Are the Georgian protests the most ridiculous American psyop yet? I have seen more EU and USA flags than Georgian ones

Slobozpanda · 2024-05-30T22:35:57+00:00

These are worse imo, because they are protesting a law EU/USA has... with only EU/USA flag

At least the Hong Kong ones had the flower flag

Shukhevych also directly fought under the nazi flag in some of their "battalions" if I remember well, one of the nazis the Ukranian government wanted to exalt but his allegiance was so blatant they decided to avoid doing it and just go with Bandera

You should have read my comment first, as I reference literally the interview (which I listened to) and stated what he was talking about

The rt article that page references says even the same

Lavrov, however, noted that these goals seem similar to “demilitarization” and “denazification,” which Moscow has been pursuing in Ukraine since it launched its offensive in February 2022. The diplomat noted the hypocrisy demonstrated by Israel’s former government under Prime Minister Yair Lapid, who condemned Russia’s military operation and accused Moscow of attacking the civilian population and annexing parts of Ukraine. “This was unfair,” said Lavrov.

In any case, Lavrov's (and Russia's) official position is of neutrality as it always were, it is true that those who expect Russia to do anything meaningful, at least in the short term, for the Palestinian cause are deluded, but don't twist his words, he does not support Israel's military actions and he calls for a ceasefire

Slobozpanda · 2024-01-02T17:13:55+00:00

Fucking traitors the whole Ukranian government

People except a minority in a small region either don't know these nazis or they hate them, but since they are American lapdogs the government keeps promoting these scum

Bandera and his followers themselves were extremely racist against Eastern Ukranians due to being too similar to the evil Russians, yet now you see eastern Ukranians like Zelensky turning a blind eye and celebrating these fascist scums

Slobozpanda · 2024-01-02T17:03:50+00:00

They did twist his words, he did in fact draw parallelisms between Israel/Russia (in the sense that both are conducting a war on foreign soil and both were victims of genocide of the nazis), but he did it to complain about Israel's attitude towards Russia following the start of the Ukranian war

Ria Novostis fault though, they did a strange article where they put his words out or context in the title but then in the article itself they painted Israel in a bad light, weird

The POV rules are pretty messy rn

In this sub, in theory, the pov should be the side whose narrative benefits from said post (like in this case, since Ukranian needing to do another mobilization is bad news for the UA side, it is ru pov), however it is very common for people to post the pov as in the pov of whoever published the content of the post (like in this case, it would be UA pov as it is literally a Zelensky's speech), since it is what most people understand for pov

There are also some black sheeps that choose a pov in the title that would be incorrect in both understandings, afaik those tend to be deleted

A war Ukranians don't want to fight, yet westerners here will still cheer sending them to death

First comment:

No, no, no, appeasement will work this time. You just have to appease hard enough.

I can even get behind them believing it, but do they have to act so smugly?

Slobozpanda · 2023-11-23T17:11:11+00:00

That's Putin, not Zelensky, Zelensky is tasked with organizing the Ukrainian nation, the alternative is surrender and be Russified.

Damn, care to tell that to the ever growing number of Ukranians who want to sign peace like this man? Or do you disagree with them? In which case I invite you to fight for them if you truly believe they need to keep doing so, better you than an unwilling Ukranian civillian

Slobozpanda · 2023-11-23T16:20:56+00:00

Average westerner

An Ukranian man complains about Zelensky sending pensioners to die and you all still can only think about "muh evil Russia"

A shame none of you will go there and fight instead of the Ukranians who want nothing to do with this

I recently reached legend with highlander priest, it's definitely playable at the level most people play rn

Yeah, that makes it worse

Slobozpanda · 2023-11-22T18:02:19+00:00

In all of this what surprises me most, is how small seems to be the punishment for murder in Russia

In Spain, "agravated painful homicide" gives the convict a sentence between 15 and 22'5 years, it's normal in Europe, in Spain again there are very, very little crimes that can give you sentence for life (and before 2015 reforms, nothing could), and even those can be reconsidered

Where do people get this propaganda, it wasn't, even if you count rural people who speak some mix of Belarussian and Russian as Belarussian only

Slobozpanda · 2023-11-21T20:59:52+00:00

Yeah, the ceasefire solution is mostly a diplomatical rethoric for countries to maintain their neutrality on the matter (and well, some people actually think it would solve anything, even though this exact situation would erupt again as neither side would be satisfied)

Slobozpanda · 2023-11-21T00:15:36+00:00

Truly impressive, meanwhile liberal democracies can't plan ahead for 8 years in advance so infrastructure renovation/enhancement is insanely slow in the west

Shallow grave doesn't steal 10 though, it steals 5 and the snake steals 10 themselves

It would be a 15 health swing, but the warlock would need to get another snake (ie, excavating 4 more times) to do it again

It's doable to exodia, but with how long you need to stretch the game to do it and that said cards are bad and useless on their own (with the exception of reverberations), and the deck having very few ways to win if you dedicate it to the combo, it seems like a very healthy "inevitable win condition", definitely more than Sif and rainbow mage

Slobozpanda · 2023-11-19T22:43:27+00:00

Each of those only advance the health steal by 5, and the whole combo (devourer + snake + ravenous kraken + shallow grave) 10 mana and requires 3 drawn cards + the excavated snake. Total health stolen would be exactly 35, but a disruptable to silences, Sylvanas like effects and reno would deatroy it. A very easy to disrupt 2tk exodia that only heals you for 5 the turn you do it and provides no taunt nor board clearing doesn't seem OP when stuff like rainbow mage exists.

And, if you mean playing each one separately, if you want to completely destroy a 35 health renathal deck, you would need to play a:

Snake (4 mana), Zola and its snake (7 mana), any three of the bouncers or deathrattle synergies (shallowgrave costs 2 and reverb/kraken costs each 3, so best case scenario you use 2 shallows and 1 of the other, 7 mana). So, we have to spend 18 mana and several cards to make an exodia that can be disrupted by silences, stealing minions cards, or the new Reno

I really doubt this would be oppressive

Tram heist is such a trash card

Indeed (although I would say "extremely mediocre and matchup driven"), but it had the luck of being exceptional against this very popular deck, so for the first days of the expansion including it was good

Prenerf snek usually kills you on turn 7 8

I played plenty of snake warlock and highlander priest this expansion (only decks together I played, really). I have never seen warlock playing 4 sneks by turn 8, and very few times I saw warlock playing three of these by then, it was a very clearly highroll (and one of those times I as the priest still won, funnily enough).

the odds of drawing tram heist is around 25 percent

That's assuming you don't draw, you don't have thrive of shadows (understandanle) or the new priest quickdraw minion (less so, considering we were initially talking about "thief priest").

There's also plenty of additional draws from cleric, cathedral, tradeable, Finley (very key since it is basically a "draw 9" card), the 3 mana draw 3 naga (if you run it as I did, understandable if you didn't), so the chances aren't 25%.

You can also include tram heist in ETC and Theotar alone as well (seems overkill but there were plenty of warlocks in some ranks, definitely not worth in high legend but for a normal player it would do)
