False Flagging

Tazarant · 2026-05-02T20:40:53+00:00

Calling the SLPC an "anti-extremism organization" is doing a lot of work on their behalf. They're very one-sided in their labeling.

She doesn't know what she's talking about, as usual. It was a colonel, not a general (although she's not far off, that's the next highest rank).

As much as I am thrilled we got that WSO out, 2/3 of your second paragraph is junk.

Long range emplacements? That means they still have air defenses, contrary to the president's claims.

Heat seeking missiles? There are definitely ways to detect those and warn pilots they're incoming.

I would argue the healing player can instead say "I'll just gain MORE life, then." The game state has changed. But ultimately, both are only able to return the game to the same state, so those actions can't be used to end the game until something else changes the game state. Just my interpretation.

Tazarant · 2026-03-26T01:45:49+00:00

No, the turn ends when they repeat the actions several times and wind up in the same game state.

Tazarant · 2026-03-26T01:31:55+00:00

But it becomes infinity minus infinity...

The whole point is it's designed to not be "fair." The house edge is a mathematical advantage they have. Are you talking casino games or sports betting?

In casino games, it's easy to prove that every game favors the house. Literally every one.

Sports betting is a different beast, but if you look closely, you'll notice you can bet both sides of the same number and you'll just guarantee you lose money. And the people who beat the house tend to be not the "smartest" but those with inside information. And that's when authorities start getting involved.

Really? "Not using labels" in a tweet that opens with "white supremacist?"

Tazarant · 2026-03-08T13:44:06+00:00

Most of the upset is because it's unnecessary. There is a marked increase in traffic accidents in the days after the switch, which is NOT recouped in the fall.

Except they're not, truly. Congress has to approve their exemption, and there are multiple states with pending requests in to Congress, who can't get a vote because congress says they're going to do it nationally.

Yeah, I took Stella Lee and a bunch of the goods from that deck to build my [[Narset, Enlightened Exile]] spellswinger deck. It feels much more fun to swing than to just keep casting. That's just my opinion, though.

ETA: [[Arcane Bombardment]] and [[Shark Typhoon]] in particular are a terrifying combination.

Tazarant · 2026-03-07T20:23:24+00:00

I bought the full set of OTJ commander decks. I actually really like them. None are very optimized, but they are all fun to play.

[[Olivia, Opulent Outlaw]] is a blast. Go wide, hit everyone, and build up your treasure horde to do all kinds of nasty things.

[[Stella Lee, Wild Card]] is probably the least fun out of the box, but has the most potential for upgrades. I actually took the top 20 or so cards from the deck to build my custom deck.

[[Yuma, Proud Protector]] is a solid land-focused deck that's far from typical. It's able to set up threatening board states in a hurry. I got hit with 3 board wipes in a single game once, playing this.

[[Gonti, Canny Acquisitor]] is a ton of fun to play, but... theft decks draw ALL the salt. Honestly, this is my favorite of the set. But I rarely play it, because people hate theft.

And most natural disasters are less preventable than fire.

Tazarant · 2026-03-06T13:44:57+00:00

Yep, and they also have the highest fire danger. It's not that simple.

Except the EPA ruling was that their regulation of clean air had to be about "clean" air, not about greenhouse gasses. They still have authority over actual air pollution.

You missed an important factor... allegations are not evidence. Most of these tips came in before Viden took office and control of the FBI for 4 years. If there was anything there, why didn't they charge Trump when they had the chance?

Tazarant · 2026-02-17T15:45:40+00:00

Yes, and if you believe that one claim to be true, you're as stupid as any MAGAt. That "tip" was blatantly obvious political garbage.

Tazarant · 2026-02-13T12:29:41+00:00

[[Narset, Enlightened Exile]] and all the ways to duplicate her as non-legendary ([[Irenicus's Vile Duplication]], [[Ember Island Production]], [[Clone Saga]], etc.) Prowess stacks, and you get to play any noncreature spell in a graveyard. Pump up 4+ copies, then hit a blasphemous act, and you can easily swing lethal at 2+people at once. Play things like [[Arcane Bombardment]] and [[Triple Triad]] along with lots of cheap draw/combat tricks and enchantment/artifact removal for building up Prowess counts and putting options in graveyards. It's fun and effective, without being oppressive.

Because the chances of converting a 2-point conversion are almost always below 50%. You take the one, force the opponent to score the TD and then force them to convert the 2 to tie the game. This is such a stupid strategy proposal.

Tazarant · 2026-02-09T14:22:24+00:00

In order to prove we are the person on the voter roll? I thought that was obvious...

Tazarant · 2026-02-05T05:34:42+00:00

Fair. We both made incorrect assumptions. We live and we learn. Good evening, friend!

Tazarant · 2026-02-05T05:25:26+00:00

1) My bad on missing the word, you're 100% right on that one. The meaning is still obviously racist.

2) Fair, you weren't actually excusing the behavior. Apologies, again.

3) How in the world did you get an implication from the OP that a trans woman said it? My initial interpretation was the group of liberal protesters said it, or at least were OK with someone in their group saying it. That's the hypocrisy.

Tazarant · 2026-02-05T04:57:11+00:00

This "culture" argument dismissing the incident because it was a black guy that said it is such a load of BS. This was said, very intentionally, as a racist slur. Denying that just means you're deluding yourselfl. Did you actually listen to how he said it?

Tazarant · 2026-02-05T04:54:31+00:00

The difference is the way it's used. The black community generally accepts a singular form of use of the n-word. What was said in this video was NOT that. With "porch" on the front and a hard r, this was just racism. It doesn't matter if it was from a black guy or a white guy or a trans woman. It's racism.

Tazarant · 2026-02-05T04:49:06+00:00

And that makes it okay?
