They can't pull the poverty bullshit. Every immigrant group that has ghetto'd together in the US over the decades before melting-in, Slavs, Italian, Irish, Chinese, Korean, somehow manage to not wholesale slaughter each other on a daily basis.

He gets a ton of troon brigading. You can see in that thread, all of the 'it earned 18x what they were asking for!' nonsense. They all have low follow counts and pronouns. Sock puppet Discord brigades.

I think the book has been written and re-written so many times, it reads like it has been on a stage from village to village. The face-palming and hollaring is so over the top. The fights are 'bouts' where they hit each other simultaneously until one guy wins or runs away. There's betrayal, fake out deaths, casual cannibalism. It's super dramatic and epic. I love it. But, you can easily imagine it being on a small stage for a crowd of peasants. Ribbons for blood and entrails, drums and fireworks for the exciting parts.

The only other book I'd read of his was: Servants of War. It was like a.. It felt like a grimdark fantasy set in fuedal Slavic motif. Then all of a sudden it's 40k style dreadnaughts fighting hordes of nightmare creatures. I liked it, just took a little bit to get going.

I'll check out Grimnoir Chronicles, that sounds fun.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a strange read, but I enjoy it. There's A LOT of names that sound similar bombarding you. It's written in an epic history / poem style like The Odyssey. The dialogue is dramatic and over the top, but fun. Pretend it was written for some stage 1000 years ago.

If you end up liking it, there's another Chinese epic that got made into games, but hasn't been popular in the West since the 80's-90's. Over here it gets called Bandit Kings of Ancient China or Outlaws of the Marsh, but most places sell it now as The Water Margin or Outlaws of the March. It's ancient Asian style Robin Hood. Wars, feasts, cannibals.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I found an unabridged version, Sanquozhi Yanyi something. I read the abridged version years ago after playing some of the strategy games based on the warring states period.

Before that I read Monster Hunter Inc 1 and 2 by Larry Correia.

My money is on activist Discord employees 'leaking' account info to the right degenerate.

I wonder if they will teach that the Israelis didn't respond for hours, when they've proved in other circumstances they have a response time of around 5 minutes over the rest of the zone.

Teach that they needed/wanted this to happen to serve as a pretext.

I'm kind of in the same boat. Utterly condemning Israel here, but I know that Palestinians are awful neighbors. Gaza is/was an open air prison, and Israel is bulldozing it for new suburbs. It's all wrong. We'd be fighting back as well.

Israel's gotta go. They've got too much influence in our government and media. They provide nothing but strife and division. Let them fend for themselves for awhile. We need a massive leak on all of the people they have kompromat on. Just rip the bandaid off. Expose all the perverts and degenerates. Get them out of office and bureaucracy and try to do a house cleaning.

I think the reaction to years of forced multiculturalism is a huge part of it. This whole DEI religion and diversity push for the last 8-14 years is rubbing everyone the wrong way, but most NPCs aren't able to put their finger on it.

Now we've got this massive propaganda push, right in everyone's faces that Israel has a right to exist! You're supposed to take that at face value, but those words obviously mean more than what is being said. It means, the world needs to fight for Israel to get to be an Israel-first ethnostate, not multicultural. They get to foist all their 'multicultural' onto everyone else. That goes against all of the heavy-handed activism we've been bombarded with. Everyone thinking, black or white, asian or latin, 'Why can't we have that too?'

Israel gets special treatement, and we gotta pay for it? Not just that they get to fuck with all of their neighbors and we gotta run to their defence? Like that old cartoon with the two dogs Spike and... the little yappy one. The little dog is always picking fights Spike has to back up. All those evil buzzwords, colonialism, fascist, xenophobia, Israel is all of that. So it's breaking leftist solidarity with the establishment.

10/7 killed 'woke'. That illusion propaganda doesn't work so well anymore. Everyone got to see that there is an even higher rank of special privilege, beyond oppressed/minority and brown/queer.

It's an election year, most things are gonna be censored on YouTube soon. Then mysteriously in 2025 they will make a commitment to transparency and things will be 70% restored. Frogs a bit closer to boiling.

Women may bitch about it on social media, but they'll still join a harem of a 5%'er before settling for a 50%'er.

The elites have a subversive faith, so they don't understand any faith. They think everything has loopholes, and truth is relative depending on who is being 'truthed'. Even if you take the supernatural out of it, postmodernism is a Satanic mindset.

Parasocial relationships via Twitch and Onlyfans is probably more of a culprit here. Terminal hypergamy and internet dating reach, cockblocking dudes who would have normally had a chance with a girl in their town as a secondary reason. Throw in less dudes than ever going to college, where lots of fucking used to happen.

I love the first Dawn of War. I played it for hundreds of hours. It's been calling me back lately. I might break down and reinstall it all.

An arcade game I miss is SEGA's Operation: Gunblade. You are a helicopter gunner, the AI pilots. You can 'kind' of steer by how you kill things / blow shit up.

China so bad we send 90% of our pharma and chip production to them. China the most bad because we send most of our manufactory jobs and industry to them. China so bad we let them buy up huge swaths of farmland across the US.

Until our gov stops treating China like some kind of total partner, I'll be a little skeptical of 'We gotta ban x y z to save the children from China'.

The US is the most propagandized country in the world.

When commies have no real argument, so they end up calling you an -ist or a phobe. The NPCs are hard-coded to avoid anything labeled that way. True or not.

I think that is a common dream among them: Saving the mentally ill runaway. So they have a cultural badge of virtue and malleable, weak prey at the same time. Bullies need targets that don't fight back. Looking the hero while being a predator, extra win.

Maybe that's why they adhere to the Woke Doctrine. New civic religion. Only of course there's no form of atonement, and belief is optional. Religious tenets are more: You eternally struggle for more social power, and wield mob doctrine against any rival.

Thine shall be ranked according to immutable characteristics. If thou is at thy lowest rung, thou must becometh rainbowed or trannify. Only then wilst thy neighbor acknowlege thines new community ranking. The cis must be purged for they are reminders of an unforgiveable past era.

Cis people (Their words, I refused to accept it) are the antediluvian humanity that will get wiped out in the transhuman flood.
