iirc, never played it myself, but i remember a contemporaneous chapo ep will saying they agreed to do the voices but don't think they ever got paid for it, and then i guess it was winning all these awards. Since then the art house/collective that made the game apprently became more aligned with or co-opted by capital. I think someone turned it into a more straightforward moneymaking venture now. Maybe afterward they just hire professional voice actors to rerecord so it's not a business headache.
not just that but how many were killed by the idf themselves. got 19 year olds shooting any moving car no fucking idea who's inside. hamas's mission was so obviously to capture as many hostages alive as possible.
IDK tbf Bernie didn't really go in on Sinwar. OK he said he's dead that's true.
He does call them "1200 innocent people" ok that's just false if they're an occupying military. But also he doesn't say Sinwar killed them. If ever a time for the passive "died" was called for it would be have been then, considering it seems like most non-military deaths were probably from the IDF themselves. We'll never know exact numbers. Thankfully doesn't blame the palestinian deaths on him which is peak lib genocide apologia. At least he's trying to use it to end the war but naively thinks shit like this will work. Zionists don't want an offramp bernie they are true believers. this is what zionism is.
History will show Sinwar was a hero. And history will show Bernie had a good heart but was a coward who should've broken with the Democratic Party but didn't have the guts, and always was wrong and had a blind spot about Israel and foreign policy in general.
Yes of course even for the wealthy they are going to invent whatever construct they need to justify their own position in their own head. The capital is so concentrated though so there aren't too many of that kind.
It's true not just economics anything that impedes our ability to empathize with one another will create the possibility of this. Though I think for demogogues economic stress it's the easiest to exploit and misdirect to protect from "levelling". Also geographic segregation makes it much easier to "otherise" people etc etc regardless. Look at the Brits and the Irish and they are all pale af but Brits wanted the land so they created a construct to legitimize it.
It's true. America is such a segregated society it is almost inevitable, so long as the construct of race exists. The anxiety causes even good-natured people to do awkward shit sometimes. But the elites will literally use anything they can to divide us up. Skin is one of the easiest, humans are such visual creatures and it's the biggest organ, and we are segregated anyway. The construct of race works better than the elites could have even predicted though.
Idk I think I'm cool with goofballs and old hippies who want the same things as me, basically align morally. I feel like they have a good record actually. I remember the green who ran for NJ Gov was a pastor and sheltered immigrants in his church. badass shit. They ran Ralph Nader god imagine if he had been pres. We stan a Lebanese King. Almost single-handedly big dicked it vs the car companies saving thousands of lives every year. Goated.
IDK not trying to overthink it. New poll shows Stein pulling more from Trump than Harris. No corporate money. Ending the weapons for genocide day 1. #1 with muslims same as Bernie was. She's on almost every ballot. JILL STEIN easy to write in. I say fuck it.
But also I gotta cop to being an electoralist and don't think voting is inherently bourgeouis. Basically I choose to not give up hope that it's possible for someone to win besides D and R in my lifetime cuz I'm convinced if we don't we'll never solve this shit. In the utopian society in my head that I want to fight for and live in voting can work to express democratic will. Figuring out a way for voting to work. As a species I don't think it's beyond us. And these old green party geezers get together for potlucks and fill out some forms and jump through whatever hoops they gotta to stay on the ballot each time so I'm like yeah fuck it i'm down to try to win let's try.
Tone check really appreciate PSL and the mass movement it is building. Legit af. They organize actions like all the time year round. We need that shit too to WIN. Just trying to win a just world.
economic anxiety and racism go hand in hand. blame life stresses on the other simple as. classic demagogury.
her donors would rather she lose than stop the genocide
i voted psl in 20 but why not stein this time she can get votes in just about every state
only adjacently relevent but I was reading about how most of the VPN industry is dominated by israeli/mossad-adjacent companies. Be warned comrades: https://www.mintpressnews.com/exposed-how-israeli-spies-control-your-vpn/288259/
what did they spend it on? LOTR trilogy cost 150 mil (admittedly in 2000)
she was pretty bad as an actress imo. haven't seen her in anything else. or maybe i'm just subconsciously biased cuz i heard she's a zionist?
did you see interstelli 5555 in theatres recently? shit was mint 💯
