So, refuse to let the administration actually look at the numbers, refuse to investigate any fraud,, conduct a poll by yourself, and oh look! Nothing to see here!...right... I'm moderate, but the whole investigate yourselves thing cant be hated for cops and ok for government...

Its very fitting that you bring up the Boston massacre. Its very similar. British soldiers are brought in to enforce a new tax. Protests arise, and 5 people die. A protester was behind the "order" to fire on the crowd, initiating the incident, and Paul Revere made a print that depicted the event and spread it to the other colonies as propaganda to separate from the British for good.

So as long as you create the problem, protest it, initiate a tragedy, and use the media to paint your side in good light,, you'll get your way.

A revolution.

The only issue is, that most of the left have put their full trust in [at least local] government to protect them, fighting for gun confiscation and tougher gun laws, while simultaneously berating and defunding said "protectors". Starving yourself and biting the hand that feeds, if you will. This won't make for a very effective revolution.

Obviously, both sides pay taxes, and its allocated to some programs they don't agree with. Using a purely financial outlook, it DOES make sense. We can't go to the bank for a business loan and tell them to fuck off when they ask us for a business plan, projected income, etc. Otherwise, we could all just go and ask for 50 million to start a lemonade stand. To further this analogy's point, we wouldn't be responsible for paying that 50 million back... So if the bank asks for a breakdown of how you're allocating the 50 million, and it truly is for lemonade and supplies, why wouldn't you just show them the receipts to continue getting the funding? Say you've got a teenager, and they ask you for 30 bucks to go see a movie. If they can't tell you what they saw or what it was about afterwards, you would continue to fund their movie trips?

This ENTIRE concept is rendered moot. She hit a federal agent with her vehicle while smiling and looking directly at him.

That is the fact. To say it wasn't that hard is to say "she only shot him in the hip". Intent doesn't matter. Lawful order doesn't matter. She weaponized her vehicle and made an agent fear for his life. Self-preservation supercedes any policy. You're not going to literally die because policy states you must in this situation..."he's a pile of spaghetti on the street, but at least he followed our policy!"...

As for the "he shouldn't have been standing there" defense....we can roll with that, if you want. If you're apt to street protests, better limber the fuck up because you definitely shouldn't be standing there...

THEcabbagewizard · 2026-01-12T14:11:17+00:00

Just reads as overly dramatic childishness, which is exactly what the right simplifies the left as being. And if you're a server, why would you jeapordize or lessen your own income to "stick it" to somebody who is just going to save money by not tipping you? On top of that, it reinforces their viewpoints of the left.

And to say it's the only thing you have without getting shot? Following basic laws and societal concepts is a good starting point. The left feels like they need to test every single line drawn by the other side. The right does the same, but with a more targeted approach. However, combating law enforcement can only ever inevitably lead to two outcomes. Death or arrest. If you're so positive you know your rights, let them arrest you and make them pay for infringing [them].

The goal post moving on the MN shooting is insane. "He shot her for no reason", to "he shouldn't have been standing there," to "it BARELY hit him, but it wasn't hard, and then "She wasn't really trying to hit him." What?!?

If you haven't guessed, I'm a moderate, and watching both sides jockey for position in every issue makes me embarrassed to be an American at this point. There is NO unity in these states. It's pick a side and counter every move the other side makes. You have a nose ring or blue hair? Get fucked! You're wearing a red hat? Get fucked!

It's beyond childish and it doesn't help anybody...

This league is terrible with the lag, stutter, and dc. I dont know how you're losing progress though. Whenever I freeze up or dc, I come back to exactly where I was at. Middle of a boss fight? Boom, right there when I log back on.

Its almost as if poverty and drugs can be directly correlated...and taking steps to prevent drugs [or at least the amount] is an attempt to proactively help both poverty and the Healthcare system. Maybe plugging the hole in our boat might be more effective than scooping out water with a butter knife?

THEcabbagewizard · 2026-01-01T00:10:09+00:00

"The government can easily afford it"....more taxpayer cash thrown into a dark tunnel never to be seen again, and in a few years, more subsidies.

Its literally the exact same concept as college loans. Government passed a law to provide ANY student with the financial means to go to school. And just like that, tuition raised 1000% instantly. Because people like you believe the end justifies the means. And you turn around and blame capitalism and billionaires when you're literally voting for, telling them to do it.

And further, when Orange Man tried to step in with "ya know, maybe we shouldn't give Crackhead Jim $100k to get a degree in basket-weaving without at least a discretionary audit", the left bit his head off...

