Can’t wait for dumb investors to get bailed out again can’t have the engines of finance halt woo woo lets go.

why are you defining imperialism as the export of capital and not, idk, the use of force against other nations?

aren’t marxist-leninists supposed to be against all empire?

Under the asumption I am most people, can you give me the definition of socialism you prefer?

Would you like to place bets on the chance of there being a 2028 election? I won’t even ask for 1:100000 odds, I’ll happily accept 1:100

I downvoted, not due to any disagreement towards the politics, but just because the memecraft on display here is abyssmal.

I dislike the framing of this, specifically:

“When we extend tolerance to those who are openly intolerant the tolerant ones end up being destroyed”

Implies that the intolerant are guarenteed victory. I vehemently disagree that this is true, and therefore would argue tolerating the bad actors is often a necessary evil to ensure that good actors are not unjustly censored. The risk of ‘another hitler’ is accepted this way of course but unless we as a society can demonstrate (if at all) that risk would be mitigated by the censorship of hate speech we have no good cause.

This just kevin-bacons all human beings into nazihood.

Software costs nothing to copy and paste, only to design.

The term “whale” just implies a big spender, it doesn’t exlude gambling addicts, dumb children or the fiscally irresponsable.

Company proceeds to be purchased by microsoft

So far the XCOM series has been pretty good at that. Each game typically has 1 big pack which feels worth the money and 1 or 2 chea[ stinkers there’s no need/push to buy

Ok, but you can’t actually isolate ‘knowledge of addictive behaviour’ into a regulatable thing without an absurd amount of government oversight i.e. examing every employees work to check they aren’t using that pesky psyschology degree.

Ok, but what would be the legal precendent there? We regulate tabacco precisely because of it’s psychological and medical effects, not because it’s bad for your wallet. This lawsuit depends upon a claim of addiction because you can’t just regulate something for annoying you.

it pokes through like a space marines pony tail

Well, at least they aren’t getting more expensive yet, it’d be werid explaining to my grandkids how I grew up in the ‘age of cheap semi-conductors’.
