Once again the West reminds people that "rules based order" means "you obey my rules and stop asking questions"

It would be a great future. But we must not be complacent and stop. The USSR was also projected to surpassed the empire before.

Wouldn't be surprised if all the worst stuff that people drumming on about the Saudi's world cup stuff start happening down there. They also have semi legal immigrants working for the lowest bidders with no quasm about sacrificing humans for profits.

First time hearing about this website. What do they do?

If they are at least cheap and reliable then it's at least acceptable. However, besides from boring and fugly these new monstrosity are also chocked full of proprietary parts and software that are impossible to fix and is a privacy nightmare.

Can confirm, I'm a programmer and all we do is pray to the machine spirit and hopefully our next ~~human sacrifice~~ intern will please it.

This work caught my attention a few months ago with the premise of having a 'realistic' economy based villainess type of story but as the story progress, it's getting more and more blatant with it classical liberal wish fulfillment bullshit

The original message of "I will save Japan lost generation by making the economy better" got turned into "how I exploited future knowledge to make profit for myself (and Japan) while screwing everyone else". The FMC basically just use her future knowledge to siphon America economic might to bail out Japan's economic burble while encouraging the worst aspect of America capitalist system. War profiteering, political corruption, racism, stealing personal freedom and privacy, every tricks in the book is fine as long as it's done outside of Japan.

Of course, the main character have to a be a super beautiful genius white girl from a rich and noble family that is only barely down on their luck right now cause of bad management by other people. It was totally easy to turn the ship around with future knowledge and a million dollar in seed capital. She was also super talent in singing and easily became an idol if her business fail.

To make the matter worse, to justify a world where the MC can be a blue blood noble in modern Japan, the author basically created an alt history where all other nations' agency is erased and the Allies just decided to give Japan everything they wanted in WW2 cause they surrendered earlier. Japan got to keep Manchuria, Japan got to keep the Zaibatsu, Japan beaten the Soviet and got stopped by the USA cause the Soviet got the A-bomb etc.

Finally, the books were pretty blatant about the anti communism message. The author have many characters in story repeating the same cliches "my country bad when it was under socialism, we are so rich now under capitalism, praise capitalism" or "communist stole my grandpa slaves, they were bad people".

The more I read the worse I feel so here is just my thought to easy my anger and grief of wasting time on such a piece of trash.

Waiting for that moment where three military dudes meet in the middle of a field to illegally dissolve the country for personal benefits. Only this time it's gonna be better for humanity.

The interesting thing is we are still only in the beginning of the Chip War. Give it a few more years and both occupied Korea and the Chinese rebellion province will be in a much worse situation.

Communists in video games are typically either depicted as faceless goons for target practice or evil baby killers. Have you guys found any fair and balance or at least interesting depiction of communist in video games?

Since this is a lemmy instance for ML after all. Is there any games that you think fellow comrades should checkout?
