Yeah I neglected to add that Vander Meer’s motivation for making the anthology was specifically to try and crush the preconception of Sci-Fi this post is a part of!

Vander Meer’s Big Book of Sience Fiction has countless stories that run at odds to the sentiment in this post.

Espresso shots? Or are we talking tinier?

Yeah. Here’s hoping the feee remaster addresses movement and combat!

Is this a copypasta? To be fair, you have to have an incredibly high IQ to understand Lemmy.

And to feed the prison industrial complex, of course.

#3 is the worst. ESPECIALLY when people veil their request for aid in small talk or conciliatory ramblings.

“Our AUM is on track to surpass our goals, and we are very happy. I just want to thank the company for providing my excellent team the resources we’ve employed to set ourselves up for success”.

Chipotle is one thing. Chipotle catering is another thing entirely, and for the worse.

It also has the greatest flight model and sound design of any space game, ever. This is an objective fact.

The flight model and sound design coupled with the visuals and the scale make it irreplaceable when you look at the market’s other offerings.

It’s just a shame the games code is so spaghetti, and that the engine is so old.

All of Reddit is compromised. At this point, anti-Zionism is a bannable offense. I’ve been banned twice for “hate speech”.

Wait, why?! DC doesn’t get proper representation. Or are you joking?

In any case, to say the people of the 50 states are adequately represented is foolish.

I will not allow it. Archives of their atrocities will live on.

Sounds like it’s time to establish a viable third party. Obviously, that is easier said than done, and many would consider it impossible. But left-wing sentiments continue to grow in popularity and we must not resign ourselves to a fate without challenging it!

It’s crazy to think about what a viable third party would look like, and how it would get off the ground. It’s tragic and says a lot about the world we live in that the only way I see it happening is through virality — memes and influencers — but then, how is this campaign funded in a way that competes with the corpo vaults, and how do you get the right people onboard?

For me, it was hiking to a waterfall in Costa Rica with no food and only one bottle of water. THANK FUCK it rained; we would have been in trouble if I couldn’t have had sips of water from the leaves to stay hydrated, and if the temperature had stayed as high as it was.

His policies are good for America, but cmon… do we really need a bigger, better military? Everyone was so deep into the personal drama of his past that they forgot to criticize his policies, it seems.

Yeah, totally. That doesn’t mean we can’t / shouldn’t be aware of past actions and vehemently disavow them, especially now that he’s won! Hopefully, the next anti-establishment politician isn’t a murderer with a Nazi tattoo with intents to bolster the military and incentivize service.

I understand the historical neo-Nazi ties, but I mean, AIPAC has its fingers in practically every politician. Practically every politician is a Zionist. It follows that the US government is occupied by Zionists, no?

I also am confused by how the article you linked seemingly equates Zionism with Judaism; haven’t anti-Zionists been putting effort into emphasizing that those two things are not the same? Yes, the neo-Nazis often use ZOG and JOG interchangeably. But the recent adoptees of the term do not.

I’ve been hung up on this issue specifically for a few weeks. My belief is that the use of this term does not automatically make one an anti-Semite or a neo-Nazi, despite its history. Are you concerned about the rising use of this term radicalizing people into neo-Nazisim?

Also, as an aside, I feel like there’s some disagreement as to what Zionism means. Zionism is the advocacy for a Jewish colonial state in Palestine; my understanding is that if one supports Israel’s right to exist, they are a Zionist. Do you disagree? Last time I brought this up I got downvoted and my comprehension skills were insulted, but I mean it’s literally the first sentence of the linked article.

Please try to engage with this comment in good faith.

You’re no fun, go back to Reddit chum!

I’m asking in earnest. The credibility of your argument depends on your provision of evidence!
