthouse powerlevel projection.

They need to be “raised” still, which is why they’ll benefit from the wisdom of an older partner.

Nothing says "Daddy never raised me" quite like documenting your burning hatred of men and their happiness in a useless blog.

"Unfortunate accident" apparently, so probably more in the vein of slipped in the bathtub or drilled into a mains wire. Although... that is also how a lot of autoerotic asphyxiation deaths have been described.

This game is currently in a f2p open beta. I don't think they have a preorder so you couldn't even pay for it if you tried

It's a bit of a twist on "cui bono", but what possible benefit did the stabbing derive her? No money was taken, she didn't know them personally to hate them on a personal level, she is allegedly mentally competent, it was targeted -not a stabbing spree, if she wanted to be jailed she could do something far less likely to get her killed.

Intense racial hatred is one of the few possible motives left, and one with great recent precedent.

Wouldn't downvote it but he's not exactly using hardware lottery correctly as I understand it. He seems to be talking about just general hardware compatibility problems with Linux.

Hardware lottery as I know it is for intra product variability. Buying the same product from the same manufacturer guarantees the same rated minimum performance, but in reality no two pieces of silicone are exactly identical and each individual card/chip has it's own potential overclocking limit. You have no control over what you get, all you can do is cross your fingers and hope you win the hardware lottery and get a chip that can overclock especially high.

At the very least pvpve is likely to leverage some of their MMO experience better than other types of competitive online genres.
