That's not what he said and you know it, shut up.

My biggest issue with Epic is them very clearly doing the classic tactic of selling goods at unsustainably low prices in order to drive out competition before jacking them back up again. Their whole free game shtick can't possibly last forever and they know it.

Superman's primary villain is literally a white collar criminal that uses the system in order to stymie efforts to hold him accountable. A lot of superhero media could stand to be more critical of the police and prison system but it's a little more complicated to dismantle capitalism than it is to foil violent crime and respond to accidents and disasters.

Long overdue but still an important step forward.

Funnily enough they also endorsed Trump before the 2020 election.

You realize that corporations are smoothly pivoting from promoting climate denial to promoting climate despair, right? They want you to think that it's hopeless and that there's no point in trying, but we actually still have a chance to prevent the worst climate change outcomes. Please stop spreading this shit.

No? What the fuck? That's not how morality works. Nothing about the Soviet Union's values or how they made decisions changed, as evidenced by them continuing to engage in oppression and imperialist aggression right up until basically the day they collapsed.

You should hear what they have to say about the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. Apparently failing to stop the nazis is worse than actively assisting them in conquering and oppressing Poland.

Happy to be of service. Hopefully once we've posted enough of these tankies will stop going into the comments to spread genocide denial and authoritarian apologia.

I think this is a little too subtle to piss tankies off, you need to explicitly call them out on their favorite losers. The "The material conditions forcing Stalin to execute gay people" meme is a personal favorite of mine.

Oh god almighty I knew Spez was bad but this is beyond the fucking pale.

Well sort of the point of 196 is that you can post almost anything, the only rule is that you have to post each time before leaving. This rule isn't enforced for obvious reasons, unlike the ban against tankies.
