Interesting if accurate, considering 2019 was essentially the second Brexit referendum and Labour's worst defeat in 100 years. 1% increase is laughable after that.

Murphy was the first example I encountered in life of somebody milking black victimhood. I was totally race-blind as a kid growing up in a melting pot inner city area, with friends from Nigeria, Trinidad, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Vietnam... So it was jarring and shocking to me when I saw the cool funny guy from Beverly Hills Cop in interviews, insisting that he was looked down on for being black. I remember him insisting to an interviewer that 'when you look at me, you think "black" - you don't just see a man you see a "black man"'. It didn't make any sense at all to me as a kid.

Welp, I grew up and Eddie got what he wished for, although he helped the prophecy fulfil itself.

I got my problems with Dan Bongino, but according to his sources the biggest roadblock to replacing biden is biden's own resistance and also that of his wife. Reportedly they are not playing nice with the idea of replacing biden, to say the least, or else it might have happened months ago.

I think I already recommended this to Smith1980, but it's worth repeating: I think lots of girls in Japan love Natsume's Book of Friends. I enjoy it too, although I've only seen the anime. A solitary boy who can see youkai inherits a notepad full of their names, from his dead grandmother. He's educated about this notepad by a powerful spirit in the guise of a lucky cat, who becomes his grudging bodyguard and they go on to have ghost adventures together. It's like Mushishi but more playful and in my (probably unpopular) opinion better, notwithstanding a sprinkling of sappiness which should appeal to young girls.

Spooky elements are there but very mild. Natsume's growing relationship with his foster family is a background theme but it's wholesome. As family friends, they've taken him in in their twilight years, so he has a bit of a personal journey where he learns to appreciate them as parent figures who care about him rather than strangers whom he's inconveniencing.

Played DR1 for the very first time a couple of years ago. Great game, holds up. Zero need for a remake or remaster. Don't be bilked for adulterated trash with obligatory woke inserts, censorship and Denuvo.

When Homeworld Remastered Collection was released, Gearbox completely broke the usefulness of strategic formations due to the way they imported HW1 into the HW2 engine - or something like that anyway. I don't have direct experience because I was warned off the game by the one, sole Steam review which noticed this (the user also explained his issues in this video), as well as by remembering how much I hate Randy Pitchford and Gearbox. At that time, all the other reviews were saying how great HW:RC was.

From what I can tell, this still hasn't been officially fixed, fully, despite what the updates in that review say. I just found a reddit post from 1 year ago which says a player-made patch has to be used.

Lesson being, you can't trust when people tell you that a remaster is good, either. OG fans will overwhelmingly be blinded by their love of the original and fail to notice flaws introduced in the remaster, even huge ones. Or perhaps they simply don't care because of shiny new graphics and screen resolutions. I loved HW1 and that issue with formations would have completely ruined it for me. It blows my mind that anyone had high hopes for Gearbox's HW3, considering.

I'm honestly surprised that Israel worked to get these bitches back rather than Hannibal Doctrine-ing them with carpetbombing. They are devastating to the Oct 7th islamic rape orgy narrative, as well as being repulsively obnoxious as people. Maybe they're well connected. And I guess they're not as uncomfortable as the kibbutz hostages who mention all the friendly fire kills and IDF tank shelling.

Another possibility is they're so nihilistic and twisted that they just enjoy calling this imagery to mind. In the same way that commie trannies get involved in brigades posting demoralisation material online, promoting ideas of white cuckery and miscegenation everywhere, Jews and other zionists indulge their own humiliation fetishes by cooking up disgusting sexual scenarios at the drop of the hat.

One of the biggest things that pissed me off during the weekend of Oct 7 was the sense that I was being forced to listen to some cuck's jackoff material, by the WHOLE WORLD PRESS and every normie. They wouldn't stop with the rape shit. Some mud or blood on the back of some IDF's trousers was supposedly evidence of her blown-out, raped anus. I will never fucking forgive them for making me listen to this foul, made up shit.

The woman is Noa Argamani, huh? So that's the one who was taken while crying on the motorbike, while a tidal wave of conservative talking heads pointed at the footage and told me:

LOOK IT'S RAPE RAPE RAPE THEY'RE GONNA RAPE HER RAPED TO DEATH RAPE RAPE MUSLIM COCKS SWARTHY BROWN COCKS OF DEATH MUSLIM RAPE RAPE RAPE

She took being raped to death remarkably well, it seems! Either that or the entire Oct 7 narrative was just another flavour of Jewish BBC fetish-posting.

Think of the internet as dead and every piece of information gleaned from it as a an element of infowar. It isn't a shade of what it was 20 years ago. You aren't going on the internet to search for info any more, you're raiding the bins of your enemy to see if they threw out anything incriminating. There simply is no guaranteed way to ensure you won't find crap.

