Which time?

There's so much. Another one I learned more about in recent years is the horrible testing on Puerto Ricans, including the sterilizations.

For anyone interested, today there are excellent graphic novels about some of these topics, like Kent State and Puerto Rico Strong. I would encourage people as these are excellent ways to learn more about these topics. Some local libraries have them sometimes.

Gotta give VP Dick his credit where due.

We can also call out shitty design and unnecessary pressure/misinformation.

This is like saying yiu can just ignore cashiers asking you for tips or donations. How about they fuck right off and STOP.

How sweet that you think the US ever had its way.

Skipping the obvious bullshit of the last 25 years, there was Anita Hill, and Rodney King, Reaganomics, Reagan racism, Nancy "I don't give a fuck about this until it affects me" Reagan, then Kent State and our military just straight up murdering our kids, Nixon, CIA killings of prominent activists, murder of a president, McCarthyism, that whole anti-immigration/racism era where white Americans rammed god and their view of patriotism in everything (people today STILL think those things were there since the beginning), union and strike busting, child labor, failed reconstruction era, more president's killed, "compromises" over fucking slavery, wannabe King Jackson not giving a shit about other human beings nor any possible check on power or anyone else's ideas, a fucking Vice President shot a guy (the first time), begging the first president to be King, and failed attempts at presidency and democracy before that (pre-constitution).

I really glossed over a lot too.

Do you hunt for all of your food and cook it from absolute scratch?

I bet you sometimes use a grocery store.

Butternuts!

 

The best way to see the hero involves kidnapping.

From Ys I Chronicles played on Steam Deck. An excellent older game and story.

 

Companies truly understand the consumer.

 

Friends and adventurers going into the unknown together. Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana for Vita.

 

Ys I Chronicles on Steam Deck. A (very important to the lore) woman that the main character rescues is fainting because she had to walk all the way back to town. What a monster he is to not carry her the entire way! Haha.

 

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana on Vita. Getting ready for a Gendarme mountaintop boss fight.

 

PS Vita game Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana. This is early into the game when you find your first castaway. Adol stumbled on her bathing in the stream.

I personally always loved the Vita graphics and the feel of the handheld, so I prefer this version of the game.

 
 

Is there a good community for sharing funny or ridiculous threads of lemmy comments and conversations?

It's an experience to be taken seriously.
