The children yearn to huff the fuel. :saw-gerrera:

I thought it was more an issue with the concept of the dunk tank (racist carnival attraction) than just the word dunking.

I can’t remember what other video it was, but I think it was a video with a thumbnail containing Stalin, Hitler, Gaddafi, and Pol Pot, and it had the same “Something Good About Someone Bad” kinda deal. Stalin and Gaddafi on the same tier as those genocidal fuckers?

They’re pretty much low-tier fascists who only like leftist leaders because they’re being constantly touted as “red fascists” rather than the revolutionaries they are. Consequences of capitalist propaganda I suppose, literally any way you slice it, if you eat that propaganda, you will come out having a fascist opinion.

Edit: Kinda makes me think a lot of those MAGA white-supremacist “communists” actually kinda follow this logic.

I feel like sometimes, people forget capitalism, at a certain point, is all about creating problems and then “solving” them. I mean, we already mostly figured out the solutions to things like food and water scarcity, entertainment, child care, and at minimum 60% of problems human face. With the new era, we aren’t trying to solve problems, not really. We’re trying to solve problems under capitalism, which is a, and forgive my slightly ableist language, a “fool’s errand” - a task that will never be completed so long as the thousands of artificial obstacles exist.

People talking about medications in the comments, and sure, medicines are good, but they could easily be produced in higher qualities, in larger pallets, in whatver-metrics-you-need-to-measure, because you no longer have Eli and Lilly trying to tell the doctors that they need to do this or that to ensure Goldman Sachs gets their money.

I would like to believe this post isn’t a critique of solving problems, it’s a critique of the capitalist methodology of forcing artificial scarcity (reducing your mental health when you are continuously deprived of your basic survival needs) and trying to “solve” that artificial scarcity within the framework of the capitalist system. Even if you create super-psychiatry, even if you create super-mega-perfect-psychiatry, you will never create a good psychiatry, and you ask why?

It’s because of capitalism. The problem is not that many problems exist, because the reason many problems exist is because somebody is forcing them to exist. And it’s capitalism. Maybe I’m mixing up the primary and secondary contradictions a little bit here, but if you remove the systems empowering, upholding, and catering the whims of all these awful, selfish, racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, ableist, specialist, any other bigotries I haven’t named, then how can they continue to exist?

If, in the new socialist society, the bourgeoisie and their reactionary squires don’t have a leg to stand on, then they fall. So, to the hypothetical medicine lover here, it’s not that medicine sucks, it’s that medicine is constrained and beholden to the whims of capitalism. I’d like to think this is a pretty moderate (moderate in terms of socialist / communist ideology) take, but if it isn’t moderate, then please tell me why it isn’t.

Could you tell me how you got it working?

I played this game, and while it’s kinda cool, it requires a lot of grind and extremely good strategy. On top of that, you don’t even

Looks extremely fucking complicated, but I’m a sicko who forsakes sanity for player choice.

It’s probably going to be a living nightmare trying to even get this game to run in the first place (looks kinda old, plus I’m using Linux) but I’m sure I’ll learn something and jank it in some way or another.

Not going to lie, this legitimately looks like my type of game. What is it called?

MORE STICK!!! LONGER STICK!!! POINTIER STICK!!!

I will tie thousands of sticks together to create the first multi-kilometer long spear, and I will proceed to poke the casemate until it ceases it’s bombardment of my position.

Nah, that would CLEARLY go to the most overpowered, all-warrior-destroying, completely busted and broken meta that is constantly finding ways to resurface.

LONG. POINTY. STICK.

Hopefully this is a bit higher quality.

It’s a quote by , 1945, after Berlin fell

“Stop calling the cancer aggressive, it has a right to defend itself.”

Thank you for all the responses! I feel like replying to everyone individually would be spam-y, so I’ll just say you’ve given me a lot of information to work with, and I’ll do my best to internalize what you wonderful people have said!

Pointedly agitated. This little goober might even be, dare I say, mildly perturbed?
