You’d be correct about tf2.

I would define a hero shooter as having Moba style characters in a Counter Strike style environment.

Only if it is identifiable information.

That is an original quote from Tito, the dictator of Yugoslavia, directed at Joseph Stalin

Linkin Park: Hit the Floor with a boner

Legally, it can be explained quite easily. Civil liability must only rise to the standard of “preponderance of the evidence”, meaning something like ‘more likely than not’. A criminial conviction however, must rise to the standard of “beyond reasonable doubt”. That’s the difference.

One Piece: the Shonen manga where the boss of all queer people is an awsome revolutionary working to overthrow a reprehensible racist and classist regime. Oda was always a visionary

Believibg in the power of cooperation is already communism in some circles…

Not a single Palestinian stood against the events of Oct 7th

I assume that you just don’t count palestinian diaspora? Or do you just mean those living IN gaza?

25% is an abnormally large number considering the current techonological inability to the same thing as a human could. In my experience current “AI” is mostly useful for very specific tasks with very narrow guidelines.

I love asparagus soup, so probably that one.

I also stink, much like asparagus.

It’s a bit more complicated than that. Palestine doesn’t have a strong democratic tradition to begin with. Additionally, Hamas is only governing Gaza, not the West Banks. Hamas also suppresses secular Freedom organizations. And ~50% of the people in Gaza wouldnt even be able to vote out Hamas since they are under 18. Then we have the case of Hamas indoctrination, which finds fertile soil in the impoverished and destitute Gaza youth.

All of that isn’t to say I support Hamas. I am quite vocal in my disdain for them. But Israel plays a significant part in their success. So does Iran. And let’s not forget that the religious right has been torpedoing a resolution aswell, not just the Jihadist organization Hamas. Rabin wasn’t killed by a palestinian hardliner.

The attacks weren’t perpetrated by a free Palestinian people or some recognized advocacy group, but by an extremist wing of the Muslim Brotherhood that has been pushed by Israel for decades.

You forgot about the Ford Focus bullying the Audi off of the left lane.

“Was is’n des für ein Kombi? Der macht ja voll Terror!”

That’s… pretty stupid tbh. One of the most indicative signs of alcoholism is loss of control. Enjoying a certain type of beer once in a while is not that. Or do you think entire nations in central europe are alcoholics?

Are Stalinists accepted in your circles?

Wether or not the SU handed the means of production to the workers or just transferred them to a different previleged class is debatable. But it surely did not abolish the commodity form.

From a theory standpoint, Russia didnt really fullfill the prerequisites for a transition to communism. The social structures were still too aligned with serfdom. In such an environment it is difficult to actually transition from state capitalism to socialism in a functional way, and most critiques of the Soviet Union seem to stem from this problem.

In all fairness, liberalism did change the world already. It replaced the old status quo of absolutist monarchism and was literally revolutionary in its time. It’s simply a matter of 250 years of civilizational advancement leaving it behind at some point.
