    Like Dearborn? Where Arab Americans had been sounding alarm bells for months about how democrats were losing them? How they were upset about their brothers and sisters being blown the fuck up in Palestine and Lebanon? How leftists were vehemently warning for months that Kamala’s callous take on the middle east “Im speaking now 🤫”, could cost her the election?

    Your comment is just thinly-veiled racism. Next time, just say you blame american fascism on american Muslims.

    And now that you are reaping, you’re lashing out. In textbook liberal fashion, you’re scapegoating minorities as fascism starts to come knocking.

    If you can honestly look at the complete ineptitude of the democrat establishment and Kamala’s race, and still blame minorities, then I feel like I know which side you’re going to take when shit really starts getting volatile here.

    You seem like the type who’d start dropping N bombs if you saw a person of color driving a car you deemed too loud.

    Or maybe getting ableist as fuck if you saw a wheelchair-bound person rolling coal.

    Sure, these are shitty things to do, but body shaming is the weapon of the enemy.

    Seeing deplorable behavior doesn’t give you a free pass to body shame, be racist, ableist, or misogynistic.




  • This game was sort of before my time. Got to experience 2 on a beefy gaming PC, so I’m hyped for the zombie mode.

    As I was playing 2, I was constantly thinking to myself: “this would be a prime game to mod some zombies into”. Was surprised to hear they’d already done it in 1.

    Hopefully they ported it well.

    It is widely believed that while the Soviet Union may have produced these benefits, in the end, Soviet public ownership and planning proved to be unworkable. Otherwise, how to account for the country’s demise? Yet, when the Soviet economy was publicly owned and planned, from 1928 to 1989, it reliably expanded from year to year, except during the war years. To be clear, while capitalist economies plunged into a major depression and reliably lapsed into recessions every few years, the Soviet economy just as unfailingly did not, expanding unremittingly and always providing jobs for all
