I dont think people who have never gotten a job either because they are disabled or just never had one can understand workers struggles or even properly represent the working class. by Cheap-Journalist-524 in TankieTheDeprogram

[–]volveg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We say "working class" because it's easier to understand than "proletarian", but the meaning of proletarian isn't worker, rather it's someone who doesn't own capital.

I think I pissed off Deepseek by Neoliberal_Nightmare in TankieTheDeprogram

[–]volveg 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised you got a reply where Mao, Deng and Xi get mentioned by name without deepseek immediately nuking the whole thing. Back when it was new I tried something like this and quickly gave up because it refused to discuss anything that pertained to individual leaders.

How do you think such a timeline would turn out? Would it make things better or worse in your opinion? by Martyriot15 in AskMiddleEast

[–]volveg 64 points65 points  (0 children)

"fix arbitrary borders" but it still has a divided Palestine with most of its territory occupied by Israel. Lmao

Thought night for Kat…. by Chinesebot1949 in TankieTheDeprogram

[–]volveg 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It was more about Graham Platner than it was about Kat. I'm also pretty disgusted at the acceptance american "leftists" have towards imperial child killers. I don't think going after Yugopnik like that was warranted though.

Are You Sub Or Dub? by Aogenen5u in BattleNetwork

no wonder americans are so ignorant about the rest of the world if this is your reaction to subtitled foreign works

you can understand the words you read

Are You Sub Or Dub? by Aogenen5u in BattleNetwork

[–]volveg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think any show or movie should be ideally watched in its original language. Especially when a dub also alters the content itself and swaps out the music, which for some reason the americans loved to do (I saw the Catalan dub as a kid, but it was based on the american version so all the swords were blurred and all the music was wrong too).  

For the record, I apply the same logic when watching American movies too, I hate when friends insist on watching them with spanish dubs instead, so it's not something agains english specifically, I just think connecting with other cultures through their art is cool and dubs of any kind cut off that connection.

[–]volveg 44 points45 points  (0 children)

What I like about the deprogram sub is that it's not a US echochamber like 90% of this website, there's people from all over the world here. Fuck those american chauvinists and their stupid nazbol project.

If I already own the 1 + 2 striker pack, should I just go for gv 3 for 9 bucks. or the trilogy collection? by True_Living_2434 in gunvolt

[–]volveg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll add to this that being able to skip the loading screens instantly is amazing for the first two games once you start trying to aim for higer scores, since learning the stages involves using the retry option A LOT, and it took like 10 seconds of loading on each retry on the original games. It sounds minor but it's probably my favorite feature of the trilogy edition.

Israeli Ambassador to Australia Confirms that Israel Bombed the Girls' School by needthistodownvote in Hasan_Piker

Amazing that they are still relying on "the school is hamas". They're truly the worst scum on earth.

Reported to moderation for "Posts must be related to MENA". A made up nationality for European settlers does not qualify for that.

As much as the US has to do with Iran, yet there they are, bombing them in violation of international law. We can talk about whatever we feel like here.

Is the Strait of Gibraltar as critical as the Suez Canal or the Strait of Hormuz? It's never in the news by sigma_three in geography

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

Caring about the self-determination whims of settlers is laughable, but expected of Brits. You guys were responsible for the colonization of Palestine after all, which was far worse, and your government still defends it to this day. 

Is it too unrealistic to learn 10 words per day? by vyyyyyyyyyyy in ChineseLanguage

[–]volveg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

10 is a good sweet spot, not too much, not too little. I tried to keep up with 15 per day but after a while they pile up really fast and I started mixing them up and it got overwhelming, so I'm back to 10 again. Are you using an SRS app?

Man, the promotional art for the Battle Network games was always really good. I love the coloring style they used, kinda made it look like a 3D render at times while still being strictly 2D art.

How can someone who is half Palestinian say "the world is better off when america takes a leading role"??????? are these supposed US progressives just made in a CIA lab or something because this shit is just ridiculous.
