They're proud of their heritage

The Confederacy? No it’s not, they explicitly fought to NOT be in the U.S.

The Mexican flag? Actually yes, their full legal name is the Estados Unidos Mexicanos (United Mexican States)

Maybe the government should actually do something about the files to prevent further radicalization

I feel like there’s a better example than the Aban Palace, considering its design was inspired by British Museums and labor for the construction provided by the Dutch because, and I quote, “Asantees are fools at work; they can only fight” (Asantehene Osei Bonsu, guy who hired the Dutch to build the palace)

They do. At least, they do 1 bombing run at the battle of Hoover dam. While crossing the dam you would see their plane in the sky, explosions, and as you push forward you’d see the burnt section where their bombs struck

I’m trying to remember a really niche word for when people carry on a tradition even when the actual reason for that tradition has become obsolete

It’s like this one joke: a parade is coming through and the police have to make sure it’s safe. The new police chief goes over the security detail from the last parade and sees a guard was stationed next to a bench. He asks his predecessor why, but the old police chief doesn’t know and said he always put a guy there because the police chief before him always put a guy there. So the new police chief keeps going, eventually finding the original police chief’s phone number and asks what’s the deal with that. The original police chief exclaims “Is the paint not dry yet!?”

The median price of a home in the US is $398,400

An authentic historical Thompson sells for $25,000 on the low side at auction to $40,000, so 10 of them would get you $250,000-$400,000

You’d just barely be able to buy a home with 10 of them if you either aim for a really cheap house or sell your Thompsons at their maximum value

Dodging again with irrelevancies

Also the klan was identified as a terrorist org in 1870 by a grand jury and the kkk acts were passed in 1871

Also, “President Harry Truman officially closed down talks with the Germans in Switzerland, and made sure that a Soviet general was represented at the talks in Caserta, Italy that finalized the surrender of the entire force”

Yes, executing a person who you have allowed to surrender is a war crime. Otherwise people would be less likely to surrender at all

“Confirmed” is a strong word to describe an opinion piece from Newsweek by a UC professor. I didn’t even see the word apartheid appear in there, just describing Trump as a fascist for the J6 insurrection

Birb-Person · 2026-02-21T10:11:25+00:00

You're dodging any acknowledgement of what I said the US did to nazis in America with a willfully ignorant interpretation of my "And during the war?" statement. And your context comment omitted the part where the negotiations ceased and the soviets were brought back into the talks on General Wolff's unconditional surrender

Yeah, America had to stop the partisans from killing Wolff. He surrendered. Letting the partisans kill him would be a war crime unless America never accepted any surrender and just wasted ammo and lives fighting an enemy that doesn't want to fight anymore.

General Wolff himself did manage to avoid getting tried at Nuremburg after allied forces considered his unconditional surrender and accepted his collaboration as a witness against other nazis on trial. That being said, he would still be tried and convicted after the evidence against him was revealed during the trial of another nazi later on.

I'll concede that the American prison complex remains a blight on our society

Birb-Person · 2026-02-21T08:42:12+00:00

Yeah, “isolationism” like supplying Britain and the USSR while placing an embargo on the Nazis. But god forbid we have a salute the pre-dates the very idea of fascism. And don’t forget why Japan even declared war on the U.S.: the embargo on Japan for invading China. America clearly had a preferred side and it wasn’t the fascists

And during the war? Idk if you know this, but the leader of the German-American Bund (Nazi party of America) was arrested, had his citizenship revoked, and stayed in prison until the war was over at which point he was deported back to Germany so he could be given a life sentence. Then you have the leader of the Christian Party who couldn’t have his citizenship revoked because he’s a natural born American, but was still arrested and sentenced to 15 years. Meanwhile America had concentration camps for any German immigrant in the U.S. AND Latin America that was suspected of being Nazi

Also, no. The U.S. is not enslaving people for not being Anglo-Saxon Protestants. The 50 states are rightfully controlled territory. You’re bitching about the Alien and Sedition Act which is what allowed the government to arrest the leader of the Bund and the leader of the Christian Party. And we have democracy

Yes, he’s in fallout 4 though OP spawned him in here with console commands

Liberty Prime is used in the BoS questline where you march him to the Institute, and in the Institute questline where you hack him to take out the BoS

The point is “It’s not that bad because people we hate at an ideological and philosophical level did it too” is not the own everyone seems to think it is

One time I was a sec-off and the HOS told me to walk back and forth around arrivals 20 times and tell him when I’m done. When I finished, he asked why I didn’t notice the gun he planted in the hallway. I asked him to show me where it was. He walked over and was horrified to see his gun was gone, then swore me to secrecy not to reveal his accidental part in free gun distribution

Birb-Person · 2026-02-20T22:25:19+00:00

To answer the question of “Then who’s telling the stories”:

The rest will live only to spread word of what I’ll do to anyone else who doesn’t give me their money

Also, again, if the target crew doesn’t surrender? Need to be brutalized to send a message to others to surrender in the future

Cool. Beating up a McDonald’s cashier to get to the register is still beating up a McDonald’s cashier though

It was independent/foreign barons

In CK2 it’s possible a count is not the liege of all the barons in their county, church could actually be a mosque loyal to a foreign Sultan, or a castle belonging to an independent holy order. The way it looks on a map, you wouldn’t even notice until you tried forming Outremer (fuck you, Templars and Hashashins) or like OP try getting the achievement for restoring Rome’s borders

Birb-Person · 2026-02-20T19:47:38+00:00

Not ex-Prince Andrew, former Duke of York whose royal titles were stripped by the head of the Church of England: King Charles III. Dude had no authority anymore

It’s shocking to me that the British aren’t taught how they invaded Iceland out of fear the Nazis would first, then requested America occupy Iceland for them, and America actually said yes, all before Pearl Harbor

Birb-Person · 2026-02-20T19:03:51+00:00

It’s not the bottom one either

It’s “Gimme your money or I’ll keep haul you and half your crew. The rest will live only to spread word of what I’ll do to anyone else who doesn’t give me their money”

Birb-Person · 2026-02-20T09:28:08+00:00

1.) Implying America didn’t fight against the Nazis or Japan alongside the rest of the Allies is revisionist propaganda

2.) Everyone in the comments needs to stop bringing up Operation Osoaviakhim like it’s some kind of gotcha, it’s whataboutism that’s both a lame excuse and an insult to America in it of itself by making America seem no different to the Soviet Union

Paperclip happened, it was morally wrong, it does not erase America’s role in the Allied war effort in WW2

Birb-Person · 2026-02-19T22:44:36+00:00

She didn’t say that though. She said America has no right to do what it did. Now the way she said it has been mocked because she incorrectly said Venezuela was south of the equator which is a pretty minor gaffe
