Their great sin was not waiting for the visual fidelity to match up to the scale of epicness they wanted. Who can argue against the epicness of this.

Sometime in the mid 2010s the cultural narrative trend went towards extensive 'these people did bad things because they were forced to and actually its the supposed good guys who are the evil ones that should be blamed for the bad actions of the bad guys.' Its a bit of a stretch, but not a very long one, to see that this was being forced into video games at the same time as all other media, particularly in order to capitalize on the 'current power order bad, bad things supposedly evil people do are just disagentic actions reacting autonomously against larger evil forces'. Put plainly, the analogy is that agency is reserved for the protaganists in-game race, and all enemies are actually victims that you are effectively mercy killing out of their tortured existence. Wait, thats slightly more fucked up the more I think about it.

Blizzard seems to be the only one that escaped most of that retardation, mainly because their writing was always trash to begin with. Look, there is ALWAYS a massively overwhelmingly evil external enemy that is responsible for everything, and its an eternally sliding scale so when this enemy gets some backstory and becomes sympathetic we immediately roll out the bigger BBEG to take the responsibility of all evil!

Outside of this, western game companies tended to have incredibly unimaginative narratives. This friendly white man turns out to be the actual evil bad guy all along! This orc is actually the poor oppressed woobie. Etc etc etc.

It speaks to the modern social attention meta that all we have to do is ctrl + f the more egregious AI tells, and add an introductory paragraph to frame the following text blocks as a first person rather than depersonalized voice.

Also, can I just point out that the actual text block is just... inane? It just looks at the percentage differences as a be all and end all effect, with zero consideration for salient factors like composition or even scale. While fine tuning is a frictional exercise, its certainly not so onerous that you need to slap this cursed golem stitched together out of wishful outcomes and deliberate ignorance onto the market.

(lets see AI slop generate THAT)

Priors here slanted opinions against the academy regardless of the legal outcome, because the only presentation the academy cares to display is sanctimonious moralizing. The only change would be whether the judiciary is viewed as equally captured.

edited to focus on a different aspect

Do western governments prioritize these other aspects because there is the presumption that the base citizenry is a hemostatically stable organism able to self regulate? Whether this assumption is wrong or not, this is a first order difference vastly different from the Asian societies I am familiar with. Here the governments view the citizenry as needing a level of government management to internal forces spiralling out of control or external forces from disrupting what is posited to be a delicate balance. Social shame is employed and even sanctioned by governments to effect this ethos, and it seems much less expensive than deploying active state resources to gently encourage irredentist antisocials back into the fold.

Heart Attack Grill is a medicare psyop to discount the NPV of future payouts. Insurance companies should go full throttle on this: if youre covered and expected to be a significantly negative coverage incident, you should be offered the choice of premiummaxxing or a hyperindulgence event. Die now, get the a discount of the expected value of your future insurance payouts given as a cash dividend so your loved ones enjoy that bet.

Monkeypox was where it became obvious gay men were just uninterested in restraining themselves. Just wrap it up became akin to genocide by gay activists claiming discrimination, then immediately after that there was endless concerns about how gay men were being unfairly stigmatized for spreading monkeypox. Of course they should be stigmatized! They were barebacking against medical directive, complaining about being discriminated against and then demanding the external public make restitution foe the hurt feelings. Its pure moral hazard combined with crybullying to externalize responsibility and liability.

The narrative of the 90s were that gay kids were just normal people that happened to like the same gender. Sometime in the 2010s this got morphed into gays being a protected class, and now the chemsex degenerates have decided to lump their irresponsibility under the ambit of kink. If NAMBLA wasn't annihilated in the 80s it would be the vanguard of pedophilia, and it would be homophobic to not let them cavort with our children.

The funniest aspect of all this is the slowly growing realization among the Brahmins -actual subcontinental Brahmins, not just crunchy lefties - that being imported en masse to the USA by visa abuse does not mean acceptance of their presence. The Brahmins have thought themselves so smart, speaking ill of other minorities while sucking up to the majority race, and at the same time turning around to call the majority race idiots who need the guidance of the Brahmins. Turns out its not that the Brahmins needed better shudras to improve their loka, its that the Brahmins weren't entitled to prosperity to begin with.

AMERICA has not proven trustworthy? Gazans waited one negative second before starting the Hamas Fatah civil war, where gazans cheered gleefully as Fatah (and Hamas) members were thrown off rooftops and shot in the streets. Israel tried a Singapore On The Med model with the gilded cage for Gaza following the 2005 pullout. All that happened was the Gazans tore down the infrastructure left behind for them, deliberately impoverished themselves to demand greater aid from externals, and plotted to slaughter the few jews who sought to help them by providing employment. If Hamas rolled through and said 'we are going to Tel Aviv to execute Netanyahu' half the Israelis might have closed the highways for Hamas. Instead Hamas wanted roads paved with blood.

