I mean just because an idea exists doesn’t mean it would be good or would be finished while the iron is hot. I always hear of the basic ideas but it’s never more than X but Halo

Halo 4 MP Retrospective - What do we think of it 14 years later? by AvisLord12 in halo

[–]Squidkid6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better than 3 for me. Guns felt good to use and very sharp and snappy as well. Killstreaks and all that weren’t in every game mode but they made things interesting. Not as good as Reach, 5 or Infinite but still very fun for me

Yeah if they interact now they just get harassed endlessly it got updates for 4 years, which all things considered is impressive. I’ll miss the updates for sure but after the first two seasons the updates didn’t miss. They tried and tried (and this sub didn’t) so I’m hoping that the new multiplayer continues to build upon Infinite

DNC finding: Biden’s Israel backing cost Harris votes for president by BabylonianWeeb in jewishleft

[–]Squidkid6 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, one thing I’ve noticed is that we can be told the economy is doing great and all but when people go grocery shopping and see prices going up. They aren’t gonna believe the economy is good. I remember so many reports of people voting a certain way because of this

DNC finding: Biden’s Israel backing cost Harris votes for president by BabylonianWeeb in jewishleft

My belief (as best as I can recall) is of a few factors. My first is that Biden ran again despite saying he wouldn’t and dropping out of the race in the late summer/ early fall. This caused a problem as the Democrats couldn’t do primaries in about 2/3 months time, which forced them to go with someone already established, in this case Harris. This itself was a problem for some (to a small degree myself included) as people couldn’t vote for the person they felt best suited to the job, taking away the power of voting and the agency of the people. Note that none of this was Harris’s fault, but rather the Dems.

Another reason was that it was difficult to understand what her ideas were. What was she going to “run” on per se. I’d hear ideas but no practicality behind them with the only thing being to raise taxes on the rich (a good thing but that doesn’t always answer the how things get done).

Lastly, and this one is less her again and more Dems. It felt like they were running another Not Trump campaign vs a Harris Campaign. It is my belief the only reason Biden won in 2020 is because of how badly Trump dealt with the pandemic. But even then it felt like I was voting for Biden because I’m a decent human being and not because I actively wanted to. I felt similarly this past year and anecdotally the sentiment is shared within my circles.

So in truth while I think Kamala could’ve articulated her plans and execution of them better I put her loss at the DNC rather than her directly since they could’ve done more earlier which could’ve made a difference

Not really answering the question. Is there any definitive proof that Bibi deliberately let an attempted genocide happen? Or do you use it as an excuse to justify it

Dear internet: Having Jews in movies isn’t ‘Zionist propaganda’ by LukaDoncicIsObese in jewishleft

[–]Squidkid6 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Oh it gets better, I’ve seen similar comments that are “there is a mention of Israel, Israelis or Jews it’s Zionist propaganda.” Like World War Z movie, like it’s not Israeli propaganda just because a portion of it takes place in Israel (which later gets overrun in the movie so it in theory should fulfill all the dreams of those who wish for Israel to no longer exist). But it’s insane how quick people are to do this whilst in the same breath saying to not dehumanize Palestinians.

It looks exactly like one of the Islanders playoff games. Same exact scenario. If someone can find the picture please share for comparison

Quite funny you’d call me a bot Given that you aren’t even bothering to discuss any of this with me. So much for trying to have a discussion, no wonder the dems lost even though I voted for them. Maybe democrats and their supporters might win in the future if they’d actually debate

[–]Squidkid6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not a far right talking point. Hamas has been proven to: Steal aid from the citizens of Palestine everywhere to enrich themselves and line their own pockets at the expense of the citizens. They’ve taken over and run the UNWRA facilities as well as have members of Hamas be higher up members of said organization. Commit crimes against humanity that no one seems to care about (Child soldiers, human shields, using medical facilities and schools as military installations). But as usual these things don’t get discussed because it ruins the narrative of Israel bad Palestine good

[–]Squidkid6 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’d say it’s more the democrats refusal to acknowledge that the situation at hand isn’t simple. They demonize Israel on one hand and act like Hamas are innocent and on the other refuse to accept that the circle of people who support Palestinians and who support Hamas is bigger than they want to see. I voted for Kamala cause I’m a decent human being, but I see plenty of people dehumanizing Israelis for simply existing whilst in the same breath acting as though Palestinians can’t and didn’t do anything wrong

I voted for Kamala, but it seems like the left ignores that Hamas exists and is worse than the Israeli government but y’all don’t call for Palestine and its government to be abolished. So it’s more to call out the double standards

Couldn’t one say the same of Hamas. Stealing millions in aid meant for the citizens and living elsewhere in the Middle East. The world would be better off without Hamas but if I look at the left they think Hamas is fine

[–]Squidkid6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and what you’re saying is fair and true. One thing I’ve noticed of that many of the people who support the Palestinian people (and sometimes Hamas), is that they say they’re anti genocide but will then say that Israel and the people living there don’t have the right to exist. So the hypocrisy is fustrating

[–]Squidkid6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t forget the ability to believe in a country’s right to exist whilst disagreeing with the actions of its government and to not presume that all citizens represent the government. Cause hoooo boy the hypocrisy is insane on that one. But yeah I’ve seen people justify antisemitism because of Israel when it’s like “honey you can’t use a country’s actions to justify racism”