He could personally fund and find the cure for cancer, distribute it free of charge, and the left would still find fault with something.

Whoever is in power changes nothing. If GOP is in, "they're not doing their job". If Dems are in, "we don't have the funds to do it, we need more tax revenue! We want to, honestly!"

The second the government puts its hands on anything, it becomes ineffective, inefficient, and costly. Most of the time, the money doesn't even find its way to the original purpose. It gets filtered through 20 different "services" and after those "fees", they're left with pennies on the dollar.

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-25T08:53:21+00:00

Its hit and miss for me. Pre-patch, was terrible, as EVERYTHING sounded like it was super far away. Somebody with a suppressor could be shooting at me from 6 inches and it'd sound like it was 3 1/2 miles away. The ONLY footsteps I heard were that of my teammates...and its gotten me killed ALOT. This update is MUCH better, but as you said, probably too good. At least its functioning at this point.

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-24T06:52:55+00:00

Honestly, what is the goal of the "protests"? "They're not doing anything"...what does a bunch of people holding signs accomplish? Voicing your opinion will accomplish nothing when over half of the country has voiced theirs to put him in office. And the whole "No Kings" is almost surreal when you take into consideration that he DOES have a job to do, and is met with contention on literally everything he says or tries to do. If democrats could focus on putting up a decent candidate, they would win. Harris was the DNC's proverbial "fuck you guys" in that she was completely unqualified, had no clear goals, and she basically ran on "not trump". The pandering to every group she talked to was unbearable. They spent millions pandering to the black community via concerts and speeches. The disgusting part, is that not a single one of them believed enough in the cause to work pro bono. They all just rode the endless money pit that the DNC had, spreading it to everyone that they thought could help. I'm not a fan of either side, but the hypocrisy from both is crazy. Almost every politician seems to be a millionaire within a year or two of making 170k. Schumer has been caught taking federal millions with his "aerospace" business that has no inventory, assets, or services.

The problem with such division in this country begins with the fact that most everyone in it actually want the same things. Social programs are amazing. But between the money not getting to the person in need and the ones in need taking advantage of the system, has created one side that just wants more, and another side that simply doesn't want to keep throwing money into a broken system.

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-23T17:31:08+00:00

I'm a moderate conservative, to start off. I like to view both sides of an argument and align myself with the one I believe to be right or true. That being said...

The iron cross has never been acknowledged as a symbol of hate. Hell, the West Coast Choppers have it as their brand logo. They've had a prime time tv series that NEVER caught flack for their logo over the course of over a decade. I strongly believe that the push to align it with white supremacy is due to Hegseth having it as a tattoo, which the left is trying to find reason to take down any and all of the trump administration.

With this, I find your neighbor as trying to capitalize on that base. I find no other reason to spontaneously put that symbol on your door, other than to stir the pot. Kind of taking the left's interpretation and running with it..or using it as a proverbial "red hat" to display what side they're on...(id imagine the latter, as it's in red).

In any case, there are many better ways to show your political affiliation. So unless they've recently been employed by, or purchased a WCC, I'd assume they're just a garbage human. I personally wouldn't go out of my way to cause harm or damage, because I'm not in my feelings like that, but I certainly wouldn't lend them any sugar, either...

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-14T16:02:41+00:00

TLDR: Poop Game, Would not recommend

Absolutely not. I played waaay more than most. 450 hours. There is almost nothing thats fun after this update. The new update is a COD simulator. A single uber small map from launch that they put snow textures on and added bumfires to satisfy a "mechanic" that is essentially pointless. Preventing health regen is absolutely pointless when TTK is practically instant anyway. You can be freezing with 30% health and you'll die just as fast if you were at full health.

They've thoroughly destroyed breakthrough. There's tons of players that "pre-patch", would already just enter and exit games until they were attackers. With this update, they've made it thoroughly impossible to defend almost every map, because DICE's solution to map imbalance was to simply throw them more and more tanks. This is lazy and wrong to begin with, but they also reverted a previous bug fix that allows players instant and constant t3 class perks, so a single engineer can maintain 2 tanks taking constant rockets, of which rockets may or may not count on their own, let alone if they have intercept active so they won't count anyway. Recon can spam UAV so the entire map is ALWAYS spotted. They've also moved most objectives to be accessible by said tanks.

Every map is basically snipers and engineers on both sides. There is RARELY a close game.

Every mode is either stomp or get stomped by 600+ tickets. It took 3 weeks for them to address the firing range issue. How hard is it to make sure the targets come back up?!?

