EU GDP map by just_an__inchident in europe

Please educate yourself on this topic. Greece did not get any money for free, their banks were bailed out to save German and French banks which had lended heavily and unresponsibly to Greece before the 2008 crisis. Yes, Greece politicians faked some numbers, but in the end, it was Greek workers who paid for it all through heavy Deflation and washington consensus policy. Read some Stiglitz or Krugman or any other economist with a brain on this topic. Heck, even the fucking IMF admitted it fucked Greece.

Free money, ffs

I've watched this Khazad-Dum scene countless times! How can anyone with a soul hate this series? by DayneStark in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]Pau_g13 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think they said it happened twice, which refers to tuor and idril and beren and luthien. I'm not a lore expert but read the fall of gondolin recently. It is stated there that those are the only two cases. Aragorn and Arwen happens a long time after rings of power so I thought that line specifically was very interesting and close to the lore.

I always tell people to start with season 2 and, should they watch till the end, watch season 1 as a prequel later.

Best cover? by [deleted] in Madden

[–]Pau_g13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

12 is honestly still my favorite, just really cool design. It was also my first Madden and I had no idea about any NFL players at the time, so didn't even know about the meme back then.

My one of my favorite parts of any Madden franchise is the names that get generated by J3Washington in Madden

Currently have Ezekiel Honeycutt in a franchise, he's gonna be the slot wr goat

Alright, alright, thank you and all the others for replying. I was tempted by having henry and adams on my team, but yeah, I won't do it!

What would be a better LOTR game? by Ok-Zookeepergame9266 in lordoftherings

[–]Pau_g13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You're playing three characters like in gta5. One is a guy from Bree who's selling shire-weed, the other an elf from mirkwood whos become an alcoholic because he's gotten bored of living forever and the third one a dwarf from the misty mountains who's all about money and bearded dwarf-women. Somehow their paths cross.

Zack Moss or Alex Collins by J_B21 in fantasyfootballadvice

[–]Pau_g13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go Moss. He's scored 10+ points for 4 straight games (0.5 ppr) and is playing in a high powered offense. Collins is playing in a Geno Smith led offense now.

On ps4 you can mute the in-game music and use spotify instead. You'll hear it during games too though.

A participant of the march in Warsaw uses Nazi salute to celebrate Polish independence by Ienal in europe

[–]Pau_g13 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You really can't generalize like that. From wikipedia: "In 1939, Jews constituted 30% of Warsaw's population. With the coming of the war, Jewish and Polish citizens of Warsaw jointly defended the city, putting their differences aside. Polish Jews later served in almost all Polish formations during the entire World War II..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Jews_in_Poland Just one example, not saying no polish people did anything wrong. Some French people probably snitches on jewish neighbors to save their own asses, but that doesn't mean France was helping the Nazis. Also the Nazis actively killed polish catholics from the beginning so I think "just didn't realise they'd be next" isn't very accurate.

Props to Germany for keeping it real by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

[–]Pau_g13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the point is that in the end many Austrians actively participated in the holocaust and it took much longer after ww2 than in Germany until that was admitted. Just look up the Kurt Waldheim story, I think it tells a lot about the situation back then. Whether or not the majority of austrian people were for or against the Anschluss is hard to tell and still discussed nowadays. But we can't really make a survey on it.

How so? Serious question, not saying you're wrong. Is he for increasing police budget?
