I liked the concentration camp ending in that game. Real subtle. 

Only videogames can do that.

I need David Cage to address the Israel/Palestine conflict. Only he can heal the world

If James Cameron can’t do it, Cage has no chance. 

The cut to Cameron in his gamer setup really got me

"I ate at 91 michelin star restaurants last year and thoroughly enjoy eating my own shit on occasion"

Pretty solid comeback honestly.

In response to this exchange: 

Proof that gamers haven't read a book since middle school

I read 91 books last year and thoroughly enjoy Quantic games. Try harder.

You know what, I would take Uncle over Nepnep. Just cool it on the dish soap chicken. Nobody does that.

You can't micro-moderate every single behavior you don't like. People have the right to be nihilistic, it's up to you to either move on or engage. AI is a problem in that each and every person has a different line for what's acceptable and whether something is AI or not, you can't expect this to be universal.



The word must remain free. If you think something looks like AI you shouldn't be required to stay quiet, since there can't exist any evidence for or against the usage of AI anyway. It's the reality of the current climate. A rule would mean an unfettered growth for AI where it can be present without anyone saying anything until the artists/company admits it themselves, and that's simply asinine.



No company is even required to disclose AI usage in the first place.

AI derangement syndrome is real y'all

I'm not saying it's up to us and I'm not saying it's wrong to discuss this, but I think it's always a bad idea to restrict what people can say for no good reason at all. We are not seeing mass layoffs because people wrongly accuse someone for using AI, we are seeing mass layoffs because of AI usage in general.



Where is the line between speculation and accusation anyway? If someone is 100% sure something is AI, you mean it's their duty to either stay quiet or add "I think" and that will somehow make a difference?



As I mentioned, evidence is not relevant since it can't exist outside of admitting in using it.

Such hypocrites

I don't know why it's so baffling that Platner has support when it's clear establishment Dems are incredibly unpopular right now

Because it means that the left doesn’t have real standards and just want a leftist Trump.

Wasn't he crazy right wing before

while he did pal around with some right wingers he was always in his own world politically

Oh but it's someone they don't like and did this they would say they're right wingers.

I don't blame countries for turning away from the US and seeking deals with the next largest financial power. In fact, it's the smart play and what's best for their citizens right now

The "they're not the US so automatically they're good" shine they're getting from a portion of this site and other left-leaning online circles is hilariously ignorant tho

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

Scuffed got salty that got called out as a tankie apologist:

They love turning a blind eye to all the wild shit the CIA have done over the years too.

You know what is rich too? I literally made what I think is the first thread on this site on the Uyghurs camps in China 7 years ago! I barely even make threads either.

Woman describes torture, beatings in Chinese detention camp
https://www.apnews.com/61cdf7f5dfc34575aa643523b3c6b3fe What a terrifying thing that is going on in China at the moment. I didn't see this posted or talked about much elsewhere so figured I would post it here. If the human rights group reports are accurate and 2 million have been detained...
www.resetera.com www.resetera.com

It got TWO damn pages! Hardly anyone gave a shit. The guy lecturing us in this thread was around at that time btw. I am consistent. If anything my blind spot was the west. Unfortunately since then the west whitewashed and funded a genocide for two years and continues to permit an ethnic cleansing campaign on Palestinians. My conclusion now is that everyone is shit.

That was the post that called off scuffed:

think by and large the perception of China is shifting. People still add "I know they do bad things" to every positive take about them but now that the evil nature of America is more exposed it's become a wash when talking about trade. The EU and UK is the only acceptable trading partner to some and they support genocide just like all the rest. There is no moral high ground anywhere and anyone that ignores that is usually just racist.

Then why you pretend to care or bitch about the U.S. citizens calling others for not electing the less worse option?

“Everyone sucks and is terrible… except Palestine, I guess.”

It's so painful. Having to see them every day only reinforces your feelings, especially when you're talking and laughing with them.



But I can't ignore them or disconnect entirely (which would probably slowly help me get over them) unless I basically move.



How do you get over someone you can't have? And not just a crush or infatuation, but serious feelings going on for almost 2 years at this point.

Progressivism = Progress

How much more evidence do people need to understand that the left is the only political leaning that helps people?

And anything a progressive advocates is automatically progress no matter what. Checkmate, libs.

