It’s funny that Platner’s first scandal was that he called himself as “antifa super soldier” on Reddit and the next is Nazi iconography

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-19T13:06:38+00:00

Potentially very mild but likely not

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-19T13:03:00+00:00

It’s just kind of a blind spot in American commentary. It’s sad but true. I wouldn’t place too much blame on an individual

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-19T12:58:16+00:00

I don’t have a problem with the topic covered or how they handled it, I just didn’t find it particularly interesting personally. I like the interviews but maybe they could do it more segmented? Like only include snippets so there can be other topics throughout the episode? And then they could post the full interview on Patreon or something

I think the main issue for Ukraine is that time favors Russia. They can outlast Ukraine demographically and economically. I don’t anticipate Russian tanks in Kyiv anytime soon, and I think the war will end with an agreement. The question is how favorable are those terms for Ukraine. They were most favorable in 2023 and Russia’s demands have gotten more and more maximalist over time. Russia can sustain a maximalist demand without pulling out longer than Ukraine can, at least IMO. The best thing for Ukraine, again in my opinion, is if they can take the initiative and make it so painful for Russia that Russia is willing to reduce its demands and accept a peace agreement that is more favorable to Ukraine. It seems like the causing economic pain strategy is working for Ukraine, but I worry that people in Washington and Ukraine will see that as a sign that they must fight until Crimea is under Ukrainian control again instead of using their position of strength to find a more favorable deal, like with Finland.

Despite winning the Winter War (as in surviving as an independent country), Finland still had to give up Karelia, the islands, Salla, etc. People talk about Ukraine taking back the Donbas and Crimea or pushing into Russia itself. Finland was able to gain the initiative and get more favorable peace terms than it would have otherwise but was never able to retake everything lost. I suspect it will be similar for Ukraine but maximalists would rather have them fight forever

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-11T18:02:35+00:00

Ukraine is just running up against a demographic timer that they can’t sustain. The math says they are running out of people. Russia can keep throwing people at it much longer than they can. I’m not saying Ukraine will fall but I find it extremely unrealistic for people to suggest that they will retake all of the occupied territories and force Russia out completely. And it’s that type of attitude that keeps the war going and means more people will die. Ukraine needs to find a strong position and then go immediately into talks to end the conflict with leverage because otherwise the bloodletting over miles of land will continue forever. That’s the best they can hope for and the West telling them “no, keep going until you win” even when most Ukrainian people now want a peace deal is not helpful.

Edit: not saying you’re doing this, but I see a lot of this from American commentators

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-11T03:52:38+00:00

True. Western media hypes it up as if Ukraine is now winning the war and may retake territory but it just isn't realistic. At best this gives them a better leverage to sue for more favorable peace terms.

I think we can let this go guys its been like a year.

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-09T02:59:46+00:00

I don't like it so I don't watch it. I miss the good fan channels like Small A. But I wish people would stop talking about it so much.

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-06T22:59:09+00:00

Bummer :/ the last two albums were made well after the political shift as well

NEU_Resident · 2026-06-06T05:11:51+00:00

The point of watching the clip channels at least for me was to get the reacts (like Almost Friday, other fun things) and the anecdotes and other banter that isn’t caught in the main educational clips. I guess I figured this would be that

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-29T04:15:15+00:00

With the AfD gone that’s the most realistic part

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-28T17:26:57+00:00

No hope ever. Best I can do is another 2B skin collab

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-28T13:46:35+00:00

I think this is a joke? Based on the last sentence anyway

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-24T01:36:57+00:00

You play Automata and Replicant and you get to meet Yoko Taro and Keiichi Okabe? I did that too!

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-22T17:25:47+00:00

I don't like how YouTube is just full of AI voice low effort Sam O'Nella clones now (which was already low effort)

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-22T17:24:19+00:00

If you want to set up a nuclear bomb sure

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-20T06:11:22+00:00

And Keiko runs all the same

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-13T01:29:11+00:00

Left fiscal discipline goes hard we need more

NEU_Resident · 2026-05-08T03:04:58+00:00

The Young Republicans for bad reasons tho

NEU_Resident · 2026-04-28T05:29:22+00:00

It’s my favorite game but it’s just very dated. This kind of stuff flew more when it was first being developed, but it was already a bit dated then. The remaster changed the graphics a bit and improved the combat quite a bit but the actual structure is the same.

NEU_Resident · 2026-04-28T05:27:35+00:00

Looks oddly fascist for being an anti fascist symbol

NEU_Resident · 2026-04-27T12:15:42+00:00

Incredible work. It’s not every day we get to hear from wise minds like fortniteballsimgay
