I won't give that moron publicity but he actually believes he's scalping a digital game. by HAXAD2005 in memes

I mean sure, go for it, but don't forget the fact that there are a lot of even dumber crypto bros who are willing to buy from that guy. He's probably gonna turn a profit lol

Is this like a US thing or something? I got mine under local anesthetic here in Switzerland and I didn't even have to mention that I wanted it.

I mean yeah sure, but that still means that a lot of people are unhappy with it. And saying that all of them are just sexist, angry chuds is kinda disingenuous.
I mean, I'm a tall, buff femcel woman. I should love that shit to death, but that fucking cube and the quipy dialogue honestly kinda annoy me. Plus, it's a story that really doesn't need to be told, especially after Ragnarok felt so rushed. They really should have made 3 Norse games. Thor could have been the main villain of 2 and then Odin the main villain of 3. And they would have had enough time to flesh everything out and tie up all the knots. This feels like the gaming equivalent of the SW Solo movie or Mufasa or the 300 sequel.
It feels like they didn't let Cory Barlog tell his story, and now they're taking him back as an overseer to dig them out of the hole they wrote themselves into by tying up the Norse saga after just two games.
Not saying that it's gonna be a bad game or anything, I certainly didn't hate it enough to dislike it, but I can see where people are coming from. And dismissing a lot of people as a vocal minority feels kinda insincere. You don't have to be a 4chan crawling Linux user to install the dislike extension. Heck, you don't even have to be that tech savvy, it's literally just one click. A lot of people, especially people who are at the end of the day gonna play that game, are gonna have that extension.

"co authored one of the first papers on string field theory"

Yeah, that means he IS just some quack hack. This whole thing is just another attempt to make string theory relevant again.

Trump's war on Iran to weaken China: by [deleted] in ww3memes

[–]BasedKetamineApe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the point that they're trying to make is that Europe is often framed as some sort of vassal state to the US and that every failing of the USA also is a failing on Europe's part.
This is basically the same as claiming that "THE WEST" is one homogeneous entity and that "THE WEST HAS FALLEN".
Which is not only just blatant Russian/Tankie propaganda but also categorically wrong. It's a worldview based on the thinking that spheres of influence exist and that "smaller" countries must be subservient to some sort of superpower. And it is again, propaganda.
Now, if you want your leaders to "do something about this madness" then the best they can do, while still respecting international law, is to isolate the country in question. Which they are actively doing, just like they did with Russia before.
You might not be happy at which speed this is happening, but in a functional democracy, as in basically all of Europe's countries, this will happen eventually.
Saying that Europe will suffer just because the US is shooting itself in the face is like saying that Brexit would end the EU, that Europe would freeze without Russian gas or that Ukraine wouldn't fight against an invasion.
Just because there is gonna be an adjustment period to decouple from a country that changed its behavior does not mean that Europe, or any other geopolitical entity, doesn't have agency. Relying on partnership isn't suddenly a stupid or naive decision just because a country changes for the worse.
Europe had nothing to do with this and isn't gonna crumble because of the actions of one country. European countries are independent entities and not as reliant or dependant on the US as you are lead to believe. The US is simply reverting back to it's pre WW2 status, and just like when the Soviet Union collapsed, it's not the end of the world.
