"the game no longer reflects an 18th century view of world conquest". Why should it? Running a war empire is costly, sacrifices production for military over infrastructure, and usually results in unhappiness for the empire. The whole point of the game is that world powers change and adapt to "stand the test of time". Changing game mechanics beyond "conquer" is exactly the same thing. That's why there are multiple win conditions. This dullard barely had an argument to begin with, and it's a bad one.

"concerned citizens are contacting their representatives to not ban tiktok. This is a clear indicator that they are addicted and being manipulated, so we must ban tiktok"

What prevents the intelligence apparatus from controlling tiktok content the same way they control ig/fb/twitter's content? It seems to me that they're very concerned with tiktok's ability to influence public opinion (ex: Gaza), which is part of why they want it banned.

100%. A story about one of the Swing Kids who got drafted into the SS but feels guilty about all the things he sees and does and continues to do, and sometimes helps a cute Jewish girl hide/escape...until she's found and SA'd by the Soviets for some reason

Gamergate (ant) (en.m.wikipedia.org)
submitted 11 months ago by sourquincelog@hexbear.net to c/earth@hexbear.net

Was reading about guarana, which led me down the wiki hole to "bullet ants", and then to gamergate ants.

A gamergate (/ˈɡæmərˌɡeɪt/ GAMM-ər-gayt) is a mated worker ant that can reproduce sexually, i.e., lay fertilized eggs that will develop as females.

I don't have anything useful to contribute, just thought it was kinda funny

Didn't Biden slip up and kinda admit it at one point?