Gaza is Hamas, Hamas is Gaza. A good deal is them ruling over a pile of dead enemies, even as the list of enemies grows ever longer and stronger with each passing day. Left to their own devices the BEST case scenario for Gaza is authoritarian strongman rule by a western ally who had the funds and thr institutional backing to keep dissident elements in check. Left to their own devices and Gaza will implode like Yemen, with the only question being how many neighbors it tries to take out before fizzling out.

Didnt /r/drama go kind of nuts in 2014? I used to love that place as a lolcow farm that dunked on screeching libs but it went through several cultural changes and purges that its become just a meaner version of leftist subreddits now. Still a bit funny, but more monotonous

All I fucking see from people who voted for and supported Trump is euphoric glee that he's doing exactly what he said he would do. After being lied to and lead along by controlled opposition our entire lifetimes, and maybe the entire lifetimes of our parents too, a guy is actually making good on all the promises he, and the Republican party broadly, has made for decades

Personally I think this speaks to the larger conceit among liberals when it comes to their Message: Liberals are automatically right, and everyone who does not heed the wisdom of our words is just too stupid to understand what we are saying so we need to say it louder.

At no point in all this political discussion have I seen liberals consider that maybe their words have been heard and understood and have been found wanting. That the foundational reality the liberals aim at creating is not one that people want to live in, and that the path to get to that reality is even more broken than the end result. A nanny state run by Sorkins fantasy West Wing archetypes is great to a liberal, but when I watch that show I see careerist egoists unable to resist sticking their grubby fingers in everything they don't even have the interest to understand.

If the CIA was competent enough it'd set up its own network of shell companies or charities to just continue the work of infiltrating nations and cultivating domestic assets. Funneling everything through USAID or some other US centric organization just seems like a forced sharing of the feeding trough with other pigs that exist just to be the first up for slaughter when the butchering season begins. Actually once I say it that way it makes sense that the CIA would have a vast number of friendly organizations embedded in the bureaucracy that would be first on the chopping block. Being the biggest baddest hog in the swamp is a survival strategy, but so is being one step faster than the clueless pigs feasting next ro you.

I really wish to ask when the vetting process failed such that the vetters were these ideologues to begin with. Is it just that everyone with capability and independent thought left the US civil service because it is a bloated swamp that neither rewards financially or emotionally unless one has the specific temperament? Like I've dealt with other civil services before, and petty power politics and paper pushing bureaucratics protecting their iron rice bowls are common, but never have I encountered a bureaucrat whose mission is to destroy the nation they say they serve. Every functionary will claim that they are True American Patriots, but only the barest gust of wind is necessary to uncover the reality that they wish to create a New America that is in their preferred image instead of preserving an old or existing version of America. At least the corrupt bureaucrats here in Southeast Asia don't pretend to have the interests of the state at heart when they suggestively indicate which midget bar has the most discrete hostesses.

I keep telling all my Israeli buddies that they should just Migrant Fleet around the world for 2 years. Bury Jerusalem in a giant gelatinous cube to preserve it, then fuck off on a 2 year booze cruise (after buying shares in Carnival Cruise of course). They can return to the holy land thoroughly depopulated after the Arabs have killed each other endlessly to claim the spoils, and its not like the land itself there was worth that much to begin with.

Identifying and removing bad performers would be ok if its only white men who get affected. When it turns out, inevitably, that the performance distribution is heterogenous in the opposite direction of liberal platitudes, then a straightforward 'cut the deadwood' turns into 'racist federal employment fires blacks and trans workers'. We are at least approaching the point where this concern is less important than 'social cohesion' because even with these sinecures in place there is little social cohesion, so how much worse can things get.

One thing liberals are very good at is definitional warfare and data abuse. Redefine genocide to include cultural appropriation, racism to include every instance of disparate outcome by subconscious bigotry, poverty to include not having an apartment in a T1 city. Include low-crime Nigerians Chinese and Indians in the denominator of 'migrants' to make it seem like deporting Salvadoreans and Guatamalans is increasing the net crime rate of USA, include sexting into the definition of child sexual abuse so that White British remain the greatest numerator of child sexual abuse perpetuators so as to hide the dominance of Pakistanis committing group anal rape, exclude Asians and now Latinos from the definition of Minority to keep claiming that systemic racism is still a Thing.

By changing the presentation of reality the liberals keep justifying why even MORE help must be given for their interpretation, as opposed to what you see with your own lying eyes. To trust your own eyes, your own judgment, your own experience, is to deny the reality imposed by your intellectual betters.

There has been a new reality based adjustment away from liberal orthodoxies. Definitional warfare and rights lawfare need to hold the tough men with guns back from exercising their own agency. Turns out your fancy human rights law paper means nothing if your enforcement authorities decide to deport first and ask never.

Im just halfassing the different terms. Point is that irreligious PMC practice their interpretation of pseudoreligion apart from the people that practice the religion to begin sith.

Violence from minorities also works because progressivism has paralyzed the threat response mechanisms. As long as one party can accumulate points in the progressive stack, it is forbidden to actually address invalidities of the presented positions. So long as progressives hold levers of power, especially mindspace discourse via the universities and its agents of transmission in the media, there will be no way to communicate objections to stack abusers. Note that as we can see with Big Techs shift that many modern 'conservatives', and I dare say a fair few on this board, are ex-progressives who paused too long at the line for the koolaid and realized something eas going wrong. This means that antiprogressives who are proximate to the levers of power progressives are in charge of are naturally a subset of progressives, and in a time weighted distribution will never have enough numbers to stop the insanity.

