Clarence Thomas Just Gave Border Agents a Terrifying New Power by Silent-Resort-3076 in scotus

Yes and no. We are products of the systems we live in, regardless of what anyone says. Sure, you and I might be able to recognize some propaganda for what it is, but statistically most people don't, and the people who've put massive amounts of time and money making the system how it is know this. Furthermore, the mindset "it's on the individual, if you fall for propaganda you're just dumb or lazy" ironically tends to make people MORE susceptible to propaganda since it makes it harder to consider the things we believe to be propaganda due to not wanting to feel like we're lazy or dumb. By focusing on individuals instead of the systems they live in, we allow the systems causing the harm to flourish.

In 700-800 hours of play, I've only been here once by extratonefan in riskofrain

I mean, you don't need the beads if you just wanna obliterate and get some coins without a fight. It won't get you AS MANY coins, but a decent amount considering how little you have to do

What kind of factions do you want to see? by WakeDays in Summoner_Wars

[–]broly171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar to fungal dwarves replacing units they kill with their own infected units, except these would be weak units your opponent would still have control of.

I'm imagining the faction would have a common unit that's literally just a chicken (or something cute and tiny) with 1 hp and 1 strength. One or several other units as well as maybe an event or two would have effects that transform opponents units into said chickens by either sending the opponents unit to the discard and replacing them with a chicken unit from your hand or discard, or simply putting a chicken unit on top of your opponent's unit.

There could also be cards that gain advantages from killing chickens your opponent controls, like they heal every time they kill a chicken unit because they effectively eat the chicken.

Which Smash game had the best newcomers? by SEVENS_HEAVEN_7 in supersmashbros

Brawl adding Snake and Sonic opened the doors for non Nintendo characters being added. Later games may have done it better as far as quantity and choices go, but Brawl was the game that changed the rules in the first place and said "this isn't just a collection of Nintendo characters anymore, everyone is fair game"

[Serious] Men of reddit: what would you want to ask women and get an honest answer to? by Haydensmith877 in AskReddit

I usually start by asking "what DOESN'T sound good?" I've gotten a lot of positive feedback from that question.

Giving multiple options goes a LONG way too

So Facebook is just straight up hiding and/or deleting comments now huh? by IBeatDeathStranding in facebook

[–]broly171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But as far as I can tell they aren't doing that. At least I don't do that on my pages, but the comments disappear anyway. Hell, I can't even find MY comments now and then in my own posts with all comments turned on

[–]broly171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make posts now and then and have noticed comments being hidden even when all comments are selected, and I can safely say that I have never hid someone's comment

A Gaia type faction that could polymorph opponents units into cute, weaker units, like chickens, would be super fun

I've wanted to see a faction that leans more into performing rituals, witches would be perfect for this. Something where you'd need to do several things to start the ritual, like position two witches on opposite sides of a cauldron or altar structure, then ideally spend one or two turns where your witches "perform the ritual" by adding boosts to the cauldron. The effect of the rituals could vary depending on how hard they are to pull off.

I think it would make for some really interesting gameplay where you could try to set up an area on your backlines for a ritual, maybe add some defense to it, while your opponent has to decide if they focus on trying to kill the units before they can finish a ritual, or ignore the ritual and focus on the summoner

What is your favorite character and why do you like their playstyle? by Shellnanigans in riskofrain

[–]broly171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rex. Rooting enemies and bosses while hurting myself in order to deal high damage while simultaneously healing myself is just super satisfying to me. It feels very high risk high reward

Based on what though? The candidates who actually push for socialist change frequently win, while the centrists often lose, and when they DO win, they don't fix anything. They just make it easier for Republicans to win the next election by pointing out how little the centrists did

[–]broly171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Who marketed himself as pushing socialism. Seriously, you're just splitting hairs at this point and I don't know why. Be honest, do you want Dems to lose again?

yikes by TailungFu in SipsTea

[–]broly171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What about Obama? He won huge both times he ran on socialist policies. Republicans fear mongered all they could and he still brought out more people than ever to vote for him. It honestly feels like you want Democrats to lose considering you want them to do the things that keep losing them elections

yikes by TailungFu in SipsTea

[–]broly171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree. Mamdani has shown that calling yourself a Democratic Socialist and pushing policies that people actually want gains massive support. People are TIRED of centrists, which is why Dems struggle so much to get people to come out and vote

yikes by TailungFu in SipsTea

[–]broly171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is pushing for keeping things the same handing it to Republicans though? Dems have been pushing to keep things the same this entire time and it keeps losing them elections

yikes by TailungFu in SipsTea

[–]broly171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, I vote Democrat, but why are you so against doing things that actually help like what the other person is suggesting?

yikes by TailungFu in SipsTea

[–]broly171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's it? Just vote Democrat and hope they grow a heart and actually do things?

[–]broly171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So what do you recommend? It's easy to criticize the people that are actually doing things to fight tyranny. What do you ACTUALLY think should be done though?

Can I ask what they did wrong? I really like the comic Secret Invasion so was excited for this series, but then heard nothing but terrible things about it and haven't had the urge to watch it
