I see, I didn't think that was what the story was setting up too.

The only other experience I have with Dune is watching the old ass movie which I remember hating lol.

Oh go fuck yourself you Zionist piece of shit.

Israel was a settler colonial project from the get-go. You just hate Muslims so much you don't care for them.

The bombs Palestinians used are a drop in the bucket compared to the genocide they have been enduring for 75+ years, and every resource they used is self-defense against the genocidal Zionist entity.

Muslim groups in the middle east, from the Houthis to Hamas and many others have a life mission to wipe out Israel and Jewish people.

Fucking bullshit you scum. You have the empire's boot so far down your throat you can't imagine siding with brown people resisting colonial powers and tyrannical monarchies backed by the US.

I’m mostly on team Israel but I can see there is potential for Israel to go too far. So far, they haven’t.

I'm gonna lose it. The amount of fucking destruction in Gaza is so big, Google fucking Maps shows the place have been reduced to rubble.

I hate to see casualties on either side but I understand this is literally what war is about. Each side is trying to kill the other.

Bullshit, you hate seeing white colonizers dying. You don't give a single iota of a fuck if it's the Palestinians being systematically killed for 75+ years.

Lmao, I engaged with all your arguments, but you cannot do the same for me.

What you call yourself doesn't matter if you're completely wrong. The only thing that matters is the tangible reality, which you are going against without providing a single evidence of why you're right and why I'm wrong, when I argued extensively on my view.

You're taking the definition linked at face value and not doing further investigation into what it means and its material repercussions.

In a capitalistic society capital and the right to private property is above all, including the individual, it is by all means sacred and must be respected. This means that despite having more empty homes than homeless people, these people can't be located into these empty homes because the property is above them, they don't matter.

The supposed "rights of the individual" is just the individualization of the self in detriment of the collective. Despite us being social animals that depend on each other, said rights and constant capitalistic propaganda sells us the idea that we are single individuals that are responsible for everything around us. Phrases like "If you get get fired its your own fault and you should pull yourself by your own bootstraps", "if you get sick that's your own fault", "if you become homeless that's your own fault", etc. It's never the system in place that prioritizes profit and private property above you. It also doesn't matter that someone is racist because that's their individual right of free speech, despite that hurting society as a whole, it's the individual above the collective.

"Liberty" for who? If your choice is to pay rent or be homeless, that's not a choice. If you have to worry about keeping a roof above your head, not getting fired, if you can pay your bills, if you can afford food, then you're not free. The only ones that are free are the bourgeoisie, as they hold all the power in a capitalistic society.

I can’t accept this label. They are conservatives/fascists. Not liberal.

The Republicans maintain capitalism, just like Democrats do. They are both liberals because liberalism is the status quo of capitalism. Of course there is neoliberalism too, but as the name implies, it is a "new" type of liberalism. They are by all metrics liberals. Further right than the Democrats, sure, but liberals none the less. They fit into defending the things I explained above, just like the Democrats also do.

If you arent distinguishing between ideology, party and individual then I don’t think you fully understand capitalism.

I'm literally talking to you from a marxist instance. I don't claim to know everything about capitalism, but I do think I have a better grasp than most liberals on this.

Furthermore, what do you mean with distinguishing ideology from party and individual? Ideology is present in both these things. Capitalistic liberal ideology as the status quo, maintains itself by being ever present in the collective mind of the people as the only viable solution. You can't separate these things because they are deeply interlinked, both the individual and the party are not separated from ideology.

The genocide in Palestine is wrong because they cannot have a right as individuals, they do not have liberty, they have not had an election allowed to be held since 2008, they have no political equality, they have no right to private property and settlers can kick them out, they are not equal to Jews under the law.

No, a genocide doesn't stop being wrong when the genocided population have rights. Also you completely ignore Palestine as a country, which grants the Palestinians rights, even tho Israel doesn't since it is a settler colonial genocide entity.

Any true liberal would support Palestine from your own source.

Anyone with a shred of empathy supports Palestine. The question of a liberal supporting Palestine or not on ideological grounds is settled in if the liberal believes in the legitimacy of Israel or not, and anyone that does believe that, doesn't support Palestinians in any way whatsoever.

Israel is not a legitimate state, it was a settler colonial project from its very inception. That's why we have 75+ years of a genocide happening that the world brushes off and does nothing about.

Skimming through this post, people actually believe in IQ?

IQ is not a good measurement of intelligence. It is at best one single measurement of pattern recognition, and it is not set in stone either, as you can get better or worse at it.

There's multiple types of intelligence it doesn't measure and honestly, I don't believe anyone should take it serious.

I'm glad to help o7. Your work here is indispensable and greatly appreciated, comrade!

You DO have to read theory. Just because it is old doesn't mean it's wrong or outdated.

Also I'm not opposed to watching YouTube videos, but it shouldn't be your only source for it, and recommending Vaush is a huge problem, don't do that.

If anyone wants some actual good recommendations:

In english: Second Thought, Hakim, Yugopnik, Luna Oi, revolutionary_thot, azurescapegoat. There's also Hasan, but he does commentary and not theory teaching or analisys or anything like that.

In portuguese: Ian Neves/História Pública, Laura Sabino, Jones Manoel, Tempero Drag/Rita von Hunty, João Carvalho.

There's of course others, I'm just going by the ones I remember right now.

I know they do, I just didn't expect it to get this explicit this soon. Twitter got so shit so quick I thought it might have been an outlier. I was clearly naive lol.

I don't know any that are as big as Bethesda games or Minecraft modding scenes, not even close, but FromSoftware games tend to have some really big mods that changes lots of stuff, never got to play any of them other than a bit of one that recently came out for DS3, but is something I want to do after I'm done with Shadow of the Erdtree.

Other than that Valheim seems to have some interesting ones too. Guilty Gear Strive have a lot of alt colors/costumes you can mod into the game.

Oh a big one is The Binding of Isaac, there is a shit ton of mods on the Steam Workshop, I tend to use a lot of non-gameplay mods there. The modding scene in this one is unique and tends to be quite friendly. There's a lot of fun and quality work on there.

Yeah, get out with this shit. Stop trying to push PCO here.

Lots of accusations here and your use of "identitarian movements" and "freedom of speech" with the example you used speaks volumes already. Also what's with the "defending gay people way before it was cooler", and "before it was infiltrated by CIA agenda points? This all just smells extremely reactionary.

I get what you're saying, but I think it's a bit of an overreaction.

The 4 first screenshots could very well be criticism what you do in-game, tho I doubt it is, it's probably the devs just wanting to be edgy.

The reviews are pretty standard from g*mers too. Most are probably just making fun of the fact, but since it's Steam there's 100% someone that wrote stuff like that unironically.

I think discussion about possible AI use by the devs and it just being another lazy survival game with ripoff pokémon and guns are better talking points. There's also the IP infringement, but I don't care about Nintendo's property.

Nobara 39 with KDE Plasma :)

I have a ton of wallpapers rotating every 2 hours, so I'll chain comment with a few more screenshots, because I absolutely love some of the wallpapers I have and I want you comrades to see. I only took screenshots of drawn wallpapers, but I do have some nice brutalist ones and a lot of space and Arcane ones too.
