It's fucking incredible how blatantly corrupt Loose Cannon is and yet nobody can do anything about it.

The absolute breakdown of congress and the naked corruption of the judicial system should kill off any notion that the founding fathers were all that great or clever, they made a system that just depends on all the key players obeying the rules without any mechanism to enforce them.

Kotor2 I'd argue is much better than kotor1. Especially if you get the restoration mods.
Even without the restoration mod I'd call it the better game. 2 gets kinda weak post Dantooine return visit, but it's not like Kotor 1's endgame isn't really weak itself (Star Forge is just genuinely an atrocious area).

Also, holy shit Bastila while you're trying to redeem her. "There's naught but a flicker of light in the SEA OF DARKNESS I'M DROWNING IN! How can I be redeemed of my sins? I am lost!" Bitch is carrying on like she has Darth Vader's rap sheet but all she's done so far is put on black clothes. Yuthura didn't angst that bad about her redemption and she probably actually killed people!

It's honestly pretty disgusting how quick this country is to latch onto the "let's be more mad at the people who are mad at injustices & inequality than about the actual injustice & inequality" argument.

It starts with right-wingers, who have always demonized these groups in regards to Vietnam, Civil Rights, Unions, police brutality (BLM most recently), anti-GWB war protestors. Our media legitimizes their narratives and propaganda, which over time leads to the general society internalizing it as well. Our media played the largest role for getting us into Iraq and continuing the GWB war machine's support.

I sadly expect this 47% to rise as the GOP and our mainstream media turns these "anti-genocide" protests into "anti-Israeli/Jew" protests.
If it's any consolation, the protestors will be remembered as being on the right side of history years later, just as they were every other time you mentioned.

Man, I find this a bit weird. Does using a chant or phrase help your cause more or less. If it doesn't help the cause of stopping a genocide, the answer is simple to not use it. It might not be logical for people to feel offended by it, but it is what it is. The genocide is more important than a phrases which is exactly why phrases and chants should be dropped and modified in the most effective way.
If changing a phrase makes your message more tolerable to some normie suburban mom who doesn't listen to news or have extensive nuanced knowledge of the Israel/Palestine issue, then do it. It's such low hanging fruit
Because the objective is NOT just to have a cease fire and then leave the Palestinians in the open-air concentration camp they're stuck in.

HHH_is_the_game posted...
You say the chant and the genocide, are linked, so it is relevant. If we are saying this chant makes Jewish people feel like you are calling for their genocide, because of the link with this phrase and a genocidal Hamas charter and statements from genocidal terrorists.... does Israel genociding Palestinians mean this is ok, especially in America, where the Jewish people here are not in Israel ? The reason it's not on topic is because having a heated debate about Israel's actions should not affect this chant, as Israel committing genocide still does not make it ok.

As somebody above said, what is the purpose of this specific chant, that even knowing it will make Jews feel like you're in return calling for THEIR genocide, you want to use it anyway?
Well the first step is them realizing that when we say an apartheid state is bad, it doesn't mean we want everyone living there to die.

You and they are doing the equivalent of suggesting "Black Lives Matter" means ONLY their lives matter.

Not denying anything. Not debating that. It doesn't matter how you feel about the israel/palestine issue, which is why Im trying not to engage in any discussion or debate about that.

Protest the genocide and apartheid, ask for a free palestine, that is fine.

but chanting this is going to turn people against your cause because Jewish people hear this and feel unsafe. This is something that the left would be very sensitive to in any other circumstance for a different minority in America.
Considering how the chant and the ongoing genocide are inextricably linked, no you don't get to say, "that's off topic, we aren't talking about that :("

And also I genuinely don't care how they feel about the chant, there's a genocide going on.

Dems have been consistently outperforming in special elections and the midterms, and those are the kind of races Dems tend to suffer at. It's gross that it looks like Biden and the Dems will go unpunished for supporting a genocide, but I think their odds are good come November. Most people understanding we're not really voting for Biden, we're voting against Trump.

The only place I see a lot of anti-Biden sentiment are lefty circles on Twitter, and the terminally online left are traditionally an unreliable to outright useless voting block because they don't seem to understand we're in a two-party system and letting Republicans win won't change that.

Its kind of like how the entire internet considers Sakura useless because by the time she did anything usefulwhich was well into Shippudennobody cared.
Sakura's a bad example: after Sasori dies she goes right back to being useless until nearly the end of the series.

The first one just isn't as good on repeat playthroughs, it depends wholly on the spectacle of introducing you to Rapture and the big twist at the end. Take both away and the game doesn't have as much. The gameplay in 1 is woefully worse than 2 and I think 2's themes hold up better.

Also, I despise Andrew Ryan as a character, so the fact that Bioshock 2 has 3 different characters that constantly mock him in their audio diaries (Sinclaire, Lamb, and Fontaine) is just lovely.

Also I kinda feel like they pushed the Doom Slayer's antics too far in Eternal, which makes him feel less impressive than in 2016.
