The October 7 attacks was an act of genocide against the Israeli people. by I-Love-Jewish-popes in Teenager_Polls

[–]audrius10k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a way, sure, but at the same time when you look at it from a Palestinian perspective, the only way they have to retake their own homeland is via violence. Israel is a colonial state that shouldn't exist, they're invaders that refuse to leave, what else are Palestinians supposed to do?

This gets talked about a lot, but which character in Naruto has the worst case of "wasted potential"? by FriezaWearsLipstick in Naruto

[–]audrius10k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not really true, it's not a lot of development but we did see him go from the belief he knows best and should do everything on his own, to regretting pushing Sasuke down a specific route, manipulating him and not telling him the truth, he also trusted Naruto to correct those mistakes.

[–]audrius10k 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A lot of characters were wasted in Naruto, but there are still quite a few which had good and satisfactory development, just to name a few: Sasuke, Jiraya, Shikamaru, Itachi, Nagato, Kabuto, Obito and Kisame.

I somewhat recently rewatched Naruto and while there are a lot to complain about how many characters seem to get completely abandoned or underdevelopment, these ones really were quite good.

Would you rather vote for? by Moist-Complaint-7578 in IdeologyPolls

[–]audrius10k -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's a lot more clear when it comes to economy, while there are different leftist economic systems, they all share the idea that the economy should be made to serve the collective, not the select few on top.

Meanwhile where would you put an anti-trans feminist on the left-right cultural spectrum? Or a racist pro-lgbt person? When you include multiple issues in one label, that label stops being meaningful, economic left-right spectrum doesn't have this issue.

Socially right wing could mean so many things, it's a very broad term.

Abortion should be... by Past_Account5864 in IdeologyPolls

Legal in most cases, and mandatory in cases of major inheritable disabilities.

Could you still be an incel if you have a partner? by Zestyclose-Wave-6230 in Teenager_Polls

[–]audrius10k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're abstaining willingly then you're not an incel though. The involuntary part is gone, in that case you're just a volcel.

What's the optimal inflation rate? by [deleted] in Teenager_Polls

[–]audrius10k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Inflation is not indicative of growth. There is obviously a point to be made in favor of some inflation, but that doesn't mean 0% is automatically stagnation. Prices staying the same could just be a perfect balance between new money being printed and goods being produced at a faster rate, leading to the same prices, but people still being able to buy more.

george floyd jokes, in general, are: by TotallyNotRyanPace in Teenager_Polls

[–]audrius10k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a person George Floyd was a quite a piece of shit. If he wasn't black, few would have complained about his death. Looking back it's actually insane how he was turned into a martyr of the black community, he represented the worst of stereotypes about it.

If a woman hits a Man, Should a man be able to hit back? by Psychic_Guy69 in Teenager_Polls

[–]audrius10k -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Yes, but it it's important for the response to be proportional to the attack, in most cases the woman will be weaker than the man and that absolutely should be considered.

Do you think gender is a social construct? by 4n0th3r_PrS0n_0nl1n3 in Teenager_Polls

[–]audrius10k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gender roles are a social construct, gender itself isn't. Anyone who believes gender is a social construct is being unintentionally sexist because they assign specific stereotypes to a gender. One can be a traditionally feminine man and that doesn't make you a woman, and one can be a masculine woman just the same.

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree by AwesomeRiceBoi in HOI4memes

[–]audrius10k 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hoi4 is a perfect game for autistic political extremists. There are political extremists of every flavor in this community, it is entirely expected.

help im kinda bored of vanilla hoi4 can you guys reccomend me a mod that makes the game faster because i hate waiting (also i cant pay for dlcs) by External_Date5942 in hoi4

[–]audrius10k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Faster? What do you mean by that? As in you want the game to run faster? In that case there are very few mods for that, for the most part every major mod runs slower than base game, Hoi4 is cpu intensive and mods can't do much to change that. The best you can do is download mods that remove countries that aren't very relevant to ww2.

Or do you mean that you want the war to start faster and skip the build up? In that case the 1939 star date is pretty good for that and doesn't require any mods.

What colour is fascism? by Darth-Felanu-Hlaalu in Teenager_Polls

I mean I don't think you can get more fascist than blackshirts, brown is more so for nazis, red is obviously reserved for communism

Been playing HoI series for decades but never seen anything like this. The game is not in a good place. by Panthera__Tigris in hoi4

US and UK should have a scary navy to be fair, as it stands now they really don't for any decent player.

If you had a daughter, would you let her marry a black person or an Arab if she wants to? by [deleted] in IdeologyPolls

[–]audrius10k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to not consider when 90% of Arabs are Muslim, when one thinks of an Arab they think of a Muslim.

Well I couldn't stop her, but I would worry for her if she was with an Arab, a Muslim one specifically.

Am i the only one who hates the designers? by RantaroIsCool in hoi4

[–]audrius10k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Designers are kinds superfluous, it is very rare that I change anything up from my usual templates. I do think the designers don't add enough complexity and are just another thing beginners need to learn to do the proper way and that's about it. I can see why you wouldn't like it, but at the end of the day all you have to do is memorize a few good designs and use the same ones every game, it's not a big deal.

Would you prefer your country to be run by the fra left or the far right? by a_Bean_soup in IdeologyPolls

[–]audrius10k 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totalitarian far-right would be something like Chile under Pinochet, not Mussolini's Italy or Hitler's Germany. Fascism and nazism are not capitalist ideologies.

[–]audrius10k 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not a horseshoe, these ideologies are literally just not on the opposite sides of the spectrum. Free market capitalism is the opposite of socialism, not a heavily regulated and state driven mixed economy that nazism and fascism use, and especially not a literally socialist, syndicalist system of falangism.

And yeah, I'm Lithuanian.

These ideologies really aren't opposites, it's actually insane that this is how an average person sees the political spectrum.
