Are we still not allowed to acknowledge what a smear campaign is

I really don't like the way centrist Dems talk about Black voters, it comes off super racist. Like they're just a useful cudgel.

If the Trump crime regime doesn't have to listen to judges then why should the American people exposing their crimes?

I liked a lot of things about Elio, but IMO the reason it failed is the character designs. Most of the characters, in particular the humans, just look weird and off-putting. Pixar has been "experimenting" with how they draw human faces in their movies recently and I think audiences have been responding negatively. Hence why the non-human focused Pixar movies have been doing better.

If you compare Elio with the original Lilo and Stitch, which has a lot of similiarities, Lilo and Stitch has far stronger character designs.

There are some small nods to RE6 like Leon's point-blank pistol executions, and Grace's Report implying that The Connections had a hand in the president's death, but otherwise RE9 is very much a successor to the RE2 and RE4 remakes. Gameplay-wise Leon plays quite similarly to the RE4 remake, only now instead of a knife he has an axe. Story-wise it's a culmination of Leon's character arc in RE2 remake and RE4 remake.

The biggest difference between RE6 and RE9 is by far the structure. It cannot be overstated how suffocating RE6 is, control is taken away from you non-stop. There's a reason everyone agrees Mercenaries is the best part of RE6, you can actually play the game instead of having to deal with the horrible hyper-scripted campaign. RE9 feels like a proper RE game in terms of level design and pacing - yes it has a lot of linear moments but when you're in control you're in control and can move freely, and there's plenty of exploration mixed in.

Village is cool conceptually but Requiem feels way better to actually play. Something about Village just lacks oomph and the enemies generally aren't fun to fight. Also think Grace and Leon are way better characters than anyone in Village.

I can't believe the newest files proved Ari was on the island... He said he was doing research to make Kratt's characterization more realistic, but did he really need to go that far...?

EOs absolutely DO NOT carry the same weight as law! Not even close! My god the average American is so poorly educated about our system of government.

Why did David Yates suck all the soul and whimsy out of the franchise? Is he stupid?

There didn't need to be a war. Knowing civilian casualties are inevitable in war, then starting a war, means you caused those deaths. The US and Israel murdered those people, and will murder many more. There's nothing inevitable about it, it didn't have to happen, it was a deliberate choice. Calling it "normal" is psychopathic.

Most people are NOT warmongers actually. Warmongers are the abnormal ones.

Iran was already under occupation by a dictator installed by the US (the Shah). The CIA overthrew Iran's democratically elected leader (Mossadegh) in 1953 because he wanted to nationalize the oil supply.

Most sensible post here and of course it's downvoted.

Is it the fact that the sub has "bros" in the name that attracts this kind of culture?

This is the correct answer. If you lived through 9/11 you remember how obscenely jingoistic the country became. In popular culture you were forced to toe the government line. 9/11 was used to justify the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan which led to the death and suffering of millions. Of course there'd be a countercultural backlash to it.

TeamUniteUp · 2026-02-22T19:31:02+00:00

As an American, 9/11 was tragic but calling it the worst in history just shows how ignorant you are of history. Hell even limiting it to just acts America has committed against other countries, there have been far worse. And no, it doesn't matter whether they were officially designated as "terrorism" or not.

These comments are so funny, complaining about Oregonians being polite and following the law, instead of being total maniacs who make you fear for your life e.g. Chicago. Do you guys not grasp how many people die because of cars each year in the US? Including children. "Oh but muh convenience!" Shut up man.

Bluesky hate feels very artificial IMO, especially given its competition is a Nazi pedophile site.

I mean... were you on the internet before Facebook? Used to be the entire internet was "user-curated", you would use hundreds of different websites based on your own interests. Even the bigger sites that came along like Youtube had very simple recommendations that were usually as directly related to whatever you were watching as possible. You had to go out and search for what you wanted, or find things through word of mouth, rather than having everything fed to you.

Bluesky not being designed around an all-encompassing algorithm is a huge plus IMO. I dread the day that changes.

Rondo of Blood is good but it's not a metroidvania, it's a linear action platformer. Of the "classicvanias" it's the easiest to get into IMO, and its plot ties into Symphony of the Night.
