Elden Ring gets a pass because the message isn't woke.
The gay/tranny boss in the DLC undergoes a horrific descent into madness as he becomes a cosmic abomination. Seems pretty on point. The final reveal, that he's brainwashing people into being in gay love with him, is designed to be horrifying and motivate the player to be completely on board with killing him, in case you missed the (easily missed) lore about him turning irredeemably evil after he started as a morally good character.
Space Marine 2 is still a little woke.
You've got two marine sidekicks, and they're black and asian Ultramarines. Ultramarines were Greek/Roman until retcons.
There's also a strong no-nonsense female guard commander or something.
I'm sure the exact words they said were true. But the statement that AC: Shadows had "the 2nd highest day one sales behind Valhalla", is a great way of lying with numbers.
AC Mirage basically went out there to die as a flop, and that means Shadows only beat games that came out 7-8+ years ago back when digital distribution wasn't nearly as common because people were still buying physical boxes.
It's fine for them if it just delays things, because they just need a few more years until the demographics shift. Power isn't their goal; they want to wipe out all whites.
When less than half of the French population is French, or less than half of the German population is German, it doesn't matter if the pressure finally boils up because there's nothing to be done after it's too late.
The last 75 years have pretty heavily debunked the idea that the slippery slope is a fallacy instead of a natural consequence.
It's a stupid strategy to allow people who are evil to tiptoe closer to that evil until they commit provable harm, so they can forever push the boundary of what's acceptable, until the unthinkable is considered normal. This has happened with every form of degeneracy across generations, and now it's pedophilia.
If you could go back in time to the 1950s and show them what loosening those laws would result in today, even the most liberal would recoil in disgust at the resulting damage and would make the members of conpro look like liberals. Today, the people who have foresight can tell what's going on with pedophilia, and want us to avoid that same fate for our children's children.
You want to let the degenerates succeed in the same exact way they've succeeded for generations, but just hope it'll be okay this time. I guess you still haven't learned from the failures of the boomers.
Yes, cops use different laws than anyone else, especially with respect to weapons.
Police are supposed to be the local monopoly on force, so even in a state with functional police (and not clownworld) they're supposed to be able to brandish their weapons at any time.
When you pull a gun on someone in the USA, while you're escalating, you're also de-escalating: brandishing is diminishing the threat from the other side. You wait and see if the other side backs off, you don't start blasting the moment something doesn't go your way.
No, you definitely don't do that. It's illegal and is called brandishing.
If you weren't in enough danger to use the gun immediately, you shouldn't have pulled it out. And if you were in enough danger then you should use it. You are not allowed to pull out a weapon for any reason other than self defense. Intimidation is not a legitimate reason.
Ahahahahahahahahaha.
The UK has signed trade deals with Canada and Aus/NZ. They still don't have a trade deal with Europe, and were hoping to play the US and EU off on each other to get favorable options.
If they want to play hardball the US can tell them to get fucked, and Europe would have no check against bending them over a barrel.
The UK can join us in freedom, or they can sink alone in tyranny, but there's no chance they get to drag us down with them.
It was DDT. DDT is a neurotoxin designed to kill insects by destroying their ability to send signals and causing tremors and convulsions. These happen to be the same symptoms as Polio, and we used to spray DDT on kids and all over crops. Doctors couldn't distinguish the symptoms. Basically, DDT was causing neurological damage that was getting mislabeled as Polio.
They significantly tapered down DDT a year or two before the polio vaccine, which is why you can see the rates of cases drop like a stone before the vaccine saw a wide scale rollout.
