IMO he is closer to a black nationalist than a communist, and I totally have critical support for black nationalists hating whites, but it's not a communist position to me. It is what it is.

Um. Long story short he kept saying things like cracker, buckra, I know why all the hatians murdered you people. I was just trying to interact. He said black people knew stuff from birth that white leftists argue their whole life over. Being genuinely curious, I asked what that was, then he started attacking me for being white again so I linked Combat Liberalism where it says not to engage in personal attacks instead of engaging people and said he was being a liberal so blocked me.

He blocked me on twitter sadly.

Give it back to him. The damage is done and now half of twitter posts like him but not funny.

TFW when you realize neoliberal support for immigration was actually designed to keep you in the labour aristocracy.

The Houthis seem to be holding out just fine.

Apparently designed to be used in swarms.

Just to reiterate, I'm not trying to run cover for them. Obviously China has lots of conservatives even if it does have a nascent LGBTQ rights community, but this the perspective that iirc people like Carl Zha and Xiangyue have given on the topic. I don't know Chinese so I'm just going by second hand.

I've heard that the spirit of the law really isn't anti queer and the term can be translated as queer or I believe something along the lines or men that use good looks to get ahead.

As I've said, the party is being called out for using a term domestically for using an ambiguous term that could be misinpreted to attack effiminate men. Hopefully this is true and they change it.

I've followed this quite bit on twitter and the ones that tend to defend China say that the intention of the CPC was to crack down on kpop celebrity culture, which they view as unhealthy as it idolizes a sort of fake materialism.

Apparently the term translates poorly, but is also questionable and insensitive in Chinese and the party is being called out for being out of touch boomers for not finding a more PC way to say it.

I think if you have a friend that knows what they are doing it would be pretty easy to get into.

I'm thinking about just getting a unit every two months or so. Like like 30 bucks a month investment. Buying a 2k army all at once is way too much for me.

The game itself is frankly a bit complicated and my friend and I have been playing tabletop RPGs our whole life. If you are totally fresh to tabletop war games it's still going to be doable, but it will take a time investment to figure out the rules for sure.

I got about 600 points worth of guys for 150 dollars off of eBay, start collecting boxes are a similar value, but depending on the faction they can be an odd mix of units.

I had a huge amount of fun. Building the terrain was half the fun honestly. I want to do an ork themed warzone with more trees next.

I haven't actually gotten around to painting yet. My wife is going to get me paint stuff for my anniversary present. Some of them are painted because they came that way off of eBay.

We did yeah. My opponent played the space marine start collecting box and missed a bunch of his abilities, and I accidentally gave my bloat drone a heavy blight launcher and a fleshmower so he got totally wrecked, but we started to get a better feel for the rules. Excited to try again.

Lets check the track record on Marxism and racism and see how that looks.

I'm white and in 200 years someone will read my writings and brand me as a vehement anti white racist.

You have discovered the sacred art of bombing the mic.
