All great options. Another really good older RTS is Star Wars: Empire at War. Still one of the best Star Wars games ever released.

Edit: I also loved the original Stronghold games, especially Crusader.

But that's where a lot of talented young people do go, because at least the perception exists that that's where the jobs are. Again, large corps with substantial resources can always out-compete startups for talent in that environment.

If you're an up-and-coming software engineer/ product designer / marketer etc living in a dense blue urban shithole like NY or SF with sky-high rents, are you going to go for the stock option, or are you going to take the job that's offering you a 6-figure salary right now?

No start-up has the resources to offer employees the same deals they can get if a big corp wants to entice them. Especially if that same big corp is using their market clout to crush the start-up's profits.

Bottom feeders. You eat crabs or shrimp and you're eating every pollutant in the ocean, man-made or otherwise. Shrimp like to gather around the exhaust valves of container ships and eat what comes out of them.

He purged the bureaucracy and delivered Argentina's first quarterly budget surplus in decades. The entire globalist establishment will be funding protests, insurrections and plots against him for the rest of his term.

But the police and legal authorities keep telling us that if we get mugged, we should just give them everything and then ask if there's anything else we can do for them. Clearly if law enforcement looks at a situation like this and doesn't think there's anything wrong with it, this guy would be wrong to intervene.

The actual oligarchs will only benefit financially from not having to pay the upkeep on these buildings. When they have an army of low-paid work-from-home wage slaves whose private lives are being constantly invaded and surveiled by their corporate overlords, the profits will only go up.

To be fair, Rumble is inflating their view counts, but I'm glad to see the Lotus Eaters getting some traction. As much as they annoy me sometimes, they're much more thoughtful and insightful than the usual Conservative Inc pundits at Blaze or Daily Wire.

As far as diversity of opinion, there really seem to be three different factions. Callum and Harry, are both very much on the anti-institutionalist, freedom end of the Zoomer right, and Callum especially is pretty red-pilled on the Woman Question. Dan seems more sympathetic to that position as well. He and Harry are both pretty black-pilled.

Josh and Stelios are still in the Classical Liberal phase that Carl himself used to occupy, and Carl and Connor along with Calvin Robinson are much more conventional tradcons, although Carl at least tends to be more critical of certain tradcon perspectives.

Alfred Marshall's Principles of Economics is much shorter than Wealth of Nations, although not necessarily less dense. Marshall was a mathematician first and foremost, so there's a lot of focus on supply and demand curves and other basic mathematical principles of economics. It's less philosophical and more scientific in its overall approach.

I'm so content to stand in line

Wait and see, pass the time

Talk a streak, fall asleep

Wake up late, whine and weep

I kiss the hand that slaps me senseless

I'm so accepting, I am so defenseless

I am far too Canadian

I am far too Canadian

I pick the bones of what's been done

Now lick them clean with a cautious tongue

In dim lit rooms, I spill my guts

I'm the revolution when the doors are shut

I'd bite the hand that slaps me senseless

But my patience it is too relentless

I am far too Canadian

I am far too Canadian

I am the face of my country

Expressionless and small

Weak at the knees, shaking badly

Can't straighten up at all

I watch the spine of my country bend and break

I'm in a sorry state

I scratch the walls to mark the days

With my coup de tête, I am locked away

With Mother Jones, pots of tea

The kitchen poster, anarchy

I never march in demonstrations

I hold my breath for arbitration

I am far too Canadian

I am far too Canadian

I am the face of my country

Expressionless and small

Weak at the knees, shaking badly

Can't straighten up at all

I watch the spine of my country bend and break

I'm in a sorry state

Won't you welcome to the sorry state

Paizo did exactly that with Pathfinder back when DnD 4e came out. Everybody hated the 4e rules, so it created a niche for a clone game with a version of the 3.5 rules.

The problem is that Paizo is now also woke as fuck. It doesn't matter how many alternatives you create if you don't gatekeep.

So the government can stop you from traveling, prevent you from going to work, prevent you from shopping, force you to close your business, stop you or your kids from attending school, destroy your financial security, stop you from walking in the woods or on the beach, stop you from seeing your family, stop you from caring for loved ones who are in the hospital or care homes, but you're not allowed to block off part of a highway in order to protest that.

You're missing the point. They don't want there to be enough water, just like they don't want there to be enough food. And just like with the food, now they've decided to make it happen.

Eventually they're going to need cannon fodder for one of their endless wars and realize they have none left. Then they'll panic and reintroduce conscription, and I sincerely hope they discover that enough young men would rather fight them than fight for them.