[benji]

Great Progressive Causes in History:
-Prohibition
-Race science
-Eugenics
-Sterilization
-Minimum wages to drive minorities out of employment
-Industry monopolization
-Banking cartels
-Cartelization in general
-Labor camps
-Worshipping foreign dictators like Mussolini and Stalin because "they get things done"
-Anti-pornography
-The Pledge of Allegiance and making it mandatory
-Targeting minority culture for forced "assimilation"
-The "spiritual" benefits of mass warfare
-Unchecked executive power
-Presumption of legality for all government actions

How much more evidence do people need to understand that the progressivism = progress?

If France had any backbone they would make a statement that if the US uses force to try and take Greenland they will launch a nuclear attack upon the US. The only thing that deters America is the threat of nukes.

Good to see this posted near the top of the thread:

Sell your sovereignty for 100k. Geeze.

how much do you need to be OK with losing your sovereignty and healthcare, greenlanders?

Greenland already isn't sovereign?  

Alright, seriously. What's going on with Greenland? I'm ready to jump down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole.
Did an ancient alien ship crash there? A new metal used in some anti-gravity tech discovered in the mountains there? Epstein hidden love bunker discovered off the coast? Entrance to Middle Earth discovered on it?
Why the FUCK does he and his administration want it so badly?

Prime real estate when the earth starts cooking in a decade or two?

t's a land bridge to Russia and Europe. Same reason he wants Canada.

Not…really though? And why would that be important in the age of transportation technology and aviation that we live in?

And he is not going this hard after Canada….yet.

Because borders are a thing. It's all in project 2025 documents.
If you own Greenland you can continuously use the North West shipping passage, since it's without ice more and more each year. And Trump would love some uninterrupted, unmonitored shipping route to and from Putin.

Vladimir Putin controls half of the Arctic Circle. Trump wants to be best friends with Vladimir and for the two of them to be the masters of the Arctic Ocean once the polar ice caps melt, ripping out all of the newly revealed natural resources and using them to become the kings of the world.

It's not even a conspiracy, it's the most obvious thing.

Thanks to our impact on climate, Greenland will be likely a lovely new shipping route soon enough. Control that and you control a huge source of wealth, let alone the other resources to exploit.

Trump may be an idiot impressed with big maps, but the people behind him are just plain old land grabbing bastards.

 

At this point I wish the EU would start taking some measures against the US, give them a taste of their own medicine. I'm talking Cold War era style espionage and sabotage.

Whats funny is, folks have said the US invading Greenland would be attacking NATO which the US is part of, so Trump would be directly attacking the US too, treason effectively.

 

And any future US federal elections are very, very much in question. imo, Trump is going to at least try to cancel the midterms. He is saying so. We do not know if our laws will hold and stop him. They barely stopped him from stealing 2020, and everything was rigged in his favor after that. The US is in real trouble.

 

That's more or less Putin's playbook on how he annexed crimea.

6billion for acquiring greenland, but no money for helping to fix the economy or adding universal healthcare.

So we got bribery money but we don't have money to feed poor children or give everyone health care? I'm at the point where I want to stop paying my taxes. Fuck this horse shit.

Tax dollars hard at work, I'm glad we cannot have health care or pay for education.

$6 billion is literally a rounding error for the federal government's annual spending. It's also a rounding error for annual spending on health care and education by all levels of government.

I cannot even imagine what giving every resident of Greenland 100k US dollars all at once would do to their economy. Inflation through the fucking roof.

Congratulations, you've given this far more thought than Trump and the GoP has.

Wouldn't this cause huge inflation, among many other problems?

Not how inflation works, especially if they became American.

This sounds like a good sign the fact that they are considering money instead of war means they know attacking Greenland won't end well for them.

100k to have your healthcare taken away, and gun violence introduced in your community as white settlers become the majority while American companies fuck up the environment.... I'd know what I would vote.

 

At this point America is so embarrassing that I don't think I can EVER visit the country again.

The last time I was in America was 2012… crazy how far the country has fallen in such a short time.

Curiously and totally related, it was around this time that the "curator algorithm" was infroduced by Facebook. The real reason for all the brain rot and extremism

Sounds like copium to me.

Nazi Germany happened long before Facebook.

Nazi Germany happened after the development of mass media by department stores in England, 50 years prior.

The current state of the internet which started circa 2012, is 100% related to growing extremism in the world.

[Boredfrom]

The people around him don't think it's good for business, but at the same time, they might believe that they don't need business anymore.

Leading the economy was just a way to amass wealth and influence. But now, they'd think it's time to solidify their status as permanently on top of the world. Time to torpedo the economy while they occupy the top rungs of society, to attain true power and force everyone else into slavery.
