  • Specifically a rather famous design used by the Ukrainians during the Russian Civil War and more specifically their war of independence, while obviously not official because y’know anarchists it was wide spread enough to be a known variant. Though they also just sometimes flew a straight up black flag, though the one I want is the one with a skull and crossbones with words in Cyrillic that I cant read.

    Honestly for all my bloodthist, ya ain’t wrong. Fact of the matter is most leftists are either too chickenshit or too insular to do jack for shit. Or they get into petty and stupid squabbles effectively preventing any attempts at outreach, seriously id happily join a group of leftists who can stop fighting about theory for five fucking seconds and do something.

    I’m a Redneck who follows the old ways of being an anti corporate asshole, I really don’t care about your Soviet larp let’s just set up a communal food pantry you fuckwits. I’ve never felt more rage than when some yuppie ass twig tried fucking purity testing me via quize.


  • No problem, frankly speaking they are not given nearly as much credit despite being really solid devs since their games are relatively linear at least compared to what they are inspired by. Honestly I don’t really mind since too many CRPGs have a bit too much openness resulting in a confusing experience like their first major game Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Also they are making a Dark Herasy game which is neat, hope it has an All Guardsman Party reference.

    Also another recommendation I forgot about, Arcanum it was made by the same devs as Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines who also happened to be Interplay alumni meaning it’s got the same weird crackhead energy as Fallout 2 but instead of the Enclave being obviously based off of the Nazis you get literal 19th century steampunk eugenics. Games great 10/10 will shoot wizard with elephant gun again.


  • Too late played through those games, I require more. I’ve also played through Wasteland 1 in a deluded fevor state when I got covid.

    Also yeah I doubt we’ll ever get a NV again especially with how Bethesda seems dead set on doubling down on the camp, which is honestly a shame because for all its flaws Fallout 3 has a pretty good balance of goof and grimness. Maybe we could get something akin to that if Owlcat were to make a post apocalyptic game since they do 40k pretty well without too much grimderp encroachment. Also play Roguetrader and Wrath of the Righteous if you haven’t, real fucken solid games and don’t worry about the devs being Russian they fucked off to Cyprus early in the war.

    If you want an example of the burnout side of things look up the end of Francoist Spain and how it transitioned into modern Spain. It’s a whole mess but kinda interesting for how fascism just kinda runs out of steam and burns out after awhile, though it should be noted that Spain basically moderated at least partly because Francoist fascism was relatively utilitarian so when the project collapsed there was enough salvageable structure to just kinda moderate.

    Same but it’s mostly cause I got banned off reddit, apparently I’m not allowed to suggest death for the Saudi royal family, or the UAE, or Qatar, or Israel, or Turkey, or Russia, or China, or England, or France, or the US, or India, or Argentina… Y’know what I may actually be the problem for once… Nah it’s the authoritarian cock suckers who are the problem.



  • Or maybe maybe they don’t give a damned? It’s entirely possible for someone to think moving away from the current overly centralized and vulnerable internet based infrastructure is worth whatever damage is done. Personally I don’t want the Internet to die but frankly speaking if every major data center was wiped out and replaced with more localized entity owned ones I wouldn’t complain.










  • Hefner and his ilk are to the modern degenerates what the old German nobility was to the Nazis, both an evolution of and a contrast. Though I wouldn’t say Hefner was himself a direct cause to profligates like Epstein or Trump, he was just the last notable example of a more or less dead breed. I think I’ve seen the term paternalistic misogyny thrown around in reference to Hefner and his ilk, wherein the focus wasn’t necessarily on hating women but moreso on securing or representing a paternalistic image.

    Also I’m like 80 percent sure that modern misogynists legit hate women and aren’t just demeaning and abusive ass wipes to them.
