  • Also, why are you saying “photos” of tanks? Did you actually not even know it was a video? Why chime in in the first place if you’re this ignorant about the topic? Why are your opinions so strong if you don’t know anything?

    Also

    we know this as a minimum.

    No you fucking don’t, you illiterate, you believe that because the US government told you so.

    This isn’t just a jab at China though

    Liar

    Kent state had far less casualties

    Incapable of admitting that America is worse, even in your "I criticize everyone, mannn comment you have to defend them as a lesser evil vs China.

    Fuck off, everyone here has seen brainwashed folks like you dozens of times.


  • A video of a guy standing in front of a line of tanks in which they stop, let the guy climb up to the entrance hatch and then he chats with the tank driver for a bit before leaving is your proof that actually China is as bad as American propaganda suggests?

    Have you actually watched the video in question or are you just basing your statement on what the cultural milieu that American propaganda produced led you to believe happened in that video?

  • Ever since I was a kid. When I was very young I probably would have said because they tell better more (I wouldn’t have used this word, but it’s what I would have mean) focused stories than western RPGs.

    Now I think I can be honest and say that a lot of it is nostalgia. I still have trouble replaying some of the ones I grew up on, I’ve gotten to a point where I need to be making choices in games that don’t have realtime elements at least so “select attack until the boss, then Fire 2 until out of MP, heal as needed” is kinda boring. A lot of games have been experimenting with this lately though (Octopath Traveler, Sea of Stars, Star Renegades [technically a roguelike]) which is nice to see.

    Strategy jrpgs where you move around little dudes on a map hold up better I think.








  • The edit was to edit the number of people Iranian police killed during the Jina Ahmini protests

    Nah, you’re lying. I do specifically remember you comparing official execution numbers of Iran, Saudi Arabia and America (~600, ~100, and 18, respectively) to try to make it sound like the US was less murderous. I don’t know why you’re doing this but you’re being dishonest in a way that both paints the US to look less violent than it’s foreign enemies (and it’s allies too, as long as their foreign enough. They’re certainly not as bad as Iran though, right?) and then obfuscates the fact that you’re doing that and I don’t know why a multiple year old Hexbear account would do that but I do remember the general thrust of the original comment.

    EDIT: actually I was wrong, we can confirm that you’re lying, look at this quote from GarbageShoot’s response to you

    For instance: In 2022, Iran had minimum 596 executions (likely more), Saudi Arabia had 146, the US had 18,

    Who do you vote for to put a stop to US support for the occupation of Syria? Which US politicians are you voting for to end the murderous sanctions against Cuba, Iran the DPRK and Venezuela? Which US politicians have pledged to quit murdering civilians in Yemen? Which US politicians support Palestinian human rights or at least want to quit bankrolling the open air prison they live in? Which US politicians support ending the concentration camps at our borders? Or slowing down all the refugee deportations to Latin American countries we’ve devastated with all of our “interventions?”

    Oh wait, there are none with any power or possibility of getting serious power. Actually the only one putting a stop to the bloodshed in Yemen is China.

    The fact is that you probably vote for the Democrats because you wouldn’t be shameless enough to vote for Republicans and then claim that you vote against the US’s mass murdering behavior, but the Democrats don’t have any intentions of ending any of these atrocities and if you’re claiming that they do you’re either a gullible fool or a murder-supporting liar.

    Maybe you vote Green? They might be less evil than the GOP and DNC but they will NEVER hold power so they have no impact on how evil the US is.
