"oil cycle" is a good bit

If the site policy is that protective of the intellectual influence of Evangelicalism, the site should be shut down because it has lost the plot.

There is a difference between people believing retrospectively dumb shit in the past versus believing dumb shit today. I'm not going to call some 16th century natural philosopher dumb for believing in elan vital or whatever.

I thought the FF7 remake handled that pretty well

Someone should try making a classic JRPG but with the game mechanics replaced with something that's actually good

Have you played Omori? It's not rocket science, but I thought the emotion system was fun to play with.

It seems like the logical conclusion is to have no one-of-a-kind items be steal-based, just money and replaceable items, and bosses (short of the final boss) can give you early access to what will later be a normal resource or something like that.

I was referring not to the fascist coup but much later when Pinochet visited China and concluded that SWCC was of a nationalist character, unlike the communism of Mao. Sorry for being unclear.

They supported each other's territorial claims, did a failed "joint venture" to build up the fascist military, and things like that.

I think that China actually did back Pinochet, unless you want to say it doesn't count because of Deng

How can you look at what cocaine does to people and come to the conclusion "the only problem with supplying them with cocaine is exploitation in the supply chain"? Granted, cocaine isn't black tar heroin or something, but it still fucks people up. There's a substantial difference between not punishing drug users (because you obviously shouldn't) and fucking "narco communism" trafficking drugs to them. Like half the people in this reply chain are just ridiculous.

I find it wild that people take life advice from Brace, especially "be normal" when he himself is an attention-seeking cartoon character and also "being normal" in a sick society is not the way anyone should be.
