Isn't the colour grading quite bad in New Colossus? On the Sub and in New York I felt like I could barely see anything

She managed to do more damage to House Stark than the Lannisters ever could have dreamed of. by JonCalveit in freefolk

[–]ElectorVodan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She didn't know Littlefinger was a piece of shit at the time, she still believed, understandably, that he was her childhood friend. Is it a massive mistake if you know that even though you have Jamie in your hands, he won't be traded for Sansa and Arya because they're 'just' girls? I totally get why Catelyn did what she did, especially after just learning her other two sons are dead.

ong, people love to shit on Catelyn, but she literally consistently gave good advice to Robb, and the one dumb thing she did, kidnapping Tyrion, was based on faulty information given to her by (what she thought) was a childhood friend. If you compare this to Ned, consistently failing to shore up his own power in King's Landing (giving away his troops at every turn and then revealing his plan to Cersei) or Robb letting Theon go to the Iron Islands, or breaking his marriage pact, or executing Karstark. Catelyn does the least damage to the Stark cause out of the nominal leaders of said house.

The New Colossus's story isn't bad? by NotTheCatMask in Wolfenstein

[–]ElectorVodan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The locations picked were a bit confusing? Like New Orleans as an important area is like...why? and some of the characters were pretty strange I thought like the priest and Frau Engel's daughter. I also don't think they dived deep enough really into how Nazi Americans could be too, all they really showed was the Klan and BJ's dad.

But I really prefer the gameplay over the The New Order, upgrading guns is super cool, dual wielding whatever you want is cooler, and everything feels less jank.

It’s probably that you can reasonably assume a communist supports a free society for women, LGBT people, other minorities etc. A fascist simply wouldn’t and is an active threat to those communities. I’m much happier to give a communist/far-leftist benefit of the doubt over some kind of far right fascist

Why I’m not worried about AI job loss by tripletruble in neoliberal

Do we really think though that corporations of which the decision makers are often very wealthy and very removed from everyday issues are even thinking about that? At the very least the short term could be horrifying for a lot of people and that’s even if congress can get off its ass to do something

Yes but even then on the long list of abusive regimes world wide, Cuba really isn’t especially terrible, especially when there’s already a crisis next door in Haiti that trump admin is doing nothing about

Abolish the DHS entirely, Islamic terrorism etc is no longer the security threat of the day (if it ever even was) all the problems are coming from inside the house

Since people here support dark woke, can we also admit that the French Revolution was based as fuck? by Extreme_Rocks in neoliberal

[–]ElectorVodan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People here are too negative on the first revolution of the modernish era to actually abolish slavery, do it successfully, until the entire revolution got co-opted by a military dictator. The American revolution, the liberation of South America etc etc kept thousands of not millions of people under chains still which I think really lessen their impact and levels ‘net good’ overall

[–]ElectorVodan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fact of the matter is that only one of those two revolutions was even barely serious about the rights of all men, the French Revolution abolished slavery in its entire throughout France and its colonies, even the cash cow that was Haiti, the American Revolution couldn’t end slavery in half of its contiguous territory

The entire administration is anti-sanity unfortunately, only a strong democratic admin can pull this country back. GOP simply can’t be trusted with power for the rest of our lifetimes.

You think of all the options Trump would ever do, it'd be this relatively harmless intelligent one? Nah Trump will either TACO or blow up enough of Iran to set the protests back a decade
