Vice was a starting point for Milo Yiannopoulos and Gavin McInnes, shouldn't surprise anybody that Shane Smith has gone in the same direction. And with how their views have developed, i'm not suprised he's the only host they have left.

The only piece missing is that I don't think the game said much about indigenous people of the continent where the game is set.

Le Caillou was settled twice before white settlers arrived, but the first culture there died out during the neolithic without leaving much of a trace and the Semenese only settled there temporarily and left for other parts of the archipelago "thousands of years" before Occidental settlers got there (the ingame source for the latter part is Measurehead, so maybe we should take that with a grain of salt). Revachol practiced settler colonialism during the Souzerainity and competed with the Occidental colonizer nations it had spawned from until the turn of the century revolution kicked off and ended the monarchy and its enjoyment of exploiting other parts of the world for apricots and magenta cocaine. But Le Caillou wasn't violently colonized itself until the Moralintern invaded and slaughtered every communard they could find.

This is a classic example of a B film. Theatres back then had double features where you got two films for the price of one and the second movie was usually low budget stuff, and often relied on being a bit edgier than the usual fare to make up for the cheaper production. Video tapes only started to become a thing a decade after this, and didn't get really big until the 1980s.

When you've been a high-ranking figure in the genocide euphemistically referred to as the "war on terror" which has led to the murder of roundabout 4 million people, the displacement of many millions of people more, the complete public acceptance of unchecked mass surveilance, black site torture and extrajudicial drone killings of victims chosen by a dubious and completely intransparent algorithm, an atrocity which has laid the material and ideological foundation for the latest resurgence of fascism as well, it is not surprising at all that you're a raging racist asshole who looks like a milsurp Richard Dawkins.

At first i actually thought you meant sub as in a BDSM context, which worried me because i really, really do not want my subs to implode. Then i realized that's not it and wondered why a sandwich would have wifi. Only then i remembered this is about the next best thing in the world after unimploded submissives and delicious sandwiches, which is dead billionaires.

I think in future, especially in broad left spaces, I'd recommend hiding your power level and avoiding getting too involved in ideological debates.

Yeah, i normally do that, but it's a server where it's fine to post guillotine memes about billionaires and one girl was talking about how she wanted to join a trot org yesterday. There's daily active posters with hamsic profile pics. I was under the assumption that voicing my opinion in a non-sectarian way would be completely alright, my posts also got a few thumbs ups and under them as well. That place isn't hexbear, but it was the last place outside of here or lemmygrad where i would've expected to get into trouble for letting the mask slip. Like i said, the ban came completely unexpected, it's purest sectarianism or maybe personal animosity against me or both, idk.

I think the best translation is "causality of deception" or "what makes one blind to wtf is going on". It's "the straight line that leads from the jollyness of the beer cellars to the human slaughterhouses in Poland", the alcohol-and-marching-band fueled stupor of red-faced Weimar era chuds that allowed them to fully instrumentalize themselves as part of the nazi machinery. The ideological gauze they pulled over their own eyes. To give a modern example, reddit libs envisioning politics exclusively as a marvel movie is a Verblendungszusammenhang.

id say 4-5ish years on is when most people begin to radicalize a lot

pls god no i don't want to become an ultra

The original version is but the cartoon one is particularly gigantic on other instances due to a bug that shows all emojis at their actual size outside of hexbear.

Yeah, people weren't aware of transphobic language 14 years ago, i know that, i've lived through that time.

I don't know a single trans person that views dude as a gender neutral term, the only people spouting that nonsense are transphobic cis dudes like you who make up excuses to misgender and harass us. Go die in a house fire, reactionary cissie shit.
