  • When libs find fault with

    , expect a five paragraph essay explaining how they feel bad but ultimately won't change what they were gonna do anyway. Because common sense.

    When chuds find

    unpalatable, they don't vote.

    ...gosh, I wonder how the Overton window has slipped so far to the right...?

  • Chuds don't really care, and I kinda don't think this means anything will change for the US right as a movement. For them, the Yankee Culture Game is defined by taking the opposite position to your "opponents". Now that this is something Republicans are practically indistinguishable from Democrats on, it's gonna fade into the background with the rest of the D.C. consensus. To be dragged out for shallow point scoring on slow news weeks.

    For those of us who bother to listen to and remember what our leadership has said and done, whenever the topic comes up feel free to take Nd6 psychic damage, with N being the number of years you've been paying attention.

  • False flags are a resource sink (money, time, organization) with very uncertain end results. Will the public buy it? And for how long? If you get found out, how bad is the blowback gonna be? It's far easier to wait for a genuine attack to come to you and surprise shock oh no, you've just so happened to be caught unawares!

    That's as conspiracy brained as I let myself get about

    . One of those, Never Let a Tragedy Go to Waste moments. Maaaaaaybe some agents or agencies or elected officials heard rumblings about what was gonna happen and just looked the other way, but either way it was a genuine terrorist operation.

  • I like the comparison, but yeah I agree with you. If there is any value made by attention it is vastly lower than the value made by labor -- and only really there in aggregate. Unlike having the output of someone's labor, having one person's attention is nothing. But having hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of people's attention is powerful.

  • Before Deltarune, I had never played an episodic game where subsequent chapters ever did better than the first one. Wait for the complete release if you must, but I have to say now is a really exciting time to get into it and I think it uses the episodic release well.

  • Kinda sounds like a murder cult. If only the press weren't so constrained by libel laws, they could print up some eye-catching headlines and really put some people's feet to the fire demanding to know more about the "Fort Brag / Fort Liberty Murder Cult"

    ...oh wait, that's the Brits. So the Yanks have no goddamn excuse.

    Frequently, I hear people say the wealthy developed world won't experience as much climate disaster as the rest of the world. Is that... really very accurate?
