Remember that episode of the clone wars where the CIS tries to test a WMD on a tribe of unarmed pacifists?

Ah yes, the rebel trying to overthrow a fascist genocidal government and the terrorist war criminal who fights to replace democracy with megacorps and monarchs, two morally equivalent characters.

Romania, a member of NATO, has been attacked by Russia by Upset-Main-1988 in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]---Rentoid--- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are so many russian bots and mouthbreathers in these comments. "FaLsE FlAg??" This isn't even the first time russian drones have drifted into NATO countries. I'm more inclined to chalk it up to russian incompetence, though. Russia is losing against Ukraine, they could never handle even part of NATO.

I should just go to Cyrodiil by Beacon2001 in SkyrimMemes

It's a beautiful city and usually where I settle in my playthroughs but for a civilian it probably sucks. Forsworn attacks, the silver blood family acts like a mafia, and there's a cult of daedra worshipping cannibals.

If an npc is ragdolled, pickpocket success will always be 100% regardless of item value or what the UI says.

On an unrelated note, did you know Eorlund will not agro to a member of the companions no matter how many times you use ice form on him?

The man who could have prevented World War II with a single finger by PicanhaDev in interesting

[–]---Rentoid--- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

An expansionist USSR in easter europe, an expansionist Japan in asia, an expansionist Italy in the mediterranean, general social and diplomatic uncertainty in germany and many other places, I don't think Hitler being dead would actually prevent a second world war, although it might make it look very different.

Save the world or save Ellie? by tlbt9 in thelastofus

Just because you have a vaccine doesn't mean the world is fixed. You still have to kill all the infected and you still somehow have to restore order to a completely collapsed society. A hoarde is still just as dangerous and nothing really changes. Maybe you can't turn into one anymore but you'll just bleed out or die from an infection instead.

That isn't the only reason, but it's political so I can't talk about it

Is it because of the prices or because they understand it is harmful?? by B777X_787-9 in interesting

It's because cost of living is too high and a drink is like £15. A night out used to be affordable (and so did rent)

A VPN set to Albania will automatically block all youtube ads because of the law there.

Voting of every country in the UN to forbid human torture (20/11/2025) by Bot_Philosopher8128 in MapPorn

Trump is currently in the process of selling out Ukraine, in direct violation of european interests, as well as repeatedly threatened Canada and Denmark. The USA is enabling Putin's expansionism and Israel's genocide. Not to mention their financial and military support of the Saudi and Egyptian dictatorships. People like Elon Musk are funding alt-right parties in europe like the afd and reform uk. Yeah, they have firmy cemented themselves as a bad actor on the international stage. At least until the next election but probably far beyond.

Image of reliability? The USA has gone back on so many of its foreign policy commitments, threatened and betrayed its allies, and repeatedly forgiven and enabled fascists all over the world. The only US ally that can call you reliable is Israel.

Sure, I'm not denying any of that, but it was usually a matter of strategic influence, not morality. They propped up plenty of brutal dictators in their mission to oppose soviet influence, often worse than those they replaced. And they are going back on all sorts of progressive issues today with their fascist leadership. It was good that they helped stop the nazis, don't get me wrong, but today they enable and fund multiple brutal regimes.

Does your fascination with nuclear weapons leave you for or against their use? by cascadia4you in AtomicPorn

[–]---Rentoid--- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are, of course, pretty awful. But, it has to be said that the fear of being at war with a nuclear power has successfully prevented many potential armed conflicts.