She said the right has a woman problem and boy did the reaction prove her wrong [sarcastic laughing emojis]

-Kisin

The only 'woman problem' the right has is that they won't shut the fuck up

Btw, is the cunt in that image Jewish?

She's a Japanese woman who went viral recently for rudely calling out a white tourist and getting a doubly rude response in return (the bit in the tweet saying 'my weak Japanese' is an auto-translate burp). All the chatter at the time was along the lines of 'Damn gaijins!' and 'save Japan!' - only problem being that the actual infraction she claimed to be angry about was not recorded, we have only her word that they were misbehaving, yet the slightest probing shows she's an attention-seeking retard who fetishises blacks.

I used to work in the media and was told by the director to only focus on the non-Asian ones who were seemingly first time tourists, which confused me at the time because most tourists to Japan (73%) are coming from East Asian countries.

There's an interesting subtlety to this because as much as I respect Japanese culture and support Japan for the Japanese, this nationalism can hybridise with anti-white, pro-brown sentiment in a way that has nothing to do with actual nationalism and is mostly just about hating white people. There's an inclination to let aggressive chinese or feral blacks get away with everything, because it's too awkward to confront them about stuff, then project all their frustrations onto the nearest white person for the slightest infraction, because they stand out more and are perceived as easier marks. At the same time that their country is on course to be flooded with Indians, Chinese, Viets, Koreans, Filipinos and whatever else, everyone's being encouraged to point and seethe at the goofy white people posing for pictures.

The recent example of a Kyoto woman bitching at a white guy for ringing a temple bell too hard, followed up by Japanese being encouraged to doxx him on social media, was all instigated by a woke bitch who loves black tourists and just wanted to pick a fight with a white guy. In the current climate, I will stick up for white people the world over, because the anti-white agenda is also global. Remember the only person who ever laid out Johnny Somali in Japan was a white man.

Worth playing if you liked the flowery language and complex dialogue trees of Planescape Torment (I think DE even uses the same font) and if you're interested in a prototype of a similar experimental game, but with no combat and all the progression carried out through dialogue-based skill checks, written by commies.

I say 'prototype' because it's way too short and you barely ever leave the single town district map except to go into various interiors. Much of the world-building dialogue references locations you never go to in game (and based on the news, I guess never will). I hardly ever see this criticism of DE but it was a big one for me.

As for being written by commies, defenders will say that there is no agenda and that it makes jokes about all sides of the political spectrum. This is only true for the kind of political illiterate who, for example, can't tell that South Park is obviously written by libertarians with a big sympathy for Mormonism. The writers might have tried to make jokes that prod in all directions and keep their sympathies low key, but they just can't help it seeping through. The story itself is a murder mystery, character study type deal with occasionally intriguing buildup, but all the barely camouflaged political proxyism tangles up the gears. The game will let you play as a raging fascist, with only token snidey criticism (albeit moreso than if you play a raging commie), but it's only because like true commies, the writers actually hate 'traitor' commies and neolibs most of all.

I'm glad I played it to sate my curiosity and check the RP mechanics, but also glad I paid pennies for it (or got it gifted, can't remember). The mechanics were genuinely promising and the world lore itself is interesting, but it's crippled by length and ideology. But I have less of a problem with the devs (who at least were open about everything) than I do with the commie shills or retard normies who insist it's 'not political' or talk about it like it's a full-fledged RPG without mentioning you'll polish it off in 20-ish hours, which to me is like a third of a good RPG at best.

EU officials can take heart that turnout was once again just above 50 percent

[...]

It should blunt the critique in many quarters of the continent that the EU is run by technocrats in Brussels without most Europeans’ explicit consent.

vs. later in the same piece:

The antiestablishment Euroskeptic parties on both the far left and the far right performed well but did not see the level of electoral successes that would have allowed them to become part of an actual governing coalition that could wield direct influence over EU policy.

So the messages I got overall are:

1. More people are voting in EU elections but they're making it clear they don't like the EU, so they are evil.
2. They haven't actually wrested enough power to change the running of EU at all, so we the holy elites can breathe a sigh of relief for now.
3. Also since the people are now exercising their vote more, we can lie to them and tell them that their modest gains actually mean they now run the EU, and that it's their fault if it sucks (aka the 'Fuck you, Brexiters' strategy; point the airplane directly at the ground and then say 'oh WELL, I thought you all voted for me to change the way I fly?!').

Not the quietest way to kill Birchers so I doubt that was the goal.

