That would even include cops

I think we had a struggle session about that, cops benefit from bourgeois extraction by protecting it, therefore they are not workers. If the cops became class conscious they would defend the bourgeoisie to their last breath because without capitalism they would have lose their way of life, i.e., bullying people. They’d have to learn to actually help them which a lot of them (probably not all of course) would find unappealing

Link or ur a lib

EU infighting is GOOD news

Batman realised that abolishing capitalism was the only way to stop crime in Gotham and became DC Engels

I regret to inform you that many g*mers do have a gf

Simply being alive in a first world country bad for the planet if you take everything into account. The whole system needs to change

I’ll join Greenpeace when they rename to Greenwar

Lmao

Hot take : Jack Black is devoid of talent and people should just stop talking about him

Well I’m not sure it’s that hot here but it certainly is on the mainstream internet

Media and politician’s sympathy for her leaving their bodies as they learn about this

Yeah delete ranked modes for sure. I’d still want to experiment with zero SBMM, like, scientifically, to see how it goes

Freud : Hmmm yes das children secx with das mum

Deleuze / Guattari : FUCK YOU FREUD [incomprehensible 400 pages long rant]

Very serious academic discipline

objectively wrong,

I wasn’t talking about the objective side, more like, you might be able to objectively win more matches against more player than them (aka better in the elo system) but your teammates will still genuinely think you’re bad at the game because you missed one thing that they might have not

Yeah I agree and I think it’s awesome, let’s all suck ass and be happy, let’s be like kids instead of role playing as an athlete with a rank and stuff

I’m critical of SBMM but not from a “I want to own noobs” point of view quite the contrary

I had a lot more fun being bad at TF2 randomly jumping in games than being bad in any SBMM games

I think skill is impossible to quantify and people will blame their mates even of their rank is ten times as high simply because when you’re bad you can totally see someone doing the right thing and think it’s literally griefing

Also trying to rank up pushes the global skill level of the game up, since everyone is training to get a >50% win rate in harder and harder environments

I wonder if MOBAS would be a bit less toxic if they never had any SBMM in the first place. Everyone would just be bad faith and flame just as normal except very few people would go beyond knowing what shit does in terms of game proficiency

Propaganda for one of the most genocidal wars the US waged

Authentic, innovative structure, elegant, evocative

Yes of course I wasn’t implying they were mutually exclusive

Good post but they really downplay the achievements of collectivisation for both Stalin and Mao. Stalin won WW2 and Mao massively increased life expectancy.

They also downplay how Kruschev really did overthrow Soviet power by abandoning class struggle and paved the way for the USSR’s illegal dissolution. This is why Deng is better, he kept the dictatorship of the proletariat stronger than ever and by using foreign capital he compensated the instability with abundance. Kruschev just dogmatically liberalised stuff and it caused supply chain problems that weren’t there during Stalin
