That thread perfectly highlights why the Dems were doomed to fail. They just cannot stop ripping into each other, and blaming everyone but themselves for their disastrous fuck ups. Trump wouldn’t have stood a chance if the Dems had had a strong leadership and a clear set of policies for working class voters.

noodlesoup's too young for this, but I'd like if wise elders like Nepenthe, B-Dubs, etc. would say if they wish they hadn't voted for Biden and the Democrats in 2020. All their Israel positions were well known then.

Then I started thinking about if the situation applied to me, as a Swede who can choose tons of different parties without it ever "giving a vote" to the opposition. If I were told I had to vote for the moderates or any of the centrist parties to stop the nationalist party from winning, instead of voting for the leftist party, I just wouldn't be able to do it.
I understand that tensions and emotions are running high, but voting for the lesser evil just isn't something I can tell someone to do.
Who is this little pissbaby. Not even voting over something as serious as bombing Gaza and he literally can't bring himself to vote for moderates
Noodlesoup's arrest for the Palestinian cause isn't the shield it once was and he's clinging on for dear life to it or else his arrest would have been for nothing but performative reasons.

Actually, knowing Nepenthe's stance on apologies and reparations (B-Dubs we know is an unrepentant racist and transphobe), I'm now wondering something. What has she done to stop the genocide she caused by voting for Biden and the Democrats in 2020? Has she apologized to Palestinians, even if only those on Era, for her actions causing the genocide? Or is this just a "I promise to not cause any more genocides in the future" type of thing?
Does Jason Schreier pay ERA staff to hype him? Dude just made a very unfunny tweet about DEI, Mario Kart and Tariffs and Transistor thinks is hilarious.

You'd think Nola would be the expert on the term given their post history.
Why are these genocide megaphoners always fucking broke? What's more helpful to struggling people? Donating money to their relief efforts or going on the internet and saying "I ain't votin' for shit." This isn't rocket science.

However, I did spend like 5 minutes thinking to myself if Nintendo came out today after announcing the $450/$500 price and said specifically because of changes due to the tariffs they were increasing the price of the Switch 2 to $550 and $629 and physical games like Mario Kart would be $100 that this could be a point that the stupidity of the moment would finally(!) break through to a not insignificant amount of people.
Basically, Nintendo this is your moment to change the world.

GREAT FUCKING NEWS!
Quote:There's just one catch.
This news comes from the newsletter of Udon Comics. Udon, you will recall, is the company that employs Matt Moylan as Director of Publishing. Matt Moylan has a long history of speaking out against progressive causes, targeting minorities, writing inflammatory things on Twitter, and generally inciting rage and being an alt-right troll on social media. Recently, he flamed out and deleted his Twitter after being called out too many times for his behavior.
Udon is also the current holder of the Mega Man license. They are going to publish an upcoming mini-series called Mega Man Legacy focusing on different eras of the classic Mega Man continuity, from the Classic era to the Legends era. Archie Mega Man scribe returns to write a story focusing on the Zero era, while Moylan himself is handling the issue focusing on the ZX era.
That is not a catch, that is you being a retard.
Who gives a shit about the dude political opinions, cunt.
Archie MegaMan was excellent, go fuck yourself for thinking I care about your shit.

They're really mad that this proves that the original high prices are just Nintendo being greedy and has nothing to do with the tariffs
Quote:Quote:It might get even worse because this whole thing proved Nintendo was not factoring in potential tariffs into their prices. They were just high.
No it fucking doesn't.
Like how did that original assumption even make sense when the games are expensive everywhere else in the world too?