I was skimming the details last night and as many as 3-4 US congressmen were originally meant to be flying together, potentially. It could be that Korean 007 provided the best opportunity to get all at once, however the circumstances by which they all got diverted so that only McDonald remained on the plane also seem very convoluted (flight diversion, delays in schedule, failure to persuade McDonald to switch planes)

From wikipedia:

McDonald could have boarded a Pan Am Boeing 747 flight to Seoul, but he preferred the lower fares of Korean Air Lines and chose to wait for the next KAL flight two days later.[21] Simultaneously, Hubbard and Helms planned to meet with McDonald to discuss how to join McDonald on the KAL 007 flight. As the delays mounted, instead of joining McDonald, Hubbard at the last minute gave up on the trip, canceled his reservations, and accepted a Kentucky speaking engagement. Helms attempted to join McDonald but was also delayed.[31]

McDonald occupied an aisle seat, 02B in the first class section, when KAL 007 took off on August 31 at 12:24 AM local time, on a 3,400 miles (5,500 km) trip to Anchorage, Alaska for a scheduled stopover seven hours later. The plane remained on the ground for an hour and a half during which it was refueled, reprovisioned, cleaned, and serviced.[21] The passengers were given the option of leaving the aircraft but McDonald remained on the plane, catching up on his sleep. Helms meanwhile had managed to arrive and invited McDonald to move onto his flight, KAL 015, but McDonald did not wish to be disturbed.

So I have no idea what to think.

Dallek: "He was a Bircher. Toward the end of my book, I mention that he was a member for a while, under his alias Michael King."

This stood out to me too. It's such a brief write-off, it seems like he's trying to disown the guy. 'Oh that violent Jew? #NotAllJews bro, that one's a Bircher.'

...Except he just spent an entire interview going on at length about how good they were at infiltrating the Birch Society.

So I guess jewish infiltration = noble and good, but when you want to disown a certain jew who got found out, then membership = simply membership, and we're supposed to forget that infiltration was ever a thing, even as recently as a few sentences ago.

Which proves that he knew everything McDonald was saying was on the money, all the while feigning his absurd scepticism larp and trying to undermine what was being said in the minds of the viewing audience.

YouTube helpfully provides a wikipedia link under the video explaining that the NWO is a conspiracy theory too, so at least we're well protected and reminded against these poisonous Birchers.

I suspect if it was a newer video or had garnered more than 150k views across 13 years, it would have trouble even staying up on YT. Good candidate for download and reuploading elsewhere just in case.

I don't know much about the John Birch Society but here's a former chairman Larry Mcdonald, talking on US TV about the New World Order. Interesting how the passenger jet he was flying on was shot down in mysterious circumstances months later, officially because an autopilot error caused an incursion into soviet airspace.

I almost never watch new anime as it airs, instead typically lagging a few years or decades behind the hype, but on a friend's recommendation I started watching The Fable and it's pretty enjoyable so far. A legendary but spergy hitman has to lay low and pretend to be a civilian for a while, using yakuza connections to do so, but his presence causes ripples in the local yakuza power structure. Nice grounded, gritty but not ostentatiously edgy setting.

Also caught up on Odd Taxi, it was all right. Occasionally spinning an ep of Ace of Diamond, it's also all right (better than Odd Taxi). Neither's really very fresh though.

It’s “Comment Is Free”

Is it? I don't see that catchphrase anywhere but in the URL. It's not on the actual website anywhere.

In case you didn't know, 'Comment Is Free' was the name of the Guardian's opinion column section, where user comments and debate used to be encouraged. It was essentially a forum.

They shut all of that down years ago, partly because their desired narrative would often get btfo by user comments, but also as part of the wider comment section shutdown which happened across the entire internet. For some reason (spoiler: it's incompetence) they haven't removed the last vestige of CiF from the back end of their site, so it shows up in the URL, reminding people it used to exist. 'Comment is free' in the url doesn't mean anything any more, other than that the Guardian is 'free' to print whatever they want, completely unchallenged.

That bitch is a journo all right.

Yeah, the 'gender ideology' she whines about is just 'feminism' rebranded. All feminism ever fucking does now is rebrand endlessly as damage control, ever since it was exposed as some or other form of poison. All this bitch does is whine about muh girls and muh female spaces, but the primary victims of this tranny shit, years ago, were the self-mutilating trannies themselves, while the culprits were always feminists. They NEVER gave a fuck until it affected women.

Notice there's no complaint about women trying to be men. Not even any complaint about young girls cutting their tits off en masse since FtM became a thing, yet surely 'gender ideology' should take equal heat for that too...? No, everything just boils down to 'nobody told me there would be a man in MY bathroom'. Well fuck you, get raped by consequences.

Yours is an unpopular opinion because 'lol lettuce', but it seems obvious she was torpedoed in a neolib/WEF coup in favour of their preferred candidate. Which is not to say she's worth a damn, but the decision to go on TLE is interesting. Searching 'liz truss lotus eaters' shows the entire MSM mobilised on the same WEF script yet again (also lol at the irony of 'The Independent' having the exact same script as the Evening Standard, although not a surprise since they're owned by the son of a KGB agent ).