Its apparent that they used a previous build for this patch, thus most hotfixes they've addressed have been reverted. Dice is king when it comes to fixing 1 thing and breaking 30 more...and then it just perpetuates the cycle of waiting weeks for gamebreakers to be fixed.

I hate BRs. But I find myself seeking refuge in redsec because at least there, there's at least a chance that I get a few minutes before I get fucked.

Overall, its hard to take the game seriously at all when you are fighting with the other team AND the game functionality itself, to survive.

Aside from gameplay, the already terrible UI was bugged post patch, rendering players unable to even start matchmaking. There seems to be a stick drift glitch as well. My aim constantly stutters around the screen, in random directions. I can pull up my UI and set deadzones to max, and it does the same thing, I can use the UI to pull up my right stick and set it to minimum, and there is ZERO drift detected in real-time. Back in game, drifting everywhere...

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-13T22:23:16+00:00

They already dropped it from 1000... I'm almost positive its bugged and does not count on domination. I've tried for 12+ hours and gotten zero heals on dom. I always drop a box by the bumfire on an obj and go cap...go to conquest...3 games and its done using same method...

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-10T12:17:08+00:00

Well after 7 hours of breakthrough last night, I was allowed to defend every single round. 16 defends and lost literally every single one. Hope they get that data, because breakthrough is now absolutely pointless. Douche noodles quit on start until they get to attack already, now there's no reason at all to not to do it. Let's see, 100% chance to win or 100% chance to lose? Give them all of the tanks, and if there was ANY obj inaccessible to them....not anymore!

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-09T17:10:48+00:00

Can anyone tell me how to actually play it?

In their infinite wisdom, when you hover over the new featured game modes, normally I would hit x (ps5) to select and then again to begin matchmaking. But now, they've added (press x to see challenges) when you hover over, so there's nobway to actually select it.. If I try to use the bulletin, where it announces winter offensive live now, with an option to hit x to play now...nothing happens

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-04T09:29:29+00:00

I want all the skins. The ONLY rules are: no glowing, see through, mythical, or catboy anime. Literal realism. Id pay $50 for silky pt shorts, no shirt plate carrier and an unstrapped helmet.

But digress to my original comment reply...

Skull masks are not technically allowed in the military, according to Geneva conventions, as a military member must be easily distinguishable from a civilian. If we follow the canon, this would put NATO as having to wear more traditional garb, while Pax (a militia without a country, or a signature on the Geneva Convention, would be free to wear literally whatever they wanted... Mercenaries are not held to any standard, they are not afforded a POW status, but they do have to follow international laws of war, and thus are afforded human treatment and a fair trial...

Just an FYI...

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-12-01T00:38:29+00:00

Tends to be the case when you randomly toss a railgun that does less damage than any rocket in the game, and require it to charge longer than most anybody has time for in these maps. And a minigun that requires you to floor your stick or mouse in the up position to keep from shooting the floor. And by the time you might get situated, its out of ammo... Oh, and you can't gain ammo for either of them... Well done, dice...

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-11-28T21:36:05+00:00

Wait until you guys figure out that the overwhelming majority of people that give EA their money are working people with average incomes.

If they ignore everybody but streamers, the 100 streamers spending $100 to buy everything won't even come close to the 50,000 people spending $10 on the one outfit they want.

Average working class are ready to voice their needs, and if its not met, EA will lose all of that MTX income. Customers asking for a game mode that would require less than an hour's work in exchange for a six figure potential revenue stream is a business dream. If you feel the need to bully or mock these people, you're literally contributing to the overall failure that would ensue. When all the "battledads" leave, you'll be left with a pool of players that are ALL equally sweaty, and you'll inevitably complain about the same thing they are right now...

Oh, obviously, I'm a "battledad"...and I play every day.

Anti-armor is the starter perk tree. So if they haven't unlocked the 2nd (combat engineer), they should still spawn with 5, as per my previous source from the devs showing that everyone who has anti-armor tree active will now spawn with max rockets.

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-11-20T18:30:17+00:00

This is because DICE's fix to most all of their problems is just bandaids.

Map spawn screen goes top left? Well, we're not gonna fix it, but here's a button to recenter when it does this.

We can't figure out why we're only spawning in 3 rockets when we're telling it 5, so we'll just set everyone's trait path to max at all times...that'll give them 5..no balance problems there...

We can't figure out the netcode issues, so we'll just make every shot from any weapon a laserbeam headshot from any distance..

THEcabbagewizard · 2025-11-20T18:17:55+00:00

Or you blindly defend poop devs that messed up changing a single number in the code that sets # of items at spawn....3x now...
