It's a moralist in the colloquial, pejorative sense

I'm gonna sound basic, but dragons. Seems like almost all cultures have come up with their own ideas of dragons, from vile monsters to wise sages. Often with fantastical powers, like fire breathing and the like.

I especially like stories with dragons as villains, but working off some humanly inscrutable motivation, just intelligent, powerful beings seeing us as ants.

Also, dragon-adjacent creatures like wyverns, wyrms, drakes and others, there's a lot of diversity in dragon folklore.

Listening to a song I remembered from years ago, I heard this sample (timestamp just before it starts): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQu1TBIMSSk&t=191s

I recognized it as the same one that was used in the soundtrack for the video game Bastion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPWmrwF4MOI&t=25s

I might have bad ears but to me it sounds like the exact same sound. If so, does anybody know where it comes from originally?

The voter turnout was like 40-50%. That means over half of the country is evil tankies.

The revolution is imminent!

I live in sweden and the divide on Greta is hilarious. On one hand you have reactionaries who STILL put stickers like "fuck you greta!" on their shitty cars, on the other you have lib climate activists who seem downright scared of her more based activism and talk about her "having gone too far" in hushed voices. Only ppl I've met that like her now are either MLs or hardcore anarchists. Imagine if she would join a marxist org

I mean actual proper research, not CIA propaganda. I want to learn what truly was censored, both when it comes to politics and culture like books or film, and actual material reasons why.

Preferably stuff that destroys the typical Western bullshit about no freeze peach lol, I want to put it against Western censhorship and propaganda.

I saw an LW thread about China yesterday and everytime somebody said something even mildly positive about China, some smuglord posted "two questions: is the Tiananmen massacre real and are Uyghurs genocided?" and when people discarded the questions as irrelevant, they posted some le epic reddit debate win reply. LW is worse than reddit I swear to god lol

Yeah I bet an isolationist country targeted by probably the highest levels of atrocity propaganda in the world is spending lots of effort on tiktok videos to get a few disorganised supporters in the west which would materially amount to nothing even if it were true

He is well known for liking the 4 B's: Bullets, Blood, Babes and Bombs.

And this show is clearly bombing

I literally had a coworker from Poland who went "soviets were so evil, if Hitler won the war, polish ppl would be better off". He would not listen to me saying that if hitler won then polish people would simply not be, at all.

Although it probably didn't help that I opened with "look, you don't need to like Stalin to understand..."

strong blow to Amerikkkan imperialism

I wish. Still, uncritical support to comrade moneybags

This is probably the worst comment in there, I don't even know where to start.

Dude both actually believes that Trump would give him the beautiful prosperous white ethnostate he'd enjoy, and thinks he's some huge rebellious hero for turning it down. This is so amazingly and unintentionally funny

People from other countries scared of alt right rising there due to Trump

lmao I live in one of those countries and our fascists are 100% home grown, thank you very much. Amerikkkan exceptionalism at its absolute worst, we've had this shit here way before Trump was anything more than a weirdo celebrity

Also Bidens policy is already brutalizing leftists lol

This is not a dunk or a serious post either. I just figured I can post this cutie with minimal pushback bc he is just so beautiful. Meet Bun the rat.

Sadly he died almost a year ago, but he was extremely lovely and kind. Say something nice (or mice) about him, or share your (nice) rodent stories

Lmao I thought the title was just the OP dunking on Forbes, but it's the actual article title, this is beyond parody

Oh, she probably knew from the beginning but once he set out on a 5-year plan, there was no backing out
