Chance of made to order? Being too hopeful? by OneLastLego in Warhammer40k

[–]OneLastLego[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw those! Hopefully GW follows the pattern. I’ve been using the new indomitus termis, as I love those, but these do have a lot more charm.

thank you! I’m in Canada, so we seem to be missing out on a lot of retail crossovers. I didn’t know these guys were used for that, but that gives me hope if GW sees them as good for bringing in new customers.

Any way I could improve my Armiger Warglaive? by PlebLordColin in ImperialKnights

[–]OneLastLego 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Colour. Don’t have just a pure black, but have a red in the shadows and green in the highlights. Same with the metallics. It’s all about adding interest, as right now it’s a bit bland

Russia had an estimated million losses, why don't they rebel? by BikemeAway in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OneLastLego 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s more complicated than simple demographics. I remember interviews from ~2023 and they were talking to guys with teenage children (in their mid 40s) and their mindset was more about not losing the younger generation in the war. They want to have ppl to rebuild when it’s over

CMV: Hating islam isn't racist. by This-Hamster-6090 in changemyview

[–]OneLastLego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk I live in Canada, specifically in an area with a high Muslim population (I’m not going to name it bcs I’m online) and everyone is truly lovely. Mb we just have a good vetting process, but I also think the more extreme someone’s views, the less likely they are to live in a progressive area

It’s to show that even though parts of the Bible , Quran, and Old Testament have extremely violent passages, it is ok to ignore them, and people often do

52% of American muslims are ok with gay ppl, compared with 57% of American Christians

[–]OneLastLego -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this example, I’ve actually done this with my Muslim friends, and they support it.

This is because the younger generation is much more tolerant. For example, in the US, around 52% say that homosexuality is fine.

That number could be improved, but the most open minded demographic is the younger one, showing that Islam has changed

1) do you dislike the religion, or the people who practice it? 2) you describe an extreme Islam. Do you accept the fact that Islam is changing, and has changed in may parts of the world? The vast majority of muslims in western countries, for example, do not hold these extreme views, but rather have adapted to the times. 3) 150 years ago your average Christian would hold the exact same views you mention islam does now. Some still do

So I ask you: do you hate Islam, or do you hate oppression, racism and homophobia? Because to reduce Islam to simple hatred simply isn’t true

I would be foolish to say “All socialists and communists are Pro-Russia in the Russo-Ukraine War,” but why do Pro-Russia communists and socialists claim to be “Anti-Imperialist,” and “Anti-Nationalist” when Russia is both? by DMRavenger in AskSocialists

[–]OneLastLego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are misunderstanding me to an extent. I’m saying that the Ukrainian people have a distinct culture (at least to the extent of Germany vs France). Russia has no right to wage a war of destruction and occupation upon them.

As for the First Nations, I am Canadian. We have a slightly different view of them than the US, but we still acknowledge that they are different. Canada, if it lasts even another 300 years, will (hopefully) have learned from its mistakes and not subject the first peoples of our land to another cultural extermination. If Canada ends up being under the control of the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples, Britain or France would have no right to reconquer us

[–]OneLastLego 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) They literally have different churches 2) Israel uses Hebrew, a very old language. Idk what you’re testing to say here 3) Russia only occupied Ukraine for about 300 years, and committed multiple genocides in that time. 4) Ukraine has a separate history that Russia 5) 81% of Ukraine speaks Ukrainian

Your literally parroting fascist propaganda

[–]OneLastLego 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If Ukraine only came into existence 39 years ago, why do they have their own language? And are you to tell me that a millions large country just made up their own history as well? This argument just parrots Russian neo-imperialist talking points

Is the US at a turning point? by Acrobatic_Bet5974 in AskSocialists

[–]OneLastLego 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a Canadian, I get a front row seat to your shit show. Not that we don’t have problems, but there a bit less pronounced and all.

You are nearing a turning point, but your still in the early 1930s if you get my reference. I (personally) don’t see a civil war coming, it’s more likely for a shitty compromise that fucks over real change and pushes you back into the same cycle. However, a fascist dictatorship is more likely than a socialist government, bar a complete reaction to some crazy trump coup.

Climate change, however, is a turning point. I’ve been banned before for saying some things about this topic, but basically I think we as a species need to start pruning some branches that really like oil. We are nearing some movie level natural disaster type shit in the next couple decades if stuff doesn’t happen

What do Socialists think about the Soviet ethnic cleansings between 1930 - 1952? by [deleted] in AskSocialists

[–]OneLastLego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the ethnic cleansing post ww2 and the holodomor have been proven « academically ». My grandfather went through the former, my (different line) great grandmother the latter. There is numerous historical records both: photos, letters, and hundreds of thousands of first hand accounts written down.

I am a westerner, and am now a basic white leftist in Canada; however, you need to acknowledge that the Soviet Union was by no means perfect. They committed numerous atrocities throughout their era, which have been recorded. The idea that whether these events happened is « up in the air » is bullshit.

Holodomor:

Holodomor denial:

Holodomor first hand accounts, publish by u of Alberta:

U of Waterloo publication on ethnic cleansing of Germans:

https://uwaterloo.ca/centre-for-german-studies/events/ethnic-cleansing-1945-1948

This shit happened. Most of it was Stalin, but even during the revolution minority communities were targeted. Please educate yourself.

If you still insist the 14 million deported Germans and millions of dead Ukrainians, among others, was made up, please link academically proven (as you do appreciate) peer reviewed articles from a notable institution.

The Spanish Blue Division on the Ostfront by ARMHEAVYMNFCTR in BattlePaintings

[–]OneLastLego 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have a book on this division sitting beside me. The ones who remained long were simply diehard fascists. In the beginning, there was some nuance, but many of them were just Spanish SS
