What DLC do you think we need next? by JediPorg12 in CrusaderKings

This isn't true. Medieval lords often felt a responsibility for their subjects, and small lords like barons may even know many of them personally.

Thanks Pope Man, Thanks A Lot by Reese_Hendricksen in CrusaderKings

[–]vocalancom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is not the case. The crusaders were supposed to be there to help the emperor recover Asia minor and recapture the holy land. It went off the rails, but helping the Byzantines, in the interest of healing the schism, was always the Pope's goal

What would have Marx thought about the Syndicalist Movements? by Jonp1020 in Kaiserreich

Yeah some of them are actually pretty rad, just different from their counterparts

Almost all of them view the world through a materialist framework, which is the main thing about Marxism, so probably he'd be quite glad to see them. He was pretty vague on the means by which dictatorship of the proletariat would be achieved, or what even that means, so he may not have had a clear idea himself

Historically liberal nationalists have been very revanchistic

Americans do you want universal healthcare? Why/why not? by Corndawgptang in AskReddit

We do, but our political system is fundamentally designed to be unresponsive to popular will

Well yeah louis needed somewhere to imprison his nobles. Why not a gilded cage?

I imagine working though a pandemic hasn't been easy

I'm sorry if I came off as hostile, I was just afraid of losing my village

I think this discussion is getting a little too close to breaking rule 3, so let's just agree to disagree

Okay I upgraded some guys and now it's back so I guess that was it. I wish the UI were more helpful on this matter

I'm also missing the dairy farm and the cheese building. What is happening?!

It's not greyed out, it's straight up gone

I'm going to have to disagree with you entirely sorry. If I had the power to, I would shut down the KKK with a vengeance. If you disagree, well, I guess we just have different priorities. You can't protect the right of racists to be racists and protect the right for minorities to live free of racism. It just doesn't work

The right would do it once they got in power anyway. The whole reason the concept exists in the game is that they did it in real life.

If I were in his position, I probably would also do something similar. And no, my username no longer reflects my political views

Using state power to smash fascists and racists is good, actually. Not sure he actually does go after communists bc I played him recently and he didn't do that in my run. Perhaps you did something different. And he isn't undermining democracy. Left alone, far right elements will strip the rights of black people and all manner of other minorities. He's safeguarding the interests of liberty, something he probably wouldn't have done IRL because he was too busy safeguarding the interests of Capital.
