Great talk! I’m really going to be thinking about this one for a long time. Thanks for the link!

Thanks! Can’t wait to watch this.

Was it too easy or something? I never played that one, stopped after 4, but I love learning video game history.

Thanks! Damn, I’ll probably end up going these but I’m running out of room for my rpg books lol.

So are these different from the upcoming rules changes they’ve been playtesting? The 5.5 changed as I’ve been calling them?

Also, anyone know what the new Crafting rules?

I kinda see their point, though. Even that kind of performative gesture would get headlines and demonstrate to the public that they’re trying actively to fight for the cause. It’s like when Trump would try to do something and get shut down, like with the Muslim ban or something. He would look like he was doing something and getting obstructed by courts or the “deep state”, but it made people feel like they had an advocate on their site, even though he just didn’t care that much and was mostly out to enrich himself.

Another consequence of living in an oligarchy 😩

He literally gave an example of a filibuster on the House floor in his comment. Idk how effective it would be, but he did source an example of someone fighting with a filibuster.

Yeah I’m glad everyone else was confused, too. I felt like the dumb one for thinking it was the opposite.

It looks so easy 😭 I wish I had the starting capital and lack of morals to start one of these grifts.

Right? It seems repetitive.

It seems like if you’d take it’s net impact throughout world history and it added it all up, you’d end up in the negatives. Like it’s been actively more bad for the human race than good.

Right, but there have been settlers in West Bank. They’re still Palestinians being harmed. And life in Gaza isn’t sunshine and roses for most Palestinians, either.

And the slowly encroaching settler attacks, blockade, and occupation was just what? A special military operation?

Thanks for the explanation! Was wondering what the hell was going on, too.

And if you can convince someone else to watch it with you, even better! Unfortunately, it’s so hard to get my partner to watch new shows and movies lol.

But with that logic, my friends have the right to go to Italy and Ireland, kick out native Italians and Irish and take their houses, because they’re Italian-American or Irish-American. That’s not how it works or how it should work. Its the same reason I wouldn’t have supported the Liberia project of having African-Americans go back to Africa and kick out and oppress the natives just because they were mistreated in the US, if I was alive at the time. It led to centuries of indigenous oppression and civil wars, like Israel and Palestine nowadays. We shouldn’t be looking to imitate that level of colonial superiority anywhere else.

It sounds like the opposite. Do you even know what Zionism is? It’s calling for a place Jews from all over the world can go via. They bring in people from all over the world, lots of them have dual citizenships. Because Jewish people can trace genealogic origins there from thousands of years ago doesn’t make some lady from Europe or New York the same as some local Palestinian kid at all. They then kick out the natives and give their homes to these settlers. They’ve been doing it since the 40’s. People can look over the wall and see where they, their parents, or their grandparents used to live.

I recommend looking up the history of Zionism, including the European Jews that forwarded it, like Theodore Herzl, and the different places they considered for it (Uganda,Argentina, Cyprus, etc) before settling on Palestine.

A map and basic understanding of indigenous resistance.

I’m probably going to have to watch it again. There was so much going on, so many mysteries and conspiracies, that I’ve forgotten most of it by this time.
