Everything else flowed from there.

And yeah, you hear the story about "the Voortrekkers met the Zulus coming south as they went north" is heard everywhere and it's true that the Zulu nation was expanding at the time, but there were other people there too. But colonisers love an empty land myth

The real reason South Africa isn't successful is that they weren't able to nationalise the minerals or redistribute land, two things that were in the Freedom Charter. This meant most of the country was stuck in poverty and created an incentive towards corruption thanks to foreign capital.

I can buy Ashley as the kind of person who'd hate them because they did bad things to people she knows, though (such as Rear Admiral Kahoku)

But yeah, the founders of Bioware were kinda Libertarian and it shows in a lot of their games. The Jedi in Kotor and the Council in ME are both symptoms

It'll happen when ai causes such a huge economic crash that we outlaw all technology, thus reducing energy use and greenhouse emissions at last

People mistake "these people weren't protected by their whiteness" for "these people weren't considered white"
What happens when you only see a single axis of oppression. Like yeah, Mormons were treated awfully at times. That doesn't mean they weren't white, it means being white wasn't a defence

They are very funny

But they can be made even better

Fuck you.

20 years from now, ask yourself if this level of mendacity in defence of genocide was worth it.

The Jerusalem Post, an extremely pro-Israel, anti-Palestinian publication, reported that they were told to shoot anyone of fighting age.

You: "surely the first incident's a freebie, what else do you have?"

Absolutely inhuman. You're utterly lost. I hope you find your humanity some day.

My claim is "this incident doesn't give me confidence that their rules of engagement are ones that are consistent with humanity"

I mean, was anyone sanctioned for that shooting? They were there, ostensibly, to reduce hostages. But did anyone get court-martialled for killing three??

You just know they're gonna close that loop with "biological culture", lol

Pon Farr but it's furry Spock being bitchy on chat

Oh rofl, a few posts down on your timeline, you're defending Brietbart, the publication that has put out explicitly antisemitic articles in the past.

In your defence of Israel you are openly embracing virulent antisemites, so congratulations, you're cooked

I...

Do you need there to be two??

I've heard of people who will defend anything, but are you really saying what it sounds like you're saying?

butch-fication beam

I really do wish they'd been given a chance to do DLC. We could see how they'd learned from the base game. But EA is EA and they don't do that shit.

There was also the incident in Gaza where the army shot hostages who'd escaped.

Doesn't engender much confidence in their ROE