The.insanity of the presented beliefs honestly is one of the more baffling aspects of Educated Cultists. A similar thing can be seen in girls who get REALLY into witchcraft and astrology, delving deep into objectively insane woo like your Third Eye being opened to the Aura around you and how shamanistic spirituality reconnects one to the astral plane. It is way too easy to attribute this to irreligiosity among the educated finding another conceptual escape valve, and the common thing I notice is that the Educated who buy into this woo never ever hang out with the original lower class practitioners of the art. No wiccan feminist ever speaks with an actual Louisiana or Haitian Voodoo witch doctor, no dharmic spiritualist ever prays at a shrine next to the old grandma burning hell notes, no Rajneesee actually interacted with ayurvedic doctor.

Technobabble is indistinguishable from religious invocations. Chanting to the a Machine God is silly to us because the recognizable words we understand are mutated, but stringing technological sounding terms together into a single compound word like german gone wild is exactly that. Dressing up a wrong scientific concept, like 90% of your brain is unused or biohacking through blood transfusions, is just misreading of reality, like sacrificing virgins on the solstice for a good harvest.

What happens when your data goes against foundational principles of your guiding vision? Thats where liberals fail. Using data we can better ensure that blacks are not actively or passively discriminated against in employment, education and law enforcement availability, thus bringing their achievements back up.

Well, turns out that all the free grade 1-12 tuition for URM (another phrase tortured into existence to exclude Asians) doesn't work if they don'y show up at all. DEI hiring initiatives to hire more black candidates of equal capability to white ones don't work when the black candidates simply don't exist. Restorative justice and sentencing reform doesn't work when blacks fundamentally commit more crime to begin with.

Same thing with homelessness and drug addiction and crime. Housing first won't work if the bottom 3% of permanent homeless trash all housing offered continually and just act as violent nutcases to drive out neighbors. Harm reduction does not lead junkies into care services just because they feel 'loved and seen'. Restorative justice (again) doesn't work when the light sentences just keep criminals on the street to reoffend endlessly.

Technocrats adjust their principles to fit the reality of data. Liberals pretending to be technocrats adjust data to fit their preferred reality. Scratch a liberal and a p-hacker appears. The continuation of such p-hacking despite repeated failures is what convinces me that liberals are captured: they hate the reality that creates this data outcome in the first place and actively strive to destroy the obstacles to their preferred reality. If blacks can't be assed to go into special ed programs, then just get rid of them entirely.

Edit: get rid of the special program, I mean.

That this was always possible, that deporting criminal migrants is simply a matter of pushing a fucking button saying 'do your jobs like what you joined the ICE to do" is what infuriates this entire conversation about migration so much. Democrats instated a sense of fatalism (the migrants will come anyways so theres nothing we can do to stop them) and then crippled the ICE to stop even border deportations, much less deportations in the interior, because there was no point anyways. Then the Democrats expanded asylum to include feeling sad, so every fucking border trekker was saying the same thing about gangs. Only after that was in place, where aspiring migrants see a big sign above the USA saying 'come over we wont stop you and we will stop ourselves from stopping you', did the Democrats turn around and say 'yup this is our reality now diversity is such our strength isnt it look at the fruit pickers and ignore the literal cartels claiming asylum'.

That Trump comes in and in less than a week starts deporting criminals that have decidedly negative expected value to the US population just makes the Democrat failure that much worse. If Trump can strike a deal where Bukele or Meliei accept unrepatriable US illegals for cash and then leaves the illegals to the tender mercies of those 2 leaders, the Democrats will be lost in the political wilderness for at least 3 cycles.

I think normies dont recognize the botting, or at least are ok with it as a brief respite. I certainly don't play enough to recognize meta compositions or optimal states of play, and getting botted only marginally affects my already poor performance because I'm just jumping around and spinning the camera to get the best shots of ass.

Humiliate the old regime and allowing a new one to root itself in place. The Japanese killed millions here in Asia, with two branches of my family snuffed out directly, but after a few apologies the Japanese moved along and got on with their own lives, letting the remembrance be for the smackdown they received for being such dicks as opposed to grovelling for eternal forgiveness. In turn the Japanese are able to adapt as the situation changes and consider abandoning pacifism in the face of Chinese militarism and ignore complaints from activists seeking to use Japan as a punching bag. I extract penance from the Japanese by not paying for my JAV, which I'm sure my ancestors smile upon me for.

Bot mode basically is the game acknowledging that you suck, and the game gives a few wins to keep the player presumably happy and not frustrated at sucking so hard. Bad for griefers who suck for the sake of sucking, or failsons with an overinflated sense of their own power level, but great for normies who feel emotionally satisfied enough to continue playing and provide free meme points once they return to Jeffs suckhole.
