You libs are deeply unserious. How the fuck can Kamala be reasoned with? The same Copmala that said the US army needs to be the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world.

Also, THE DEMOCRATS FUNDED THE GENOCIDE.

Hitler 1 and Hitler 2 cannot be reasoned with.

What no theory does to a mf.

But seriously, you got it wrong. We would all prefer if things go nonviolent, but that is not possible.

Not only that but the post is just a joke, adventurism is not something that’s incentivized in leftist groups/movements afaik.

And your rethoric about “anyone that have more than I do” is completely wrong. The problem is not someone earning more than other people, but the bourgeoisie, the ultra rich, the ones that lobby for their interests, that buy and sponsor politicians. Anyone else is much closer to the poor than they are to the rich.

Also this has nothing to do with jealously. You should read some Marx to at least understand what you’re trying to criticize and oppose. Or at least watch some Marxist creators like Second Thought, Yugopnik and Hakim.

You really love your “them tankies” huh. Maybe you should start engaging with reality instead of this bullshit anticommunism you always do.

Hey, just a heads up, Spotube should be fixed right now when using the Youtube backend in the settings.

The Piped backend looks to still be broken tho.

That doesn’t mean that everyone should support games being forced into having all genders, or races, or include trans people. Or all books or movies should be forced to have those things.

Literally no one is being “forced” to add diversity. This is just plain ignorant.

Besides, no one bats an eye when a character is a white cis hetero man, but the moment something slightly different from the normativity appears, suddenly it is forced and unrealistic.

Fuck that, LGBT people exist and we deserve the bare minimum of at least having proper representation in the media we consume.

This is not equal to hating trans people, and anyone with some iq points realizes this. We can’t turn every creation into a vehicle for trans rights.

Keep your bullshit IQ points talking point. Put yourself on someone’s shoes for once and try to imagine what it might be like for a trans person to experience seeing a character like them. And stop with this bullshit of “making every character trans”, that’s literally not happening.

Yeah, bad timing on my end to recommend it lol. From the little I read on their GitHub, I don’t think the API change was intentional to break stuff, just so happens to do so, but I could be wrong. Hopefully it gets solved soon enough, at least there is already a pull request to that fixes it.

Yep, it can use your Spotify account if you want to play mport your playlists and doesn’t have ads because it fetches the music from YouTube.

It looks like YouTube did something to their API and a bunch of apps that use it are not working, including Piped, but some solution is being worked on.

Youtube Revanced + Spotube is where it is at

It’s a tie between The Motorcycle Diaries and Howl’s Moving Castle.

The first I found extremely touching, the second is just incredibly magical and charming.

People will always suffer. There’s a multitude of variables as to why people around the world suffer.

Let’s take a step back. Why does the majority of people suffer under capitalism? Because they have to live in a world where they don’t get good, free healthcare, don’t have a right to a house, don’t earn nearly enough to live comfortably, don’t have enough vacation, can’t afford to take a trip, don’t have time to enjoy their lives, are alienated from their work, have shitty jobs, work too much, etc, etc, etc.

That creates a necessity for charities for all the basic stuff everyone should have, but doesn’t currently have. If we give free good healthcare for everyone, the need for charities to threat people disappears. If we give everyone a home, the need for charities for homeless people, disappear.

Okay, so how about they don’t donate to charities… no more technical advancement in medicine, so people can be poor and die from disease.

What??? You do know that most breakthrough advancements doesn’t come from the private initiative right? It comes mainly from public, government expending, into research. This idea that private entities advance society is just a liberal propaganda lie that is peddled to us all the time since birth.

Charities isn’t something you enforce or eliminate. It is a free choice to give. Mandate it and you’re just legalizing theft by the authority.

I’m not talking about making charities illegal, I, like every other communist in the world, am talking about solving the issue at it’s roots, eliminating capitalism, and that requires eliminating exploitation through labor and eliminating the rich and insanely wealthy as a class.

They donate not because of the goodness in their heart, but because they get tax cuts from it.

Furthermore, what does donation really accomplish when:

1. People are still suffering, regardless of how many charities there are and how much money they get;

2. Those wealthy donors are the reason people continue poor since they are only wealthy by exploiting other people’s work.

Charities shouldn’t need to exist in the first place.

Yeah yeah, continue to spout your anti-communist propaganda. You already live in a dictatorship, you’re just to propagandized to realize it.

The only dictatorship we want is that of the proletariat, as opposed to the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. That is, a true popular democracy.

Maybe listen to what other people have to say and go read communist theory before saying anything you don’t know about.

As it stands your position is not left in any stretch of the imagination.

The Binding of Isaac with all the DLCs. I really mean it. It’s the most replayable game I ever played, not only that, but there’s tons of mods on the Steam Workshop too.

I don’t think any other roguelike comes close in just the sheer amount of things to do and see in this game. I’ve been playing on and off for years, have more than 500 hours and I still have challenges to complete, characters and items to unlock and item synergies to see.

I gotta get back into Ultrakill, I really wanted to start P-Ranking to get to the big boss fights.

Fellow Tenno comrade!! That wasn’t what pushed me away. I don’t even remember if I grinded it to be honest lol. The last time I played I think I did some of the story missions, for the last 3 years or so I have only played the story bits too.

Maybe this time I’ll stick to it for longer. Thanks for the info.

What video games have you played recently?

