Things that were once revolutionary or novel for the time can only exist in that space for so long. The elements that worked can feel mundane and like a trope by our modern standards. The mistakes will also be only more highlighted over time as well.

Obviously that’s just a generality. Even if those games aren’t as good, it doesn’t mean they aren’t still good and enjoyable.

Right, they act the way they do under specific material conditions and environments. Those can change.

If you just looked at prisoners and concluded humans are highly prone to violence, you would be missing the point.

It’s capitalism, not humans exactly.

Worse? Maybe. Probably similar to this administration.

Nukes? Fuck no lmao.

I mean, we aren’t fucking with North Korea, Russia, or China are we? They’ve all been demonized about as much as Iran. Why not them?

(It’s nukes, partly Israel being a death cult right now but mostly the nukes.)

Iran has been more rational and restrained than Israel and the US. I don’t know what the fuck you’re on about.

They get to control a resource rich region AND bomb Muslims and/or brown people. Win / win for the sickest fucks among us.

You mean the country currently starving 2 million people for the crime of their ethnicity and the one attacking sovereign nations to keep their parliament together?

Yes, Death cults like Israel shouldn’t have nukes.

Build the nuke already please. (For mutually assured destruction reasons so Israel can fuck right off)

Great, So you’ll join me in having an anti-imperialist stance so we don’t foment the most reactionary elements of a country.

While reactionary, it is the force that was resisting the occupation. Im sure the people that prefer them to a foreign occupier is higher than you think.

The Irish are so fucking sick.

I’m pretty sure that’s most the Arab world and plenty of others outside of western influence. Iran too of course.

Maybe the Afghanis didn’t want to be a vassal state to the country that was invading them for 20 fucking years.

Crazy they don’t yearn for the boot.

God I hate these psuedo intellectual racist cunts.

Turns out, the people saying the US is the great Satan had a point.

Almost like peaceful protests can be ignored by capital owners or politicians.

Also worth noting, they’re against Netanyahu mostly just because he hasn’t been prioritizing the hostages and rather going Hannibal directive instead.

I specified the publication but here’s a link (pay walled) https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-05-28/ty-article-magazine/.premium/yes-to-transfer-82-of-jewish-israelis-back-expelling-gazans/00000197-12a4-df22-a9d7-9ef6af930000

Half are in favor of killing all the Gazan Palestinians and something like 80-90% are down with fully ethnically cleansing Gaza (source haaretz). I could also drag out the poll from about a year ago where the vast majority of Israelis agreed that the force used in Gaza was “just right” or “not enough”.

If it makes you feel any better, it’s only because they’ve forcibly had regime changes and they aren’t democratic precisely because the people are generally not on board with this shit.
