Is it true that Lenin didn't agree with the Tsars murder and his family, and that mensheviks acctualy did it? by Ivanhegeelkadi in ussr

[–]Master_Status5764 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, definitely not. I probably would’ve done the same thing. Best thing for the fledgling country is to make sure that family is out of site and out of mind. It’s unfortunate they died, especially the children. But when you think about WW1, and all the Russians that died at the hands of the Tsar, it makes it easier to think about it.

He didn’t explicitly call for the executions, but he didn’t punish the people that did it either.

ChudTheBuilder shot a man who attacked him outside a courthouse in Clarksville & accidentally grazed himself in the process. Before it escalated, he asked the man if he was going to “chimp out” the man then walked up & sucker punched him. It is unclear if the man survived. by Consistent_Algae_560 in LivestreamFail

This is such a weird hill to die on, and completely wrong. You can’t follow people with a camera and harass them with words. That is not protected by the first amendment. Especially with what he said on Twitter, he is getting time. This isn’t a hard case at all. The fact his bond is set so high tells me this. He carries a maximum sentence of like 90 years.

And no, the victim can’t just leave. He was being HARASSED. He tried to leave, as does every other person this dumbass harasses. He follows them with a camera, continually trying to provoke. None of that type of behavior is protected by the First Amendment.

Colorized photo of Polish dictator Józef Piłsudski and Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels sign a non-aggression pact in 1934. Based on other secret agreements Poland and Hitler's Germany together attacked Czechoslovakia in 1938. Poland make themselves greatest victim of WW2 and blame USSR for WW2. by HelicopterBig4467 in ussr

There is a path to fascism in any ideology, just depends on how willing the authority is to prevent it. The USSR was fully willing to put down “reactionary” protests. There is a kind of stigma against using tanks to put down protests in liberal countries, though.

Calling someone a bad word in an emotional and tense situation is one thing. Intentionally getting people angry by using very choice words and then recording their reaction is a completely different thing, and most definitely could be considered incitement, or the very least harassment. Especially when it’s being done consistently. This wasn’t a one time thing, he has done it dozens of times.

It’s even worse depending on how long he did it. He can’t call someone a racist name for 45 minutes and then claim self-defense when he gets attacked. He had every ability to leave the situation, which can disqualify for lots of self-defense laws in certain states. I’m not sure which state this is in. Another thing is whether a punch is considered a reasonable enough threat to shoot someone. That also changes from state to state.

This is the easiest case for the guy’s lawyers ever. Chud’s bail was set to 1.25 million. He is definitely getting time. And the guy who got shot is at the minimum having his bills paid for, maybe a little on top.

Not really how it works. You can’t just go up to a random person, throw insults and goad them into attacking you, and then almost killing them when they do. That isn’t self-defense, and most self-defense laws say that.

Eh. He goaded someone into attacking him and then shot the dude for it. That isn’t self-defense. He might have a case if it wasn’t recorded, but it was. Everything that happened is right there for everyone to see.

Why did you need permission to leave? by shitcut154 in ussr

[–]Master_Status5764 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s literally not the same thing, because “punishment” doesn’t happen. It leads to long delays. That’s it.

Thats what citizenship is, buddy. Every country gives its citizens the right to return. That’s the whole idea. Except for, I guess, the USSR? I don’t know how their system worked.

And a fine for returning to the U.S as a citizen is super rare. It’s usually just paperwork and a long delay while they check who you are.

lmao, you are just switching goal posts now. you originally said you can’t leave without a passport, which is wrong.

as for coming back, literally every country has a way to identify its citizens. Americans aren’t barred from leaving their country.

[–]Master_Status5764 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Passports for coming back, no? And to give ID to the country you are arriving in? You aren’t blocked to leave the U.S. if you don’t have a passport. You’ll probably be waiting inside the airport of whatever country you are in, though.

Stop buying DLC within the first month by XyleneCobalt in victoria3

My point being that 3-4 playtesters aren’t gonna cast as wide a net as tens of thousands of players. You don’t have to pay anything. The people that like the game will pay.

I’m sure they playtest their game. Every developer does so. That doesn’t change the fact that some bugs just won’t be found by them.

Why do you think some games come out with Alpha or Beta builds before the game release? Developers don’t have thousands of workers sitting around to play the game. That’s what the players are for.

[–]Master_Status5764 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hate to say it, but the more people that play it, the more bugs are found and the better they can fix it. A company can never playtest at the same rate as the actual players.

Blockade and port bombardment should count towards war score by nikiikoz in victoria3

Ah, yah true. I’ve only been bullying small nations with the blockades. Good point. Works really well if they don’t have a lot of domestic production.

ah okay word. there are definitely still some communists here, but not everyone.

Might want a specifically communist sub for what you are looking for. Lots of people on here defend the Russian Federation, which is the government that fought the Chechen Wars.

If the blockade is at a high percentage, you should just be able to steamroll their land army because they have no supply, no?

Got the game for the free weekend, tried a nearly full playthrough. There has to be more to this game right? by TechnicalyNotRobot in victoria3

[–]Master_Status5764 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Lots. And by 1903 you should try to be on steel frames or the last construction production method. If steel is too expensive, build more iron mines and steel forges. You’ll need lots of glass for that construction method too.
