You mean like a Puma, perhaps?

Alright, but we still remember all the shit that happened to the indigenous people at the hands of European settlers, and more importantly, so do the indigenous peoples of the world. That's not going away, even if the liberal consensus is that it's all in the past and we should forget about it. This is all part of a historical process, and history doesn't end once the liberals say it does. It's all cause and effect. What I don't like about this post is that it's just handwringing about the state if things, thereby implying that these struggles are, in fact, in the past. If this is all going to be forgotten, then why do we bother talking about it? We should be documenting and discussing precisely so that it doesn't get forgotten.

I disagree. The only people who will think like this are liberals, and who gives a fuck what they think? Libs gonna lib, as they always have. Left-wingers (some of them, at least - I assume there were some who thought differently) have always been critical of colonialism and imperialism - Marx wrote scathingly about atrocities committed by the British against the Chinese and Engles had some thoughts about the English occupation of Ireland, for example. If it seems as though no-one cared about the Aboriginal Australians or the First Nations people, it was very likely because not as much was known about them; there were only so many socialist thinkers at the time, and they were probably more preoccupied by potential revolutions going on closer to home.

However, the surviving indigenous peoples of America and Australia certainly won't forget what happened to them, or what is still happening to them. The palestinians have the support not just of white European and American leftists like myself, but broadly of the Muslim diaspora community on those continents and the people of the Islamic nations surrounding Palestine. I know I certainly won't forget what Israel has done, nor will I ever think it was justified. And what happens when Uncle Sam finds it inconvenient or impossible to stand up for Israel anymore? I don't know for sure, but it will probably involve a lot more killing.

half the time it seems like their video's only source is a half-skimmed wikipedia page.

Funny you should mention that, because they actually used a Ukrainian wiki page as a source in that video lmao

I agree with everything you've said, but it's still a shame to see it :( It won't age well at all, either.

Are ships okay?

Britain in a fucking nutshell. Weight is kilos unless it's people, in which case it's stone or pounds and ounces for babies; fluids are ml unless it's milk (excluding plant milk) or you're ordering it from a pub, in which case it's in denominations of pints: distance is taught in km but all roadsigns are in miles, etc.

Britain no longer has the ability to produce shells for the Challenger's gun. They don't use the NATO standard barrel either, so basically when they're out, they're out.

Edit: the source for my claim. The original link is dead, so I guess we'll just have to take the wiki article's word for it.

I wouldn't be so sure about this being brand-destroying. Activision-Blizzard and Ubisoft have been exposed as being full of harrassment and toxic work culture too, and they're still doing just fine. Maybe Linus himself will fuck off somewhere in disgrace, but the brand itself will live on. In a way, it was the perfect time for these allegations to come out as they've not long got themselves a new CEO. He can claim that he knew nothing about what was going on there, and make empty promises about how things will be different now he's in charge, etc.

I know it's easy to say in hindsight, but there instances in a few videos where you can see him get legitimately angry with others. Not for long, and any nasty stuff is cut out, but you can tell he has a mean streak. I didn't think it went quite this far, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Nobody becomes a millionaire by being nice.

Really? Well that sucks.
