Ok, She’s a cringe lib and she’s awful for doing shit like this and her pinkwashing photo op with that cop; but come on, she’s nowhere near as horrible as Destiny. He’s 1 scratch away from being a goose-stepping nazi, he literally called for protesters to be shot during the BLM protests because he didnt want them to hurt Biden’s chances. There’s just 2 different levels of bad here and K is way above D

Disco Elysium doesnt even have a story! Its just a rhythm game set to classic 70s hits.

When the devs thanked Marx for teaching them political theory when they won the game awards? That was just a funny bit!

Not exactly no, but he did do a thing a while ago where he started calling socialism “Super capitalism” or something. The bit was everything is “privately” owned by everyone. it was stupid idk

Vaush moment

The patsoc bit only makes sense when its in opposition to actual Marxists on twitter because it has some leverage in that it drives people mad and they engage with it. When you remove that element from the equation their whole program just falls apart becuase the base of maga isnt working class people who can actually be brought to see communism positively, its reactionary petty bourgeoisie who, correctly, hate communism and see it as a threat to capitalism. Theres no engagement with their rhetoric on Truthsocial or irl becuase only Marxists care to understand what the fuck they’re even talking about lmao

The universe is 13.7 billion years old. Earth formed 4.5 billion years ago, and 1 billion years later the first life forms evolved. The first Hominids evolved about 2 million years ago, modern Humans 300 thousand years ago. 12000 years ago we developed agriculture. Humans invented the radio in 1890, 132 years ago.

So humans have had the ability to transmit radio waves for 1% of the time we’ve had agriculture. Humans have had agricultural civilization for only 4% of our species existence. We as a aspecies have only existed for 0.086% of the time life has existed on earth. And life on earth itself has only been around for 26% of the universe’s existance.

Even if we assume that life began at roughly the same point everywhere in the universe compared to earth( which is a huge assumption), that still leaves a huge margin for other civilizations on other planets to have evolved, progressed, and died out, long before we even evolved.

The odds that another planet developed sapient life which progressed to a technologically equivalent or superior level to humans at the same exact time that we did is incredibly unlikely, which I think is a far simpler explanation than the dark forest theory.

Edit: forgot to move the decimal over when converting to percentages lmao. Fixed now. Its still exceptionally unlikely, but the numbers I had were way off
