I get it sucks that they are walling us off from there users, however we cannot do much

Does it suck? Personally it sucks more to breathe the same air or exist in the same spaces as these libs. Let them wall themselves off, eventually they will be walled off from the vast majority of humanity that is looking on in disgust at them- and then hopefully in time that wall will close in, and those who cannot develop the human decency to leave their wretched spaces will go straight to the dustbin of history.

Agreed, liberals always are a direct enemy of the left- and not merely a "lesser evil" to fascists, but equal and with no meaningful difference from fascists (which just happen to be their mask-off honest selves).

Happy bday! :D

Kindred Spirits on the Roof is an absolutely cozy yuri VN! And for a more- interesting one I have to infinitely reccomend Seabed, which is a kinetic (linear) novel dealing with- mystery and grief to best explain it without spoilers (I think). Seabed is so absolutely lovely, I played it on the Switch and had to get it on Steam as well and- IDK, it just sticks with me even years later.

We Know the Devil is another wonderful, if short, queer VN.

Faerie's Bargain: The Price of Business is also peak goblin merchant energy and queer AF.

And Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is awesome as well, with working-class and (accurate history to what I recall? anyways touching on the ugly subjects so CW maybe) Americana IMO.

Other than that have to agree with 999... played it literally over a decade back as a kid but it was fun. I have a few of the other games mentioned here on my to-do list or wishlist.

Others on my to-do list (good enough I already own no less) among many others would include: Amelie, Heaven Will Be Mine, Scarlet Hollow, Mamiya, I was a Teenage Exocolonist, Lay a Beauty to Rest: the Darkness Peach Blossom Spring, and Milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk. And AI: the Somnium Files, which my partner really enjoyed from my library, though I've not played yet 😅

And while you probably also know them already, I gotta recommend the Ace Attorney and Monster Prom series. And while it's not quite a VN, I have to infinitely recommend Disco Elysium (but you've also probs heard of it)

Mood ^^ well we both know where we were presumably raised at, so- yeah. Like recognizes like

Honestly seems like the world's best weather to me, but then I am a creature of the cold

I know that... it might have been bilibili or something that did a literal "Marx" anime. I downloaded it but gonna look it up... here it is (The Leader)

Ah, big oof

While they certainly exist, the Communist Party of Britain thankfully is not among them: https://archive.ph/F1Ow4

The Communist Party of Britain affirmed that it supports transgender people’s right to “live equal, full and meaningful lives” after J.K. Rowling, almost as well known at this point for her hatred of trans women as for penning the mega-popular Harry Potter series, expressed tacit support for its candidates. On Saturday, Rowling encouraged her social media followers to vote Communist, a move made in response to the anti-trans feminist group For Women Scotland tweeting that a party spokesperson had told them it stood “in support of [recognizing] the nature of biological sex.” A day later, a statement was released on the party’s official X account clarifying the matter. “For avoidance of doubt, the Communist Party supports the right of trans people to medically transition, to have access to healthcare and live equal, full and meaningful lives, socially, economically and politically,” it said. “We believe that such liberation will only be possible under socialism.” Rowling’s blessing, likely now to be rescinded, came after she published an op-ed in The Times of London on Friday disavowing the Labour Party over its support for trans rights.

Agreed, it's good that people are talking about this and hopefully (even if it won't mean much) it hurts their bottom line, but it'd be more surprising if something like this wasn't the case IMO. Blizzard has a history of being ghouls, Activision is made up of even worse ghouls (the worst kinds of bootlickers in the business, probably), and then they were acquired by Microsoft to make it worse.

Honestly, I'm fine with the collective west getting high off the copium and heading straight to hell. Even if I live in it. It's hilarious really, they've fallen for their own ideology to the point they've forgotten how to build up actual productive forces.

Honestly, I agree- the dynamics in the west are such that I just plain don't have much hope here, especially in the Anglo-settler countries.

Thankfully, the global majority is not white (and the west European-descended and dominated racist bloc rejected Russia), and demography even in the cores is on our side. And thankfully the world has now caught up and will leave the barbarian hordes (not all whites, but the "international community" and specifically those who have such imperialist mentalities) in the dustbin of history, where the western imperialists will have to decide if they want to rejoin the rest of humanity.