Recently I played a little bit of Street Fighter 6 and finally got back to playing Breath of the Wild. It’s been a while since I last played it a month or so ago, so I’m still picking up pace, but I think I’m finally ready to continue playing it, I’m still very early but every second I remember playing it have been just an absolute joy, so I hope I continue it. I have also started playing Demon’s Souls for the first time (second really, but I didn’t go far the first time). Just beat the spider boss, it’s cool so far.

What are your favorite video game genres?

Souls games. Though also honorable mention to roguelikes too. I haven’t played a bunch of them actually, but The Binding of Isaac (this one I have played A LOT) and Hades are both amazing.

Are there any live-service games, such as Fallout 76, that you’re currently playing? Anything like Helldivers 2 or any other multiplayer games?

Not really, have been a while since I played a live service game. The last one I played would be League of Legends, but not only have I been playing it less and less for the last 3 or so years, I can’t even play it anymore since Riot started using Vanguard in League because I use Linux, so fuck them.

I’m feeling the itch to start playing Warframe again tho. I’ll probably just do some of the questlines that dropped since I stopped playing. I think I stop right before before The New War came out.

That’s the thing, you identified an issue, we constantly hear bad and scary stuff about China all the time, that’s western propaganda trying to turn China into the enemy so whatever the west, mainly the US, wants to do, becomes justifiable.

You don’t need to live there to know, at least partiatly, the reality of what goes on in the country nor it’s international relations. I’m not from the US, but I do know all those things I just cited in my last comment. All you need are good sources. You can start by studying how China handles its international relations. You’ll quickly realize that China doesn’t threat, embargo or invade other countries.

If you are genuinely interested you can learn a lot by visiting Lemmygrad and Hexbear, there are communities there to ask for information, and as long as you’re wanting to learn, you will be welcomed.

Also, Xi Jinping is not insane at all like the media likes to portray him. The statement is too broad for me to tackle any specific thing, tho.

I don’t think China cares about human rights very much. And I would not be surprised if people gets killed and made to disappear if they are inconvenient.

Again, very broad statement, what human rights and what you mean by this? This probably comes from more propaganda led disinformation.

Also, China is a massive country with 1.4 billion people. Do you really think we wouldn’t have proof of people being repressed, killed and disappearing? The people there aren’t isolated from the internet, they can access beyond the restrictions easily with VPNs which are common, it would be easy to show this stuff to the rest of the world.

Protests happen all the time in China and people critique the government, just like basically any other country.

If you want the perspective of a foreigner living there, I recommend the youtube channel Felipe Durante, he speaks Portuguese but the auto translate on youtube should be good enough, at least for english.

Fucking hell. This isn’t an opinion, it’s a fact that the US is the enemy of the world. The US funds coups, destabilize, install military dictatorships, invades and bombs countries and it’s the only country in the world to drop a nuclear bomb on people, and THEY DID IT TWICE.

Stop making “wHaT iFs” in your head and actually look at the reality of what China does. It’s not even comparable.

What video games have you played recently?

Last time I think I said I was playing Lies of P, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Hollow Knight and Dark Souls III. Out of these I have finished Lies of P and started NG+, my plan is to get all achievements, but I haven’t played in a week, I hope to get back to it soon. For the others same thing, but more like 2 weeks without playing.

Other than that I got the platinum in Die in the Dungeon: Origins. Also, I started a new Bloodborne run and it’s the second time I actually play for real, I basically finished everything in the main game but the final boss. Right now I’m doing the DLC for the first time since on my first run, 4 years ago, I didn’t do it because I heard it was hard and waited until the end to do it, found out the worst way that killing the last boss throws you into NG+ automatically like DS1.

I’m also giving Chalice Dungeons a proper chance this time, since on my first playthrough I didn’t care about them. I gotta say, they are fun, albeit a bit repetitive, and the worst part is how separate it is from the rest of the game. The way Elden Ring tackled this is infinitely better by having it integrated into the world, it feels like just a detour for exploration instead of a chore like in BB.

Unfortunately I’m dumb and thought there was 6 depths instead of 5 and ended overleveling because of that, doesn’t help that the dungeons give you a shit ton of echoes, making you think that you need to keep leveling up. Right now I’m Blood Level 112 still on NG and while Dungeons get tough sometimes, the DLC is challenging, but the bosses are too easy at this level, I just beat Lady Maria first try and felt disappointed because of it. :(

I’ll have to play again to get the last ending for the platinum, so I’ll probably just stop leveling up and do NG+ on this level and see how hard the DLC is supposed to be since I should be around a good level already for doing it there.

What games coming out in 2024 are you most anticipating? Or games that are coming out sometime in the future?

Cuban indie game, Saviorless, that launched recently looks interesting, I want to give it a try sometime in the future. Other than that, Hades II, No Rest for the Wicked and Elden Ring’s DLC.

Impressive.

Thanks! I realized I phrased it a little weird, I didn’t mean run like in a roguelike because it is not that, but meant that I finished the game 7 or 8 times now lol. If you like short fast-paced sidescrollers with outrun themes and a perfect soundtrack I highly recommend it, it’s a literal gem. Also, the later plot points are inspired by the Vietnam war.

Also, “ComradeTarnished,” nice.

The shotel and hammer I mentioned is supposed to mimic the hammer and sickle, I hope the build works out lol.
