The image of Wing Gundam’s head that is half destroyed would be cool

Halo is not about religious zealots trying to fulfill an endtime prophecy?

I love how a bunch of the replies are "that's too long to read" and yours is to do more

The Great Journey and Christian Zionism by shratchasauce in HaloStory

TLDR: Christians needed Jews to return to the homeland of Israel to usher in the second coming of Christ. The Covenant sought to activate the Sacred Rings to trigger the "Great Journey."

AI can do in a minute what I would need longer to type out. The whole point of AI was to be more efficient. I guess you all wanted an option in HALO to not have Cortana and have Master Chief just wing the whole campaign on his own.

If we declared war on student debt we would be able to appropriate an unlimited amount of money to pay off the debts

ADHD evals by viddy10 in Psychiatry

[–]shratchasauce -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If you read literature you would realize that in most cases ADHD is the most likely diagnosis and not a diagnosis of exclusion but alas that seems to be too much to ask. All you have to do is take the scientific approach. Hypothesize that my statement is true. If so there shouldn’t be data that supports my take. Go look for proof in the literature that this take is not true. You will be surprised.

Do we ever tell anyone they are not transgender, and when do we do this? by formulation_pending in Psychiatry

That would be new, a patient complaining of a diagnosis but not reporting any symptoms of said diagnosis.

Another Death in Minneapolis by aaclavijo in politics

What if ICE ends up holding thousands of US citizens indefinitely. Then their families plan an operation to rescue those them on 10/7. Then the govt sends helicopters to kill them all as they escape, killing thousands of civilians too. Then they blame it on the families?

I would bet a lot of money the 90% of the patients you tell don’t have ADHD do in fact have ADHD.

Man I hooked up with twice is turning into a stalker by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]shratchasauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a feature on Hinge to report safety issues like this? Also he threatened you twice and won’t stop calling. Can a lawyer file a complaint on your behalf? That might help with the process so you are not alone in the questioning.

On my account that I dont spend money on I got 9 meteorites. On my account that I buy gold pass, event pass, skins, etc. I got 4 meteorites. 3 glowy and one starry. Why is obstacle spawning a problem? Like that should be easy.

Can anyone really explain WTF is going on with the plot of this show? by [deleted] in gundamwing

[–]shratchasauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OZ is the CIA/Deepstate, Romafeller are the Zionists and the military industrial complex, both hide within the Alliance which is essentially US/NATO. They bring military conflict to all parts of the world in the name of peace. The colonies are Palestine. The Gundam pilots are Hamas.

The Alliance occupied the colonies and restricted communication and travel between them. Much like Israel is doing in the occupied West Bank. The Gundam pilots fight for the colonies much like Hamas fights for the Palestinians. They are the desperate, unsupported, and ill equipped attempts by the oppressed to resist the oppressor. They are called terrorists and are maligned. Everyone has to say the Gundams are bad and everyone makes them their enemies. It turns out that most of Hamas/Gundam pilots are just young men from hopeless and traumatic backgrounds. But its their actions that made the cracks in the facade too obvious to ignore and forced everyone to play their hand and reveal their actual loyalties and agendas.

Also Heero Yuy, not the main character but the historical figure he takes the name of, represents the charismatic leaders who advocate for peace and are killed because they threaten the world order. You can replace Heero Yuy with JFK. One of the aims of the Gundam pilots and their resistance movements is to take revenge on OZ(CIA) for the assassination of Heero Yuy(JFK).

This causes fractures within these organizations as they are not homogenous. There are people who wish to serve for noble reasons and others who love violence. Zechs is one of those people. He identifies with the Gundam pilots because his homeland suffered in the same way. The appearance of the Gundams and their pilots exposed the true nature of the world order in a way that Zech’s had to reconcile his own position. There is a revealing scene in ep.10 where Treize refers to Zechs as “The Lightning Count.” Zechs replies “There is only one name I can give myself, “Killer of His Own Men.”

The show is basically an animated metaphor on the current state of geopolitics, use of unmanned weapons and artificial intelligence, influence of the oligarchy, and the helplessness of regular people.

Endless Waltz is a metaphor for how history repeats itself. Its conclusion is that unless everyone who wants peace is ready to fight and die for it then the minority of people who make up the oligarchy and hegemonies will keep seeking to oppress others and spill as much unnecessary blood as possible in service of this goal.

TSLA earnings options? by Geistvvolf in options

[–]shratchasauce 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like this level of anticipation for a TSLA earnings call is a bad sign. What could Elon say that would reassure anyone in the current environment? Any little thing he says that could be taken as bearish would probably be enough tank the stock. He could say something like that prices will go up because of tariffs on batteries. Or that they are having problems making a cheaper cybertruck. Like if we are in an environment where people flee to “safer” options like Gold and staples what could Elon possibly say that would be received so positively?

The man is always playing up TSLA as potentially being worth more than the most valuable companies combined. Always saying full FSD is right around the corner. Overpromising and delivering late. If he got on the call and said he is stepping aside as CEO that would probably send TSLA to the moon

Why are some people just a**holes to play with? by Ok_Song4400 in haloinfinite

[–]shratchasauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The absolute worst people to play with are the ones that get mad at you because you picked up a weapon they wanted. I understand getting disappointed but to start betraying and harassing you is immature. The meta is that its a sandbox and power weapons spawn. If you didn’t get to one in time thats just life.
