British English has a lot more variance than Yankspeak.

We’re more likely to use “help V+ing” than “help INF”. An average larger vocabulary, atop different usages. Even with US dominated media eroding our dialects faster than ever there’s still a lot of difference out there.

I will need a more specific question to give more response. Are you a non-native English speaker living in the UK?

But Purges are a right wing phenomena to attack society, they’d never be able to off a millionaire.
A day or two before Musky gets on his private jet and flies off to a third country, or a private island or somewhere while right wing hate groups kill off minorities, leftists, and political critics.

We acknowledge that the game is a work of fiction. Historical fiction, but fiction none-the-less.

If every fifth character is also black, I think there is a point that can be made about verisimilitude and taking liberties; but since we know he really existed and that there has been debate on what he did, having a work of fiction that portrays him as a samurai under Nobunga doesn’t seem unreasonable.

To compare, we know that Leonardo Di Vinci didn’t hand out guns to people or build functional flying machines - but we know he designed all sorts of stuff ahead of its time, so it kinda fits in a fictional story with him in.

But only one of those seems to draw huge amounts of complaints online… And it’s actually the less historically accurate one.

I don’t think their lives are either, DragonFucker.

But Harris wasn’t going to make them safer or even stop things getting worse. Ask them if they felt safer in 2023 or in 2018.

Your anger is better focused at Trump and Co in particular, and the US government in general than regular random people on the street.

As for me, I wish I had a plan. I’d just assumed Harris was going to win, but here we are.

I think we might differ on how bad we think the status quo of neoliberal US is, DragonFucker.

It may be harder, certainly more violent.

But maybe a wider range of society will be more motivated to take direct action.

Edit: and yes, my theory does explain Nazi Germany. A weak, capitalist state where Socialists and Communists were gaining ground electorally led to far right non-winners given power because that was more palatable than ceeding more ground to the Left. And after that it left global capitalism in a stronger state than ever.

It was a choice between neo-fascist now or neo-fascist later, DragonFucker.

Can you not at least see how people might want to try to find other paths forwards and actually make changes?

I was all for telling folks to vote prior to the election, but I can hugely empathise and understand why they didn’t.

Kids in cages, anti-Trans laws, bombs to Israel and Saudi Arabia have only gone up from Bush to Obama to Trump to Biden. The system is the same, it just gets to mask off a bit when Trump is at the helm.

You’re all for pulling the lever in trolley problems, aren’t you?

Neoliberalism doesn’t beat fascism though and that’s the point.

Fascism is capitalism’s immune system to eliminate dissent and critical ideas.

And then when everyone is united against the fascists who’ve rounded up the socialists, the students, the ethnic and sexual minorities, Neoliberalism steps back in, wipes the blood off of its hands, and says “wow, wasn’t that bad. Let’s stick with me from now on”.

That’s a potentially interesting definition.

Dream Daddy, the daddy dating sim isn’t a woke game in this context because the conceit of it being an LGBT friendly town with a bunch of single gay dads makes it all make sense.

But a game set in 1300s Japan with a lesbian white protagonist would be woke because that seems incongruous?

I read it as these two questions:

1. Which controversial sentence said over public broadcast media do you disagree with the critiques of?
2. Which controversial broadcast sentence do you come closest to agreeing with, even if you don’t think it true and hate yourself for even contemplating as true

Don’t know if I’m right or but that reading makes most sense to me after a couple of passes and some thinking.

[Map Men / Jay Foreman] (https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCbbQalJ4OaC0oQ0AqRaOJ9g) - fun, painstakingly produced educational videos about maps.

Yhara Zayd - Not too long media analysis. Especially of Horror and through BPoC lens.

Andrewism - discussions about Anarchism and organising from Trinidad.

But Dragon Age was never good, either.

The first one was mediocre at best with some good ideas, and it was all downhill from there.

Yes, chat gpt deliberately spelt words wrong and kept it’s sentences straight forwards and without bizzare, unweildly, clauses. 🤔😂

Actually, octopi is the “erroneous” one. Although it is a very common mistake so might make the shift to recognised before too much longer.

Everyone still understands it, so it doesn’t matter.

The writer here, rereporting another interview seems fairly Musk tolerant.

RDJ probably is too. But at least he’s calling him on a few things.

That was after eloping from the second kidnapping/“rescue”.

By most accounts, iirc, they were large and slow, but also curious me friendly birds that would waddle over to check what sailors were doing.

But did the wolfman consent for the city to be built in his pack-lands?

Fair enough.
Be the change you want to see and all that.

I personally love the mad spelling, but I can understand that other folks don’t.

They’re old English letters used for writing the two different “th” sounds English has, which are fairly rare phonemes.
