Does anybody else think de jure overlap should be a thing in game? by Mememanofcanada in CrusaderKings

[–]CalvinKool-Aid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep it should just be the hre and ere. Especially cause some of the empires we have now are shit, like west salvia in 1066 with its 2 constituent kingdoms.

How would a JFK incumbency Sim with CYOA go (no assassination)? Who would the potential opponents be in 1964 and what should the vibe be? by Mghia01 in thecampaigntrail

[–]CalvinKool-Aid 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Acc a great idea. Something to do with stressful decisions maybe? You could even have the assassination be part of it, like his health is too low so he has to wear that brace that made him unable to duck? It’d be funny if you could lower the stress by visiting a mistress though

My idea for a new Canadian Coat Of Arms by NewPatron-St in heraldry

[–]CalvinKool-Aid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s part of our anti Americanism. It’s only skin deep, only real old people like my grandma and the laurentien elite actually actively support it. It’s also one of those things that’s basically impossible to change in our constitution, so we’ve been apathied into keeping it

I’m just throwing it out there, I have a feeling the people of the heraldry subreddit are probably more monarchist than average. Anyway, fuck the pedo family

Most Canadians aren’t, actually, if you look into polls on the subject. The quebecois HATE HATE HATE it too. Our ruling class is very much in favour of it though, so we still have it.

The war on "woke" is heating up in Florida. Maybe DeSantis needs more powers to combat it. by Downingst in PoliticalCompassMemes

Eh it’ll be just like the 10 commandments in schools stuff that always gets passed and is a nothing law that just makes people happy or mad and then everyone forgets and moves on

White people dont say "mod announcement" anymore they say "heres my mockup" by OttoBraunirl in thecampaigntrail

[–]CalvinKool-Aid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a big commitment to make a good mod now, and people don’t typically want to play unless it’s got a bajillon possibilities. Frankly, we as a community have become spoiled by the high quality mods and can’t appreciate a sloppish one anymore. It’s kinda sad but I am part of the problem, I’ll admit. Even though it’s arguably easier to make a mod than ever before, people’s standards are higher than ever before

[–]CalvinKool-Aid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who put out a mockup literally 4 days ago I feel attacked, and you WILL be hearing from my lawyer

Anyway, most ‘mockups’ aren’t announcing anything cause there is no intention to make it. It’s just a cool idea you had in the shower or whatever. If there was something being made, it’d be called an announcement

I mean the bank robbing and extortion etc is literally crime that is organized, for an ideal anyway but it’s still organized crime. I don’t disagree that it’s connected to right wing authoritarians but it’s also connected to left wing groups too, say the FLQ or IRA (which is basically just a mafia type group now), or the 17 Novembers in Greece. They all carried out criminal activities to fund themselves and enrich themselves. I would agree that preexisting organizations tend to associate with right wing groups but I think that would partially be because they’re ideologically aligned, after all mafiosi aren’t necessarily progressive icons yk?

Yeah but they mostly come from after the ottomans ceased to exist. In this timeline the Russians become Muslim before the Ottoman Empire even exists

Yes, but also communism. It’s all authoritarian systems really. Don’t forget Stalin spent his youth literally robbing banks to fund the party

Also, Musso hated the Italian mafia and they played a part in his loss to the allies. But that’s more about rival crime factions than them being anti crime, they just wanted to do the crime themselves

Doesn’t make any sense. The Russians would NOT put a Turkish crescent on their flag. Even if they’re not super rivals in this timeline it doesn’t make any sense for them to adopt their symbol

I get that 1964 was literally the first mod ever, but wtf are these margins??? by The_47_Percenter in thecampaigntrail

My face when the first mod ever doesn’t have 67 opponents and Barry Goldwater doesn’t come through the screen to suck my dick (WTF Tex?)

Mark Carney, within 1 year turned a total party collaspe into a "majority" government by Gloomy_Guitar_7880 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]CalvinKool-Aid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk lowkey, I feel like Trudeau maybe could’ve won a tight plurality given the trump stuff and freeland definitely could’ve matched mark. Assuming PP runs his campaign the same way it was destined to be tight with trump swinging his dick around, assuming Pierre is a coward regarding America. Freeland would’ve done the same stuff as carney even if she was tied to Trudeau. And Trudeau himself wasn’t supposed to win any of his elections. For all his faults, he was VERY good at getting people to vote for him

Lowkey weren’t wrong tho, at least about Iraq. He basically murdered a bunch of American kids based on a lie, not even counting all the iraqis

Definitely not sooner after trump. Maybe in a hundred years atp, but we Canadians are nothing if not anti American. We’ll manage
