You wouldn’t get social pressures as a kid? It definitely speaks a lot to an adults sensibility of stress and anxiety, but it’s not like kids never struggle to fit in. Especially when there are major changes in their lives.

There’s also a reason most of those militant groups end up with authoritarian leadership… because that capitalist class is usually bankrolling them.

Continuously adding fluff to a generic game until people start praising it as the second coming of video-game-christ?

Who knew maintaining a genocide was so cheap!

And I think it’s pretty clear I’m not. And it seems pretty clear the OP wasn’t either.

So… are you just stating random things for the fuck of it, or did you have an actual reason for bringing up a non-sequitur?

They didn’t write the title.

They… they did?

Aren’t healthcare costs higher because their last years are so much worse? It’s not like you just drop dead right after your healthiest years, you decline gradually and expensively.

It is what we make of it.

They’ve always been at war, just for the false gods instead of themselves.

Their entire point is about immigration.

Sounds less like immigration hurts and more that lack of proper support networks and lack of regulation of capitalism is causing problems.

What’s the point of having a “free market” if you only want it free in the one way you prefer, and refuse to allow any other?

What’s wrong with nags? Isn’t that a term for a rundown horse or something?

Except NATO wasn’t the aggressor.

Stop socialism, but also stop taking care of only yourself!

So don’t be socialist, but also be socialist.

And you wonder why people say you don’t make any sense.

Because they have a strong culture of “I want what I want, and everyone else can get out of the way”. It’s easier to group together when that sentiment is “I want other people to get fucked” than “I want to help better my country and my fellow citizens”. Weren’t there something like three progressive parties in the last election that, instead of forming together to form some kind of coalition, decided to go all in on themselves and split the vote in such a way that they all got fucked?

Doesn’t help that they only seem to really go for what they want when they’ve already lost it, instead of fighting for the future before things actually get bad. Plus a feeling of “If we just have a massive generic protest, we’ll get what we want!” even though they seem to keep having to do it over and over and over, with limited long-term change.

The only problem I find with 9 and 10 is it’s about five seasons worth of material crammed into two. I wanted more.
