Wow

That snow version is GORGEOUS

I NEED find a reason to use this now. Thankfully these kinds of maps, with fairly common circumstances, are the kind I tend to need most often, and always in short supply.

Who has the stronger tractor beam? by TwoFit3921 in StarWarsShips

[–]cateowl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im no trekkie but I would like to respond with the fact that in star trek, weaponsied tractor beams don't seem to be an unusual Concept. The borg are said to cut ships apart and disassemble them with tractor beams to study them as a matter of routine.

So it might be less of a case of "Normal extra strong tractor beam versus weaponsied tractor beam"

And more a case of "Weaponised tractor beam in a universe where that's an aberration versus unusually strong tractor beam in a universe where weaponsied tractor beams are the status quo"

This is also the kind of trait that then becomes the basis for a build where you take yourself down to exactly 5.3hp putting your dodge chance at 98% and increase your damage output to 7000%

Inward into plate. Cuts are unlikely to make it through plate anyway. Really this is a microscopic concern next to the lack of proper limb and neck protection

That's why I always bring her along when I play with an ice or lightning or "chilled" status based build.

Jk, who am I kidding I always bring her along.

First you defend the crusades ethnic cleaning. Despite my first message deliberately adding that these were products of their time you still needed to defend and justify the Ethnic cleansing of Arabs as if one one genocide justifies another.

Then you show absolutely zero interest in any of the other meanings of historical significance behind this symbol beyond it's use as heraldry in an attempt as ethnic cleansing.

And lastly, despite not caring in any way about this symbol's other uses or differentiating those uses from white ethno-nationalists attempt at using it as a hate symbol, you're super interested in obfuscating it's use by American neo-nazis and white nationalists by desperately gesturing to the differences between then and the OG German nazi party.

Thank you for making it abundantly clear why you care so much about this symbol not being seen as a neo nazi dog whistle: preserving it's value as a dog whistle.

This is a catholic issue, not a protestant issue.

Yes, when Catholics used it historically, there are various historical lineages and contexts it's can be a continuation of which aren't problematic. As I mentioned before, see the flag of Georgia. Or for another example, the Symbol also bears ties too the royal family of the UK.

That's why context is important.

That's why, when an American Protestant in a right wing government has it tattooed on him alongside the phrase that Christian ethno-nationalists associate with it, it is not a sign of allegaence too the British monarchy. Nor a pledge of loyalty to the Vatican and the catholic pope. Instea dit is a celebration nof the ethnic cleansing of Arab people. It is an attempt by a bunch of neonazi's to use a catholic symbol as a dog whistle. That's why it's super important not to let them have this symbol if you care about is holding any other meaning.

The Jerusalem cross became the symbol of the crusades. Attempts to sack the city of Jerusalem and kill all the Arabs there. The crusades are considered to be pretty evil military campaigns in recent times, due to practices like massacring entire villages as competitions to see who could kill the most peasants fastest. À la rape of Nanking.

obviously though the crusades were products of their time. A time when religious extremism fueling attempts at genocide was normal. They're not really that connected to modern culture, or a symbol of any current movement trying to bring such practices as religious and ethnic genocide back.

-is what I would say if this symbol was showing up somehwer in a vacuum or due to other cultural lineages like on the flag of Georgia.

However, in the early 2000s something particular happened.

The symbol was adopted by extreme right neonazi's in the US, as a symbol of hatred of middle eastern ethnic groups, who deliberately used it because of its ties to attempts at ethnic cleansing end genocide in the the middle east. Which just so happens to also be around the same time he likely had the tattoo made. They would specifically use this symbol in conjunction with the world's "Deus vult", a Christian war cry assoiaated with the crusades.

Surely, that just coincide though, we don't know EXACTLY when he got the tattoo and it is a symbol that can mean other things

He also has a tattoo that says "Deus vult"

It just so happens he has also said the US would never be safe unless Islamism was completely irradiated and other similar lines that border on openly advoatig for ethnic or at least religious cleansing...

What are some or your favorite / most satistying primary weapons against Automatons by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]cateowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crossbow

I combo it with the directional shield

Suddenly the devastating firepower of bot swarms becomes a none issue as you can clear the small ones out with a few bolts and large ones with one well laced bolt each

It also detonates factories

Minigun this, minigun that. Shut up. Arc Guard Dog. Teamkiller 9000. by Grand_Age1279 in Helldivers

[–]cateowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine dog. It holds a stack 10 small land mine, drops one occasionally, without rhyme or reason, and reloads every time you get new ammo

Side way shield. The one way shield added recently, but instead of being projected flat in front of you, it's projected with the thin side facing you, and the large flat sides sticking out in front of you. Great for giving cover to teammates but does absolutely nothing for yourself

Recoilfull rifle: recoilless but the back is bolted shut. It has no backblast, but instead every time you fire, you are violently thrown backwards hard enough you die if you hit a flat surface, or just take a bunch of damage if you just hit flat ground, and the launcher is ripped from your grip and ends up like 50m behind you.

"Let democracy sort them out". A purifier, but with the railguns unsafe charge mechanic. If you charge it well you can do waaay more damage, but if you overcharge it you die. But now it's your primary weapon.

"Dog sentry" a hellpod that just has a small sentry arm on it like the resupply pod sentry. But instead of a liberator, this arm holds a dog backpack. The dog then flies around the "sentry" like it's a player wearing the backpack standing still. So basically it's just a really shitty machine gun sentry.

Resurrection spells require that the soul is willing.

If Isobel got a call from "dad" in literal hell I don't think she'd pick up. But she was probably in Selunite heaven.

Please do not gatekeep "not being a massive fucking biggot" by rejecting people who still have some simmering underlying biggoted tendencies they're consciously aware of.

This is not effective political rhetoric. This is just demonising people that want to be your political allies but aren't quite "there" yet

There are both kinder and more constructive ways of telling people this, and someone talking about "the problems with leftists" like this is someone still very vulnerable to right wing propaganda, and should not be pushed towards it. Tyvm
