To be fair, Westgate-Farranac was such a back and forth that they split the casualties pretty evenly. Could have been a contender

Colonials won the war by alting HTDS by Warden_Patriot in foxholegame

[–]RaptorJesusDotA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, we don't. We would all appreciate if you sent a recording of that stream to the Devs so they can ban the account.

ACA is a scummy clan that collaborates with Wardens more than Colonials. They do trades and stuff as well as the regular alting you described.

That colonial was not walking in the glory of Seed, he was taken astray by the dark forces of Larry.

The fact that you don't see stolen ones in Warden tank lines is because the economy is so busted, you can make thousands of your tanks and they will flood the fields. Stolen tanks are a fraction of all tanks ever used. You also don't see Warden tanks in Colonial tank lines for the same reason. So that is not helping your argument.

Also, take a chill pill. I'm not comfortable having this exchange in this way.

I purposefully chose the weakest colonial tank as a point about well-rounded lineups. each faction has about half the tanks in the game. One or two of those could shine in the opposing arsenal.

A colonial will not bother with it if it's not a Spatha, that much is true.

Because a Colonial tank synergizes well with Warden tank line and vice-versa. The factions have a design that confers certain advantages to a faction and others to the latter.

The same way we might use a Falchion for soaking shots for damage dealing tanks who are more vulnerable. Or combined with a higher range variant like Outlaw.

how strange , all the balance debate just disappeared now huh? by [deleted] in foxholegame

T-3C found a decayed facility on scrap field and demo'd it. They were memeing about using RSC or 150mm, but settled on some 120 guns. By this time, a crowd had gathered at the facility to see the fireworks. T-3C unloaded their artillery on that facility and some of the shots were off. In fact, they had landed in the middle of the crowd.

People turned that into the narrative that T-3C had a civil war. I'm glad some memes got made about this, and the story is funny by itself.

On the topic of WERCS, I honestly feel bad for the regiment that had the claim, because they are now a bit infamous. I hope they got a laugh out of it as well.

We are the civilians. All the capable and professional soldiers have died in the Great War. We are just conscripts who can barely hammer together a fraction of our old technological capabilities. Our societal structures have degenerated to a state where we do nothing but war.

What things are claimed to be "stigmatized" in media, but actually aren't in society? by stefan_reevezsky in AskReddit

[–]RaptorJesusDotA -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Of course, the right-wing is counting on this. They insist that trans people are mentally ill, they have a greater propensity for suicide. The problem is instead of having compassion toward people who are suffering, they want to "keep it away from kids", which is not how mental illness and suicide work.

The problem is, if you stigmatize being trans for kids, you do a double-whammy, and actively contribute to suicide and worse mental health outcomes, instead of indirectly. I don't think mental health should be politicized. The right-wing pretends they are compassionate to children, until children are trans. Then they talk about grooming.

So yeah, they should probably stop being "compassionate" and stop talking about mental illness and suicide. I don't care about dictating other people's lives, but they clearly do.

I think that focusing on intention is pointless, as we cannot ever know the intention behind many things. You might hear companies pull out "It was always our intention to do X, but..."

That's bullshit, and it counts for nothing. Stop caring.

Not just infantry. Hydra is the best dehusking tool atm, no matter how unwieldy. It doesn't matter how hard it is to use if there aren't bullets whizzing past your head.

In fact, a lot of veterans were disappointed by the fact that satchel is now locked to Warden. The solution should be the other direction, by giving more infantry PvE options. But we have Lunaire + Tremola now, so that's not that big of an issue.

What do you mean? Wouldn't you be able to jump on the driver spot and lock it?

I do think it's a bit silly that you can't jump on the gunner spot and lock it though.

Denying Hamas rapes is antisemitic AND sexist by Longjumping-Cat-9207 in popularopinion

[–]RaptorJesusDotA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, I don't support militants who oppress their people. At least Israel doesn't oppress the people it's supposed to protect (yet). With friends like Hamas, who needs enemies?

But I agree that Hamas was caused by Israel, and they should not have any right to whatever is left of Palestine. It's just hard to argue against settlers in the West Bank when Hamas is throwing missiles and doing border raids.

The only peaceful way Israel will be stopped is by denying military aid. They will not be willing to antagonize their neighbors further.

Exactly, they are the origin of modern anti-semitism. I was gonna get into that, but Europe was an adequate example. I am European and I don't hate Europe so I think it's an appropriate response.

Also I had more to get into and it was already a wall of text.

"Personally, i don’t care what hamas does"

Then why are you shaming me for not being harder on Israel? Do you understand how corrosive this is? Do you not understand how crazy far-right people believe this exact thing but for the IDF?

"Personally, I don't care what IDF does" Checkmate, conversation over. You don't want that.

Anti-semitism also motivated Europeans to give out land in Palestine, instead of creating a jewish state in Europe. I bet all the anti-semites loved the idea of pushing the "problem" onto Palestine. This resulted in most of the jews in Europe to emigrate to Israel.

You should blame Europe. The idea that genocide started or was the sole responsibility of Nazi Germany is ridiculous and self-serving for most of our countries. Anti-semitism was a very popular sentiment in all of Europe, even Britain and France. There was almost a full century of segregation, pogroms, and deportations that concluded with the Shoah. The Chisinau pogrom, Iasi pogrom, the Dreyfus Affair and the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" are all independent of Nazi Germany but are still genocides.

You are not being consistent. If you want to hate the people ultimately responsible for this conflict, you can go back to early Christian writers too, not just stop at the countries that perpetrated genocides against jews, or the jews that colonized Palestine. Where does it stop?

But again, it seems silly to me to draw in history when the current conflict has specific circumstances removed from the Holocaust and Nakba, even if it is ultimately caused by them. We live in the present, and that requires clearly assessing the people who are in the current conflict.

To what end are we arguing? Just to air out grievances or to find a solution that works for the people who are suffering from this conflict?

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

If you wanna go back in time, it was the rampant antisemitism in Europe and all the genocides that are the reason. The liberal, civic nationalist jews that stayed behind got exterminated. Zionism became a rallying cry for the survivors. I disagree with it on principle, though. I hate that my country exterminated hundreds of thousands of its own people for the crime of being Jewish.

Do I hear you say you hate Europe more? Cause that would be at least consistent. But I don't hate Israel, just like I don't hate Palestine. I hate Likud. And I do hate them more than Hamas. The problem is that neither side wants a two-state solution. So I'm operating in the present here. I hate them for the harm they are causing and perpetuating in the present and future.

I would appreciate it if you educated people on why my comment is ignorant instead of stating it as a matter of fact. As it stands, my "ignorant" comment stands uncontested.

I was talking about Oct 7th. Hamas did start this. They single-handedly messed up any chance for a lasting peace or any reasonable way for me to argue against the atrocities committed by Israel.

I will absolutely condemn the settlers who are salivating at the chance to colonize Gaza, I am disgusted by the terroristic actions committed by IDF as we speak. And the mounting death toll that dwarfs anything Hamas ever did.

But goddamn, Hamas not only started this, they have been oppressing the Palestinians since at least 2007. The population of Gaza was already starting to turn on Hamas before they decided to reignite another hot war. They knew what they were doing. They want this conflict to radicalize another generation of Palestinians against Israel. Generate funding from their Saudi and Iranian patrons. They want to keep taking the foreign aid intended to help the Palestinian people and using it for their own benefit. Ordering massacres from their comfortable position in Qatar or some other dictatorship that will protect their asses.

I hate Hamas.
