It's sad, but the more you learn about history, the more you realize how full of shit their ideologies are.
Should the English be demanding historical reparations from the french? From the Italians?

I am the bone of my cutaway gag.
lacking continuity is my body, and non-linearity is my blood.
I have created over a thousand cutaway gags.
Unknown to plot.
Nor known to story.
Have withstood pain to create many cutaway gags.
Yet, those hands will never hold anything.
So as I pray, unlimited cutaway gag works.
This is worse than the time I challenged Gilgamesh to a fencing match!

The curse of Cassandra, to speak the true prophecy but everyone thinks you're crazy and ignores you.
In a lot of ways, we're already there. A lot of people are being prosecuted for the crime of being opponents of the established regime lying past the facade of elections.
One is too many. It's a line that can never be uncrossed.

It's reassuring that all we have to do to deal with the latest existential threat to the nation is vote against whoever is currently not in power.
Every time, too.

That reminds me of a lot of the isekai light novels I've been reading. The 'game worlds' in those novels aren't polished and balanced. They're explicitly unbalanced. There are things that are better than other things, and it doesn't necessarily follow common sense, you have to use learning about the world through experience and ingenuity and hard work to find something powerful. The reason the protaganists end up as overpowered as they are usually relies in large part on using ingenuity and hard work to take something that is often weak at first and turns it into something overpowered.
I guess in that sense, you can see why the souls-alike games are so popular.

Just judging from this, it sure looks like a fire and brimstone Hitler speech.
Ignore the moustache, he's just trying a new look totally unrelated to anything.

My brother has a masters in english. He now makes starvation wages badly writing for a local newspaper.
Ironically, I'm the one who wrote and published a book. Funny how that works.

I've been sad since Morrowind. It was a fine game, but Daggerfall was one of a kind in terms of having an unpredictable and massive world to really inhabit and a dead evolutionary path for gaming, and that makes me sad. Morrowind was a much more typical gaming experience, and it seems like TES has been going towards that over time, less and less to customize, more and more sanded down edges. It's not bad, but it's not exciting like that broken crashy mess was.
It's like when the Christians ran around calling everyone they didn't like Satan worshippers.
Eventually those folks just go "Sure, why not. Satan Rules! ha!"

It isn't like fallout 1 or 2, but fallout 3 really was something special when it came out. New Vegas was flawed but probably has the best story of the bethesda ones. Fallout 4 was... fine..... but when everything else (besides the turn based strategy game) is so top notch, fine isn't really acceptable. After that, it's basically a dead franchise like everything else. It's strange -- gaming has become a huge moneymaker, but nobody seems to much care for it anymore.
He's shaming us for not being fascist enough. We're the margarine of fascism. We're the diet coke of fascism. Just one calorie, not quite fascist enough.
