Even if you add all the 3rd party votes to the Democrats instead Kamala would still have lost to Trump.
(Denji knows about the possession right)
I don't think he does, Asa never explained it before, Denji was probably really confused when she Tyler Durdened herself
Yoru is evil but she makes me laugh
Motivational quotes with Yoru
We keep joking about PC Gamer being a communist magazine but holy shit we've straight up got links to marxist.org in the article
Ah, I have the season pass too I just uninstalled cos I needed space on my hard drive for other stuff haha
I guess I meant more as in that Chapo's audience has moved further left than them, and are looking for more "serious" analysis.
Deprogram is more internationalist (which is good) but it also tends to draw out the class reductionist (which isn't as good).
Do you have the new Spheres of Influence dlc? Thinking of reinstalling to try it out
Based on my launch experience (some of the patches and dlc change up the game a ton):
It’s not that hard to pick up once you figure out the UI. But also most of the game is fucking around with different inputs until you get the results you want e.g. building up enough infrastructure so you can set up paper mills so you can set up universities so you can expand the intelligentsia so you can start passing liberal laws, etc. In the late game everything becomes kinda automated and you end up just kinda sitting back and enjoying your little communist utopia.
The biggest points of friction were all the “gamey” elements they put on top of the simulation, which end up with weird results like France balkanizing into a million different states after the Paris Commune or World War 1 starting because Brazil declares war on Argentina. But I dunno how fun a pure simulation would be so idk
As for the users, there's overlap between r/TheDeprogram, r/LateStageCapitalism, r/WorkersStrikeBack... and here and Lemmygrad, but I don't envy anyone who stayed on reddit cos the place is hella astroturfed right now, between Zionists and Liberal "Harm Reduction" Dems (I know I repeat myself, but still).
Yeah, I think everyone who was a fan of Chapo/Trueanon in 2016 has moved on to The Deprogram / Blowback / Democracy Now! etc.
I still tune in to Hasan and Chapo if a topic interests me, for things like movie reviews and stuff.
(Also Hasan has been blowing up in my feed because of all the Twitch drama atm)
Did they say something cringe recently?
I still listen from time to time. Not to my knowledge. Hell they're one of the handful of left media figures who've been consistently good on Palestine.
